The three masted schooner w. S.
Bovine, now lying off the old Custom
House wharf, is regarded by shipbuilders
at the Coast as the latest triumph of
their skill. AS she was built expressly
for the trade between this port and San
Francisco, brief description of this
smart, trim craft will interest the ADJ
vERTEsER readers. The w. S. Bovine
was built at Hall Bros shipyard, Port
Blakely, of Puget Sound pine with
primavera wood finishings. She regis
tiers S91 tons net and 424 tons gross ton
mage She has beautiful lines, with
rather more sheer in the model than is
usual, and is built both for speed and
carrying qualities. The length, over all,
is I61 feet, with 1877 feet length of keel.
The "beam, or width, is "a feet inches,
and depth of hold II feet inches. The
DIR aft when full loaded is Is feet. The
masts are all of the same height, the
lower masts 90 feet and topmasts 56 feet.
The sail carried consists of three jibs and
a jib-topsail, foresail, mainsail, spanker,
squaresail, spinnaker, three staysails and
three gaff-topsails. The standingrigging
is all of wire, and the canvas and cord
age of the best and most expensive make.
The cabin is twenty-eight feet long,
consisting of main saloon, captain g room,
four spare staterooms, with two berths
each, for passengers, and mates room,
and is elegantly finished in polished
primavera wood, with rich carpets, por-
there's, mirrors, furniture, chandelier and
other appointments, which make scene
of luxury seldom witnessed in : freight
ing vessel. Forward is large deck
house, containing forecastle with accom-
modations for eight seamen, roomy gal

HoNoKAA, Hawaii, Dec. so, 1885.
ED. P. c.. ADvERTIsER--Sir: An arti- |
Gle appeared in the Gazette" of the I'D
instant, rejecting on the present man
agement of the Hilo and Hamakua Tele-
phone Company, which we consider to
be entirely uncalled for We are told,
"out of the fu1lness of the heart the
mouth speaketh." In this instance we
are inclined to think that from the Bit
terness of the heart the mouth speak
eth. One of the gentlemen referred TO
(Mr. Richards) had only just come from
the Coast to take charge of the Hilo end
of the line, when he and Mr.. Tullock
were sent out on the line to put it in re-
pair. Since then, up to few days ago,
they have been on the road from Hilo to
Kawaihae repairing, so that he can
hardly have been said to have taken
charge yet; and when the writer of the
article in question says he has failed sig
nally to give satisfaction, l think he is
| passing judgment rather prematurely. 1t
is uncharitable, to say the least, to con-
| denim a man without trial. Mr.. Tul
! lock. who has had charge of the Hama
kua end of the line for some months, We
unhesitatingly say has given entire sat
| isfaction, and every subscriber in the dis
trict will sustain this statement. He is
thoroughly competent, affable and oblig-
ing.
The writer further states that they are
| two expensive men. Are the men to
blame if expensive? We presume those
men put a price on their labor before
leaving California, and it was optional
with the company to pay them that
figure or refuse. And again, it is said
that they have been for month in
Hamakua to work on the line. That is
not SO. They have been about u month
from Hilo town to Kawaihae; walked all
the way; repaired, altered and built part
of a new line. AS for the old manage
ment giving satisfaction, we think the
writer in question knows something
about that. He had complaints enough
during the time he was in Office, but we
would rather not make any remarks
about men who are now out of office
and not connected with the Company
Again he says complaints are general
Correct; complaints are general-not o
those two men, but OF the line anC
instruments, which we must say have
been condemned by every one who ha
+ seen it as probably the worst constructed
on the face of the earth Mr.. Tullocl
t has put in and got orders for six new
y instruments which never would hav'
gone in under the old management. ID
, has a great deal to contend with, an
, one great drawback is the want OF 81
Office We heartily join with the write
in the Gazette in one thing; that is il
hoping the General Directors will sti
. themselves and assist the present me
a in charge in putting the line in prope
s order and give us good Office at Homo
f kaa Then we have no fear but that tn
v present management will eventually Civ
a general satisfaction.

CAMPAIGN NOTES.

The Independent Opposition" will be
able to add another "p'' to its programme
after the election. Prayers and poll
tics'' are its watchwords now. When it
sustains the humiliating defeat at the
polls which it deserves, its leaders can
add another word to express their men
tai if not their moral condition. Their
programme will then read prayers,
politics and penitence, but especially
penitence.

Opposition gooseberry syrup does Hence
the use of the Honolulu bramble bush
at the "socials'' gotten up TO influence
natives and cram them with political
Stops and things. The native Hawaiians
are not as gullible now as they were in

fer to think and act for themselves dur

1t would only be right and proper TO
compile and reprint all the vile and dis
loyal abuse OF the King, written by Oppo-

Opposition newspapers in this city fol-
foreign circulation, to prejudice the Amer
lean people against Hawaiian institu
tons, to the end that political sneakf
may be confronted with their per
fidy, when they profess respect for the
person of the Sovereign and loyalty t.

The "1Iaze" OF Bushby Park.

Every one is acquainted by description,
at least, with the noisy, fun-full resort
known as aMaze." 1t is constructed like
an immense puzzle, with hundreds OF
bushes some six feet high, and seems to
have been especially designed for 1.-The
pleasure of British sweethearts. Now the
beauty of the thing-if you are in the
plural-is to start in different directions
and then strive to discover one another.
This becomes bewildering, since you in
evitably lose yourself; so after brothers
friend has wandered around helplessfy for
an hour or 30, he is naturally seized with
desire to know where his friends sister Is
located by this time, and therefore calls
aloud the fair ones name. She responds.
There are many fair ones within and many
a young man in the above mentioned
predicament. consequently the. strange
volume of sound issuing from that
decorous-l looking group of trees is some
thing exceeding description. 1t Is well we
are warned that it is "only the Maze" !"

The Sorrow Of yanderbilt's Life.

William H. Vanderbilt had a big sorrow
in his life. He told bluff, good-hearted
Capt. Thompson, of the steamship
Germanic, about it one afternoon, when
he sat enjoying smoke in the captains
office.
"There isn't much fun in having people
believe you are very rich," said Mr..
Vanderbilt II am willing to take your
word for it," assented the captain. 3Now,
do you know what is the great trouble of
my life?" went on the millionaire. The
captain confessed that he. had 4siss,tr sar
suspected that there was any agfeaA
trouble" there at all. "Wen, there is" in
sisted the railway magnate. "There is-a
great trouble I am bothered and wor-
ried to death by people who want to make
me rich. They seem to think I want all
the money on the earth and they all have
schemes to help me get it That is the
great sorrow of my life. I don't dare turn
to this side or to that, but some man is
Offering to take me into partnership and

Matches Down to a Fine Point.

John Robinson, the Chicago manager OF
the great friction match corporation, said
recently: "They have got matches down
to fine point in Michigan. They are
selling three boxes, that is 500 matches,
for 2cents. There was little factory
started at Grand Rapids. Matches were
then selling at $3.50 case. They put the
price down little, and we were obliged
to meet them. They kept running down
and we kept meeting them until they got
down to S1.25 case. Then we took the
initiative and dropped to 81. The retail
ers had stocked up at from H.25 to Sl.75,
which were thought bottom prices. Now
they had to get rid of the matches at any
sacrifice, and they began to cut. When
they had slashed around to the dollar
limit one man, who had been losing trade
by the drive on matches, put his down to
three boxes for cents. That is SO cents o
case, or 4 cents less than he can duplicate
them for. The other dealers offered to
buy out his entire stock, but he wouldn't
sell. He saw his trade coming back with
the sals Of matches at this price. Itstruck

The Pressure of Plant Juices.

The transfer of water through woody
stems takes place by means of the younger
wood, and not to any extent by the bark.
Hence stem can be girdled, the bark
stripped off from the wound, and yet the
leaves will for long time keep fresh. In
soft plants the transfer may take place
through almost any parts. Sometimes
the pressure of the juices within the plant
is so great that water Is forced out through
the minute riffs. This is ofen seen in the
case Of the young leaves of wheat and
corn, the drops of water at the tips looking
like dew, but plainly coming from within
the plant instead of from the air. In q
Jew instances water has been seen to be
thrown out in minute jets from the tips of
leaves, especially in some Of the green
house plants like Colocssia.-Boston

The Candy Vendors of Cuba.

The dulcero, or vender of sweets, Is
everywhere and at all hours. Many OF
them squat at street corners like our own
patient caramel and peanut-candy mer-
chants, but the most picturesque are the
negro mulatto, and an-sorts, who crowd
their wares into a bridge-like box which
they carry upon their heads and shoulders.
1t is impossible to tell why, but they fly
through the streets as though possessed;
and their calls, interspersed by melodious
whistnng and bars of warbling more
weird than that of the Tyrolese, though as
sweet, are bursts of barbarous sound truly
appalling. At night these yells are sup
pressed by authority. Then the, dulceros
fasten little bells to their boxes, and the
silver tinkling of these sweetly winsome
campanillas mingle pleasingly with the
charming night sounds of the happy
hearted city until the small hours when
the centinelas at the fortresses upon the
heights have chanted answer to their
challengers.-Edgar L. Wakeman's Ha-
vans Letter.
