BLAINE'S NOSE BUMPED.
Interesting Story Told by the Cos
sips of Honolulu.

sips of Honolulu.
HONOLULU, Aug. ii. via San Francisco
CAL, Aug. 21.-The gossips of Honolulu are
having much to say over the adventures Of
James G. Blaine Jr., while here on his way
to Manila. 1t is alleged that Blaine fell a
victim to the attractions of Hawaiian beau
ty and ran against an angry husband. At any
rate, he appeared at the Pacific club and
other public places during his last day here
with court plaster on his nose. The story
goes that the occasion for the plaster was
as follows:
Mr.. Blaine no doubt had often heard of
the lulan and the hula-hua Dance and must
needs visit such attractions. lulan con-
sists Of feast of dog fattened on raw fish
and many other dishes in the native stvle.
The banquet is on the ground and eaten
with the fingers. A dog bone Is passed
around. If you refuse to take bite from
this bone you give offense.
At the dance some one suggested that there
was nothing to drink. Blaine handed a
young native $40 gold coin. The young
gave no change. A pretty half-caste young
woman told Blaine that the young man had
paid only 81 for the drinks. Blaine said he
didn't care.
While the girls had been accustomed 10 lib
crafty, they thought this extraordinary and
began to crowd around Blaine When he
drew the pretty Mrs. Aona close to his brass
buttons, her husband, q full-blooded Ha-
waiian, was enraged and struck out from
the shoulder in the most furious manner
Blaine's nose and face were badly bruised
He is now well on his way to Manila for
new conduests.
