WILL NOT MOVE.
The Mi0wera is Anchored in
Her Last Resting Place.


Yesterday morning, thure was very
little general freight left in the holc
of the Miowera. OF her 1900 tons OF
coal less than 300 tons remained on
board.
II. Hackfeld & Co.'S steam scow
took out a 1000 pound anchor In the
morning, but Capt. Stott did not
| want it at the time so it was returned
ashore.
During the forenoon, the following
| officials went out on the tug TO the
grounded steamer: Ministers J. y.
King and w. o. Smith, Col. ]. II.
Soper, Captains Pratt and Zeigler of
the National Guards, w. E. Row
ell, and Capt. P. Smith, of the
dredger.
At noon yesterday, the L. s. s. Adj
like and the tug Eleu took up positions
for another tug at the Miowera. The
Adams was about $50 fathoms from
the steamer and the other vessels were
placed almost equal distances between
the Adams and the Canadian-Austra-
liam liner, with all their noses point
ing seward, south by east. The big
stranded steamer had not changed her
position of the day before, only that
her bow pointed a little more to the
south.
The swell was very high yesterday
where the steamers were Juggling at
the vessel, but 1t did not materially
aid the work.
One of the blades of the propeller
is now visible above the surface of the
water. -.. --
For over an hour at the flood tide,
from l to 2:1O p. NJ, the assisting vessels
eXerted their utmost power to get the
Miowera off her perilous position, but
their combined efforts were futile.
During the tug, the Adams parted her
seven-inch hawser, the report caused
thereby being heard some distance.
The Likelike also parted hawser
during the struggle.
The vessels all ceased their efforts
at 20 P. NJ, the Eleu returning to her
berth in port, bringing ashore the Off
Gals who accompanied her out in the
morning.
4 From the officials and Capt. Rice,
and Enoineer FarnswOrth, it was
learned TT the Miowera was now
worse off than ever, and the opinion
prevails she will never come off the
reef.
81 have given up all hopes of float
ing her" said Captain Rice to an AID
vERTIsER reporter. "The govern
ment should have more powerful
tug" he continued "why, Spreckels'
tug Relief, in the San Francisco har-
Dor can do more towing than the
whole four of us who were out there
battered if this heavy swell cOntlfis..1
until tomorrow evening"
Two 5OO0Ib. anchors belonging to the
United States Government, which
have been lying in Hustace d Co.'s
yard, on Queen street, were taken out
to the Miowera in scow last night.
Mr.. w. II. Hogs delivered the an
chors at the wharf.
The Miowera now have six large
anchors down on her starboard quar-
ter, each anchor weighing from to
q tons.
Another effort will be made to float
the Miowera at high tide large at 2:4O
PM. today.

REPAIRS ON
TYPEWRITERS

are expensive, espe-
clally III Honolulu, where we
have no one who understands
such work. Some part of the
mechanism of a complex ma
chine becoming deranged or
broken, the typewriter is
useless.
Here is where the superior
merit OF the New Caligraph
comes in. It's construction is
so practical and simple that it
seldom gets out of order or
needs repairing. Hence, their
age of usefulness is prolonged.
Users of typewriters appre-
clate the Importance of exclud-
ing dust from these delicate
machines.
Our Roll Top Desk with
numerous draws and pigeon
holes, are suitable for bust
ness besides concealing the
Caligraph when not in
use. When the typewriter is
wanted, raise the lid and the
machine comes out from its
hiding, ready for work. These
oak roll top desks go to a pur-
chaser of Caligraph for Il
mere trifle.
1t will pay you to investi-
gate and decide for yourself.

\ number of rumors were float
ing around yesterday regarding the
intended sailing of the Australia
before her usual time. Although
the passengers by the Miowera will
take passage by the Australia, it is
not at all probable that the vessel
will sail for the coast before next
Saturday.

international Signal Code.

Most persons know that the signals
Of the international code are communi-
Gated by the means Of flags. There are
eighteen Of these says the New York
Times aud each one represents a letter
Words not spelled with these letters
but cipher combinations are formed
or these eighteen flags one is swallow
tailed peunant Cor burgess, four are
triangular remnants and the rest are
square flags.
The flags bear diifsrnt combinations
of colors, and the landsman's first
thought would naturally be that when
the weather made the coors indistin-
guishable, signaling would be at an end,
But such is not the case In the first
place the boists of signal flags are divided
into several classes, according to the
number of flags used, and again sub
divided according to the shape of the
flags. Thus two.hag signal (under

Schooling at Twenty Dollars a Year


However moderate the expenses of q
student of the present time may be they
can hardly reach the extremely modest
sum which sufficed for Jean Marmontel,
French poet, during the reign of Louis
XIV, for years schooling. In his
Memoirs he speaks of his school life
as follows:
was lodged, as was the custom of
the school, with five other scholars at
the house of an honest mechanic.
My provisions for week consisted
Of large loaf Of rye bread, little
cheese, piece of bacon and two or three
POUNDS of beef. My mother had added
to them dozen apples,
This was the weekly provision of the
best fed scholar of the school. The mis-
tress of the house cooked for us, and for
her trouble, her fire, her lamp, her beds,
her houseroom, including even the vege-
tables of her little garden which she used
for our soup. each of us gave her twelve
pence halfpenny a month.
Reckoning everything except my
clothes, cost my father between four
and five pounds year, This was much
to him and an expense of which / was
very anxious to see him relieved.
