stead of L.ahaina, the Kinau was com.

stop at Kaunakakai Likewise she was
at Maalaea Bay as we were coming
out of it. The ways of the two boats
! parted there.
DOWN THE KONA COAST.
1t was a still and beautiful sea that
lay along the Kona Coast, where the
Mauna Loa plies after she has passed
the turbulent channel between Maui
and the big island. The channel. by
the way, is crossed in the night, the
ship getting into Kailua soon after
sunrise, and if you are a good sailor
you will have slept over the rough
part Of the road and be ready for the
smooth sea, in the morning.
The barkentine Klikitat was lying at
Kailua, ready to load sugar, when
went ashore there, and saw for the
first time the old time favorite resort
of the kings of Hawaii. Those kings
knew good thing when they saw It,,
even if they did not always have the
wisdom to hold onto it. One can fancy
that Kaflua might have been a de-
lightful place Of resort in the old lazy
days of the fulfilled monarchs, althousl
it is several other things besides de-
1ightful now
The town is down close to the water,
and is as still and quiet as the sea.
almost. But it does not smell so WELL
1t is full of aliens not overly clean,
and hogs, with the same qualification,
and donkeys too lazy, apparently, to
lift their voices in the songs of
Kona. 1t is said, however. that they
sing al highland maybe they do. A
great many things need the kindly
cover of the darkness.
At Kailua it is customary for the
tourist to leave the steamer and ride
overland to Napoopoo, which is on the
bay where Captain Cook first landed
That thing is worth doing once, even
with the Portuguese drivers and the
somewhat dilapidated old surveys that
are kept at Kailua for the accommoda-
ton. But, if you have done that Kona ride
once, I would not recommend it to you
again. Because the Mauna Loa is
much more comfortable than the sur
reys-and the roads of Kona leave
something to be desired.
DOWN HILL ENTHUSIASM.
Also, you are apt to be sorry for
the horses. The road out of Kailua
winds up the steep hillside, through a
somewhat desolate country covered
with cactus for some miles, and then
into sort of continuous settlement,
one little kuleana after another each
set apart from the other by rough
stone walls enclosing plots of all ina
ginable shapes. These We're planted
to coffee trees, once, and the trees
are still there. But they have been
neglected for years, apparently, and
the trees have run wild, or seem to
have run wild, and look uncared for,
and there are among them the old
papaia and mango trees of an older
civilization. Here and there rocky
paths lead up among the thickets on
the higher mountains, or down among
the stone walls in the direction of the
sea- The sea itself, blue and beauti-
full, stretches away into the infinite
distance, and a steep mountain, forest

nant, something in the internal econo-
my Of the Mauna Loa gave way an6
the steamer stopped dead, save fol
the way she had on her. The Kinau
shot past her with all sails drawing
and her propeller raising a long white
wake astern of her to wash the bows
of her rival. For twenty minutes, may
be, the. Nauna Loa stood there. 1t
seemed, indeed, as if she never would
get going again. The trade wind
freshened. and the seas were rising.
The Kinau, running like scared wolf,
was so far away that it began to look
as though she would soon be out of
sight. Still farther away, out in the
channel, the Likelike was likewise tum-
bling along, and apparently making
better weather of it than either of
her big sisters. She is a good sea
boat, that little Likelike, although she
rolls trifle more than the Mauna Loa.
But all things come to an end, and
the delay to the Mauna Loa did. With
screaming salute, a kind of defiance

AHEAD ONCE MORE.
He gave her all she had, and she
responded CALAMITY. 1t was a long
chase. Away ahead, in the rollers of
j. Molokai channel, the Kinau was diving
under the waves, almost. throwing the
spindrift up to the blue sky. She
passed the Likelike, despite the little
{ boats gallant struggle, and sent a long
streamer of black smoke back to smoth-
er the Mauna Loa if it could. Also,
the Mauna Loa passed the Likelike
The little boat, making gallant weather
of it still. fell away astern, very slow
ly. The Mauna Loa, as it seemed over
, hauled the Kinau still more slowly.
But she overhauled her surely For
!, the Mauna Loa, when both boats are
in trim, can sail rings around the XII
nau. But it would not do to take
chances on a race between them when
the Kinau is at her best. Mind that
Both boats had passed Molokai point
when the Mauna Loa overhauled her
rival and passed her. Only when she
had been passed, did the Kinau begin
to drop astern fast. And then she did
not lose so much as she might have
DONE, for when the Mauna Loa, after
sunset, was hauling out OF the road

clad as far as it can be seen, runs up
on the left hand into the clouds.
The road winds and dips about the
sides Of this mountain, and the little
horses that draw my particular sur
reg toll up the rocky slopes or dash
down them with an enthusiasm for
descent that is somewhat alarming.
Presently, the coffee plantations seem
to be better kept, and a settlement Of
thrifty Portuguese Is passed. Those
people have bananas to sell to the
wayfarer and alligator pears, and
are prepared to do business all the
time. Their homes are neat and well
kept, differing from the novels Of
the natives. The picturesque grass
/ house, even in Kona. Is a thing of the
past that is dead.
/ CAPTAIN COOK.
! 1t occurs to me that Captain Cook,
however bold navigator, did not
show the best judgment when he pick
ed his landing place on Hawaii I
could have found a dozen better places,
along the Kona side of the big island.
However, I suppose that slant of
wind took him where he went, and
after all he seems to have struck a
very populous and characteristic spot.
The bay, at all events, is picturesque.
and the scene very tropical. And if a
man is going to be killed for the bene-
fit of history, he is wise if he picks
a sufficiently picturesque place to die
in. He could have found better places,
as 1 say-or I could have found them
but the bay that he did die in will
do. Only, it makes it somewhat awk-
ward that you have to cross from the
steamer landing in a boat Or a canoe
to get to the spot where his monument
stands.
After the coffee lands of Kona come
the stock ranches of Greenwich and
Paris, and here the signs of prosperity
d. multiply. Indeed, there are excellent
prospects for all that Kona country,
when the life of the land shall have
changed a little, and when men awak-
