The news of the disaster to the
Oceanic liner Alameda created great
uneasiness in the city yesterday and
there was much relief when it was
known that every passenger and Off
GERS and crew were safe. Telephone
bells were kept busy for hours. The
advance list of passengers was not
brought here on the last steamer from
the Coast and there is little known of
who was aboard, except as follows:
Mrs John Effinger, maid and four
Children; H. P. Wood of San Diego,
the new secretary of the Promotion
Committee; Sol. Sheridan of the Ad-
vertiser staff; c. r. Buckland, secre-
tary in the Governors office; Tom
Wall of Wall, Nichols & Co. wife and
child: w. NJ. Bray of Hopp & Co.; Ed
die Giffard. of spreckels' Bank.
Mr.. Effinger received cablegram
early in the afternoon from Mrs. Effin-
ger saying that all were safe. He
received another cablegram from Ed
gar Lewis, of Lewis & Co, to the ef-
feet that there was some probability
of the Alameda being refioated.

Passing along Achi lane to Bere-
tania street where the Prost Saloon
is located, the reporter came upon
another and even larger crowd of men
and boys. Another hurried count
showed that in the neighborhood of $50
people were there. All the benches in
front of the saloon and other stores
were occupied and groups stood at the
edge of the sidewalk. All the corners
were dotted and all gazed eagerly up
and down the street.
Uneasines was plainly manifested, as
the presence of a known reporter was
a sure sign that the winning word
would not be passed around while he

Fred Whitney OF the local Oceanic
ning that not a word had been re-
ceived by the agents from San Fran
cisco concerning the loss of the liner.
He stated that the office force up there
was probably too busy with other mat
ters to be cabling to Honolulu. mas
much as no lives had been lost.
The Alameda was built by Cramps in
Philadelphia in 1883. Her gross tom
mage was 315s, tonnage under decks was
1896, and net tonnage 1889. She was
3f4 feet in length 41.0 feet beam and
173 in depth, and was provided with
a single screw. -Four years ago she was
given a thorough overhauling and was
converted into an oil burner, and as
such has been very successful. Not an
accident has been recorded through the
burning of oil as a substitute for coal.
The Alameda was formerly on the run
to the Colonies, but after taking off
the S. S. Australia, she was put on
this route.
It is % years ago this month that
the Alameda first came to Honolulu.

proceeded to read the Methodist mar
riage-service in Japanese for the benefit
of the company, although the bride and
groom both understood English perfectly
Asada, who seemed uncomfortable in the
conspicuous position he occupied, an
swered clearly at the proper places, but
the bride only modestly bowed and was
voiceless. We fancied that the service
seemed strange to the company many of
whom heard it for the first time. The
service ended, DIR. Harris, smiling and
rubbing his hands in pleased way
announced to the company "Asada Fnfu"
or the Asada Couple" 1t may have
been a mistake, but there certainly was
an audible giggle from the demure bride
at these words.
Each guest then stepped up to con-
graduate the happy pair, who were
grouped pcturesquely before the symbolic
arrangement of the evergreens, storks
and tortoises. 1t was entertaining to
note the different manners assumed by
the friends of the couple as they offered
their fluctuations. Some advanced with
stately stride and bowed stiffly at
respectful distance; others who had been
abroad shook hands in European style.
The groom's American friend walked UP
in an easy off-hand way and grasping his
pupil by the hand said heartily: We'll,
| congratulate you, old mani" Others
Frustrated themselves at four or five
yards distance, murmuring an elaborate
form of congratulation.
At the wonderful feast that followed
the little bride ate nothing, in spite of the
persuasions of her friends who crowded
around her. But the demure little
woman sat with downcast eyes and
flashed out mischievous chances now and
then, writing sentences on the hands of
one of her school-friends, who held her
hand. No doubt she was making witty
side-remarks upon the company and the
unhappy-looking bridegroom.
At nine o'clock the feast ended, and
the guests retired after seeing the newly
welded pair off in a double iinrikisha,
the Americans resisting an impulse to
throw some of the many shoes at the tea
house door after the pink bridal hood

hour named at the first of a series of
curved bridges which spanned the lake
to the island. We found a beautifully
robed Japanese woman waiting at the
tea-house door to welcome the guests, in
whom we recognized Mrs. Mori the 60
between. She was beaming with joy
and chatted merrily as she led us to the
dressing room, a duty that she on no
account would delegate to a servant.

character and disposition, which you
assured me were all that could be desired.
I find it otherwise; therefore | place the
business in your hands
This would be awkward for the go
between who wishes to establish repu-
tation for making good matches. In
short, one such case would ruin her repu-
tation, and as not money but fame is
what she aims at, she is extremely careful.
Sister Marion reminded me that among
all our circle of Japanese woman acquaint-
ances the marriages seemed to have
turned out happily. Brought up to pay
=
to fear to bring unpleasant notoriety upon
their family names, the Japanese women
bear a great deal with admirable patience
and gentleness. Unselfshness is the
keynote of the Japanese female character.
The room in which Asada's wedding
took place was a large hall of twenty
mats or more, with no furniture except
ing the braziers and the wedding-sy symbols
of pine, plum and bamboo set in the
raised place of honor. This might be
considered bare according to European
ideas but the dainty immaculateness of
the mats, the beauty of the woodwork,
the attractive screens, prevented any
idea of baroness entering the mind. AS
the couple were Christians, the ceremony
was to be performed by the Rev. Mr..
1Aeiillo NilO" liotJ vi IliC SiiltCd otdICo,
who arrived soon after us, accompanied
by Mr.. Sanford who had been the bride
groom's instructor in English.
We waited over an hour, which the
women whiled away by making flowers
and storks out of their paper hand
kerchiefs. The talk was entirely on
marriages and brides, and the women
asked me to tell them about marriage
customs in other countries. They were
shocked to learn that in America young
people knew each other before marriage
and got along without go-between.
How very odd So unconventional!
they murmured behind their fans.
At last there was a slight stir, and
everybody rose from their kneeling posi-
ton as side door opened and Asada
appeared, leaning heavily on the arm
of the go-between's husband and appear
ing pale and nervous. He was followed
by his family, father, mother, little
sister and small brother, all solemn and
prim, rusthng along in their best silk
