A year ago the various unions of
plumbers, carpenters, painters, electri
cal workers, bollermakers and masons
were firmly organized, and turned out
for parade in large numbers and had
speeches galore, followed by a grand
ball in the evening. Since last year's
Labor Day there has been an exodus
of the white members of the organiza
tions and there Is little more than a
nucleus left this year. "Work began to
slack up toward the end of last year,
and every steamer for the coast which
could take passengers carried numbers
of skilled workers away to other places
where work was more plentiful. The
Journeyman Plumbers' union was the
first to feel the result of the exodus,
then the carpenters', and finally the
masons' organization. The painters
union is not materially weakened, as a
large number of the brush-wielders are
Hawalians. The result has been that

Wealthy Lady on Australian Liner
Tcils Something About
Rhodes.
Mrs. Grewer, an elderly lady, reputed
to be worth millions, passed through
Honolulu yesterday on the Aorangi.
Mrs. Grewer lives in Kimberly, South
Africa, and during the siege of that
place by the Boers, was boxed up there.
She had an interesting time of it, and
says that her most pleasant recollection
of the siege was the part that the late
Cecil Rhodes played in affairs during
its progress.
Rhodes, according to Mrs. Grewer,
was the life of the town, not because
of his joviality, but because of his
grumbling. She gives a graphic de
scription of the famous siege, but this
contains nothing strikingly new aside
from her stories of Rhodes. She says
that the African empire maker's health
commenced to get poor during the siege
and that the fact that he went through
that siege took off at least ten years
of his life.
At the first report of war Rhodes was
happy, but as soon as the diamond city
was surrounded by Boer commandos
Rhodes became uneasy. He thought
that the Boers had things fixed In such
a way that all his plans for a great
future for South Africa had been spoil
ed. His work of years he considered
to be in a fair way on the road to ruin.
Then he started to drink himself to
death.
The great man became stern and
selfish. He supplied to the besieged
anything that he could from the stores
of the Kimberly mines, but at the same
time declared that he would make the
British government pay for every item.
Mrs. Grewer is reputed to have made
a large amount of money through oper
ations on the diamond fields. She is
now well advanced in age but declares
that she will return to South Africa
