AN AsR0NhUT

Mr.. +. A. Roop, of San Fran
cisco, proposes to give the Homo
luluans a sensation. He has written
to Mr.. j. L. Wiscman, making en-
quiries about the Hawaiian winds,
whether their style of blowing is of
the right sort to admit u balloon as
cension. Should the answer prove
satisfactory, we may expect Mr..
Roop some fine day. during the
summer, start from the top of
Punchbowl to make an ETHEREAL tour
of the Islands. Aloha.
