LurIine on the Mud.
J San Francisco Chronicle, May A.
While shifting from pier 3S to the
Western Sugar Refinery yesterday
morning to discharge part cargo of
raw sugar, the Matson steamer Lur-
Line, which arrived Tuesday night from
the islands, got stuck in the mud off
the Union Iron Works. The steamer
spent the afternoon resting on the soft
bank and did not get afloat again until
high water in the afternoon The Lur-
line discharged her forty-five passen-
gers early yesterday morning after an
uneventful passage up. Captain Weed.
ell and his officers had plenty to keep
them busy in addition to navigating
the vessel, the source of their anxiety
being the unusual number of small
children on board. Seeing that the lit.
tie tots did not tumble down into the
engine-room or roll over the side was
the principal pastime of the officers.
WiIheImina With Schoolgirls.
! The Wilhelmina is usually known
as the "brideship." This time she was
the school girls ship, for there Was
a large number of girls returning
/ from schols on the mainland to their
homes in the islands for vacations.
Naturally, the Wilhelmina was a live
ly ship on the way over. After the
first night out of San Francisco, the
weather was extremely favorable, and
the rest of the trip was ideal. The
deck was occupied by happy crowd
OF young and old, who played all
sorts of games, and wound up last
night with a mock marriage. 1t was
indeed an excellent trip.
1t would seem that the cholera
scare is abating, for there were sew.
enty cabin passengers and thirteen in
the steerage. There were many tour
lists, and some were prominent island
people returning from holidays on the
mainland.
There was big cargo, and this in
cluded record shipment of beef for
here, there being no fewer than Co.
600 pounds of fresh beef in the cham
bers. The rest of the cargo was gen.
eral, for it embraced feed, fertilizer
and 500 tons of cement for the Ha.
waiian Dredging Co. This is a part
of an order for 5000 tons. In all there
were for Honolulu $500 tons, for Hilo
1900 tons, chiefly fertilizer. There
were o4z DagS or mail.
All the crew seemed happy, for
there were no quarantine restrictions
on the boat, and they did not have to
look forward to any when they return
ed from Hilo, as they did on several
previous trips.
kukui on Repairing Mission.
The lighthouse tender Kukui left at
daybreak today for Hawaii, where
she will effect some necessary re.
pairs along the coast, as we'll as re-
plenish some of the reservoirs that
have become almost empty. She will
be away about a week.
