CHINESE BOY
OWED TOO DEEP

Edward Ping Chong, a Chinese boy
twenty years of age had a narrow es-
cape from death while in bathing at
Long Branch yesterday afternoon. He
dived off the platform just above the
Hawaiian Hotel Annex and stuck his
head into the sand with such force as
to paralyze both his arms and legs.
Some boys that were in the water at
the time saw his plight and pulled him
out.
The water at that point is not very
deep, and even at high tide there is
not over six or seven feet. The sand
shifts so much in that vicinity as to
make it almost impossible to tell Just
how deep the water is. Yesterday when
the accident occurred it could not have
been over four or five feet deap.
The Chinese jumped headfirst from
the platform, which is about six feet
above the water. He struck the sand
at the bottom with much force, and
when he arose to the surface appeared
to be unconscious. Bathers in the
vicinity assisted him out of the water
and he was taken to shore and the
police ambulance sent for. The boy
was taken to Queens Hospital where
it was reported later that he was
naraIyzed in both his arms and legs.
The lower part of his body seems most
affected 1t is not believed that the
injuries will be permanent.

Negro Caught Saturday
in Chillingworth's
Abode.
Rumor Circulated That Man Was
Trying to Kill Sheriff-Two
Men Arrested.

Frank Boyd. a negro. was caught by
Deputy Sheriff Chillingworth in his
King street home Saturday evening at
IL o'clock, evidently intent on robbery,
though big carving knife in his hand,
showed that he was ready for murder
if necessary.
Ch1lin,7vorth received a tip about
three weeks ago that an attempt was
to be made to rob his house. He placed
little credence in the story until Satur-
day afternoon when he was told by
Joe" a Porto Rican policeman, that
the robbery was to occur that night.
and that it would be wise for him to
remain at home ChiIlingworth did re-
main at home Saturday night, and as
an additional precaution Dan Renear
was stationed with him.
About IL o'clock they heard some one
approaching the rear veranda. A mo-
ment afterwards the outside screen was
cut open. and a black hand reached in
side and unfastened the lock. Then, as
the burglar entered, Chillingworth
turned on the electric light, and a negro
with a dangerous looking carving knife
in his hand was revealed. Before he
could make any resistance he was dis
armed and handouts snapped upon his
v-risfS

The man was Frank Boyd, a well
known negro character. He was taken
to the Police Station where he is said
to have confessed that he was planning
to rob the house, and that if he had
known it was the Deputy Sheriff's resi-
dence he would have kept away. Ac-
cording to the story told, another negro,
Brady Clemons. had put him up to the
job, and told him that there was $1,000
in the house which was to be divided,
share and share alike. This money
was supposed to have been some re-
covered from a French woman.
Boyd told other stories, among them
one duplicating Joe the policeman,
who he said was to have done the
job with him. He also is said to have
acknowledged that he had attempted
other robberies on the Waikiki road,
but the light was too bright and he
abandoned that job.
Brady Clemons was afterwards ar
rested and denied all knowledge of the
crime. Boyd is heing held on charge
of being unlawfuiIy on the Chilling
worth premises. Clemons is simply
held for investigation.
There were dozens of wild and i'm
probable stories floating about the city
yesterday, chief of which was that an
attempt had been made on Chilling
worth's life and that the negroes were
working for some one who wanted him
out of the way. Little credence is
placed in these stories, though all are
being investigated.

Laha,naluna Work and Future.

It is rumored that Lahainaluna
Seminary is to be abandoned as a gov
ernment institution of learning, and in
one sense it would be a very keen
cause Of regret to see this done. This
institution is rich in good works that it
has done for Hawaiians. but it must
frankly be confessed that for the past
decade, it has fallen far short of ac-
complishing all that should have been
expected Of such a school. Industrial
and manual training schools for Ha-
waiian boys should be maintained by
the territory, and If Lahainaluna is
continued as a government school
it should be thoroughly renovated
and started on a new basis. Such a
school however would be much more
convenient and maintain a much larg-
er patronage If established at Wailuku
on central Maui; in the midst OF a
large Hawaiian population.-Maui

Investigation Shows That

scious in Kakaako-His Al
legged Assailant Arrested.

Kahekni. a native boy. is lying at
the Queens Hospital with a bullet in
his abdomen which may cause his
death.
According to the story told by Joe
King and George Naiwi they were in
dulging in revolver practice early yes
terday morning back of Punchbowl
Kabekili they say, was practicing with
them. and he was moving the target for
their amusement. 1t seems that the
boys were using a square board or
something of the kind for a target, and
.,s,er thew were able to hit it at ten
,ards. IL was moved back another ten
Yards. While so engaged bullet from

nor very coherent though investlga-
tion proyed their innocence.
A. oneen's Hospital yesterday after
noon it was reported that the bullet mao
nanetrated the abdomen but not the
s.omacn or bowels. 1t had also pierced
one lung. Kahekilis condition was salu
to he serious with a possibility that II
might terminate fatally.
Deputy Sheriff Chillingworth after
wards investigated the affair and touho
that the story of the shooting was SUD

ten feet away when his revolver went

ANOTHER MYSTERIOUS AFFAIR
An AFFAIR with even more mystery
connected with it. is that of Robert ha-
shunui. also a native. He was picked
up on Queen street in Kakaako carry
Yesterday afternoon. in an unconscious
condition. The natives head was DauiS
battered and bruised and he could not

man had evidently been lying in the
street for some time without the slight
est protection from the heat. To the
officers. people who had gathered said
that the injuries inflicted upon Kaihu-
nui we're the result OF a fight which
x-as participated in by negroes. Ac-
cordInE TO this story. the native was
engaged in a crap game with a number
.,f negroes. which finally broke up in a
row. The negroes in the game set upon
the native and beat MIN very brutally.
Kafhunui was taken to Queens Hos
pitaI in the patrol and his wounds
dressed. His face was badly battered
and his nose was found to have been
broken. He was still in a stupor last
evening. The physician attending re-
ports that he had been drinking. but
that at present it was impossible to
say whether he was unconscious be-
cause of that or from the effects of the
beating.

Christmas was a sad season for the
little mountain city of Terra Alta,
death having removed on that day
two very well known people. Mrs
Matte Huntington, wife of w. Greed
Cunnlngton, proprietor of the well
known hotel of the same name, died
there Christmas morning. of paraly-
sis, after an illness of about two
weeks. The funeral occurred at 10
O'Clock Saturday morning, and was
largely attended. The deceased was
well and favorably known through
out Preston county, and was greatly
loved for her many Christian virtues
and kindliness. She was a sister in
law of Mrs. d. Miller Simonton, of
Grafton, and had many friends there
and at Webster She will be sincere
ly mourned by an army of friends.
Charles Glover, son of Hon. and Mrs.
William Henry Glover, also Terra
Alta, died in Pittsburg Christmas
night, after a short illness of typhoid
fever, and the remains were brought
home Saturday morning and inferred
Sunday, the 28th inst. The young
man was aged about % years, and
was one of the most popular and well
known gentlemen in that section of
the country. He had been in Allie
gheny City for about a year where
he was employed in the establishment
of Boggs & Bull. When death came
he was attended by his father, who
did everything possible for the restor-
alton of his son, calling in the most
learned and accomplished medical
aid and professional nurses in Pitts
burg, but all to no avail. The de-
ceased was the only son and his death
is a severe shock to the loving mother,
father and sister.
