' In Skaguay I romainod for ton months working in a thoatro. I did a 'coon turn' with Schwartz and then wont back to Soattlo, ' landing there with $50 in my pockets. , " i was thoro whon Soapy Smith, a frioud of mine, was shot. I was rustling beor on tho floor of tho thoatro when Soapy Smith ran past with a Winchester. I know there was going to bo troublo. Alter tho shooting men rushed up and down tho streets with Win chesters and revolvers. It was tho roughest place I wrb over in. " From Soattlo I went to Kont and worked on a farm for some 1 time. Then I wont Im.-k to Seattle 1 and stowed awtiy in ihe City of Columbia. When ihn bontswain found mo in tho forecastle, ho caught mo by tho back and used mo very roughly, saying all the while ho would 'keel-haul' me. It didn't turn a hair of my head. Then I wont to the captain. Well, tho long anu sunn oi u is iiiui x was mado to work vory hard and at tho eud waB locked up. " I like the country well onongh what littlo I've soon of it.

Something About Recently Arrived "Steerage Passengers" Men of Yarlous Industries What They Can Do. Mn. Editoii: Tho iutorost wo tako in tho cultivation of tho soil and our connoction with the Bureau of Agriculturo brings us a number of callers from tho ranks of tho much-talked of stoor ogo passongors arriving iu Hono lulu of lato nud, in justico to thoso strangers, wo desire to say that wo aro agrooably surprised to find that all thoso we havo had the ploaBiiro to meet, aro intelligent, clear hoadod, progrossivo mon. Amongst thorn nro fruit growers, fruit packers, prcservois, confoo tiouors, brick makors, mechanics, larmors ana agricultural exports, and canners. Thoro is certainly more room for cannors, brick makors and agricultural oxports at this timo in Hawaii than thero is for moro lawyers aud dootors. Most of tho mon who havo arrived recontly havo money, tools and soeds and somo camohoro to mako observations for capitalists iu tho East and Wost. A mau cortainly should not bo blackballed or suoerod at bocauso ho happeus to arrive iu tho stoorago. Somo of our most thrifty and woll-to-do Honolulu mechanics como nud go as stoorago passungors, ns thoy oauuot make $50 a wook oasior. Ouo of tho fruit men desires to start n modern cannory for tho preserving of tropical and semi tropical fruit and vecotablos. Such a factory would provo of in ostimnblo vuluo to small fruit growors nnd would give employ ment to nativo boys anu girls. Why should wo not have a fac tory of this kind on each island' A fow industries of this kind would bo of moro value to Hilo thau a half dozon fruit carrying steamers. Look ovor tho report of tho Collector of Customs and see tho amount of canned goods wo import pickles, jams, jollies and canned goods ot all kinds. Tho export of chutnoy nlono from Liongal and Calcutta is more thau our wholo coffeo export. Wo havo here all tho ingrodients for mak ing chutney-tamarinds, mangoes, poppers, onions nud torantoes. For the fiscal year, ending Juno 30, 189G, thero wus imported into tho United Htatos, 11,900,700 pounds of figs, valued at thej port of export, at $039,512 Tho figs aro sold at auction iu Now York from nine to twenty - five couts per pouud. Assuming that tho nvorage sum paid was ton cents per pound, tuo amount paid tlio oxporters in foroiuu couutrios for lies would nverago about 1,200,000 a year. Iuib amount of 1ms could ho grown in Waianao, Waialua, Wai mea and Kahuku mountains, uu- dor proper conditions. It would bo a low estimato to say tiiut one million dollars' worth of figs for homo consumption, stuumers, men-of-war aud shipping genorally would bo used. Who would not eat figs at tivo cents per pound ? Fig troes produco two crops of a year in Hawaii. A fig treo neods but littlo caro. Bugs aud othor jests keep away from tho treos. Birds are tho groatest ouomy. Tobacco is ouo of our most pro misery industries. Thoro is no tobacco grown iu Cuba but what could be raised in Hawaii uuder propor conditions. Waiinoa valley is tho homo of tho whita mulberry troo, upon which tho silkworm feeds. Tho wondorful prospority of tho silk iudustry in tho Uuitod States in dicatos tho prosperity of its peo ple. Tho vnluo of tin production of silk fabrics iu tho United Stntoswill roach 110,000,000. Iu 189S, tho silk toxtilu iudustry of America greatly exceeded that of France, which has for a long while beon tho loading producor of silk goods. A. U.
