HER Majesty Queen Kapiolani,
with her usual generosity, has sent
down to the Leper Hospital at Kaka-
ako, large number of bundles of
clothing. Each bundle was marked
with the name of the patient. The
male occupants received blanket,
pair of pants and shirt; the females
blanket, frock and chemise. They
were distributed to the poor lepers
by the Mother Superior. The in
mates of Kakaako return their heart

towards giving these presents, and
especially to Her Majesty the Queen.
THERE was a brilliant display of
celestial pyrotechnics night before

One of the latter, that fell shortly
after ten o'clock, toward the south
ern horizon, was especially grand.
1t was a sphere of intense white
light, and when it exploded it shed
a gorgeous purplish hue over wide
space. Unfortunately for our star
gazing reporter, the point of explo-
sion was hid by the trees of the Gov
eminent yard, and he only saw the
light from it.
