Of FIRE The goddess, tickle minded oue,
Though late on thee her fayors were best wed,
10 other loves IN distant parts went forth
And waves her flaming scepter Ear away
On Mauna I.oas lofty dome enthroned.
No more within Thy de,pened cup DO wav.s
OF liquid fusion their blazing crests
About FIRE fountains there no longer play.
Nor more above thy circling rim are dashed
Successive clouds Of burning spray, nor down
Thy rugged sides do fiery streamlets pour
But chill and voiceless as the tomb thou art
And passing shadows all the day enrobe
Thy death still form in somber hue. Around
Thee stand in vast amphitheare,
With head oer-toppng head until the peaks
Far back look down on al, the mountains IN
Derp silence same that once had cared in aw.
Upon the shining daden, now thine
No more. With pity they regard thee dead
And at thy feet the ocean pillows fall
And liz their voices in unceasng dirge
The vale and cliff repeat in mournful wall
Like thee must he all life. The richest crown
Must pass to other hands, and other brows
Adorn. The brightest light must darkened be.
The hrmest grasp Of power must loose its hold.
Applause and kindest word mus, fall at last
On ears that hear no sound and love, forsootl
10 deepest grief and bitter tears must turn,
When thgrave its object holds All this must be

kamehameha the Cong"erinD King"
Dr. a. ". NeUeii's --latest.
DIR. c. NJ. Newell, author of "Kalani of
Oahu, Pehe Nue." etc, has just issued
romance Of Hawaii entitled "Kamehameha
the Conquering King-The Mystery Of his
Birth, Loves and Conquests." The work is a
duodecimo of 1913 pages. we'll printed and at
tractiyely bound by the Knickerbocker Press
Of G.. p. Putnam's sons, New York. 1t is
dedicated by permission to Queen Kapiolani
and Is embellished by woodcut Of the Kane.
hameha statue in front Of the government
building. A glossary Of Hawaiian words &C.
companies the story. Mr.. Ncwell's preface,
from which is taken the following quotation,
succinctly explains the plan and scope Of this
fascinating story; "Thc greater part Of this
romance is truthful narrative Of the real
history Of this most remarkable Of Hawaiian
kings. None of the battles described,
or Of the personal combats Of Kamehamcha
are fictitious, though the historian has de-
pended for his details upon the traditions of
the priests and the chants and meles of the
most dramatic epochs Of his theme, to the ex-
cusion Of all intermediate incden,s-.those be-
ing left to the modern narrator 10 conceive.
The story opens in Waimanu Valley, de-
scribed with many graphic touches. Many
OF the titles Of chapters are well calcu-
lated to pique curiosity Wooed and
Won and Parted Forever; Midnight Incanta-
tons Among the Ghosts The Feast Of the
Warlike Kings; Royal Lovers on the Moonlit
Shore; kamehameha's Pilgrimage to the
Gods; etc. The temptation to quote at
length is great. But a single extract must
sufhce--an extract which, while it has little to
do with the story proper, illustrates well the
authors style "What an arena Of savage
grandeur is the Pali--,he Thermopyle Of
| Oahu. What sacred memories flood the mind
when we recall the tragic incidents Of that
| dreadful battle The heart thrills as we con.
| template its life-like visions of historic drama
come and 60 before our wondering eyes. Here
bare the head and bless the hour for what
you see to-day, for, towering like an eagles
| eyrc. the Pail now overooks paradise of
| Christian homes, bewitching panorama Of
peaceful lands. These are
natures best balm to dispel our sadness and
assuage our tears after sorrowing over a
nations bereavement when standing where a
once martial kingdom was lost and won."

A pamphlet has been received from Prof. F.
A. Forel, of Monges, Switzerland, containing
his article published in the Archives DIES
Sciences Physiques ct Naturelles Of Geneva,
for September, 1884, upon the present con.
slant atmospheric halo or corona around the
sun, which he, with others, attributes to dust
from KIakatoa. With this was enclosed
circular from NJ. Forel upon the same subject,
dated April ~, 1855, soliciting results of OBJ
servaiion Of the solar halo in series Of ques
tions under the title, "Couronne solaire, soft
cerclede Bishop, Observer en- 1883, 1854, ct
1885; par NJ. F. A. Forel."
The above designation of this halo is ex.
planned as follows: "The persistence Of this
corona, which l propose 10 call Bishops
Ring from the name of the observer who
gave the frs, description of it, from the Sand.
witch Islands, Mature XXIX. 26o). is truly
wonderful"
MIR. Bishops earliest description Of this
singular phenomenon, which procured him
this honor, was copied by Nature from the
Saturday Press, Of October 6, 1884. as follows
"During the past two weeks, the haze-stra.
tum has developed more definiteness of form.
In certain conditions Of sunset light, il has been
distinctly visible as continuous sheet over the
entire sky, at height far above that Of the
highest cirrus clouds. A slight wavy ripple
has been very noticeable, in ms structure. 1t
has always been perfectly transparent, trans
hitting the light 81 the smallest stars, and
itself invisible, except in particular conditions
Of sunlight During several days, it. has
formed a conspicuous circle Of Is to 2odegrees
radius against the sun, appearing as misty
rippled surface Of haze with fain, crimson hue,
which, at the edges Of the circle. gave a
parplish tint agains! the blue sky"
Mr.. Bishop claims also to have been the
first to publish, under date Of September 70,
1883, also in this journal, the opinion that the
Red CLOVIS " were caused by smoke from
Krakatoa. Whether any dtsey,pfion Of them

LeXington's old court house il soon to
go to give place TO the new one, for which
the County Commissioners are already
preparing. The old court house has a
history. The first Superior court was
held about one and one-half miles east OF
the town Of the Lexington of to-day, at
the forks of the Washington and Wood
stock roads. The place Is now known as
the Mrs. Mary Dudley Smith place. The
first court was held on June 10. 1894.
On June 10, 1895, Judge Benjamin Tai
iaierro gave his charge to the grand jury,
and, among other things, said that there
was some dissatisfaction as to where the
court house should be located. He
charged them that water and a central
point was necessary, etc., and that theN
must decide the matter. The word "gaOl''
was used instead of our present word
''jail." He said further that the expense
of building a court house and gaol was
no object, as the commissioners had the
right to draw on the funds of the State for
the sum of 9100 at any time they will
apply, which itself is alone sufficient for
building convenient court house.
The charge seems to have been given
by Judge TalliateTrO. He must have ex-
changed with Judge Stlth, as he says
this is his first visit to the county, and,
therefore, could not advise them as TO the
location best suited for the court house.
