FOR KUKUI
,A.-f LIGHTHOUSE TENDER
FOOLS THE TOWN-MISTAKEN
FOR S. S. AORANGI

Three prolonged blasts from the
Electric Company's whistles, about 6
O'Clock this morning, stirred all those
interested to the alleged intelligence
that the S. s. Aorangf was approach
/ ing from the Colonies.
Telephone information, alst, was tC
the effect that the aforementioned Ro-
val Man steamship was tripping to-
ward port.
Therefore there gathered on what is
called the Bishop wharf, automobiles,
hacks, hotel agents, lei-sellers, and
the rest Of the usual actors in the play
.of a steamships arrival
But it was all a sad mistake. She
was not the Aorangi sighted She was
nothing more nor less than the saucy
little lighthouse tender Kukui.
The Kukui was returning, in a cir
cuitous manner, from the Island Of
Kauai and she was steaming up from
the southland along the identical path
way invariably taken by boats from
Australasia.
Diamond Head lookout saw her
smoke, and the Kului can smoke some,
and, expecting the Aorangi, and GER
tainly not looking for anything else
from that direction, put the town
wise, or unwise, to the information
that the Aorangi was coming.
Then came the three whistles and
the scramble to the wharf.
The Kului's crew is still laughing.
