do anything in the direction OF shaping

HOT TINE At POST OFFICE
ONE OF THE LIvELIEsT DAYS on
RECORD.
Foreign Mails Going and Coming in
All Directions and Island Mails going
Out as Well.

Today was the post-office depart
ment's busy day. 1t was one of the
liveliest days ever known in the post
office here. 1t was island steamer day,
and there were three big foreign mails
to be handled.
The Doric began the trouble by ar
irving last night, with an oriental mail
to be received and a very large San
Francisco mail to be taken away at
noon today. Then the Gaelic showed
up at daylight. with mail from San
Francisco and the post Office was at
once beseiged by a crowd of people who
wanted their letters.
The situation at noon was enough to
make Louis Kenake think he wanted a
vacation. The DOric, Kinau and Slam
were all three at the wharves, all TO
take mail. While the men in the post
Office were sorting out the arrived let
ters, there was a steady dropping OF
mail for San Francisc" and there are
lot of people on Hawaii and Maui who
wanted the Kinau to be sure and carry
to them the letters for those islands
which the Gaelic brought.
The troubles will not end tonight.
There are the Gaelic for China and
Japan and the Claudine for Maui and
Hawaii at ; o'clock. Then there Will
be papers to be sorted. which could not
be handled with so much first class
matter in the building.
About the time when the post office
employees lay their tired heads on pill
lows they are likely to hear another call
to duty, when Diamond Head Charlie
"picks up" the Australia off Koko
Head
The arrival of the Siam on Saturday
was lucky event for the postoffice
men. She brought so bags of mail. This
added to the Gaeic's would have
swamped the whole force, in spite of the
rapid work that was done.
