Although this is the first appearance of
Brodie's play it is not the first appearance
of Mr.. Brodie in San Francisco. He was
here IN 1879, when he entered WALKING
contest against q horse in the Mechanics
Pavilion. The horse got the best of it.
That was before Brodie had jumped into
fame. He is full of wonder at the growth
OF the City and the improvements that

She Is Expected to Be One of
the Fastest Crafts Sent
From Here.
WILL MAKE THIRTEEN KNOTS.
President Godfrey and Chief Engineer
Keech Are Here to Receive
Her.

The hull Of another steamer for the Ha-
waiian Inter-Island Steam Navigation
Company arrived from Port Blakeley last
Wednesday. When completed she will
run between Honolulu and the volcano on
the island OF Hawaii, and should the ex-
pectatfons of her builder be realized her
speed will exceed thirteen knots.
The new steamer is schooner-rigged and
is named James Spiers, after the we'll
known member Of the firm of Hinckley,
Spiers & Hayes 1.-THE Fulton Iron Works.,
which is now completing the vessels ma
chineEy. The name is only temporary
one, however, and was given because she
was built in America, few the American
flag, and had TO be named before she could
make voyage. Once she arrives at
Honolulu the name will be changed,
and, like all the inter-island boats, she
will probably receive Kanaka name.
The James Spiers, as she lies off the
China basin, presents a very pretty model.
She carries very little sail, but, neverthe-
less, she was able to more than hold her
own with the schooner Oceania Vance in
the run from the Sound. She is 195 feet
over all, 81 feet beam and Is feet deep. She
will be fitted out at the Fulton Iron
Works, and when completed will be q
credit to San Francisco workmanship.
There will be accommodations for seventy
five cabin passengers, and the quarters will
be on the upper deck The cabins will be
finished in white enamel. and the cabin
furnishings will be luxurious.
Captain McAllip, who brought the
Spiers from Puget Sound, says she Is one
OF the smartest vessels he ever sailed in.
He is confident that under steam she will
beat thirteen knots.
Captain Godfrey, the president, and II.
Keech, the engineer, of the Inter-Island
Steam Navigation Company, are both IN
San Francisco and will take the James
Spiers to Honolulu. This makes the
eighth vessel that Hall Bros. have built
for the island company, and another is
now on the ways. The last one sent to
the islands was the Ke Auhou, which has
proved to be splendid sea boat and fast
one.
When the Spiers is completed, under the
personal supervision of Messrs. God frey
and Keech, she will have her trial trip,
and if successful she will at once start for
the Paradise of the Pacific with party of
Hawailans.
The only other member of her crew that
has as yet been engaged is Captain Dun
can, late of the missionary schooner Morn
ing Star. He will 60 to the islands on
her as first mate.
Captain Hall of Hall Bros is quite proud
OF the new vessel, and he should be, as
she Is as pretty q model as has passed
through the Golden Gate in many a day.

The Meaning OF Free Coinage.
f. A. MITCHELL,
Secretary.

BY free coinage it is meant that
Observation-Disclosures and corpor-
ations, natives and foreigners
may send bullion to the United
States mints aud have it coined
into dollars, free of charge, except
the cost of the alloy employed.
The dollars thus returned to the
owners of the bullion would each
be a legal tender for tie payment
of 100 cents of ndebtedness. The
word unlimited" as used In this
connection, means that there
should be no restriction as to the
amount of bullion thus received
for colnage-all the silver in the
world, il you please. "Independ-
ent" coinage means that this coun-
try alone, without the help of any
foreign nation, shall undertake
this unlimited coinage scheme,
and, of course, the coins could cir
culate only in the United States.
This Is the free, Independent and
unlimited coinage of silver" FL
nally, the ratio at which this coin
age would be conducted-"sixteen
to one"-means that each sixteen
pounds of silver would be coined
into as much legal tender money
as each pound Of gold.-New YORK

services to the confederate government.
He held several positions under the confed-
crate government. He was second in com
mand of the Morgan at the defense of Mo-
bile, and was employed for a short time
as an instructor of the infant naval school.
and was finally selected as second officer of
the Rappahannock, then being built at Ca
lais, France and was compelled to run the
blockade to get to his appointment. The
vessel on which he took passage was pur-
sued by a federal cruiser and sunk off the
Island of Eleuthera, and the passengers
and crew narrowly escape with their lives
by swimming ashore.
The federal commander demanded their
surrender, but Col. Graves being well
versed in international laws claimed that
they were inside the marine league when
fired upon, and that they were entitled to
British protection, and raised such a storm
about the ears of the federal commander
that he allowed them to proceed to Eng
land, whence Col. Graves found his way
to Calais.
But Louis Napoleon was too cautious to
allow the Rappahannock to leave her
mornings under the auspices of the French
government and, after eighteen months
spent in fruitless negotiations, Col. Graves
made his way back to Richmond, where he
was appointed to select site for the pro-
posed confederate naval school, But the
war was drawing to a close, and his last
service was to act as an escort to jefferson
Davis and his cabinet as far as Abbeville,
S. c., where his career as a confederate
ended.
For several years he remained in Rome,
but in 1873 he accepted an offer from the
khedive Ismail Pasha of a colonelcy in the
Egyptian army, and sailed for the land
of the Nile For three years he signed
all his correspondence as Graves Bey,"
in Arabic. He was placed in command
of a regiment to subdue the rebellion
tribes of Somali, and marched across the
desert and entered the Soudan. He had
many sharp encounters with those fierce
tribes, and he brought home a choice col
lection of spears and deadly assegals,
with shield of rhinoceros hide that will
turn bullet of large character at short
range. During his service there he was
appointed to select a site for a light
house on the shore of the Red sea, and
spent many months in the desert by the
margin Of that historic sea. For his SER
