: Two days after leaving the Falk-
land Islands for Honolulu, we again
met with some nasty weather. A sue
/ cession OF fierce gales caused the loss
of more sails, besides other damage
( being done the ship. ! again put back
to Port Stanley, and six days follow
Z ing my arrival made the third attempt
to clear the port for the Hawaiian
! Islands.
/ ave met with heavy weather for
the greater part of the voyage from
the Falklands to the equator. From
the line to Honolulu the voyage has
been characterized by almost contin-
nous Gains. There has been little
wind. and we were twenty-five days
in covering the distance from the line
| to Honolulu.
Skipper JosseIyn Much Travelled.
Captain Josselyn holds the record
| for being the most travelled navigator
TO enter this port.
According to his series Of interest
/ ing logs, maintained with precision
and filed on board his ship, Captain
| Jbsselyn has completed ffty-eight
trips around the Horn. He has COM
pleted twenty-five trips around the
Cape of Good Hope. He has been
FIVE times around the world.
He has been going to sea for over
| SO years and during all that time
has been identified with but six yes
sells.
He claims to have served under FIVE
captains, and a strange coincidence
was that four of them finally went in
sane. Captain Josselyn is a great be-
lever in the gospel of industry, and
he points out that idleness will drive
many good man crazy.
The appearance of the bark Nuuanu
shape, despite the terrible encounter
! street wharf this morning plainly m
dicates that men kept at work. are not
always happy but far more contented.
The vessel shows that much care and
attention is daily exercised
The Nuuanu was in every way ship
shape, despite the terrible encounter
with the elements down in the south
seas.
Kuuanu Developed Two Romances.
v4here ARE two sailor men on board
| the Nuuanu, who were more than de-
lighted to receive large accumula-
ton of mail upon arrival this morning
They are said to have completely lost
their hearts to a pair of pretty maid
ems, residents of Port Stanley.
In the far southern city, where a
little colony of eight hundred English,
Scottish, and Irish colonists and set
tiers are making their home, two or
the sailor lads met and fell in love
with two wealthy daughters of one of
| the largest sheep growers in the Falk-
lands. AWa
That weddings will follow the re
turn of the men with the bark at New
York was freely predicted on board
this morning.
Captain Josselyn was an interested
participant in the ceremonies attend
ant on the installation of wireless tele-
graphy in the Falklands. At the re-
/ quest of the Governor the American
Nlkipper was invited to ATTEND the
/ gathering. In speaking of the cere-
: mony this morning the Yankee skip
/ per said that the laying of the corner
stone in the foundation or the big
wireless tower was done on one of
! the most disagreeable days with a ter
i rife gale blowing from the north and
throwing tremendous seas over the
cliffs of the rock bound island shores.
/ Say Cargo Is Not Damaged.
| It is stated on board that the cargo
; brought out from New York in the
: Nuuaru is not damaged, despite the
terrible handling the vessel has met
/ with during the almost year passage
/ from the east coast
/ A general survey will follow the dis
charge of this freight at Richard
street wharf.
The cargo is consigned to the
agency of T. H. Davies & Company.
Big bundles of mails including let
I tiers, papers and packages were sent
/ to the Nuuanu upon her arrival this
morning. There was not a member in
the crew of twenty of more men that
! did not draw one to. score of mis-
sives from home and friends.
/ Captain Josselyn was the recipient
o. an armload of correspondence that
had accumulated at the port during
his long absence.
