Mrs. Parvenue is as eager to enter
the charmed circle presided over by
the personal attendant of Mrs Tiptop
as the former mistress is to be rec
ognized by the latter, while the gen
tlemen's gentlemen" belonging to the
household of Mr.. Croesus would not
begin to consort with the footmen of
people who are not in society. Like
mistress, like maid, is the saying, SO
1t was no wonder that Mrs. Stryver's
head maid should be as socially am
bilious as her mistress. She felt, how
ever that unless she could manage
some grand coup 1t would be useless
for her to try to gain admittance to
the intimate circle of high caste maids,
who always drew apart and chatted
with each other with enviable inti-
macy at the functions to which they
escorted their young charges, and
froze any interloper with a cold, ques-
tioning glance of scorn.
Sixteen-year- old Miss Stryver, who
was a "gossippy" little soul and de-
lighted in hearing her maids conf
dences, rose to the situation. II have

bilious Abigail you must learn

You won't ask that red haired maid
of the Parvenues, who gives herself
such airs? No; I wouldn't; just ask
the very best, and snub the others.

yourself? On, I win teach you. l will

party comes off. You needn't know

The maid was clever and saw her
opportunity. She was the first to in
troduee bridge parties as social func-
ton among the ladies ladies'" The
initial one proved an immense success,
and before the end of the season she
found herself thoroughly established IN
the position she coveted.

WRECK CANARDS
TOO FREQUENT
tiilo Boats Singled Out as Objects
OF Alleged Funny
Jokes.

The persissency with which some
unknown person starts rumors about
steamers being wrecked, is becoming
very disagreeable to people ON the
waterfront. This week a wild rumor
was abroad that the steamer Claudine
had gone on the rocks off the Hama
kua coast. An investigate6h disclosed
the fact that there was absolutely no
foundation whatever for the report
Sone months ago a similar report
was started about the steamer Maui,
and before that report, a rumor con-
corning the Kinau was also started.
While it seems highly diyerting per-
haps, to those who start such rumors
to think they have startled the COM
munity, it should be remembered that
such reports inevitably cause worry
to people who have friends or relatives
aboard the boats. Practically all OF
the crews aboard the vessels have fam
lies and the women naturally become
alarmed at the least report of mishap
to their husbands boats.

ALAMEDA ARRIVES
LAST EVENING
Brought the Largest PsssengeI
List in Many Months Had
Three Days Nail.

The S. S. Alameda arrived from
San Francisco last evening at six
o'clock. Her arrival was the cause of
an unusual amount of interest and the
Oceanic wharf was crowded with peo-
pie to see her come in. There was
little delay in docking the vessel.
She was crowded with passengers for
Honolulu, the majority of them being
kamaainas.
The vessel left San Francisco the
afternoon of October 4 and brought
therefore. three days later news and
mail than that which arrived on the
transport Thomas Thursday The
Alameda did not come down in as fast
time as usual. She had head winds
! most of the way and there was some
delay on account of a trifiing fault
/ with the machinery. She brought
about 1000 tons of freight for this
port.
4 Among those who returned We're

the government tug Troquois. He was
called to San Francisco by the serious

WERE HUNGRY
FOR MANY DAYS
Crew of the Schooner Nary
Buhne Finally Reach
Destination.

SAN FRANCISCO, October 4.-The
veteran two-masted schooner, Mary
Buhne, after long and eventful jour
.ney, found her way to a safe berth
yesterday at Oakland creek. Her trip
from Topolobampo,> Mexico, from
which place she put out forty-fye days
ago, has been one which will linger in
her sailing annals as memorable
passage. Deserted by the necessary
elements of life to the last extremity
and her main rigging torn away, the
belated vessel was met when at the
verge of distress by the steamer Coro-
ma, off Monterey, and given a helping
hand.
The little vessel left Topolobampo
not very we'll supplied with food and
water, and after thirty odd days OF
sailing the supplies began to dwindle
dangerously near the limit To add to
the difficulties stiff nor'-nor' east
gale was encountered, which proceeded
to play havoc with her sailing gear.
The little schooner was thrown about
in an alarming manner, but succeeded
in coming safely out of the melee, but
with her port rigging and mainsail
torn away.
With the water supply reduced to a
few buckets and the larder in SINH
lar condition, the crew of the vessel
were for few days required to prac-
tice the utmost economy in their diet
though at no time were the men seri-
ously in want. On October I'd, when
of Point Buena Ana, the steamer Co.
/ roma was sighted, and in response tt
signals dropped her course and fel
alongside. Captain Nopander of the
Corona was generous in his capacity
of ministering angel, and the famishet
4 seamen were given a suficiency o
water and provisions. The remainder
of the voyage was completed withou
particular incident, though all the mer
appeared glad to once more rest thei
feet upon terra firma.

SAN FRANCISCO, Oct. 3.-The bat
tleship Oregon has received orders to
sail about the middle of this month for
the Asiatic station, to relieve the Ken

quantities of stores and ammunition

SUGAR SEASON
NEARLY HERE
Several Of she Hawaii Plantations
Have Started Grinding
Already.

Within a couple of weeks, the sugar
season will be opened Island ship
ping will, in consequence, take on a
new tease of life and the harbor will
be busy once again. Several of the
Hawaii mills have already started
grinding and as all of the various
mills throughout the islands will soon
be at work, the prospects are bright.
1t is not improbable however that
there will be a desire on the part Of
some managers to hold back starting
grinding in the hope that they will re-
ceive a better price for their sugar
later in the year.
The recent favorable reports receiv-
ed from the Mainland indicated that
there will be a big rise in the price
of sugar. Inasmuch as practically all
Of the plantations will show increases
over last years production, the com
ing year will probably be busy one
That the various plantations are
getting ready to begin work of har-
vesting their cane is indicated by ths
large numbers of Japanese that nave
been taken recently to the plantation:
on Maui, Hamakua and Kauai. So fal
as is now known, there wil1~ be az
additional plantations to try direc
shipments. Those that have been ship
ping will probably continue to handl'
their sugar by that means.

and 1T is expected that some of th'

Rough Weather on Kauai.

The toughest weather known in six

the windward Kauai coast. Captain
Tullett says that there are places where
the waves were breaking fully fifty
feet high. So rough was the weather
that he did not dare try to take the

Hesper Back In Port.

The famous old bark Hesper is back
in port once again with load of coal
terday from Newcastle in fifty-nine
days. She had an uneventful passage.
She passed the barkentine Newsboy
which arrived later in, the day from
Newcastle. The conditions under which
the Hesper arrived in port yesterday
and those that attended her previous
arrival are in striking contrast. 1t was
last December that the Hesper sprung
a leak while en- route from Victoria tC

Ke Au Hou arrived yesterday from her
run to windward Kauai ports. She
brought $50 bags of rice and 1000 bags
OF paddy to various Honolulu dealers.
The schooner Ada is now at Kauai after
a load of rice. One reason perhaps for
the Ke Au Hou getting such a big load
was the fact that the schooner Malolo

to those Kauai ports, has been taken
OF the run entirely now and is laid w

CONVICT DIES AT HOSPITAL.

- SOA> DAAIo al AIOo1 ALI
Edward Campbell, a convict at THE
state penitentiary, died Sunday morn
ing at ST. Alexius hospital. Camp
bell was serving a ten year sentence
and had served for five years. He
was sent up from Cass county, having
acted the part of a bold highwayman
and single-handed having held up a
number of persons in a store at Hun
ter. He has been a sufferer from
lung trouble for some time and a re-
cent attack of grippe hastened his de-
cease. Campbell had relatives in Chi
cago, and a sister came out from
there several days ago upon hearing
of his serious illness. She obtained
permission from the penitentiary au-
thorities to remove him to the hos
pital, but medical treatment proved of
no avail and death resulted Sunday
morning. The body was taken to
Chicago yesterday afternoon for inter-
ment. In accordance with the law
OF the state, an inquest must be held
upon the body of any persons who
dies in confinement in a Jail or peni-
tentiary and Coroner White is holding
an inquest over the body of the de-
ceased man. s.
