The Alert welcome.

Every arrangement for the compli-
mentary concert by the Royal Hawaiian
Band, to Capt. Anderson and officers OF
the u. S. S. Alert, was perfect at the
Hotel. The shrubbery on the lawn was
bespangled with radiant incandescent
electric lights, while the noble building
was beautifully illuminated with the
same agent, together with colored Ian
terms profusely hanging in festoons.
There was, however, not SO large an at
tendance OF the general public as might
have been expected, from the usual
popularity of concerts at the Hotel and nd
very favoring weather. Many notable
folk, though, met the guests upon the
comfortable verandas, and the greatest
degree of enjoyment of the superb music
was evinced.

An Old Acquaintance.

Prof. w. T. Brigham, who arrived by
the Australia, held a PROFESSIONAL chair
inIOahu College % years ago. About
ten years ago he revisited the Islands.
He is the author of work entitled:
Geological Formation of the Hawaiian
Archipelago. 1t is SAID that some OF
the views therein have been combated
bv Prof. Dana, and, although our repre-
sentative has not had the good fortune
to meet Prof. Brigham, it is surmised
that his present visit may have Tor an
object further scientific investigation.
The Professor has been widely known as
a scholar with means suttlclent Ior the
fullest exercise of his tastes.

to 18th.

The United States Consulate received
instructions by the S. S. CITY of New
York that the national ship BROOKLYN

uer san Tor Honolulu on the 9Th inst.
9ne had LETT the Asiatic squadron for
nome by way of the Cape of Good Hope,
6ut breaking her main shaft put back to
Nagasaki, whence she sailed as above
stated.
Admiral Chandler has instructed the
Consulate here to send out a tugboat if

was the Admiral's flagship until relieved
by the Marion, that called here en- route.

Wedding Bells.

A most interesting event occurred
Thursday night, being the marriage of a
very popular couple. Mr.. Edwin Oscar
White welded Miss Anna Caroline Aus
tin, daughter of His Excellency the Min
lister of Foreign Affairs. Rev. w. B.
Oleson and Rev. DR.. Beckwith fastened
the nuptial tie, in the presence of the
immediate relatives and friends of the
contracting parties. Presents were many
and elegant, and reception was held
from 80 to 9 o'clock. The brides par
entail residence in Nuuanu Avenue was
handsomely decorated for the occasion.

An Evil Condemned from the Bench.

1t transpired before Judge Bickerton
on Thursday that Mr.. Kauhi, ex-repre-
sentative of Eva and Waianae, had
taken acknowledgment of forty years
lease from an old woman who was deaf
as post and could neither read nor
write, without the slightest explanation
to her OF the contents of the instrument
or inquiry as to whether she understood
them. The Court thereupon animad-
verted upon such official looseness, say
ing it was an exhibition of an evil con-
tinually cropping out in litigation here.
Even forms prescribed by statute were
not observed in the drawing up of legal
instruments. In this particular case the
lease was acknowledged in May although
not executed until a month or two later.

More Chinese Immigration COmplica-
tiOns.
The S. S. City of New York had 385
Chinese and 81 Japanese steerage pas
sengers for this port. Besides the Gus
tom House officials, Marshal Soper and
Deputy Attorney-General Peterson went
out to the ship, lying in the roadstead,
for the purpose of scrutinizing the return
permits held by the Chinese immigrants.
Up till late hour the Marshal and
Crown attorney had not reported at the
Station, and neither could be raised by
telephone. 1t was understood, from re-
ports that reached shore, however, that
a number of Chinese had been refused
permission to land, owing to irregularity
of their papers. Also it was reported
that the steamer would not sail before
this morning, owing to writ of habeas
corpus having been served upon Captain
Searle, for the production in Court of
certain of his Chinese passengers.

A Bad Word.

In Supreme Court hearing on Thurs
day barrister objected to opposing
counsel trying to ''bulldoze" the witness.
The Court disallowed the objection on
the merits and rebuked the objector for
using the word "bulldoze'' in addressing
the Court. Thereupon the barrister re-
ferred to verbally noted an appeal to
Webster's Dictionary. 1t appears, on
reference to the 1884 edition of that work,
that the " Supplement- contains the fol-
lowing: BuIldoze, V. t. To intimi-
date; used originally of the alleged IN
timidation of negro voters, in Louisiana.
Low. Recent. U. 81" There is no
doubt that the word has made great
headway since its recent introduction,
and the probability is that the paren-
thetical designation Glow will disappear
in future editions of Webster.

Going for Revtva1ist Sam Jones.

ALBANY, N. Y, August 3O.-Rev. DR..
Lowell, of the Methodist Church, has
made an attack upon Sam Jones for his
"clownish and ungentlemanly remarks"
at the Round Lake Assembly. He also
objects to Jones "using the pulpit for the
abuse of Christians who do not vote for
Prohibition" He advises the associa-
ton to ask Jones to get out. Jones' re-
mark that "if God meant women to go
bare armed and shOuldered he would
have given them feathers" has stag
gered many of his supporters.
