THINK THEY SAW
A JAP GHOST

In a ball of bluish-red fire, Japanese
fishermen think they see the ghost of
the comrade whose boat was found at
sea on Thursday, bv Captain OLSEN OF
the tug Fearless.
1t was on Tuesday night or Wednes-
posed to have been lost. The same
night several members of the Kamalo
fishing association, japanese organiza-
ton which plies its occupation at Wal
kil1i and vicinity, were out in their
boats arranging their nets. Among them
were Mkt, the Japanese special officer
and interpreter and Nakamura. These
two and one other were in a sampan
opposite the John Ena place. About
half-past one ball of fire, blush in
color and of great intensity, appeared
suddenly at the Diamond Head side of
the bay near J. B. Castles place. For
an instant it oscillated and them shot
forward in the direction of the harbor
of Honolulu, lust sklimming the surface
of the water 1t seemed to pass with
the speed OF an express train and grew
IN size as its momentum increased. For
about half mile 1t shot along and then
suddenly stopped at a place where the
Japanese fishermen know deep hole
exists. For an instant it lowered there
and again took up its flight toward the
city. About opposite MIR. Douglas beach
home the bail again stopped over place
which is also said to be quite deep. For
| four or FIVE minutes the ball, now
grown to be about two feet in diameter
and of great brilliancy, remained poised
as if uncertain as to its next flight
Then it started for the shore, its size
! dwindling gradually as it neared the
beach,
Then it shot out toward sea and
was seemingly swallowed up in the
depths. The three japanese watched
the uncanny thing, two of them in CON
! siderable terror. As soon as it started
on its swift flight seward, all three of
the boats occupants laid hand to the
sweeps and rowed in to the beach
Since that night no Japanese has ven
tured out into the bay for the purpose
Of fishing. They firmly believe that the
ball of fire is the ghost of the drowned
fisherman, visiting the locations over
which he had often stopped his boat and
searched for the wary denizens of the
reef
Mkt asserts that it was neither the
light of launch, nor a light borne by
a man. The light was within the line
of breakers where it is dangerous
pastime for anv launch to venture.

PORTUGUESE WERE:
NOT IGNORANT

In granting the motion to dismiss the
suit of v. O. Teixeira, ]. G. Perregil,
Victorino Carreira ard Manuel Sousa
against The American Dry Goods Asso-
ciation Limited, and L. B. Kerr, Judge
Gear stated that Henry E. Highton,
counsel for compliments, had referred
to the compliments as five ignorant
Portuguese This statement involun-
tarily touched the sensitiveness of the
complainants and, in its unqualified
form, was inaccurate. Mr.. Highton re-
peatedly said that his clients did not
understand the English language, that
they were ignorant of the proceedings
at corporation meetings. conducted in
that language after the enterprise ceas-
ed to be Portuguese, that relatively 20
two of the respondents they were not
versed in the dry goods business and
We're at a great disadvantage, and that
they were the victims of superior OPP
portunities and superior knowledge, ex-
ercised to their detriment. But he no
where stated or intimated that, as Por-
tuguese, they were not fairly educated
and possessed of the usual intelligence
of their countrymen, but, on the con-.
trary insisted that, While they man
aged the business of The American Dry
Goods Association, it was successful be-
yond their expectations. In this branch
of the case the point was that they
were fully capable of conducting the
business in their own language and ac-
cording to their own methods, but that,
when L. b. Kerr & Co. acquired ma
jority of the shares, two elements con-
fronted each other that could not be
reconciled, and could not work together
or comprehend each other.
Judge Gears decision is not final.
The case will be appealed to the Su-
prenle Court.
