KAUAI NEWS.

BY the steamer Iwalan we have
an interesting budget of news from
Kauai.
The storm of lost Monday des-
troycd the IIanalei bridge, and
damaged the Anahola bridge, one
pier being undermined. Waialua
bridge was carried away, not n pier
left. Waimea bridge, the largest in
the group, had three of eight spans
carried away.
Old residents said, when these
bridges were building, that they
would not stand the tests of weather
to which they would be subjected.
Mr.. Julius II. Smith, superintendent
of public works, drove from Nawili-
will to the Waialua district, and,
after viewing the desolate sites of
some bridges and the ruins of others,
drove back again and left for Homo
lulu.
Schooner Liholiho, lying in Ma
wiliwili harbor, was driven on the
rocks, where she still lies. Steamers
Iwalani and James Mallee each tried
to tow her off, but the vessel was so
high up that they could not get near
enough to get an effective pull at
her. 1t was feared she would be-
come total wreck, but the Iwalani
takes down extra gear, by which the
captain hopes to get her off.
Schooner Mary Foster was driven
on the rocks at Kekaha and lost her
rudder and portion of the
shoe, but was taken off and only
waits to be towed to Honolulu.
A raving maniac was put on board
the steamer Iwalani at Nawiliwili,
without responsible guard. Capt.
Freeman put him in charge of man
on board, who, however, had other
duties to discharge. The conse-
quence was that, on Saturday night,
the unfortunate man jumped over
board and was drowned.
Great quantities of wood have
been washed down from the noun
tains at Kekaha and bullock teams
have been carting it away for three
days.

A NEW LOCAL INDUSTRY.

A labor-saving soft soap, put up
in tins of various sizes, from one
pound upwards, manufactured and
sold by w. II. Hubby, at the turn
ing shop of w. L. Herrick, Bethel
street, is new local industry. This
soap can be used for all ordinary
washing purposes for which COM
mon soap is employed, as well as
for removing grease spots and
cleansing painted surfaces, for
which common soap is of little SER
vice. Not only does it serve all the
purposes of common soap, but the
manufacturer claims that less
quantity is needed, and that thor
ough cleansing is effected in less
time and with less labor. One
pound, which costs 61c., is said to
be sufficient for weeks washing
of family of six or eight persons.
Several housewives who have given
the article trial testify that it does
all that is claimed for it. One lady
says that formerly it took nearly
one entire day each week to do the
family washing, but now, with the
aid OF this soap, everything is on
the line in less than three hours
from the time of starting. Here,
then, is new local industry which
appeals to public patronage, and
whose merits entitle it to public
support.

FAREWELL RECEPTION.

The Rev. Alex. and Mrs. Maclsin-
tosh being about to leave Honolulu on
short visit to England, their native
land, the Bishop of Honolulu and
Mrs. Willis paid them a graceful
and well-deserved compliment by
inviting a gathering of st. Andrews
Congregation at his Lordship's resi-
dence, last Saturday afternoon, to
bid farewell to the voyagers; and
the congregation were most happy
to avail themselves of the oppor-
tunity thus afforded to testify their
affectionate regard for Mr.. and Mrs.
Macintosh, and to wish them
hearty goodbye, which everybody
sincerely hoped would not be for
long. At three o'clock the people
began to arrive, and for the follow
ing three hours continued to come
and go, some staying only few
minutes and then departing on ac-
count of pressing duties, and others
remaining until the final break-up
at six O'Clock. 1t was pleasant to
see the happy commingling of for
eigners and natives, each and all
feeling they had an equal interest in
the occasion. Some sat and chatted
under the verandahs, some found
comfortable seats and agreeable con-
verse under the large shade trees.
and others strolled around the
grounds. Their Majesties the King
and Queen honored the occasion by
their presence, and made quite a
heightened stay. Many young Ha-
waiians, who had been educated by
Mr.. Macintosh and fitted by him
for responsible positions under
Government and in business, were
also there. All were cordially and
pleasantly welcomed by the Bishop
and Mrs. Willis, and made to feel
at home. Light refreshments of the
best quality were provided without
stint. The Industrial School Brass
Band added to the pleasure of the
occasion by playing selections of
music at intervals. AS the people
took their departure-white and
native, old and young-by their
hearty Misunderstanding and their sad
expression of face, and in MANY
instances an ill-concealed tear-evi-
denced the fact that Mr.. and Mrs.
Macintosh had gained strong hold
in their hearts. And no wonder,
for their lives and deeds have been
such that they could not fail to Sc.
cure this result. Mr.. Macintosh,
as minister of the church and an
instructor of the young, has labored
earnestly, diligently, and success
fully for the good Of the community;
and Mrs. Mackintosh's works of
charity, benevolence, and friend
ship remain an enduring monument
to her praise.

ARRIVAL OF the zEALANDIA.

Having made very good passage
the S. S. Zealandia, from the Aus
tralasian Colonies, surprised Homo
lulu by arriving yesterday morning
at half-past seven, when she was not
expected before the afternoon. In
consequence, the curious crowd at
the wharf was smaller than usual
until the steamer had been in port
about two hours.
Among the passengers for this
port was Mr.. A. II. Kenyon, father
of Mr.. G. Carson Kenyon, former
editor of this paper and now Gov
eminent school teacher at Waiahole,
Oahu. Mr.. Kenyon will stay about
a month, enjoying himself in sketch
ing island scenery.

The Rev. Mr.. Macintosh had SO
many friends to give him farewell
greeting on the wharf, that he did
not get on board until almost the
last moment. He showed particular
anxiety not to miss the warm alohas
of natives who came down to bid
their good friend farewell. On the
ship Mr.. and Mrs. Macintosh and
son had busy time of it until the
whistle warned all not passengers
ashore, in exchanging goodbyes with
members of st. Andrews congrega-
ton and prominent residents, on
their departure for England.
The usual curious throng searched
the vessel for Australian wonders,
and were rewarded with the sight of
small kangaroo, belonging to a
passenger bound for England also
q number of parrots of gorgeous
plumage, and q cage of ferrets. So
many people, also, went into the
saloon to see the alleged murderer,
Maxwell, that at length access to
him was denied by the officers. In
conversation with Detective Badger,
of st. Louis, whose watch it was
while the steamer was in port, il was
ascertained that the prisoner bore
himself calmly and quietly during
the voyage. That officer and his
comrade Tracey relieved each other
in taking charge of the prisoner at
intervals of six hours. Mr.. Badger
took no stock in the theory that the
alleged murder was put-up job on
an insurance company. With the
prisoner had been captured portions
of the victim Preller's clothing cut
off the body, the scissors used in
the operation and the key of Max
wells room in the Palace Hotel,
San Francisco. On entering the
state room where Maxwell was con-
fined the reporter found him with
no letters on but dressed in easy
garments and lying on lounge in
comfortable posture. He wore
full beard, looked to be about 80
years of age, and bore resem-
blance to Bridges serving sentence
here for killing Patten. He was
very affable in conversation and
from all outward signs was easy of
mind. He was cordial in receiving
his many visitors and stood the
scrutiny of their gaze without finch
ing. He said he did not travel to
avoid capture, in short, that he did
not know he was sought for and was
greatly surprised when made a
prisoner. His imprisonment at
Auckland was not as pleasant as 1T
might have been, as the Jail was
primitive one and the quarters were
none too pleasant. He spoke very
highly of the jailers at Auckland,
and alluded to Messrs. Tracey and
Badger as agreeable captors. He
would make no confession but in
timated denial of the charge
alleged against him. He said he
was acting under legal advice and
could not speak directly of the
tragedy, but when questioned about
the report that the corpse found was
not Preller's but medical subject he
did not seem to know anything about
it, and when hearing the story mani
tested eagerness to catch every
word, afterward falling back to his
former position as though he had
heard nothing. On the departure
of the reporter, Maxwell jauntily
expressed the hope that the result
of the interview would sell many
papers.
Other particulars of the steamers
voyage will be found in our shipping
column.
