A Sandwich Islands Superstition.

Honolulu Cor American Field.l
We have a periodical visit of small
fat fish called uini 1t makes its appear
ance at intervals of from ten, fifteen to
twenty years. When these fish appear in
the bay immense numb of men, women
and children arm themselves with baskets,
rod and line, and repair to the water
front to get each one his or her share of
the bounteous feast swimming before
them. Those who have plenty of idle
slime on their hands pass days and nights
8long the wharfs and beach in their quest
for the fish of the gods.
The superstition still prevails-when-
ever it appears it is taken by fishermen
and people generally as sure precursor
of the death of a very high chief Since
my residence here have noticed such to
be the case, and within the past twelve
months in fact, foreigners of long resi-
dence here accept this fish omen as fore
gone conclusion, and why not2 We all
of older and more civilized countries have
our myths and superstitions, so let US be
charitable towards the genial and hospit-
able natives we soiourn among.

NEW YORK, Jan. 3.-The law abolish
ing hanging in this state and substitute
ing electricity as a means of execution
went into effect Wednesday. The new
law applies only in cases of capital
crimes committed after Wednesday. As
the laws delay is proverbial in New
York, il is not expected that any Grim
inal will be put to death by electricity
this year. The legislature is to be asked
to amend that portion of the law which
provides that these executions shall take
place only in state prisons, as it is feared
the effect of such occurrences would be

DAVID B. HILI

| took the oath of Office in the assembly
chamber. While reading his annual
message h governor created some SEN
sation when he employed these words:
The necessity OF some change in our election
laws, whereby the Increasing corruption which
has become Incident to our elections, may
be prevented, Is imperative. 1t Is believed the
late presidential election was the most corrupt OF
any In the history OF the country, so far as the
direct use OF money was concerned, in influencing
electors, and public sentiment is naturally
awakened to the desirability of some relief. The
peculiar cause which induced this immense
corruption is apparent. Anxiety TO subserve sci,
fish and private advantages rather than the gem
eral interests OF the public, naturally led to the
campaign being conducted upon alleged "busI-
ness principles, whereby It ~ asserted the cleo
tors were bought and sold like goods and chattels
In open market. 1t Is claimed that at least
$100,oW were expended In tho Twentieth and
Twenty-fourth congressional districts in this
state, in the efforts made therein TO elect con.
greSsmen and secure electors believed to be.
favorable to the policy of fostering private inter
ests. SO successful have been the recent efforts
at corrupting the ballot box, that good citizens
ara led to doubt whether the free and unbiased
sentiments of the people may not continue to be
nullifiad through corruption, whenever and as
often as 1t appears that the interests OF the peo-
pie conflict With the interests Of the monopolists,
who, profiigate Of their money, are intent upon
resisting all interferences with their selfish and
arcogant demands.
Governor Hill recommended that a
joint resolution of the legislature urge
congress to adept constitutional amend
ments regarding the presidential term
and provision for ex-presidents. Gov
arnor HIS recomme dations are: First,
that the term of office of president and
vice president shall be six.yearss; second,
that Che president shall be ineligible for
reelection; third, that the president
shali Immediately upon the expiration Of
his term become d member of the United
States senate for life. and receive an
appropriate salary. This amendment
shall ,tpply to all living ex-presidents.
