Deaths From Cholera at
Honolulu Reported.

The Hawaiian council of state held q
meeting September 1. and, after appropri-
ating $4,000 for expenses incurred by the
beard of health the matter of pardontns
political prisoners came up for considera-
ton. The executive recommended that
Carl Widemann, Cupid the four Lane
boys, Junius Kaao. Joe Widdlefield and
thirty-nne others be pardoned. The coun-
Gil adopted the recommendation.
At the same meeting the eX-queen was
hardened also, and the others will be lib

Spread of Cholera.
Forty-one cases of cholera We're reported
to September ), with thirty-five deaths.
The disease attacks only the natives. Ev-
cry effort was made to stamp it out. No
island steamers were allowed to leave port
without first remaining in quarantine for
five days. Passengers had to undergo the
same ordeal
Cholera, according to the general theory,
was brought to Honolulu by the steamer
Belgic which arrived on the 9th of August
with 536 Chinese immigrants on board
On the 3oth nine cases were reported, five
of which proved fatal One of the unfor-
Inmates was a seaman on the United States
steamer Bennington, named W. II. Goedel.
He was taken ill while on board the vessel
and lived but short time. He had bathed
in the harbor, and it is thought contracted
the disease in this manner. On the follow
ing two days four cases were reported. On
the third seven cases developed.

The Splendid Orchard Owned by Col. j. j.
Ross & Sou OF Seaforh.

Ross & Son OF SeatOrd.
Special Correspondence Of Gazette and Journalla
Seaford, Aug. q. Col. j. j. Ross
and son Of Seaford, who are prominently
known as among the largest and most
successful fruit growers on the PENN
sula, have a peach orchard that cannot
be surpassed for beauty and excellence.
Over 10000 trees are now in full bear
ing and all Of fine quality. The trees
are SO full that many are breaking
under their immense burden. Their
crop is larger than that of any three
growers in Sussex county. The favor
ties at this time are the Elberta and
Old Nixon, which arc now in their
prime.
These varieties, owing to their un-
usual size, fine coloring and delicious
favor have been sold TO II. S. Brewer
& Co., Hartford, Conn, the largest
handlers Of fruit in the New England
States, through Mr. r. M. Burdick
member of the firm.
Three hundred hands are daily en-
ployed in picking, asserting and pack
ing the fruit in Georgia carriers for the
market. The entire crop is estimated
at "a, COO baskets. The markets in the
cities have been good all the season
and their peaches have been selling
from 81. % to 81. rs per basket since the
first shipment.
At present prices this is little gold
mine to the farmers of this vicinity
who arc fortunate enough to have a
good crop.
