was robbery, go out Of his way to murder
the entire family, thus?''

Sad News.

Mr.. j. F. Eckardt is q art-broken
man. The Malulani brought the
news this afternoon that his little
three-year-old boy, who, with his
mother was visiting at Pahala, Ha-
waii, has disappeared, and that in
spite Of three days search no trace
of the little boy has been found.
Mr.. Eckardts family left for Kau,
after the wedding of his eldest
daughter, Angela ", to Mr.. Limo,
Of Pahala plantation. On Monday
last the little boy left the house
to play. He entered the vast
oane-felds Of the plantation, and
since then he has disappeared.
1t is yet to be hoped that the
child, who is very bright boy, may
have passed through the intricate
forest of cane, and found his way
into open land. But alasl the pro-
liability ia that he got tangled up in
the dense mass of cane, laid down tc
sleep and lost himself into the
thicket whence his cry never would
be heard.
