Animated Scenes at the Wharf when
the Australia Sailed-Fully Two
Thousand People were There.

If the New Workers had any lingcr-
ing doubts of the warm feeling of the
people of Honolulu for them, those
doubts must have been dispelled by
the scenes at the Oceanic wharf when
the Australia left yesterday after
noon.
Seldom has there been larger

decks looking more like an animated

companion. the guards on duty at the
foot of the gang plank, were bedeclled
till nothing of their uniforms could
be seen and they looked for all the
world as though they might be the
stage soldiers in comic opera.
And they were not singular. nor ex-
ceptions. From the yard arms.

to the lower decks, where the men
were crowded against the rail. there
were flowers and leis everywhere. The
civilian contingent of the ships pas
sengers was entirely swallowed up
and lost in the military. 1t was the
soldiers who got the farewell greet
ings. It was for them that handker-
chiefs and parasols were waved. 1t
was for them that the stacks of the
lei sellers were completely eN-
hausted.
II was estimated that there were
1000 people at the wharf.
The acCoutrements and belongings
of the soldiers were brought dov1
during the forenoon and early after
noon and put on board. The soldier.
themselves marched down. arriving a
1880 o'clock. The convalescents ar
rived little later in army ambulan

The government band was early OF
hand and played selection after selec
ton. The regimental band from tn,
deck responded heartily. There wa,
unfeignd delight among the soldier,
at going home. but i'm the hour of de
parture there came also the flood o
recollection of much that was pleas
