The Oceanic Steamship company's

the New Year well by getting into port

early morning and landing her pas
sengers at Pacific street wharf before
the city had fairly opened it's eyes. The
Sierra arrived off the bar at 4:30 a. m.
and after taking the pilot on board
headed for quarantine. where she was
all ready for the doctor at sunrise.
The Sierra left Sydney December IL,
ana between there and Auckland en-
countered heavy southerly gales. There
was more heavy weather between New
Zealand and Pago Pago and after leav-
ing Honolulu the Sierra first encoun-
tered westerly gales and then good
stin blow from the south. In spite OF
strong winds and high seas, however,
she held faithfully to her schedule and
reached this port several hours before
she was expected. She was five days
and ten hours coming up from Homo
lulu
