mis- Club, number of talented young
ladies of Oahu College will give an
" All LADIES' minstrel performance at
Bishop Hall, college grounds, this even
ing at 1880. According to custom
only ladies and children under fifteen
years of age will be admitted. The
custom is disappointing one to men
who would go and enjoy the stunts
of the ladies who are seldom seen on
the stage in public on other occasions
and never in black face. The program
is a fine one and will be appreciated
by every lady who is privileged to at
tend. The olio will include some of
the liveliest aeis ever seen here and
they will be as well done as if the
ladies were professionals instead OF
anna eurs. Seats are for sale at the

HEAVY STORMS
RETARD SHIPPING
Seven Inter Island Boats Are
Tied Up---News of
Shipping.

The storm which has been creating
such damage along the Pacific Coast
for the past few weeks has apparently
struck the Hawaiian Islands. High
seas and winds reign supreme along
the shorelines of all. the other islands,
according to reports received here yes
terday, and, as a consequence, all of
the Inter-Island Cramps those not
kept on any regular run, are tied up
hard and fast at the docks in this har-
Dor. In all. seven of the Inter-Island
boats are held up here. The Mikahala,
Niihau, Ke Au Hou, and others have
not been sent out because of the fierce
storms that are reported raging along
the other islands. Although consider
able wind has been felt on this side of
Oahu, no actual storm has yet broke
forth. Old waterfronters predict a big
blow, however, as soon as the tail-end
of the Pacific Coast winds strike here.
Coronado Comes In.
Notwithstanding the heavy storms
that she encountered almost all of the
voyage down from San Francisco, the
barkentine Coronado sailed into port
this morning, having made the trip
down in nineteen days. Captain Lang
feldt, who has been mate of the vessel
for some time, has now assumed full
charge, Captain Potter resigning. The
course which the Coronado was forced
to follow to get to Honolulu would
make good snake design. Shortly
after leaving the Golden Gate, counter
winds were met, and Capitals Lang
feldt was compelled to make three OF
four long taeks before heading a
straight course for this port
The Coronado brought $4,000 bales of
good, fresh hay for the Leilehua cav
airy horses, two or three thousand
bales of which will be sent out to the
camp. by train, the rest being taken to
the corral here. Included in her cargo
were $4,000 bricks, and she also brought
about 500 tons of general merchandise
The Coronado is discharging her hay
cargo at the railway wharf at the
present time.

Frencher to take long slide this way

one of them, in this port not long ago
to the effect that she came all the way
from Hobart, Tasmania, to Honolulu
for orders, and then hiked back tt
Australia for a cargo of coal for Homo

ROYAL TOMB
PLANS SNARLED
Continued from Page One


to have the body of the Princess Pau
ahi. the late Mrs. Charles r. Bishop,
the wife of the Los Angeles capital
list, taken from the grave and placed
in the vault. If this is done, accord
ing to what has leaked out, the trus-
tees of the Bishop Estate, the big
land owning corporation of Hawaii,
will obstruct in every possible way,
through court injunetions and other
wise. This would bring the govern
ment up against one of the richest in
situations of the Islands, backed up
by the Bishop millions.
"The removal of the present royal
mausoleum, in which are bodies not
included in the Queen s selection,
would mean that these would have
burial outside the royal inclosure, and
this would possibly result in lawsuits
One of the bodies that would be af
fected in this way is that of the late
Prince David Kawananakoa, only re
Gently entombed.''
New Bill May Be Necessary.
Tt has developed since the matter OF
preparing the plans for this mausoleum
has been undertaken, that there is 8
serious flaw in the bill if the purpose
is to be carried out. The bill as pass
ed expressly states that the money il
to be spent for a tomb for the dead
chiefs and chiefesses of Hawaii. Thi.
appears to leave the present Queen
Prince Cupid and the late Prince
David out, because none of them were
dead when the bill passed and the
first two are not dead yet. Under
these circumstances the whole matter
is to be held up until new bill cal
be passed.
When the matter Of plans for tn,
mausoleum was referred to Queen Lii
liuokalani, she declared herself il
favor of tomb for herself alone an(
second one for the bodies Of tn,
late King Kalakaua and Queen Kapio
lani. Other royal dead were to stay
where they are now. This was not TIN
intention of the bill, however, and thu
desires of the Queen could not posi-
bly, be complied with.

NEWS OF THE WATERFRONT
CAPTAIN POTTER pROBA-
BLY, HAS SAILED HIS
LAST SHIP.

Captain Potter. who has been
sailing into this port for a good
many years, was missed yester-
day morning when the barken-
tine Coronado came into har-
Dor. His place has been taken
by Captain Langfeldt. who is
also well known here. 1t is
probable that Captain Potter
will never be in command of
another ship that comes this
way, for he is getting well
along in years, and for the last
few trips he has been glad to
relinquish as much of the re-
sponsible as possible to his first
mate, Langfeldt, who is now
the master absolute of the ship.
Potter S first vessel in this port
was the Ferris S. Thompson. He
was master of her for some
time, and then was given the
Alden Besse, the bark which is
now on the way here. from San
Pedro with a Los Angeles gem
eral cargo. Captain Potter was
well-hked here, and his passing
from active service has been
remarked with genuine regret
among the waterfronters.
