But the record of bloodshed was
not finished. At luau on Liliha
street yesterday morning another
tragedy occurred. Two foreigners,
unknown here and as far as the
police know, chad men" and conse-
quently in the employ OF the Gov
eminent as guards, entered house
on Liliha street without invitation
and succeeded in making themselves
obnoxious. Both were armed. One
with an open dagger and the other
with a weapon known in Europe as
a life preserver when carried by an
officer aud as ''sandbsg" when car
ried by the carrion which avoid the
officers.
One OF the men took hand in a
"small game" and steered clear Of
the row which occurred between his
"pal" and the natives. His name
was f. D. Haskell, and this morning
he was sent to Jail for four months
at hard labor for carrying deadly
weapon, The other man whose name
is Charles Downing insulted wo-
men at the house he had entered and,
when being elected, drew his muir
derous knife inaicting terrible
wounds on three Hawaiians, one OF
whom is expected to die. Downing
is in Jail and no charge will be made
against him until the condition of
his victims is decided.

MURDERoUs WORK.
Knife wielders In Our Midst on the
War Path.


War Path.
On King street near the corner OF
Nuuanu street at $50 p. m. on
Saturday, Togo Jackson was MUIR
dered and his brother-in-law Isaac
Cockett seriously wounded by Will
liam Ester, a negro, recently arrived
here. Ester and jackson had dis
pute in a saloon which ended in
blows being exchanged. jackson
followed the niger into a street
where further alteration took
place resulting in the darkey stab
bling Jackson to the heart and kill
ing him. Cockett rushed to the assist
ance of his brother.in -law and re.
ceived serious stab in his abdomen.
The police officer on duty on the
beat arrived on the scene and after
knocking the knife out of the hand
OF Ester arrested him aud took him
to the station. Cockett half dazeu
but not realizing the seriousness OF
his wound followed his assailant up
evidently bsnt for revenge but when
he reached the entrance to the
station house he reeled aud fell
down exhausted from loss of blood.
jackson and Cockett were taken
to the Hospital in the Ambulance
wagon. jackson died on the road
to the Hospital, and Cockett is lying
in cot in dangerous condition but
there are strong prospects OF the
ultimate recovery of the athletic
young man.
The knife wielder is "bad man"
and we know of saloons where a
special club has been reserved for
his special benefit. This morning
he was charged in the District Court
with committing the oGense of MUIR
der in the first degree and post
ponement was granted till Monday
next at the request of the prosecu-
ton and in spite Of the objections
of Attorney Strauss who with Mr..
Creighton will defend the alleged
murderer.
The saddest feature in the affair
was the accidental appearance on
the scene Of the murder of the wife
of the murdered man. She happen
ed to pass by in tram car in the
moment when her husband fell to
the ground spending his life blood
under the murderer's knife. No pen
can describe the horror and agony
OF the poor girl, she is little more
than girl, at that supreme moment.
Isaac Cockett and Togo Jackson
were both sons OF the soil and they
married two sisters, daughters of
John Sheldon, the we'll. known jour
nalist and interpreter. Two happy
households have been ruined through
the wanton slash of niger who
had neither reason or excuse for
committing his cruel act, Let the
law take it's course, while we who
liked the dead boy and recognized
the amiable traits OF his character
stand bye and mourn with his grief
stricken widow.
