HERE'S A WARMER.
A Journalist Tells What II
Knows About Papaias

A Journalist Tells What He
Knows About Papaias
Leigh H, Ervine. writer of Told In
Whispers" and a journalist wen
known here, has contributed an ar
ticle to a Florida paper on the Ha-
waiian papaia. For fairy yarn it is
considered a good one. He tells the
people of the Land of Flowers that the
papaia is just the fruit they have been
looking for: that the tree. with leaves
three feet in circumference. is valua-
BILE for its shade; that it is good for
"soughing" purposes; and that the
fruit is as large as melon and equally
palatable. That tough meats hung up
in the tree will become tender and
sweet; and that Hawaiians use tree and
fruit for many purposes.
Accompanied by Col. V. V. Ash
ford, commanded of the Queens Drag
cons" the writer. on warm after
noon, visited papaia grove at Waikf-
XII. After resting themselves in the
shade of the magnificent spreading
papaias, the gentlemen plucked and en-
joyed the excellent fruit at their leis-
ure Mr.. Irvine commends the papai
to Floridians, and, of course, the latter
will go into the business of cultivating
it on large scale. Liveoaks are dis
counted in the story of the Hawaiian
product as a shade producer, and the
potato trees of Arkansas could not be
more profitable.

AFTER MANY DAYS.

Arrival of Bark Callao from New
castle. n. S. w.
Captain Roster of the bark Callao,
which arrived last night from New
castle, reports continuation OF mis-
haps and bad luck since he was char
tered to load coal at the Southern port
for Honolulu. He reached Newcastle
last spring in the midst of the big
strike, and was thereby detained three
months from loading. When, finally,
his cargo was nicely topped off, his
sails bent, and all was ready for sea,
another coal vessel ran into the Callao
and came near sending her to the bot
tom.
1t took six weeks to repair her, and
nearly two months OF valuable time, as
well as considerable money was lost.
On the 18th OF November, three months
ago yesterday, she sailed. At first
Gains and then strong head winds were
encountered, and quite often the YES
sci proceeded but a few miles a day.
After long, dreary voyage of 80 days,
across the equator, the craft was final
ly blown past her destination, and had
to come back. Fortunately, all on
board enjoyed good health.
Captain Roster is German who has
devoted much of his life to the sea.
He is accompanied to this port by his
wife and daughter, the latter young
lady of Is. The Callao carries stores to
last her crew year. and was in that
way well equipped.
The captain was astonished at the
story of Butler, his murders and the

storm encountered by that vessel off
Bermuda and damage to her. The Star
buck was on her way TO Honolulu, via
Sydney. After the hurricane she put
into Bermuda in a badly battered con-
dition. Two men were seriously in
jured. From there she was being towed
back to New York.

The Kings Portrait.

A pretty trait Is recorded of King George
of Greece. At home as on his travels be
likes to wander abroad incognito, without
attendance, and so unprctentiously dressed
that he escapes recognition. At one time
he was taking one of his long solitary
walks when his attention was attracted by
a couple coming along the road hand In
hand, evidently a young workman and his
sweetheart. Under prctext of asking his
way, he entered into conversation with
them, and was told that they were engaged
and hoped by Christmas to have earned
enough to get married. Before parting
from them he took down their names and
addresses, and jokingly told the girl that
he might perhaps find rcmuncrative work
for them, but that anyway he would send
them his portrait as reminder Of this
meeting. On her wedding day the bride
received heavy necklace composed Of gold
coins, on which sho recognized the face OF
the man who had asked his way of her. II
was the promised portrait Of the king
