DISASTROUS FIRE

About 3 O'Clock in the morning
of Thursday last fire broke out in
one of the apartments of the almost
continuous block between Hamano's
store and the Nawiliwili stream, in
Nawiliwili, and in a short time all
of the buildings in that section were
reduced to ashes.
The principal buildings destroyed
were The ice cream parlor and
general store of Nakashima; the
general store of Sung Fook Lung;
the premises of H. Matsumoto,
chauffeur for the Nawiliwili garage;
the tailoring establishment of M.
Nakao, and the Aloha Hotel, Of
which Higuchi is the proprietor.
When the alarm Of fire was given
all the residents of the locality turn
ed out The buildings were old and
dry, however, and, worst of all, the
water mains failed; and what little
water was available was used to pre-
vent the spread of the flames across
the street and to the building next
to the Hamano store. Men with
brooms and bucket brigade saved
the Hamano store and checked the
fire at that point.
There was great excitement when
the Aloha Hotel went down, for the
fire was then at its hottest and it
seemed certain that the buildings
across the road would also be ignit-
ed The bucket brigade proved,
however, equal to the occasion.
Sung Fook Lung store, in the
basement of which the fire started,
carried insurance on the stock of
merchandise. A. r. Gurrey, Ter
ritorial insurance adiuster, who now
lives at Makaweli, has spent much
of the time since the fire in Lihue
and Nawiliwili, investigating the
cause and for the purpose of adjust
ing the claim of the storekeeper.

Forbes And Wharves

The Star Bulletin has the follow
ing to say concerning the results of
the recent visit of Superintendent
Forbes to Kauai:
Charles r. Forbes, superinten-
dent of public works, returned Sat
urday morning from Kauai where
he was inspecting the island with a
view to needed improvements to be
brought up at the next legislature.
Forbes stated that he found neces-
sity for eight miles of homestead
roads on the Garden Island and
that he will recommend appropria-
tions for them. He will file a report
with the commissioner of public
lands.
Waterfront Improvements which
he considered while on the island
were several in number, including
a wharf at kapaa to handle home
stead cane. Several bridges will be
necessary in the road construction
as planned and armories at Wal
mea and Lihue are also much de-
sired,

FILIPINO SHOOTS
TWO IN HANAPEPE

Hanapepe was the scene at about
1880 yesterday afternoon of another
Filipino murder, and great excite
ment prevailed in the little town
the rest of the day and last night.
The name of the man killed was
Dionicio Palad, and t h e badly
wounded party is Agaton. In the
Waimea Jail is Francisco Esquilo,
who is charged by the police with
shooting both men.
Sheriff Rice rushed to the scene
Immediately after the shooting and
empanelled coroner's jury to in
quire into the cause of death of Dio-
nicio.
The tragedy occurred in a house
next to the japanese school, in Ha-
napepe. 1t appears that the wife
of Francisco Esquilo was sent to
Honolulu on Saturday, and a rumor
was around that Palad and Agaton
had sent her away. Esquilo called
Oh the two men to know if the story
was correct, but both disclaimed
any knowledge Of the disappearance
of the woman. 1t is alleged that
Esquilo pretended to leave but as
matter of fact stopped outside and
heard the two men talking together
about sending the woman away.
1t is claimed that Esquilo then
went to a store in Hanapepe where
he purchased a 32-calibre revolver
and cartridges. Returning to the
house he charged the men with
sending his. wife away and fight
.ensA&d in which there is discon-
nected story of a knife play. In
the melee, Esquilo is alleged to
have opened fire. Dionicio Palad
was shot twice, the last bullet en-
tering the neck and passing upward
into the brain, causing death. The
man Agatun was also shot twice,
the first time in the arm and the
second in the neck. He is IN the
Waimea hospital.
A Filipino officer called Arizo-
ma" arrested the alleged murderer
and took him to Waimea.

ELEELE FOLK HAVE
A CHURCH DINNER

The promised church dinner of
the Eleele Union church, which was
organized a few months ago, came
off on Friday evening last at the
home of Captain and Mrs. Leavitt,
of Port Allen All the members of
the church, together with two or
three specially invited guests, sat
down at the long table in the spa
cious lanai, overlooking the sloping
lawn and the moonlit sea. The din
ner was a delicious one, with some
toothsome dainties as one gets only
in private homes where good cook
ing prevails; while many a good
story and much sparkling repartee
went the rounds.
After the dinner-things were clear
ed away, the balance of the evening
was devoted to the discussion of the
affairs Of the church, and the more
complete elaboration of plans for
activity, with the pastor, Rev. J..
M. Lydgate, in the chair. Mr.. .Chas.
F. Loomis was elected Deacon; Mrs.
r. ID. Moler and Miss Janet Hastie,
Deaconesses, and Mr.. X. Roendahl
choir leader. Committees on finance,
music, membership and church at
tendance were also appointed.
Provision was made for regular
quarterly church meetings for the
consideration Of business, the hear
ing of reports, and the furthering
of the interests of the church.
The matter Of more frequent SER
vices came up for discussion, and it
was felt that in default of regular
weekly service a class for bible study
wu,ld be profitable and enjoyable.
A committee was appointed to con-
slider and report on this matter.

COMING SALE OF
RED CROSS STAMPS

During this week the Red Cross
stamps will be put on sale on Kauai.
These stamps are issued every year
at about Christmas time by the
American Red Cross Society, and
the proceeds from their sale are used
in the fight against tuberculosis.
1919 is returned to the source to
cover expenses of printing, distri-
button, ETC., and 80 20 is used local
ly. The sales here in previous years
have ranged between 800 and 5000.
It il hoped this year to far exceed
tHis amount, for with the coming
of the new tuberculosis hospital
there will be many needs to meet.
There is also a growing need OF a
local nurse for each district of the
island to do general nursing as well
as to follow up tubercular cases in
camps and schools.
Would it be possible to make the
fund this year large enough to form
the nucleus of fund for Kauai
District Nursing Association?
The sale will be conducted by
Mrs. Chas. A. Rice.
