BRIDE AND GROOM HERE.
Former Purser Buffanoeau Comes Tt
Reside In Honolulu.

Among the passengers for Honolulu
on the Rio de Janeiro yesterday were
her former purser, Eugene ID. Bunap-
deau and his bride, formerly Miss Vic-
toria Ellis of this city.
Honolulans will doubtless remember
the romantic wedding which took place
in this city on the night preceding toe
departure of the Rio de Janeiro for san
Francisco on her last trip. The mar
rage was kept very secret until the
vessel arrived in San Francisco, al
though everybody on the Rio knew
everything about it, and, although
Buffandeau chose to deny the ap-
'proaching marriage to the Advertiser
reporter only about a half hour before
the happy event took place, Honolulu
was also well acquainted with the az
fair before the ceremony was pers
formed.
The San Francisco Examiner of De-
cember 9 gives considerable space to
the romance of the former purser of the
Rio and his charming bride. That pa
per devoted a quarter of a page TO the
story of the loving couple.
| The Examiner says that the bride
went up to San Francisco on the Rio
with her husband under the name OF
Miss Victoria Ellis instead of Mrs. Eu-
gene d. Buffandeau.
The wedding party, the Examiner
goes on. comprised the contractire
couple, Miss Agnes Weed as brides
maid, G.. J. Englehardt, freight clerk
of the Rio, as best man, and Wallace
Davis, "a wealthy planter" uncle of the
bride The marriage took place in th'
ICatholic church. Uncle Davis givins
away his handsome niece. At the con
clusion of the ceremony a sumptuou
banquet was discussed at the home o
John McVey, where Uncle Davis win
flowed as wine ought to flow.
And when the ship was sailing near
lly all Honolulu was at the dock an
there was brave display of flowers
but the couple kept their secret. The
the tug Fearless with merry part
and full band followed the Rio dow
stream. the band discoursing Hawaii
sweetest melodies.

Salmon That Skylark After Drinking

AUGUSTA, Maine, Nov. 24.-An un-
usual characteristic of the salmon, as
we'll as the insignificant sucker, taken
from Maine rivers, is the aldermanic
abdomen. This is caused by the beer
drinking habit of the fish. 1t is GUS
tomary to spill all the beer seized in
Maine cities into sewers which empty
into the river. Sometimes one hun
dred barrels are spilled a day.
Since the days of the first beer seiz-
ures in Auburn and Lewiston, fish
have collected in schools around the
Auburn claybank on certain days to
drink beer. For twenty-four hours
after splitting white bellies are seen
turning up on the river bottom. The

REAR DRIVE At FIVE MILE ISLAND.
Good Water. Small Number Of Logs and a
Large Crew Work to Advantage Of Drivers.

The rear drive is now at Five Mile
Island, short distance above this city.
a point which has seldom if ever been
reached before at this season of the
year. There are seve. al reas ms for he
rear drive being at this point. In tha
first place several accidents have hap
pened by which nearly 2OO, 900 feet of
logs are left up river. These logs were
sdetracked. early in the season. 100, :

the water not being high enough to
get the logs out This Of course left
less logs to be driven and fewer 10
accumulate along the banks for the
rear drive.
Another reason why the logs are here
so much earlier than usual is that the
water has been so high. From the very
first there mas been a good driving
pitch. The result is that after the
main drive had passed but very few
logs had been left on shore to be roll
ed out into the river and be cared for
by the men in the rear driving crew.
Still another reason given is that the
crew is larger than usual. 50 that the
men have been able to work to better
advantage There are at the present
time something like 40 men in the crew
that is working at Five Mile Island.
They are getting along 50 We'll with
their work that the drive will pass
this point in about five days.
Taken all in all, the season has been
very favorable to the river drivers. but
in spite of an thIs they will not be
sorry to see the last OF the drive
housed in the fallowell boom and their
work for the season brought to a close.
