Some idea of the size of the contri-
button which the steam mboat-owners
have made.to the affair can be obtain
ed by trying to charter one of the
steamers for any private business of a
similar nature. During the past
three days there has been a tremend-
GUS demand for tickets on the boats.
Orders have poured in by mail, by
wire, and from nearby points people
have sentin personal representatives,
and in some cases nave bought up all
of the tickets on steamer;in order to
keep their neighbors and friends to-
gether. Several of the boats have
already had every ticket sold in this
way, and if the demand holds up an
other week will find the capacity of
the big fleet pretty we'll filed.

A Pest DESTROYER.

Professor Koebele while making
some Investigations in the Govern
ment nursery last Saturday made an
discovery. While examining
some caterpillars he found smah
parasitic fly, which is the only one OF
its kind yet discovered in the lslands.
1t is called the taching. The prln-
cipal feature about it is the fact tnat
it lays its eggs on the back OF the cat
erpillar. On this account it is very
