fight. We predict that the day is
not far distant when the King of
Hawaii, like the King of Norway,
will be compelled, willingly or un-
willing, to listen to the voice of an
honest, unbought loyal Legislature,
and TO recognize the principle that
the Government is for the people
and not for the King, and that the
Hawaiian Government must and
shall be conducted honestly and
constitutionally.

when thc'Organ takes to recommend

that there is Il screw loose somewhere,
and the public had better look closely
at the change they take from any

are exceptions, however, to every

&c; II. MS Chamberlain, s7S5
G.. w. Macfarlane & Co., s4, 965.lO.
Mr.. Kalua spoke warmly against
these bills coming in the last day
but one before prorogation.
Mr.. c. II. Judd (Chambcrlain,)
said he had laid the items before the
Finance Committee and had hoped
they would have been brought in
earlier. A good many of them
were for finishing the Palace.
Mr.. Dole asked the Minister Of
the Interior why these accounts
were not brought in earlier.
Minister Gulick replied that he
did not know if there was an OPP
portunity for bringing them in
earlier. This seemed to him to be
about as opportune II time TO bring
them in as any time.
Mr.. Dole said he regarded that rs
an impcrtinent answer of His Ex-
cellency. The House had been on
the Appropriation Bill for the past
two months, and if the Ministers
had not brought these accounts in
for want Of an opportunity, then
they did not understand their busi-
ness. As far as the Assembly could
judge by that answer they had deli
berately kept back these items be-
lieving this was the best time, to suit
themselves, t9 bring them in.
"Whom the gods wish to destroy
they first make mad" The Minis
ters are piling up this black record
against themselves as if they wished
to destroy all hope of their salvation.
No one in this Assembly or in the
Hawaiian Islands have done acts
which are more severe upon them
than themselves, and this is one of
them. And they seem to be doing
their best to blacken the name Of
the King and to bring him into con-
tempt before the nation. He under
stood that one of these items, which
had been put down to Macfarlane &
Co., was not one which this Assem-
bly, has anything to do with. 1t was
for carriages, harness and pictures
for His Majesty. They, knowing
that these items could not stand in
vestigation, have kept them till the
last moment hoping to escape inves-
tigaton. 1t was trick and it would
be unworthy of any member of this
House to support the Ministry in it.
He supposed that there were some
of these items Which the country
should pay, and that there were
others which no one but His Majesty
should pay. They could not find
out how the account should stand
except by investigation of it by the
proper Committee. Where was the
time for the Finance Committee to
investigate, however? Committee
men are made of flesh and blood
and must have some time to sleep.
, His Majesty did not want his own
private expenses, for which he re-
ceives $40, 900, paid by extra appro-
priations-he did not want to come
there as beggar to have his debts
paid. He supported the motion OF
Mr.. Kalua to refer the accounts to
the Finance Committee.

raflles and other games of chance
was read third time and passed.
An Act to prevent unlawful secret
associations was read third time
and Minister Neumann moved its
passage.
Mr.. W. O. Smith did not know if
they had right to pass such law.
He knew and sympathized with the
object, but doubted if such a law
was more admissible than one would
be to prevent man sleeping in 4
room with green blinds. lie asked
Minister to define what he meant by
secret societies.
Minister Neumann said secret
societies were those which shut out
the public from their proceedings
by means of secret passwords,
signs, etc. The bill was directed
against secret societies of the Chi
nese. 1t was well-known that those
people maintained on some of the
Islands societies opposed to the
peace and property of the commu-
nifty. 1t would be no hardship to
societies with praiseworthy object
to present to the Government a list
of their principal members and a
statement of their object The bill

Chinese Prison Fare.


Chinese prison fare consists of the
cheapest and coarsest of rice, about
three cents worth per diem, little salt
vegetables, and the weakest of tea to
wash it down. Anything more mustbe
provided by their friends through the
keepers, who squeeze good living out
of these commissions. When prisoner
has no friends, slow starvation is added
to his miseries; he quickly makes his
confession of guilt and halls the day
that seals his doom; lifting up his voice
in song while being carried in baskets
through the streets to execution. When
one sees conditions so favorable for the
generation of zymotic diseases, it is a
perfect marvel that any survive an in
generation such as this, sometimes ex-
tending over five or ten years. 1t can
easily be imag ned that death does
snatch many of them out OF the laws
clutches before it has done its worst for
them. AS it is, the mortality among the
criminals is so great that dead-house is
a necessary ad unct to each prison. The
turnkey finds some morning that pris-
oner or two have succumbed 10 starva-
ton, disease or torture.
Dead or dying, the unhappy wretch
is taken up and cast into the dead
house, where other corpses may be ly-
ing, awaiting the farce OF an inquest.
They are then passed through a small
hole in the out, n wall, into the adjoin-
ing street, for burial, the portals of q
magistrates yamen being too sacred to
be de6led by the exit Of criminals
corpse. The inferior prisons and the
police prisons need little description
the same filthy dens, the same fiendish
faces, the same emaciated bodies. Here
are confined persons charged with light
er offenses. such as burglary, theft and
debt. These cells are often so densely
crowded that one IS reminded of the
Black Hole of Calcutta. There is some
times no space to lie down. The heat
in summeris so sitting that they strip
themselves nude, while the stencil is
simply s'ckening to the momentary
visitor. The writer will never forget the
sight on one occasion Of the crowd OF
emaciated, unearthly looking beings,
nearly all covered from head to foot
with Gu aneous diseases, clamoring at
the bars of their cells for medicine to
cure them. Every foreigner is sup
posed to be physician, and some kind
hearted visitors have taken quantities
of sulphur, iodine and carbolic ac,d,
which they have dispensed gratis and
with good effect upon the bodies Of
these poor wretches. - Cor. San Francis

CHAPTER XIX.
FAREWELL.


Philip went home to Foulhaven. and
it seemed as if the days absolute y flew
by in the old home-the great old stone
farmhouse on the breezy down where
everything was SO peaceful, so quiet
and so homely-in such intense contrast
to the life he had just left and to that
upon which he was about to enter.
This birthplace Of hi; was beauti-
full place. The ancient house stood on
the side Of down facing southwest,
sheltered by rising ground to the east,
where was the sea. Foulhaven was q
beautiful old town, and the sea grand
one which washed the coast there, con-
tinually rolling its glorious surges up
to the foot OF the great cliffs. From
the farm one might walk over Mr..
Massey's fields, and the thymy downs
to the edge OF the said cliffs, and there,
away from sight or sound of human
habitation, watch the great green
rollers come sweeping up, and burst
ing into long crested lines of snowy
breakers. One might see the smoke Of
the great steamers from Newcastle and
Hull blowing their way, as 1t were, to
the horizon line, while the heavens
above were blue, and the grass beneath
was green, and all the earth was
lovely a4.n US

CHAPTER Xxx.


Foulhaven, in the summer time, was
pleasant place, and Red Lees, the
great farm where Mr.. Massey the elder
lived in almost patr.archal state, was
one of the very pleasantest spots in the
vicinity. There was a kind Of conserva-
tism about Foulhaven-a chronic de-
preston in its trade, an absence of go"
in its shopkeepers, and an amateur
ishness about the proceedings OF its
Mayor and corporation, all of which
things, combined, it is to be presumed,
with other causes, prevented it from de-
veloping into a large and flourishing
town, and allowed it to remain one Of
the loveliest, s'eepiest, quaintest places
that it is possible to imagine.
Three years had rolled by since Philip
Massey hld let his home and said good
bye to his sister with the final injunc-
tion Look after Mabelle." The three
years had expired in April; it was now
August, and he had not retul ned-was
not expected to return until late in the
autumn. Indeed, it was somewhat
doubt u whether he might come home
even then. In his few and rather mea-
ger letters he spoke OF the possibility of
another commission which might take
him to some other distant quarter of
the world, in order to reach which it
would not be at all necessary to call at
Foulhaven, or even to visit England
OF course there were hopes and fears at
home, long ngs that he would come,
and lamentations on the state of uncer-
tainty in which he left them, but con-
viction underlying all that he would go
his own way, and that he knew, better
than any one else, what was best for
himself. lt) .ts
One peaceful August afternoon every
one and everything at Red Lees ap-
peared to be taking a prolonged siest..
There was silence in the farmyard,
silence in the sunny garden, except
where the bees were buzzing and hum
ming about the hives, silence in the
spacious old house itself, silence every
where. The wide entrance door stood
open, SO that one could see into the
sunny, square hall, with the black oak
table in the center, on which stood the
great blue china jar, full of gorgeou;
roses, pink and white and crimson, and
the queen OF them all, the yellow Gloire
de Dijon, with its musky fragrance.
The hall was tagged, and in summer
the flags were innocent of mating OF
carpet On one side were the polished
oaken stairs, with broad carved hand
rail and twisted sticks The deer
wainscoting was Of oak, too, and the
doors OF the parlor the same. A large,
ample. chintz-covered sofa stood on one
side strewed with books and q half
knitted stocking. in the midst Of which
