Cattle Do Damage in Hawaii.

Great damage has been done in Ha-

She directed her steps toward a
grove OF maple trees, which marked
IL e boundary line between the farms
of the two belligerents.
Bya curious coincidence, Coz Short
rood strolled in the same direction
about the same time.
The angular soldier and the thin

wheat field toward a certain big will

representative Of county judicial hon
