The Summing Up Of the Dead
Sheep.

The last report we have is from
MIR John A Botkin, PaIo Alto, and
he has found in his section but IL
dead sheep, valued at BIC.
From what we would term the
Monterey neighborhood MIR. Robt.
Campbell reports about lO7 valued
at $500. Mr. Campbell says shed
your sheep during severe storms.
With few exceptions this coYers
the cosnty pretty well, and in sum-
ming it all up we find the number
of sheep that died in the county
during last winter to be about $40,
valued at about 81, $50.
1t seems that the Monterey and
Doe Hill sections suffered most,
reports from other localities falling
far short Of the number reported
from these two points, it may be
however that these sections handle
more sheep.

He Cared for Them When They
We're Old.

Many parents slave along until
ttev are broken d 50. for their
children. No sacrifice is too great
for them to make just so it helps
one of the boys or one of the girls
For them to know that is enough
and willingly they go on making
sacrifice after sacrifice, and at last
they are old and are not able to
help others nor themselves. Now
is the time for the children to re-
turn the Kindness by taking care
of their parents in their old days;
but how often do We See failure
along this line.
A case in which young man by
kindness and attentions fully re-
paid his parents for what they had
done for him, came under our OBJ
servation not many years ago.
He was the youngest child and
remained at home, helping the old
folks in their declining years, until
he became master of trade. Then
when they became older and more
HELPLESS and he could not be with
them so much he gave OF his means
to help maize them comfortable.
The boy married and soon a
family gathered about him and
claimed his care, but he did not
forget the old folks. Soon
the kind old mother was
brought to her last sick bed, but
the home cares and business cares
of the boy we're not too great for
him to forget mother. SO he want
to her bedside and FOR three long
years while she fingered in help
lessness. and uuti death came and
took her away. he saw that her
every want was supplied and every
wish gratifed. Night after night
he kept watch alone at her bedside
and administered unto her. 50
much Of his time and means did he
give that lie felt it heavily i'll his
business. and while his own family
was we'll provided for, yet there
was much time that he could not
be with them; but he did not FOR
get that long years before mother
had watched by his bedside when
he was helpless, and he did not
leave her.
Father and mother are both gone
now. The boy is thrifty me-
chauic and Ole Of our best citizens
A noble deed, it will be sud, w"s
this, and so it was-noblP, manly
kind. 1t does good to have ones
attention called to such good acts
and we may directly learn to look
for the good and not the bad
Sometimes we are SO intent Oh
finding something disasreeable
against our neighbor that we can
take one Of his very little crooked
steps and by urging and toaxing
and adding a little color, we have
the very disagreeab,e thing we
we're looking for.
Try to find good, use diligence
in doing so, and So much Of the
good that we have overlooked Will
he within onf touch, all about us

The Transport Grant.

On the recommendation of General
Gillespie, CHEF of engineers, the Seere-
tary of War has given the necessary
authority for the conversion of the
army transport Grant at San Francis
co into a hydraulic dredge for use in
the improvement of the mouth of the
Columbia river, which Improvement is
estimated to cost about $1,000, 900. The
nature of the work requires dredging
operations at the bar before the sea
wall can be extended, and it vas DEEM
ed advisable to utilize the Grant for
that work. 1t is estimated that the
vessel can be made ready for the dredg-
ing operations by the 1st of May next.

BABIES BORN ON
THE HIGH SEAS
What purser Freeman of Steamer
America Maru Thinks
of Them.

"I love babies, and then again / don't"
said Purser Freeman of the Hongkong
Maru yesterday, for babies sometimes
give a purser lots of grief. For in
stance, we get a man and wife over
on the other side as steerage passen-
gers to the Coast. OF course the i'm
migration officials see to it that every
passenger has a certain amount of
money before they can land on Amer
lean territory. Thus the pilikia.
Now the pinch comes when the man
and wife have just enough money to
provide their own entry. Well. when
we get about two days out, along
comes a baby. The pair cannot divide
their fortune by three and still have
equal shares large enough to get them
past the shore folks. That's the hitch.
It's up to the immigration people TO
decide such questions, though, and I've
quit worrying about them, although
they give a person lots of grief, as he
must change his manifest all around,
and get the youngsters nam on it.
did you ever have any trouble
about the folks having a name for the
kid in time to get your manifest made
up before arriving in port" he was
asked.
We'll, no, not exactly. You see we
take the first name they give it, and
if they change their minds and want
to mix it up with another name
when they arrive at the Coast, that's
their concern
Have any babies this trip?"
Sure! The oracle never fails. We
always count on three babies being
born every trip. One come along three
or four days ago, and if We have luck
l suppose we'll have the regulation
number aboard when the steamer
reaches San Francisco"
Then Freeman's face lighted up with
enc of those angelic smiles for which
he is famous, and a moment later was
down to hard work again.

NEWS OF THE WATERFRONT.
HONGKONG MARU
FROM THE ORIENT
Big Cargo Brought by
Well Known Jap
Liner.

The Jap liner Hongkong Maru ar
rived off port shortly after IL O'Clock
on Friday morning, but owing to the
fact that there were over 500 persons
on board who had to be examined by
the quarantine omeials, the vessel did
not reach the Pacific Mail wharf until
nearly 3 O'Clock.
The Hangkong Maru had a good pas
sag from Yokohama, but officers of
the vessel say that nearly every steam
er voyaging between America and Ja-
pan during the last few weeks has met
with typhoons. The steamer now in
port had a typhoon for two days on her
voyage out to the Orient.
The vessel has a cargo of about 900
tons of general merchandise, which
she will discharge at, the Pacific Mail
wharf, owing to the fact that the big
cargo brought from the Orient by the
Gaelic left the Quarantine wharf in
such a congested condition that there
will not be room there for several days
for any more goods. The twenty-four
hundred tons of goods brought from
the Orient by these two steamers dur
ing one week constitutes quite a rec
ord for Honolulu. and the customs
revenues for the week amount to quite
a sum of money.
The Hongkong has a large number of
passengers on board, ten of them being
for Honolulu. Mrs. M. S. Elliot, Jr.,
wife on one of the officers Of the cruis-
er New York, comes from Yokohama to
Honolulu to await the arrival of the
naval vessel at this port.
One of the most interesting of the
steamers passengers is Chikitsu Aoki,
formerly a surgeon in the Japanese
navy, and the man who revolutionized
the methods of feeding the crew of Jap
war vessels. When Aoki started work
in the navy the mems diet consisted
mostly of rice, but the doctor promptly
had this changed, and the men now get
almost as liberal a supply of meat as
sailors in any of the navies of the
world.
Mr.. and Mrs. J.. l.. Beveridge and
family, who passed through Honolulu
some time ago on their way to the
Orient, are now returning On the
Hongkong to the mainland.
Paul R Forbes, an American mining
engineer, is returning from an extend
ed investigation of the mining re-
sources of the Flowery Kingdom.
H. S. Acheson, a New York news
paper man, is returning from the Phil
ippines.
AS the vessel has a very large
amount of cargo. to discharge, she VIII
not sail for the Coast until 8 o'clock
this morning.

and FiFty-Two Days

and having a crew of Hawaiians. is
now out one hundred and 1fty-two days
on q voyage to New York from this

New York on the way

0. G.. Freeman, purser of the Jap

earlier than did the Maru steamer. AS
the cruiser will come along at a much
slower pace than the Jap steamer she
is not expected to arrive here before
Monday.

Boots for Steamer Fuel.

While steamship owners in the Pa
cific are making every effort possible
to get the best results out of fuel oil
a new attempt is being made to eeono-
mize in the use of fuei by a Norwegian
skipper on the Atlantic. A Norwegian
steamer arrived in New York recently
from Jamaica ports with a big cargo
of bananas and a deck load of tree roots
which We're to be used as fuel in max
ing the trip back to the West Indies.
Some Of the roots were probably a nun
bred years old, and gnarled and tough.
The engineer of the vessel declared that
they made a fire much superior to
bunker coal Inc that they would burn
twice as long. The craft happened to
pick up this fuel because the skipper
had heard that coal was selling for
about its weight in gold in New York
and he feared that he would be unable
to secure any.

The tug Kaena towed the pile driver

used for this purpose.
