A MAN SNAGGED BY A HOOK.–This past Saturday, some people went to Waikiki to catch flying fish by driving them into a net using their paddles [pahoe malolo]. And as usual, one of them dove down to watch the fish go in, that is what Mauhelemoku did. And the third time he dove down, there was dangling line and a hook of someone fishing. The canoe with the hook moved forward, and the mouth of that man was hooked. The one that the hook belonged to thought it was a fish and he yanked it up. The man along with the hook went came down and Dr. Hillebrand took it out. Eh! This is something new this flying fish fishing season.
