HONOLULU FIRE |ANOTHER TRANSPACIFIC STEAMER LINE OUTLINED | % z : z | 5 % : COON TRAMP MIXES IN WITH TIBURON SWELLS PERSONATES HIMSELF AT A MASKED BALL AND ALMOST CARRIES OFF FIRST PRIZE. IBURON soclety is in retirement. Full three weeks before the dictates of the church or the mandate of fashion has called time for the period of sackcloth and ashes the Tiburon lady has put on her gown of gray and refuses to see the world as viewed in a ballroom or over a cup of tea. No jolly masked ball, as is fashionable and usual, will bring the season to a close over in the little village; in fact, the mere reference to a bal masque is apt to make all Tiburon womankind faint, and thereby hangs a . tale—on which the little town has been buzzing ever since Thursday evening last. On that eventful night Foresters’ Hall was the scene of a masked ball, for which invitations were issued to a select few. John Morby, boatman, was not among the invited. However, he Lore the lady patronesses of the affair no grudge for their oversight, and when he saw a ‘““coon’” tramp hanging around &and observed how graceful he was, he forthwith asked the colored gentleman 1f he would not give the ladies a treat and go to the ball. The tramp was not proud and accepted. ‘With the aid of some excelsfor securely stowed away under his vest and an ebony mask he made his appearance at the scene of the festivities. He “per- sonated” a “‘coon.” He sang, he danced and he cakewalked, and his ‘‘colored gentleman” airs were so charmingly natural that all the ladies followed him around the hall and declared he was the best ‘‘character” present. The com- mittee agreed with the ladies and awarded the ‘‘coon tramp” the first prize. Then came the fateful midnight hour. Masks were ordered removed. The fair ones gathered around the hero of the hour, but at the first glimpse of his shiny ebony face the floor was strewn with gasping maids and hysterical ma- trons. One lady who had helped the prize-winner to readjyst his shoe, which {n the mad excitement of the dance had slipped from his long flat foot, remained unconscious for more than an hour After quiet was again restored it was decided that the “best impersonated character’” should not be awarded a prize. He escaped uninjured, although there has been some talk of a coat of tar and feathers for Mr. Morby, his so- clal sponsor, AGAINST AH SAY cinsr szamenr e DROPPED DEAD WITH A FORTUNE N HER POCKET Expired While Riding a Bicycle.

There was suppressed excitement in | Judge Conlan’s court for a few minutes Festerday morn ing when it became known officers were guarding both exits and ihat n murderer was to be arrested in open court. Ah Say, a Chinese, was arrested Thurs- day night by Sergeant Ellis on the charge of visiting a house of ill repute. He ap- peared Friday morning and was convicted and ordered to appear for sentence yes- terday morning. He had given $20 cash | ball. Sergeant Ellis and Detectives McMahon and Burke, who have been specially de- tafled in Chinatown to suppress the high- | ¢ binders, had a suspicion that Ah Say was one of the two men who murdered Wong Yuen, a carpenter, at 8% Waverly place January 6, and yesterday morning when he came into court and they heard his voice their suspicion became a certainty. | They notified acting Chief Biggy and a | guard was placed at the doors of the courtroom so that Ah Say could not es- cape. Judge Conlan was Informed that Ah Say was wanted on the charge of mur- der and he consented In the ends of jus- tice to the arrest being made In open court. As soon as Ah Say was placed under ar- rest by McMahon and Burke Attorney Mack, who represented the Chinese, raised & vigorous protest. There was no com- laint against his client and it was an un- eard of proceeding for a man to be ar- rested In open court. If his client had a revolver he would have a perfect right to use it on the officers for unlawtully de- priving him of his liberty. The Judge said that in ordinary cases If a man was arrested In court he would look upon It as contempt, but this man was accused of committing a murder and he had no hesitation In permitting his arrest in court. He instructed the officers to take the prisoner away, Ah Say was taken to ths City Prison and locked up In *“the tanks" pending fur- ther developments, as the officers declare ’M\M\A m W'W Lo ‘MAM % w{\g/gv: | that he not only murdered Wong Yuen, but two others, recently.

Elrt i WILY CHINESE SCHEME. A few nights ago Ah Ning, a conflden- tial clerk formerly in the employ of Al- bert, the leading Chinese merchant of Carson City, Nev., was arrested in China- town of this city and taken back to the Nevada capltal. He had been accused by his employer of having embezzled $3000, but has now turned the tables b{ mn.kmg sensational allegations which have caused uneasiness among Albert’s San Francisco creditors. According to Nin, tgs story his employer owes large sums of money to San Fran- cisco merchants which he'ls either unable -or unwilling to pay. After Ning had left Carson the wily Albert sought to cloak his deficlencies by the rumor that he had been robbed. He thought that Ning had departed for China nn§ could not be cap- tured, hence no one could dispute his al- leg'\lln Sheriff Kinney and deputies of Carson acted promptly, however, and the man was brought back to explain the charges azainst him. It is =aid that Albert's creditors in this city will be obliged to suffer to the ex- tent of several thousand dollars. Ning claims that $800 is still due him from the merchant.

George Costly, an Ellis-street barber, attempted to end his life last night In a fit of drunken despondency by shooting himself in the body. He wandered into Unlon-square Park about 7 o'clock and tried to send a bullet through his heart, but in his inebriated condition Costly's simply grazed his left arm. He dis- the bullet whizzed harmlessly through 'the alr. Costly was arrested and booked at the City Prison on charges of drunk- enness and discharging firearms within the city limits.
