LIFE ON COCOANUT ISLE.
PURSUITS OF PLEAsUREAND PIETY
IN QUARANrINE.
Hardship to Some Pnssengers-Hilo
Gets the BENEFIT Of some visiting
Talent.

we're set to work to erect suitable
buildings and large tent for the
passengers. In two days they
were ready for occupancy, and all
were made as comfortable as pos
sible. During their stay there
was very little complaining. They
occupied their time in reading,
writing, swimming, etc. The first
evening of their arrival on the
island they arranged camp. On
Sunday morning and evening |
there was preaching by several
clergymen Of the number. On
Monday evening a lecture on
Corea. Tuesday evening an il
Illustrated lecture on Africa. Wed.
nesday evening, prayer meeting.
Thursday evening, readings, reci-
tations and singing. Friday even
ing, lecture on India. On this
evening they were serenaded by
the Hilo brass band on the oppo-
site shore, and they responded by
singing we'll known selections.
They all had good food we'll
cooked by a fine caterer lately
come to Hilo. Some of the sus-
poets helped the steward by wash
ing clothes. The charges are
hard for many, school teachers
and others, to pay. Some had to
borrow to pay the Government
for their stay. They all speak
of the tremendous ordeal they
had to pass through at quarantine
in Honolulu, and all thought
they should have been allowed to
land at Hilo. Did not feel that
, they would endanger the life of a
single person. Quite a number
of the passengers have families
here, and, as they had such a
: clean bill Of health, felt that
} Hiloites were unreasonable. The
passengers, y in all. came ashore
. on Friday, Goth inst. They and
their baggage were again fumi-
gated, and then were brought to
: Hilo, when they met with a
kind reception, in various fami-
:, lies, which they all were thankful
for. But they will ever remember
the engine that was brought
down to the dock, to throw water
q on them in case they made the
3 attempt to 60 ashore. Hope the
: germs were all killed dead. But
r Honolulu doctors please don't
D send any more passengers OF
$ germs here unless you send a
barrel of morphine also, and a
lot of inspectors to soothe the
t excited people. All your clean
, bills of health are of no avail
here, as you have learned.
Sheriff Andrews Of Maui has
been the guest of w w Goodale
since he came ashore.
