The Hawaiian star. [volume] (Honolulu [Oahu]) 1893-1912, 1911-06-13

The Mauna Kea returned to port
at daylight this morning, bringing the
excursion party which went out Satur-
day night to Kauai and Maui. She
had sailed from Kahului at 10:30 last
night, and experienced a smooth, I'M
eventful voyage across the intervening
channels.
The excursion, which was person
ally conducted by President James A.
Kennedy, Of the l. l. S. N. Company.
could not have been a greater success
save in that it failed of the support
by the good people of Honolulu which
it deserved. To explain, only 1OG pas
sengers sailed from Honolulu for the
round trip in the Mauna Kea, which,
route, brought the total up to scarcely
more than lis.
The weather was ideal throughout
for the cruise. This was appreciated
most at Waikiki yesterday, where the
visitors were given the opportunity of
touring the beautiful valley at will and
motoring through all of the surround
ing country.

The Mauna Kea got away from her
wharf at ten o'clock Saturday night
and despite the lateness of the hour
large number of people were present
to bid adleu to departing friends. The
course was to the westward, around
the north end OF Oahu, and thence
straight to Nawiliwili. There were
1902 passengers aboard the steamer,
and they sailed as calm sea as has
ever been known in these Islands. The
water was almost as peaceful as That
of a lake, and the great moon, close
to the full, illumined it for miles
and miles at every hand.
A native orchestra started up the
music early and sang until the small
hours. There was not SINCE case
of NAL de mer aboard ship, and the
passengers retired one by one, in fine
health and happy.
Kauai Sunday Morning.

was close at hand and about seven
O'Clock the ships anchor was dropped
