July and camped the first night At Luling.
The next day At noon We reached Prairie
Lea, where we spent the afternoon and
night, and from there we went to the beau
tiful town Of San Marcos, where we saw
many pretty scenes. We visited the FISH
hatchery and saw fish OF all sizes SWIM
ming through the clear waters which was
supplied by an arteslan we'll. The park was
covered with beautiful green grass and In
the center stood the flag pole bearing the
United States nag, which was hoisted every
morning and taken down at night. The
men were shipping the fish to different
parts OF the State. From San Marcos we
vent to point on the Guadalupe. about
twenty-five miles. We travelled through
mountains covered with cedars and large
rocks. The river was beautiful and we
could cross 1t by stepping from one stone
20 another. We were thirteen miles from
New Braunfels, where we made our last
camping place. 1t was quite cool and pleas
ant SO different from our own climate. We
caught fish at every place we camped and
enjoyed our trip very much. For fear my
letter will be too long. will close by say

CABINET SESSION.
Hilo Wharf Project Discussed
Yesterday.


At the Cabinet meeting, held yester-
day morning, the principal subject I'M
der discussion was the wharf at Hilo.
The work of constructing a temporary
affair will begin shortly. 1t will be To-
Gated at the mouth of the Waiakea
River, about mile from the town.
There has been much trouble among
the Hiloites about selecting a site for
the much-needed wharf, majority of
the citizens preferring to have it in the
same locality as the present landing,
as all the business of Hilo is trans
acted in that neighborhood At Waia-
kea it will be bonanza for the hack
men, unless the Hilo folk get a pedal
on" and construct tram line. Though
the new wharf is only a temporary af-
fair, it is step in the direction sought
by the people.
Located at Waiakea, the tendency
will be to increase the value of real
estate in that locality, and, perhaps,
add to the population of Waiakea.
