glad to entertain such visitors and in

SERIOUS RIOTS
AT MARSAiLLES

MARSEILLES, France. March 90
a crowd of 1000 burst through a cor
don Of infantry along the dock side The

back. A volley of stones was then
thrown in all directions. and a brigadier,
fantrymen were injured. One gendarme
was stunned. thrown from his horse
and trampled upon by the cavalry. He
was removed to the hospital. where he
lies in a critical condition. Ine soldiers
were greatly exasperated, but their Off
GERS succeeded in controlling them.
The strikers are irrltated at the re-
fusal Of the Premier. NJ. waldeck- -Rous-
seau, to receive the Socialist Mayor OF
Marseilles, NJ Flassieres, who sought to
obtain Government pressure to force the
masters to negotiate, the masters having
declined to do so on the ground that the
strike was unjustifiable and a breach of
Il previous agreement Flassieres threat
ems that the Socialists will make repri-
sails for this insult from the Government
and he points out that he stood aloof
from the pro- Kruger demonstration at
a moment when, as he puts it, by enter
ing Krueger's carriage he might have
won a popular triumph.
Two hundred men, several with babes
in arms, took part in today's demonstra-
tion in spite OF the rain. With the ex-
ception of the Socialist organs the press
shows little sympathy with the strikers.
The public generally recognizes that
the strike has already done an immense
amount OF injury and may completely
ruin the port.

TAR, BIKE AND
THE HACKMAN

The novel sight of British tar
working furiously at the pedals of a
hired bicycle which he drove along at
a slow pace on Hotel street did not
attract much attention until the Jackie
reached the corner of Fort and Hotel
streets. At this juncture "A hack driv-
en- by a Portuguese, and containing
fair passenger who hailed from the
slopes of Punchbowl rounded the cor
ner at rapid gait The driver was
so muc htaken up with the smiles of
his passenger in the rear seat that ne
had eyes for little save her. Instead
of driving his horse toward the mauka
side of Hotel street, he turned the
corner sharply.
King Edwards little blue jacket, who
seldom rides anything but ship, had
no opportunity to maneuver either up
on the sidewalk or toward the oppo-
site side of the street. In an instant
the horse struck the wheel and the
jackie and both went down In heap
upon the recently sprinkled thorough
fare. He was thrown to one side by a
vigorous movement OF one of the
horses hoofs, but the bicycle did not
fare so luckily. The horse struggled
over the mesh of spokes, rims and
frame, and passed it along to the
wheels of the vehicle. When the mack
had left the machine in its wake, the
bike was "A shapeless mass of metal.
without waiting to see what damage
he had inflicted the driver whipped up
his horse and drove to Nuuanu street
and turned up that thoroughfare. The
sailor raised himself from his muddy
position and woefully inspected his
wrecked steed. Chester Doyle and OfH-
Ger Lambert had been witnesses to the
accident. Doyle saw a rig near by
and hailing the owner asked him to
pursue the hack. The owner obliging
ly did so. and the Japanese interpre-
ter caught the driver at School street
and brought him to the station house.
The sailor demanded that he make
good the amount of damages to the
wheel or he would prosecute him.
The Portuguese, after demurring and
claiming the accident was due to the
sailors bad steering of the handle
bars, finally consented to pay the
same. The entire party went to the
bicycle shop and the amount was fixed
at $23 As further balm FOR his
wounded feelings and interrupted ride

CLIMBED THE POLE.

A daring feat was performed yester-
day afternoon by Charles van Geisin in
mounting to the top of the Flagstaff on
the f. o. Hall &, Sons building, corner
of Fort and King streets. The staff
is pine stick, well anchored, and
towers far above the street A short
time since the halyards were drawn
through the pulley and the staff became
a useless ornament. Young van Geisin
volunteered to reeve a new rope and
made the venture yesterday afternoon
at o'clock. AS soon as the pedestrians
on the street below saw what was about
to be done, they stopped and large
crowds watched the young Hawaiian
essay to climb up the smooth stick.
Tying the line to his waist, he removed
his shoes and stockings, spat upon his
hands and embraced the staff. Monkey
like he worked his way up slowly.
When half way to the top the pole be-
gan to sway under his weight and his
jerky movements, and he had to work
along more cautiously. When three
quarters up he clung to the pole with
his arms and feet and again spat upon
his palms. With a few short, easy lifts
he finally reached the goal and calmly
took the line from his waist, reeved it
through the block, dropped one end and
then slid down the stick, holding on
| to the opposite end.
