OVERBOARD TO
SAVE A LADY
The Wet Adventure Of a Crack
BicycIist and Healani
Yachtsman.

Nathan L. Chapman. the popular
young yachtsman, and erstwhile jewel
err at wichman's, had an adventure
worth recalling in the annals OF the
Healani Boat Club, Of which he is an
enthusiastic member, yesterday.
Besides being yachtsman and the
possessor Of an undivided one-hah in
terest in the Pirate, which Is the ter
ror of the harbor, Mr.. Chapman is q
crack bicyclist, and has some consid-
cradle renown as an expert ba1ancer
on the machine of the pneumatic tire.
There are times and circumstances,
however. which will rattle the best OF
bicyclists, and the yachtsman was up
against such a combination yesterday
afternoon. Having had his regular 4
o'clock swim, and having cut several
nipeon wings about the harbor at the
helm of the Pirate, the doctor" as he
10 popularly called, started homeward
and dinnerward. Jumping on his wheel,
which is a recent purchase of the latest
make. and enamelled festively in the
uealani colors, he spun down the plank
walk from the boathouse, skilifully
t,,rnad the corner, and started to sprint
along the three-board walk that spans
+be distance between the lighthouses
and terra firna, some two hundred
Yards away. ALI would have been well,

HER TRIALS

Kan You is Sent
To China on
Peru.

When the steamer Peru weighed an
Choir and sailed Nom this port last
night a great weight was also lifted
from the mind of Thomas Fitch.
Kan You, the pretty Chinese girl who
came to Honolulu as maiden, depart
ed as matron through the instrument
tally of Mr.. Fitch and in spite OF the
order of Judge Estee, who ruled that
she was unmarried and consequently
not a citizen of the Territory or OF the
United States. Kan You has had q
varied career since the day she was
placed under arrest by Deputy Marshal
Hendry, as Chinese laborer Illegally
within the limits of the United states
and every step has been strangely m
terwoyen with the history Of Mr.. Fitch,
though much to his sorrow. 1t was ms
first Chinese case since coming 70 ho-
nolulu and his experiences were such
that he will hardly attempt to get an
other client of the same race until the
memory of Kan You is dead.
Yong Hang, the reputed husband %
the woman, did not forsake her IN nef
hour of need, and when the Peru saileu
IT carried not only the deported Chinese
woman, but also her huspano' VIZ

in order that he might accompany

of the cruel workings OF the excuse,

by the devotion of a husband. dowes.i

1T has already been the cause OF une1.u
misery among the Chinese OF Honoiuiu !.

nese merchant, but also because OIL ne

pened.
When about half way across, the
doctor" to his CONSERVATION, saw a
lady approaching, a dainty parasol
shading her face, and at the same time
hiding from her view the sprinting
bicyclist. Chapman is unable to ex-
plain Just how it happened, but in the
twinkling of an eye he realized that
there was only one way to avert a dis
aster; he could not pass the lazy, as
she was approaching all unconscious
OF impending danger, directly In the
middle of the walk. He could not stop
the wheel, and the alternative was
plain.
These thoughts passed through his
mind in much less time than it takes
to tell it, and he was just reaching
the conclusion above referred to, when
he became badly ratified, and was saw
ed from deliberately riding off into
the water six feet below, by the violent
webbing Of the wheel, which lasted
about q sixteenth of second, the finale
being a plunge off the walk and a
splash below.

'swela ka hao!" The dainty parasol
was uplifted. and rOld Mary, the
South Sea Islander mascot Of the club,
in all the bravery Of her Sunday
clothes, stood with arms akimno
watching the disturbance below.
A number of small brown boys and
native fishermen also enjoyed the spec
tacle audibly, and to the chagrin of
the gallant young man, as he emerged,
saturated with salt water, from the
unsavory shadows, a shout went UP
from number of his friends who stood
In the doorway Of the boathouse.

Mr.. w. B. Powell. former superin-

c., delivered lecture on education
yesterday morning to the teachers at
the Normal School, and also to some
of the visiting teachers who happened
to be present. His address was along
educational lines, and largely advisory,
giving to the teachers much valuable
information as to the art or pedagogy.
Mr.. Powell is on his way home from
Manila, where he has been on visit.

speaks in high terms of the possibili-

law. This too when the whole conten-
ton Of the defense had been that she
had already been married in China
Judge Estee, inspite of the wiles and
Ieprehensible action of her attorney,
did not let it affect his judgment, and
ordered the woman deported, ruling
that the so-called Chinese marriage
was incomplete, and that the woman
was not born in the Islands. Her at

attempting to defeat the ends of JUS

happier to see her leave the Islands
than she was to go.

her affliction, while Fitch did not
