NEW FLAGSHIP COMING.
Baltimore Ordered to China-Releved
by the Olympic.

Capt. Dyer of the L. S. S. Baltimore
received orders by the S. S. Rio de Ja-
neiro to put his ship in readiness to
sail for the China station about April
3rd. Prior to that time the Balti-
more will be relieved by the L. s.
cruiser Olympia, now in China waters,
to which vessel Admiral Miller will
transfer his flag. The Olympia is to
be sent from the China station about
March 18th, arriving here on the 2Tth
proX. She has been in China waters
about three years, and will only be
kept here until another vessel can he
sent out to relieve her. and allow her
to go to Mare Island to dry dock.
''It is certain that the next week or
two will see a general shake up of of
ficers on the Baltimore and Benning-
ton" said an officer who was ashore
this morning. "There will be some
/ transfers from the Bennington to the
Baltimore, for the reason that those
officers having a long time to serve on
their cruise will be sent to the China
waters, while the short time men will
be kept on this side"
The Olympia is one of tn finest crui.
sers in the American navy. She i:
much larger than the Baltimore. be-
ing above 5000 tons. The Olympia
visited this port on her way to China
about three years ago. but was oblig,
ed TO anchor outside because of the
cholera then raging.

SEALING SCHOONER PUTS INTO
WAIMEA.
Brings Down Eighty Skins and Seems
Very Much atisfied-What Else
Might be on Board?

The two topmast schooner Direc-
tor 10 days from Victoria, b. c., put
into Waimea. Kauai. last Tuesday,
"for water" and sailed the same day.
The captain and crew of the Director
were in high spirits, according to the
report brought down by Purser Piltz
of the steamer Kauai as they had
made a fine run down from Victoria,
and had captured eighty skins on the
way. Including hunters. boat pullers
and crew. the schooner carried about
thirty men. She was bound for the
Japan coast. and in hurry.
OF course there were people who
whispered about that the Director had
done uncommonly well to secure eigh-
ty skins so quickly, and even limited
that the skins looked rather too well
seasoned. The Island people were all
agog anyway over the Marshafs mys-
terious visit. and the appearance of a
schooner, was not unexpected. How
ever. so far as is known, the Director
was bona fide sealer. and so far as
is known did not land any cargo on
the Island.

TERRIBLE EXPERIENCE DURING
THE STORM.
George McDougall, the Owner, Braved
the Storm, and Saved Her-Schoon-
er Arrives in Port.

The little schooner Norma, which
arrived yesterday from the Kona coast
had a very narrow escape from being
wrecked off Kailua, during the recent
storm. She was thrown on the rocks
once, but washed off again, and escap-
ed with but a small hole in her side.
She was deserted by her crew once,
got adrift and was finally rescued by
her owner, George McDougall, at a
great personal risk.
The full force of the storm was felt
at Kailua, enormous waves going over
the rocks and landing. The schooner
Moi Waihine managed to get out tC
sea, but the Norma was caught. At
ter she had been on the rocks. the cap
tain, native, managed to get an an
chor down. AS the storm increased in
fury, he became frightened, and with
his crew swan ashore. In the mean
time the Norma had got adrift once
more. and when Mr.. McDougall arriv-
ed on the beach, was threatened with
instant destruction. With rare bra
very Mr.. McDougall swan out to the
vessel, accompanied by the captain,
and some other natives, and by get
ting a kedge down succeeded in res
cuing the vessel, and standing out to
sea.

A DECIDED IMPROVEMENT.

At no very great expense Hopp G.

which are worth many times their
cost. A small addition to their store
on the Waikiki side has enabled them
to move the stairs, and the change al
most doubles the room for displaying
their large stock of furniture. A much
better light has been obtained and one
would hardly recognize the old stand

ling furniture at the same low prices
as heretofore. Tn this case the con-
sumer will not have to pay the tax.

must have q drawing and music ROOM
The studious must have a library. The
men must have q suoking-rOOm. Ev-
erybody must have u bedi and all
must have room for exercise IN the
open air, when inclined for It. Similar,
but less elaborate, conveniences must
be provided for those who wish to
travel in the same ship, but who are
unable or unwilling to pay the highest
fare. In many cases a third class Of
accommodation is given for emigrants
and those to whom cost is q matter OF
the first moment. According to their
several ranks, all these passengers
must be waited upon. so that a large
body Of stewards and servants must
be carried in addition to the crews OF
navigators and engineers.
With this large number Of people to
be fed, cooking arrangements Of the
most elaborate and complete kind must
be made. Provisions must be stored
in such a manner as TO remain fresh
and good throughout the voyage, and
for this purpose steam refrigerating
machinery and cold storage chambers
are usually provided at the expense Of
some of tho cargo space. A practic-
ally unlimited supply Of fresh wateE
must be allowed to everybody on
board, and yet the arrangement for It's
supply must be such that everything
like waste shall be prevented.
The passenger is by nature a grum-
bier, and being shut UP, for days TO

IS no escape, with little occupation but
