Company B.

Company B, Honolulu Rifles, had
drill Tuesday evening. Thirty members
present, and three new members were
proposed, balloted for and elected.
During the parade rest at which the
addition TO the membership was dis
posed of, Lieutenant Bishop and Cap
tain Unger informed the company of
the proceedings at the meeting of the
commissioned and non-commissioned
officers of the previous evening. About
the matter of diSbanding which had
been mooted, the members present
were invited TO give their opinions
freely. No one limited the remotest
idea of disbanding, but the cheers all
along the line that greeted the remarks
of those who expressed their views in
favor of maintaining the organization
indicated in the most unmistakable
manner that there is no thought of
disbanding among the members OF the
company. 4 formal vote was taken,
and every hand went up III favor of
continuing the company. The result
of the vote was enthusiastically APP

William II. Levers is named as giving
a recitation, 1.-THE Battle of ClontaIf,

added that he won the gold medal for
defamation given by the Association

Among regular medals given by the
school are recorded " First gold, Erie

given by the school, Francis Augustus

Attempted HOrse-whipping.

AS Mr.. Wray Taylor and Mr.. r.
Grieve were engaged in conversation
on Merchant street March 9TH, oppe-
site the GAZETTE office, a carriage was
seen driving down from the way of the
POst-office. \ lady alighted from the
carriage and hitched the horse to the
post ut the door of Luce's store. This
being done, the lady, Mrs. I. H. Har-
rison, with the carriage whip in hand,
advanced in a threatening manner
towards Mr.. Taylor, who beat a retreat
into Kerr's tailoring shop, and got out
of sight of his pursuer by one of the
rear dOorways. The valOrOus lady
failed 10 get cut at the fugitive but
expressed her determination to have
summary redress some other time.
The cause of this sensational episode
was in the AdcertiseT''S editorial of
that day, in which the fair whippist
was designated Jade whom he (Har-
rison) called his wife,
Later in the day Mr.. Taylor was
arrested for libel at the instance of
Mrs. Harrison. The defendant re-
tanned Mr.. T. NJ. Hatch as counsel,
and was released on deposit of 800
bail.

smallpox on the Mariposa.

1t will be remembered that this
paper published report picked up by
the steamer Alameda at Samoa, to the
effect that case of smallpox had de-
veloped on the steamer Mariposa after
leaving Honolulu on her down trip.
The latter vessel now brings eonfirma-
ton of the report in Sydney papers.
BY them it is learned that the Board
of Health at that port found that Cap
tain Hayward and DR.. Giberson chad
acted in n most exemplary manner
during the voyage" Besides having
had all the crew vaecinated before
leaving San Francisco, they took vac
cine matter on board and, on
the appearance of the case men
toned, vaccinated all the passengers
who would submit to the process
(which all except II did. The sick
man was effectually isolated in deck
house away from all other tenanted
portions of the ship. In view of these
precautions the Sydney health auth
critics dealt as leniently as possible
with the steamer and all on board in
quarantining them. Captain Hay
ward and about fifty of the officers and
crew, and fourteen passengers who had
been successfully vaccinated during
the voyage, were released four days
after the ships patient was removed to
hospital, as was also the vessel on
being cleansed and fumigated. Those
who were too recently vaccinated for
the result to be known were to be re-
leased two days later if the process
proved effective. All who refused to
be vaccinated would have to stand
quarantine of twenty-one days.
Among the list of those first released
is the name of Mr.. E. Hore, the we'll
known teacher who embarked here.

"Candalaria A Heroine of the
Wild West. By J. A. Owen, author
of Our Honolulu Boys Under Palm
and Pine Sea Blossoms etc.u This
work has been issued in London last
year, and is on sale by the Hawaiian
News Company Qate ]. II. Soper's
BOOKSTORE There is much entertain
ing depletion of pioneer life in the
Wild Vest in connection with
hunting, ranching, etc. The style is
clear and engaging, while an under
tone of religious sensibility pervades
the narrative. Adventure, not of too
mingles with the relation of a course
of true love ending happily on
mountain farm. The book is in agree
able type for the eye, and has eight
fine illustrations by Alfred Johnson.
1t should be anything but detraction
from the reception of the work in this
community, that Mrs. Owen, the auth

above mentioned.
"Smith's Planetary Almanac, 1885"
This little work contains a general
weather forecast for the year, by its
editor, Walter II. Smith, President of
the AstrO-9IeteOrological Association
of the United States and Canada His
forecasts for former years came re-
markedly true, even showing the great
changes of weather in these distant
isles with approximate accuracy. An
interesting feature of this Almanac is
its presentation of the theory of "lunaT
influence on vegetation, with tables
for sowing according to it in all lati-
tudes.u Nj. Smith inserts a lecture in
which he informed audiences how he
forecasts the weather, by such mag
unanimous action enabling an innumer-
able school of prophets TO hang out
their shingles in rivalry with him
self. A few copies of this Almanac
have been received by the editor of
the GAZETTE, a former newspaper
cGnJrere OF the author IN Montreal.
AS long as they last they will be fur
nished to any address, postpaid, for .
