kUkU| CAUSED LOT
Of FUNNY MISTAKES

Wouldn t it jar you to think that
Uncle Sam S crack and jaunty little
Lighthouse tender, the Kukui, or the
Kukui Nut as she is affeetionately
called in club circles, could be taken
for a japanese passenger liner called
the Manchu Maru? That's just what
happened last evening shortly after 6
o. clock and caused no end of trivial
trouble for the customs, immigration,
quarantine and steamship officials, let
alone lone newspaper man who had
to miss his evening meal because of
the mistake.
All hands up town were notified that
the Manchu Maru is half way be-
tween here and Barber's Point and the
Nippon Maru is just coming around
Barber s Point. - It was a case of
killing two birds with one stone That
is, the customs, immigration and quar-
antine services could pick up the Man
chu and then go over to the Nippon.
Long before the whistle blew its three
long blasts to notify the town that a
passenger boat was sighted, the tele-
phone had been utilized to notify the
various officials and the custom IS
launch Waterwitch was called over to
the Fort street wharf and the doctor 8
launch, like pu. Herr Bayer of the
steamship department of Hackfeld IS
was just sitting down to a seventy-five-
cent dinner and had just finished the
soup course when he was told to get
down to the Waterwitch pronto. The
newspaper man was told to make a
quick hike if he wanted to take moon
light boating trip, and he had to leave
his own dinner and run.
Then the doctor had been called to
hustle and he dashed down to the wharf
in his auto. The start was made for
the Manchu. Everybody ON beth
launches held their collective breaths
when they saw the vessel starting up
the channel without waiting for pra-
tique. Both launches headed for the
big boat and it looked for a moment
as if shot would be fired across the
incoming steamer s bows, when it was
discovered that. instead OF being the
Manchu Maru. she was merely the Ku.
kui Nut returning from a twenty-four
hour trip TO Kauai where Lieut.. Hous-
ton. U.S.N, inspected the lighthouses.
The Manchu is yet to be reported.

FORGETFULNESS
TOUCH On WALL
Mayor Neglects to Tell the
Sheriff of Permission
Granted.

Because Mayor Fern neglected to
inform Sheriff jarrett that he had
given man permission to run an auto
up over Tantalus road, several brands
of mix-up have developed in police cir
cies, and a substantial citizen of the
community will have to appear in the
police court today in response to a
penal summons.
DIR. o. E. Wall is the man who finds
himself in the peculiar predicament.
The Sheriff is sorry but he says that
he was simply enforcing the law. The
Mayor is remorseful and evidently
feels the most discontinue of any of
the three.
Late Thursday afternoon, DIR. Wall
had patient to take to Tantalus. The
man was quite sick and it was essen
tial that he be gotten there as rapid
" as possible and at the same time
with the minimum of physical diseom-
fort. To take the sick man up in a
horse drawn vehicle was plainly i'm
practicable On the other hand, there
is an ordinance barring motor vehi-
c1es from the Tantalus road.
In his quandary DR.. Wall hied him
to the Mayor He found Chairman
Quinn in consultation with His Honor,
and to the two officials he explained the
case. Evidently both thought that the
ordinance might well be suspended I'M
der the circumstances, for Fern gave
the permission and Quinn made no OBJ
lection.
Therefore Dr. Wall started for Tan
talus with his patient But on the way
he was seen by General Davis, who at
once communicated with Sheriff Jar
rett. Jarrett knew nothing of any
suspension of the ordinance, and
promptly issued penal summons. DR..
Wall was taken into custody. He
descended upon the Mayor in wrath.
The Mayor hurriedly communicated
with the Sheriff It was too, late Wall
will respond to the summons today, but
the ease will probably be nolle-prosed.

HORROR THE WORST
THAT HAS BEEN KNOWN FOR YEARS
ALMOST KILLED
BY KOREANS
A. W. Taylor, Whose Life was
Sought, Here on the
Nippon.

When the first lot of Koreans were
brought to Honolulu several years ago
to work in the sugar fields of the Ha-
waiian Islands, A. w. Taylor, a Cana
dian-American resident of Korea. came
here with them to look after their DIS
tribution. While here he had an ex-
perienee which almost cost him his life,
and yet he says that the Korean, when
you know him and speak his language,
is most docile creature and easily
handled Mr.. Taylor arrived last even
ing on the Nippon Maru on his way
to the Coast.
The Koreans gave notes of hand in
Korea for various debts and these were
to be collected here. Mr.. Taylor among
other duties, was to make the colIec-
tons and came here partly for that
purpose He visited Eva plantation on
one of these rounds, his collectors hav-
ing failed to make good. A mob of
about two hundred Koreans met him
and belabored him with cordwood and
anything that could be used as wea-
pom. Mr.. Taylor was severely injured
and was laid up for repairs for some
time.
s'The Koreans had heard that there
was no law in this country" said Mr..
Taylor last evening, "and they felt
they could do anything they liked. In
their own country they are more docile
because the law there resorts to tor
ture.'
Mr. Taylor was curious to know
whether the Koreans had remained
here, he having heard that large
number had gone to the Coast.
A. w. Taylor and W. W. Taylor are
both aboard the Nippon en- route to
the mainland Their father recently
died in Korea.
