SHIELD AND CROWN.

The only metallic ornaments to be
placed upon the casket, in which will
be enclosed the coffin with the re-
mains as sent from California, are
silver crown and a silver and gold
shield. The crown of solid silver,
nearly five inches high, is fastened
six inches from the shield towards
the head of the casket. Surmount-
ing the crown is Maltese cross, and
both crown and shield are mounted
upon polished blocks of kou wood.
The shield or plate is eleven inches
in length by eight inches broad at
the widest part. Beginning at the
upper end of the plate is a small
gold crown resting upon the stems
of two small fern leaves wrought In
silver which border the upper part.
Immediately beneath these is the
Hawaiian coat of-arms worked in
gold and enamel, with colors red,
white and blue, and on the center of
this is the Kings crest in gold. On
either side of the royal arms is a
gardenia branch containing each a
large gardenia flower, while at the
top part of the branch, a tuberose.
Underneath the coat-of arms is in
scribed, in raised letters the Hawaii
an motto" I'm mau Ike ca ka Alma

established in righteousness)- upon
a golden ribbon. Next is engraved

A COFFEE ENTERPRISE.

We are glad to be able to put be-
fore our readers some reliable par
nculars OF what appears to be one
OF the most promising undertakings
ever set on foot in these islands,
that is, The Hawaiian Tea and
Coffee Company (Limited).
In casual notice of this COM
pany in our Summary for the
last month, published on the 10th
inst, we gave bare outline of the
work as proposed In a prospectus,
We are now in a position to enter
more fully into detail.
By next June the company ex-
poets to have planted eE... Leo acres
and in successive years to raise the
area under coffee to possibly 500
acres by an annual increment OF
80 to 100 acres.
The land obtained for the pur-
pose is in the district of North
Kona, inshore of the landing at
Keauhou, and not very far from
Kailua, an already frequented port
of call. In the fourth year from
planting, say in the summer of
1895, the crop of the first hundred
acres should be ready for the mar
ket, and this estimated at only
Id. per tree, would return at Is
cents, the sum of $4,000, but there
is every reason for BELIEVING that
both the yield will be larger and
the price higher than the above
estimate The following particu-
lars of coffee plantation in the
Samoan group are believed to be
trustworthy. At the Otu-matu
Plantation, on the island of Upolo,

one Of the most attractive and accomp-
ished of contemporary actresses. Her
career has been spent in the highest class
of dramatic work, and many as have been
her successes, it is as the gentle and dainty
"Viola" that she has won her browning
triumph. OF all Shakespeare's heroines
Of comedy "Viola" is assuredly the most
wholly feminine and lovable. In beauty
of form and feature Miss Wainwright en-
tirely realizes the Maid of Messalina, and
her musical voice and finished elocution
bring out all the meaning of the poetic
lines.
Twelfth Night" is, of all the comedies
Of Shakespeare, the one that appeals to
the widest general audience, for the broad
humor and laughter-provoking fun
are as amusing as anything ever
seen in modern farce. The duel and
carousal scenes, as played by Miss
Wainwright and her clever company "go"
with splendid spirit, and the actors are in
variably recalled. In the company are
those veteran Shakespearean comedians,
Barton Hill and William F. Owen, who
appear as Malvolio and Sir Toby. Among
the others are Percy Brooke, Edward Els

THE "ExAMINER" ON FELTON'S
FIGHT.

The following from the San Francisco
Examiners Sacramento correspondent
throws a new and an agreeable light upon
the contest made by the successful candi-
date for Senator from that state. After
review of the influences that led up to the
withdrawal of De Young, which was
mainly resentment toward the Stanford
railroad contingent, that paper says:
Honest legislators who were for Estee as
against De Young when FELTON, had no chance to
win were for FELTON, when he stood on even
terms with Estee and the latter was making his
fight with the scum OF the earth
And they admired the way that FELTON, had
made his fight, as men always will admire
courage. honesty and self-denial. Here was a
rich man. whose friends were rich, who had said
he would not buy vote, nor would he let
friend spend dollar on his account. To all kinds
OF propositions from all sorts OF men he had only
one answer: This Office must find nv
hands Clean when it comes to them or will not
have it, and what viii not do for myself my
friends shall DO for me- The honest men in the
authority men here against whom no suspicion
has ever rested, saw in FELTON, the only hope
there was to rescue this legislature from the
infamous character ii has earned as a whole"
This from the leading Democratic paper
in California, but late the property of the
Democratic Senator whose seat was being
filled, should be sufficient answer to the
seurrilops assumptions of the Democratic
press of this city and vicinity.
