wAYsoN AGGRESSION
fContinned from pase IL

was In the house with his family knew
nothing about the attempt made on
his life, II such 1t was, before the po-
lice notified him thereof. He and
his wife had, however, frequently dur.
Ing the past few days heard shooting
around the house, and once Mrs. Way.
son was hit by a spent bullet, bu
they always contributed the shooting
to the new rife gallery back Of the
house, and paid no attention to 1t.
DIR. Atcherley had rome time ago
called on wayson and upbraided him
with being his enemy. Some time
ago he went to the police station and
told Clerk Iaukea that he had heard
voices from the sewer which warned
him against wayson.
Dr. Atcherley was ,laen to the po.
lice station. where he is now being
held for an investigation as to his san.
ity, which is being conducted by DR..
Emerson. Mrs. Atcherley came to the
police station this morning, and was
much excited. She had received
note from her husband, asking for
syringe and some POWDER" which she
said meant cocaine. Emerson had, she
said, given Atcherley chloral. which
was Injurious to him. Her husband
she claimed was not a hapitual user
OF morphine. He used cocaine.
Mrs. Atcherley was greatly opposed
to the steps which were being taken to
prove the doctor insane, and asked At
torney Lightfoot to assist her. Light
foot said that he would see that, at
least, her husband was not railroaded
Into the insane asylum. Under the
law Atcherley can ask for jury trial
and Sheriff Jarrett has asked the City
and County Attorney for his advice In
regard to what steps should he taken.
The most sensational new develop.
inent Is, however, the fact that the
Atcherleys accuse DIR. Wayson of be.
ing the aggressor. Mrs. Atcherley
said this morning that wayson had
been prowllng about their house
Thursday. Friday and Saturday night,
and that It was In the attempt to
fcare him of that the shooting oc.
Cured.
Last Thursday night, she said. some.
one knocked Mt their door at an early
hour OF the morning. She answered
and called DR.. Atcneriey. who went
out to investigate. He returned short
ly and told his wife that he could find
no one. She went outside and both
she and the doctor saw DIR. wayson
hiding behind mango tree. When
they approached he ran of. The fol.
lowing night a similar occurrence took
place. says Mrs. Atcherley, and on
Saturday night DIR. Atcherley actually
fired shot at Wayson in his own yard
before he pursued him to the wayson
house, where he completed the shoot
ing.
| Mrs. Atcherley named DR.. Camp as
one who had heard the flrst shot fred
by Atcherley, but DR.. Camp stated to
day that he was In the Grill at the
time the shooting occurred, and hat
as consequence heard nothing. DIR
Camp, whose Office In in the same yart
as the Atcherley house, on Emma 1
little above Beretania street, STATED
that DR.. Atcherley had for some tim,
past been under the illusion that some
one was trying to steal his secret. III,
took no stock in the story about Way
sons midnight calls, and, as matte
OF fact, no one else has been foun,

COMING OF GOONEYS.

Captain Black, the veteran skip
PER. who is regarded as one OF the
most weather-wise men in the ISL
ands, predicts the coming of heavy
south westerly storm, probably such
one rs Hawaii luckily sees only
once in a decade or even less fire.
quently.
"The gooneys have come" said the
Captain. Lots of them were seen at
Waikiki yesterday, and they only
come south of the thirteth degree
when there Is q heavy Southwestern
coming. The last time recollect
seeing them here was in 1883, just
before the famous big Kona storm. y
Although the Kona wind which
has been prevailing for some time,
has not done much damage la the
outer districts, 1t is generally ex-
pected that something worse will be
experienced during the next few
days.
According to the weather observer
Il is to be surmised that the konn has
been felt more severely on Hawaii
than here. Unless the conditions
change for the better. the genuine
kona will bring heavy rains, strone
wind, and floods, which will keep the
employees of the road department
busy for some time.
No reports OF material damage
have been received from the outside
districts. The railroads are reported
safe and unchanged. The telephone
and electric wires are In position.

ODDITIES OF THE GRIDIR0N
Remarkable Plays That Have En-
livened the Winter Sport Ex-
cIusively American.

In the fall of 1899 Young, the Cor
nell quarterback, received bad bump
on the head during the first half of
one of the early games and was so
dazed that he gave the signal for the
same playa tackle buck-eight
times in succession The rival eleven,
unable to comprehend such general
ship, or rather lack of it, became just
as bewildered as the injured quarter
back and In the effort to understand
the unintelligible, let the Cornell
backs through for quick touchdown.
The calling out of numbers while
the opposing quarterback is trying to
give his team the signal for the next
play has resulted in numerous tan
giles. In one of the recent Army and
Navy contests the quarterback of the
latter eleven became so confused in
one instance when the Army players
were shouting out various numbers
while he was trying to direct the next
play that he actually gave his men
one of the series of numbers the Army
men were suggesting. The incompre-
hensible signal and the subsequent
mixup may be better imagined than
explained

by the light that danced in his eyes
as Kitty came up, that, whatever her
faults might be, he adored her.
I've got that job in the city, if
want it," he said as they walked on
together.
Are you going to take it?"

he asked anxiously.
