sun - n id IN Homo.

Anchored at the red buoy off Brew
.oI's wharf is the French two-masted
schooner Tahiticnne from Papeetc
having on board the aged James Ke-
kola. sometime missionary to the Mar
<qucsus Islands. and many Of his dos-
ccndauts, who are brought back to Ha-
wall by the Hawaiian Evangelical As
aUciauOn.
The venerable KCkela has been a
teacher ana preacher on the Marquesas
Islands since 1858. With Kauwealoha,
another of the faithful, Kekela left
these shores TO fight the good fight of
faith in the far off islands of the South
Pacific. NOw-forty-siX years after
kekela returns alone. for KauwealOha
remains to struggle for his remaining
years on the Marquesas islands.
Besides Kekela, the passengers on
the TahitiCnne were John Kekela, his
son and daughter, two daughters of Ke-
kela. Sam Kckela's daughter and three
sons, one other granddaughter of the
venerable couple, and Mr.. McCullom
and Mr.. Chammard, Americans, who
ar" returning to the States.
The schooner Tahitienne Is owned by
the captain, Joseph Winchester. She
| has been engaged in the pearl shell and
COpra business in Tahiti and the Mar
quosas Islands. She left Pepeete Feb
ruary 2ith for Puamau, where some of
the family Of Kekela were taken
aboard, and sailed thence March 18th,
to UapOu, where the remainder of her
there March y. From the equator
north until April 3rd strong gales were
! experienced with cold cloudy weather.

coast to take the place of the Tahiti
Cnne in the South Sea trade and Capt
Winchester will leave Tahiti shortly to
take command OF her. lie has been
among the Marquesas. Samoan, PEN
! hryn and other islands of the South
Pacific for the past twenty-siX years
and Is a good linguist in nearly all the
dialects of the natives there.
The two white passengers on board
are vanilla planters returning TO the
coast on business.
1t Is not certain whether Kekela will
remain in Honolulu since he has ex-
pressed wish to return TO that land
where he has labOrcd so long. Homo
lulu has grown clear out of his recol-
lection and when the missionary bark
entine Morning Star goes on her trip
next year. If he still desires to go back
to the Marquesas. he will be one of her
passengers
Kekela is bright and active, notwith-
standing his seventy-fye years. and
during his stay on these Islands will
be greatly in demand, for every Ha-
waiian wishes to honor him and his no
less venerated wife, who has been his
companion in all his hardships.

The Available Sugar Land Oh The
Island Secured.
IT IS A BIC PROPOSITION

,from Thur, lay. Dat,yJ

Henry Waterhouso a Company have
secured a forty year lease from Gay q
Robinson, for all the available lands
suitable TO sugar cane cultivation on
the island OF Nilhau. II was learned
at the offices of Henry WaterhOuse a
Company that the proposition is very
similar to that Of Makaweli; the own
ars OF Niihau receiving a percentage OF
the sugar in lieu Of rent for the lands.
The promoters are going right ahead
with the property. \ contract was let
with J.. +. Pinkham yesterday for the
boring Of artesian wells all over the
ISLAND. This work will be pushed as
rapidly as possible. 1t all depends on
the development OF the water however,
whether the island will be put in cane
Foreign capital Is seeking investment
in Niihau and ii is very likely that the
promoters will consent to have a large
block OF the shares go outside OF the
Islands
The lists of the Nahiku plantation
had to be closed yesterday morning at
II o'clock. by that time they were
over-subscribcd by about 1000 shares.
The promoters were very much pleased,
especially as the subscribers seemed to
he people who were looking for an in
yestment, not for a speculation The
Incorporation will be carried out at
once and officers will be elected IN a
few days.
Senator Watorhousc and his corps of
employees were kept busy Yesterday
taking in money for Multi stock. The
payments were even better than had
been expected
OF course there are few parties who
subscribed for stock when they did not
have any idea OF paying for it, merely
buying II for a speculation. This num-
Der. however, is very small and then
forfeitures will be quickly taken up by
those who were too late for the first
list, but have their names down on the
extra list. The stock will be listed
after the return OF Mr.. Waterhousc
from his visit to the plantation and
adjacent lands, when an immediate
rise in the premium Is expected.
The general tone Of the market yes
terday was frmer. HonOkaa advanced
again to 1926. Maunalei remained a

NEW YORK, Nov. 20.-With flags flying
and soldiers cheering, and with the band
OF the Forty-frst Infantry on her deck
playing THE Girl Left Behind Me-" the
United States transport Logan steamed
down the bay to-day and out to sea on
her way to the Philippines. The Govern
ment gave its aid to the godspeed by
sending orders that tugs follow the trans
port down the bay and care for the peo-
pie who bad come to see the soldiers off.
From the time the Logan left her anch-
orage in the upper bay at BIS D. m. until
she passed out Of Sandy Hook and was
well on her way she was accompanied by
a flotilla Of tugs. Some were Government
tugs and some had been privately char
tered. but all Of them were loaded with
mothers, fathers, relatives and friends OF
the departing soldiers. They cheered and
waved all the way down the bay. while

were still on board when the vessel had

a Filipino captain, who surrendered
with four men TO Colonel Andrew ;. Burt

the factory and volunteered TO guide the
expedition.
The Governor OF Neuva Visaya has
determined. like many other Filipinos in
these days. that the administration OF his
province cannot change too quickly, and
is coming 10 Manila to tell Major General
Otis Of his loyalty and incidentally to re-
quest that he be retained in office under
the new regime.
Admiral Watson has received an ad-
ditonal credible report that Lieutenant
J. c. Gilmore and five of the captured
sailors of the United States gunboat
Yorktown were At Tarlac November 10.
Lieutenant Gilmore was living in Fill
pino generals house.
The cruiser Baltimore started for Lin
gayen to-day. and Rear Admiral Watson
purposes to send another ship TO Natl
guen. IL the gunboat Helena. which is
overdue, has not arrived at Linguayen.
Sailors of the gunboat Castine occupy
Zamboanga, on the southwest extremity
OF the island of Mindanao. The business
men. chiefly Chinese, requested Com
mander $. w Very of the Castine TO take
possession Of the place and protect them
from the insurgents. Commander Very
landed a naval force. and, although no
details have been received, il appears he
found that he had a large contract on
hand, and telegraphed TO Major General
Otis requesting the presence OF troops.
But none were available except by with
drawing part of the force from one of the
neighboring islands temporarily. The
original plan was To have Brigadier Gen
eral Alfred L. Bates establish the head
quarters Of the governorship Of the Mo-
hammedan islands there when the new
regiments arrived. 1t will be carried out
later. when General Bates returns from
his trip to the southern islands. He has
been visiting the garrisons OF Jolo, Siassi
and Bongao.
The frIendliness OF the Moros for the
Americans is increasing under General
Bates diplomatic administration. The
threatened feuds of the Datos Jakai-
nins and Calois against the Sultan will
probably be averted through the pacific
influence of the American officers.
MindanaO villagers have seized a SNUG
Cling schooner bound from Iloilo TO Zam-
boanga and supposed 10 be run by dis
charged soldiers. They murdered all the
crew.
General Bates is now on board the

oos followed by the British in the govern
ment Of the Mohammedans.

J. S. OTIS TALKS OF
THE PHILIPPINE WAR

VINCENNES, Ind. Nov. 21,-J. s. Otis
is in the city. He is brother Of General
Otis, the present Military Governor and
director OF military operations in the
Philippines. When asked for his opinion
as to when the war in the Orient would
be brought TO a close he said:
You must excuse me from referring TO
the Philippines situation, or TO the gem
erals work. The fact Is, one paper may
quote correctly and another will change
the interview rather innOcently or other
wise for political ends. and that has
brought stern orders from my brother.

ippine campaign. BY that time Aguinaldo
will either be run 10 death or into the

paign. Generals Wheaton and Lawton
are fine commanders. and / am glad that

fighter but is about 30 years old. He will
be allowed TO chase the enemy later. Our
greatest disadvantage is that we have not
had enough troops over there to garrison
the towns as they are taken, which Is alb
solutely necessary since we are required
TO treat all peaceable appearing Filipinos
as rHendlies. When the 5000 troops on
