"ONE SUMMER IN HAWAII"
Letter From the Author So Tribute
From Col. Sps cckels.
WASHINGTON, Jan. 80, 1892.

WASHINGTON, Jan. 80, 1892.
EDITOR BULLETIN:-
My Dear Slr,-I have read your
review of Zone Summer in Pawail," ]"
and thank you for the kind words
you were pleased to speak of the
contents.
The omission to put quotation
marks to the lines of Hon. II. NJ.
Daggett entitled "Waikiki'' was a
mistake of the type-setter, as they
appear in the manuscript and were
also in the first proof that read. l
regret it exceedingly, and l would
do anything in my power TO have it
corrected.
Since you have called attention to
the fact, may l not trust TO your
generosity to say, in your largely
circulated paper, that it was mis-
take, deeply deplored by me, and, if
| should be fortunate enough to sell
the first edition, shall make ample
compensation in the second.
Sincerely yours,
Mrs. HELEN MATHER.

KAHULUI NOTES.

The American 3-master schooner
Sadie, Captain Smith, arrived at Ka-
hului on the 18th inst, 10 days from
San Diego, Cal. She is fine new
vessel, only about sixteen months
old, and comes in ballast to load su-
gar for San Frsncisco.
The barkentine Kllkitat, Captain
Cutler, arrived on the 10Th inst. from
Port Townsend with full cargo of
lumber, laths and shingles for the
Kahului Railroad Co. The schooner
Beulah is due any day, having left
San Pedro, Cal, about the same time
the Sadie did.
The barkentine Robert Sudden and
schooner K. X. Wood are both load
ing sugar, the former will probably
leave on Wednesday, February oath,
and the latter on Saturday, February
27th, or at the end of the month.
The last few days heavy rain has
to some extent interfered with work
in the mills, but gives the country a
beautiful verdant appearance.

THE LANAI HORROR.

Frequently the most shocking
crimes are committed amidst the
most peaceful scenes. Isolation and
soIitariness appear to breed morbid
conditions of mind in those subject
TO such situations. The darkest hor-
rors in lands of civilization are often
reported from sparscly settled back
ton is far from any other and re-
mote from populous centers. 1t is
not that Nature in her undisturbed
keeps, with all the charms that poets
give her, provokes the tenants of her
bowers to homicide or misanthropic
freaks of any kind. Rather is it the
lack of the checks and balances
and stimulating influence of So
ciety-rude it may be but bound
together by mutual ties of self
preservation and common interests
which makes segregated families
or tribes and scantily peopIed com
munlties the easy victims of sud-
denly-coming influences of an ex-
citing character. With an extreme
paucity of social concerns to exer-
else them, the minds of solitarily
situated people have a tendency. to
feed on themselves and, with that
pabulum becoming exhausted, to
reach out for material to what wild
Nature may suggest to their imagina-
tions. Such people run naturally
into superstitiOus notions, and are
liable to be carried away into
the widest actions by only slight ex-
citation. This would appear TO be
the case of the family community of
Awalua on Lanai, the account of
whose shocking crimes is given TO-
day. In addition to their isolated
state, however, these unfortunate
Uawaiians were under the incubus
of traditional respect for the super
natural power Of the genus kahuna
(sorcerer). Any who may have regard
ed theintluence of kahunas at this late
day as having become deprived of its
force, except in case here and there
where the superstition is fatally in
voked in sickness to the exclusion of
modern medical science, will be
rudely awakened by this dark chap
ter of heathenish crime on Lanai.
The case is not exactly parallel with
the rebellion of Kaona, the religious
fanatic, in Kona in 1867 and 1868,
an account of which is given in the
late Hon. w. G. Parke's "Reminis-
cences." That case was more like
the recent Messiah" craze among
the Indians in the United States. Ka-
Ona and his wife took the Bible as their
shield and Duckler, materially, and
called on all people to join them in
preparation for a universal calamity,
under pain of death and the burning
of their houses to those VIII 0 refused.
They murdered Sheriff Neville and a
native constable, sent to serve a writ
of ejectment on them, before they
were overpowered and 78 of them ar
rested by military force over 100
strong sent from Honolulu.

ALIENS IN OFFICE.

The following extract from the
San Francisco Argonaut and notes
are from a country correspondent;
Congressman Bowers, of Califor-
MIA, has introduced bill to prohibit
the employment of aliens in any cap
acity in the governmental depart
ments, to which only citizens shall
be eligible. 1t is good measure,
and should pass. The appointment
or employment of aliens in the SER
vice of the government is contrary to
American sentiment in any case.
There are plenty of worthy citizens
in every instance upon whom to be-
stow the iavors of the government.
In the higher walks of government
service, as ministers to foreign courts
and important consular positions,
only native citizens should be APP
pointed. But in no event is the en-
ployment of aliens to be approved,
and it is not to be tolerated. Make
this the law and let it be adhered to.

MONDAY, FEB. %, 1892.

A country correspondent writes;
"What has become of subscriptions
collected for the Kalakaua Monu-
mcnt Association year since? 1t
is time for a report and statement of
what has been done in the matter. I"
The BULLETIN made enquiries into
the matter some time ago, and pub
lished the result, namely, that an
endcavor was being made to have a
meeting of the committee. 1t is
about time subscribers were getting
some sort of satisfaction.

The Ring Was
In Ills Boot I!

An interesting incident oc-
Cured at a wedding in Nyack,
n. Y, recently, says the AL
bany Argus. All went mer-
rily until the bridegroom was
called upon to produce the
wedding ring. In vain he
felt in his trousers pocket
for the indispensable article.
Nothing could be found ex-
cept a hole, through which
the ring had evidently fallen
into his boot. What was he
to do?
."Take your boot off," said
the parson. The suspense
and silence were painful.
The organist, at the domi-
nie's bidding, began a "vo-
luntary."
The young man removed
his boot, the ring was found,
also hole in his stocking,
and the minister remarked,
evidently with more than the
ceremony in mind, "Young
man, it is time you were mar
ried."
For appropriate Engage
ment or Wedding Rings, in
new ideas and odd shapes,

John F. Jones, Edom, Tex. writes

past six years, for Sore Throat,
Cough, Colds, Pains in the Chest

one wanting such a medicine
German Syrup is the best.

Charleston, Ill, writes: After trying

tons l had on my files and shelves
without relief for very severe cold,
which had settled on my lungs, l
tried your German Syrup. 1t gave
me immediate relief and perma-
nent cure. o
