through Olaa and never saw pref
tier scenery. The coffee looks
splendid. l was sorry to see that

They have their own sugar mill
and have all the work they want.
They have also a frstrate brass
band.
Mr.. Goodale, the manager Of
Papaikou plantation, has just
completed and put in operation a
cable railroad for shipping the
sugar. 1t is three hundred and
odd feet long and carries three
tons in a load. The cost was
more than $4,000, but it will save
a dollar a ton in handling sugar.

spare time to coffee whenever the
Government opens up the lands"
Mr.. Rawlins in the course of
further conversation said he did
not see any sense in jealousy of
Hilo by Honolulu, still less in the
jealousy of other parts of the isl
and of Hawaii against its princi-
pal town. With the development
of the country the port of Homo
lulu would have all the business
it could handle without that Of
Hilo, and, with the railway
that is bound to come
from Hilo to Hamakua, the whole
island would share in the pros
perity of Hilo as an important
harbor having large direct traffic
withthe outside world.

adjoining the New York office of her man.
ager, Mr. Charles Burnhan, is room de-
voted exclusively to her uses. 1t is her busi-
ness office and reception room combined,
and il is sal d to be a charming little nook.
The walls are covered with sage-green
cartridge paper, and the floor with rug
in which dull-red tone predominates, har-
moniZinG in color with screen decorated
with golden fleur-de-lis. The most impor-
tant piece of furniture is a beautiful old
mahogany desk, with brass trimmings,
which was picked up by Miss Cayvan in
Massachusetts while she was there on
vacation during the summer.
An old-faShioned settle, with a broad
seated old chair to match. as well as the
chair that Miss Cayvan uses at her desk,
are a dark, rich green. In one corner is
big. misunderstanding lounge. upon which
are half dozen silken cushions in half q
dozen colors. This is Miss Cayvan's IA
vorite resting place when in New York,

Scattered about the walls in profusion
are dainty pictures of many sorts. notable
among these bel some by native artists
of renown. which Miss Cayvan secured
during her trip to Japan some time ago
Another bit of bright decoration, of which
Miss Cayvan is very fond. is an American
shield surrounded by the flags of the diff

of each member OF the company. and many
interesting souvenirs given Miss Cayvan
