trainer says that Maui is improving
wonderfully, and getting into proper
condition for the dig race meet
There are number of people who
declare that the Maui horse did not
have fair chance to do his best on
Thanksgiving Day. The horse was
not fitted out properly, say the ex-
perts, and the driving was not too
good.
Although Maui is not thought to
have chance of defeating Harold
d. in the best out of five heats, the
horse is trotting very nicely now,
and will show up much better than
on the day of the last race.

Many Thefts
Reported

Several robberies have been re-
ported lately in Wailuku, and the
thefts have been daring ones.
Houses have been entered, and
money and other valuables taken.
One place on Market street was
robbed during the week, and it is
alleged that good haul was made
by the burglars.
In most cases, however, it was
food and clothing that disappeared.
The thieves appear to watch their
opportunity, and when the house,
holder leaves, the robberies are
committed.
The police are alert in matter,
and number of suspicious charact-
ers who came to Wailuku within the
past couple of weeks, are being
closely watched.

Fine Rains
On ". Maui

Heavy rains fell on West Maui
during last week, and all the creeks
came down full to the banks.
Around Lahaina way the road that
lead to Wailuku was under water
in places, and some automobiles
had hard job to get through with
their loads. In a couple of places
the water was flowing over the
wooden bridges, and debris was
choking up the waterways.
There was a dry stretch along
the Pail road for some miles in the
direction of McGregors' Landing,
but after that place was passed, the
heaviest rain of many months was
encountered by those people who
travelled over the road last Monday
night.
The rain has done an immense
amount of good and the plantation
men are smiling still.

order. The post Office is in the
building of the Kipahulu Sugar
Company, and the thought of any
burglars ever attempting to rob the
Federal office, has never entered
the head of anybody.
The amount of money stolen can
not at present be learned, but it is
thought that it is not very much.
Stamps to the amount of fifteen or
twenty dollars were in the safe, and
there was a sum of money paid for
orders. As the records and books
have also disappeared, the total loss
cannot at present be ascertained.
The police theory is that at least
two men were concerned in the rob-
berry, The safe was too big for one
man to carry very far. The officers
expect to find the safe hidden in
some retired spot, or thrown over
some bluff.
The deputy sheriff is out hunting
for the robbers and at any time the
trail may be struck.

Many Kiddies
Made Happy

Yesterday afternoon there was a
Joyous time down at Spreckelsville
and Puunene Schools. The good
time was made possible through the
donations of good hearted people
and the children of the schools at
those places had few happy hours.
Presents of all kinds were given the
children, and each little tot stagger-
ed away under load that must
have seemed like a dream to the
babes.
At Spreckelsville there was large
gathering of school children and
parents of the youngsters. All the
scholars were dressed in their best
clothes and the scene was a bright,
happy one. The parents looked on
in delight and, altogether, it was a
fine sight.
Then, at Puunene, there was an
other gathering of school children
and the scene was duplicate of the
one further down the line. The
kids were all given presents and toys,
and eatables of all sorts were hand
ed out.

One child is dead and two others
are injured through being stricken
by car No. 284, driven by Manuel
Martins, Jr., of Kahului. The
accident happened yesterday morn
irg and the scene was laid at Puu-
meme. The boy who was killed
was named Gigo Gilera De Fey,
seven years old, and he was a
Spaniard.
1t appears that the boys were
having a good time after the dis
tribution of Christmas presents at
the school, and were blowing horns
and playing drums on the road
just about three hundred yards
from the Puunene school. The
children numbered about forty,
and they were vending their way
toward the Clubhouse.
Martins was coming down the
road with passenger and he de-
clares that he footed his horn as he
approached the mob of children.
When within a few yards of the
youngsters, several of the kids ran
directly in front of the automobile.
Three children were stricken and
Knocked down.

Kipahulu Post Office
Robbed On Wednesday.

One of the most daring robberies
that has taken place in these islands
for some time past was that which
deprived the Kipahulu post office
of its safe containing stamps, coin
and records. The robbery took
place last Wednesday night, and
the burglars even took the small, /,
old fashioned safe along with them.
No signs of the men who did the
trick were found up to the time of
our going to press.
1t appears that the post office
is run by the School Inspector. His
assistant went to the post office at
at half.past two o'clock on Wednes-
day afternoon, and at once noticed
that one of the windows was open.
Investigation showed that the office
safe had been removed and that the
place had been ransacked.
On locking up before leaving the
post office on Tuesday afternoon, it
was seen that everything was in

Chinese Tires
OF Living

On Saturday last "A gruesome dis
covery was made by some children
who were playing around dry taro
patch just off High street. The
youngsters found a man hanging by
his neck to a branch of tree. The
alarm was turned in at once, and
several people wended their way to
the spot. The man, who turned out
to be a Chinese, was cut down and
it was seen that he dead.
1t was clear case of suicide, and
the cool way in which the man went
about the matter proved that he was
determined to end his life. A long
bandana handkerchief was the
means to attain his end, and the
man had slowly strangled himself
by throwing his, weight onto the
cloth.
The Chinese was well known
character and had for a long time

man of about sixty years of age and
was not strong by any means. An
inquest was held and a verdict OF
suicide was returned by the coroner's
