FINE new CABINS
IN STEAMSHIP
SIERRA

Two new suites, including a large
stateroom with brass bed, have
been been added to the passenger
equipment OF the Oceanic liner Sierra
since that vessel last visited the port
of Honolulu. Four cabins situated on
the lower deck were remodeled to
complete the larger and improved
quarters.
Plans are now made for the install
lation OF four large cabins on the sa-
loon deck, this work to be done while
the Sierra remains at San Francisco.
The prediction is now made that
when the Sierra returns to Honolulu
early in January, the vessel win be
found to possess as luxurious accom-
modations as can be found ON any
steamer engaged In the, trans-Pacifc
service -
At the agency Of C. Brewer & Co.
100 cabin passengers have been
booked for San Francisco on the out
ward voyage, leaving the port at
noon, Saturday. A score or more VIII
take passage in the steerage.
Matsonia Heavily. Loaded.
Before sailing from New York, the
new Matson Navigation liner Matso-
MIA was supplied with cargo and fuel
TO the amount Of $1,000 tons. Nine
thousand tons of freight, all for dis
charge at San Francisco, was placed
aboard. The vessel was given 5000
tons OF fuel oil, believed more than
sufficient to carry the liner from New
York to San Francisco by the way
of Magellan straits. The Matsonia
was to make but one call on the 40
to as day voyage, the liner to put
into Puenta Arenas, or Sandy Point
for orders and to report her position.

the subject. Had any woman of royal
rank been willing to share his throne
1t is certain that he would have mar
ried her at once. But none desired to
marry this parvenu among royalty; he
did not really belong.
All the while he was growing more
and more in love with Mdlle. de Mon
tito, passing hours in her company
and leading her mother to believe that
her daughter might soon become an
empress. His other matrimonial
schemes came to nothing. He felt
that he had been snubbed and more or
less Inundated, yet even then he said
nothing about marriage to the lovely
Eugene. 1t is said that he offered
her a left handed alliance She was
not to be acknowledged as his wife,
but she was to be magnificently pro-
vided for and was to share his heart
if not his throne. But Eugene indig-
nantly refused this offer. She turned
and left him and for a while declined
to receive him, because he had insult
ed her.
| This was the sort of treatment to
make Napoleon yield. He brooded
over her beauty and his love for her
became almost frantic. He asked Eu.
