To the Editor of the Pacific Com
mercial Advertiser Dear Sir: Hav
ing recently discharged a cargo of lum
ber for the American Sugar Company
in the port of Kaunakakai, I would beg
leave to say a few words about the
place for the information of any who
may be interested therein.
Within the 3-fathom line the har
bor is about oOO yards in length in the
direction of north northeast and south
southwest, and its narrowest place
within the C-fathom curve is over
200 yards; at the entrance it is fully
300 yards. Sailing vessels from the
eastward should come through the
Pailolo channel between Maui and Mo
lokai, following the edge of the out
lying reef, which is an average dis
tance of nearly a mile from the shore.
The new wharf recently constructed
will serve to indicate the position of
the harbor. There is a fair-way buoy
lying about T00 yards south southwest
erly compass from the center of the
entrance, and on the end of the reef
on each side of the entrance is placed
a buoy. The edge of the reef inside
of the harbor is also well marked by
buoys, two of which may be used for
hauling v ssels in or out or for moor
ings. These buoys have been placed
by Mr. Center, the manager of the
American Sugar Company's planta
tion, and are a great convenience. But
for still greater convenience to sailing
vessels a buoy should be placed fur
ther out than the present out mooring
buoy, for vessels to hang on to get
under way from. There should also
be two buoys with light moorings on
jthe western side ot the harbor tor ves
sels to steady themselves hauling in
or out of the harbor, and to prevent
! being drifted onto the eastern side of
(the harbor by ithe constantly varying
i winds of the early morning. And for
the safety of large vessels there
should be some strong stern
mooring laid down, to prevent
them from sheering all around the har
bor in the case of being caught inside
during a southwest gale. I
A sailing vessel bound to this place
should reduce sail before coming close
to the harbor, as the trade winds blow
here generally with the force of half
a gale. The fair-way buoy can be
passed on either side, but a sailing ves
sel should preferably pass close to
windward of it and between it and a
buoy marking the end of the reef on
the eastern side of the harbor. The
vessel should be hauled up heading
north northeast, passing the line of
buoys on the eastern side of the harbor
within twenty-five yards, and when the
vessel is about 100 yards from the out
er end of the new wharf, the port
anchor should be dropped with a range
of fifteen fathomsallowing the vessel
to swing head to wind. Then run a
strong line from the stern of the ves
sel to the inner end of the wharf
and haul the vessel alongside. But be
fore hauling the vessel alongside, or
i giving her more chain on the port an
chor, it will be found that by hauling
the vessel stern to the wharf and
broadside to the wind her head will fall
off into a favorable position for drop

,'to the wharf, paying out on both chains
! enough for allowing the vessel to come
'alongside. Good ropes are required to
make fast to the wharf. The vessel
.will then have sixty fathoms on
anchor, bearing south, and about
fathoms on starboard anchor
southwest. The wharf is
imperiled, but it is my opinion that a
vessel with good ground tackle would
safely ride out a strong southwest gale
in the harbor of Kaunakakai and there
no other wind that would hurt a
vessel if properly moored.

Inspector uf Immigrants Finds
Fever on Some Plantations.
Dr. Peterson speaks highly of the ar
rangements made at Paauilo by Man
ager Lydgate, and believes that if his
original plan was adopted by the man
agers throughout the country there
would be less langer of sickness. On
some of the sugar estates Dr. Peterson
has found a goodly number of fever
cases due to improper sanitary ar
rangements. He has recommended
changes which will have to be made.

and direction of the waste waiter flow
is such that it is considered by him a
healthy locality. Hawaii Herald.
A MOTHER TELLS HOW SHE
SAVED HER LITTLE DAUGH
TER'S LIFE.
I am the mother of eight children
and have had a great dea or expen
ence with medicines. Last summer
my little daughter had the dysentery
in its worst form. We thought she
would die. I tried everything I could
think of. but nothing seemed to do
her any good. I saw by an advertise
ment in our paper that Chamberlain's
Colic, Cholera and .Diarrhoea Remedy
was highly recomm'ended and sent and
got a bottle at once. It proved to be
one of the very best medicines we
ever had in the house. It saved my
little daughter s life. I am anxious for
every mother to know wnat an excel
lent medicine it is. 'Had I known it at
first it would have saved me a great
deal of anxiety and my little daughter
much suffering. Yours truly, MRS.

ern side of the harbor; it is about 150
feet in length by fifty feet in width.
There is nineteen feet alongside at
ilow tide, and the bottom is soft mud.
(This wharf is continued towards the
! shore by a narrower one, which is
'about twenty feet wide for a distance
jof about 150 feet and there is about
sixteen feet alongside this part of the
i wharf. This is very suitable for the
! Island steamers when a sailing vessel j
I may be lying at the larger wharf. This
; wharf is still further continued towards
'the shore by a line of three-pile trestle-
work, which is connected to the shore
by a very substantial stone embank
ment. This forms the roadbed of the
American Sugar Company's plantation
'railroad, and when all the connections
are inivde, it will be possible to do
better work in discharging vessels
than can be done under present condi
tions in Honolulu. It is intended to
(run the cars right alongside the ves
Isels at the wharf. There are no pilots
the place, doubting his ability to get
his vessel into the harbor, should lay
off and on, when the manager of the
plantation may send his boatman out
to assist the vessel into the harbor.
My opinion about the safety of the har
bor is that during the months from
April to October inclusive it is as safe
as the harbor of Honolulu; the months
from November to March inclusive,
when the trade winds are sometimes
interrupted for two or three weeks at
'a time, are not so favorable for the
