THE CRUISER PRoTET.
French Man of War on Visit to
Honolulu.


The French cruiser Protet, seven days
from San Francisco, arrived yesterday
afternoon and anchored in the harbor.
She is on her way TO the Marquesas
and Tahiti and possibly New Zealand.
The Protet is very formidable-lo looking
vessel, her black hull and sharp, far
protruding bow giving her a wicked
appearance. Visitors on board found
the impression a good deal heightened.
There are guns and pistols in such pro-
fusion that arms would seem to be on
board for a thousand men. At every
turn are stands of rifles and rows of
shining reVolvers, as well as swords
and knives. If the Protet ever got to
close quarters as men of war were
wont to do in the old days, not one of
her men would have to do more than
merely turn round where he stood to
get hold of some deadly weapon.
The Protet will remain here about a
week, taking coal and water. The OFF,
GERS on board are as follows
Capitaine de Vaisseau NJ. Germnet,
CommandantN de Division Navale du
Pacifique; Captaine de frigate Miron de
L'Espinay; Lieutenant de Vaisseau
Colliard, Adjutant de Division; Lieu

About four hundred men are on the
Protet and she is kept in tip-top shape.
Very few of her officers have been to
Honolulu before, and they are interest
ed in seeing the place A number of
them were on shore last night. Ac-
/ quaintance with the English language
is not common among them, but there
are a number who understand the Ian

The American congress- said Mir.
Loebenstein, has left this thing to Ter

ignored. The ex-queen is certainly en-

muneration, and so far as 1 may be
able to have any influence upon legis-

''Mr. Loebenstein is not alone in this
respect by any means. That large ele-
ment of the Republican party, which as
a matter of fact lis the Republican par

CURIOSITY AMONG SHIPS
THE BARK OLYMPIC's MIXTURE
OF RIGGING.
Her Captain Says Honolulu Has More
Biggest Deck Load Brought Here.

The bark Olympic, which yesterday
discharged the biggest deck load of live
stock ever brought here, except the
through shipments on transports is
of style of rigging of which there are
only two other examples in the world
She is four master, with two schooner
rugged masts, and everyone who looks
at her wonders whether to call her a
schooner or bark. There is no name
for her style, says Captain Gibbs, but
she is registered i'm Lloyds as "a bark
and that settles it. There is one other
similar vessel among American bottoms
and enc British. The Olympic is a
splendid sailer and seems to show that
her rigging is of a good kind. She has
record of having made $40 miles in
one day. On her present trip she made
half the journey down here in four days
and looked like a record breaker, but
the winds did not hold out.
The Olympic brought "a mules, "a
horses and Z cows, consigned to the
Honolulu Stockyards Company, Califor-
mia Feed Company, and William Nor
ton. Several of the horses are blooded
animals. The stock arrived in splendid
condition after the fifteen days at sea,
partly owing to good care and partly
to the Olympic's smooth sailing. The
Olympic also has 2600 tons of general
cargo. The vessel is the property of
I1dChIeiu az Company, having Deen
bought by that firm about six months
ago. This is Captain Gibbs first trip
here.
There are more big fun rugged ships
in Honolulu now than one would see
in New York" said Captain Gibbs this
morning. The captain was surprised to
| see so much shipping here. Honolulu
has now and has had within the past
few weeks, the pick of all the Ameri-
! can sailing vessels ahoat," he said
New York, of course has more steam
ers.
The Olympic will have to wait for
fumigation, like several other sailing
vessels. Some of the masters of the
ships have kick to make because they
are compelled to wait so long in GUAR
antine, while steamers are allowed to
come and discharge at once. The wait
eats up all the sailing vessels profits
| though the sailing vessels are no more
| dangerous than steamers.

SELECTING THE OFFICES BIG CORNER IN STAMPS
NEARLY 10000 OF AN ISSUE OF
1871.
Are Monarchy Stamps Redeemable I'm
News for Philatelists the World over.

There is a man in Honolulu who has
19,3O8 uncancelled Is cent stamps of the
old Hawaiian monarchy, representing
a face value of $3,475.4 A. He also has
5,724 cancelled stamps of the same kind.
The is cent stamp has not been in cir
culation for many years. They are of
an issue Of 1871, or nearly thirty years
ago and are a kind of stamp that has
been in great demand by collectors for
years. Collectors the world over have
had their eyes on Hawaii since the
government changes in '93, and they
have secured many a valuable addition
to collections from the many different
issues, but, that about twenty thousand
stamps of an issue of the monarchy
thirty years since should turn up at
this date will be a STARTER to all.
The holder Of the stamps has address,
ed a letter to Postmaster j. NJ. Oat,
Offering the stamps to the United States
at par value in accordance with section
30 of the territorial bill, though the
stamps are everywhere quoted at more
than par. The holder states that he
does not want to bother with the phila-
telist, but wants to sell the whole lot
at once.
The question has now arisen whether
the old monarchy stamps are included
| in those for which the United States
government has agreed to pay. Post
master Oat, acting under the advice of
the federal officers here, has refused 10
receive any stamps but those of the
Republic of Hawaii until he has fur
ther Instructions from Washington. The
territorial bill says:
Hawaiian postage stamps, postal
cards and stamped envelopes at the
pOStOfficeS of the Hawaiian Islands
when this. act shall take effect, shall
not be sold, but together with those
that shall thereafter be received at such
offices as herein provided, shall be can
celled under the direction of the post
master general of the United States;
those previously sold and uncancelled
shall, il presented at such offices within
I six months after this act takes effect
( be received at their face value in eX-
change for postage stamps, postal cards
and stamped envelopes of the United
States of the same aggregate face
| value"
The question which the courts may
have to decide, is whether the phrase
/ Hawaiian postage stamps" is to be
construed to mean those of the mon

THE NEW SAILORS HOME
LEWIS, MANAGER AND TURK
SHIPPING MANAGER.
Sunday Services and All the Latest and
Best Features-No Charge for Ship
ping Sailors.

The United States Sailors Home,
started by the Ladies Seamens Friend
Society, and under the management of
Lewis & Turk, is to open next week,
the managers state, and will be con-
Quoted as a tirst-class home and resort
for seamen, with all the latest features.
The ladies who are interested in the
affair have been talking for some time
of starting a home in competition with
the Honolulu Sailors Home, which rs
under the management of Captain Bray.
Mrs. Lewis and Mrs. Turk are both in
terested.
Oscar Lewis has been chosen for
manager of the home, and Frank j.
Turk is to be the shipping master. AS
the first bombshell thrown into the
camp of the opposition, Lewis stated
yesterday that there would be absO-
lutely no charge whatever for shipping
seamen on Coast vessels at least. Turk
will do the shipping" said Lewis, and
no sailor will have to pay a cent for
job. They will simply have to settle
what they owe the home. There is a
United States law against receiving a
cent from any seaman for shipping
him, and there are to be no bonuses
collected at the new home.
I'VE shall have room for about forty
men in the home, which will be run
as a home ought to be. There will be
regular Sunday morning services, as
there ought to be for the benefit of the
men, in an institution of this kind"
There is one other bombshell prom
ised for those who have taken most of
the business out of the hands of Lewis
& Turk. since the shipping business be-
came involved in it's present contrO-
Versy. Lewis says that a protest VIII go
TO Washington. to the shipping COM
mission, against the police doing busi-
ness in Honolulu. Recently Police Cap
tain Flint has handled nearly all the
sailors, as Captain Harry Evans used
( to. and Lewis says that when Wash
ington hears that the police department
has done this something will drop. Flint
is acting under orders from High Sher-
iff Brown, who concluded that the old
way was the only way to run the water
front under present conditions.
When the new boarding house opens,
under American laws, with prayer
meetings for a regular feature, there
will be a change say the shipping mas
/ ters for Lewis declares, I'VE viii show
/ the people of Honolulu how a home for
sailors should be conducted" Mean
while the shipping men are working
! against a rather solid combine of cap
tains, who want to keep on the old
/ basis.

FOR JULY FOURTH.
Town Greatly Interested in Having an
Athletic Program.


More yachts have Joined the process
sion for the events on July 4. AS soon
as all are in a meeting will be held at
which schedule of events will be made
out. Persons wishing to enter their
boats should communicate with E. o..
White or Ruby Dexter at once.
Attention is now centered on the boat
clubs. 1t is desirable that there be both
barge and shell races. The Myrtles are
ready and willing All depends on the
decision of the Healanis in the next
few days. The city feels that a couple
of races on July 4 will be good prac-
tice for the championship events in
September.
1t is believed that sufficient money
for prizes is now clearly in sight.
A meeting of yachtsmen will be held
this evening in the office of r. H.
Brotherton, room 16, Progress block, at
1880 o'clock, to elect handicappers and
decide on a course for yacht race on
July 4th.
The following yachtsmen have been
interviewed on the subject of a race
and have declared their willingness to
enter: Oscar White of the Eva; Judge
Wilcox, Hawaii; j. Lightfoot, Marion
Messrs. Crozier and Brotherton, Myr-
tie; Sam Dowsett, Edith L. w. VIII
liams, Pokii and Malolo; H. M. Dow,
Abbie M; F. Whitney, Helene; j. John
son, Dewey.
The idea is to organize a handican
race and to have each boat contribute
$40 to a prize fund. All yachtsmen are
earnestly requested to be present at the
meeting this evening.

IN BASEMENT OF THE EXECUTIVE
BUILDING.
Officials Visit the Place This Morning
for Purpose of Locating the Bureaus
An Immense Junk Shop.

President Dole, Superintendent Nc
Candless, w. r. Rowell, Andrew
Brown, Marston Campbell and some of
the United States officials were in the
basement of the Executive building this
morning selecting the offices there that
will be occupied by the several sub
departments in future. Everything was
in such a turmoil however, that very
little was accomplished.
The road supervisor took "A fancy to
the room at the Waikiki end on the
mauka side and put his sign up on it.
He may be changed, however, when the
offices are allotted. The other rooms at
that end are long and narrow. If they
are used the partitions between two or
three will have to be taken out.
The room on the Eva end on the
mauka side is being used by the United
States postoffice officials. 1t has been
fitted up and has a very neat appear
ance, although a trifie narrow. 1t is
just possible that Mr. Rowelis office
may go next door to this, which is d
very large and comfortable room.
Judge Dickey's second district court
occupies the big room next to the last
on the makai side. This was formerly
used by the royal chamberlain. The
court room will remain there.
In the rooms is no end of lumber OF
every description. In fact, the base
ment is like an immense junk shop. II
will take several men some days ia
properly clean it up.

The First Regiment, N. G.. H., wants

the booths there for plague hospital.
Since then the military men have had
no fit place for target work. For at
least two reasons the companies have
chosen a site for the new range about
200 feet beyond the old, and the matter
is now up to the government.

Leung Chi-tso leaves by the Claudine
this afternoon for a tour of the Island
of Maui in the interests of the Chinese

Kahului and Wailuku, and from thence
to every part of the island. He has
already been well around the Island Of
Oahu has visited Hawaii and Kauai,
and after visiting the different portions
of Maui, he will go to the Coast.
OF the Emperor Kwang Hsu's pro-
posal for a united foreign protectorate,
he says it was the only thing to do
and if effected will bring about the re-
generation of China. THE choice is be-
tween the partition of China" he says,
"and it's preservation as an empire with
the hope for progress for it's people. If
it is partitioned out among the western
nations, there is liable to be constant
friction and aggressive war between the
nations growing out of the division. If
the empire is preserved under protec-
torate, reforms will progress and the
whole people will feel the benefits of
western civilization"
