and occupied by an old uncle IF mine. not so

seventy-fVe years ago. The shop was quite a

old gun barrel. and stuck the breech end into
the red hot forge, thinking perhaps by heating
he might get the breechpin out AS ii became

Hunting the slipper.


Hunting the slipper.
Akamu, a native sailor, is un-
der arrest at the police station
charged with larceny in the sec
ond degree by stealing a coat
from another sailor, Kamnbi,
who, in turn, is alleged to have
stolen it from Healani. The coat
is not of many colors but is plain
black and fits the three men eual
ly as well.
Kamaki is sailor on the Maui
ma Loa and Healapi is from the
Kauai. Kamaki took the coat one
dark night and, after wearing it
several times, found that it had
disappeared. Kamaki, on being
threatened with arrest, agreed to
put up in money the value of the
coat and to return the trousers he
had stolen at the same time. This
was agreed upon and the matter
ended for Kamaki. However, as
soon as Akamu was found with
the coat, his arrest was ordered.

4 NEW TRICK
 OF FOOTPADS How Thugs Ply Thei NefariOuS Trade in
 Dark Streets. Gas Lamps Extinguished That Their Purpose May Be
 Accomplished. Police Notified and a Strict Watch Will Be Kept for Late
 Pedestrians.

For the past few nights it has been noticed that the street gas lamps have been extinguished during the hours between l and 8 o'clock in the morn ing by unknown parties. This has espe- cially been the case on Ellis street, be- tween Jones and Larkin, where many holdups and robberies have lately taken place. A milkman whose name is kept secret has complained of many scares within the past few nights, and he claimed to have witnessed a daring attempt at burglary the night previous to his report.
 Complaints have also been heard from Haight street, in the district near Octavia, and the police are in a quan- dary to account for the lights going out, although it is thought desperate characters do the act, that their plum dering and robbery may be made the easier thereby.
 It is reported that the past few hold ups in those districts have been ac- complished where no street lamps burned, and the reason for the fact is about becoming plain to the Chief of Police and detectives at the City Hall Just where the criminals who are still at large will stop is a question for the police to determine, but the general public will undoubtedly be kept in a nervous strain during the determina- tion.

 The further examination was then con- tinued till next Tuesday. Secret Agent Harris was an interested listener to the proceedings.

E. w. BUSHNELL WINS.
He Will Secure Payment From the RentoD Coal Company.

A decision rendered by the Supreme Court yesterday will be of some interest to people well known in this city and Ala meda County. E. w. Bushnell was for eight years the president of the Benton Coal Company, of which A. N. Simpson was one of the largest shareholders. When he took that position he was to have salary of $50 per month Evident ly not being in straitened circum- stances MT. Bushnell did not draw down his salary regularly, and in this way a large sum of money accumulated to his credit. When the time came for the final settlement there was a dispute between him and MT. Simpson, who claimed that under private arrangement between himself and the president the latter was only to receive S100 per month and not $150. as at first agreed
 Mir. Bushnell sued MT. Simpson and others for the sum of $500. money which he had left undrawn in the hands of the company, figuring at the rate of s15O per month. He won in the Superior Court and the Judgment was upheld by the higher court, the justices claiming that the books do not show any record of the $1C0 per month proposition.
