The Lurline
Arrives
TOws in the MOhican with
big GUNS.

nolulu harbor Monday night after
a most evcntful voyage. The ship
is Il large freight and passenger boat
and will soon be one of the most
popular boats among the people of
the islands.
1t look over ten days and nine
hours to make the run from the
wharf in San Francisco to the wharf
in Honolulu. This was not due to
the slowness of the boat but to the
fact that she was towing the Mohi-
can with big guns for the harbor
dcfenscs.
All went well, except the passen-
gers, during the first twenty four
hours and then just after dark it
was found that the bits on the Mohi-
can had given way and that the
towing bride had pulled through
the hawse pipe and that the Mohi-
can was tossing helplessly in the sea
without adequate sail and no an
chors.
After hauling in the three hund-
red fathoms of wire cable and as
much of the Mohican's chain as pos
|
sible the Lurline started after the
Mohican. AT daylight she was
sighted some ten or fifteen miles off
and on getting alongside a line was
attempted to be fired from Il cannon
over the Mohican. The attempt fail
ed as the line broke off near the pro-
jcctilc. a line was then run by the
use of boat and the towing then
was begun again and continued
without serious delay for the rest of
the trip.
Captain Weeden changed the
course of the vessel to more south
erly one in order to avoid the heavy
seas that were raging in the usual
track and probably shortened the
trip by several days by this course.
There were thirty three cabin pas
sengers aboard. Many of these We're
excellent people and far above the
average. There were two brilliant
children who entertained the grown
people with their songs and recita-
tions, there was an eminent lawyer
who, with his wife was travelling for
his health, and there were two, mo-
therly old ladies who were loved by
all their friends and respected by

Our Militia
Company
Leaves for the Annual En-
campment.

For the past few weeks Company
VI" has been busy studying drill
regulations and infantry tactics, and
drilling and getting ready for the
annual cncampment to be held at
Moanalua, Honolulu.
The soldier boys were earnest and
willing and ready to learn the prin-
ciplcs which underlic the maneuvers
and formations and the hidden Sec
rcts of military strategy.
Within the past week or two it
was nothing uncommon to find men
backed up in quiet corner pouring
over copies OF the drill regulations,
or to find one with book closed, Il
far off look in the eye, softly and
carefully mumbling to himself some
dry, wcarisomc passage on drill and
tactics as if it were bit of verse
from the latest popular song or a
tender billet douX from a fair char
mer, or again to run across a group
earnestly arguing over some disput-
ed point in the execution of a would
be command, as if the issues of life
depended ON satisfactory solution
thereof.
Every evening could be heard
the rattle Of the drum altcrnated
with the mellow notes of the bugle
rising and floating in the soft moon
lit night, which to listeners meant
only 50 much music, to the thought
less so much noise but in reality
meant moil and toll for our soldier
boys.
In and around the armory the
khaki clad squads were tramping
and stamping from one formation
into another with breathlcss rapi-
dity which is puzzling to. the non,
military on-looker. On Tuesday last
the Khaki clad men assembled al
the armory and the apportionment
and packing of the camping outfit
went through with.
After = O'Clock in the afternoon
the Company, forty-nine strong, un
der command of Capt. Bal anc
Lieutenants Kanacholo and Kaa,
fell in and left the armory for the
railroad depot there to entrain fo
Kahului, followed later by the hos
pital corp detachment of twelve mel
under Captain r. II. Dinegar anc
Sergeant Crowell, all in heav.
marching order.
Arriving at Kahului, after Il long
tedious wait at the Wailuku depo
the soldier boys fell in Compan.
formation and marched to the whar
to embark ON the Claudine.
The wharf was crowded witt
people. The usual number of friend
were there to shake, hands and al
that sort of thing, and ladies t
admire the brave show and sweet
hearts with brimining eyes full {
fond looks to exchange few tcnde
nothings for Il brief space soon to b
safely left behind with the staid am
th2 prosaic and the aged.
AS the tug pulled away its SEQ,
load of human freight the soldie
boys sang Aloha oc" Il fitting fare
well to friends and swcethcarts an,
well wishers alike.
