CEO. W. DE LONG POST, C. A. R., OF
HONOLULU, IN SAN FRANCISCO.
Mr. R. W. Laine returned by the
steamer Australia this morning, and
speaks in raptures of the treatment
accorded to him by the people at
the Coast, and not only to him, as
the reprcsenlatiTe of Geo. XV. I)e
Long Post, but to all the G. A. R.
boys, their families, "cousins and
their mints." Everything that will
ing hands and oversowing hearts
could do was done, and the 20th
National Encampment of the G. A.
R. will long be remembered as the
best thing on earth! The gavel sent
by the Post hero to the commander-in-chief,
was presented to him by
Department Commander W. R.
Smedburg in his happiest manner,
and accepted by Comrade Burdett
in a few well chosen remarks, in
which he complimented Hawaii nci.
The Hawaiian flag which Comman
der Laine took with him was carried
in the grand procession by Comrade
W. E. Smith, and was accorded the
post of honor with Lincoln Post, and
at a meeting subsequently was don
ated to Lincoln Post by Commander
Laine, from Geo. W. De Long Post,
and in accepting it the commander
paid a high compliment to the Post
and the comrades of the "advanced
picket guard of the G. A. U.." and
it was accorded the post of honor in
the hall. This wus the (list time the
flag of Hawaii was seen in the streets
of San Francisco, and was received
with cheers all along the line.
THE BASEBALL MATCH.
LAST OF THE SEASON"
The last baseball match of the
Honolulu League for the season of
188G was played on Saturday after
noon. There wos a goodly assem
blage of spectators, and Mr. Hart
was on hand, as usual, with ice
cream and cooling drinks. A
miserable match was played. It
was twice interrupted by brisk
Bhowers, and there was a lackadaisi
cal air about the play of the losing
club, which threw a haze of gloom
over the diamond. The Benedict
received as bad a beating as the
Hawaii on the previous Saturday.
Honolulu had its old team, with one
or two exceptions, Morton, of tho
Hawaii, playing instead of Mark
ham, off on his honej'moon. The
teams were: Honolulu Wode
house, Oat, Whitney, Moore, Thurs
ton, Low, Castle, Parker and Mor
ton ; Benedict Clias. Wilder, Irish
man, J. Winter, Chan. Wilder,
Lyons, F. Winter, Booth, Spencer
and Wall. The match collapsed
with the sixth inning, when Hono
lulu, which was not whitewashed at
all, had 18 runs; and the Benedict,
whitewashed four times, had 1.
Honolulu went first to bat, and
Wodehouse, Oat, Moore, with a
three-base hit, and Thurston scored.
In tho second inning, Morton,
Wodehouse and Whitney scored ;
third, Castle ; fourth, Wodohouse,
Oat, Moore with a two-base hit, ami
Thurston; fifth, Wodehouse and
Oat; sixth, Thurston, Castle,
Parker and Morton.
For tho Benedict, J. Winter mado
the first run, in the fourth inning;
and Spencer, Chas. Wilder and
Lisliman scored in tin: fifth, r .
Winter took Willi's place as pitcher
in the fifth inning, somewhat to the
embarrassment of the Honolulus be
fore they caught on to his style ;
hut whatever advantage was gained
by this swapping of horses in the
stream was lost in the new pitcher's
erroneous throwing to bases. The
Honolulus should not have scored
so heavily, hud tho fielding of their
opponents been at all prompt and
precise.
Mr. Henry Kala umpired the
game very judiciously, and Mr.
Gardner Wilder kept the score.
The following summary of the
season shows the number of games
won and lost by each of the leaguo
clubs:

A TRIP TO HILO, AND THE SUNDAY
SCHOOL CONVENTION.
Reader, do you know what it
means to go with a huge crowd of
natives to the other islands? It
mentis lots of trouble to take all
their baggage and food, satchels and
trunks, poi and fish, blankets and
boxes for finery, etc., etc.
Well, everything has its end, so
after a little delay, oil got on board,
nnd off we went. Hut, alas I the
good steamer Klniiu stopped again.
What is the matter now? Well, the
matter is this; one of our consuls,
the representative of n mighty na
tion, missed the time, and the
steamer was off the wharf before
the good consul of this great nation
knew it, nnd of course us he had to
get on shore, or there might be
another complication of a political
nature, thu mighty consul of the
great nation must be got on shore.
So after a little tossing to and fro,
shouting and growling, the good
consul of the great nation succeeded,
and off we are once more.
Now, if wo had been in old Greece,
everybody would have been rather
scared, the oracle would have been
summoned, and the gods asked if
we could proceed on our voyage
after such a serious break. But us
we are in Hawaii nei we did not con
sult the kahunas, and went on.
The shore battery pealed out the
royal salute for Princess Lilluoka
lani from the mighty cannons, and
wo felt big, very. Mind you, it is
no small item to be saluted as we go
to tho other islands: we felt very
proud.
Soon Neptune seriously demanded
his offering, as the usual custom is,
and of course he got it perhaps
more than he bargained for. But
it was no uc to fight hiin, and all,
more or less, answered his call.
The weather was beautiful. Not
withstanding we preferred to lie
down. The dinner bell had no
charm for us, and we dozed along
till we reached Lahaina. There we
took our night cap a cup of coffee
or tea and went on. Soon reached
Maalaea, and then Makcna. Get
ting tired as the time advonced, nt
nearly 1 o'clock in the morning we
all turned in, partly to avoid tho
dangers of the Alenuiliaha and
partly to get a sleep.
At daylight we reached Mahu
kona, took a hearty breakfast, and
viewed the busy place. Next to
Honolulu, Mahukona, thanks to Mr.
S. G. Wilder's energ', is the live
liest place on all the islands. The
railroad adds greatly to the scene.
Here we took about 100 Sunday
school children aboard, and after a
few hours' stay started for Kawai
hae. Kawaihae is a desolate looking
country. Still there is good fish to
be got there. The loyal natives
brought lots of food, fish, pork,
sugar cane, etc., as offerings to the
Piincess. Here we took aboard
more Sunday school people, and off
we went. Passed Mahukona again,
saluted by steam whistles.
Now we came to pass the most
beautiful scenerv on the Hawaiian
Islands ; I mean the coasts of Ko
hala, Hamakua, and Ililo. It is be
witching. The afternoon was lovely,
which added to the indescribable
beauty of the natural objects within
the range of vision. We took it all
in. The mighty waterfall, the small
rivulet, the immense valleys of
Wniinanu and Waipio, the rolling
plains of Xakuihaele and Honokaa,
sugar cane and sugar mills, little
hamlets and stately residences, and
above all towering the grand moun
tain of Maiiuakea, pouring its con
densed II Li i cl down the val-s and
plains, making everything look green
nnd cheerful.
The waterfalls are numerous. We
counted 27 on this coast. And most
of that beautiful water runs to waste
jn the great sea, where there is al
ready so much. Hardly use for any
more. But such is nature. What
a wholesome benefit would this water
be in Kona, Kau, and Puna, where
it is at present very dry. But as
there is no visible means to amend
nature, we have to let it run its
course.
The coast is very rough and land
ings very dangerous. Human skill
has invented all kinds of contrivances
to make landing as good ns it is
under the circumstances. In gen
eral thoy use the swinging crane,
with a box attached. At Paauhau
several ladies came off with' appar
ent case.
Wo reached Laupahoehoe about o'
o'clock in the afternoon. A grand
sight. Here they utilize the water
as a cane-carrier. Tho cane is grown
on n Hat above, and the mill is be
low at the water's edge. Numerous
Humes in all directions bring the
cane down. The Humes of dark
color against tho steep bluffs look
like filigree work from the steamer's
deck.
Wo aro off again. This time
direct for Ililo. The daylight fades
away. On our right wo can see the
dark cliffs, occasionally broken by
the lights of the plantations. To
our left is tho vast Pacific ocean.
The moon, almost full, sheds her
beautiful light over all, and every
body feels delighted with tho pros
pect of being soon on shoro.
Hllo, as usual, greeted tho royal
vibitor with a Hinurt shower of rain,
just enough to mnko it unpleasant.
All Hllo was on the wharf to receive
the Princess. A salute of 21 guns
was fired, fireworks ami hurrahs
filled the air. Everybody soon
reached their quarters, and went
merrily to bed.
Next morning was beautiful.
Numerous parties ou horseback
. ..... , . .., i
oomo to attend the Sunday school
festival. Hllo was gay. Tho Band
struck up at the residence of Her
Royal Highness, and the loyal peo
ple paid their respects. In the
evening the Band played at the
court house yard, to the delight of
everybody. An immense crowd was
present.
The following day active prepara
tions were continued for the ap
proaching festival. Hllo people had
collected a geneious sum of money
to feed all the visitors and the Sun
day school people. Mr. Nawahi,
Mr. Rrowu, and others, had made
arrangements to satisfy everybody,
and there was no hitch.
Thursday was rather showery.
Band playing, and in the evening a
grand conceit at the llaill church,
for the benefit of the Sundnj' School
Association. A crowded house, and
a good sum realized. The pro
gramme was good ; not too long ;
one hour and n half about. The
hulics-in-wniting of Her Royal High
ness added materially to the concert
by singing several beautiful duets.
The Band also assisted. The Ililo
choir made good hits.
Fridny, as usual. Invitations
wcie out from Mr. Scott and his
charming lady for a reception to
Her Royal Highness in the evening.
Mr. Scott is thu successful manager
of Wainaku plantation. He has just
built a new residence, beautifully
located ou a slope. Wainaku is
about two miles from Ililo. The
road is good, though hilly. As
there were but few expresses, some
had to go on plantation mule teams.
My dear reader, if you never went
on a mule team, you don't know
what fun it is. As theie arc no
springs, you get the full benefit of
every stone in the road. Well, all
went merrily, although the rain
marred the pleasure somewhat.
Everybody felt jolly, particularly
the young folks, after a nice dance
as a finale.
Saturday came. This was "the
day we celebrate." From early
morning groups of people moved
towards llaill church, to get a good
seat. The church was tastefully
decorated. The building is large
and cool, roomy and has good
acoustic properties. There were
present about 1,000 people inside,
and perhaps from 200 to U00 out
side. All good-natured and ordeily.
The meeting was called to order,
and the first general hymn sung,
accompanied by the Band. A good
effect. Rev. Mr. Forbes, of Hono
lulu, offered the prayer. Then camo

school, neatly and tastily dressed.
A little girl was the prompter.
No. 17. Sunday school from
Ilakalau 8 members They march
ed up the aisle singing. Both the
declamation and the music were
creditable. One little girl showed
special smartness.
That was the last of the schools,
and everybody was now on the tip
toe of expectation as to which should
get the prize, a splendid silver water
pitcher, which Her Royal Highness
had donated for the best school of
the convention.
The Rev. Mr. Forbes stood up
and made an appropriate speech, in
which he said that it was very hard,
where there were so many good
schools, and none positively bad, to
select tlie best. The committee had
had considerable difficulty in decid
ing, particularly between Kahei and
Kalapaua, but had concluded to
award the prize to tho latter.
Now came the hurrah. Kalapaua
felt proud. The teacher mounted
the platform' and thanked the Prin
cess and the committee, and the
triumphant school gave another
splendid chorus. The audience rose
and sang Hawaii Pouoi, and then
went home feeling happy.
It was now nearly (5 o'clock,
which means that the exercises had
lasted close upon eight hours, in
one continuous stretch, barring one t
short intermission for lunch, lhe
whole was a grand success, from
beginning to end.
In the evening was a well-attended
concert for the benefit of the Baud
boys. It netted about 8100. The
programme was good. Of course,
the Band took best.
Sunday was quiet. Church as
usual. Weather rainy.
On Monday the Band started
early to play a fine programme at
the Princess's residence. In the
afternoon Her Royal Highness went
to Cocoanut Island, with a company
of ladies and gentlemen, and had u
good lime. In tho evening the
Band played nt the court house, to
the delight of everybody.
Tuesday morning the Band sere
naded the Princess, and in tho after
noon Mr. C. Arnold gave a lunch
party to Her Royal Highness. The
Band was in attendance. The
weather was very close. Invitations
were out for a musical and literary
entertainment by the Shakespearian
Society at the residence of Mr.
Severance in the evening. Mr.
Severance and his good lady under
stand just how to make such under
takings a success. Tho large rooms
and wide verandahs make it easy to
accommodate many people. The
Princess aud tho elite of the city
were present. Tho Band played a
cholco selection for about an hour,
nud then the company moved inside.
The music, rending and tableaux
wero of a high older. Mr. Fur
neaux and Mrs. Huuford added
materially to tho success of tho
evening. Mr. Burt distinguished
himself by reciting a line poem.
Refreshments were served, and then
the young folks took the floor, tho
indefatigable Berger at tho piano.
It was past midnight when the last
lancers were called. Everybody
went home delighted, and thanking
the host and hostess for tho good
time they had had.
Wednesday morning tho Band
again, as usual. Mr. and Mrs.
Lymau gave a lunch at their com
modious residence to Her Royal
Highness and suite in the afternoon.
A lovely afternoon, and Mr. and
Mrs. Lyman made It comfortable
for everybody, including the Band.
In the evening came tho farewell
combination concert of all the Sun

an Band, free to everybody, The
house was packed. Good singing
and good playing, Tho Lelnia

Porter, a young Ililo lady, sang
beautifully,'' was very fine. Miss
Annie Rose, daughter of Mr. II.
Rose, played some lino selections on

encored. At last camo Hawaii Po

Thursday was the last day for the
Band. Everybody hurried up to
get ready. The good steamer Ki
nau arrived in the morning early.
All Ililo was sorrv that the cood
people had to leave, but some said
there had been quite enough for
I once. The heavens even cried. In
1 large drops thu tears came down.

disadvantage of commonly called rain, not to the de
day, the people 1,'ght of the motley crowd. All got
wet before reaching the steamer.
Well, goodbye, Ililo!
The homeward trip was delight
ful. Fine weather. Everybody
look once more to tho beauties of
the coasts of Ililo, Hamakun and
Kohala. Stopped as usual at Ka
waihae and Mahukona. Rather
long, but it had to he endured. At
last, after wailing at Mahukona
only nine hours, we steamed off for
Makcna, then Maalaea and Lahainu,
and arrived early on Saturday morn
ing in Honolulu. When we came
near, the cannons peeled out their
royal salute. A large concourse of
people was awaiting on the wharf.
His Majesty the King wns there,
and received his sister, Princess
Liliuokalani, very cordially.
Everybody was pleased to bo
home again. And so ended the trip
to Ililo, and the Sunday School Con
vention. noti:s.
II. R. II. Liliuokalani is the most
charming lady on the islands. Al
ways pleasant, and ready to please
everybody. Never haughty, yet, al
ways dignified.
Ililo fed about 100 people gratis
for a whole week. Everybody got
his tea or coffee every morning and
evening.
The Sunday School people were
well and tastily dressed.
The Band behaved well better
than last time. No gin around.
The singers from the leeward side
sang better that those from tho
windward side.
Ililo would like to sell.somc rain to
Puna and Kau.
Roads occasionally interfere with
religion. More people would havo
come, but you know the roads.
One of the Honolulu boys stole a
gold watch, made a present of it to
his lady-love for a sweet kiss, and
now wears a tti-colored suit for tlie
remainder of the year. Lesson :
Don't kiss, but if you do, do it
cheaper.
Ililo, Hamakua, and Kohalu
coasts arc nowhere surpassed.
A fine table and good things on it
, aboard of the steamer Kinau.
It rains only once n day in Ililo,
i but sometimes two and three times.
The most astonishing fact is, that
so many Hawaiians are singers, and
take interest in it. Rut after all,
glad 'to get home.
