The Word of Sympathy.

Said "A young girl in my hearing: 81
never know just what to say to people
who are in sorrow. so l never say any
thing if / IA help it. And the more |
feel the less l ear say. | can write u
note of coincidence quite easily for the
stilted phrases slip easily from the pen,
even when ] know they ARE useless, for
they never comfort the least little bit.
But when / am face to face with be-
reavement | am dumb, although my
heart may ache. Still it makes little
difference words don't help people in
grief. Aud if they did, all l could say
would be, i am sorry"
As if that were not the very best
thing that could be said!
That simple phrase carries with it
more true sympathy than dozens of
stilted expressions. When we were IN
sorrow, and felt as if we were numbed
by the awful loneliness Of our grief,
that seemed ours and ours only, what
did il mean to us when our friend
came, and, putting her arms about us,
sobbed, "Oh, my dear, l am so sorry!-
so sorry" That genuine, u%npremedi-
tated outburst brought sympathy that
softened grief. although nothing could
lessen IL. 1t is a mistake that to think
that so-called letters OF coincidence do
no good. OF course they cannot relieve
sorrow, but to the grief stricken there
is great comfort in knowing that some-
body cares; that the thoughts and
prayers of friends are with her who
walks in the Valley of the Shadow of
Death. And to one in sorrow the
world in general seems such a heartless,
careless place.
Let us not feel that because dozens
of other people have written letters or
spoken phrases Of pity to the bereaved
friend, our little note or word is nm
necessary. 1t may be just the touch OF
sympathy that will soften the rebel.
lious grief and bring m%uch-needed
tears it may be just the drop OF sweet
in the cup of bitterness that, but fol
that tiny drop, would be intolerable.-

AT SEA, Dec. IA, 1903.
Dear Folks One and All:
Your most welcome letter of Novem.
Der L was received by me at Yokohama
one hour before sailing on the 9Th inst.
ana L was very glad to hear from home.
we are now ten days out from Yoko-
mama, as start this letter, on u wav
TO Honolulu. And we are three DAYS
out from that port. We sighted the
Midway Islands yesterday at 3 p. m.
and crossed the lS0th meridian at 6 a.
m yesterday morning. Today is Sun
day n yesterday was Sunday-that is,
yesterday was Sunday for the people on
me other side of the line, and TODAY is
sunday in the States and here. We
lost a day in going out to China, and
coming back we gained a day. We
nave Deer at sea for ten days, as | said,
and in that time l haven't seer a thing
but water-no fish, nothing; not a sail"
or a 'smoke;" so please imagine how
lonesome it is. We have had a very
heavy ground swell ever since we left
Japan, and the old ship is always on
end. We had no heavy wind. 1t was
pretty rough crossing the bar at Yoko-
hama channel. We are wearing white.
Sc you see the weather is rather hot.
and 1t was very cold when we left Yoko-
hama.
The report is that we will go to South
America. If we do, 1 hope to come
home, for the ship viii surely come to
the States if she goes south. Then.
again, we might go right back to Man
lila. 1t is quite hard to determine.
am sorry to say l did not buy anything
in Japan. did not dream of this trip.
If | had, l could have got you all some
nice presents.
The whole feet is with us-the Ore
gon and five cruisers -quita a fleet, that
represents about 5000 men and they
will all spend their money in Honolulu,
l suppose you would like to know how
far have Travelled since leaving Brem
erton in May. l have travelled just
1896 miles since May II to date. An.
other thing | forgot to tell you that
don't suppose you will believe. We
are ten days at sc, and are to have a
chicken dinner. Cod storage does it
all. This crew ate 100 pounds Of tur.
key on Thanksgiving day.
| think | have written enough for one
time, so will close before l make you
all tired. Goodbye for this time.

TEREDOS THRIVE
IN THIS PORT

In the rebuilding of Honolulu wharves
the contractors have discovered that
many of the piles supporting the old
wharves were badly damaged by the
teredo.
The teredo does more damage in the
ports OF tropical countries than in those
of colder climates. In New England it
grows to only a small size and is feeble
and able to do but little harm, but in
Hawaii it grows to a large size and a
hundred or more of the little borers are
able to take lot of strength out of a
pile in few months time. It is said
that the teredo grows as large as from
three to twelve inches in length here
and sometimes as thick as from three
eighths to half an inch in diameter. One
open nail hole on a sheet of copper
sheathing of pile will allow the teredo
access to the wood and free to pursue
its work OF destruction. 1t is said that
in years time one of them will ex-
cavate cubic inch of wood from a pile,
if all of the wood taken out were con-
sidered as solid piece.
The piles now being driven here are
heavily sheathed with copper and no
nail holes are supposed to be in the
metal except those occupied by a nail.

The SQUAD
BREEDERS
Birds Imported From
Coast Because of
Local High Price.

The raising of squads for the local
market has not vet attained to any
degree of importance, the demand here
tofore not being OF sufficient proportions
to warrant any one going into the busi-
ness on a large scale. One difficulty in
the. way Of raising squads here has been
that intending purchasers. do not care
to pay 81 per bird, at which price local
breeders have held them.
Squads are on the menus of the hotels
at times, but the requests for them have
been few, except for banquets. The
Hawaiian Hotel has generally supplied
them and the Young Hotel makes an
effort to keep them ready for orders at
any time. The SQUADS used by the
Yoang Hotel come from California, and
are of the wild dove variety. They are
plump, with white meat, the result of
feeding in the grain fields. The wild
dove squads of Oahu have dark meat, the
difference in meat hue being that the
latter do not obtain as good feeding
as the Californians.
The Young Hotel offers them on the
menu at sixty cents apiece. The price
put upon the pigeon squads raised in
this city practically prohibits hotel men
from buying them here. A hotel recent
ly had an order for large number and
they were wanted quick. The steward
took a hack and visited several places
where pigeons were raised The lowest
price asked for the juicy birds was ST
apiece. This price added to hack fare
and other incidental expenses was en-
tirely prohibitive and the prospective |
host had to forego them.
The Young Hotel imports squads from !
California at the rate of about S. a |
dozen The meat is tender and the |
young bird makes very tempting dish. |
AS long as the local breeders keep up |
their stiff prices the hotels will continue |
to purchase their supplies on the coast, |
but with low prices, it is believed that
the squad industry could be made a pro-
htabIe one.
No banquet is now complete without
its course of SQUADS and supply of the
Juicy wingsters is necessary to the hotel
