Man Drowned
While Fishing
Hawaiian Lost Life Near Power
House Warm When
Found.

Through an unfortunate accident
on d he beach, near the power house
of the Electric Light Company, a
young Hawaiian man was drowned
at half-past eight on Thursday
morning. The unfortunate's body
was recovered about twenty minutes
after the man had disappeared from
sight and every effort was made to
revive life. A hurry call to the
police station brought the automo-
bile to the beach, and the corpse
was taken to the Malulani Hospital,
where further efforts were made to
resuscitate the man. All was in
vain, and life was pronounced to be
extinct. An inquest was held, and
the jury returned a verdict that
Mokuhalii, the Hawaiian, had met
his death through accidental drown
ing.
1t appears that the man and some
other men went fishing from the
beach and that MOkuhalii went too
far out in the breakers, which were
running very high. He was seen
to lose his footing and to be over
thrown by the waves. The under
tow, evidently, then caught him
and he disappeared from the sight
of his companions.
The alarm was turned in to the
police station and the Sheriff and
Deputy Sheriff raced down to the
scene of the accident. In few
minutes the body was found, and,
as it was still warm, it was thought
that there was n chance of saving
the mans life. By the time the
hospital was reached, however, life
was extinct and nothing could be
done to save the man.

Amateur Cuts
Into Message
Paia Wireless Got Excited Over
FanCied IS. O. S."
Call.

There is an amateur wireless
station somewhere near Paia, and
the other day the operator caused
much excitement when he caught
what he thought was the IS. O.
S. ~ signal of distress from the oil
tanker Santa Maria. The vessel
was some hours out from Kahului,
OH her way to Hilo, when the anna
teur wireless man began to cut in
and listen to a message.
The amateur became excited and
rang up Kahului, and gave out the
Information that the Santa Maria
was in trouble of some sort. That
telephone message stirred things
up a lot \and the agents at Kahului
began to start something in the
way of rescue\work.
In the meantime the professional
wireless station att Lahaina was
gotten into touch with by telephone,
and Operator Ralston was asked to
call the Santa Maria and \see what
was wrong. Ralston soon got the
steamer and was informed that all
was we'll on board, and that the
messages sent out were ordinary
business ones that had nothing to
do with any pilikia. 1t then dawn
ed on the Maui people that the
amateur wireless operator had fail
ed to read correctly some message
sent out by the Santa Maria
operator, and that he had fancied
that he heard the IS. O. S." call
which is so dreadedby all operators.
There is a stiff fine for any amateur
who butts in on regular messages.

Especial Correspondence. }

HONOLULU, Dec. 5.-Well, the
lightning has struck where good
many thought it would, and still not
a few believed it would miss. Pink
ham is governor of Hawaii and
there is said to be a rattling among
the bones of some of the office
holders. In The Advertiser ON Sun
day, or was it in the Star Bulletin
on Saturday, Superintendent Cald-
well is quoted as believing Governor
Pinkham is just about right. |
think Caldwell's appointment comes
from the governor. There may be
other active patriots who believe as
Caldwell does. | talked with Mr..
Waller on Saturday, just after the
news came that the candidate had
been confirmed by a vote of twenty
six to twenty-four. He expressed
his surprise and said he had not,
until he read the news, believed that
Pinkham would get the plum.
McCandless went further in re-
ported interview, and spoke as
though the action of Wilson and
the Senate was dead wrong. Mr..
Tenney thinks Wilson lost the
chance of his life in putting in a
republican instead of democrat
and considers it, apparently, a
weakening. All eyes are on the
wharf at this time and the scene
will shift in a few weeks to the
capitol. OF course there is a belief
that the new Official will storm the
camps of the enemy, and do what
he can to get even for their retard-
ing the confirmation as long as they
did

Big Games

Clubs.

weather permits, the second base
ball game between the All-Maui
nine and the Next" bunch, will
be played on the Wailuku diamond.
The representative team will loan a
battery to the other outfit, and an
other close and exciting game, like

plenty of practise, and there is no
doubt that the team will be in the
best possible condition when the
curtain is rung up on the big car
nival of February next.

February IA, and will be between
All-Maui and the Punahou outfit.
The second game-on the same
day-will be put up by the II kwaii
and Oahu mines. Punahou- and
Maui have met twice in the past,
and each team has win. 1t will
be interesting to see how the teams
will stack up on February IA.
The carnival committee is work
ing hard to make a success of the
Inter- Island series and there is no
doubt that there will be some fine
games played during the gay days
hext February.

work he is alert, has no time for

From this point of view, and
the best authorities agree that this

seems to me that it is of paramount
Importance for a teacher to study
how to make the school tasks inter
esting to the children. Some
teachers think that in order to
make school work interesting it
must be made easy. In their
efforts to make the work easy they
do what the pupils should do
themselves. 1t is much easier for
a teacher to do the hard work her
self than to arouse the pupils in
terest so that they will be eager to
do it.
If a teacher wishes to interest
her pupils she must give them
something interesting in an inter
esting way. She must be interest
ed herself. If teacher has a list
less don 't-care air, the most inter
esting subject will fall on dull, list
less ears; but if she is full of life
and vim, the children will be wide
awake and eager listeners. AS the

Hypnotist
Is Injured

Hypnotist Barnett, who has been
showing on Maui for some time
past, had narrow escape the
other night when he was slightly
wounded on the top of the head by
being hit by the missile that was
fired from a rifle OH the stage. The
wound was a slight one, but could
easily have been very dangerous,
if little lower.
Barnett was going through his
stunt of allowing expert rifemen
to fire at him. His stunt was to
catch the bullets in his teeth. The
act had been given several times in
Wailuku by Barnett, and there
never had been any trouble. On
this occasion, however, the hypno-
tist was seen to finch after the shot
was fired. An examination show
ed that he had been hit on the top
of the head.
The narrow escape from serious
injury has not scared Barnett, and
he is travelling all over Maui, doing
the same stunt. He shows at La
haina next week and is proceeding
to Hama later on.
