Representative Maguire said to THE
CALL correspondent tonight that he did
not wish it to be understood from an inter
view with him published in the Star on
Tuesday night that he favors the restora-
ton of the Queen to the Hawaiian throne.
He said that he approved of the senti-
ments expressed in Gresham's letter to
Cleveland, based on the supposition that
Blonnt's report represented the true state
of affairs in Hawaii at the time the Pro-
visional Government was established. At
the time Gresbam's letter was published
he had confidence in Blount's judg-
ment, and basing his opinion upon
Blount's report believed that the
affairs in Hawaii should be allowed
to resume the status existing there
before the overthrow of Queen Lili-
uokalani In short he believed that
the administration should disavow and re-
pudiate the acts of the Harrison admin
stration if they were in contravention of
constitutional principles and the law Of
nations. Since his published interview,
however, Mr.. Mcguire has in some degree
revised his estimate of Blount as states

says: "The proposition OF the Cleveland

adjoining houses and badly damaging the

the explosion was so great that it was felt

The supposition is that the dynamiters
expected the first c0ncussion to set off all
the other cases. Had this occurred there
would have been great destruction of

The Ceremonial Use of Tobacco.

Since the worldwide diffusion of the
tobacco habit its earliest and perhaps
original use has been in great meas.
ure overlooked. With the aborigines OF
America smoking and its kindred prac-
tices were not mere sensual gratiica,
tions, but tobacco was regarded as an
herb of peculiar and mysterious sancti.
ty, and it's use was deeply and intimately
interviewer with native rights and cere.
monies.
With reasonable certainty the pipt
may be considered as an implement the
use of which was originally confined tc
the priest, medicine man, or sorcerer, in
whose hands it was a means of commu.
nication between savage man and the
unseen spirits with which his universal
doctrine Of animism invested every OBJ.
iect that came under his observation
Similar to this use of the pipe was its
employment in the treatment of disease
which in savage philosophy is thought
to be the work of evil spirits. s.-Johr
