THE CHINA.
Proposal to Celebrate Her En-
trance Into the Harbor.


trance Into the Harbor.
Mr.. EDITOR The monarch mail
steamship China, the largest mer-
chant steamer in the Pacific, is cue
to arrive here from Japan on Mon
day next, On her way to San Fran
cisco, and the writer happens to
know that Commander Seabury,
the genial chief, is expecting a
demonstration from the public and
the government, on his bringing his
great ship over the bar into the
harbor of Honolulu in safety, an
event which will be heralded by
associated press dispatches through
out the world, for the information
and benefit of all the merchant
fleets and navies. Our papers
should contain the fullest accounts
of this, a most important event, and
all parties DESTROYS of promoting
the mercantile interests of this
port, merchant steamship agencies,
officials and others, should heartily
join in making popular demon
stration in honor of this important
and national occasion.
Some months ago, just after the
completion of the work of deepen
ing the bar, and before the APP.
proach to the Pacific Mail wharf
was excavated to a depth cores
ponding with the bar, the China
was expected. The Chamber of
Commerce, of this city, held a
meeting. 1t was arranged that a
suitable reception should be given
this grand steamer by the firing of
salutes, ringing of bells, and the
government tug with the band and
representative committee on board
meeting the steamer at the en-
trance and escortlng her into the
harbor; but owing to small pox
abroad, she passed directly on to
San Francisco.
The opportunity should not now
be missed for a demonstration as
before proposed. A similar event
happening in San Francisco, the
whole press would be teeming with
accounts of it, and the entire COM
munity would become enthusiastic
and have the matter in hand, but
old sleepy Honolulu needs almost
an earthquake to shake it up into
action in its own interests. Verbum
sap .sapeinte.

WISE AND OTHERWISE.

Little or nothing has transpire d
here regarding the contents of
Minister Blount's reports to the
United States government. Some
time ago a dispatch was published
in the Eastern press intimating
that Cleveland would favor a pro-
tectorate over Hawaii. The Phila-
Record of May Both published a
dispatch, dated at Washington the
day before, which contains the fol-
lowing reference to the subject ::
"The reports sent in thus far by
Mr.. Blount from Honolulu con-
firm the Presidents view that a
protectorate rather than annexa-
ton is most desirable in our future
relations with Hawaii. The pres
ent attitude Of the Administration
appears to be one of watchful nom
interference, with a determination
that no other Government shall
interfere in Hawaiian affairs The
Provisional government at Homo
lulu will be recognized as long as
it maintains itself"

The cholera season is at
hand again aud it behooves
people to establish a quaran-
tine against it. 1t is not
necessary to fumigate your
house with i'll smelling cheml-
Gals, the thing can be success
fully accomplished with the
use of an Ozonator for
closets and sick rooms. and the
Improved Natural Stone Fill
ter.
The Ozonator has been
adopted by the managers of
transatlantic steamers and the
result has been most satisfac-
tory; the dangers of cholera
breaking out on the vessels has
been reduced to a minimum
and at so little expense that it
is worth your while trying
it. The machine is so nicely ar
ranged that it may be placed
anywhere in the house and be
considered as an ornament.
There's no bad odor about the
thing and the effect is better
than if there was. as a matter
of fact there is neither healing
quality or commercial value IN
a bad smell.
The filter mentioned above,
is without exception the best
that has ever been introduced,
and they are more generally
used here than any other.
Being constructed of stone,
they are easily cleaned and
have mono of the troublesome
cOntrivances found in every
other filter sold: two minutes
in the morning and the use of
a small brush, makes the filter
as sweet and clean as you wish.
There is no limit as to the
time these filters last; we have
them IN daily use at the store
for nearly four years, and they
are as good today as when we
began using them. Patholo-
gists will tell you that more
diseases ensue from the use of
| bad or impure water than from
any other source, they will also
tell you that to boil the water
will not answer the purpose
half so we'll as to filter it. If
you believe what the doctor
tells you, you should believe
our statement of the superio-
rity of the Improved Natural
Stone Filter and come and buy
one.

Carter, Of the building committee,
with the advice of the executive
council, had ordered the building to

$1,000, and would accommodate all
tue immigrants expected Jane Goth.
An effort to have interested persons
aid had failed. Therefore, with the
approval of the cabinet, the building
had been commenced, and would be
paid for out of the appropriation for
the maintenance of quarantine build
iDgs. If the appropriation ran short,
as the necessity was great, the gov
eminent would be obliged to make it
good. The board of immigration had
not helped because their appropria-
ton was almost out.
G. 3. Reynolds said the building
was separated from old buildings.
Mr.. Carter thought the appropria-
ton could be used. The auditor.
general had agreed that such use was
legitimate.
Mr.. Waterhouse moved the presi-
dents action be approved. Carried.
a letter from DR.. Henri McGrew
was read asking for leave of absence
for three months from July l, as he
wished to travel abroad for his
health. Granted.
Action was deferred after discus

The armored cruiser New York

q knot an hour. Vessels of the
same class have been designed in
the British navy to steam %
knots, but they have thus far
failed to accomplish the feat. The
cruiser Blake, which attracted so
much attention at the naval re-
view at New York, was one of
these, but her speed fell below

vessels of other nations are the
Russian cruiser Admiral Korniloff,
with a record of 10 knots; the
French cruiser Tage, with 20 knots /;
and the Spanish cruiser Reina
