ULUA OFF MAUI
ARE BITING LIKE
LAHA|NA SHELTERS

A l6-pOund dolphin and a four pound
barracuda was the catch of a party of
game fishermen who went out yesterday
in the fishing sampan Dixie Maru, and
which consisted of Gerrit p. Wilder
John Fleming, H. II. Carter of Boston
and Harold L. Norris.
Carter caught the dolphin and Wild
er accounted for the kaku or barracuda
both fish being taken off Diamond
Head.
The day was unfavorable for fishing,
there being a southerly wind and no
sea. Only two strikes were received in
the course of the day.
David Fleming, the well known Maui
polo player, and recent convert to game
fishing, writes his brother John Elem.
ing, from the HOnolua ranch, asking
that he procure him large reel, his
own having burned out.
1.-THE ulua here are biting like La
haina mosquitoes, he wrote, "and my
reel is too small for the really big ones.
As a result ! have lost about four fish
lately which would have made your eyes
open.
81 saw q big swOrdfsh in the~chan-
mel the other day near Kahului, and a
school of seven little ones. The big one
| am richer by 800 yards of line and
a hook saved.
Fleming stated that Judge Edings is
the latest sportsman on Maui to take up
game fishing.

Honolulu has n fine street car seT-
vice, there being twenty seven miles Of
line. Employees are the best paid street
railway workers in the world, they re.
ceiving forty-fve cents an hour for
their services. This is probably due to
the fact that all earnings above a Ger
tain sum go into the public treasury.
