HONOLULU WAYS.
Peculiar Methods Of OBTAINING Tourists
on the Islands.

on the Islands.
eyes, I arrived from Honolulu last
Saturday" said well-known local bust
ness man yesterday to friend whom he
met on Montgomery street.
GLOW do you like the place ?" in
quired the friend.
Don't ike it at all, " was the reply in
a gruff tone Of voice.
"Why, how's that?"
ooh, it's pretty place, but it costs too
much to get away from there. Youmust
know that first off one must have Gov
eminent passport before he can leave
the islands, Again, if you owe any kind
OF a debt you can't get passport, and
must stay there. In Honolulu there are
lots of people who stay there because
they owe money. and can't get pass
port to leave"
"But YOU did not run in debit" was
the next inquiry.
Not exactly. 1t was this way: A
few days before leaving my wife ordered
a dress made by a prominent dress
maker there. 1t was to be done few
hours before the steamer sailed. Well,
when my wife fitted the dress on she
found that 1t was horrible misfit, and
she refused to take it. The dressmaker
vowed that she would make my wife &C
cept it and pay for it. ! was willing to
pay the woman what thought she was
entitled to, but she would not take it.
We went down to the steamer next
morning, and were about to 20 on board
when a man tapped me on the shoulder,
and asked me if had passport. re-
piled by showing it to him, whereupon
he said that Notwithstanding the pass
port l could not leave as a dressmaker
had claim on me. Expostulation did
not avail me. l hunted up Paul Neu-
mann, and gave him $50 TO look after
the case, left the amount Of the bill and
costs, and again started for the steamer.
But the gang-plank had been drawn in
and she was just leaving the wharf The
result of it was had to wait over another
steamer, and that miserable misft dress
cost me $50 for the dressmaker, So costs
and $50 attorneys fees. Oh, yes, Homo
lulu is a pretty place, but it's costly
one to get away from,n and the returned
tourist strobe off with look of disgust.

IN AN AWFUL CONDITION.
DIR. Lee, OF the State Board, Inspects and
Condemns BuIchers' Run.


Condemns BuIchers' Run.
DR.. Benjamin Lee, Secretary of the State
Board of Health, made his long promised
tour of the Butchers Run district yesterday
morning, accompanied by Drs. Mcclellan
and Thompson, of this city, resident men,
bers of the State Board, Health Officer
Bradley. of Allegheny, and Messrs. Ebbert,
Einstein and Curry, of the Allegheny Health
Committee of Councils.
Starting from the head of the run the
party inspected it on foot, and at every step
were confronted with evidences of singular
negligence in the disposal of garbage, offal
and general rubbish. DR.. Lee was amazed
at the condition of affairs, and said that it
was plain to he seen that the butchers who
have SO strenuously denied any response
Dility for the horrible stencil and clogging of
the run were plainly culpable. He ex-
pressed strong condemnation of the guilty
parties.
When the tour had been concluded DR..
Lee said that he would officially notify the
Allegheny Health Committee that the State
Board would make use of its police powers
to aid the committee in the construction of
an adequate sewer. Dr. Lee expressed his
approval of the city garbage furnace and
the Herr's Island abattoir and said that
there was no excuse for the condition of
Butchers Run.
The action of the State Board will be SUBJ
ject to DIR. Lees recommendations, and it is
believed that something will be done to
abate the nuisance permanently.

A raw, rainy Monday morning is not calcu-
lated to boost produce trade. Buyers were
scarce and markets were slow. The week is
too young to develop any new features. Dairy
products are steady at old rates. Choice eggs
are firm enough to 90 higher. Large quantities
of potatoes are coming to market from the
Northwest and the DRIFT Of prices is toward a
lower level. Our shortage couple of weeks
ago has been sufficiently advertised to bring an
over-supply to this market. Apples, too, are
overdone and the movement is slow. Cool
weather and the wane of other fruits has stim-
