"The cattle shipments grew to
such an extent within two years

fat steers were shipped to market.
Over 10000 head were shipped
in one year from the Tulsa stock

"The fur and pelt business was
no small item. When the Indians

Man Into Sea
Sh arks Complete
> Awful Tragedy
OFF I Waianae .

A gruesome story of the sea
comes from Makus, near Waia-
nae, a famous fishing ground.
Last Sunday night three Japanese
G. Inaba, K, Hayashi and Y, Ma
kamura, set out in sampan to
fish for ulua. All the evening they
fshed, but with little success. 1t
was the giant ulua that the fisher
men were after, great fish which
pull like a bullock.
Along about midnight Hayashi
and Nakamura slept while Inaba
watched the lines. Inaba, after a
while, became drowsy, and tieing
a line round his waist, joined his
companions in slumber.
That was the last seen of Inaba.
The other Japanese say that
they were awakened by frantic
cries for help in the distance,
which cries grew further and fur
ther distant. Then there was the
noise of a great splashing, a
blood-curdling shrek and all was
still.
1t is believed that the hook on
Inaba's line was seized by a mon
sterr ulua which pulled the unfor-
Itunate man out of the boat by the
impetus of its first rush, and that
the sharks, with which the sur
rounding waters abound, did the
rest.
Ulua have been taken off Ma
kua weighing as much as $50
pounds.
