On THAT GROUND Hoo Yesterday
was Candlemas day, and of all the days in
tho year we looked forward with eager an
tcipation for that day to be dark with
clouds and gloomy with the absence of
sunshine. We were almost willing that
the snow which fell all day on Tuesday
should continue through Wednesday,
anything, indeed, to prevent that horrible
ground hog seeing his shadow. But he
came, he saw and he conquered. Wednes-
day morning iawned in the most provok-
ing manner possible. The thermometer
had sank during the previous night to 2l'
below zero, the sky was as clear as crystal
and the snow covered the earth deep and
white and pure. No fair lady ever saw
her lovely reflection in the mirror more
distinctly than the ground hog could see
his ugly shadow on the snow that day.
Yes, all day long from the moment the
King of Day first lighted up the snowy
mountain tops until no sank behind the
banks of frozen vapor in the west that
tabled quadruped could view his shadow
and glut over the Polar waves which
would follow each other in quick succession
across our balmy temperate zone. We care
not what Vennor may say about an early
spring, that ground hog is the older and
more reliable prophet, and we are doomed
to six moro weeks of rctic weather Of
which the frigidity OF yesterday morning
was enly foretaste. But we will submit (;
it is useless to fight tate.

Harry Rine, a small son of Mr.. Sam
uel Rine, of this place, met with quite a
remarkable escape from severe injury
while coasting, last Friday afternoon
When descending the steep declivity in
the rear of Mr.. Charles Glenn's photo
graph gallery his sled gained such veloc-
ty that it shot across the street and
then made leap of about fifteen feet into
the cold waters of Spring creek. The sled
reached the bottom of the creek in an up
right position, and Harry was tumbled
into the water, getting dreadfully moist,
but apparently not injuring himself any
One of Postmaster Johnson's sons CHANGED
along just then and helped Harry to climb
up the stone wall, when he scampered
rapidly home after dry clothes. In nine

Shooting cases, " an American euphe-
mism for attempts at willful murder, will soon
be as common in our islands as they are IN the
Western States OF the Union. On Friday of last
week, the Deputy Sheriff of Makawao, Maui,
MIR. E. N. Walsh, whilst arresting a leper,
NEARLY fell a victim TO a shot from a revolver.
Mr.. Walsh's official report on this encounter is
as follows: Yesterday, while out in Kula with
DIR. STANDARD vaccinating, / had occasion to go
near the house of a leper who was said to be
carrying around a shot gun and a revolver, and
who had said he would kill anyone who attemp-
ted to take him. So l took Kahele Ca native
Constable( and went into the house. One of
the rooms was fastened and Kahele said he was
there, 1 told him to open the door, but he did
not; ii was q weak fastening and / pulled it
open. The man was sitting on a bed facing the
door and with a revolver in his hand. l told
him TO put down the revolver, but he only
pointed il al me, and reached for a shot gun. L
then sprang for him but before | could get him
he fired and the ball struck me on the side, pen
etrating my coat and lodging in my pocket-book.
It made a red place by the conclusion, just at
the edge of my lower rib on the right side. 1
got hold of him however, before he could fire
again, and wrenched the revolver away from
him. 1t is q 38 calibre, self-cocking g British
Bulldog" 1 also got the gun. Kahele came to
my assistance, and now we have him in Jail. DIR.
Standat said that had it not been for my
pocket-book I would have had a fatal wound.

The Kings Tour Round the World
THE KING IN SIAM.


The arrival of the d. c. Murray places
Us in possession of intelligence n TO his
Majesty's movements after leaving Hong
Kong Passing over the uneventful voyage
from that port TO the mouth of the great
water-highway of Siam, we have 10 record
the arrival of the Royal party Off the bar
OF the Menam about 10 y. NJ. on the Both
of April. IN entering the river, the steam
yacht of the King of Siam was seen APP
preaching, and shortly afterwards 4 twelve
Dared boat carrying the flag of the White
Elephant came alongside her, carrying an
officer of His Majesty's household, COM
missioned to tender to king Kalakaua the
Inequalities OF his brother of siam. The
invitation was accompanied by expressions
of regret IN the part of His Majesty that
he had not received sufficiently earlvuotice
of the arrival of his royal visitor to allow
of his meeting him in person at the river
bar. Another boat, accompanied that of
the Envoy, carrying HIS Siamese Majesty's
Aide-de-Camp, DISsAwoRKUMARU. Salu-
tations were exchanged, aud the whole
party proceeded on board the royal yacht,
which is described as = a beautiful boat -
and made in her the voyage up the Menam
10 Il ulSlallCt OF ABOUT twenty
miles. The manner in which this yacht
was found and fitted seems to have excited
the admiration of all the party. Under an
awning, so tasteful in its character rs to
attract attention even among 50 many
novelties, cool drinks and delicious liquors
had been provided in profusion, with the
welcome accompaniment of the choicest of
Manila and Siamese cheroots. TIE Menam,
though a great stream, winds and wanders
through the level country below Bangkok,
its banks covered with thick timber and
almost impenetrable jungle, except where,
at short intervals, houses are to be seen
peeping through the verdure. Every
where, on the way, fragile canoes, and
boats with nothing but 4 big palm leaf for
q sail, were TO be seen and here and there
natives spinning Irvine and cordage with
their primitive appliance windmill
rugged on the end of a long pole stuck in
the river bank. In due time the scene was
varied by the appearance of n delightful
repast, amongst the dessert to which the
mangOeS astOnished the visitors, whose
ideas of the fruit had been formed from
the half-wild and weedy specimens they had
been accustomed to in these Islands. Some
of them hav taken care of the seeds of
this fruit for the benefit of their fri ends

~ Complaints are often made of the num-
her Of deaths in Honolulu the causes OF which
have TO be registered as unknown, and the
still greater number in which there has been no
medical attendance on the deceased. Whose
fault is this ? We have a Government whose
duty it is to put an end to such a condi-
ton of things. That they have been warned
and urged on this subject every one
knows, or ought to know. For the bene-
ht of our present rulers, the following ex-
tract from the Parliamentary papers is hereby
recalled to their memory. 1t is from a report
which bears the signature OF Capt. Jno. Fl.
Brown "Fifty-eight per cent of the deaths of
Hawaiians reported are entirely unattended dur
ing sickness by any qualified physician. This
matter should be Investigated and some means
adopted whereby minors, at least, should not be
allowed to die, by parents and guardians, with
out proper medical attendance. | referred to
this matter in my report for the Legislature of
1878. | have great difficulty in ascertaining the
cause of deaths of Hawaiians, and l hope the
authorities, by cooperation with ougsLegislative
representatives., will obtain the passage of such
laws as are necessary to compel parents and
rem, and also to make it necessary to produce a
certificate of the cause of death from the attend
ing physician, before q certificate of burial can
be granted and in case no physician has at
tended the deceased person, the certificate of
cause of death issue from the Coroner.

\ case which excited a good deal OF
insr-st was heard at the Police Court on Tues
day last. Zip Lung, a passenger by the Robt.
T. Clayton from Callao bound to China was
accused Of attempting to smuggle jewelry. The
evidence showed that Zip Lung had offered to
sell a diamond ring he wore to Mr.. Sam. Nc
Keague and that Mr.. Jno, Markham, c. H. guard,
on the Robt. +. Clayton, had on searching the
man found two other diamond rings in his
pocket which he confScated. Markham re-
ported To his father who traced Zip Lung to the
shop of QUEEN sun a ieweler in Nuuanu street.
and obtained the same offer as to the ring he
wore as Mcheague had done. whereupon he
took possession of the ring and its owner. For
the defense Quen sun was brought forward to
prove that the rings had never been offered to
him for sale and Zip Lung himself made the

ty@ The new mansion for H. H. Ruth Keeli-
kdlani in Emma street is almost ready for occu-
patton, and the grounds in front of it are now
being t~astefully laid out on a design of which
Mr.. 5. X. Kaai IS, we believe, the author. Those
who have had the opportunity TO inspect this
building, have been much struck with its con-
yenient arrangement and the rich manner in
which 1t has been ornamented internally. An
account of some of the decorative work in plaster
was given in the ADVERTISER some time ago, to
which we may add that the whole has since been
finished in tirst-class style by the contractor,
Mr.. John E. Bowler. Among the work executed
since our last notice, are panels in each of the
three parlors, containing the Hawaiian coat of
arms in fine relief. The whole work of the
ceilings in this house, is remarkably fine and
elaborate. Mr.. Kaai, acting as factor for Her
Highness, has kept a watchful eye on the place
during its construction, and it is We believe in
accordance with his taste that the decoration of
the lower floor in its present style has taken the
place of the original, less elaborate, designs of
the architect Mr.. Hardy. The effect of the fine
plaster work has been enhanced by the painter,
whose rich finish of cornices and ceilings, is j in
a high style of art and has a most pleasing
effect. The whole finish of the building, ipetde
and outside. is highly effective and creditable to
all concerned.
