one of the greatest earthquake disasters in IFS
history.
At 7.52 o. clock last Thursday evening Val.

EAGLES IN BATTLE.
The Daring and Skill of These Fierce
Birds of Prey.

OruitholOgists are inclined to discourage
the idea that eagles are in the habit of at
tacking large animals, but contest wit
messed by an observer dispel such a the
ory. The battle was between an eagle and
a stag
The bird singled out from herd one
particular buck. which it succeeded in
driving from the rest, Ii struck the AM .
NAL with its powerful wings, Knocked it
down aud finally killed IL 4 still more
remark able spectacle is well authenticated.
An eagle attacked fawn in the highlands
of Scotland. The cries of the little one
were answered By its dam, which sprang
upon the eagle and struck it repeatedly
with its foreleet. Fawn, deer and eagle
rolled down declivity, the bird was dis
lodged from its hold aud the fawn rescued.
Many traditions are extant as to the
carrying off Of children by eagles. The
most recent case bearing close scrutiny is
one which happened in South Africa A
Boer farmer whose stock had been harried
Ly eagles lay in ambush for the robbers
aud saw one of them descend and carry of
the kv.s- year old child of one of the kafir
servants. He shot the bird, which, with
the child still clutched in its grip, fell into
thorn bush The bird was dead, but
the child was little huIt.
Two eagles will stalk covert in concert
While one eonceals itself the other beats
,b,,ut the huShes with GREAT screaming
driving out its quarry for the hidden eagle
to swoop down upon. An even more ln-
sidious method has been observed. An
eagle seeing a sheep on the edge of pree-
pice flew at it, screaming shrilly and with
forceful beat of wing hurled it into the
valley below, where it could devour it at
its leisure. In the light of such records
there is good reason for believing the le-

of Charlie Ross, in July, 1874. This

CABLE INFORMATION RECEIVED
YESTERDAY WHICH INDICATES
THAT TERRITORIAL SUPREME
COURT is OVERRULED.

The U. S. Supreme Court has evi-
IDENTIFY overruled the Territorial Su-
preme Court in the matter of a writ of
error in the Motley will case, for yes
terday cable informatfoI was received
by S. M. Ballou to the effect that the
Supreme Court had granted the writ of
error which had been asked on behalf
of those interested in breaking the Not
ley will.
After the Motley will was sustained
In the local courts, application was
made for a writ Of error. Chief Jus
tice F'rear decided adversely to this ac-
ton, holding that the law passed about
year ago by Congress allowing an ap-
peal to be made in cases involving over
$1,000, did not apply 90 cases that had
been decided prior to the passage of
the law.
Application was therefore made to
the U. S. Supreme Court for a writ and
according to the information received
yesterday afternoon Vhe Supreme Court
holds that such writs can issue.

For hours the bark r. p. Rithet,
Captain McPhail, sailed through a
blood red sea. What the stuff was
that colored the ocean such a strange
hue is unknown. But it is believed
that some submarine volcanic action
so stirred up the bottom during the big
disaster of April Is, that the top of
the ocean was colored for days after.
The Rithet arrived this morning, 16
days from San Francisco and with her
came Captain McPhail with his report
of the strange color of the sea. The
red sea was encountered the evening of
April 23 five days after the big disaster
in California. Captain McPhail says
that he noticed the strange color of
the sea- when the vessel was about $50
miles to the south and west of San
Francisco, bound from Honolulu. The
color was rusty reddish. 1t appear
ed in streaks about go to 100 feet in
width. These streaks ran north and
south and extended as far as the eye
could reach. On the morning there
was no further evidence of the strange
color. Captain McPhail did not gather
any of the water, so he does not known
the character Of the stuff that impart-
ed such an unusual color to the water.
One of the Acapulco steamers had a
smiliar experience only the streaks

Although Home Rule Leader Charles
Motley is claiming that there will be
no fusion of any description between
his party and the Democrats in the
coming election, news from the islands
of Hawaii and Molokai go to indicate
that there is a big row on this issue
brewing in his party In fact open dec
larations of revolt have been threatened
against Motley and his element of the
Home Rule party, if they attempt to
interfere with the plans for fusion.
The Aloha Alma the native Demo-
cratic paper, has published reports of
two fusion clubs that have been organ

the clubs was organized at Laupahoe-

The shore lines of French Frigate

strange condition was brought yester-
day by the little schooner Lavinia
which arrived from her trip to Laysan
Island and French Frigate Shoal.
The pumice is indication of some very
big volcanic activity, possibly in a sub

the destruction in California on April
