There is a special line built to it ad the main line. 63 miles long, and it is visited bytonrisss from-all parts of the world. We, of course, took the trip. and stayed over. two: days. It is verily a wonderful sight. 1 and (as I wrote in the visitors’ book' coming away), " worth coming all the way from Australia to see.” The first night we are here we allbook‘ for our ride down the great got-go , in, Now. we are landed, and oh I what a sight. What an awful sight. Al- though to-morrow will be the anni- versary of the great di aster, still it appears to us as if itonly happened yesrerday. Though the Americans, with their wonderful activity, energy and perseverance have raised during that short year hundreds of buildings and some of. them immense sky- scrapers. yet there still appears on all sides the awful effects of that dreadful day. For whole blocks on either side are to be seen nothing but one mass of fallen bricks and crump- led up iron. with occasionally the Steel walls of some great sky-scraper standing like a monument amongst its dead comrades. Two days we stay here. when we move south via Santa Barbara to Los Angeles. This latter town is 480 miles south from San Francisco, and is situated in the centre of the great fruit growing dis. tricts of California. All along the. route from ’Frisco can be seen the, great orange groves Stretching for miles on either side, toxether with almost all other fruits of the world. I did not happen to pass through any of the great wheat fields that we hear. so much about, therefore. will have to disappoint a good many of the ‘. Aannf+€anfi’, “Align-A 2‘.- LL- ________ I omitted to mention that we took on Squires at Auckland, and here at Honolulu he is beseiged by an army of press reporters, who board the ship almost before she pulls up at the wharf, and let me tell you right here. as the Americans say, that nothing annoys the genial Bill more than any- thing of this sort. He is without doubt the most unassuming man on the ship. There are several on board beth ladies and gentlemen, who ab- hor the thought of a "brutal prize fight,” and who. after making Squire’s acquaintance, feel almost ashamed of themselves. However, we will now pass Honolulu and Squires over. and imagine yourself with me entering the Golden Gate after a run of eight days. (We were nearly 30 days coming from Sydney, being nine days over time.) Here again is another army of reporters, after Squire’s scalp. sketching him and photographing him on deck. While poor Bill is trying in every conceivable manner to dodge them. His manager (Barney Reynolds) is with him, and hurries him 0E as feet as possible, and as far as possible, from the excited crowd. Anether nine days from here and we arrive at the "Paradise of the Pacific,” Honolulu, but, unfortunate- ly, it is a very cold day (they told us it was the coldest day of the year) and we did n0t see the beautiful place to advantage. I visited the the place sixteen years ago, and where there was a beautiful village on the island is now a great city of Uncle Sam’s. Give me the beautiful little village on the island in preference to the great city. The latter savors too much of the almighty dollar. 5 Starting from Sydney on March ,the 19th. in the Oceanic Steamship Company’s s. 8. Ventura, we had an uneventful run to Auckland, save that it was remarkably slow. We stayed at Auckland 24 hours, but as this is too close to Australia to be :interesting. I will pass it over. An- ‘Other run of eight days from here and we arrive at Pango Pango (pro nounced Page Pago) a beautiful trop- ical island in the Pacific. It is about 11 a. m. on Good Friday as we steam slowly through a narrow inlet, and, oh, what a beautiful sight! On both! sides are to be seen the wild orangel and lemon trees, the cocoanuts and; the bananas growing right from the water’s edge, and as far as we can see right up to the t0p of the moun- tains, apparently from three to four thousand feet in height. The popu- lation of this luxuriant and fertile little island is only some 1500 natives all told. We spent the alternoon here on shore. and Good Friday being a holiday with the Missionary schoms we had the pleasure of seeing a lot of the natives assemble and playing a cricket match. They are very power- fully built, muscular and aetive; neither men nor women wearing,r any thing about the waist. PreVious to our departure (9 p m.) about a dozen native girls came on board and enter. tained us with a dance, which I can not say is even graceful, the whole body, head and arms, being in motion more than the head and feet. (From the Wagga Advertiser, Australia.) Edge Hill. Ont., Canada, 11/5/‘07. According to promise a few days previous to my leaving Australie.~I herewith enclose you a letter for the “ Advertiser.” AN AUSTRALIAN IN CANADA. Letter From Mr. James Bolger. Yours faithfully, JAMES BOLGER. P. S.â€"I omitted to mention (and it may be of interest to AuStralians) that” both here and in the States they are having an unprecedently .long winterâ€"the oldess inhabitant never saw the like before. When leaving Australia I intended arriving here when all the cold weather was over, and never dreamed of seeing snow. but getting out of bed the first morn- ing in Toronto. our little girl. Nellie, came running into the room exclaim- ing: “ Oh, Mama. come here. What’s all this white thing outside." and sure enough it was a heavy fall of snow. Then again. five days later (9 of May), we had anOther still heavier fall in Durham. Before the date is set. by the gov- ernment a deputation from the Com mercial Tr'aveliers’ Association will be herd with respect to chew request that ThankSgiving Day be on 21 Mon- day Ottawa, Aug. 7.-â€"It is probable that ThankSgiving Day this year will be the last Thursday in October.
