A NEGRO BRUTE
MAKES ATTEMPT
TO ASSAULT A YOUNG LADY IN
THIS CITY LAST NIGHT, AND
MUCH FEELING AROUSED.

The city was thrown into a fever
of excitement last evening over an
attempted outrage. The intended vic
tim was a seventeen-year-old daugh-
ter of Mr. John Hassell, who lives at
the old Erwin homestead, on Erwin
street, almost in the heart of the
city. The attempt was made by a
negro man, whom the intended vic
tim describes as being very tall, clean
shaven; hair short and clothes
ragged.
The attempt was made about s
O'Clock. and the young lady was
seized in the yard of her home when
she stepped out for some purpose.
She was choked. and bodily carried
hundred yards from the house into
an alley near the Scott & Hassell
lumber yard. At this point the
negro's grasp on the intended vic
TINS throat released, and she
screamed: the negro became fright
ened and fed. Engineer Jim Nc
Means, who lives near, and Clarence
Averytt, another neighbor. hurried in
the direction from which the scream
ing came, and found the young lady
in a semi-conscious condition. so bad
ly frightened that she could scarcely
tell them anything for a few minutes.
Others soon joined these gentlemen,
and the young lady was conducted
back to her home. II was founo her
clothing was almost torn from her.
She suffered greatly from the fright,
but was able TO give the above de
scription. Officers were soon on the
scene. and with hundreds of citizens.
the city and vicinity was secured.
and negroes who could not give full
and complete account of themselves,
as well as other suspicious charac-
tiers, we're taken into custody. How
ever, all were liberated on examina-
ton, as the officers were satisfied
they were not the right parties.
The young lady is resting well to-
day. and comes out OF her awful ex-
perience unlnjured To tho oEcers
she says before she lost conscious
ness she heard the negro swear fear
fully. and heard this sentence: Now,
d you, I've been laying for you a
long time. and now I've got you"
The search for the infamous scoun.
drel continues today. and If he is
captured no doubt the courts will
deal with him promptly. and give him
the limit of punishment for his at
tempted crime
At the Herald's hour Of going to
press this afternoon nothing new has
developed in the case. The officers
are still working on every clue that
has any connection with the crime,
and hope yet to apprehend the per-
petrator
Two more suspects were carried |
before Miss Hassell today. making /
seven in all who have been taken be-
fore the young lady, but she has not /
identified any of them as the one who
attacked her.
Sheriff Watts has offered a reward |
Of fifty dollars for the arrest and
of the guilty man. Mr..
Hassell, father Of the young lady,
who was in the country at his mill,
had not reached the city when this
was written. but is expected in as
soon as he can make the trip.
The governor has not been heard
from in reference to offering re
ward.

TWO DEAD
IN HARBOR
"a -
Waters Yield Up Marine
and a CoIored
Stevedore.

The waters of Honolulu harbor gave
up the bodies of two dead men yes
terday morning. One was identified as
the body of a United States marine.
and the other was a coiored man.
The body of the marine was found
taken out and identified as that of
John HoWser, a marine, who was a
passenger on the army transport
Sherman, bound from Manila to Mare
Island Tor discharge. He was attach,
ed to the cruiser Cincinnati on the
Asiatic station. He had about two
months yet to serve.
Lieut. Turner u. S. M. c., who was
in command of the detachment of ma
rines, stated yesterday at the police
station that the marine had been about
four years in the service. The dead
mans effects were turned over to him.
The pockets yielded some Filipino
coins, about $1.70 in silver and a few
letters.
Howser was given a pass for shore
leave at a. m. Friday last, and was
due to return aboard ship at II p. m.
During the evening a watchman on
the Sherman heard a splash, but saw
nothing to indicate a tragedy. 1t is
thought that Howser was wandering
around the dock and stumbled into the
harb6r Whether he was intoxicated
or not is not definitely known, but it
is said he had been drinking some
what.
The body of the colored man was
found near the Fort street wharf. A
few evenings since a man fell off the
wharf, and, although efforts were
made to save the man, and a rope was
thrown out to him, he was drowned.
1t is said that the man even refused
to take hold of the rope.
a curious thing about the finding of
the body of the marine was that the
top of the head was seen bobbing in
the water When the effort was made
to secure the body it was found to be
upright in the water. almost as if
treading water, and the hands We're
crossed in front of the body. This
gave rise to the rumor that there may
have been foul play, and this was
strengthened when it was learned that
the man had large sum Of money
to his credit. By some it was given
as $500 and by others as $1,000. Howser
had been stationed during his service
in the Orient. The deceased was given
a military funeral yesterday afternoon

CLOSE OF PAUL|ST
Fathers MISSION

Despite the inclemency of the wealth
in the Catholic cathedral was very
largely attended last night. Rev.
Henry Wyman preached the final SER
mon, on Heaven"
In the afternoon at three o'clock the
Catholic childrens mission closed,
Rev. Father Stark conducting the ex-
ercise. over thirteen hundred children
attended. Father Stark preached the
sermon. urging the children to keep
the resolutions made during the past
week. and to remain loyal and devoted
to the church.
An important feature then followed,
the distribution of the prizes, award
ed to the best series of synopses of the
mission instructions. OF five hundred
series. the following won prizes:
The first prize was awarded to Rose
Tam Yau and Sophia de la Nux. Sec
ond. to Walter Cough and Maria Poaf.
Third. to Mary Moniz. Fourth, to
Julia Holiinger.
A special award of merit was grant
ed Mary Wond for bringing sixty
three children to the mission. Fifty
other papers were deserving of special
mention.
The Paulists, Father Wyman and
Father Stark will remain with Bishop
Libert until December %, when they
will leave for the islands of Maui and
Hawaii. where they will continue their
missions.
An Advertiser reporter was shown

written by a Chinese girl 1t was re-
markably beautiful in penmanship,
while in English and in grasp of sub
ject matter it was simply marvellous
as the production of an Oriental child.

HAWAII PLAN
is APPROVED
Views of WeII-Informed
Washington
Writer.

William E. Curtis, in special cor
Herald under date of Washington, No
vember %, refers to 500 Belgians whC
were landed at Charleston on Novem
Der 4. as being in the country ir
violation of the immigra ton act anG
contract labor laws. MANY of them,
Mr. Curtis says, ''are well-to-do, some
small farms, and most of them had
trunks full of good clothing and laun-
dered linen. The entire shipload were
OF a class much superior in intelli-
gence, education and material qualifi-
cations to the ordinary immigrant" "
He suggests in effect that if there is
Iiciting such a fine class of immigrants,
the remedy should be applied on the
other side and the people kept from
sailing.
Then Mr. Curtis goes on to discuss
Hawaiian immigration matters as fol-
lows:
Mr.. Sargent, commissioner of i'm
migration. is in the Hawaiian Islands.
He has gone there to meet a party of
three hundred immigrants from the
Canary. Islands and the Azores who
are to arrive at Honolulu by the Brit
ish steamer Suveric on November 80.
Their advent, like that of the Belglans
at Charleston, is considered of supreme
h. Z 10, M
and the President has taken so much
interest in the matter that he in
structed Mr.. Sargent to go all the way
to Honolulu to bid them welcome in
his name and to encourage the officials

cure such settlers. They are whole

carefully selected, and as an induce
ment for them to leave their homes In
the Canaries and Azores the Terrific
rial government has offered them
tracts of land free of cost. They came
from a similar climate; they are ac-
customed to the cultivation of sugar
and other tropical crops, and are ex-
pected to make useful and valuable
citizens. 1t is believed, however that
the spirit as we'll as the letter of the
Immigration act HoiS DetH obeySu III
securing them. No private individual,
no corporation, or association, has had
any hand in the matter, but the move
ment has been managed by Territorial
officials, whose expenses have been paid
from the Territorial treasury. Every
letter. circular and other written and
printed matter has been on the sta>
of Hawaiian Territory, paid
for by public taxation as required by
the immigration law.
Another shipload of similar immi-
grants is expected at Honolulu from
Genoa in a few weeks. 1 believe it is
already on the way. These newcomers
have been picked up in northern Italy,
where may be found one of the most
intelligent and Industrious populations
in the world, and other parties are
from the Azores and Canaries
later to take the place of Asiatics upon
the Hawaiian plantations.
Mr. Curtis is premature in his state
ment about the Italians, unless he
knows more about Messrs. Stackable
and Fraser's doings in Europe than
they have reported to the local au>
.horities.
