Infected Spfce Plants.

A consignment of spice plants
was recently brought to San Fran
cisco by the steamship Peru, and
according to the Chronicle, they
were badly infected with scale.
The plants were shipped in a green
house, specially made for the pur-
pose and have had a roundabout
trip. They were first shipped from
the East Indies, to Hongkong, and
then to San Francisco. They will
be transferred to the Oceanic dock
and shipped by steamer Australia
to Honolulu.

The steamship Australia, Cap
tain Houdlette, arrived from San
Francisco yesterday afternoon
with sixty-two cabin, twenty steer
age passengers and twenty bags of
mail. She left San Francisco on
August 9th. Purser McCombe re-
ports a pleasant voyage through
out.
The vessel was sighted about
80 o'clock but she did not reach
port until about 5. She kept off
and on outside while DR.. Day was
explaining the situation to Captain
Houdlette. Finally the captain
decided to come inside. Her pas
sengers were landed with the ex-
ception of about fourteen tourists,
who remained on board. They
will be transferred to the w. G.
Hall this morning and will leave
during the day for the volcano.
The Australia will remain in
strict quarantine during her stay
in port; no one will be allowed on
shore, not even Captain Houdlette.
She will depart on Thursday after
noon and will only take cabin pas
sengers and Hawaiian mails. The
Oceanic dock will be closed to the
public for the present.
Among the passengers for Homo
lulu were: Miss Mary G. Alexan-
der, daughter of Professor w. D
Alexander; G.. G.. Broome,
wealthy New Yorker, who comes
armed with Introductory letters
from Frank Hastings; Rev. s. Fl.
Davis, of Kona; Rev. o p. Elmer
