WHARF AND WAVE.

| 10 reNOVSr the lOSt TuuQer ana TuQ-
der-post of the S. S. Miowera. The
rudder and the post were lying near
the stern of the steamer where they
fell off some three weeks ago. Ka-
luhikai dove and tied ropes around
! them and the steamers winches
hoiSted them on board.
The American yacht Tolna, Cap
! tain Countess Festeties, arrived
Wednesday from San Francisco, fif-
teen days out. She was moored in
the stream, off the o. r. & L. Co.'s
wharf. She is fine looking FORE
and-aft schooner of rs tons regis
ter. Her owners claim her to be
very fast sailer. After remaining
at this port for several weeks, the
Tolna will contiue her cruise to
Tahiti, and perhaps Australia and
Japan. The count and countess
expect to reach their home in Aus
tria in 1895. The Tolns arrived
off Hilo, Hawaii, last Saturday
night, and as soon as the captain
sighted the lights on shore he kept
his yacht outside. There was a
heavy fog over the land at the time
and the mountain peaks were
dimly seen from where they were.
The yacht kept on until next day
found her off the east side of Maui.
Heavy weather set in, the sea
rushing madly over and around
the schooner. Almost everything
movable on deck was washed
overheard. A small boat securely
fastened in front of the foremost
was one of the valuables carried
away by the sea. The count then
turned the vessel back and came
around on the leeward side of the
island, passing between Maui and
Kahoolawe. Last Tuesday, the
Tolna made Koolau. She then
sailed along that coast and came
to Honolulu by way of Waialua
and Waianae. The count said
that his chronometer was a little
out. He will have that instru-
ment corrected here before leaving.
The residents of Hama, Maui,
were much surprised on the morn
ing of the 18th inst, when the
steamer Claudine entered that har-
Dor flying the American flag on the
foremost, while bunting was dis
played from the mainmast. 1t
transpired that Mr.. Gjerdrum, the
new manager of the Hama planta-
ton, was on board the steamer.
