George Hanker, an Old Sailor, Passes Away. George Hanker, a German seafaring man who has occupied a room over Holmes' warehouse at the foot of Waianuenue street, died at Hilo Hospital Saturday night. Deceased resided in Hilo for a number of years and was quite a well known character. He was a familiar figure around Waianuenue street and frequently entertained his acquaintances with yarns of his experiences while before the mast. Some years ago he was one of the crew of the bark "Wandering Minstrel," Captain Walker, that was wrecked on Midway Island.

Very little of the stock of stores was saved and the party which included Captain Walker, his wife and three sons, in addition to the crew suffered severe privations. They were on the island for about a year before being rescued by the schooner Norma. During this time a murder was committed and an attack was made by one of the sailors 011 the family of the captain. Hanker defended the children drove the assailant off. During the months the party was 011 the island Hanker, as far as possible, lived the life of recluse occupya barrel as a sleeping place and keeping away from the rest of the men.

He rendered valuable assistance in building a boat with which to send two of the men to Honolulu to notify the Government of the wreck. That port was not made on account of adverse winds and the two men landed at one of islands in the Sonth Pacific. After being rescued later by the Norma Hanker and the rest of the party landed in Honolulu. He afterwards settled in Hilo where he supported himself doing odd jobs of agricultural or garden work. Lately his health failed and he gradually became weak and emaciated though he was provided with money and comforts by kind hearted people.

Last week it was decided to send him to the hospital as it seemed impossible to keep him in his room. This was done on Thursday and on Sunday he died. 46 Place Your Order Now." of Chicago, Ill. Special Terms to Agents. 18-4 For the memorial edition of our late President, Hon.

1-tf Fatal Railroad Wreck. HONOLULU, Dec. coast papers contain the account disastrous wreck on the Wabash railroad. Two trains met in head end collision and as far as can be learned 100 persons were taken from the ruins dead and 150 more or less wounded, some of them fatally. The Japauese woman on Front street who was found last week suffering from poison died on Saturday night.

From inquiries made by the Sheriff's office it appears that deceased and her husband had quarreled during the day when the woman took the poison. From this fact it was thought possible that the man may have administered the dose but this the woman, between paroxysms of pain strenuously denied. She told Sheriff Andrews that she had been drinking and that she drank from the bottle of poison thinking it was saki. The statements made by the man were rather conflicting and it was concluded by the Sheriff that he was dodging the truth. As there were witnesses to the assault on the wife he was arrested on that charge.

In the meantime there has been mortem and a coroner's inquest 011 'the body of the woman the particulars of which are not available as the case is to be continued on Sunday. ust.
