Fire. Visits
Wailuku
Two Buildings Burned And
Much Damage Done.

three fires during three successive
nights and the last one was IA serious
escape from destruction of the whole
of Market street.
On Thursday evening a fire alarm
was sent in that called out the
volunteer fire company. 1t was
found that lamp had been over
turned and small blaze started in
the Higashi Hotel. The following
evening fire started in the Maui
Shinbun and bad fire was narrow
ly averted by the prompt action OF
Captain Charles Lake.
1t was about midnight of Satur-
day that an alarm of fire was given
and a large blaze discovered in the
Moritaki bath house which is just
back of the Aloha Saloon. Just as
the blaze was discovered Morouna
passed Market street in his passen-
ger automobile. He displayed ex-
cellent judgement in going at once
at full speed to the fire station and
backed up just as Joseph F. Welch
and J. l.. Coke reached the station.
The two fremen jumped into the
auto and took hold of the steering
handles of the fire hose wagon.
There was no means of making the
wagon fast. The men drew the
wagon after the auto that was put
to full speed toward the fire. Down
Main street they fairly flew. There
was no brake on the hose wagon
while the grade is one of six per
cent and smooth. Moruono took
desperate chances of having his
machine smashed by the heavy
wagon but succeeded in reaching the
fire without damage.
In three minutes from the time
the hose wagon left the fire station
it is estimated the water was play
ing on the fire while the distance
travelled was almost half a mile.
At the fire Welch and Coke were
joined by c. ID. Lufkin, Sheriff SAT-
ferry, George B. Schrader and Barney
Joy and Joseph O'Brien, both of
the latter being from Honolulu, and
each of the men rendered valuable
service to the town.
There were many local people who
did every thing possible to assist
while many used such bad judge
ment that their efforts were a de-
cided detriment instead of a gain.
A number Of the men broke down
doors of houses that were not des-
troyed and damaged much of the
contents of the building. This can
not be charged up to lack of discip-
line on the part of the firemen for
the reason that there were but two
or three firemen present.
Three buildings were burned to
the ground and others were seriously
damaged. w. T. Robinson estimates
his lost at $1,000, Hota $500, Hi
gashi $3.50, Morotaki $400, Pomba
and Ferreira $3.50, while many
others sustained losses that would
probably bring the loss up to about
$1,000.
Had there been any wind it is
certain that all of Market street
would have gone.
The fire hose has proven to be one
of the best investments the county
has ever made. Too much can not
be said in praise of Mourono and
the men who fought the fire to a
finish and especially should Wailuku
remember the services of Barney
Joy and Joe O'Brien.

Officers
CoelhO Overwhelmingly De-
feated for Fire Chief.

The self styled Fire Marshall of
Maui, William j. Coelho got what
was coming to him Tuesday even
ing at the hands of the fire com.
panies of Wailuku and Kahului.
Coelho was up for re election for
chief engineer of the fire company
He wrote to friend to postpone
the election until Wednesday in
order that ne might be present.
His friend wrote him that he could
MT get the election postponed but
that his (Coelho's) election was as
sured.
When the votes were counted it
was found that Coelho had receiv-
ed hut one vote from Kahului and
but four from the Wailuku Fire.
men. Joseph F. Welch was the
man who carried the day. His
election was well merited one.
| Mr.. Welch has been a most valu-
able man at every fire that Wailu.
ku has had here for many years.
He is cool and is ever ready to do
his part without fear or expecta-
ton of reward. He lives and works
by the fire station and is always
where he can render almost in
slant assistance in case of need.
1t has been the misfortune of
Coelho not to have seen fire in
Wailuku for number of years if
at all. There have been many
fires but Coelho was never present.
His family lives in Honolulu but
where he lives no one seems to
know.
He has succeeded in getting ap.
preparations for the fire company
and considerable equipment that
is of value but to every thing was
u string. Even his own friends
did not claim for him that he was
not working for his own interests
more than for the public. His re-
ports and requlsitions were redicu.
lous and his official acts spectacu-
lar.
The defeat of Coelho means that
many of those who have withdrawn
from the fire company will again
be members and one of the
strongest fire organizations in the
territory will be the lot of Maui.
The officers elected were Chief
Engineer Joseph F. Welch, First

regular monthly meeting on the
afternoon CT Wednesday July 7th,
while County Clerk W. F. Kaae,
after the Chairman had raped for
order. proceeded merrily to read
some twenty pages or so of the
minutes of the previous session.
1t took near three quarters of an
hour to dispose of the minutes and
communications were taken up.
President f. A. Mott-Sm.ith of
the Board of Health sent in a
letter enclosing correspondence in
reference to the management and
the affairs of the Malulani Hos
pital. There were five Franciscan
Sisters doing the work of the hos
pital, three of them receiving All
allowance for the work and two
receive none Furthermore the
Catholic Mission pays $500 a
month for the board of each of
these last two. Hon. w. O. Smith
gave an account of the bringing of
the Sisters out here to do charit-
able work during the Gibson re-
gime, when Rev. Father Leonor
went to the headquarters of the
franciscan Sisters in Syracuse,
New York, and returned with the
Sisters in Oct. 1888. Besides those
domiciled IN the Malulani Hos
pital, several of the sisters are
stationed at the Leper Settlement,
Molokai, and three at the Kalihi
kapiolani Home, Honolulu, charg-
ed with the care of bringing up the
non-leprous daughters of lepers
sent there from the Leper Settle
ment.

appinted board of trustees to
manage the affairs of the hospital.
