A boxing tournament has been ar
ranged for January 2 at the Orpheum
under the management of Joe Cohen

the fights VIII be good ones.
George Modlin and Jack McFadden
have been matched to meet at 131
pounds, at SIX o'clock, and the bout
should be a strong drawing card. Hui
hui and Ryan have signed to box at las

Each of the fights will be for six
rounds and the Orpheum will no doubt
be taxed to accommodate the crowd

AN HEROIC RESCUE
ON kauai
LONO, AN HAWAIIAN, PLUNGES
INTO THE ROLLING SURF AND
SAVES A PORTO RICAN.

LIHUE, Kauai, Dec. 19.-On Friday
afternoon, the 9Th, Porto Rican at
tempted suicide by drowning. The sea
was very heavy and the breakers were
rolling in mountains high on the rocky
coast just out from the Kealia school
house. About three o'clock a couple of
Porto Ricans came along engaged in
very earnest conversation, one talking
in a wild, excited manner and the 9TH
er trying to pacify him, apparently
Just as they got opposite to the school
house the excited one made a break
for the ocean and threw himself into
the breakers. He was rapidly carried
out to sea and seemed to be wilfully
drowning himself. The other started
for Kealia to secure help running as
fast as his legs would carry him. Be-
fore the tragedy closed an Hawaiian
fisherman named Lono came along and
seeing the drowning Porto Rican in
great danger, without a seconds hesi-
tation threw off his clothes and plung-
ed into the ocean. Lono soon reached
the Porto Rican who was about a hun
dred yards out, and catching him by
the hair dragged him against his will
to the shore. The Porto Rican was too
near gone to make much resistance, but
fought with what little strength he
had against his rescuer. The Porto
Rican was soon upon the shore in spite
of his efforts and his rescuer rolled
him around and patted him on the back
until he was somewhat revived Whis-
key was procured and forced into his
mouth but the Porto Rican would have
none of it, and as fast as it was put
INTO his mouth, threw it out. The Por-
to Rican who had gone to Kealia soon
returned and after the half drowned
man was revived explained that he had
attempted suicide. He said he had
tried to dissuade him, but with no sue
cess. He said they had a lot of trou-
BILE the day before with Koreans who
live near them. and his friends had
tried to end his troubles in death. Had
it not been for the Hawaiian fisherman
he would certainly have accomplished
his purpose.
