HARTFORD BURNS
OCEAN DERELlCT
Training Ship Tries Her Gun:
on an Abandoned
Vessel.

NEW YORK. June ia special to
the Sun from Washington says: The
career of an ocean derelict which has
been meandering around in the North
Atlantic ocean for many months has
been cut short by the Hartford, Admit
raj Farragut's famous Mobile Bay
flagship. The derelict served a good
purpose, as she enabled the blue jack
cts to have target practice under con-
Gitiens approaching as nearly as posi-
BILE to those of actual warfare. The
derelict was the lumber-laden schoon-
er Isaac H Kerlin Of Bridgeton, y. j
She was abandoned in a sinking con-
dition months ago.
On May 18th at twenty minutes pas
midnight the Hartford. while on hel
way from this country to-Portsmouth
England, came across her right in tbs
path of east-bound ocean travel be
tween New York and Europe. Tht
Hartford stuck by her until daybreak
Then Commander Hawley called th'
/ crew to quarters, and with the derellc
as a target, had an imaginary engage

Hartford's big guns. When the large
practice was over Commander Hawle,

Kerlin was regarded as menace I

Employees Are Pushed to the Limit
by Foreign and Island
EpistIes.

The story which the mail bags tell of
the work done in the Honolulu postof-
fee is an interesting one, and the cold
figures of the receipt and dispatches of
the thousands of letters and papers
are evidence enough that the postoffce
is one of the busiest hives in the city
The Honolulu postoff1ce is beset with

of mail. with island steamers coming in
with heavy mails on top of this huge
pile of sacks, and with thousands OF
pieces of matter being dropped into the
receiving boxes just a few hours be-
fore the sailing of steamer to the
coast or to the Orient. the difficulties
which attend a prompt distribution OF
the mails can easily be understood.
Chief Clerk Kenake in his report OF
the receipts and dispatches of mails fol
the month of May estimates that the
office handled over 100000 pieces. This
/ is low estimate as in making est
mates of the number Of pieces in eacf

newspapers to a bag. whereas Mr.. Ke

The windows were opened early also.
Of course to a man waiting outside a

his mind. The Mauna Loa also came in
with a, very heavy mail from the other
islands, and this was also assorted
with the States mail At this time, 4
O'Clock, every piece of mail which ar
rived today for the other islands is
sacked and on its way, so that every
body will have their mails by tomorrow

this.
THE outgoing island mails on Tues
days average about 1910 letters and
4ss0 prints.
The bulk of what we do is done in a
rush. 1t does not come in gradually. as
in most postofhces. For instance. when
the Kinau is 70 sail, often at 10 O'Clock,
everything seems to be up AT 11:1Q
we are literally swamped by the
eleventh hour letters"
Efficiency in the postoffice is being
sought after by the postmaster and his
assistants, and when it is taken into
consideration that thirty clerks have
been tried and found wanting for var
