SIERRA'S PHENOMENA TRIP

said popular pursel SlnllH JhlS HOIu-
ing. for four days. the sea was just like
mirror. There was not breath Of
air stirring, and I'm sure that a sailing
boat would not have made mile a
month in such weather. The remain
ing two days were amid light trade
" inds."
As usual the Sierra had an enjoyable
time coming over. The hearty CO.
operation of the officers made the
Journey one long pleasant trip. There
was a ball one night on the upper deck.
This was voted a great success The
upper deck of the Sierra is eminently
suitable for such functions, for it is
particularly free from Instructions and
Is very roomy. Another evening there
was a splendid concert in the social
hall. There we're thirteen items, and
among those who contributed were
Miss L. Bright Miss Connolly, Miss
Jones, T. SUDDEN, DR.. f. Puleston, Bert
Fox, DR.. Lissner, a male quartet, Miss
Allen, and Mr. Crissman This was
another successful event. The social
hall had been renovated, and now
looks resplendent in it's new furnish
ings of green plush ahd repolished
woodwork. The hall has been rear
ranged, and on the evening of the
concert seating capacity for seventy
FIVE was found.
The Sierra is well laden both with
passengers and cargo. In her cabin
she has 101, and in her steerage
eleven. She brought 166 sacks of mail.
Her cargo comprised a number of
heavy eucalyptus logs, and five auto
mobiles.
The Sierra is now carrying two
stewardesses instead of one as form
egly, and the innovation has proved
welcome.
Tenyo Maru Made Slow Landing.
The Tenyo Maru was a long while
outside this morning, and she rounded
eff this performance by her tedious
to get alongside the dock.
The delay in clearing her was ow-
ing to a mistake in the count of the
Oriental passengers. They had to be
and counted again. At
last the matter was adjusted, and she
steamed in. The work of putting her
alongside the dock occupied a con-
siderable amount of time, and she was
not tied up until just on ten o'clock.
Popular Purser Reid in still in the
urser's office. He reports that the
rip across was fine one, and was
thoroughly enjoyed all the way. She
left Yokohama with eighty-six cabin
passengers, twenty of whom are for
here, lO3 in the second class, thirteen
Of whom get off here, and 259, in
the steerage, 132 being for Honolulu.
OF this number for here twenty-one
are Fflipinos, thirteen Chinese and
ninety-eight Japanese.
She has 1,OO9 tons of cargo for here,
chiefly Japanese foodstuffs. Her
through cargo is a very valuable one.
