AUSTRALIAN MINERS ON THE r.
NJ. s. MIOWERA.
4 Party of Thirty Experienced Men,
Accustomed to Hardship, Pass
Through the City En- Route.

Thirty experienced miners passed
through this city on the II. NJ. ). Mi
owera yesterday on their way to the
Klondike. They are all from West
Australian fields, and are thoroughly
equipped for the perilous trip lhey
have undertaken. Although well sup
piled with money the "dlggers,' as
they are known in Australia, are all
travelling in the steerage.
The Klondike gold finds have excit-
ed quite as much attention in Austria
liza as in the United States. Down
there they are accustomed to hear
ing of big strikes, and most of the
men in the Miowera party are miners
who have participated in most of the
big strikes of recent years, but moth
ing in the recollection of these men
has equalled the finds in far off Alas
ka. They are not the sort of men to
make such a long voyage on a mere
rumor. They have letters from friends
in the frozen north confirming the
stories of rich finds, and they have
given up everything to cast their for
tunes with those who have gone be-
fore.
There are no very young men in
the party and not one who has not
had actual experience in the mines.
Most of them are grey bearded men,
accustomed to toll and hardship. Prob
ably among the entire thirty, "A hand
some little fortune could be gathered
together. In speaking of their plans
one of the miners said:
''We shall probably outfit at Victo-
ria, and go northward as far as is
practicable, and there wait for the
Spring. 1t is not our intention to go
into Klondiie this winter, as we have
been informed that it would be imp
practicable. We are not afraid of the
hardships of the country, for we have
all had experience in West Australia
where some of the worst country in
the world must be travelled. Our par
ty will stick together, and we calcu-
late to get started into. the interior
about as early as anybody in the
Spring.
eyes, we are going long way from
home, but if there is any truth in the
reports sent out, we calculate to make
it pay us. If there is any gold to be
dug up there. we calculate to get our
full share of it,"

roLtttcAL PRAYERS.
The case of R,sbop wits aud the
President of the uswaiian
ne pubttc

President of the Hawaiian
Repub'ic.
From the Boston Herald
To the Editor of The Herald -
The article in your paper Of June
"a headed "Bishop Willis and
Hawaii" suggests to me some
thing I might say Of that Angli-
can prelate now in England.
Last October I went with the
Hon. William o. Smith, attorney
general Of the republic OF Hawaii,
on an excursion to the island OF
Hawaii, where he was called on
official and government business.
We tarried at Kohala. Among
those living there was a young
curate of the Church of England.
On Sunday l thought it would be in
good taste for me to attend service
at the small church of the town,
and 80 we all went there together.
To my establishment, when,
during the service, prayers were
offered for her gracious majesty,
Queen Victoria, and also for the
President of the United States, l
found there was no allusion made
to the President of the republic of
Hawaii, where we we're, and
whose bospitslities and good gov
eminent we we're enjoying.
l supposed, of course, this was
a mere accident, mistake, but l
found later that this remarkable
Bishop Willis of the Church of
England had given instructions
all over the islands comprising
the republic of Hawaii, that no
prayers should be offered for the
head of the nation of which he
was resident.
l am glad he has gone to his
native England, and hope he will
remain there, and when, in a short
time, the Hawaiian islands shall
be an integral part of our country,
l trust he will not be allowed to
land, should he 80 desire, on a ter
ritory to whose government he
has shown such breach of de
cency and international polite
ness. NATHAN APPLETON.
