from heaven. At last they found that
they had been deceived-that Cook and
his English sailors were not gods, but
grasping, lying men, not half so
near divinity as they themselves.
Then Cook was murdered. And
if, full of the knowledge OF the first
wrong that had ever entered into their
childish lives. they helped his death
along with fitting torture, is 1t to be
wondered at? Now, at Kawaloa, in the
blue shadows of one of Hawaiis love-
liest mountains, within the sound of
the gentle smurmur of the worlds
bluest sea- and surrounded by magnifi-
cent palms, marble monument, at
which all Hawaii does homage, stands
above the moldering bones Of the muir
dered man.
A Gentle People.
If the natives were malicious and
man-eating, then they have changed
marvelously since, for nowadays it
seems impossible for them to believe
man is bad. With them you are their
friend until you have thrice proved
yourself their enemy, and even then
you need but ask forgiveness to receive
their love again. And to be Hawaii
an s friend is to be little less than his
master. His deeds of kindness stop
The islands are as beautiful as the
people are good -natured. Never ceas-
ing verdure, which invades every nook
affording flngerhold for clinging ten
drill, until it is hard sometimes to guess
which is habitation and which is thicket;
towering mountains, often capped by
inextinguishable volcanic fires instead
of snow; winding valleys, through
whose bosky depths crystal streams
glitter in the summer and change to
raging torrents in the rainy season-all
these are there with other wonders-all
beautiful. By the wayside grass cot
tages for the natives and pretty wooden
structures for the foreigners offer open
hearted hospitality to the tourist.
Breezes always blow. They blow health
to the foreign invalid but. alas! they
sometimes blow horror and death to the
native.
Leprosy is decreasing In Hawaii, it Is
said; but still the famous leper colony
on Molokai, one of the most beautiful
islands of the group, does not lack ten
ants. Narrowing farewell scenes are
not unusual at the isolated Honolulu
wharf from which the leper boat sails.
"Aloha!" murmurs the departing one,
which means farewell. Aloha! aloha"
cry the dear ones left behind, and they

ashes in the extremity OF their grief, for

She dipped her fingers into water,

spots disappeared, leaving row of

Trees and Lightning stroke.

The statistics lately compiled by
d. Jonesco concerning the conditions
under which trees are most likely to
be struck by lightning are of great
interest. 1t was for long time sup
posed that certain kinds Of trees were
particularly subject to destruction by
lightning, while others were quite
free from danger. Among the first
was the oak, and among the latter
was the laurel. Mr.. Jonesco now
finds that at very high potential e'ec-
trical discharges all kinds of trees are
subject to destruction by lightning.
Trees containing oils are least sub
ject to be struck, those containing
very much oil being protected the
most. Lightning appears TO prefer
those trees which contain starch, also
those which contain oil to slight
degree only, in summer. The quan.
tlty of water contained in the tree
has no effect on its liability to be
struck. Dead limbs of trees contain
ing oil, are particularly likely to be
struck. Cambium, bark and leaves
do not alter the conductivity Of trees.
The nature of the soil has no connec
tion with the frequency Of destruction
of trees by lightning.

Bigger than wisconsin.

Bigger than Wisconsin.
Hawaii, land Of smiling sunshine and
rushing rain, place of paradise and
abode OF torment! Ten little islands
sleeping in the sea, where Incidence and
industry meet and mingle; where COM
merce thrives incredibly, and idleness
exists in its LATEST perfection! At once
a health resort and breeding-place Of
humanity's most frightful scourge!
Where Natures most refulgent luxuri-
ance creeps to the very edge Of pits
where Natures most malignant anger
ever boils and bubbles, and sometimes
reaches out a sinuous arm OF molten
lava to cngnlf town and murder thou
sands! Hawaii is truly strange little
nation-a strange little nation in strange
little lands with strange little people.
But with all the straDgeness OF them all
they are marvelously rich now and
richer yet in future possibilities.
Ever since this group of oases on
Paciflc's watery desert was discovered
by Captain Cook and claimed by Van
couver, the Sandwich Islands have been
indefinitely regarded as the home OF
cannibals. AS matter of fact, no in
stance of cannibalism has ever been
proven against them. The natives doubt
less gained their reputation for ferocity
through the killing of Captain Cook.
But Captain Cook appeared among them
claiming and believed to be god. For
weeks he and his sailors basked in the
credulity of the natives, who voluntari-
ly despoiled themselves of whatever
they valued most-from quaint, carved
trinkets to their wives-to make their
peace with the white skinned emissaries

year. Among the commodities which
helped to make up these surprising to-
tails were sugar, coffee, pulu Ia silky
vegetable fiber) and hides. 1t will be
observed that this little water-locked
nation is not TO be lightly sneezed at as
commercial entity.
Wholly American In sympathy.
When Queen Liliuokalani was de-
posed, it was not surprising that her
subjects should apply for bit Of the
protecting warmth found under the
wings Of the American eagle. For
many years the islands have been en-
tirely American in sympathies. The
whole population, except the 5000
or 5000 Englishmen, Germans and
Frenchmen, is more American in spirit
than 1t Is Hawaiian. For years 1t has
been not unusual for residents, whether
they had ever visited this land of the
free or not, to refer to it as home.
and, should one contemplate coming to
see us, he would very likely speak OF
the projected voyage as going home. :"
The agricultural products Of the ISL
ands are, besides sugar, to which more
than seventy large estates are devoted,
rice. Of which 2.455 tons were exported
in 1883; some coffee, pineapples. oranges.
msngoes. custard, apples, guavas, maize,
and wheat. Besides these. great guam
titles OF kalo are raised, and to the fact
that it needs practically no cultivation,
and that patch forty feet square will
produce enough food to support native
for year, is chiefly attributed the indo-
lence of the islanders. Sheep and cattle
are raised to some extent. There are
only few sheep owners in the islands,
but their fiocks are large. In 1878, the
latest figures obtainable, 523, 900 pounds
of wool were exported. The commerce
between the islands and the United
States practically began in 1876, when a
| trade treaty was signed.

How the Queen Laid Idolatry Low.


How the Queen Laid Idolatry Low.
Yet while they live they are brave
and muscular race. There are few
weak-minded ones among them. al
though intermarriage of families was
until recently common. In everything
except facing unseen death they are
courageous. The queen, who was re-
Gently deposed, once gave as ma9nifi-
cent an exhibition of will power and
heroism as any woman ever did.
Her subjects had been forbidden
to worship Pele, the god of the vol
canoes, many years ago, and had almost
forgotten him when an eruption oc-
Cured which threatened to overcome
Hilo, on the east coast of the Island OF
Hawaii. Hilo Is smaller than Honolulu,
the capital, but much more beautiful.
It's trade Is trifling, but as health and
pleasure resort it is popular with both
natives and foreigners. 1t is the Paris
their Chicago. The great river of lava
was slowly but surely descending on
the city. The then reigning Princess.
thinking that Pele was powerful after
all and was sending the lava in anger,
prayed to him three days and nights.
Then, at the very back door of the city,
the lava stopped and now forms gilt
tering gray wall behind the town. This
revived the faith Of the islanders in
Pele. When Liliuokalani came into
power she decided to unseat it
and announced the fact through
out her kingdom. The Queen went
to the volcano Of Kilauao, in whose
molten crater Pele was believed to
abide. 1t had been considered sinful
and provocative of certain death to eat
ohelo berries without first offering some
to Pele, but as the Queen went she
picked and ate ohelo berries, meanwhile
singing a song OF defiance to Pele. 1t
was dramatic, and may seem silly here,
but it was the only way In which she
could, as she did, remove the last vestige
! of idolatry from the Hawaiian Islands.
She ventured into the very heart Of the
crater, stopping Only when the lava on
which she walked burned her shoes.
But Pele harmed her not and she de-
rided him. Since then all Hawaii has
laughed in his face, and eaten ohelo
berries when and where it pleased.
The native Hawaiians, with their
rich brown skins, their big liquid eyes,
and their supple, energetic limbs, are
| far from being an unhandsome race.
