American flag of the consul and with
the stars and stripes flying at masthead
steamed away.
A day and night of alternating calm
and storm, through rocky passages and
over dangerous shoals and we were at
Cat island, which Washington Irving
made famous and our old Biographies
solemnly confirmed as the San Salvador
Of Columbus. For half day we steamed
along the coast of Cat island, and ex-
anined it very carefully. 1t bears no
resemblance whatever to the island
which Columbus described in his jour
nal. For fifty years it has been San
Salvador under false pretcnses
In the afternoon we reached Watlings.
Palm trees and hazy vistas, matched
huts and outlying reefs over which the
surt broke lazily marked its shores. A
boat at once put off to us. 1t contained
all the officials Of the island-the local
magistrate, the port officer, the post
master, the sheriff, the colonel of the
militia and many more-all in the per-
son of Captain Maxwell Marin, the only
white resident of the island, a veritable
| Pooh Bah monarch of coral isle. His
salary is 5000 year, and he has been
there thirty years,
Captain Nairn became our guide,
counselor, friend and foonan, With
him we explored tho island. A coral
rock it is, u dozen miles long and half
as broad, containing largo lagoons Of
bracliish water, covered with tropical
vegetation, nearly surrounded by reefs
Eight hundred negroes live here, filling
Z altogether probably score Of acres Of
| land, subsisting principally on fish and
/ other sea food. They are an honest,
! pious, temperate people. Their chief
! failing is a predispositiOn toward piracy,
! and woe to the cargo OF the ship that il
wrecked upon their shores. This pirat-
/ ical tendency they came naturally by.
/ for this coral island was once the reudez-

of these poor people are no doubt his
direct descendants.

turn the great discoyerer was suggested.

Religious Convention,

The Christian Eudeayor convention which closed its session last evening in New York city, was the largest religious conference ever held ID America. There were upwards of 25,O00 delegates. The society was born m the W llIston Con gregational church Portland, Maine, less than half dozen years ago. and today, tbe membership is l,370,200. This if the only religious society of young peO- pie that is wholly undenominational. All the other societies are rigidly demo minatioDal, sectarian. and used as pro- selyting powers for the church, with winch they are connected; teaching the discipline and loyalty 10 that one organi- zatIon.

Sheriff Truman, Deputy Sheriff Thomas and Ches. Mason arrived oD this mornings train from Florence, bringing with them Frank KiObey who mas been transferred to the jail ID Tue son. Mir. kibbey presents a very dis dressing picture. Previous to the shoot ing It has been stated he was drinking heavily and since the shooting the affair mas had such an effect upon him to gether with close confinement in jail that KIbbey hardly seems to recognize men who have known him for long time. It is claimed, not as subterfuge, but as a reality that the man appears to be cemented. With all the gloom and sorrow that this act has brought upon those interested it is evident that demon drink was an aggressive factor in this un- fortunate tragedy.

OPIUM LICENSE BILL.

The opium traffic was licensed in
this country for period some time |
before the famous episode of 1886
The evidence of the late Marshal
Parke and the then Deputy Marshal
Dayton, obtained among a series of
interviews gathered by the editor of
this paper six or seven years ago,
was that under license the opium
habit because prevalent among all
nationalities. 1t was common to see
natives and white men lying pros
trated in Chinatown under the in
fluence of the drug. Mr.. Dayton's
opinion was expressed something
like this: "Opium is as much worse
than whisky as whisky is than this
cigar am smoking" At the same
time several prominent residents,
some of whom only survive in the
country's history, were in favor of
licensing opium for the same reason
that is given to-day, that it would
be better than to have opium snug
gled under prohibition. 1t is GER
tainly impossible to wholly prevent
smuggling on such coast line as
ours, without a revenue protective
fleet such as the country could not
afford. Nothing but the inordinate
howl for political purposes at the
authorities because they could not
do impossibilities, kept up for the
past year or two by such violent
partisans as some of those now agi-
tating against license, has given
strength to the presently pending
measure. Mr.. Peck is only indulging
in guess work when he says, "It is
certain that the great majority OF
the people are strongly opposed" tc
the bill-that is if he means opposed
to license. The bulk of voluntary
expressions heard whenever the mat
ter has been mentioned for years
past is rather to the contrary. Still
it is the fact that a majority of the
present Legislature was not elected
on an opium license issue. Those
members returned after having a
: candidates declared themselves to b,
in favor of licensing opium consti
tute only a small minority of th
: House. 1t would be wise, therefore
for the Legislature to make hast
slowly in SO important matter. In
stead of passing the bill this session
especially as it was introduced il
unsatisfactory shape and has beel
subjected to considerable tinkerins
since-the whole subject might vel
be referred to commission to repor
to the session of 1894.

Notice to the Public.

The Honest People of Honolulu
The Shirt Question is still in the
minds of the public and wish to
make standing statement in regard
to the Luning-J ohnson matter. On
or about the I'd day of December
lot of old shirts was left in my Office
with instructions to repair them by
one signed Luning. l did repair
the shirts, and a few days later this
man Luning, accompanied by his
wife, called and brought another
shirt to be repaired, and also asking
to see the first lot of shirts. l show
ed them and they were both we'll
pleased and said the job was we'll
done, and told me that the China
man would call on Monday and take
them to be re-laundried. This was
on Saturday previous to Monday
mentioned, and when I finished the
last shirt 1 brought the bill to
Luning at his Office He got excited
but / did not scare, and simply
told him l would like to collect
money for my work. He used some
very hot words and said | had a
cheek to ask for my money then,
and he said he would ruin me, but
still l did not scare. / told Luning
in presence of witness that he was
welcome to call at my place of bust
ness, where have room enclosed,
and he could try on the shirts there,
but he would not do it. No doubt
Mr.. Luning thought he had dead
easy game, but he was like the man
that fell out of the balloon-he was
simply not in it. l will say this,
that in any case make new shirts
and if they do not give entire salts
faction / will alter them, make new
shirts, or refund the money. Can
any person do more7 will also
keep in repair all shirts made by me
for two years free of charge, for /
am as quiet as lamb.

Mr.. H. w. Peck recommends, as
better than licensing opium, that
"Chinese" be fined $4,000 to $4,000
or go out of the country" 1t would
be more effective still to have the
monster shot To be serious, such a
law as Mr.. Peck desires would be un-
constitutional, and any proposal to
make it applicable to all nationali-
ties would be ncontinently squelch-
cd. Some of Mr.. Peck's arguments
against an opium license are force
iul, and he should not spoil them
with ridiculous propositions.
