Toe I'ioonser Wine Liquor Hou-a. and 25 King near Bethel Si With many prominent people aboard, all laden with tela, the steamer Ala meda sailed for San Francisco shortly before 5 o'clock last evenins. Medical Inspection of the numerous steerage passengers was the cause of the delay, the gangway being drawn up promptly at 4. and the boat lay at the wharf while the doctors finished thetsork. There were a number of people of note on the rteamer. both from Hono- lulu and returning to the coast. Patrl- erch Alexander Smith, one of the rulers f the Church of Latter Day Saints, and the son of the prophet. Joseph Smith, was a passenger. He has been in Honolulu for the past two weeks, and is un his way to his home in Iowa, from a missionary tour nmontr the people of Australia and the South Seas.

I A Lowrle and family also accompanied them. Mr. Lowrle is going to take a position as sugar boiler on the same I plantation. O. D. Stanford, a son of the renown ed English musician, was ulso an out going passenger. There were 11 steerage passengers aboard, the greater part of whom were Japanese on their way to Southern Cal ifornia, where they were promised good wages by smooth agents. It was re ported that a final effort would be made to deter the Japs from the Journey, but thy had already booked and paid their i way. and tnere was no stopping mem I at ih- dock. The Alameda left a day ahead of the schedule time, so that she may be put in dry dm k at San Francisco, where she will he cleaned. THE DIRIGO HAS HAWAIIAN CREW NEW CARRIAGE OlVt Jl Wilder Wight Has Shipped Aboard! Her Third Mate. as The good ship Dirigo. which is an chored outside awaiting a breeze, has a full crew of native Hawalians aboard. This, however, is not the only thing which makes the voyage of the Dirigo of peculiar interest to Hawaiians. Aboard the vessel as third mate is Wilder Wight, a young man who is well and favorably known in local shipping circles. He is the son of Pres ident Wight of the Wilder Steamship Company, and this is by no means his first sea experience. The young man has Just returned from San Francisco, where he has been studying law at the University of California, and he intends to add to his knowledge of maritime law by actual contact with the sea. The trip around the Horn will require about five months, after which Wight will return from New York either by rail or by steamer. Captain Goodwin is a firm believer in the Hawaiian as a sailor, and he has selected a crew of natives that is bound tn make a name in the voyage around the Horn. The men were picked by the captain himself, despite the attempted interference of shipping agents, and he is satisfied that his crew will giw good service. The Hawaiians aboard are also congratulating themselves on the fact that Wilder Wight will go along a their third officer, which accounts in a measure for their willingness to ship with Captain Goodwin. The Dirigo finished loading sugar for New York at the railway wharf yes terday afternoon, and will be away with the first favorable wind.

The auctioneer was on ; hand and so was the boat, but no bid- ders came forward. ' hugh a large . crowd of tne curious was In attendance. The sale was pot;i .1 until Satur day, and in the meantime some other arrangements for the sale may be made. Supt. Boyd, to whom was re- I f erred by the Board of Health the offer from the Hawaiian Navigation Com- I pany to sell the vessel for $12,000. In turn submitted the matter t Attorney General l : the superintendent , doubting his authority to purchase the , venst-l. The appropriation provided that a new steam venoel should be pur chased, and Boyd did not think that the Eclipse niled the bill. The Attorney I General, however, takes a different I view of the matter, and holds that the .tiisoline iwhooner would come within I the meaning of the act passed by the I legislature. It Is possible that the sale I of the vessel to the Board of Health may bo consummated, in which case ; she will be used for the government trafn- between Kalaupapa and the oth er Island ports. At present the con tract Is held by the Wilder Steamship t'ompany. and there has always been more or less disagreement between the Board or Health and the company. The acquisition of the Eclipse would solve a good many difficulties, which the Board ft Health now has to contend with. Island Steamers Sail The Kinuu and the Nveau got away at noon yesterday for Hawaii and Maul porta There were seven passen gers on board the Klnau book, d for the volcano, and several more will probably make the trip if the volcano is in eruption when th.-y arrive.

By the use of a pulley the UM n. r.fter a long and hard fight, man aged to get the animal on the ganK u hen she gave up the struggle, and followed her leader without more ado. United States Marshal Hendry was a passenger aboard the Hall. He is go ing to Steele to release the property of the Sing Kee Co.. a bankrupt, in which a settlement has be.n made, and the I suit discontinued. Does Wo: Believe She Floats. President Wight of the Wilder Com pany Is of the opinion that tin- Fannie Kerr is no longer afloat, if she had leaden pipes leading from her Hoset to the water. If this was the ase he thinks that the pipes, melting by rea son of the great heat, would permit the water to enter, so that eventually the snip would fill and sink.
