Kalnk qua Objects 20 Severance.

SAN FRANcIsco, Augu 1O,-A letter signed
by a member of King Kalakaua's household
has been received from Honolulu, which
states that II. w. Severance arrived in
Honolulu by the steamer Australia to assume
the office CT United States consul general.
His majesty, King Kalakaua, declined TO
give him an interview; refused to accept him
as consul general, and only yielded to his
ministers under protest, saying that the re-
sponsibility must rest with them. The
reason given by his majesty fo- this action is
that Severance was dismissed from the office
OF Hawaiian consul In San Francisco for
cause. His majesty feels that the appoint
ment of Severance shows a lack Of courtesy
on the part of the United States government.
Notwithstanding this letter Severance has
been duly recognized as United States con-
sui general and official notice TO that effect
appears IN the Honolulu papers.

road, and j. ID. Williamson, president of the
Chattanooga, Rome & Carrollton road,
fought a duel at Hore's Bluff, on the Coosa

wounded in the right arm. The trouble
grew out of Williamson denouncing a state

A Report Current That the Thistle
is to Be Sold.

80 W. ~ 'ohs
tCor fright 1889 BY James Gordon Bennett
GLASGOW, August 10. New York Herald
Cable-Special to The BEE This week
it has been rumored in Greenock that Harry
North, son Of the nitrate king, is negotiating
for the purchase of the Thistle, with a view
of giving her another chance for the
Americas cup. If the rumor proves correct
North will have the call in the pick Of Clyde
racing men, as they are convinced that the
Thistle was not seen at her best, and the
Sandy Hook designero Of the Thistle. Watson,
has expressed the opinion that the Thistle's
lines are perfect, and that all she wants is a
center board.
A little difficulty has arisen from the
selling of Sir Richard Sutton's Genesta.
Those who make yachting a study have
found out that there Is a probability of a
second international cup appearing. 1t will
be remembered that the Genesta won in
American waters two valuable cups-the
Cape May challenge cup and the Brcnton
Reef challenge cup. A condition was at
tached to the latter, which insisted that
should the winning yacht be sold the cup
would require to be again competed for.
AS Lieutenant Beta Sayce has bought the
G~enesta, he will have to meet the challenge.

1t is one thing to have a grandfather
and another thing to have a grandson.
President Harrison is likely to figure in
our presidential history as being blessed
with both of these adjuncts. The DEM
ocratic papers during the campaign
sneered great deal because he was the
grandson of his grandfather, and now
democratic and republican papers alike
find large amount of fun in the fact
that he is the grandfather of his grand
son. Visitors at the White House,
that happens to be, and es-
pecially office-seekers, are sometimes
puzzled to know whose claims are more
worthy of consideration, their own or
the presidential baby's. We are glad
here is a baby in the Presidents fam
ily, for it furnishes variety in admins
ration gossip.

The organizing conventions of the
various new states in prospect are now
in session preparing their constitutions,
and making ready for admission to the
Union. Several new features are Sc
riously discussed, woman suffrage being
one of them. In the meantime Idaho
and Wyoming are taking the preliminary
steps to come in as states. The method
they propose is to organize and come
ready to be received. This has been
done in the case of some states, and no
reason appears why any state should be
rejected on account of the manner OF
approach. The fact and not the form
is the thing to be considered. The flag
business will be lively if a new supply
is to be furnished with every star that
claims place.

1t sometimes happens that family
living on an unfrequented road upon
the outskirts of community becomes
very much interested in the most triflng
