The attorney general amended Sec
ton by dividing it into three separ-
ate sections, to be known as Sections
z, 3 and 4, relating respectively to
the possession, sale and penalty con
corning explosives.
Minister Damon said the matter
was one of so great intricecy that he
thought the matter should be ap
preached very cautiously. The use
Of giant powder here was 50 neces-
sary that he thought it would be
jddicious to postpone the bill for the
present. He did not think the present
bill was explicit enough, and there
fore moved its postponement.
Attorney General Smith said that
as several members were absent and
the bill was an important one and
should be carefully considered, it
might be as well to allow it to lay
over to later meeting. However, he
believed a stringent law was needed
relating to explosives, otherwise than
ammunitions for hanting, and did
not consider it hardship that these
should also be otherwise
the law would soon become a dead
letter.
Mr.. Emmeluth thought the matter
could be cured another way. Persons
could be licensed to use dynamite as
they were now licensed to use fire
arms. This plan would be more
effective than to attempt to record
each individual amount of dynamite
used.
Minister Damon said that sections
and were to guard against dyna
mite, and explained the remaining
sections. He thought if sections 1
and 3 were passed they would cover
the case.

bill was laid upon the table, to be

KILAUEA.
Hawaii's Wonder at the Worlds
Fair.


A neat little guide book which
will tell you something about
''both the volcano in Hawaii and
the one at the Worlds fair" has
been issued by the company hav-
ing the matter in charge. The
book gives a succinct description
of the great volcano and tells you
just where and how to find its mi
mic reproduction at Jackson Park,
Chicago. 1t is nicely illustrated
with six photo-gravure plates of
typical scenes at Kilauea and con-
cludes with the following descrip-
ton of the statue Of Pele erected
on the midway plaisance -
"While the volcano is stern real
.ity, it has its poetry in Pele, the Ha-
waiian Goddess of Fire. Hawaiian
traditions are filled with tales of the
wars, loves, and doings of heroes,
ing Pele are the most numerous, ro-
mantle, and sanguinary. The tradi-
tons say that she was the most beau
tlful woman that ever lived and the
most capricious. She made her home
on various islands from which she was
successfully driven by her great
enemy, the water god Kamapuaa,
who had the body of a man and the
head of hog. She finally took
refuge in the volcano of Kllanea,
where she maintains herself to this
day, although she occasionally visits
the great crater at the top of Mauna
Loa. She had the power of changing
her form and associating unknown
among the people, which she fire.
quently did. Whenever her wrath
was excited, she would turn into
lava flow or throw masses of hot
rocks and overwhelm her enemies. A
statue of the fair goddess, 25 feet in
height, has been erected over the en-
trance to the volcano building. It
represents her at a moment when
her anger has been kindled. She is
seated upon a lava flow, torch of
fire extended aloft in one hand aud
mass of lava which she is about to
throw in the other. Her hair is
blown wildly back, and there is
terrible frown upon her beautiful
face, as she prepares to annihilate
her enemies. The statue is the larg,
est but one in the entire Fair
grounds. 1t was designed, modelled
aud executed by Mrs. Ellen Rankin
Copp, of Chicago. 1t is a thoroughly
artistic production, worthy OF the

Mr.. Nordhof on the Hawaiian
Middle.


To the editor of the Transcript ::
A sudden non-organized domestic
revolution on the Hawaiian Islands
has brought their annexation to the
United Sattes prominently before
the public. Newspaper men have
been sent there to observe the sit
uation. Notably among them Mr..
Charles Nordhotf, who goes as a
partisan of the New York Herald
to gather facts and arguments to
fortlfy its position already an
nonnced of anti-anneXation. No
correspondent better fitted for the
work could have been selected than
Mr.. Nordhof, who, from his visit
TO the islands about 1873 to the
present has never failed to oppose
and scout the idea of the United
States having any commercial or
political relations with the islands,
other than that of a "hands Off
policy, such as might beit the re-
lations of the United States to any
of the tribes in Central Africa.
The cabinet of General Grant in
1876 and that of Mr.. Cleveland in
1887 differed from Mr.. Nordhoff
and adopted a policy Of CONNER
cial reciprocity which has bound
the islands irrevocably to the des-
TIMES of the United States this re-
suit having been an understood
sactor of the bargain, so to speak,
when made in 1876. 1t was for
seen that when the reciprocity
treaty should fail, either by abro-
CATION or by changes in the tariff
of the United States, rendering
the treaty valueless to the islands,
the question of a more intimate
connection would Immediately
arise, involving the sequence that,
having through a favorable COM
mercial policy of fifteen years de-
veloped the islands into a garden,
the United States would be called
upon to decide whether to accept
this garden, or abandon it to others,
or let it revert again to its original
insignificance.
This is situation and ques-
ton, not sprung upon the islanders,
either native or foreign, but one
contemplated and thought upon
for years, with the accepted con.
clusion that some day it would
come to the front and was capable
of but one solution, so far as the
native autonomy is concerned.
The decadence and disappear
ance of the native race, continuing
uninterruptedly for the last fifty

The recommendation made by the
finance committee and approved by
the council, that the road board draw
in payment of pay rolls and expenses,
from their special deposit in the treas
ury; that the special guards at the
Aliiolani and Kapuaiwa buildings be
paid off and discharged; that the as
sistant store keeper at the custom
house be dropped after June 80, 1913;
that one clerk at salary OF SlOO per
month, instead of two at $3.50, in the
bureau OF public works be retained;
that the appropriation for the Para
disc of the Pacific be discontinued
after June so, 1898; that the office OF
deputy registrar of conveyances re.
main untitled; and that the position of
clerk to the board of education remain
untitled, have all been carried into
effect. This will effect a monthly
saving to the general treasury OF over
$1,000.
The removal of the tax Office from
the Kapuaiwa building to the Judi
ciary building, in the room formerly
occupied by the registrar or puollc
accounts has been accomplished, and
all taxes hereafter will be paid at that
office.
The minister of finance acknowl-
edges with pleasure the cheerful re-
turn of reports from the different de-
parfmentS and a readiness to assist in
reducing expenses wherever practi-
cable.
At the close of the report Minister
Damon explained that 1t seemed to
be next to impossible to get all the
vouchers for the pay roll, in at the
end of the month. He also spoke of
the determination the department
bad arrived at to curtail expenses.
The matter had been brought up in
cabinet meeting, where 1t had met
with favor. They did not intend to
make wholesale reductions or to cut
off offices beedlessly, but whenever it
was found necessary, action would be
taken upon that line.

Asylum Management.

A great deal has been said in tho To
peka papers lately about the loossness
with which the insane asylum has been
run. Much is made of the daily or
weekly escape Of inmates, and it was
said last week in the Journal that the
many escapes were due to the inefa-
ciency Of the new attendants appointed
by the new board Of charities. The
Capital said that one Of the new doctors
went out and that the attendant forgot
to lock the door. The facts are that tho
state board Of charities has not Rp-
pointed single attendant at the Topeka
asylum. The new doctor referred 10 in
the Capital was DE-. Thompson, the re-
publican hold-ovsr. In fact, nearly ell
the escapes from the asylum have been
made from DR.. Thompson's wards. The
board has only appointed two doctors,
three supervisors, one mail driver, one
stsnogrspher, two house kse"ers, one
sesmstress, one baker, one farm hand,
one druggist, one painter and one sngi-
nser. Making total Of fifteen persons

vention, and extend to her our cordial
