Years ago when he was a captain in
the Sixth cavalry, he was ordered to
go out and round up a lot of Apaches
who had gone on the warpath. Just

the post telegraph office.
"Have you any further orders for

listed the enthusiastic support of
his congregation. AS man and
neighbor he is as popular with the
general public as with the mem
bers of his own church. Pos
sessed of a cheerful, affable
disposition his presence radiates sun
shine and good cheer wherever he
may choose to go.

System of TrackIess TroIley's.

The only system of trackless troll

operated by an overhead wire, have
proved satisfactory, the only objection
TO them being the fact that they re-
quire twice the current used for cars
operated over rails.

USEFUL YOUNG NAN
CONES TO HIS END

Vincent Fernandez died at his home
in Kalihi yesterday morning, shortly
after having been carried ashore from
the steamer Mauna Loa. He had been
in a decline for about a year past and
went to Kona, Hawaii, about six weeks
ago with hope of benefit from the sa-
lubrious climate OF that district It
was all too late for him, and he came
home to die. There was difficulty,
indeed, in keeping up his vitality on
reach Honolulu alive.
The dead young man was an indus
trious and thrifty Hawaiian, belonging
to a family of the same characteristics
a loss to the community. He was born
in Honol6lu some thirty-three years
ago of a Hawaiian mother, his father,
now dead a good many years, having
been a retired veteran of the British
army in the Far East who; in honor
able business here, did well for him
self and his family. Besides a wife,
Vincent Fernandez leaves a sister and
three brothers, the eldest of the latter
being Abraham Fernandez, for years
manager of the Hawaiian Hardware
Co. For the past eight years the SUBJ
ject of this obituary has been en-
ployed by a. V. Gear as a clerk He
revealed an aptitude for business and
always evinced an unstudied politeness
that made people like him.
He made an exceptionally snug home
for himself at Kalihi, from whence the
funeral Will take place, to Kalihi cefne-
terry, at o'clock this afternoon.
