ing when they would leave. Such a
thing as quarrel among the new
corners is unknown at the station, and
strict orders are given to all the en-
ployees of the immigration Department
to speak kindly to them and give them
every assistance required. A separate
building provided with beds and other
necessaries is used as a hospital when
required. Of the present consign.
ment five were suffering from dysentery
when landed. These were placed in
the hospital building and treated by a
japanese physician from the city. One
of them, who was sick from the same
cause during the voyage, became so
much worse on Saturday morning that
Minister King ordered him sent to the

Letter From a Soldier.

EDITOR STAR: BY chance | noticed
in copy of the Bulletin Of October
10th an item abiding to the 'foolish
aud unwarranted display of sentry's
bravery" Now, being the sentry, am
supposed to know what my orders are
and how to carry them out. The
company was challenged at some dis
lance away, and after demanding halt
the third time and receiving no reply,
| ouly fulfilled my orders from head
quarters by firing; and as to the second
shot, it was fired by another sentry
after giving the company the required
challenges and receiving no answer.
Now, if the writer of that illiterate
attempt at the English language knows
more about my orders than do, and
if be claims the authority of quoting
and debating for the P. G. army, just
let him call around and turn them in
at headquarters, where he may receive
due compliments for his high privileges.
AS to the incompetence of the SOL
diers Of Company F. handling firearms,
that can be easily tested at any time
that 1t may suit the convenience of our
Royalist critic, Respectfully,
c. F. FANEUF,
Company E.

Yesterdays Rain.

The rain of yesterday came from the
south and did not extend beyond the
electric light station at Nuuanu valley.
1t looked for awhile as though regu-
lar southerly storm was on hand, but il
only turned out to be what c. ]. Lyons
terms "a tentative effort at kona." A
high barometer saved the situation. The
total rainfall at Punahou was oil OF
an inch. At 4 o'clock this morning
there was very distinct halo around
the moon, which Mr. Lyons says is a
sign of atmospheric disturbance That
gentleman says that southerly storm
may be expected about the end of this
week, if not sooner, and that interested
parties will do well to prepare for it.

Total. .............. 8o7

The remaining 647 will be sent away
tomorrow to Makaweli, Waianae,
Oakala, Kau, Paia, Haiku, Hama and
Honaka.
While at the station the reporter paid
a visit to the quarters set apart for
cabin passengers when required. These
are in large house situated in a grove
of trees, about $50 yards from the
japanese quarters. The house contains
thirteen rooms, each of which is furn-
ished with brass bedsteads, bedding,
ETC., and looks neat and comfortable.
There is also neat cottage for the
man who takes care of the grounds and
looks after the telephone, besides
various other buildings and conven.
fences. Much more might be said on
this subject, but as to the treatment of
the immigrants there can be but one
opinion They are well looked after,
well treated and well fed.

McDOWELL'S WORKMEN
Force Him to Take Refuge in the
Police Station.

The wofkmen employed by Captain
Mcdowell are still anxiously awaiting
his pleasure to pay them off for their
services on the Miowera contract, but
as yet have not seen the color of his
coin. When the workmen, who
had congregated about the premises OF
Theo. H. Davies & Co. at an
early hour this morning, found that that
firm was not liable for their wages and
that they must look to Mcdowell alone,
they became incensed and some Of
them made threats of bodily injury if
he did not pay them at once. Nc
Dowell evidently thought the men
meant what they said, for he sought
the protection of the Marshal and was
accommodated with a seat in the Po-
lice Station for about two hours, while
the len cooled off The men have
not been paid as yet, and the prospects
that they will be are decidedly slim.

He'll stay right here an chaw the grass till the

He'll chaw that corner off today until he's ct 1t

over there.
Looks bad, yer say, to see a caff out in mans

An blattin like a barnyard on this stylish boole-
ward,
But that air caff shall eat that grass until get
him fat,
An if he feels like blattin, WY, reckon he will
blat.
Wen fust took my farm out here, this wuz
country road;
Across the way wuz parstchure Ian, where
huckleberries growed.
My catf wuz then hitched in my yard for the
hull towns inspection,
An no darn enterprisin dood cum round to
make objection.
Wen this road growed village street, my caff
wuz in the yard
An now the street it swells 18th style-a city
boulevard.
But will hitch this ere young caf out here in
my front lawn;
He'll stay right here an chaw the grass till the
hull thing is chawn.
You say the way carry on makes the hull city
laff.
Waal, let em laugh; this 'ere's my lawn. an this
ere is my caff,
An things hez reached the purtiest pass the
worl hez ever sawn
Eff an ole duff can't let his caff chaw grass on
hisown lawn.
Waal let 'em lafT; this ere young caff shall stay
here anyhow,
An If hear 'em laff too hard I'll trot out the
old cow.
I'll hitch 'em both to the same stake right here
in my front lawn
An let 'em stay an chaw the grass till the hull

Not unto every heart is Gods good gift
OF simple tenderness allowed. We meet
With love in many fashions when we lift
First to our lips life's waters bitter sweet.
Love comes upon us with resistless power
Ofcurbless passion and with headstrong will
1t plays around like April's breeze and shower,
Or calmly flows rapid stream, and still.
1t comes with blessedness unto the heart
That welcomes it Alright, or-bitter fate
1t wrings the bosom with SO fierce a smart
That love, We cry, is crueler than hate.
And then, ah. mel iwhen love has ceased to bless,
Our broken hearts cry out for tendernessl
We long for tenderness like that which hung
About us, lying on our mothers breast
A selfish feeling, that no pen or tongue
Can praise Alright, since silence sings its best
A love as far removed from passions heat
As from the chillness of its dying fire
love to lean on when the failing feet
Begin to totter and the eyes to tire.
In youths brief heyday hottest love we seek
The reddest rose we grasp, but when 1t dies,
God grant later blossoms, violets meek,
May spring for us beneath life's autumn skies!
God grant that some loving one be near to bless
Our weary way with simple tendernessl
All the Year Round.
