cific Mail Boat in Port-Has
Band Aboard.

So great was the oriental cargo of
tbe Pacific Mail steamship Mongolia,
amourting to thirteen thousand tons
altogether. over two thousand tons of
which had to be discharged here, that
the big liner cyaid not be dispatched
for the Coast Yesterday afternoon, as
had been hoped. and Will be gotten
away at ten o'clock this morning for
San Francisco with a goodIy number OF
Honolulu passengers and the mail.
She locked at the Alakea street
wharf yesterday morning, and at once
great force of stevedores was put to
work TO relieve her of the heavy freight
she had for this port.
She came into the harbor in style, for
she carried German band of five pieces
plaving on the deck-Quite a pleasant
surprise to Honolulu folks It was
about eight o'clock when she was along
side.
One hundred and twenty cabin pas
sengers are aboard the Mongolia, and
this includes what is left of the Los
Angeles Examiner party, after a GER
tain number of their membership have
dropped off at various ports on the
route of the Journey. Ten of the party
left the ship at Shanghai. preferring to
complete their journey ''on their own -

remaining in Shanghai and other ORR
entail cities for considerable time and
spending several weeks here when at
last thew happen to strike Honolulu on
the homeward move.
Then five more dropped out, which
materially detracted from the joviality
Of the pilgrimage as a whole, and five
staid over at Yokohama. Three will
remain in Honolulu for a while, which
totals eighteen who have dropped out.
There were ten passengers in the saloon
for Honolulu, over hundred going
through to the mainland States.
For Honolulu there We're one hundred
and fourteen Fiiipinos, who have come
to settle on Hawaiian plantations and
gain good homes and plenty to occupy
their minds and hands. 1t will not
take them long to realize the superiority
Of the Hawaiian over the Philippine Is
lands. For this city there We're also
forty-fve japanese, four Chinese and
two Hindus. There were over half a
hundred sacks of mail for this Territory
from the far East.
For San Francisco there are twenty
FIVE Hindus. the dirty, shiftless, lazy

humans there has recently been diseov>
cred the terrible hookworm disease.
Whether they are admitted to San
Francisco or not remains to be seen,
but it is safe to say that if any of
them have any of the signs of the
hook they will quickly be returned to
the land whence they came Fortunate
" for the two who disembarked at this
port they passed quarantine and the
rigid examination to which they were
subjected by the ever watchful officers
Of the United States Public Health and
Marine Hospital Service. As far as has
been observed. there has never been an
acknowledged case of the hookworm
disease in the Hawaiian Islands. though
many peonle might be supposed to be
suffering therefrom if the chief symp,
tom is any Indication. for, be il known
the main symptom is laziness and
repugnance for any kind of physical
effort.
