A writer on the above subject says:
Many of the women are very beauti-
full, but the rule is here, as with
other savage nations, that the men
are the more handsome. The COM
plexion of the Polynesians varies
from an olive to a reddish-purple
hue. which is regarded in Tonga as
the perfection of beauty. A darker
shade is,however, regarded as sign
of strength, and fair complexion
as a sigh OF disease. When they
searched the battlefield for the
bones of the slain, out Of which to
make chisels or fshhooks, they al
ways selected the dark-skinned
bodies, supposing that their bones
would be stronger than the fair
skinned ones. They formerly looked
upon the white skin ofthe European
with pity. believing it to be the
effects OF a kind of leprosy; and al
though they now know better they
still adhere to a black skin as being
the standard of beauty.

On Captain Hobron's return. he laid his

From his schooners and plantation he
accumulated quite large fortune. Dur

Mr.. Paul L. Isenberg, Jr., entertained
the Stars and Honolulu Baseball Clubs
and few friends to luau at his Wala-
lac residence last Saturday evening.
His Majesty, the King was present dur
ing the early part of the evening, at
tended by his Chamberlain, James w.
Robertson, Esq. The refreshments were
spread in large tent, which was taste
fully decorated with evergreens. The
Stars wore high brown beaver hats, got
specially for the occasion. The Homo
lulus had blue ribbon on the lappels of
their coats. During the repast toasts
were responded to by His Majesty the
King, Col. w. F. Allen, Hon. Paul Neu-
mann, and Messrs. Isenberg, Boardman,
Kinney, Taylor, Whitney, Winter, Wilder
and Berger. The Hawaiian Band was
in attendance and Prof. Berger was at
his best. Mr.. Isenberg keeps up the
style of his father who is well known for
superintendent OF the feast and spared
no pains to make it a success. The
guests dispersed early on account of the
rain, after thanking their genial host for
the pleasant time that they had. Among
those present were: His Majesty the
King, members of the Stars and Homo
lulu Baseball Clubs, Hon. W. F. Allen,

Attempted suicide of Malietoa.

During the conveyance of the exiled
king from the Marshall group to his old
home, a very sensational incident &C.
CURED, according to reports which have
come to hand from Apia, based upon in
formation received from the officers of
HI. G. Ms Wolf. When Malietoa was
taken on board the gunboat, it appears
that he was not informed what were the
intentions regarding him, but on the
second day out from Jaluit, after dining
with the officers, he was told that he was
being taken back to Samoa. Whether it
was only from distrust OF the Germans,
or that he feared that some hoax-pos-
sibly involving punishment Of some sort
was being practised upon him, or that
his mind had become unhinged during
his exile, is not known, but on the first
opportunity which he had after his des-
tination was told him, Malietoa Jumped
overheard in mid-ocean. This suicidal
act was, however, quickly noticed by the
VOLTS officers, and boat being promptly
lowered, he was picked up not much the
worse. For q couple of DAYS a watch
was kept upon Malietoa's movements,
but he managed to seize another oppor-
tunity, and threw himself overheard
again. A second time he was picked up,
and got safely on board the ship, and
until the vessels arrival the old chief
tain was guarded, so that it was impos-
sible for him to repeat his rash attempt.

HILO NEWS LETTER.

1
Progress in the District-A Canal Being
Made-A Small Iutiny of Seamen-
New Japanese Hospital, etc.
Three days before the brig Lurline
arrived at Hilo two men (brothers) who
were working their passage, were very
independent and refused to obey the
orders of the captain. They threatened
to burn the vessel, so the captain re-
ports, as well as the passengers. On
being brought before the captain, one of
them struck him, and the other came to
help. Orders were then given to
have irons placed ON them. On arrival
at Hilo they were sent to prison and one
fined $25. They were very green to
strike the captain and should have been
hung up to dry, for it was striking in
stance of utter depravity. The captain
is noted for mis- great kindness to his
men, and they would stand by him and
not see hair of his head touched.
We have bear in town which came
over from Kau.
Hacks are getting very plentiful at
Hilo. There will be more demand for
them soon, if they charge reasonable
prices, after the Volcano road is finished
to the Hallway House.
1t seems absurd on the part OF Homo
lulu officials to send officers to search
vessels that come here, as though our
nxrr lS not hln nf
ing our own matters. The custom house
officer of Hilo is right smart, and if it is
thought that help is needed it can be
had. The officials that have come here
on several occasions have never found
opium; they may have found opiates,
but opium never. The captain says of
the brig Lurline that has been searched
so thoroughly, that any man who finds
opium on board his vessel, he will pre-
sent to him fine suit OF clothes.
The Japanese of Hilo district have
raised sufficient money to build them a
hospital. They have leased large lot
OF ground on Front street, facing the
bay, and will build at once. They have
made an offer for the skating rink. The
Japanese have long needed a building
for their sick and the location is excel
lent.
Rev. E. P. Baker, OF First Foreign
Church, Hilo, gave another very inter
esting lecture on Palestine on the Sth
inst, illustrated by maps as before.
The Chinaman who was shot by an
other Chinaman at Pepeekeo, short
time since, is likely to have his life
spared and is slowly recovering from his
wounds.
The brig Lurline will leave about Sat-
urday, 21st inst, with almost a cargo OF
sugar from Wainaku. Mr.. w. E. Scott
and wife of Wainaku, and Thos. Forbes
of Waiakea will be passengers.
At last the Waiakea and Waiolama
rivers are to be connected by canal
twenty feet wide. This has long been
desired and talked of. 1t will give a
good drive on the beach to Waiakea
bridge; and, in rough weather when the
steamer Kinau has to land her passen-
gers on that side, will make the distance
much more short and pleasant to Hilo.
Men are now at work on the canal.

audience to the Makiki diamond on

victory for the Pacific Hardware by a

good on both sides. This was the first

will probably be played. Capt. Robert

BY the way, your correspondent
"Matter of Fact" takes serious excep-
tons to my remarks about going to the
top OF Haleakala in brake. As you
see in last weeks items, 1 abated my
enthusiasm over the new road after later
reports from tourists; but nevertheless
the trip to the top, steep as it is in
places, is much more practicable than
the trip actually made a few weeks ago
by Mr.. M. j. Mclean. He drove in a
brake over all the pals from Hama to
kpahulu for wager. 1t will be hard
for those who know the road, bride
path about the width of the Haleakala
road, to credit this statement; but Mr..
Mclean, and those who rode along as
witnesses, will coroborate it.
l hope that no tourist will be fright
ened away by "Matter of Fact" for it is
a matter of fact that the new road really
does away with the only real difficulty
OF the mountain trip, by making smooth
the rough road from Puunianiau to the
round hill below the cave.
