/ ty-one passengers and ten mules. En-
| countering moderate sea and North

| wideawake Eben Low wasn't even
| down to the wharf to greet her. Cap
| tain Piltz, who guides the schooner
| in her short dashes between the is
| lands, reports that he will in future
make the steamers look to their ldu-
| rels in the matter of speed, even rs
he did on his last trip from Maui. The
, Pirate Kid is satisfied that the Con-
cord can beat the Hawaii in another
race, and says that if a purse is put
; | UP for race, making it worth while,
he win put some real racing sails on
the old fishing schooner and show
what she is capable of doing. The Con-
cord leaves Monday for Hawaii with
her usual cargo.
