In August last the members OF the
Honolulu Yacht and Boat Club ordered
a new six-oared racing boat from ALI.
Rogers, the San Francisco at-builder.
The latter signed the contract August
oath, and promised the new boat should
be shipped by the Australia, which left
San Francisco October LIST. That gave
him five weeks-ampIe time. 1t did not
arrive by that steamer on the 9Th, and
Rogers sent word down that he had been
unable to complete it, but would have it
ready to leave on October 18th. As
there was no steamer leaving on the
18th, the boat was fully expected to
arrive by the Alameda on Sunday, but it
did not. Rogers sent a letter, stating it
would be impossible for him to get it
ready before the lst of November, and
he would forward on that day. When
he wrote that letter he must have been
perfectly aware that there was no steamer
leaving until November 10th. The boat,
of course, will be here on the I7th-the
day announced for the regatta. His
Majesty the King has offered the club
the use of one Of the boats in his boat
house. After the strict training the mem
bers Of the club have undergone, it is
natural that they feel much disappointed
at the non-arrival OF the boat. 1t is the
OF the members to make a
investigation in the matter.
From August oath to October 1st-a
period Of five weeks-Rogers certainly
had time to build the boat, as last year
ne built two racing boats for the Myrtle
Club in less than eight weeks.

:. The Friend. IS

The November number is about up to
its usual standard, and contains the
customary record of current events in
the religious world, prominent among
which is an obituary notice Of the Rev.
Lorenzo Lyons, in which a deservedly
high tribute is paid to the character Of
the deceased gentleman. There is also
an article in which an endeavor Is made
to show, from various quotations, that
prohibition is preferable to license, the
writer having been impelled by some re-
marks which recently appeared in the
ADVERTISER at the time the Opium bill
was a current topic The number is
made up, in addition to these features,
OF some comments upon the 350th an
niversary OF the martyrdom OF William
Tyndale, records OF the churches and
philanthropic organizations.
