John L. Thornycroft has a
good deal To do with engining
great steamships for merchant
and naval service. He is what
they call an idea man. just as
successful men in other lines /
keep their minds glued to their
particular business, So does
Mr.. Thornycroft. His latest
idea on shipping would para
I'VE the Kilohana Art League
and give great many other
people here the shivers if it
were suggested for use on land
or at sea in Hawaii. Mr..
Thornycroft says this thing of
trying to blend the color of a
hull into the color of the water
is a humbug and that work on
the scheme has never amount
ed to anything of benefit or
practical use. He declares that
much better results would be
obtained if the ships We're
painted in irregular patches of
color, as there would be much
greater difficulty in making
out their form at a distance.
Men who have had the expert
ence of trying to identify the
remains of an explosion victim
can appreciate the logic of this
paint idea-perhaps. Mr..
Thornycroft says that what
modern navies now need is "A
small high speed boat to des-
troy torpedo boats as well as
larger craft. Speculation as
to where the thing will end
and what the other fellows
will do is a very wide field.
On a trial of a torpedo des-
troyer lately nearly all the men
aboard were made seasick.
They say the movement of this
craft at speed will do that right
along for her crew ii the sea
is at all rough.
Evening riding parties, that
is horseback riding, make one
oft he most exhilarating of
pleasures. A bright moonlight,
cool breeze and good roads and
a well trained horse are what
90 to make these rides com
plete. Horses are not always
manageable, and when you
have your dearest by your side
and are attempting to do the
agreeable, it is not the incest
thing in the world to have her
horse shy and start off on a
run leaving you talking to the
air.
Now a bicycle goes as fast
as a horse, never SHES or frets
and if the lady rides fast so
can you. In the States bicycle
parties are becoming quite the
fad and ladies are greater
riders on the bicycle than on
horseback.
Bicycling is popular among
the ladies-can be proved by
the amount of talk for and
against the boomers. 1t is no
use for the man to talk against
boomers and bicycles, for if
women want them they will
have them and the more talk
against the bloomer costumes
the greater the demand and
the more popular they will be.
Quite a number of ladies III
Honolulu ride bicycles--we
have sold two this week-the
desire for this outdoor recrea-
ton is growing and to meet
the demand we have made a
large order for Monarch ladies'
wheels. We have two more
on hand as samples, the merits
of which we will explain to all
ladies who call on us. These
wheels are just the same quail
ty and style as our Nos. 9
and 10, only changed to suit
lady riders. We sell the No.
IL for $4,000 and No. 8 for
$4,000.

LAKE GOATS COLLIDE.
The Steamer Csyuga sInks-Ons of Her
Crew Lost.

Crew Lost.
MACKINAw CITY, Mich, May 1.-THE
steamship Cayuga of the Lehigh
Valley line, bound from Chicago
to Buffalo, collided with the steam
er Joseph l.. Hurd, of the Lake
Superior line, Lake Superior to
Chicago 3 miles this side of Skilla-
galee lighthouse, at 4:30 Friday morn
ing. The Cayuga sank twenty-five
minutes later. The bow of the Hurd
was knocked clean off, and only
her cargo of lumber kept her
afioat. The only loss of life was
on the Hurd. George Johnson, the
steward, was knocked overheard by
the crash and was drowned. The re-
manning members of both crsws were
picked up by the Minnesota liner Ma
nola and landed here Friday forenoon.
The Cayuga went down in IL
fathoms of water, about midway be-
tween Skillagalee and Waugoshance
lit ats. She had on board 1900 tons Jf
-four from Milwaukee, valued at $40. 600.
and 80, 900 bushels of oats valued at
es 500. IN addition there were mum
Der of minor items, which will bring
the total value of the cargo to about
500, 900.
The Hurd, which is an old-timer in
lake business, was commanded by
Capt. Charles Z. Wilson. This is the
first season she has been in commission
for several years, on account of dull
freights.
Among underwriters the loss of the
Cayuga. following so closely upon the
heavy list of marine casualties the past
two weeks, created the greatest con-
sternation. 1t is estimated that the
total insurance on boats and cargo is
about 100000. The flour of the Cay
uga is believed to be insured by the

MARINE Postal Service at Detroit.

WASHINGTON, May 13.-The postmas-
ter general has decided To establish a
marine postal service at Detroit, Mich,
for the free delivery and collection
of mail matter of the vessels
that pass up and down the Detroit
river without touching at Detroit.
The Importance of this commerce be-
comes apparent when it is stated that
more tonnage passes Detroit than any
other port in the y Drld. During
the season of navigation vessels
pass Detroit every seven minutes dur
ing the day of twenty-four hours. The
new service will be OF great advantage
to Chicago. Cleveland, Buffalo, Toledo
and other western cities.
