NEVADA CITY, CALIFORNIA, FRIDAY EVENING, JUNE 29, 1894,
enone
Established Sept. 6, 1860, by N. P. Brown & Co,
visemes) PEARL HARBOR,
Protected by Sharks and Turtles and Likely,
to Be the Pacifie’s Gibraltar,
No finer trip ont of Honolulu can be
made than to Pearl City by water. The
route is just outside the surf line. A
light boat with a small load may go inside the breakers: So soon as the bout is
fairly’ lieaded for Barber’s point the
sport begins. The water is alive with
monster turtles and big sharks, You
may shoot the former or hook the latter.
Every time the craft gets into the breakers interest in the trip is heightened to
the point that men who like te adventure glory in. Loss of control of the
boat means a ducking, if nothing more,
Mullet flop ont of the water in the old
Kalihi fishing grounds, and when well
into Pearl harbor you pass the famous
shark trap and. more mullet presérves.
Ducks’ fly overhead, and a short distance back from the shore line there are
wild turkeys, pheasants and occasionally apig. Ford’s island is viewed with
interest,
When Pear! harbor is an accomplished fact, with masked batteries at its entrance, the island will have behind its
fortifications the modern mid-Pacific
station of the United States. As an ancient salt plant is passed and the abandoned shark rending kettles noted, the
great Ewa plantation, with its large
mill and wite canefields, melt into the .
scene. Glasses are then trained upon
the splendid ranches of farseeing pioneers, Each holding is a little empire.
Catboats and yachts. going to Pearl river
for fresh water are passed by the launch
as though they were at anchor. At the
landing is tied the yacht Kaiuland, of
whose speed some enthusiast tells. She le
is waiting to be loaded with rice from
the mill with its tramway to the dock.
Ricefields, — taro patches, cocoanut
groves, banana orchards and truck gar-dens on the main land are cut up by
Pearl river and its branches and by irrigating ditches. Natives. sit in the
shade. Chinamen pass up and down the
track of the Oahu Railway and Land
company, newly ballasted. Parties are
bathing, lounging at pretty Remond
grove, with its green carpets and electric plant, at the depot, store or ranchhouse,
A birdseye view of Pearl City and its
surroundings is a treat. It is best had
from‘an elevation in the future metropolis itself. Maukai there glints and
shimmers on the placid surface of Pearl
harbor, deep, woellsheltered and with
room enough for every warship afloat.
Past its throat rolls the grand Pacific,
the friendly oceah, pleasant in itself as
it is in dreams of conquest. On the Ewa
side of the observatory the ‘‘distant hills
of Waianae,’’ miniature mountains,
have’ the inviting tinge of ‘distance.
Barber’s point is low. -Tho lookont can
sweep the sea for miles beyond the peninsula ‘and announce the approach. of
any vessel. On the Waikiki side Honolulu, with its trees and spires, its smokestacks and masts, seems very close. Rugged Diamond head, which grows upon
every beholder, has at 14 miles a better
defined shape and. sharper outline than
it affords with a closer view. Again the
sentinel may command the sea for miles
“upon miles. The background of-all this
is.a range of hills from which a watcher
can scan almost the entire island. It is
all a magnificent panorama that can be
taken in at a glance.
t
Pearl City is quite alittle place. ‘It is
laid off in wide avenués and large lots.
There are stores, residences and a couple of small hotels, In the valleys back
are the pineapple ranches, every one a
success. The waterworks of the railroad
company are prominent, and the courthouse tells of the domain of the law.
The location for a city is admirable, —
Hawaiian Star.
Cleopatra’s Pearl, ;
Readers will easily call to mind the
story which is told of Cleopatra, to illustrate her luxurious habits of living, that
she dissolved in her wine a precious
pearl. No one seems yet to have questioned what must have m the effect
upon the drink, but Mr. Lewes questions quite .pointedly the possibility of
such solution.
We are very sheep in our gregariousness of error. When one bdld or stupid
mutton takes a leap, all leap after him.
It is rare to find men doubting facts,
still rarer to find them doubting whether
the facts be correctly co-ordinated. Our
books are crowded with unexamined
statements, which we never think of examining. :
Do we not all believe -that the magnificent Cleopatra, regardless of expense,
dissolved in Her wine cup a pearl of
great price as if it had been a lump of
sugar? Is not the ‘‘fact’’ familiar toevery one? Yet, if you test it, you will find
the fact to be that pearls are not soluble
in wine. The most powerful vinegar attacks them but very slowly and never
entirely dissolves them, for the organic
matter remains behind in the shape of
a spongy mass larger than the original
pearl. —Youth’s Companion.
Shocking Bigotry.
The Rev. Dr. Gunsaulus tells a story
of two New: England old ladies who
were overheard in conversation to the
following effect: ‘
“Hey you met that Miss Perkins
et?’ :
f ‘*Yes; I was interduced to her yesterday.”’ :
“To what sect does she belong?’ .
“‘To the Universalist sect, I believe.
“To the Universalist sect? An what
is their belief?’’
“They believe that all human souls
svill eventually, by the grace of God,
be redeemed. ”’
“Oh, they do, do they? What bigotry !’’—Chicago Record.
Hubby’s Appreciation, “
She—Now, dear, I’ve seen to
whole dinner myself. Is everything just
as you like it? And, dear, did you get
the theater tickets? :
He—The dinner is simply perfect,
and toshow you how I te it
