SPECIAL TO THE P. c. ADyEErIsrR.I
On Friday morning the cruiser
Boston was sighted from Honokaa
bound for Hilo, and at P. NJ. she
came to anchor in the bay. Our
anticipations of receiving a foreign
mail by her, which had been lying
in Honolulu for six days were soon
knocked in the head. After an in
terview with the Consular Agent
by the officers Of the vessel, the
sailors, who had in a large measure
recovered by this time, were taken
on board. The water front was we'll
lined with spectators to see the first
vessel Of the new American navy
that has come to this port, and
many happy comments were made
as to what fine formidable vessel
she was. A general feeling of pride
ran through the American portion
of the community. In the evening
she interested the townspeople by
flashing her search light over the
bay, the town, and the coast line,
and many an "auwe" came from
the native spectators. At 6 in the
morning she steamed out on a
cruise and after heading for East
point and almost reaching it, she
started off in an easterly direction.
She was sighted at various times
till Sunday night and on that night
her search light was seen. Before
this has reached you she will likely
be back in her old quarters again
in your harbor. The missing boat
has not been heard from and their
probable only chance of rescue is
in being picked up by some passing
vessel.

OYSTERS AND SEEDS

Are valuable for what's in 'em. Good
and bad oysters look alike in the shell.
Good and bad seeds often have the same
appearance. Any one can tell worth
less oyster on opening it. The value of
a seed must be determined by its growth.
This makes its quality worth considering.
You want seeds that will grow, and you
want the product to be of value. There
is but one guarantee; the reliability OF
the firm from which you buy.

THE NITHAU PILGRIMS.

NCoGCl-
THE NITHAU PILGRIMS.
The six natives from Niihau, who
came on pilgrimage to Mokuola
at the suggestion of their kahuna,
arrived and have distributed them
selves among their friends. Whether
they have tried the health test Of
Mokuola yet or not, the writer has
been unable to find but if they
have accomplished the required
swim in good shape they should
return to Niihau assured at least of
a good pair of lungs each. The
native tradition regarding Mokuola,
which is q rock out in the bathing
place at Cocoanut Island, is that
anyone who has been able to make
the circuit of the rock three times
under water is possessed and is as
sured of good health. AS the dive
is just of sufficient length to give
our best swimmers the most they
can do, it is reasonable to infer that
a stranger accomplishing it need
not worry over his health for a
short time yet. In talking with
some natives l find that it is not
uncommon for natives to come
from the other islands and from
this island also, to test the virtue
supposed to lie in Mokuola.
SKETCHES OF THE WRECKED SHIP.
Our photographer, Mr.. Silva,
has series of three photo
graphs of the wreck of the ship
". II. Campbell, which has
caused so much excitement here
during the past weeks. They
are taken from sketches in water
color made by one of the rescued
sailors, and represent the ship I'M
der full sail, as she appeared while
the hurricane was at its height and
the masts were being carried away
and, lastly, as she was when they
left her, dense black cloud O
smoke rising from her cabin, which
was on fire. The three form an in
teresting memento of the sad event
which so worked up the town.

There are coats that come to the feet,
and wraps ditto, but the box coat of
sealskin and the half long mantle are
oftener seen. One odd and not alto
gether pretty fashion is to have the col
lar arranged i'll such q way as to re-
senble wide ostrich tips and the edges
scalloped. 1t is really becoming, how
ever.
One of the prettiest wraps OF this sea-
son is of black astrakhan laid in plaits.
and with high scalloped collar. Little
pockets are placed in each side of the lin
ing for holding the purse, etc. The only
objection to these is that wearing fur
against the hair is very injurious to the
hair.
Another handsome cape is made of
sealsllin, with IL boa of mink or Russian
sable, if one can afford it, There are
fewer of the little pneumonia breeding
capes that reach only to the waist line,
and the lady who cannot obtain one or
the other of the new fur coats or capes
will pass very unhappy winter, so she
will.
Some of the walking dresses of this
season are very pretty, and evidently
have been designed by some one who
possesses a fair share of common sense,
which tones down the ridiculous tenden-
cies toward empire styles. don't mind
q real empire gown OH the proper per-
son, which Is pretty young woman,
neither fat nor thin, but with trim fig
ure, and with much natural grace of
movement, but the worst of it is that ey-
cry one thinks herself exactly the kind
that would be charming in an empire
gown-a sort of superior Josephine or
idealized Recamier.
l could not express strongly enough
the sort of picture they make. They
move brusquely, and every angular point
or movement is accumulated. Let rs
hope that the empire will not become
arbitrary, but will allow us little lati-
tude of choice-at least enough for the
pretty walking dress below, which is a
type of modern taste.
The dress is of gray cheviot, with
three narrow green Jet studded braids.
The sleeves and waist are of cheviot,
with combination of green and gray
brocade silk, with belt, windmill bow
and lapels of green velvet bound with
silver braid. The toque is of cheviot,
with silver buckle and green coque
plumes. When the weather is very cold,
vest of channels is worn under the
waist and keeps the wearer as warm as
toast, but people who see the wearer
now without wrap would be apt to
think that the young lady must be very
cold or have remarkable constitution
