EUROPE is practically considering the
temperance question, and it will not
down. Thinkers of every political
school throughout civilization admit
that something must be done to check
intemperance. English politics recog-
nize the matter as factor, and in re-
cent speech John Bright said of temper
ance that it is great cause, more in
timately connected with the real adj
vantage of the people than almost any
other public question that can be possi-
bly, discussed.

REV. Miss PHOEBE HANAFoRD was
worldly minded, invested in precious
jewelry, went to the mountains for a
vacation, and in her absence, burglars
who believed in free trade, without
money and without price, carried off the
rich ornaments, along with the COM
muniOn service of the church into cap
tivity-a solemn warning to all minis
tiers who take vacation, or rather to
those who have anything to be stolen.

Of the wagon, he was violently pre-

The horse and vehicle proceeded in
the direction of home at even greater
speed than before, whilst Antoine lay
on the road in an Unconscious con-
dition and apparently lifeless. Good
Samaritans were near at hand, who
removed him to the nearest shade
and bathed his bruised head with
cold water. On recovering con-
sciousness he was more anxious to
know what had become of the horse

his own bodily injuries. Within a
half an hour after the occurrence of
the accident Antoine was seen seated
in the same wagon and driving the
same horse, as if nothing unusual
had transpired.

A LEAKY SHIP.

The Martha Rideout now in port
discharging coal is, to all appear
ance, an old rotten vessel. If the
statements of those on board her
be correct she is such. On the voy-

leaked badly all the way. With don

had four feet of water in the hold.
During her long stay in port at
Tahiti the pumps had to be kept

age from Tahiti up, after 800 tons of

engine was used all day and the

A FAREWELL ALOHA.

In laying down the editorial pen
and shears l wish to say few final
words to my readers who have great
ly helped me in my labours by their
continued support and friendly
criticism. 1t has been an arduous
task to raise daily paper from a
mere record of local items to the
position of a definite exponent of
public opinion. 1t would have been
impossible but for the kind assistance
and criticism of those friendly to the
BULLETIN. To enumerate their
names would require too large a
share, if not the whole, of our space
and many of them are of too retiring
nature to feel gratified with the
publicity that putting their names
in the columns of q newspaper would
give.
Their number is however far too
great to allow of an individual and
personal letter of thanks but | take
this method of thanking them col
lectively and individually for their
continued kindly and generous
feelings in the past and of expressing
the hope that nothing will ever
occur to mar OF strain these kindly
relations in the future.
Much criticism on the BULLETIN
has been, from time to time, inser-
ted in the other newspapers of Ho-
nolulu. A great deal of it, / be-
lieve, has been the honest expression
of the opinions of those inserting it
but more has been induced by the
idea that this paper ought to follow
slavishly in the footsteps of one or
other of the political parties already
existing and because it has not done
so but bestowed it's praise and CEN
sure on any given act OF statement
without regard to party considera-
tions it has been blamed and dis
honest motives insinuated as the
cause. Those who have personally
known of the facts have never be-
lieved so and / rest convinced no
right-minded person will believe such
an insinuation. The BULLETIN dur
ing the past year has never favored
either one party, or the other, or
any section of either, from any other
motive than those of DOING THE
RIGHT by every one as it would wish
them to return the compliment.
have only to again express my
cordial aloha to all the patrons of
the BULLETIN and to assure them
of it's continuance in the part of

Treason & Magnanimity.
AN ANECDOTE


When Kamehameha conquered
Oahu though he had firmly estab-
lished himself all the chiefs had not
reconciled themselves to his rule.
Kamehameha however adopted the
plan of making the women chiefs
and not allowing their husbands to
receive the taxes. He also selected
the handsomest and smartest women
as spies who used to report to him
all that went on their districts. One
of these female spies reported to him
that the chiefs of Ezra, Waianae,
and WdiaIua, were conspiring
against him and were to meet on
given night at P,uloa (Pearl Rlver,)
then the favorite spot with the
chiefs of those districts, to finally
settle on their plans.
Kamehameha was then living at
PulahoIaho, afterwards known as
Charlton Square, the block now
bounded by Merchant, Kaahumanu,
Queen, and Nuuanu Street. 1t was
then supper-time .and he excused
himself from supper and taking his
famous spear of peculiar make, Ka
Me Kumaehameh0, the like of
which no other Hawaiian had, he
started off striking across the har-
bour at KapuuAolo (near Emmes
bodybuilding establishment, } to 10
holo1oa, along a fishpond wall to
Kulaohaiaoiula, (the plains near
Kalihi), then swimming the Kalihi
passage and wading till he came to
Ahua (the sand beach below NO.
ana1ea), then to the Pearl River
and swimming across to Puuloa.
He thus made bee-line from f. to
w. over land and sea alone without
single attendant. Nothing stopped
him. Here he went from halou to
halau, (the h0l0u is Il large meet
ing house), until he came to the
place where all the Chiefs were in
side plotting treason against him.
After listening long enough to learn
all their plans he stuck his spear,
point downwards, in the sand about
4 feet from the door and returned
as he came alone.
When the chiefs awoke next morn
ing and went out they saw the spear.
Said they, "The great chief has been
here. Here is his spear. He knows
ALL" So in accordance with the
ancient Hawaiian custom of those
who feared for their lives, they went
to Honolulu and crawled in on their
hands and knees into the presence
of kamehameha saying "E ola 0u." I"
(Let me live.) And Kamehameha
granted their prayer and had the
satisfaction of knowing ever after
that they were faithful to him.
