ANUKA
CROWDED
DESCRIBED BY ONE OF THE
PASSENGERS ABOARD AS A
WONDERFUL TRIP.

Crowded to the limit the Union
Steamship Company's S. S. Manuka,
on the Canadian-Auytralian run, ar
rived off port early this morning from
Sydney and Suva after a pleasant voy-
age in which dances and lectures, re-
captions and parties, Switchboard con-
tests and cricket-matches on deck and
music and a fancy dress ball figured
most successfully.
1T was a wonderful trip" remark
ed one of the passengers to a Star
representative as the latter lodged a
sling of crates of onions going over
the side.
There are six hundred tons of goou
things to eat and otherwise make use
of aboard the Manuka for Honolulu
and the inevitable took up good pro
portion of the space.
Eyes, it was wonderful trip said
the passenger.
Some of the officers had to give up
their hunks to make room for the pas
sengers and the people in the steerage
! kicked because they claimed they sur
fered as a result of an attempt being
made to make room for first class pas
sengers in their quarters while they
some of them, so they declare, were
given what was left.
"There are not enough liners be-
tween Australia and Canada and we
are naturally crowded, but there Is
everything of the best aboard
"The fancy dress ball was immense
and l understand we will have another
soon after leaving here"
e. B. Thomas, a Honolulu man who
has been away some years, returned
with many trophies of the big game
chase in distant parts. He has been
shooting elephants and tigers in the
Indian jungle and has returned to Ho'
noluu for rest. He inquired, upon
landing. after several defunct Homo
lulans. BY the way, Mr.. Thomas has
the distinction of having had his obi
tuary published here in his absence, OF
the strength of the notice of the deati
of one of the same name in a foreign
paper.
There were eight Hindus in thu
steerage for Honolulu. They haY'
heard Hawaii's fame afar and hav'
come to investigate.
Don't forget to say that the lad
who took the first prize at the fame,
dress bali" said an officer, was ar
rayed as a brown paper parcel

PRACTICAL
EDUCATION
FINE EXAMPLES OF WORK DONE
UNDER A RECENTLY ARRIVED
CALIFORNIA TEACHER.

The work being done at the Aiea
school by Miss Mary Maxwell, who
came here about a year ago from
Fresno, California, was well shown
this morning by photograph exhibit
ed in the rooms of the Department
of Public Instruction. The photograph
shows six Japanese and Hawaiian
girls of from nine to sixteen years of
age standing and three sitting on the
ground. The six who are standClg
are all wearing dresses which they
have made themselves as the result
of the instruction in needle-work
which they have received in the
terms of the present school year.
Those sitting down are wearing en-
broidered collars which have been
made by the pupils in the same man
ner. None of the work was done by
the teachers.
The practical lessons which are
now being given in the public schools,
Of which this is a good illustration,
would doubtless be very pleasing to
Mrs. Dowsett, of the School Board,
were she here, as she has been trying
by all means in her power to have
more of this work introduced in the
various classes. The work which has
been done by Miss Maxwell came in
for high praise from the School Sup
erintendent.
