The Origin of Plum Duff.

There are MANY traditions re-
specting the origin of the name
opium Duff" the great holiday
dish of sailors. No feast on ship
board is considered perfect without
it. According to the story given in
the history of the British navy, an
English brig in the South Pacific
was caught in a series of awful
hurricanes. All on board were
anxious to reach a port in time for
Christmas, but the holiday found
them still off the Navigator Islands
Worst of all, they had shipped a
sea that carried away the hencoop
containing a few chickens. When
the cook saw the Christmas dinner
floating in the lee scuppers and in
danger of going overheard, he made
gallant charge down the slippery,
sloping deck to recover it; but at
that moment a great wave rose
high over the bulwarks, broke with
resistless fury on the very spot
where he stood, and when it subsid-
ed cook and chickens had both
disappeared.

THE SETTLEMENT.
The Board of Health to Make Tisit of
Inspection.

The Board of Health to Make a Tisit of
Inspection.
Yesterday evening the steamer
Lehua left for Molokai carrying as
passengers the members of the
Board of Health, and two or three
others. The object of the trip is to
make thorough inspection of the
condition of the settlement.
There are a number of matters
at the settlement which require
the personal attention of the auth
critics. The Legislature of 1892
passed law providing for the
acquisition of kuleanas by the Gov
eminent, which has not yet been
put into practical operation. The
establishment of a reservoir is an
other matter to be settled, the Leg
islature having made the neces-
sary appropriation. The Board
also desire to ascertain whether
some plan can not be devised by
which the lepers can get their
supplies of wood more easily than
at present.
This has been a subject of COM
plant for long time. The inhabi-
tants of the valley have now to go
considerable distances and climb
the windy pals in order to obtain
scanty supply. The proposition
has been made to plant a row of
hardy trees, at some suitable place,
as a barrier against the wind, and
behind these to start a forest. By
this means it is thought that a
supply of wood can easily be OBJ
tanned.
DR.. Goto, the japanese specialist,
is now experimenting at Molokai,
and his work will be made the sub
ject of inquiry. There are also a
number eff lepers who are to be re-
examined. All these matters re-
quire the presence of the Board.
Saturday will be spent by the
visiting party at the Settlement,
and the following morning the Lee
hua will again be due in Honolulu.
No permits were issued to members
of the Press.

This unfortunate accident left
the crew not only without Christ
mas dinner, but without any one
to prepare an ordinary meal. The
sailors were heartily sick of "hard-
tack" and remembered with long
ing the famous plum pudding of
Merrie England. They determined
that somehow they must have
Christmas pudding, and drew lots
as to who should be cook. The
choice fell on the boatswain's mate,
a brawny son of the Emerald Isle.
In the galley he found an old
cook book. This he solemnly
pored over in search Of something
promising, but for lack of skill or
materials, found nothing he dared
venture upon. At last he settled
upon a recipe which began, MAKE
a stiff dough" When he reached
the word dough he said to himself,
'If rough spells ruff, dough
spells duff" So he made the pud-
ding, putting in some fine Malaga
raisins, and served it out with a
generous quantity of rich sauce.
The sailors hailed it with delight
and appreciation. "What dye call
it?" they asked. plum Duff"
said the proud cook. And plum
duff it has remained from that day
to this Elk.
