HAWAIIAN COINAGE.
That Proposed Now Win be the Is
lands Third.

The proposed coinage of nickles and
dimes will be the third coinage in the
history of the Hawaiian Islands. The
first was i'm the forties, when the min
tage of some copper coins of small
value was authorized. These We're
rather commemorative in purpose
than monetary, though they circulat-
ed as money for a while. But they
long ago ceased to circulate and what
were not lost or destroyed went into
the collections of rare coins. Bishop
q Co have few specimens in their
collection, but it is not known that
there are any others in the Islands.
The next coinage was the silver dol
lars, halves and quarters of King Kali
allaua, in 1888. The prompting mo-
tive in this coinage, according to the
historians, was vanity. The King
wanted it as a constant evidence OF
his sovereignty.
The proposed coinage is to meet a
real necessity of business and conven-
fence in exchange.

DIRECTORS GIVE consent

YACHT WAYS.
win be Large Enough To Take ON the
Largest Yacht in the island Wa
tiers.

There was Il meeting Of the llcala-
nj Boat club directors this noon at
which the proposition to build yacht
railway was brought up and approx
ed.
Some weeks ago some of the leading
yachtmcn of the city discussed infor-
mally the poor accommodations af-
forded for their yachts at the three
different boat houses. 1t was sugges-
ted by one of these gentlemen that an
effort be made to induce all yacht
owners i'm Honolulu to draw out of
the boat clubs and organize a yacht
club This plan met with favor and
some sportsmen even went so far as TO
roughly plan small yacht ways and
club house along the water front.
\ member of the Healani club sud-
denly suggested the idea of the club
offering these advantages to the yacht
owners. The matter had been discuss
ed a great deal before it was brought
up for consideration today. There
was a unanimous feeling concerning
the Improvement
Walter f. Wall says that the site
for the proposed yacht railway could
not be better. There need be no grad
ing and the ways can be constructed
in short order when once begun. The
directors voted that the ways should
be large enough to hold the largest
yacht in the Island waters.

CHAMBERLAIN's COUGH REMEDY.

This remedy is intended especially
for coughs, colds, whooping cought
and influenza. 1t has become famous
for its cures of these diseases, over a
large part of the civilized world. The
most flattering testimonials have
been received, giving accounts of its
good work; of the aggravating and
persistent coughs it has cured; of Sc
we're colds that have yielded promptly
to its soothing effects, and Of the dam
gerous attacks of croupe it has cured,
often saving the life of the child. The
extensive use of it for whooping cough
has shown that it robs that disease of
all dangerous consequences. Sold by

OPIUM ON HAWAII.
A Smuggling Vessel Reported Off the
Puma Coast.

The Hilo Tribune strongly suspects
that an opium vessel has been land
ing its cargo somewhere along the
Hawaii coast. A night Waterman at
Pepeekeo saw rockets thrown up from
a vessel which seemed to be lying off
the Puma coast one night this week,
and no vessel in distress has been yet
heard from anywhere in this vicin-
ity. 1t probably isn't necessary to go
to Puma to land opium. A great many
people say that Hilo is a remarkably
fine spot for the operation. The Pu-
ma coast would however be generally
conceded an ideal spot. as certain pla-
ces there are miles from any human
habitation.
Collector General McStocker says he
has received no information of any
such vessel landing opium and there
fore does not know whether it is so or
not. But such reports are being fire.
quently circulated, and sometimes are
true and sometimes not.
1t is being reported that opium is
selling at very low price, owing 20
what may be termed an over supply.
But as to this also Mr. McStocl<er saws
it is perennial rumor AS near as
he can learn the price here is about
normal for the California product,
while the Hongkong article is rather
higher than usual if anything. With
the extent of coast line of the Is
lands and the small customs force, il
is impossible to prevent opium snug
Cling, but the price of the drug does
not indicate that there is any unusu-
al amount of it going on now.

Hawaii is not the only place that
has been suffering from cold and
wet spring. According to the Louis
lana Planter the cane in the South has
had a set back owing to the exceed
ingly inclement weather and its adj
vancement is not so rapid as is gen
orally the case at this season, which
is proverbial for its sunshine and its
refreshing showers. This is unfortu-
nate for the Southern planters and
may effectually affect the sugar mar
ket prices.
