FROM THE CORONET.
Yacht Abandoned and Japanese
Steamer Taken in Her Place.

In letter from a member of the
yacht COrOnet party received by the
japanese steamer Miike-Maru Wednes-
day, the following information was re-
ceived relating to the trip of that vessel
along the coast of Japan:
"On July 18th the Coronet started from
Yokohama, drifted around for five days
with only a little breeze and head
winds Captain Crosby broke down
physically and we gave up the plan to
take the Coronet through the Island
Sea. We chartered in her place little
Japanese steamer, 155 feet long with
speed of u knots. This made us safe
against currents that would have been
dangerous in the yacht.
After we had all seen enough of
ed from there on our steamer on July
goth
AT Beppu, a little village on one of
the islands where foreigners had never
been before, our sailors took advantage
of us and came back to the ship fight
ing drunk. This was also true of some
of the officers.
Arthur Curtiss, James and the rest
of the female members of the Coronet
party were forced to load up revolvers
and run the boat, keeping watch all
night on the bridge and in the engine
room, for fear that something might
go wrong"

CAPSIZED BOAT.
Believe to Have Belonged to one
of the Vessels in Port.

At about Z o'clock last night lady
and a gentleman in row boat pulled
in alongside the Pacific mail wharf and
gave in the information that while they
were out in the channel they caught
sight of a capsized boat being beaten
about in the breakers at point on the
line with the pilots Office and the light
house.
A TELEPHONE message was sent to the
Port Surveyors office where Inspector
w. w. Needham was on duty. After
informing Harry Evans of the harbor
police, Mr.. Needham got into one of the
Custom House boats and, together with
one of the guards, pulled out toward
the point indicated.
They could not get very close, but
they could see very we'll that there was
a. boat in the breakers and that it was
capsized No one else went out, the
supposition being that the boat had got
loose from one of the vessels in port
and drifted out into the breakers.

CHINESE LUCY.
Conference With Authorities Yes.
terday-Held Under Amusement,


Minister of Foreign Affairs Cooper.
Att'y-General Smith and Commercial
Agent George Kim held a conference in
the Attorney Generals office yesterday
afternoon relative to the deportation of
the Chinese girl now held at the station
house.
There were present, besides the Of
ficials mentioned, the representatives
of the Chinese Six Companies and the
girl, Lucy.
Guarantees were offered by the Six
Companies agent that the girl would be
carefully looked after and handed over
TO the Mission directly she arrived in
San Francisco, and she could remain
there as long as she desired. He gave
every assurance TO the Ministers that
no harm could be fall the young woman.
These assurances We're endorsed by Goo
Kim, who suggested to the Attorney
General that if there was any doubt in
the minds of the Government officials
as to the treatment she would receive.
they might send member of the police
force to San Francisco with the girl
and see that she was safely handed over
to the mission.
Lucy paid close attention to the re-
marks of the Chinese representatives,
and when asked as to her wishes re-
marked that lit was all right to talk
that way in Honolulu, but that she
knew the Cinnamon better than to be-
lieve it."
The case has aroused a great deal of
feeling here among all classes of Chi
nese. The members of the United Chi
nese Societies here insist that she go
back to her husband in compliance with
the Chinese law. The case is held I'M
der advisement.

The three doctors stood wiping
their cleaning instruments, taking in
half whispers of the operation. A
white-capped nurse was unpinning the
sheets and padding from the operat'
ing table.
At the side OF the bed where Mary
lay another doctor aud another white
capped nurse stood watching for the
first sign of her returning conscious
ness. She lay heavily and with muscles
relaxed, with closed eyes, breathing
laboriously. and white as the linen on
the bed.
David pushed open the door with
unsteady hand and came across the
room to the bed. Without II word he
dropped on his knees in a grhsf-
stricken heap Mt the bedside.
DIR. Ellis put his hand on his shoul-
der, and he looked up, with anguish
laden eyes, that pitifully pied for a
word of hope.
"She will do well," said the doctor,
in a CHEEKY whisper. "The operation
was a success far beyond our expecta-
tions. But it is important for her to
come out of the ether quietly. Don't
you think, Mr.. Winslow, it would he
good plan for you to stand here nt
the foot of the bed where she can see
you when she first opens her eyes ?
Then she will forget entirely all the
pain of her separation from you, and
everything will be quite nice and COM
Portable"
David rose, dumbly obedient, and
stood where the doctor directed, de-
vouring with his eyes the pale, beau
tiful face lying amid the thick brown
braids.
"Now, Mrs. Winslow, il the pillow
right?" asked DIR. Ellis, trying to
rouse her. won't you let me try to
raise you mp little?"
1t seemed hours to David before
Mary, with deep sigh. lifted ber
heavy white lids. A moment her half
conscious eyes rested on the doctor
who 'Tas speaking to her, and then
she Itoked at David. She tried to
make the nerveless lips move-failed
once and then slowly, painfully, she
.:a;a.
Darling, love you"
"She's all right now," said DR..
Ellis. in a tone of relief.
In few moments all the doctors
had gone, leaving David and u nurse
to watch Mary.
"She's doing splendidly now, SIR"
said the nurse, moved by the trouble
in David's face to speak TO him.
"There's not bit more danger"
But David did not believe that. The
shadow OF the terrible possibility of
his wife's dying had fallen across his
heart and it would take more than
words to lift it.
