something that none of the excursion

such profusion that one wondered where

Messrs. Wears, Kennedy, Mckay,

''Out of the entire 240 people, Mr.
Childs said, call but five or six visited
the Volcano where they were well en-
tertained. They went in relays, a third
OF the party each of the three nights
We were there. They were so charmed
with Hilo that many of the party would
like to have taken cottages and re-
manned some time, had their business
permitted"
Of the excursion itself, Mr.. Childs
said, that if the ship could have &C.
commodated that number of passen
gers, one thousand persons would have
come. When the undertaking was first
talked of more than the number that
were required to meet expenses were
secured at once. At the time of sailing

from the Girls Manual training school,
which did high credit to both teachers
and scholars.
At l o'cIock q representative OF the
Advertiser looked in at what may be
called the headquarters and found Mr..
Wood endeavoring to direct his clerks,
talk through the telephone and answer
the questions of half a dozen tourists
at once, all of which he apparently
managed to do.
At the large table sat some seven
tourists of assorted ages, from fifty to
twenty, of both sexes, inditing letters
home, which, from the expression Of
their countenances, contained nothing
but good reports. Others sauntered IN,
wearing white, goldfringed badges and
the dropping remains of the morning
leis.
Mr.. Lloyd Childs was summoned to
give an account of himself and the ex-
petition which he was plotting. As he
emerged from the crowd he was heard
to remark: ON just give these pins
out, first This cryptic saying inter
preted meant that he was supplying the
excursionists with decorative pins
wherewith to fasten the badges. These
it should be said were decorated with
three fat oranges-rather prophetic, IN
view of the fact that part of the
morning reception had been offerings of
this fruit-some of it overripe, thrown
with excellent aim and considerable,
force, amongst the disembarking pas
sengers.
HILO AND VOLCANO.
Mr.. Childs was enthusiastic over the
success of the excursion, and he said
from the moment they landed at Hilo
up to that time, there had not been
a single disappointing or unpleasant oc-
currence
In every way, what had been done for
them and what they had enjoyed, had

visitors were from a land Of sunshine

self proud and won the gratitude OF
all.
The entire party wished to visit the
volcano but on account OF the num-

ties then visited the crater. each

all pleased with the sight.
The trip from Los Angeles was very
pleasant with the exception of the FIRST
two days when a storm was encounter
ed. All of the passengers then took
to their hunks and remained in them
for a portion OF the voyage. The Ohio
is not an ideal sea-going vessel. as
she rolls about a good deal. but. with
a few exceptions. the passengers were
happy withal.

had left for the volcano the remainder

haps more than any other was from
the bridge just below the powerhouse
in the city. At all times one could
see parties of the excursionists stand
ing on the bridge. watching the water
as it flowed over the rapids before
reaching the sea.
The koa lumber was also a novelty
which was greatly admired. A num-
Der of pieces of furniture were secur-
ed to be taken back to grace Southern
California homes. A number Of the
visitors also took occasion to visit the
koa forests near the Volcano House.
Other industries were inquired after,
and any number Of informants were
on hand to boost Hilo and her indus
tries. Pineapples were a Joy to the
excursionists and through the kind
ness OF F. S. Lyman, each visitor was

The trip to the volcano was enjoyed
by all although the accommodation

walked. eating the wild berries which
grow IN that section. At the Volcano
House they were cared FOR by mine

party visited Halemaumau and en-
joyed themselves. The only thing 10
be regretted was the fact that Madame
Pele was nearly asleep and refused 20
do any special erupting FOR the party.
However, all enjoyed themselves and
the trip was voted a success.
The Hilo citizens prepared a huge
luau for Wednesday evening and near
ly all Of the party attended. II was
a huge success although some 81 the
party did not indulge to a great extent

The trooper made one or two efforts
more, but she refused all answer. and
showed her determination to be silent
by turning her face from them to the
wall. Finding nothing was to be got
out of her, Singleton placed beside
her upon the chair a note Of the con-
tinental currency, of large amount but
for its deprecated value; then. with

NATIVES OF PATAGONIA.
Head Hunting For a Bounty-Ths
Price of n Wife.

"It seems strange to live in q coun-
try where you see only white men and
where man can go around In safety,
after living down in Patagonia for al
most a lifetime where q bounty Of IS
was paid by the authorities for every
head brought in by the head hunters"
said ]. j. Medlin, now Of Laramie.
wyo., but formerly Of Patagonia.
THE head hunters up to six years
ago went out at regular intervals to
hunt the Terra del Fuegans and when
they returned with the heads the
bounty was paid out without any ques-
tion. This tribe of people are lower
than the dogs and had to be extermi-
mated for the safety of the more civil
lied people. The bounty was taken
off about six years ago and now there
are no head hunters. Some OF the
former hunters still continue their
slaughter; but It Is frowned on by the
decent people.
The climate around Laramie, Wyo,
Is pretty much the same as the win
ter climate Of Patagonia. The summer
climate Of that region, however, is
pretty much the same as we are given
to understand the climate of hades is
all the year round.
'"The ordinary tribes Of natives sre

run of people in South America
Some day there will be a big rush
to Terra del Fuego. or the Land Of
Fire. as the country near the Straits
Of Magellan Is called. There is plenty
Of placer gold there and plenty OF
rich quartz. Several parties have gone
through the interior but have kept
their finds secret.
Patagonia belongs partly to Chile
and partly to Argentina. The land is
cheap and is about one-hundredth as
good for grazing purposes as Wyoming
lind is. There is no title given to the
property and squatter sovereignty
holds good until some man comes
along and gives the chief Official OF
the section a large bribe, when the
squatter Is dispossessed.
"rhe natives are not cannibals, as
has been reported. and probably new
er were. They take only one wife and
at the husbands death all the prop
erty goes to the wife. A man wanting
wife purchases her for so many
horses and so much property. No mar
riage ceremony is performed. but the
purchase Is more binding than the le-
gal ceremony In this country.
"The punishment for injuring q man
Is much more severe than for outright
murder. II a man is convicted Of
murder he Is likely to escape with @

chances are that he viii hang for the

How to Handle This Distressing and
Danoerous Aiinnsnt.

It is strange how little is thought
Of whooping cough and how little care
is taken to prevent It, for It is In
truth a dangerous disease. The NOR
tality statistics show that more chill
dren die from whooping cough than
from measles. Scarlet fever alone
among what are called the diseases Of
childhood causes a greater number Of
deaths.
A child with whooping cough should
be as strictly isolated as II he had
scarlatina, and It is very wrong for
mother to take her infant with this
disease on boats or in cars, where It Is
likely to carry infection to others. An
older child should be kept away from
school and not allowed TO play with
other children. except such as have
already had the malady.
It Is usually easy to recognize
whooping cough after the disease Is
fully established, for the paroxysmal
cough. going on and on and on until
the child's breath is all but gone. and
then succeeded by the long noisy In
spiration, is unmistakable.
The disease varies so greatly In Sc
verify In different cases and In differ
ent years that 1t has been suggested
that II would be wise to expose chill
dren to the infection In a year when
its course was mild. But It Is very
serious thing to expose q child deliber-
ately to the dangers OF any disease OF
this nature, for even in year Of the
mildest epidemic an individual case
here and there will be severe and even
fatal.
When II Is said that over seventy
drugs have been recommended In the
treatment Of whooping cough II may
be assumed that none Of them has been
found very efficacious. This Is not to
say that much good may not be OBJ
tained from certain medicines, such as
quinine and Delladonna, for example.
Yet the main reliance in the manage
ment Of case Of this disease is on
hygienic measures.
Although the patlent must De kept
away from school and from other chill
dren, II must on no account be kept
In the house. Fresh air and sunshine
are the best agents In the hygienic
treatment. City air is better than none,
but It is best when possible to send
the child to the country, where II can
be outdoors all day and not be forced
to inhale dust and smoke In stormy
weather, when one must perforce stay
indoors, the playroom windows should
all be wide open, and the bedroom
windows should also be open.
The food should be plentiful and
nourishing, and whenever the stomach
rejects a meal the patient should have
another at once-at least glass OF
milk and some bread and butter

Captains Yarn Of What He Saw on
Voyage From New York to Honolulu.
The bark Nuuanu. which arrived on
Wednesday afternoon from New York.
Is lying at Fort street wharf, looking
as spick and span as II just out OF dry
dock instead of having completed a
round the Horn passage. The Nuuanu
left New York on August Z, crossing
the line when thirty-on days out. OF
the mouth OF. the river Plate and along
the coast of Brazil strong southerly
winds and gales were experienced and
when considerably north Of the regu-
lar iceberg limit the bark ran through
miles Of sea dotted with mammoth
bergs.
after fifty years travelling on the
water in all oceans, and after many
anxious nights passed on the lookout
for possible icebergs when in the wa
ters in which they might be expected.
my first sight OF bergs was most un-
expected" said Capt. Josselyn. ut
came in the early morning Of October
13 last, when the Nuuanu was speed
ing south in latitude a south, longi-
tude 55 west, which is nearly $40
miles north Of the recognized northern
limit for icebergs.
Just at daylight on that morning I
saw a small white cloud on the wealth.
er beam. the wind at the time being
NNW. We were heading southwest
close hauled Looking to leeward, what
appeared to be an island came into
sight: but as I knew full well that
there was no land at that point, /
realized that after fifty years at sea I
was about to have the doubtful pleas
ure of seeing my first iceberg.
"As it grew lighter we could make
them out in numbers dotting the hori-
zon as far as the eye could see, great,
monstrous masses Of ice, and, to my
surprise. as white as snow fresh fallen.
The wind was blowing smart gale,
in which we were pitching, but the
huge ice islands were motionless. The
seas which tossed US about were with
out effect on them and It was hard to
believe that they were afioat. The
bergs were from one to five miles
apart, but we did not dare to sail In
among them. We counted twenty three
large ones on our port side bergs that
varied from 200 to 700 feet high. and
some of them 1000 feet long. We
measured one Of the smaller ones
with sextants and 1t gave us 29O feet.
81 cannot understand how the bergs
we saw were all so square, many OF
them exactly, resembling great cubes
Of marble. One or two Of them were
nearly round and the one we measured
was like a great armchair. the seat
being formed evidently by the rays OF
the sun falling on the north side and
melting out the hollow. The last berg
we saw to windward Of us about five
miles looked like a castle and fortress
combined.
"All that day we were carrying sail
to clear them, skirting the bergs FOR
about q hundred miles. How much
further south they extended we have
no idea, but 1t would seem that we
hardly entered their domain, for as
far as the eye could reach from aloft
they appeared upon the horizon. SEEM
