SCOTT WILSON'S HAWAIIAN BIRDS.

Many of our readers may remem-
Der the visit some few years ago
OF Mr.. Scott Wilson, F.Z.S., the
energetic and eminently successful
ornithologist, who whilst here
made a most valuable collection of
Hawaiian birds. We have been
privileged with permission to ex-
anime a paper g On some of the
birds of the Sandwich Islands" by
this gentleman, which he intends
as I" a slight sketch, to be elabora-
ted in the large work which be
hopes to publish on the ornithology
of the Sandwich Islands," but
which now constitutes a number of
a periodical devoted to bird-science,
called the Ibis"
Before touching on the main sub
ject Mr.. Wilson gives an interest
ing description of the principal
forest trees of the Islands, with the
altitude at which each species
fiourishes. most abundantly, and
adds some very pertinent remarks
on the imminent danger of deforest-
ing large tracts of land, which, he
Justly says, " would lose much OF
their charm were their native
birds, conspicuous for the brilliancy
of their plumage, and remarkable
from their peculiarities. to be re
placed by the noisy Mynah, the
pugnacious Sparrow and the Singa
pore dove" Mr.. Wilson was able
to secure several specimens OF tht
90" but believes that the still
more valuable IS Mamo," Drepani;
Pacifica," is absolutely extinct; &.
the only specimen be was able t.
get was from the collection of Mr.
Mills 81 Hilo, formed thirty year
/ ago.
This number is illustrated by ;
most beautifully executed coloret
Autograph of two varieties o
the Akihiloa, "Hunyuathus," which

he names the III. Hanapepe and tn
FL. Steinegeri.
We can only say that if Mr.. vii
sons larger work be carried OG
and completed in accord with thi
fragment, it will be companion vol
ume worthy to take its place besid
Mr.. Sinclair's Flora of Hawaii, an
what greater commentator coul
we give.

Obituary..

We are sorry to mention that
death has visited our community
and taken the beloved wife of Noah
Humberston. Mrs. Jone Hum
bertson was born in 1885, and died
Sept. II, 1891, aged 5G years. The
interment took place on Sunday,
Sept. 13, on the home farm. The
cause Of her death was typhoid fe-
yer. Mrs. Humbertson lived quiet
life, devoting her time to the cares
Of her family. She was always
ready to lend helping hand to
those needing assistance. She was
the mother of thirteen children,
four of whom are dead. Those sur
viving her are married. We can
sympathize with the husband and
children, for the mothers love is
indeed the golden chord which binds
youth to age. NJ.

short time. got several bottles
and gave it around among my neigh
bors who were afflicted in the same
way. | think l gave it to a dozen

The Medal Contest.

An elocutionary contest took place
in Offutt's Hall on Friday evening
last in which seven young ladies and
one young gentleman contested for
a silver medal offered by W. Jen-
nings Demorest, of New York.
Medals were offered for the purpose
of educating the young people in
the principles of temperance and
prohibition of the liquor traffic.
Each contestant was marked in
voice, articulation, gesture, men,
ory and general effect, and could
attain possible score of ten each
or a total of fifty points.
Prof. A. A. Line, of Pennsylva-
mia, e. S. Hamill and Z. J. Peddi-
cord were selected as the judges.
The medal was awarded to Miss
Martha Hinebaugh who made forty
three points ont of possible fifty.
All the recitations were very credit
able and the young people reflected
great credit upon those who trained
them. This contest was gotten up
by the Lutheran congregation and
will doubtless be followed by others
from other churches and Sunday
school or temperance organizations.
