LIVE MINING NOTES

Work was started on the o Be
Cheerful mine during the past week.
There is no building or machinery on
the property. but it is understood that
these improvements are soon to be
made.
Iowa and Indiana people, operating
the Quartz Mill mine, are figuring
on installing larger machinery for the
purpose Of sinking the shaft to q
depth of several hundred feet. The
property is looking very good and
there is any amount of fair grade mill
dirt in the several levels that would
pay well If the company had a mill
on the ground to treat the same. If
water is ever brought into the coun-
ty from Fall river. which proposition
Is under way, a mill will be erected
by this company.
Sinking on the War Dance has been
completed and the shaft is now down
275 feet. While sinking was in pro-
gress ore running five and six OF.
was taken out. New drifts are now
being started and operations are be.
ing confined principally to develop
ment during the pendency of the
War Dance litigation.
1t is reported that the Susan Mary
in Lake gulch is soon to be started
by Kansas City people. The property
is owned by several residing in Chic.
ago and of late has been worked by
lessees who have taken out some
good ore. carrying free gold in quan.
titles. There is a small plant of ma.
chinery on the main shaft but 1t Ia
likely that if operations are increas-
ed to any extent larger plant will
be installed.
Hosting Of all the water from the
shaft on the 2:4O mine has been ac-
complished and the east bottom level
tors have been working the tunnel
and have been making some good
shipments from stope. 1t is their
intention now to work both the tun.
mel and the shaft.
James Moody this week moved a
small hoist to the Tascher-Kansas on
Quartz hill and work will be started
on this property as soon as the equip
ment is in working order A local
pool have lease on the mine.
| A. H. Heller, manager of the King
Bee properties, told an Observer re-
preventative yesterday that they had
driven 40 feet on the drift on the
cross vein struck in the 500 level
last week and says that the streak
is getting better as progress is made.
The vein is now two and half feet
wide. 1t contains three streaks. There
is a foot of smelling ore and along
side Of this is foot and half of mill
ing ore. In their, haste to drive the
drift to cut the Wellington No. 6
vein the milling ore is not being
saved, but as the smelling streak
runs half ounce in gold and six oz.
in silver, this is being saved. Four
feet day is being driven in the
drift and at this rate, Judging from
the pitch of the vein in the tunnel,
it will be a week before the junction
is reached. The vein on the yelling
ton No. 6 can be traced on the sur
face a distance of $500 feet Work in
the tunnel is over 1000 feet deeper
than the Iron Duke workings.

INSANE FIREMAN
CAUSES TROUBLE

HILO, May 25.-GeorAo Opasih, an
Australian fireman from the steamship
Columbian was last Tuesday commit
ted to the Insane Asylum by Judge An
drews. The proceedings in the court
showed that Opasih had created such
excitement on board the steamship
while she was lying at Kaanapali, that
he had made life rather too interesting
for the officers and men on the vessel.
1t appears that the man went sud-
denly insane at about midnight of
Saturday, May 10. He produced a
razor and threatened to run amucli
among his mates in the forecastle. He
was secured and was placed i'll an en-
PITY cabin, and two quartermasters
were set on watch outside the door.
The guards must, however, have
been less vigilant tina nthe occasion re-
quired, for at about four o'clock in
the morning Opasih managed to get
out of the room and to secure his
razor He Immediately proceeded
down into the engine room, and there
he stood up two men, who were on
watch, and threatened to kill them
These men managed to call the chief
engineer, who tried to persuade the
insane fireman to lay down his arms.
The chiefs persuasive powers were,
however, impotent, and Opasih told
him that he was going to carve a slice
out of his abdomen, inulcating the
particular place where he intended to
make his choice cut.
At this point the captain arrived on
the scene. He had a revolver and
pointing this weapon at the mutineer,
he told him that he would kill him if
he did not surrender his razor. Opasih
could not be reasoned with. He said
that he intended to add the captain
to his list of victims, but finally one
of the men in the room manage to get
close enough to the maniac to get close
enough to the maniac to land blow
with a wrench on his arm. Opasih
dropped the razor, and on later exam
ination it was found that bone Of
his arm had been broken by the force
of the blow which he had received.
A physician was secured from La
haina, who dressed the arm, and the
vessel proceeded to this port, where
the formal information against the
man was made before the District
court.
Judge Andrews committed the man,
and he has been held in the jail for
safe-keeping, it being planned to send
him to Honolulu to the asylum by the
Mauna Kea this week. The man has,
since he was incarcerated, appeared
quite rational, but under the circum-
distances it is considered best that he
be kept under medical surveillance for
some time yet.

BURTON HOLMES
BUSHES THROUGH
NOTED LECTURER MAKING BUT
SHORT STAY ON HIS WAY
AROUND THE WORLD.

Burton Holmes, probably the best
known lecturer in the United States
and certainly one of the best lecturers
on Hawaii, is a through passenger
Oh the Korea, which is now IN port.
He is accompanied by Mr. Wright
Kramer, who will make Hawaii spe-
cialty in illustrated lectures during
the coming season and both are bound
around the world on a rush trip.
According to the plan which Messrs.
Holmes and Kramer have outlined,
they will spend just four months in
their circuit of the globe. They will
stop over in Japan for some little
time after leaving here, then going
north and across Siberia, by the fam
Gus Russian railroad. They take in
st Petersburg as well as the capitals
of the Kingdoms of Norway and Swe-
den, before returning to the United
States.
r.. K. Bonine was on hand to meet
Mr. Holmes and Mr. Kramer when
the Korea landed and hustled them
into an automobile, with which they
made a rush trip around the city and
its suburbs. Mr.. Holmes stated that
lie was very sorry that he would be
unable to stay over and see the many
friends whom he has made on his
previous trips to Hawaii. Next year
he may be more fortunate. During
lis present short stay he will take
the opportunity of looking through
all the new views of the islands which
he can obtain and selecting the best
for use in his lectures.

QUEEN OF
PACIFIC HERE
STEAMER KOREA BRINGS DOWN
MANY LOCAL PEOPLE - MOST
ENJOYABLE VOYAGE.

The Pacific Mail steamer Korea,
Captain Sandberg, reached the Hack
field dock this morning at 10 o'clock
bringing in a number of passengers
for this city Among them were
Judge and Mrs. S. M. Ballou, Walter
F. Dillingham;, f. II. P. Waterhouse,
and Captain Chapman, who will take
command of the ship Dirigo, filling
the vacancy made by the resignation
of Captain Goodwin.
The passengers OF the Korea report
most delightful trip, with the sea
smooth as a mill pond" and with
plenty of good times to make the
voyage pleasant. One of the most ex-
citing sports of the voyage was a base
ball game in which Captain Sandberg,
Burton Holmes, the noted lecturer,
and Captain Dunning. U. S. N, were
among the enthusiasts. The passen-
gers appeared to be glad to reach
Honolulu but sorry to leave the ship
on which they had enjoyed such a
pleasant trip
Among the Honolulu passengers was
Miss Gussie Clark. who has been in
San Francisco for nearly two years.
When the Korea was about to leave
the dock in San Francisco a number
OF Miss Clark's friends in that city
deluged her with American Beauty
roses, their parting gift to her.
The Korea brought down two hun
bred and fifty tons of freight for this
city, one of the items being the new
propeller blade for the steamer Lur-
line. Six days mail also came by
the big vessel, which leaves for the
Orient this evening at O'Clock.
