THE SCHOONER MARY FOSTER.

The non.appearance of the Ha-
waiian schooner Mary Foster now
supposed to be some weeks over
due is exciting some comment in
the community and not little
anxiety in those who are expect
ing relatives or friends, and yet
her detention may be due to cir
scumstances, by which, from the
very nature of her employment,
she was liable to be affected.
The Mary Foster left this port
for Laysan Island on the 10th of
August expecting to meet the
barque Elizabeth Nicholson, which
had sailed for the island four DAYS
earlier,-to assist in loading her
with guano and then, after the
barque had completed her cargo
and sailed for Europe, the schooner
was to embark Mr.. Freeth the man
ager and his sons, with such other

WILDER,S S. S. KINAU.
Viii Resume Her Trips to Wind
ward Next Week.

The steamer Kinau is announced
to resume her regular trips to Maul
and Hawaii next Tuesday afternoon
She came off the Marine Railway on
Friday afternoon, after having re
ceived a. new four bladed propeller;
the mate of the one which she had
used during the past nine years.
During the few months that the
Kinau has been laid up, she has had
two twenty-ton boilers pat IN. These
boilers were built by the Honolulu
Iron Works, and are claimed to be
just as good, if not superior to, the
former ones. The work is very
creditable to the builders. Tho en-
CINE department has been over
hauled and renovated. Chief En-,
gineer Stowe personally superin-
tended the removing and re-iittlng
of the various pieces of machinery
and it is expected that everything
will work smoothly.
The new boilers will be tested to-
day, and the engines also.
The saloon looks very pretty. The
interior is painted with dark but
shining colors of high finish, Civ
ing it an appearance both beautiful
and attractive. The state rooms were
also renovated, and nothing tending
to the comfort and pleasure of pas
sengers has been omitted.

employees OF the company as were
to return, and make the best of her
way to Honolulu.
Laysan is nearly thousand
miles from Honolulu and the Mary
Foster has made the homcward
passage several times in periods
varying from ten to nineteen days
and the round trip generally in
about month Or five weeks.
The anchorage at Laysan is un-
sheltered except from the preva-
lent E. N. E. winds SO that if a
gale should come on anywhere
from the westward, ship must
either weigh or slip her anchors
and go to sea till the blow was
over, and then work back again to
her anchorage.
The Elizabeth Nicholson is a
barque of 904 tons and will take
400 tons of guano, she sails well,
is in good condition and we'll
found, and came here in thirty
days from Acapulco with 400 tons
of gravel ballast on board.
1t is impossible here to make
any very near estimate of the time
required to discharge the ballast
and take on board, by means of
scows, the ladlng of guano, bat it
is very possible that the loading
may have been interrupted by a
westerly gale and that the barque
had to go to sea, and that all COM
munication may have been sus-
pended for two or three weeks be-
fore the work could be resumed.
Again, Laysan Island is alto
gether to leeward of Honolulu; at
this time of the year there are no
trades to speak of in the latitude of
the island and the schooner might
have to go long way north in
hopes of getting slant of westerly
wind and "a long passage home
ward is moreprobable than q quick
one.
The barque has been gone two
months and three weeks or eighty
five days, the schooner four days
less, giving the former fourteen
days to reach the island and get TO
work, and the latter twenty-one
days for her return passage, there
remain fifteen days for loading. If,
as we have said, it is not improbable
that the work has been interrupted
by the barque having to go to sea
when half loaded, and the schooner
makes long passage home, there
is not much time left unaccounted
for. There can be no cause yet for
anxiety about the vessel.

UNITED STATES WATER FILTER.
1t is hardly necessary to direct the
attention of the public to the fact that
pure water is one OF the principal agents
in preserving health and insuring per-
feet comfort in household. The germ
of our most malignant diseases can be
traced back to impure water.
The filter works easily, and, like
magic, turns the impurest water into a
perfectly colorless and absolutely pure
liquid.
This apparatus is attached to the or
binary water-pipe and filters rapidly. 1t
is displacing the old slow-working filters
in the United States.

Of very much the same sort are
the mendacious anecdotes of Ruth
Ward. The idea of working a Sec
ton of the Encyclopia Britannica
into ones own experience, giving
thus to a disembodied ant story a
local habitation and q name is as
ingenious as it is disingenuous.
We of Honolulu, who are older
fashioned in our methods, are apt
to be somewhat startled by the
cold-blooded audacity of such falsi-
flying, but it implies quality doubt
less common enough elsewhere.
or course stories like those of
Ruth Ward do not hurt the Islands
at all. We are not interested in
herself, her "ants," or any of her
relatives. But such stories are i'm
portant because they exemplify an
ignorance which can be and which
has been very injurious to these
Islands because it furnishes an at
mosphere in which false and dan
gerous stories spring up thrive and
are believed-often greatly to our
damage. The credit of the Islands
has suffered much at one time or
another, through such stories. The
diffusion of correct information
about this Kingdom would put an
end to the evil.
This is, however, merely a mega
tive advantage. The grand object
OF making the Islands known is to
advertise their attractions for the
tourist world. The travelling public
is a real world by itself. A rela-
lively thin stream diverted to our
shores from the great river of
travel would fill our reservoirs.
The tourist business, if properly
developed, might bring-we say it
neutrality-suspicious. of dollars an.
nually into this Kingdom.

Turn, turn my wheel! Turn round and

Without pause, without a sound:
So spi S the flying world away;
This CLAW, well mixed with mari and sand
Follows the motion of my hand;
For some must follow and some command,
Though all are made of clayn
That reminds us! Do you
admire the beautiful in art as
applied to Pottery? Yes
Then look in at the few odd
pieces we have in our cases.
They are only the first words
in the chapter from the fascin-
ating story the piles of un-
packed casks will tell to your
eyes a month hence. Too
much elegance at once is
worse than too little. Well
give it to you in moderate
doses.
The world is full of humbug,
and there's alavays a market
for it; pottery humbug and
other sorts: people like it
hence it hourishes. But have
you ever seen any humbug
about RooKWooD? We hav'nt,
neither have you, and yet the
trade in it is fourishing. Pot
terry is too plebeian a word to
use in this connection, but the
photographers say they can't
find one elegant enough to
mix with it, and combining the
two lifts Pottery from the hum
bic position it has occupied so
many thousand years. Rock
WOOD deserves something bet
ter, but we can't coin names
perhaps yow can suggest one?
1t you wear a moustache
and drink tea or coffee,
you've noticed that you have
to wipe your fascinater every
time you take a mouthful of
either beverage. It's a lot of
bother, and the napkins are
solled at every meal. You
can't do without a napkin, and
you wouldn't part with your
moustache for a trihe. The
chances are that the person
who invented the means to
avoid such trouble and dirt
was a woman. They're full of
good ideas, and the Moustache
Cup is one of them. If your
husband has a moustache and
soils the linen with it, he ought
to have a cup. If your boy
has a suspicion of a moustache
he'll think he must have one
to save annoyance. You'd
better get him one; it won't
hurt you, and it'll make him
feel lots bigger. We have
them in Haviland, and you
can get one or a dozen.
When the light shines on a
table decorated with Cut Glass,
and the rays touch each indiv-
ldual trace of the artists hand.
what a prismatic display fol-
lows. Let the sun shine
through your dining-room win
dow upon real Cut Glass, and
you have a picture you may
watch for hours with no desire
tor a change. In purchasing
Cut Glass you serve two pur-
poses. First: utility and the
the next to please the eye.
What guest would not enjoy a
meal more if the dishes har-
monized with the edibles?
We don't ask you to come
in and buy. -Ala0ays remember
that fact. We merely suggest
that you come in and examine

STORY TELLING.

If anyone ever doubted the i'm
portance of diffusing correct infor-
nation about the Islands abroad,
the perusal of DR.. Lyons interest
ing paper must have dissipated his
doubts. The causes of the ignor-
ance and false knowledge about
the Islands are mainly the want
of any source of correct infor-
nation, the careless observation
as we'll as the intentional misrepre-
sentation of travellers. The insa-
table appetite of the public for
news leads to the many lively in
ventions and canards. The short
story connected with G. w. Ash
ford's name is a clear case of
"spontaneous generation" in the
brain of some enterprising reporter.
Such stories go the rounds of the
press and make a paper sell.
