ST. kiIda Is Here From Newcastle.
To learn that a steamer has come
all the way from Sydney with coal
and will take sugar back, reads like
one of Mark Twain's jokes.
The Saint Kilda came in yesterday
afternoon rom Newcastle, N. $. w,
with a cargo of 1910 tons of coal, hav.
ing taken twenty-one days to make
the journey.
She left Newcastle on Sunday after
noon, November 26, and until Deem.
Der 10 the weather was fine. but from
December 10 right up to within about
five miles of this port there was a
very heavy sea running. The chief
officer stated thai for the whole OF
this time the vessel was practically
under watar.
Pleased the Natives.
The iGI.r kiiu4 was able u gladden.
up the hcaIis Of some OF the natives
of the t,iiCe E CUP. On December 6
the vessel passed within five miles If
Nukalailai, and four natives in d
.,arNe asked that they be given some
tobacco and Sunlight soap. Captain
Lewis made a contribution of tobacco,
and the chief steward handed out the
Sunlight sep. OF course, what was
done with the tobacco could easily be
guessed, but no one has yet been able
to think of anything reasonable as TO
the fate of the soap. The chief Off
Ger Thought that they might have
eaten t. AS long as the clnos was
in sight from the ship, the natives
could be seen rendering their thanks
by a wireless system of bowling and
waving of arms.
To Load Lumber.
OF course, Captain Lewis did not for
a moment expect to get load of sugar
to take back to Sydney to swell the
large amount that is produced in New
South Wales and Queensland. His
present idea is to proceed to Puget
Sound on Saturday next, and load a
cargo of lumber for the Sydney mar
kets.
