GARDINER'S LITTLE SCHEME,
He Wanted to Send Chinamen to
Honolulu.
FROM TWO TO FIVE EOLLARS A DAY.
A. cry smooth J'Jan Attempted by an
Ardent KoyalUt" Chinese Laborer
Wanted for "Ills Plantation" Per
cy' Latest Iode In the Flowery
Kingdom.
ffiThe communications given be
low were sent tothe Foreign Office
here by the Acting Hawaiian Con-Bul-General
at Hongkong. C. P.
Gardiner, the man mentioned, is
more or less well known here.
Some time ago he was in the em
ploy of T. H. Davies & Co., by
whom he was discharged. He
afterward worked for several other
firms, principally in the capa
city of engineer. He was a very
strong annexationist during the
first part of last January's move
ment, until he found that he could
not get in office under the Provis
ional Government when he imme
diately "switched" and became, as
1 1 it A A. I
ne 13 caiieu in me extract gweu
below, an "ardent royalist." It is
said that when he left here he went
out to China as a subensineer on
one of the China steamers.
The followincr is the letter from
J. J. Keswick :
Hawaiian Consulate General,)
Hongkong, 13th Dec, 1893.
The Honorable Sanford B.Dole
Minister for Foreign Affairs, Ho
nolulu: Sir: T have the honor to forward
herewith for the information of the
Government, a notice in Chinese with
translation, circulated here by a Mr.
Gardiner. I also send two papers with
paragraphs marked in connection with
this man's visit here.
Mr. Gardiuer called at this office
some short time ago, statin?? that he
wished to engage 150 or 200 Chinese to
proceed to Honolulu to work on his
plantations, and was informed that I
could not render him cny assistance
in the way of granting passports and
I have not since seen him.
I believe Mr. Gardiner worked his
passage across from Honolulu in the
engine-room of one of the steamers
belonging to the P. M. S. S. Co. or the
O. and O. S. S. Co. .
I have the honor to be, Sir,
Your most obed'nt servant,
J. J. Keswick,
Acting Consul-Gene ral.
The notice spoken of, translated,
is as follows :
NOTICE.
It is hereby notified that the under
signed agent issues permits to the
Chinese to proceed to the port of
Honolulu in the Hawaiian kingdom.
They are to leave by the first steamer.
The Chinese are only allovred to take
with them their personal effects. They
are not allowed to take other things
with them, otherwise they will have
to pay freight on same. The various
plantations in Honolulu want to em
ploy many Chinese laborers at pres
ent. You Chinese who have not been
to that port, need not fear that you
will get.no work there. You are able'
to make from $2 to S3 daily. If you
have any doubt about my statement,
just inquire of those who have been to
that place, and then you will know
the state of affairs there. With regard
to the Chinese who are engaged this
time, everything is done according to
law, and tnere is no irregularity about
it at all. If any of you Chinese wish
to take your family or relatives with
you to that port, they can have their
passage at reduced rates. The fare (to
Honolulu), including food, doctor's
fees and port charges, is about !lo0.
Ineugagiug the Chinese to go this
time, the undersigned agent has not
much time at his disposal. Therefore,
no permits will be issued after 23d
November.
Sd.l Ka Tina (Gardiner),
Victoria Hotel, Room No. 6.
The 1st December is fixed for the
departure from Hongkong.
Upon arrival at the port, the passen
gers are free to act as they like. They
are not required to sign any contract.
There are trustworthy merchants here
who will receive the passage money
first, and who will sign a bond to the
effect that if the passengers are not
allowed to land, the original amount j
of money will be refunded, and that j
no cash will be taken from them.
Those who are desirous of going to j
Honolulu are requested to apply to i
Taang Honsang, of No. 29, Stanley
street, 1st floor.
Commenting on the above, the
Hongkong Telegraph of November
16th says :
In view of the fact that legislation
in Hawaii has recently been directed
especially to the admission of Chi
nese merchants, laborere, and all
other classes and that a Honolulu
gentleman, Mr. C. P. Gardiner, is
now in Hongkong on business con
nected with the movement, a repre
sentative of the Hongkong Telegraph
called on Mr. Gardiner yesterday,
and was courteously and readily sup
plied with a mass of valuable and in
teresting information having refer
ence to the proposals now under con
sideration. Mr. Gardiner came to Hongkong in
the City of Itio from San Francisco,
having left Honolulu several weeks
ago only a day or two before the
stranding of the Miowera. He has
been for several years a resident of
the Hawaiian kingdom, and takes an
active interests in its politics, bein
well known as an ardent royalists
as, in fact, almost all the British, resi
dents are, while the Provisional Gov
ernment is mainly supported by
Americans, favoring either annexa
tion to the United States or an inde
pendent republic.
A KAUAI WEDDING.
J. B. Alexander and Miss Auhasen
United in Marriage.
The German Lutheran Church of
Lihue was the scene of one of the
AM t 1 a a
prettiest weddings that nas ever
taken place on the "Garden Isl
and," December 28th, 1893, when
Mr. J. B. Alexander and Miss Ce
cilia Auhagen were united in holy
matrimony by Rev. Hans Isenberg.
Promptly at 7 p. m. the bride, in a
cream silk crepe gown trimmed
with satin, her veil crowned with a
myrtle wreath, entered the church
leaning on the arm of Mr. W. H.
Rice, who gave her away. Her
bridesmaid was Miss Buhlert and
the best man Mr. Francis Gay, of
Makaweli. The church was beau
tiiuiiy decorated; on tne organ
masses of pink water lilies and
cosmo heaped in artistic profusion,
the altar was tastefully decorated,
e altar was tastefully decorated,
background of handsome palm
a
leaves set on an enect in pins and
white. The bridal party left the
v , no t i
Church to the Strains Ol tne L0hen-
gnu wcuuiug ujuxuu, injcu uy

and pleasantest of receptions was
afterward held at "Hale Nani,"
given by Mrs. Rice and Mrs. H. Is
enberg, where the couple received
in the drawing-room bay window,
which seemed planned for such an
occasion, under a basket of white
water lilies and maidenhair tied
with satin ribbon. Delicate trail
ing vines twined over tulle curtains
made the loveliest of backgrounds.
Most conspicuous amid the profu
sion of decorations were two panels,
one of delicate ki flowers, the other
pink lilies and ferns, in which Mrs.
Frank Hasting's exquisite taste was
shown to advantage. The sitting-
room was artistically decorated in
every conceivable shade of yellow,
making a striking contrast to other
rooms which there is not space to
describe. After a delicious supper,
and toward the close of the recep
tion, Mr. and Mrs. Alexander left
for their pretty new home, which
was adorned with both costly and
handsome gifts, bearing with them
tne nest wishes ot many sincere
friends for a happy future.
une ana all pronounced tne re
ception the most enjoyable and in
formal event of the season.
White Blood.
It was a Sandwich Islander who,
on the strength of a Mother Hub
bard gown and a parasol, claimed
the deference accorded to members
of a more civilized society.
Most of all did she glory in the
assumption that she was not so
very black, after all.
tl You haven't any white blood in
your veins I saia a cruel mend to
her one day.
"Indeed I have !" indignantly
exclaimed the lady. "Some of my
family helped eat Cap?n Cook."

liev. 2Zr. T7illiama Heartily En
dorses Hood's Sarsaparilla.
We are pleased to present this from
Rev. A. A. Williams, of tfct Sillsbea
street Christian Church, Lynn, Mass. :
M I see no reason why a clergyman, more th&a
layman, 'who knows whereof ho a peaks,
should hesitate to approve an
Article of Merit
and worth, from which he or his family hare
been signally benefited, and whose commenda
tion may serve to extend those benefits to
others by Increasing their confidence. My wife
has for many years been a sufferer from sever
Nervous Headache
for which she found little help. She has tried
pany things that promised well but per
formed little. Last fall a friend gave her a bot
tle of Hood's Sarsaparilla. it seems surpris
ing what simply one bottle could and did do
for her. The attacks of hendache decreased la
number and were less violent in their Inten
sity, whilo her general health has been Im
proved. Her appetite has also been better.
From our experience with
Hood's Sarsaparilla
Z have no hesitation In endorsing ita merit.

Owing to the existence of Scarlet
Fever on the Island of Hawaii, the
Board of Health deems it necessary for
the information of the public to publish
the following:
SIGNS OF SCARLET FEVER.
Scarlet fever first shows itself with
headache, vomiting, sore throat and high
fever. Within twelve or twenty-four
hours, a fine bright scarlet rash appears
on the face and upper part of the body,
soon spreading over the whole surface.
After the third day it fades. After the
eighth day the skin begins to peel in fine
scales on the body often in large flakes
from the hands and feet. This scaling
lasts from four to six weess. Inere is
danger of spreading from the time of the
appearance of the rash until the skin has
entirely peeled off. The flakes of dry
skin are especially dangerous in spread
ing the disease.
Any person showing the early signs
before mentioned should be immediate
ly reported to the Health Officials.
