GUN WAS LOADED,
BUT WITH BLANKS

1t was the intention of a japanese
last night to put out the life of an
other Jap who was bothering his sis
ter in a tenement in Pauahi street.
He held a revolver close to the face
of the Objectionable chap and pulled
the trigger five times. There were
five explosions, but the enemy did not
dEop. The wielder of the weapon
had supposed the cartridges in his
gun contained bullets, but they turn,
ed out to be blanks. The gentleman
aimed at was somewhat scorched by
powder, on his face, but otherwise
not affected
The latter, recently divorced by his
wife, persisted in trying to get an in
terview with her at odd hours of the
night, against her brothers and her
own inclinations. He had been warn

again persisted, finally breaking down
a door only TO find his eX-wife's broth
er on the other side with a revolver
that burned his face without making
holes in it.

MARE DYING AS
RESULT OF NEGLECT

A valuable mare, formerly driven by
Superintendent of Public Works Mars
ton Campbell, lay dying in the govern
ment stables on Miller street on Sun
day night, and all on account of i'm
proper attention or no attention at all.
One Of the witnesses to the pathetic
sufferings of the noble beast was the
young men who had for three years or
more been the stable attendant. He
says he was fired for economy's sake
and a man put in his place who had
been working at the cleaning of sew
ers. The sewer-cleaner did not know
how to feed a horse, with the result
that the horse lay down to die after
being improperly watered and fed.
