THE KiNhU.

The steamship Kinau left at ten
minutes past two O'Clock this after
noon, for Maui and Hawaii. This
is her first trip since she underwent
thorough overhaulng. The vessel
is now in splendid order and will
doubtless make good record on
this trip. Quite large number of
passengers went by her, including
the Chief Justice, Messrs. p. Neu-
mann, V. V. Ashford, w. o. Smith,
and Antoine Rosa, who will attend
the term of Court at Lahaina. His
Excellency the Minister of Interior
and w. f. Rowell, Superintendent
of Public Works, have gone on a
tour of inspection on Hawaii to be
absent three weeks. The latter took
his mule along. Marshal Soper went
on business on the island of Maui,
while Mr.. Chas. N. Spencer, 1nspec-
tor-General of Immigrants, will visit
the district of Kohala.
The Kinau also took several pas
sengers for the Volcano. She re-
turns to Honolulu next Tuesday, the
18th, and leaves again the following
Friday.-Dec. 4th.

tention to me during my stay in that
institution; and to the general help
at the hospital. l have, and can
have, nothing but words of praise

tender care and kindness in the
bosom of my own family than l was
in the Hospital, during my twelve
days stay there. l have now re-
turned to my home in Manoa Valley,
where 1 shall be glad to see my
friends. A. A. MONTANA.

HOW TO CATCH MILKTHIEVEs?

A well-known citizen of Honolulu,
recently, having been greatly an
noyed by losing the contents of his
milk can for several days in success
sion, at last desperately resolved to
catch the thief or perish in the at
tempt. Accordingly he armed him
self with shot gun, charged to the
muzzle, and at 2 a. m. arose from
his bed and sailed forth with MUIR
derous intent, TO await his victim.
Soon the milkwagon arrived and the
usual quantity of the (pure?) article
was duly deposited in the can, and
our hero, who was now thirsty,
resolved that he would make certain
of at least portion of it, took a
good drink, replaced the can, and
once more lay IN ambush. Slowly
the hours passed, and no villain APP
peared, but our friend was deter
mined, Gas were also the mosquitoos)
and persevered Notwithstanding,
until at last the darkness of night
gave place to dawn, and finally tile
sun arose in all his glory. Still the
thief came not, and the one in hid
ing came forth with a chuckle of
satisfaction, happy in the thought
that for once he would enjoy in full
the tactical liquid contained in yon-
der can, and he fastened to grasp
the prize, only TO find it empty /
His anathemas were deep and earnest
as this unexplained emptiness broke
upon him; but when upon closer
scrutiny OF the offending receptacle
a small hole was discovered in the
bottom, he was strangely silent, and
returned to the bosom of his family
remarking that she didn't care much
for milk anyhow" A new can has
now replaced the other, and all is
peace in that household.

The inward history of past cleo
tions for Reform is of q nature to
commend itself and the resulting
action of legislators to the close
scrutiny of every voter. The result
of such investigation cannot be
otherwise than beneficial. One of
the features of the first canvass was
the subversion of all other interests
TO attain positive success, and on
account of the many promises direct
and implied the candidates for Re-
form went in on ringing majority.
The second election (made neces-
sary by the death of S. G.. Wilder),
gave opportunity for little demon
stration and for the placing of a
plank in the platform of Reform,
which plank was not TO be miscon-
strued. The views afterwards ex-
pressed by Mr.. w. c. Wilder in
the House while debate was on the
Chinese question voiced the senti-
ments of the community, and due
regard for that sentiment would
have saved to what has become
known as the missionary element in
our Reform Legislature reasonable
influence on the mass of the
voters. Ignoring these just de-
mands of their constituents has cost
them much more than they as yet
seem to realize. j. T..

THE BRITISH NAVY.

Great Britain has only a small
army, but her navy is second to
none. After admitting to be true
nine-tenths of the adverse criticism
which of late has been bestowed
upon it by public speakers and pub
lie writers, the British navy is still,
to put it moderately, equal to the
best. An idea of what the Govern
ment is doing to enhance the
strength of the navy may be gather

RATS IN COURT.

Monday morning there was great
joy in the clerks Office of the SUI
preme Court, on account of an i'm
portant "catch" having been made.
For some time past sad havoc has
been made among the law books by
rats. Quite number of volumes
have been partly destroyed by these
pests. The last thing they tackled
was bound copy of the Laws of
1888, the only parts left complete
being the election and military laws,
which were evidently too much for
their ratships' digestion. Nice per-
fumed cakes of soap, the property
of the judges, were found on the
floor, close by a hole from which
the rats entered the room. The
clerks got their heads together and
decided to put q stop to the antics
OF these rats. A messenger was
despatched to the Pacific Hardware
Company's store for three of their
warranted to CATCH rat traps.
They were placed in position in the
Courtroom, and on Monday morn
ing three sleek looking rats were in
the traps, One of the clerks was so
nervous IN handling one of the traps
that he let the rat escape, and no
doubt by this il has given the hint
to its other companions, to keep out
of the Courtroom, anyway for the
present. The other two rats are no
more.

BRITISH IMPERIAL FEDERATION.

Mr.. w. II. Smith in q recent
speech at Gloucester, England, said
that carrying out the colonial de-
fence scheme meant practically I'M
perial federation, as the colonies had
become partners with England in
defending their mutual interests.
AS an evidence that the attachment
between the mother country and the
colonies was enhanced by the dis
lance which separates them, he
quoted the fact that New South
Wales had sent contingent to the
Soudan. He said the colonies were
the life-blood of England, and must
eventually become stronger and SUI
persede the old country.

MAP OF HONOLULU.

We are indebted TO Professor
Alexander, chief of the Survey De-
partment, for an excellent wall map
of Honolulu and surroundings. II
is the production Of the Survey De-
partment, and is drawn with remark
able clearness. In addition to mark
ing out the limits of all properties
of Importance, it gives the names of
their respective owners, and en-
braces a much greater area than any
other existing chart that we have
seen. The Eastern part of the
map begins at Diamond Head taking
in part of the ocean beyond the
reef on the South, and extending
inland TO distance of over three
miles. The roads, enclosures, ee-
yations, etc., are most distinctly
marked throughout, and the map in
cudes considerable portion of the
Palolo, Manoa, Pauoa, Nuuanu, and
Kalihi Valleys, taking in the Kane
hameha school beyond Palama. To
the seward Of Honolulu, following
the line of coral reef from Diamond
Head, the entrance to the barbor is
so clearly drawn, giving the posi-
tions of the Bell, Spar, Barrel, and
other bpoys, as to be of great ser.
vice to vessels entering our port.
Taken as a whole this map is most
creditable production, and must
prove Of very great service to the
public at large as well as to the De-
partment for which it was more par
ticularly complied.
