STORES
BURNED
CFrom Mondays daiiy)

Fire which broke out at 1870 o'clock
this morning destroyed a block of
buildings in Chinatown and endanger-
ed many lives. That the sleeping men
and women got out was due to the
watchfulness of Patrolman Wills, who
discovering the fire upon the first
tongue of light making itself
manifest aroused everyone possible and
then returned after turning in the
alarm.
There was a party of men playing
dominoes a short time before the fire
in the room in the rear of the grocery
store of Sun Lung, in the Cross block
just opposite the junction of King and
Beretania streets. 1t was behind them,
in room further back in the same
house that the fire first began to be
apparent. 1t is supposed that it was
started by a stove blaze, the fire there
having been kept alive for the purpose
of Nlshi0~ a meal for the players.
The Chiatse piled out of the building
with a rush. and the flames We're at
their heels gaining with rapdity. The
fire at once was communicated to the
storehouse of the Oceanic Gas and
Electric Company, on the Eva side, at
the corner of the alley, and on the
Waikiki side to the restaurant of Oak
Sing and the fruit store of Chung kee.
In the rear stands cottage occupied
by the family Of the storekeeper, and
the sleeping inmates had time To get
out without saving any of the belong
ings. All around at the rear are tene-
ments, in the most part occupied by
Japanese, and there was "A panic for
time and the air was fun of pictures
and mirrors being thrown over the
balconies while the police had all they
could do to keep the frightened resi-
dents from getting into the fire.
AfteN the building in which the fire
began had fallen in the flames spread
to the adjoining block, which extended
to the office of the Oahu Lumber Com
pany, and the upper story was soon
Gutted and the stores on the ground
floor flooded The fire was confined
there and the yards and buildings of
the lumber company saved.
1t is believed that everyone got out
safely though there was no one at the
time who had seen Chun kee. The loss
win be in the neighborhood of $4,000
During the fire the insulation on sew
eral electric light wires was ignited
and burned through, the wires being
melted and dropping to the ground.
Several linemen We're on the ground
/ and quickly cut out the live wires and
no damage resulted.

Pats Trouble.

Pat had come over to America with
the expectation of finding money lying
around loose, only waiting for some
one to pick it up. OF course this was
long ago Pat had soon become disil-
lusionized and was always glad to get
hold of odd jobs which would net him
a little something to help him keep
body and soul together. Finally, be-
coming tired of the struggle, he de-
cided to end it all and was very indus
triously tying rope around his waist
when his landlord happened in on him.
After watching him curiously for a
few minutes he asked:
"What's up, Pat? What are you try
ing to do?"
"Troyin' to choke meself, av coorse,"
was Pats answer.
"Choke yourself? You can't do it
that way. You'll have to put the rope
around your neck"
