ABOARD THE LEHUA.
The S. S. Lehua was the judges
stand and aboard the little steamer Lee
hua the racing officials and their
friends were busting busy starting and
keeping tab of the events. The press
was well taken care of. The steamer
was the center of attraction; launches
and boats carrying officials and visitors
to and from the vessels came and de-
parted in rapid succession.
The steamer Lehua took the place of
the usual judges launch. She was an
chored in the harbor off the Fort street
wharf, and was in front of line of
wharves which were covered with
people.
The Lehua has been finely fixed up
since she retired from the inter-island
business, and she had splendid accom-
modations for her numerous guests.
Those in charge had provided excellent
arrangements and, incidentally, the re-
freshments furnished by Hart & Com
pany were all that could be desired.
Henry Saylor acted as master of cere-
monies in a way that left nothing to
be desired.

were her owner Captain Miller) and
