THE POLICEMAN KICKED
WOULD NOT GUARD KUMALAE'S
PRESENTS.
Distinguished Young Member of the
Legislature Wanted Officer Specially
Detailed to Watch Them.

Evidently Representative Jonah Ku-
malae who was married Tuesday night
fears that somebody wants those we'd
ding presents back. He certainly took
special precautions on the night of
ms weddin" to prevent any of them
being stolen.
The friends of Mr.. Kumalae are le-
gton. AS one of the rising young men
of the community and a prominent
member of the Legislature his mar
rage was of more than PASSING in
terest. Many presents were sent the
young couple and the members of the
territorial legislature, not to be behind
hand' sent him handsome testimoni-
al.
The presents were displayed in the
parlor of the Kawaiahao Seminary.
About midnight a telephone message
rang at the police station and the voice
of Representative Kumalae was heard
Is this the police station?" Yes"
well this is Representative Kumalae
speaking. have just been married and
l want you to send an officer out here
right away
Visions of some terrible row flash
before the eye of the police clerk He
did not know but the political enemies
of the Representative might be trying
to break up the wedding. An officer
was hastily dispatched to the semi
nary. When the officer reached the
scene of festivities he was taken to the
room where We're displayed the count
less wedding presents and told by Mr.
Kumalae to watch them. The police
officer thought this would be a nice
detail but when informed that he was
supposed to remain outside in the yard
and simply guard the room, he kicked
Mr.. Kumalae explained that he fear

| he did not want to loose them. The
officer could not see his way clear
even If Mr.. Kumalae was a member
of the Legislature and he telenhoned
i the police station for instructions. The
clerk in turn, awed by the imDortane
of the parsonage who demanded a spe
cial Puard for wedding presents. con.
suited one of the superior officers. The
| latter la"~hed and said that the DO.
lice department was hardly being rur
as private patrol system and the off
Ger need not remain on guard.
The officer left the presents to car,
for themselves. AS no reports wer,
made to the police yesterday of any
robbery the presumption is that tn,
BURGLARS did not get away with any
wedding swag.

FATALITIES ON BOARD THE BARK
REAPER.
Two Seamen Lose Their Lives on the
Same Day-One Drowned other kill
ed by Fall.

The bark Reaper, Captain Saletzke,
which arrived from Newcastle yester-
day, after a voyage of 81 days, reports
two fatalities which occurrC in lati-
tude 80 deg. 81 min. south, and longi-
tude 179 deg. Al min. west.
1t was on April goth, in the forenoon,
that both men lost their lives. There
was a fresh wind blowing and the sea
was running heavily At $3.50 a. m.
w. Fredericks, who was aloft furling
sail, with the rest of the crew, who had
been ordered up from below, fell over
the starboard side, into the sea. The
cry of man overheard" was raised,
and a buoy was thrown to the unfor-
tunate sailor, but to no avail. Those
who were in the rigging saw him go
down three times, the last time to
rise no more. He was within q few
feet of the life preserver all the time,
and had he been able to swim, would
undoubtedly have been able have taken
advantage of the life preserver.
The vessel came to on a port tack,
for an hour or so, but nothing more
was seen of the man.
AT a. m. John Keller, who was
aloft, lost his footing and fell to the
deck, distance of some forty or fifty
feet Nothing broke the force of his
fall, and he hit the deck with loud
crash. Death was almost instan-
taneous. His forehead was caved in,
his right arm and his left leg were
badly fractured. At 10 O'Clock, the
sailors body was prepared for buri-
al, and at o'clock in the afternoon of
the same dav was consigned to it's last
resting place in the waters of the great
Pacific.

Hundreds of People Believed That He
Was on Board Battleship and Watch
ed for Him.

asked the men on the Oregon when the
big battleship arrived here today.
Yes you bet he is" was the response.
well bring him OUT was the reply.
I'VE want to see him"
He says he can't come" rejoined the
sailors. Hes writing note TO VIII
cox thanking him for the loan of his
sword. Say, is Wilcox there in the
crowd, Aggie will feel hurt if the gem
eral 'aint on hand to receive him?'
Wilcox was not on the dock however
and Aguinaldo was not on board the
Oregon, so neither had cause to feel
sighted The crowd of people VINO
gathered to see the big warship felt
very much disappointed because Agui-
naldo was not a passenger on the bat
tleship. 1t would not have mattered t.
them whether he had come as an honor
ed guest or in shackles. All they de-
sired was to see the notorious little
Filipino leader.
The big battleship was not able to
favor them however and the best that
could be offered in the way of a curiO-
sity was the presence of the biggest
vessel that has ever entered Honolulu
harbor.
1t was early reported throughout town
that Aguinaldo was on boaru the Ore
gon and would take part in the parade
ashore. Scores of people went out to
spread with surprising rapidity and
soon the Star Office was beseiged with
telephone queries as to whether Agui-
naldo was on the battleship or not
! The officers and men on, the big ship
! laughed at the report however and said
that they knew nothing about the little
/ fellow. He was not on board they as
serted positively.

at noon today by. the Oregon and at

year. There were many visitors to
Nuuanu cemetery this morning, before
the procession took it's crowd into the
burial ground, where the exercises
were held.
Business has seldom been more tho.
roughly suspended for a holiday IL
Honolulu than it was today. All the
courts and government offices were de.
serted, and practically every business

day. Streets in the business part OF
the town were about as deserted as or
Sundays. Flags were at half mast al
over the city.

WANT MUSIC DIsTRIBUrED.

The appropriated bill now before the
Legislature provides for trips of the
band to the other islands. A move
ment among Senators is to eliminate
this item and to insert in it's place
appropriations for bands at Hilo and
Wailuku, thus providing original"
music to the other principal centers.
