MONDAY,
DEEPENING OF THE CHAN
MEL.

The arrival at this port of four
foreign steamships. with an aggre-
gate nominal tonnage Of over eleven
thousand tons, and with over five
hundred passengers, including
these en- route, shows the growing
Importance of Honolulu as CEN
trail port of call. And yet, one of
these steamships-the China, was
unable to enter this port, and was
compelled to do all her business by
lighters, while anchored some two
miles from the wharves.
There is every indication that
within two or three years at the
farthest, the number of steam
ships will be largely increased, and
the same sight as was seen last
week will be witnessed every
week, and that each new steam
ship enterprise will employ larger
vessels than most of those now
running. To meet these growing
and imperative demands of com
merce, the project of deepening the
entrance to our harbor should be
taken hold of without delay. All
the necessary preliminary surveys
have been completed, and what is
now wanted most are the means,
the men and the implements to ac-
complish the work in the best pos
sible way.
The recent survey of the bed of
the channel, as shown on the adj
mirablo report and accompanying
chart drawn by Mr., Allardt, indi-
Gates what is to be done, what is
the extent OF the work, and how it
is to be accomplished. So far as
can be judged from study of the
work required, it is practicable,
provided machinery of the right
kind is obtained to do it with. II
the channel can be deepened to
thirty feet on the bar where now
there are not more than twenty
four, it will admit the largest class
of steamers and war ships employ
ed: while its value to this port will
be immense, in attracting hither
shipping of every class, some OF
which only comes here now from
necessity.

The Royal Mail Steamship Yea
landia, Capt. K. Van Oterendorp,
arrived off port Saturday night
shortly after 8 o'clock, but did not
enter the harbor until 1:30 o'clock
Sunday morning. 1t was blowing
a gale Of wind outside and it was a
long time before she could be got
to enter the channel, her machinery
not responding as quick as it might
have done.
The Zealandia sailed from Sydney
October 1st. at 20 a. m, and expe-
rienced light variable winds to Auck-
land which port was reached Octo-
Der 9th, at SIP a. m. She left Auck
land the same day at 3:37 p. N. and
met with light southerly winds to
Tutuila, touching off there on the
10th at 10:45 p. N. From Tutuila
to the equator had light easterly and
northeast winds; FROM the equator
to II deg. north. light easterly and
y. f. winds. Thence to Honolulu
fresh Z. \. f. winds and head sea
WI, i frequent rain squalls.
1t will be seen that the Zealandia
had fine weather the entire passage.
1t was the labor strikes in Sydney
that caused her detention as it
was with difficulty that she was able
to coal. Fabulous wages had to be
paid by the ship to men to coal the
vessel. AS a consequence she ran
rather short of coal before reaching
this port.
The Zealandia brought for this
port 5 steerage passengers and Il
tons of cargo. In transit for San
Francisco she had 80 cabin and So
steerage passengers, 295 tons of
freight and considerable specie.
Among her through passengers was
Mr.. Johnston, Manager of the Mel
bourne Tramways Company.
While in port the steamer took in
two hundred tons of coal, two hun
dred tons of sugar and about 270O
punches of bananas. Cabin passen-

Beautiful Dress Gloves.

A beautiful dress glove, designed by
Nj. Fontaine, is made of cream-white
undressed kid, sixteen-button length,
but mousquetaire-shape exquisitely en-
broidered. On each glove long rose
bud trail is taken round and round the
arm, as the serpent bracelet might go,
till it ends at the very top. The en-
broidery is most beautiful, very del
icate, and true reproduction of nature,
as all French fower-work is. The effect
is as if fresh young spray of rosebuds
had been twined round the arms instead
of bracelets. The gloves would look
lovely with white rose-trimmed toilet.
In tan shades alone NJ. Fontaine dis.
played three hundred varied tints at the
Paris Exposition. Among novel gdnts
are those of mastic and Suede tilburved
with lilac. NJ. Fontaine makes a spe-
cialty of black Suede glove, the inside
being perfectly white. 1t is said that in
the manufacture of Suede gloves, both
black and dark, the gloves are first
coated" to keep the dye from marring
the inside, then brushed instead of
being plunged, a long and elaborate
process as each skin has to be brushed
with color again and again, and dried
after each brushing.-N. Y. Evening
Post.

Origin of a Popular Phrase.

Two noblemen in the reign Of Maxi
milan II. (1564-1576), one German, the
other a Spaniard, who had each rem
dered great service to the Emperor,
asked the hand of his daughter, Helena,
in marriage. Maximilian said: THAT
as he esteemed them both alike, it wag
impossible to choose between them,
and therefore their own prowess must
decide it; but being unwilling to risk
the loss of either by engaging them in
deadly combat, he ordered large sack
to be brought, and declared that he who
should put his rival into it should have
his fair Helena" And this whimsical
combat was actually performed in the
presence of the imperial court, and last.
ed an hour. The unhappy Spanish no.
bleman was the first overcome, and the
German succeeded in enveloping him in
the sack, took him upon his back and
laid him at the feet of the Emperor.
This comical combat Is said TO be the
origin Of the phrase give him the
sack" so common in the literature Oh
