Cox is also a promoter and erected an

A quick round trip of twenty-six
days, eight days down and twelve up,
is the showing of the Commercial Pa
cific Gable Company's steam auxiliary
schooner Flaurence Ward, Captain
Piltz, which early this morning re-
turned from Midway.
Remarkable weather was experience
ed both going and returning, in that
there was at no time anything but the
pleasantest winds and pleasurable con-
ditions. Not sail was sighted either
way
Returning in the Ward was Cable
Operator c. E. Beall and two Chinese
servants.
Gable Operator Cox, on Midway, may
return to Honolulu when the Flaurence
Ward comes home on the next trip.

post Office is made aware of 124 sacks
of mail coming from San Francisco;
hotels and hacks may make deductions
from the information that there are

The actual construction work on the
Hilo breakwater was commenced this
morning, according to a wireless mes
sage received this noon by President
B. F. Dillingham;, of the Hilo railroad,
from Superintendent R. w. Filler, of
the road. Not only has this good
news arrived but the same dispatch
brings knowledge of the fact that the
schooner Emily Whitney has com.
menced loading the first cargo of ties
which will be shipped to the coast In
fulfilment of the contract between the
Hawaiian Mahogany Lumber Company
and the Atchison, Topeka and Santa
Fe railroad.
What this means to the Hilo rail
road may be seen at a glance. The

eled 30 miles across the country from
Sumrall to Purvis to surrender herself
and to answer for the killing of her
father, which she claims was done in
order to I've her mother and herself
from bodily harm. 1t seems that Rich
ardson became enraged at his daughter
for having married fairfield, and com-
PEELED her to return to his roof. Then
he proceeded to abuse the girl and his
wife. He went into his yard to get a
stick with which to chastise the ome
Upon his return he was met in the door
by his daughter, who had procured the
family shotgun. She warned him not
to come in with the stick, but he con-
tinued to advance. The girl fred, but
aimed at the floor, to brighten him.
Still he came on. This time she fired to
kill. The charge entered the mans
stomach, producing death in a few
