THE MIoWERA.
Schemes For Getting Her Of.
The Agents Think She has
Not Moved.

On enquiry at the Office of Thee.
H. Davies Il Co. yesterday after
noon, Mr.. E. ". Holdsworth said
that the agents of the s. S. Miowera
have already received several ten
ders for floating the wrecked steam
er. While McRae's proposition is
considered a good one, yet it has
not been accepted.
McRse is looking for some one
to back his scheme financially, and
ne will report to the agents as soon
as be finds the person.
A Portuguese has also sent in an
explanation of scheme, but made
no tender.
A Chinsman has promised to put
in a bid BY next Wednesday.
One of the Lucas brothers is
thinking of making bid, but has
not done so as yet.
Another gentleman thinks he has
discovered the best scheme yet for
floating the Miowera, but he has
not succeeded in procuring one who
can back him with the necessary
funds.
The Miowera has not moved an
inch, so the agents say. There are
several people along the water front
who have their own private marks,
with which they can tell almost
to an inch whether the steamer has
moved or not, and these declare
the steamer has not materially
changed her position.

A NEW DEPARTURE.

The first quarterly circular of
the Hawaiian Safe Deposit and In
vestment Company was published
October ID. This circular is a new
departure in the islands, and a
very welcome one. 1t sets forth
the capital stock, par value and
number of shares issued of all
stock companies in the islands,
together with the dividends de-
clared from January to October,
1898, and also the amounts asked
and bid for the stock.
The circular also calls attention
to the advantages offered to in
vestors in the purchase of the
bonds issued on several of the
sugar estates of the islands. It
points out the fact of the safety of
investment in sugar stocks, and
says "those who are satisfied with
a seven per cent, net income cannot
find better or safer investment
for their money"
A glance at the circular, showing
the dividends paid on some of the
stocks, will make some of the
GROWERS about "hard times
change their opinion.

PARKERs FENCING CLASS.
The Police Receiving Daily In
struction With Wooden
Swords.

The cement-covered yard of the
police station presents quite war
like appearance every afternoon
now. A squad of policemen prac-
ticing fencing and staff exercises is
an unusual sight in any place, but
the government here evidently
want New York's "fnest" to take
q back seat in the matter of strong
and skillful men.
Captain Parker gives some of his
men this work every day, and
most of them are becoming quite
skillful in the use of the foils.
Wooden sticks are used, having
leather guards to protect the hands.
The exercise is beneficial to the
men in many ways, strengthening
their muscles, improving their
quickness Of sight, making them
more alert and active on their feet,
and often, in a free fight, giving
them q decided advantage when
the matter comes to the use of
clubs. 1t is much to be hoped that
all the members Of the ''foorce"
viii become expert in carte and
tierce.

"PUBLIC SPEAKING. ="
z. L. Stereuson's Opinion of
What it Does for
Mans Mind.

1t will be remembered that Robt.
Louis Stevenson, in his short talk
to the members of the Scottish
Thistle Club some time ago, said
that there was nothing that so
perverted the mind as to be a pub
lie speaker" This is but a para
phrase of a sentence from one of
his clever novels called "The
Wrong Box" where the author
says, speaking of one of his male
characters, A taste for general in
formation had begun to sap his
manhood. There is no passion
more facilitating to the mind, I'M
less, perhaps, it be that itch of
public speaking which it not infre-
quently accompanies or begets."

CANNOT COMPLY.
Robert Louis Stevenson Declines
to Lecture While in
Honoiulu.

For several weeks it has been
known that efforts were being made
to persuade Mr.. Robert Louis Ste
venson to deliver Il lecture on some
literary subject during his stay in
Honolulu. The matter was taken
in hand by the Scottish Thistle
club, and last night committee,
consisting of Messrs. Logan, CARVE
and Cockburn, waited on Mr.. Ste
venson at Sans Souci with the re-
quest that be favor the public with
q lecture.
Mr.. Stevenson met the commit
tee in his usual affable manner, and
after listening to their proposal ex-
pressed his regret that the state of
his health would not permit him
to speak again in public while here,
although the temptation was great
and hard to resist, In parting with
the committee Mr.. Stevenson an
nounced that he would return to
Samoa by the next through steam
er. He expressed himself as greatly
pleased with the personal reception
he had received since his arrival in
Honolulu and expressed the hope
that he would be able to return in
the near future and spend further
time with his friends here.

BASE BALL.

George Whitney, of South Royalton
fame, will have charge of a strong team at
Fitchburg.
Martin Sullivan, formerly with the Bos-
ton and Chicago teams, stabbed a bar tender
five times at Lowell Wednesday, but did
not infict serious injuries.
The athletic controversy at Yale over
the undergraduate rule has stirred up the
baseball men more than any similar rule in
years. II now seems certain that rival
team will he organized, with either Muir
ply or Beall as captain. The team is like
ly TO be made up about as follows: Kedzie.
Greenway and Graves, catchers: Bowers.
pitcher: O'Neill, first base: Norton, sec
ond base; Murphy short stop Kedzie or
Farrell, third base; Redding, Parsons.
Beall and Farrell for the outfeld. Such a
team would be as strong as the Yale team
of 1892.
The league officials suggest these rules
for the coming season: No enlargement
of the field now in use; removal of the
pitcher from his present position TO the
center of the infeld; abolish the pitchers
box and substitute therefor a boundary
plate, covering "A l2-inch space, to which
the pitcher will be confined; abolition of
the fiat bat; lucid definition of balk
ball; simplitication of the rules pertain
ing TO the actual playing of the game: the
coditying ofall rules applying to the duties,
powers and responsibilities of the umpires:
player who makes a sacrifice hit, which
advances base runner. shall not be charged

FLAGS FOR THE SCHOOL Rooms

9 10y feet in size, yesterday. He was ac-

f. Selleck. At the parochal school Rev
Father Cunningham introduced the veter-
ans and then called on each one for re-
marks. Next Monday evening Miss Saw
yers North street school will be presented
with a similar flag at Wells hall.
SedEwick post voted unanimously to
make these presentations through Com

mittee The committee communicated
with the school committee, expressing a
belief that 1--WE cannot begin too early to
lnculcate loyalty, and desire to have the
national ensign displayed in the school
rooms during its session. The suggestion
was made that the flags be presented on the
anniversary OF WashingtOns birth. Dr.
Holton, replying for the committee, said
that they believed that everything that
tended to the development OF patriotism.
loyalty and good citizenship should be done
while the child is receiving instruction
which is TO be the foundation of his char

Dr. HoltOn recommended that the presen-
tation be made yesterday, with such cere-
monies as in the judgment of the veterans
was best calculated to impress the patriotic
lessons which is the intent of the gift.
