CAPT. GEO. H. LUCE.
He Passes Away to His Last Rest Late
Last Evening.

We deeply regret to announce the
'death~ef Captain George H. Luce, which
teok place last evening at five minutes
past II O'Clock at his residence, Punch
bowl street. A short time ago the de-
ceased underwent an operation to the
eyes, and since then he has seemed to
grow feebler day by day. About week
ago he was taken sick, and although
everything possible was done for him, he
passed away last evening, at the time
stated, in a very quiet and peaceful
manner.
Captain Luce was born at Pontipool,
Monmouthshire, August 20, 1920, conse
quently at the time of his death he was
81 years, 6 months and days old. He
first came to the Islands in 1S48, but
soon after went to the California gold
diggings and got the first gold. In 1850
he returned to the Islands and had never
left them until the early part of 1886,
when, in company with Mrs. Luce, they
visited the old country. A full account
of his travels abroad has been appearing
from time to time in the "Anglican
Church Chronicle" under the heading,
"Our Pilgrimage" Capt. Luce at the
time of his death was the oldest govern
ment officer on the Islands. He had
been tax collector for Honolulu about %
years. The deceased was one of the
trustees of st. Andrews Cathedral and
regular attendant at that church where
he will be much missed. Capt. Luce
was held in the highest esteem by all
who knew him. He leaves a widow
and six children, who have the entire
sympathy of the whole community in
the great loss they are called upon to
sustain. The deceased had been mar
ried over forty years. His family con-
sists of Mrs. Fenard, residing in France !;
Mr.. w. S. Luce, the well-known mer-
chant; Mrs. T. r. Keyworth, Mrs. Clapp,
residing in Nassau; Mr.. Harry Luce and
Mrs. NJ. D. Monsarrat.
The funeral takes place this afternoon
at o'clock from st. Andrews Cathedral.

AUSTRALIAN ARGONAUTS.
Reck1essness of High Old Times whe

ReckIessness of High Old Times When
the Rich Yellow Was Plentiful
'1've digged for gold, and I've found
gold wherever gold was to be digged for
and found" obstinately remarked an
old Australian, in reply to some obser-
vations just made by California gold
miner. I've digged in California as
hard as you ha e, and I've digged, for
my pains, in Ireland, when a fellow
sailed hole in Galway and raised
company to plough up the gold that he
had sowed. But there was more gold,
and redder gold, and maybe better gold
in Australia IN 1885, than there has been
in any other part of the world before or
since. And there was more fun in get
tin the gold than you could shake
stick at.
THE harbors of Melbourne and Sid
ney were crowded with ships that
couldn't get away, because their crews
had deserted them and run off the dig
gings; and the towns were crowded with
the sailors, and lots of others, too,
comm back with their pockets full
for nobody seemed at that time to be
tryin to make a fortune and go home.
All they wanted to do was To raise
enough money for good spree i'll one
of the towns; and their notions of what
a spree meant would, l think, have as
tOnished a Californian. A dozen times
I've seen fellow walk into liquor sa-
loon with crowd behind him, call for
drinks for all the rest and issue spe-
cial order for dozen of champagne and
a tub for himself. Selfish? oh, no,
there was nothing selfish about it. He
merely poured the champagne into the
tub, pulled off his shoes and stockings,
and washed his feet in it. OF course
he was crazy; but doesn't gold make
nine out of ten men crazy, whether
they dig it out of the earth or get it IN
Wall street?
Everything had to be paid for in gold
dust, and every bar had weights and
scales to test the value Of the dust, which
was then current coin. For what
miner then paid for an ordinary round
of drinks he could now buy heavy
gold ring, but such a ring then would
have been of small value in Australia
compared with the worth of pint of
whisky. The eccentricities Of success
full miners coming to the cities to spend
their gains extended to their clothing.
Almost all Of them were fond of tall silk
hats, but their tastes varied as to the
part of the hat that was most becoming,
some preferring the top and some the
bottom, and common sight was man
walking in crowded street wearing the
highly polished crown of silk hat, fol-
lowed or accompanied or preceded by a
man whose head showed itself above
the low walls encircling the rim that
had thus been cut off from the upper
portion of the hat.
Elaborate weddings took place every
day. AS often as not the bride and
bridegroom sat together on the driver s
seat of furniture van, both drunk, and
still drinking health and long life to the
crowd that was cheering them on their
way, and exchanging JOKES with the long
procession that drove or rode after the
happy couple. don't know whether
such weddings resulted well or not, but
they were celebrated very often.

TeIeDhOminG i'm RUSSIA.

The telephone, it is said, is not max
ing much progress in Russia. And no
wonder; fancy man going to the tele-
phone and yelling:
''Hel-lo! Is that you Dvisostkiuchift-
martvoiczski?"
'No. It's Observation-Disclosures
stiffsgowoff. Who's speaking?'
"Sezlmochocwiertrjuakismiaskichoklz-
kokof. I want to know if Xlijeromans-
OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES
is still stopping with Observation-Disclosures
ovoiczski."
Such nomenclature over the telephone
would tie the wire full of knots and
twist the enunciator all out of shape.
Until the kinks are ironed out OF the
Russian names the telephone will not
be an overwhelming success in the land
OF the GAR Puck.

Down ON Worth,

A story comes from Honolulu that
after Queen Kapiolani and her daughter
got home from their recent trip to En-
rope they caused to be put into shop
windows pictures of themselves taken in
London in the superb court costumes
that they had bought in Paris. A ma
tive mob passed resolutions denouncing
this breach of Sandwich Island customs
as to clothing, visited all the shops
where the pictures were displayed, de-
stroyed the portraits, and then went to
the Palace and demanded that the cos
tunes themselves be delivered to them.
The Royal ladies had to yield, and saw
the triumphs of Worth torn in pieces by
the mob. A promise was then exacted
that the Queen and Princess hereafter
would wear only the native costume,
and the mob broke up.-[New York Sun.
