THE KONA WEATHER
PREVENTED LANDINGS
STEAMER MAUNA LOA HAD
ROUGH TRIP ALONG THE KONA
COAST THIS WEEK.

The steamer Mauna Loa caught
some of the bad weather this week
along the KOna coast. She was I'M
able to make landings at NapoOpoO,
Hookena or Hoopuloa on the home
word trip. There was heavy south
west swell running accompanied by a
sortherly and southwesterly winds.
The weather was pleasant on the out
ward trip to Kau. The material for
the Kalea Point light was landed at
that place safely. On Tuesday night
the wind began to blow strongly from
the south west and by the time that
the vessel took her departure from
Kau for Kona and arrived off Kona,
the wind was blowing a gale.
Few passengers and little freight
were brought to Honolulu in conse-
quence. The vessel arrived this morn
ing. She brought a small quantity of
coffee and had only 2,552 bags of sugar.

A DESERVING COMPANY
The Breckenridge People Close a
Successful Weeks Engagement
With TOnight's Drama.

Those who failed to attend the opera
house last night missed rare treat,
vet few more could have gained ad-
mittance as less than score of seats
were unoccupied. Universal satisfac-
tion has been given by the Brecken-
ridge stock Company at each and
every performance, but last nights
play proved the crowning event Of the
engagement. In the rendition of that
grand old Southern drama, "Down
Where the Cotton Blossoms Crow"
every member of the company had an
portunity to display his or her dra-
matte talent, and to such an extent
did they do so that even an critical
audience would have been unable to
discover a flaw. The elaborate seen
cry was most pleasing feature. Mr..
Breckenridge has a strong company,
and he is doubly fortunate in having
in his caste ladies and-gentlemen Of
a high order whose department during
their soiourn here has been such as 10
occasion most favOrab comment
among our citizens. 1t is safe to pre-
dict for them crowded houses upon
their return engagement next season.
The play announced for tonight is a
comedy drama, "The Diamond K5ag.
