the Best Of Quarautiued Visit.

The San Francisco Examiner OF Feb
ruary 10th, has humorous account OF
the supposed harJiships endured by
MeSsrs- J. Y. Coleman, J. J. Flynn
and Sands w. Forman, three notable
San FrantiScdns, during their recent
quarantine in this city. While the
Examiners account l. very funny
reading as = piece OF fiction, it may
help our big contemporary over the
shark pond 10 ''pOint moral and
adoru 4 tale 10 be informed eXactlyhOW
the three gentlemen observed or rather
skipped the quarantine embargo. The
distinguished Trio were quartered in a
house at Waikiki, the prettieSt and
most SdIubTiOus spot in the Ha-
waiian Islands or in the world
for that matter, MeulO Park 10
the contrary Notwithstanding. They
observed the quarantine as be-
came good citizens Of Uncle Sam
dOminiOus. with s,.TupuiOus and ex-
empIaFy fidelity during the day, but
when the shades OF evening began TO
THROW their pail over Waikiki, the
spirit Of Liberty seized upon the quar-
antined party and they actually went
forth into the infected air, hired car
prancing steetis, taking in through the
openings Of their ehariOts all the
sights and wonders Of the "Iand Of
royalty and rainbOws" that were avail
able by the illumination Of the stars
aided by extinguished street lamps and
unlighted electric apparatus. But they
did not ride like LOchinyar 80 a. 70
stay not for brake and stop not for
stone, for they did stop at sundry
places
One evening was spent at Emma
Square, where the Royal Hawaiian
Band was giving one Of It's OPen-air
concerts and filling all surrounding
space with the pIaiHtive meIes Of the
HaWaiian= and other haFmOnies OF ex-
quisite beauty, 10 the supreme delight
OF the quarzntined party a. well a. the
rest Of the crowd One evening was
spent al a billiard saloon, where they
enjoyed themselves a. only San Fran

enquiry If be was nos one Of the quar-
antined passengers, 20 which, knowing
