BAND OF Thugs
ARE UNMOLESTED
BY THE POLICE
PunchboM District infested;
Young Girls Assaulted With
No Protection in Sight

That q yeritable reign Of terror
is in existence in several sections or
Honolulu, principally in the Punehbowl
district, due to the operations of gangs
of men and boys, and in many cases
individual highwaymen, which infest
the districts under cover of darkness,
and whose actions time and again have
been reported to the police with abso-
lutely no response from the depart
ment, is the report which has come
to the Star-Bulletin today.
The Star-Bulletin has secured this
information from one purporting to
know the facts.
That the police of Honolulu have
paid absolutely no attention to the
repeated and persistent reports of pet
ty thefts and attempted hold-ups, is
the statement which has been made to
this paper. II is further intimated
that the peaceful residents of Punch
bowl and other districts have gotten
So used to making these reports and
having them receive no attention at
the hands OF the police. that they late
ly have taken to letting the crimes
go virtually unnoticed.
A statement comes from good au-
thority that on many occasions young
girls have been stopped while on their
way home after dark by individuals
evidently bent upon robbery or worse.
It is also said that hands composed OF
three or four persons have taken to
stopping men at night.
An instance In the former allega-
ton is brought ont in the case of a
young Russian-f'rench, girl who lives
near the federal experiment station.
While nearing her home Wednesday
evening, after coming from Waikiki
where she Is employed In a private
family, she was met by a man whom
she believes was Filipino. The girl
says that the man stopped her and
asked il she knew where certain
Japanese family lived. The girl di-
rected the man to another road, and
told him to go up that way and in
quire. ~ 4 .@.+s XIII =.
The girl says that she walked away
from the man and that he followed
her, repeating his question. When he
had addressed her for the fourth time,
she says, he grabbed hold of her. She
tore away from him and started to
run, the man following her. While
running, the girl stumbled and fell,
painfully bruising and cutting herself.
The man followed after her, she says,
and she commenced to scream. Evil
IDENTIFY fearing that the girls screams
would attract attention, and bring her
assistance, thefm ran off down the
road.
This incident declares the girl. &C.
CURED within p short distance Of her
home. ~
From the nature of this girls story.
it would appear that the police would
be aroused to some action. Attempted
crimes such as this one, when ignored
by the police, may, in time, serve to.
incite other offenses. The road lead
ing to the experiment station is with
out lights, and the attention of the
board of supervisors has been called to
this fact. jglss.ss ~=

boys. They have no business to enter

Girls have to be very careful to hold
their persons sacred and pure.
There can be no finer thing than for
a girl to hold herself for the one man,
when he comes along.
Now I am coming to the real kernel
of this letter.
You must adjust yourself to our
ideas of what is hit and proper for
you in regard to going out at night.

Illustrated Lecture on the Life of Christ

According to the plans along which
the First Christian church has been
working during the past several
months, by introducing new and novel
features into the services, thereby
eliminating the popular objection
raised by so many people who want
an excuse to remain at home, that the
services are so long dry and tedious,
an illustrated lecture will be given on
Sunday evening, the services to begin
at 1880. On several occasions hereto
fore, illustrated songs have been used
to advantage in attracting people to
the house of God, affording an oppor-
tunity to preach to many who other
wise would have either remained at
home, or sought recreation down town
or at some pleasure resort. Much in
terest has been manifested in these
songs, and, like them. the illustrated
lecture will be the first ever used in a
regular church service in Pensacola.

ONE MUST SOMETIME SIP
THE BITTER CUP.

Every one must have some sweet
dreams from which he will
awake.
He'll some time or other see his star
of nope go down,
And stern duty may find taoTns for
him instead Of crown
How oft the path to right is the hard
est enc to find!
Everyone must long for something he
will never know,
Sometimes. too. he must press the
hand Of one that's not true,
And when he learns about il he will
feel very blue;
For well we know thorns hide meath
sweetest roses that grow
Every one must some time lose the
dearest God gave him.
Some time or other he must lay his
idol away,
When all else will seem darkness till
the final day.
But faith can regain it when day
light never grows dim.
Every one has a home prepared for
him in the sky,
And sometime Jesus will come for
him and you and me,
To take US to see that place Where
many mansions be-
There we'll reclaim all loss when we
reach our home on high.
