BUSINESS MEETING OF THE LIBRARY.

The regular meeting of the Board
of Officers of the Library Assoca-
ton was held last evening. A report
was presented by the chairman of
the hall and library committee, CIV
ing interesting details concerning
the work of the association. The
circulating department had on the
lst inst books out in the hands of
124 different persons. The cata-
logue now shows 1850 volumes,
being an increase of 1874 volumes
since the association moved into its
present building just a year and a
half ago. About COO of these books
were from the bequest of Queen
Emma, who it will be remembered
left her library to the association.
The remainder have been acquired
partly by purchase and partly by
gift, the largest individual contri-
butor having been Mr.. A. j. Cart
wright. The committee on printed
catalogue reported progress and
were continued. Matters pertain
ing to the work of the entertainment
committee were discussed at some
length, but no action taken which
calls for public notice at this time.
The committee hope TO have some
thing to announce at an early day.

stock on the lands, and says that in
the event of the properties heing
divided up so that fatting paddocks
can be fenced off from the runs, the
facilities for turning off fat cattle
will lie much superior to those OF
Australia, on account of the uni
iormiiy of the Hawaiian climate.
Mr.. Reeves personal observations
have resulted in his determining to
take considerable interest, financi-
ally and otherwise, in the colonial
ton scheme, and believes that if 1t
were well ventilated in the Colonies,
persons of means, interested in the
production of sugar, would take
hold of it, without hesitation.-

THE KINGS ARRIVAL.

As the steamer w. G. Hall entered
the passage yesterday afternoon with
the Roya Standard flying from the
mainmast, a salute was fired from
the shore batter in honor of the
arrival of His Majesty the King,
who was passenger on the steamer.
The Inter-Island Steam Navigation
Co.'s wharf was crowded with spec
tators, many of whom were strangers
eager to get glimpse ut the King.

denied, difficulties in the way Of
framing scheme of city govern
ment for Honolulu which would
work in any degree satisfactorily.
1t is doubtful if any model can be
found among cities elsewhere which
would fit the peculiar circumstances
of the capital of this kingdom. An
extremely heterogeneous population,
a very diversified ground plan, with
physical features of various kinds
that make some improvements most
lacking hard to accomplish, form a
combination of problems in the
formulation of a civic system which
will demand the best thought and
most earnest attention of our citi-
zens to solve. 1t is due to the COM
mercial eminence this ocean capital
has attained, that the possessors of
its wealth and influence should take
this matter into serious considera-
ton. We shall continue frequently
to bring it to their attention, sug-
costing such ideas.as we may deem
promotive of the desirable consum-
nation.

OAHU COL0NIzATION-.-THE OUTLOOK.

Mr.. Herbert Reeve, of New
South Wales, Australia, arrived here
by the Mariposa, two weeks ago,
en- route to the United States. Mr..
Reeve has large interests in sheep
and cattle Using in Australia, and
was induced by hearing of the
fame of the Hawaiian Islands, to
remain over and "do' the country
so far as time would permit. He
has just returned from six days
expedition round Oahu, during
which time he visited Honouliuli,
Waimea, l.awailoa and Kahuku
ranches, and is favorably impressed
with the prGcticability of converting
those areas into fair and profitable
homesteads for large population.
The Honolulu and Kahuku proper
ties he considers exceptionally
good, not only in the natural rich
ness of soil but also in the eleva-
tons being at such an average level,
about 80 feet, above the sea, as to
secure for the lands fine natural
drainage. Mr.. Reeve is of the
opinion that artesan wells placed
along the foot of the mountains
which form the headlands of the
cultivahle areas, would be likely to
secure all needed water for irriga-
ton purposes, and considers that
once the colonization company is
far enough advanced to provide the
water supplies, the whole region will

CITY GOVERNMENT.

Honolulu has outgrown the style
of its government. Nothing is
clearer than that proposition. The
state of affairs in this capital city is
growing worse instead of better, so
far as public works are concerned.
Indeed, it is hard to see how inter-
nal matters can be improved, under
existing conditions. Public improve
ments required will take money to
pay for them. There never will be
sufficient means for city purposes,
in all probability, so long as the ex-
penses all come out of ordinary
national revenues. If this is to be
a well-appointed and properly gov
,erned metropolis, its citizens will

WASHINCTON'S BIRTHDAY.

American patriotism is abundautly
manifest in the number of star
spangled banners floating in the
breeze, from flagstaffs on shore and
in the harbor, to-day; while the uni
versal respect and good-feeling of
other nations toward the Great Re-
public is equally obvious in the
bunting displayed by other than
American residents. At noon a
national salute was fired from the
shore battery, Kakaako, in honor of
the birthday of the "Father of his
country" His Excellencv Geo. w.
Merrill, United States Minister Re-
sident, and Mrs. Merrill are holding
an informal levee at the American
Legation. The first to call this
morning was Mr.. Taro Ando, Jap
anese Consul and Diplomatic Agent.

the Cabinet, called later; also Mrs.
Gulick, Hon. A. S. Cleghorn, Mr..
II. w. Irwin, Hawaiian Consul Gen
eral to Japan; and Mr.. II. w. Lame,
Spanish Consul. Doubtless the dip
lomatic corps generally will have
called, before this is read, as our
report is necessarily made at the
height of the event, when there was
a steady stream of visitors at the
Legation. The Royal Hawaiian
Band was playing on the grounds,
having been sent out of compliment
to the United States, and her popular
representative and his lady, by the
Hawaiian G Government Feb. 22nd.

A TRAGEDY ON RAUL.

A correspondent of the Press
recounts the details of a shocking
tragedy that occurred near Haiku,
Maui, few weeks ago. All Len,
q well-known Chinese cook, owed
fora, japanese employed by Mr..
Baldwin, fifteen dollars, and had Civ
en- him his watch as security. All Len
waylaid fora on the road to Hama
kuapoko, at point where an i'm
mense stone almost bars the path,
beside precipice of hundred feet
or more. When fora approached
All Len fired revolver at him, hut
missing followed up the attack with
the dubbed weapon. A fearful
struggle ensued, IN the course of
which the pistol went off, shooting
All Len in the leg. All the time he
was beating fora about the head
with the weapon, and thus inflicted
score of wounds. fora, weak
from loss of blood, was forced over
the precipice, but dragged his as
sailant with him. All Len saved
himself, however, by clutching a
shrub, while fora rolled on down
the face of the cliff. All Len went
on to Haiku and asked help OF the
Deputy Sheriff, Halekunihi, saying
that he had been shot by China
man in Hamakuapoko. In the mean
time party of natives passing by
heard fora family crying for help,
and having a lantern they found
him caught by one leg in shrub
about twenty feet down the cliff.
With great difficulty they succeeded
in fastening rope round his body
and drawing him up. He was taken
on horse to Mr.. Baldwin's, where
DR.. Bull dressed his wounds. His
head was in a frightful state, but,
although his life was in danger fol
some days, he gradually recovered.
All Lens wound was found to be
slight, and early next morning he
was removed by Sheriff Chilling.

to protect him from an anticipated

KAUMAKAPlli CHURCH.

Another collection, for the balance
due on the second tower of Kau-
makapili church, was taken at the
church yesterday morning. There
was a very large audience present.
On the pulpit platform were the
Pastor, Rev. j. Waiamau, Rev. 5.
Kali, of Waikapu, Maui, Rev. S.
Waiwaiole, and Mr.. Henry Water
house. At II O'Clock His Majesty
the King, attended by Col. Judd,
arrived, and took seats on the plat
form. In the body of the church
were the officers of the different
volunteer companies, and also de-
tachments of the Kings Own,
Princes Own, Royal Guards, and
the Leleiohoku Guards. In the
congregation were seated the Hons.
A. =. Paehaole, j. Keau, f. Pahia,
+. l.. Kauai, j. l.. Kaulukou, and
+. II. Hayselden. After the arrival
of His Majesty the collection was
proceeded with. Mr.. Warehouse
stated that $500 were needed to
finish paying for the tower. The
work on it was done. The building
committee had examined it the day
before, and found it perfectly salts
factory, and completed according to
contract. He had no doubt that the
necessary amount would be raised.
In little over half an hour the
Treasurer reported the amount re-
ceiyed from the various committees
and the audience, including several
pledges then paid, to be SG45. 10.
Mr.. Warehouse then thanked the
audience for the amount received,
and stated that many of them would
remember that his father had promis-
ed to give $500 to the church fund
upon completion of the second
tower. 1t being finished, he was
prepared to pay that pledge to-day,
and deposited on the table bag OF
money in silver and certificates
amounting to $500. This sweled
the collection to 81, 145. 10. Mr..
Warehouse then called for pledges
for seating the audience room W
stairs. A little over 500 was pro.
missed, to be paid in April, including
500 from j. II. Warehouse, Sr
The pastor then asked His Majesty
to make few remarks. He statcC
that he was very glad that they haC
raised such large amount, and he
hoped to meet them again there il
April, when they must be preparet
to pay the pledges they had made
that day. Then the benediction wa
pronounced and the audience dis

saffoTd, Arizona, June i9. Iss5.

SaffoTd, Arizona, June 1a lssi. The citizens of our valley who recently made the trip to your town have all returned. They ex- press themselves as highly pleas ed with their visit and the manner in which they were entertained. They were surprised somewhat at the magnitude of the mining works, and the energy displayed by the Arizona Copper Company, Tn all its departments, the facilities for transportation and the advantages in the way Of reduction. The mines interested our people great ly. The railway with its sharp curves, and the inclInes connected with it,-a spice of danger or ad- venture about the latter suggest ing itself to the stranger-all come in for their share of praise. Speak ing of adventure, the hotel episode with which you and your towns men are doubtless familiar fur nishes one of the ludicrous events of the trip, and the individual who unwlllingly figured so prominently  comes in for his full share of chaff- ing. Rumor Has it that politics were more or less connected with the visit; rather early in the season is it not for such questions?
 The valley Is qulet, harvesting is well along, and every thing pros porous. Some little complaint of late has been made in regard to the condition of our roads with threatenings of legal proceedings Tn the future, which as yet amounts only to talk.
 A little unpleasantness arose lately between two neighbors, which resulted in an action for trespass, q jury trial, and a verdict of no cause for action. More anon.

For some time past the Cham
 pion Cattle Company have suspect
 ed they were being victimized and
 that cattle. of their brand were be
 ing regularly slaughtered, convert
 ed into beef and sold. Suspicion
 soon gave way to fact, and
 proof was obtained that such was the case. The proof was of the common sense kind patent to all, but the query arose if it be the legal kind required by the law and sufficient for conviction. It was determined to add to this, Deputy Sheriff Randall was engaged, took the train for the Coronado Ranch, Monday last, and thence in compa- ny with Pink Robinson, Jim Sub let and Frank Taylor, proceeded across the country to the river a  short distance below Wards. There they saw a party of four, through a field glass which they carried, driving a band of cat tie among which were two bearing the brand of the Champion Cattle Company. Following this party, and keeping themselves concealed meantime, they saw them lassoo one bearing the brand, as above mentioned, proceed with the ami nal to a point near Wards Ranch, kill it with three shots and prepare to begin butchering. Thinking thls sufficient Randall with his party pushed on them just as they were skinning the beef, and with guns well aimed ordered g surren- der The order was complied with and about 10 o'clock Monday eve ming, John Ward, Antonio Marti- neg, Primotivio Madina and Cris- tobal Reviel were lodged in the jail at Clifton.
 Tuesday the four were brought before Justic ". R. Mccormick, testimony to tue above effect in- troduced on the part of the Terri tory and acknowledged by the de- fense. Whereupon they were com mitted to the care of the sheriff to await the action of the grand jury, wi h bail fixed in the sum of Sl, ,500 in the case of Ward, and S1,O00 for each of the other defendants.
