DINNERS AND AccEPrAScEs.

afterward. This Is the height Of yuIgarity.

The host can give his right arm or his left, as
he pleases, TO the lady whom he escorts: il is
generally the right arm, but the other guests
should notice and follow his example. The
host and hostess can sit at either end of the
table or in the middle, a. they please, or mix
themselves up. A round table, now % much
the fashion, is used to obliterate any necessity
of head and foot" but the principal lady

1t was the archdeacon's turn to fall back,
nerveless and aghast. The light that shone in
upon him with those words so blinded him
that every spark of his anger paled and
dwindled before it. His son Charles Williams2

A meeting of the Board of Health
was held this morning at the office.
Sister Marianne was appointed

the death of Father Damien.
John Akana was appointed keeper
of the receiving station at Kalihi.
l.. l.. La Pierre was appointed

A new set of rules were adopted
for the management of the Malulani

A letter of coincidence had been
sent to the Bishop of Olba, with an
expression of the Boards apprecia-
ton of the valued services of the
late Father Damien. The Bishops
reply was read at the meeting. 1t
stated that the Bishop highly valued
the Boards appreciation of the de-
ceased Fathers long and faithful
service. The Catholic mission would
always be happy to confer with the
Board in the work of humanity and
of Christian charity.

The ANDREW WEIGH.

The new iron bark Andrew WEIGH
flying the Hawaiian flag arrived in
port on Saturday, 63 days from
Newcastle, N. S. W., with 1885
tons of coal consigned to Messrs. c.
Brewer & Co. The Andrew WEIGH
was built by Messrs. Russell C Co.
at Kingston, Port Glasgow, under
the superintendent of Capt. w. Fl.
Marston, specially for the trade be-
tween Honolulu and San Francisco.
Captain Marston is well known here
rs former commander of the Lady
Lampson. The WEIGH was launched
August 80, 1888, and is of the fol-
lowing dimensions: length 1876 feet;
breadth SO feet; depth Is feet 8 in.
net register tonnage S64 tons. She
has fine lines and is good sailer.
A deckhouse comfortably accomod-
ates the crew and the cooks galley.
On the forecastle she carries the
new style of lighthouses, and aft in
the poop she has accommodation of
superior class for limited num-
Der of passengers. The masters
private suite of cabins are aft in the
elliptical stern of the ship, and are
most completely finished. There
are four staterooms-cw upon
either side Of the saloon-with
steamer style of entrances to them,
and each room with two berths,
besides well upholstered lounge.
The toilet arrangements are also up
to the latest style. Revolving chairs
are fitted along the dining table and
the saloon fittings are handsomely
finished in bird's-eye maple inlaid
with flowers and divided into panels
by fluted polished teak pilasters,
surmounted with handsomely formed
floral mouldings in gilt. There is
no doubt the WEIGH will be fav-
orite passenger vessel between here
and the coast.
The Welch left Glasgow, October
8, 1888, on her first voyage which
was to Newcastle, N. S. w. Dur
ing the voyage little boy of the
Captains died of suffocation, the
result of a piece of fruit sticking in
his throat. A sailor fell overheard
but was rescued.
The Welch left Newcastle for this
port February 23d, and experienced
variable weather. She is locked at
the foot of Fort street and already
a large number of people have visit
ed her. After discharging her coal
she will load sugar for San Francisco.

MAUI NOTES.

Another seizure of opium has been
made at Kahului, this time on board
the Consuelo, by Officer Good from
Honolulu. The vessel has been
seized by the Government and her
matches sealed. She was partly
loaded and would have sailed for
San Francisco on Thursday or Fri
day. Now she will be detained I'M
til bond can be executed for her
release. The authorities at Kahu-
lui had searched the vessel thor
oughly upon her arrival there on
Sunday, but found nothing. Mr..
Good arrived from Honolulu on the
Likelike on Tuesday morning and
going on board found in a very
short time 800 tins of the drug.
Finding it so quickly has led many
to believe that he knew where to
look for it before he came from Ho-
nolulu.
The trial of Huakailoa, the native
policeman, who was arrested at ka-
hului last week for smuggling opium
came off before Police Judge Kepoi-
kai in Wailuku on Thursday last, he
was found guilty and sentenced to
pay fine of two hundred dollars
and to be imprisoned at hard labor
for one year. An appeal was noted
to the Supreme Court.
The long continued spell of dry
weather has at last been broken and
the parched earth has been refresh
ed with an abundance of rain. In
Wailuku over two inches have fallen
during the last week, and almost as
much has fallen throughout the Ma
kawao district.
There is a rumor to the effect that
Grove Ranch plantation and Paia
have consolidated, to take effect on
the LIST of July, Or after the present
crop of cane has been ground. If
such be the case, Paia plantation
with this addition will be one of the
largest on the islands. N.
The II. Sudden left Kahului for
California on Saturday, with full
load of sugar, and Mrs. Thiele, son
and daughter as passengers.
