~ nee on a time in queer little
~ town
On the shore Of the Zuyder
Zee,
When all the good people were fast
asleep,
A strange thing happened to me.
Alone the night before Christmas,
sat by the glowing fire,
Watching the fame as it rose and
fell,
While the sparks shot higher and
higher.
Suddenly one of the sparks began
To flicker and glimmer and wink
Like big, bright eye till hardly
knew
What to do or to say or to think.
Quick as fash it changed to a face,
And what in the world did see
But dear old Santa Claus nodding
his head
And waving his hand to me!
ooh, follow me, follow mel" soft he
cried,
And up through the chimney with
him
mounted, not daring to utter
word
Till we stood on the chimney's
rim.
"Now, tell me, I beg you, dear
Santa Claus,
Where am going with you?"
He laughingly answered: "Why,
don't you knowF
To travel the wide world through.
''FrOm the crystal palace, far in the
/ north,
have come since dark, and see
These curious things for the little
folk
Who live on the Zuyder Zee"
Then, seating himself in his rein
deer sledge
And drawing me down by his side,
He whistled, and off on the wings
of the wind
We few for midnight ride.
But first such comical presents he
left
For the little Dutch girls and
boys
Onions and sausages, wooden faced
dolls,
Cheese and gingerbread toys,
Soldiers that marched at the word
of command,
Necklaces, bracelets and rings,
Tiny gold watches, all studded with
gems,
And hundreds of exquisite things.
Straight to America then, where I,
Perched on chimney high,
Watched him scramble and hustle
about
Between the earth and sky.
Many stocking he filled to the
brim,
And numberless Christmas trees
Burst into bloom at his magical
touch.
Then all of sudden breeze
Caught US and bore away to the
south
And afterward blew us out went,
And never till dawn peeped over the
hills
Did we stop for a moments rest.
Christmas is comingp he whis-
pered to me.
"You can see his smile in the sky.
1 wish merry Christmas to all the
world.
My work is over. Goodbye
Like fash he was gone, and I was
alone,

WAILUKU, Jan. 1S.-The fiercest

kamaainas think the fiercest and pos
itively the most destructive ever,
broke over Maui early Sunday after

when dangerous limit had been
reached Wailuku was favored by a
cloudburst and in less than an hour
the lao river, running through the
town of Wailuku, had reached such
proportions that the water spread and
broke over the Waihee side of the re-
tanning wall, just mauka of the Wailu-
ku bridge, inundating and wrecking
the entire Oriental business section
on both sides of the street.
Until the two piers under the
county bridge gave way the torrential
stream of water piled up against it at
times threatening to carry the steel
bridge with it. Finding the Waihee
side of the retaining wall weakest the
maddening waters tumbled over its
side and swept before it and out to
sea 12 stores. warehouses, dwellings,
stables-in fact everything in it's way.
The occupants of these quarters, who
had not thought the cioudburst so Sc
rious and had not taken the warning
of others fleeing for safety, had their
lives snuffed out. Man, beast, houses,
trees and wreckage of all kinds surg

From the time of the flooding until

ers were low enough not to endanger

searching parties to recover the bod

Wailuku Maui)

Wailuku, Maui)
WAltUkU Maui, Jan. 18.-With a
weeks interval Of comparatively fair
weather, attempting to efface the
traces of the late New Years storms,
Wailuku has again been hit by howl
ing kona gale, which resulted last
Monday night in dealing the town the
worst blow experienced in it3 history.
Commencing during the evening tine
wind and rain increased in violence
until by 2 or 8 a. m. the downpour
resembled nothing less than cloud
burst, filling the lao river bed and
forcing the old stream way beyond its
usual peaceful course. To an accom-
paniment Of thunder and lightning the
waters sweiled to such an extent as
to undermine the foundations of the
many scattered dwellings in the val
ley, and by 6 a. m. the flood was
sweeping everything within its reach
towards death and destruction.
Daylight, finally arriving, showed
the havoc wrought by the raging tor
rent, and it proved sight long to be
remembered by all Wailuku people.
The river had broken away from its
old bed, and almost every house met
with along its new course was swept
away and carried along, some whole,
with even lamps still burning, and
some in thousand pieces. IL was a
most pitiful sight to see the more for
