Babcock can navigate wheel as
well on land as he can his big

The skipper of the bark Snow
and Burgess sailed close enough
to this port yesterday to shout to
the pilot boat that he was ID days
from San Francisco, bound for
Vladivostock, and all was well.
The steamer Waialeale arrived
at IL 80 this forenoon from XII
lauea. A damaged boat, from
which Captain Parker and Purser
Crane got dumped into the briny
a couple of trips ago, was brought
on deck. Captain Parker did not
take swim this trip.

In sugar last night. She has a

Purser Green having left just
before she sailed from here last
Monday. Nothing of special in
terest occurred during the round
trip.
The s s Kauai came in from
the Garden Isle this morning
without the usual swag of sweet
stuff. A big pump at Makaweli
broke down, so the steamer was
sent down as soon as possible
with the broken machinery, to
have it doctored at the Honolulu
Iron Works. The Kauai goes out
at 4 today with cargo of coal for
MAXWELL plantation.
''Sea-Lswyer."
The police were called on this
morning to take an unruly sailor
in charge, who was trying to run
things aboard the ship w f Bah
cock to suit himself. A day or
two ago, the same fellow quarrel
ed with the mate, using much pro-
fame and obscene language.
Striking a pugilistic attitude, he
said, "Come on, if you're a manp
AT the time, the captains wife and
a couple of her lady friends were
in the cabin. Hearing the noise
on deck, Captain Graham went
out and ordered the sailor to stop
his bad language and get to work,
and asked the mate to avoid quar-.
reling il possible. This morning,
the same seaman started in to
make more trouble. A boy of the
ship was asked by the cook or one
of the mates to pass some wood,
but was told by the troublesome
tar to leave it alone. The boy
picked up some wood to obey
orders, when he received blow
on the cheek from the sailor
which knocked him down. The
mate then interfered, but seeing
that the man was bent on raising
a row, he went to the skipper to
find out what he should do. Cap
tain Graham considered it best to
give the fellow in charge of the
authorities, so two or three police
officers were sent for, who soon
landed "Mr. Jack Fight" in the
city cooler.
The captain says this man has
been making a disturbance ever
since the vessel reached this port,
and is what mariners call "sea-
lawyer" With the exception of
the one man, the Babcock has o
very good crew this trip.
The Diamond Head.
A reporter was invited aboard
the bark Diamond Head yester-
day. She is greatly changed from
when she was known as the Gains
borough. When here last year,
her cabin was dirty and uncom-
