CHINESE LOSES HIS QUEUE.
Disaster Occurs in a New Years Row
at HamakuapOkO.


HAMAKUAPOKO, February 1S.-
Hamakuapoko experienced a Chinese
row on Sunday night last. Three pO-
licemen made a raid on some gamblers,
catching about six, when their cour-
trymen gathered about to liberate
them.
Whatever the true story of the af
fair is, the policemen ran, the Chinese
mob after them. The mob supposing
a policeman to have hid in a Portu-
guese house, attacked it with clubs
and hoes. The Portuguese occupant
came out with a knife, and in the
mele cut a Chnaman very severely
across the head, after which the mob
disappeared. The policeman, it ap
pears, was not in the house, but the
Chinese went for the Portuguese, to
see for themselves. The injured man
bled profusely, but was not very seri-
ously hurt, with the exception of the
loss of his queue, which was COM
pletely severed.
The next day two of the gamblers
were arrested, and forfeited their bail.
Had the Chinese not been filled with
doubtless not have occurred.
The Chinese new year was observed
rather more quietly than usual here,
though there was much visiting, enter
tanning and fire crackers.
The Sunday night row and several
fights, brought out in court, resulted
from it, but the Chinese say it was
rather an off year

Early today the monitor Monadnock,
and the cruiser Charleston began drop
ping shells into the rebel camp between
Caloocan and Malabon.
The enemy's sharpshooters in the
jungle on the American left had been
particularly annoying since daylight, to
the Third artillery which finally drove
the rebels out of the jungle at nOon In
the meantime a few more of our men
were wounded.
The loss of the enemy is estimated
at 40 killed and wounded, to one Anne
rican killed and wounded.
The heat today knocked out many
Americans. and especially in the marsh
lands north of Malabon, where the
Kansas regiment was stationed. Full
ly a score of them were taken to the
hospital.
Privates Harley and Fitch of the
| Thirteenth Minnesota regiment were
both wounded in the legs by the same
bullet, and Private Mitchell, Company
b, of the Kansas regiment, while as
sisting a couple of men to the rear,
was shot in the left arm.

A NATURAL RESULT.

With the progress Honolulu is max
ing in business way, it is but natur-
al that time would bring first class

with all help white, and first class in
every particular
In order that such an enterprise may
continued and be successful, it is nee
essary that business men and other
white residents of Honolulu should
give it liberal patronage.
At a very great expense responsible
parties have leased and fitted up the
double rooms of the Home Bakery on
Fort street and will undertake to give
Honolulu a first class cafe in every
particular. They open for breakfast
tomorrow morning, which is served on
the short order plan from a. m, and
continuing until midnight A business
mems lunch is served from IL a. m.
until p. IN. for % cents, and a four
course dinner from to o'clock p. m.
for so cents.
