kALUA DEAD
THE W4T4LEALE BRINGS
THE NEWS.
a LinSerinS Illness Removes
One of Hawaii's Lead
ing Men.

News reached Lahaina yesterday
morning announcing the death of
J. W. Kalua in Wailuku. The in
telligence reached this city by the
Waialeale, but very few particulars
could be obtained. Mr.. Kalua had
been suffering from an attack of
fever for about a month, but no
serious fears had been entertained,
as he was getting better. Tuesday,
however, he had a relapse, which
ended in his death the following
day.
John ". Kalua was a native of
Molokai. He was educated at
Lahainaluna Seminary, and grad
uated there. In 1869 he was
found studying medicine in
Honolulu with DR.. Judd. Later he
turned his attention to the law, be-
ing a student in the Office of Judge
Judd, later with Judge Davis, and
entering in 1876 upon practice.
He was quite successful in lis pro-
fession and had a good practice,
figuring in some important cases.
OF late he has acted as the attor-
nev of the Hawaiian Commercial
and Sugar Co. in Wailuku.
It is as a politician, however,
that Mr.. Kalua was most widely
known, and in this capacity he viii
be longest remembered. He was
one Of the best speakers the natives
ever had, was a natural orator and
could carry an audience with hin
better than any other native. Hi;
great power was strikingly illus
trated in the general election o.
1882. Discredited at the time
among foreigners, he did no
make up his mind to rur
until a few days before the
election, when he took The
stump and swept the district, be
ing returned by a large majority
He was a member Of the Legisla
lures of 80, "a, SO and go. Il
'S7 and 'SS be did not run, anC
in 1890 he was defeated in La
haina by Wm. White.
Mr.. Kalua was not merely activ'
in his profession and politics. II
was a working member Of the Kaa
/ humanu Church in Wailuku ant
has done a great deal toward build
ing If up. He was active in tht
! Sabbath School and established
strong branch Of the \. NJ. G. A
in Wailuku. He took an aotiv
part in the movement against tn
lottery bill, and helped to circulat
the monster petition against it, an
has undoubtedly exerted a power
ful influence for good during th
last few years.
He visited the United States i
1877, and the visit was helpful +
himself, and helped him in helI
ing others of his race to more civ
ilized views. He was free from tn
stain Of superstition which stil
fingers among so many Hawaiian
and was regarded by those wh
knew him best as a really er
lightened man. His loss will b
keenly felt on the island Of Mau

German
Syrup

The majority of well-read phys
icians now believe that Consump-
ton is a germ disease. In other
words, instead of being in the con-
stitution itself it is caused by innu-
merable small creatures living in the
lungs having no business there and
eating them away as caterpillars do
the leaves of trees.
A Germ The phlegm that is
coughed up is those
Disease. parts of the lungs
which have been
gnawed off and destroyed. These
little bacilli, as the germs are called,
are too small to be seen with the
naked eye, but they are very much
alive just the same, and enter the
body in our food, in the air we
breathe, and through the pores of
the skin. Thence they get into the
blood and finally arrive at the lungs
where they fasten and increase with
frightful rapidity. Then German
Syrup comes in, loosens them, kills
them. expells them, heals the places
they leave, and so nourish and
soothe that, in short time consump-
tives become proof and we'll. 8

In the bone caves of the south Of
France have been found figures Of rein
deer. mam1noths and men cut on horn
or ivory, and evidently executed BY art
lists contemporary with the Elephas
primigenius. The men are represented
with short. bent legs, and seem to stand
or walk in STOPPING manner. with the
body bowed slightly forward from tie
hips.
Now pass your hand down the back Of
any infant under ten months old and
feel the spine at the loin or lumbar re-
gion, where in the adult modern naa
the back is hollow or concave. You viii
observe that in the babe it is convex
like that of a quadruped "a ten-month-
old baby is practically quadruped);
and though the child can. perhaps. get
on its legs with the support Of chair,
it does not straighten its thighs and
stand upright, but is bent forward in the
same posture Of the cave dweller. whose
portrait has come down to Us from the
age just succeeding the last glacial
epoch. If the support is removed the
child falls forward and again becomes a
pseudo quadruped. -Blackwood's Maga-

The "GoId snake

A Mexican superstition. very common
among miners in that country, relates
to the ''gold snake" This species Of
serpent is perfectly harmless and very
handsome, being green in color and
with a golden iridescence in its scales.
Faith is entertained that wherever a
gold snake makes its nest there is a
ledge containing the precious metal, and
there are many miners who will locate
a claim at once if they find gold snake.

Hold still, demanded Mart. "Letme

He seized his knife and quickly hol-

There, hold your hand down and let
the blood run free, while tie this cord

He twisted the stout cord until it cut
into the arm.
Now, the whisky he gasped.
'sNo, said Robbins, ''let me cut the
poison out Of your wound. .
Mart held still moment while this
was done
Now, the whisky-quickw cried Rob
bins.
But Selby did not look for the bringing
forth of the flask with any light of hope
in his eyes.
1T is yours, he said quietly. "There
is only enough for one, and barely that. .
Then it is yours. Mart"
'No-yours''
'sBut you are the worse bitten. Your
face is already beginning to swell.

There was anguish in the tone, as there
was heroisin in the words; but it was

the bottle at arms length, while he
turned his face away.

in firmer and more commanding tone
from Mart Selby. You have mother
and a sweetheart back III the states.
And II have nobody. There was some
one once, but there amt nobody now
nobody at all"
In the face of this fearful temptation
Robbins felt himself weakening. He
grew less strong Of resolution with each
tick of the watch in his pocket, heard
so plainly i'll tho desert stiffness. What
a coward he felt himself; but-how
sweet was life
Was there not help to be had from
some other source? He could not take
this. The drinking Of that liquid was
the drinking Of Selby's life, and that life
meant much to him now. Here was the
whole man.
His eye swept the hopeless plain. He
looked for the dust" of a traveller, but
he saw none. The heat of the day was
growing. He thought he felt the poison
pulsing through his veins.
Mono" he said, sinking down upon
the sand. And there was pitiable
weakness in his tone.
Selby took the bottle from his hand.
As he did so shade of fear arose to
Robbins face Selby saw it and smiled.
The swollen face made the smile gro
tesque; but none the less it was the smile
of god. He came forward and knelt
beside the crouching form Of Robbins,
who, lying on his face, with his eyes
shut, begged him not to think of him,
but of himself. But the tone was grow
ing weaker.
The other said no word, but lifting his
friends head he uncorked the bottle and
held it to his lips. a look Of remon-
STRANGE came to Robbins face, and he
raised his hand to push away the bottle.
Just then he glanced upward A buz-
zard was circling about in the clear,
blue air. He shivered, and as the neck
of the bottle was forced between his
teeth and Selby was holding back his
head, how could he help swallowing:
The look Of remonstrance faded slowly
away as the liquor gurgled from the
bottle. Soon it was all drained. The
boys head sank to the ground and a
heavy sleep laid hold upon him.
When he awoke there lay BY his side
the body Of man with pistol bullet
