MARINE NOTES.

The American Consul at Hongkorg
has ordered the Golden Fleece to be sold
to satisfy debt OF the crew amounting
to 5000. The Fleece sailed two years
ago for the South Sea Islands.
The Nanshan failed to get away Tues
day. She cleared in the afternoon, but
postponed sailing until O'Clock this
morning. She got away today. Her
destination is Yokohama, which she
will doubtless reach about the same time
as the steamer China, which will leave
here on the 18th or 18th.
Captain Searles, who has for many
years been in the employ OF the Pacific
Mail Company, has been made Port
Captain at San Francisco. He will leave
the Picking and will have headquarters
on the Mail dock in that city. Captain
Ward will be promoted from the COM
mand OF the China to the command OF
the Picking. Captain Searles will be
transferred from the City Of Sydney to
the China. Captain Johnson. who was
in charge Of the Inflated New York, will
take charge Of the Sydney.

RACK FROM THE WRECK.


The Schooner Heeia Arrives with
Valuable Cargo.
The schooner Heeia returned Wed.
nesday afternoon from the wrecked
bark G.. N. Wilcox. She had been
away about three weeks. When the
vessel entered the harbor it was seen
that she was loaded down with freight.
She brought all the weight she could
well stand.
Her cargo consisted OF corrugated iron,
wheels for plantation cars, material for
fumes, round iron, a small amount OF
machinery all in good condition, and a
lot OF damaged sugar bags.
The work OF the wreckers was not un-
attended by hardships and danger. For
several days the swell was SO great
that nothing could be done, and
the schooner simply stood off.
When the seas became quiet and the
native divers were sent down. In a
little over two days they had good
load on the schooner and the return
trip was begun.
On the way back the Spray in COM
mand of Captain Cook of the John
Good, and John Bowler was sighted,
Mr.. Bowler takes diving suit up. The
| Heeia will return again as soon as she

the second year after planting, the
yield OF fiber can be safely
placed at five tons of can fiber
per acre. The plant viii then
continue to give crop every year for
en- years without replanting. Many
PERSONS are convinced of the merits of
this plant and are setting out all the
plants they can get. In Olaa the
planters are giving particular attention
to this plant.
Sansevieria is spoken of in all reports
as being the most valuable of all the
leaf fibers and one of the easiest to
clean by machinery. Samples of the
fiber grown in Honolulu have, through
the kindness of one of your principle
business houses, been sent to England
for an estimate of its value. A reply
stated that the fiber was of good quality
and worth from twenty-five to twenty.
five pounds sterling per ton, at that
time the fiber market was very low,
ssal hemp being quoted at fl6 per
ton.
There is no doubt that in few
years time fibers will begin to figure in
our exports, and it is to be hoped that
all persons owning suitable land will
turn their attention to this plant.
The plant is found growing in many
gardens in Honolulu where it has been
cultivated as an ornamental plant. The
| plant is propagated by peices of rhigomes
or underground stems and by sections
of the leaves three inches long. These
are planted close together, one.halt
their depth in sandy soil, and in eight
or nine weeks they will send out fine
roots from the lower ends and soon
after send up young leaves, they can
then be planted in a nursery ten inch IS
apart and when they are n foot high
they should be setsout in the field exc.
In two years the ground will
| be fully occupied and the leaves will be
three feet six inches or four feet high
and ready to cut for fiber When the
crop is cut the young leaves will at
once start up and in less than a year
again be ready to cut and the same
thing can go on for ten years and the
only expense viii be the cutting of the
leaf and cleaning the fiber.
The first two years are the most ex.
expensive as constant wedding is re-
quired in order to keep the ground
clean until the plants have entirely
filed up the land, when no furth,
wedding is required, the plants crowd
ing out every other species of vegeta
ton. Respectfully submitted,
D. MARSDEN.

Topic.
The Young Hawaiians Institute held
an interesting meeting at the Y. M. Z.
A, hall Wednesday evening, President
Henry Smith in the chair. Two dozen
members were present. The appllca-
tions of eight young Hawailans for
membership were received, considera-
ton of which was postponed until next

citing the Institute to several available
halls. The recommendation were
primarily discussed, but no action was
taken.
The committee appointed to arrange
an entertainment reported program
which will be given in future. The OBJ
iect of this entertainment will be to ac-
cumulate funds with which to supply
hall for the Institute. 1t is the intention
of the membership to build hall in a
wear or two, and a "nest egg" Tor tna'
purpose, it is hoped, will result from
this entertainment.
After the meeting adjourned several
officers of the organization visited the
halls recommended by the committee
for temporary occupancy. IL Is more
than probable that the Institute VII
arrange TO hold future meetings IL

A BICYCLIsT VICTORY.


st. Paul Judge.
ST. PAUL, Mimi, Oct. 27.-In a deci-
sion Just handed down the Supreme
Court gives bicycle riders all the rights
of the general thoroughfares granted to
other vehicles. The test was that of n.
A. Thompson, whose horse ran away at
the sight of "A bicycle ridden by w. NJ.
Dodge, the buggy OF Mr.. Thompson
being demolished and Mr.. Thompson in
iured. The latter brought the suit for
damages, alleging that the bicyclist had
no right in the road.
Judge Buck says in his decision
against Mr.. Thompson: bicycles are
vehicles used now extensively for con-
venience, rec cation, pleasure and BUSH
ness, and the riding of them upon the
public highway in the ordinary manner
as is now done is neither unlawful nor
prohibited. Because the plaintiff chooses
to drive horse hitched to carriage,
it does not give to him the right to die
tate to others their mode of conveyance
upon public highway where the rights
of each are equal"

MISS DALGLEIsH MARRIED.



Katherine b. Gray, better known to
Honolulu as Kate Dalgleish, the leading
lady of the Daley Company. was quietly
married to Thomas G. Miller, civil
engineer of San Francisco. The lady is
90 years of age and widow. Mr.. Miller
is an intelligent and attractive gentle
man few years older than the lady
whom he has made his wife. The cere-
mony was performed at O'Clock We'd
nesday afternoon by Rev. Alex. Mack
intosh. Mr.. and Mrs. Belmour of the
Daley Company were the only wit
nesses.
After the ceremony the party drove
to the residence of Professor and Mrs.
Bradley near Union square, where the
the bride had been living, .and there
gave tea and reception to few i'm
vited guests. The apartments were
beautifully decorated with flowers and
vines, and everything bore an air of
cheerfulness.
Miss Dalgleish, the bride, has made a
great many friends while here, most
of whom will be surprised to learn of
her marriage. She is beautiful woman,
bright, intelligent and pleasing.
Since she has been in Honolulu she has
led a somewhat retired life. This was
attributed to an alleged ill-feeling be-
tween members of the Daley Company,
but was most probably due to her APP
preaching marriage.
The bride and groom will remain here
until the end of the Daley engagement.
After that it is announced that Miss
Dalgleish will leave the stage for an in
definite period.
