THE HAWAIIAN WOMEN.
One LOudly Declared That " We
Can Wear the Pants"

The second business meeting OF
the Hawaiian Women's Patriotic
League was held at Arion Hall on
Thursday P. NJ and lasted from 2
until 3 o'clock. About four hun
dred ladies were present. None OF
the sterner sex were allowed at the
meeting, not even the Honorary
President of the mems League.
Members of the lady committees
were posted at the various entran-
ces and kept out number of gen.
tlemen who wished to gain admis-
sion.
President Mrs. F. w. Macfarlane
and nearly all the lady officers
were present. The presiding of
fcer made few remarks. Several
of the gentlemen who watched the
proceeding from outside, declare
that the ladies conduct their meet
ings with greater business acumen
than the men do.
The corps of ladies on the tinan-
cial and executive committees
have done good work since organ
ization. The committees turned
into the treasury $401.35. The
ladies will present a memorial to
Commissioner Blount during the
week.
Quite number of those present
were not members of the organiza-
ton. As soon as a representative
of the fair sex made an appearance
she was hustled inside with great
rapidity by Joseph Nawahi who
was chief runner in"
One partly looking female leag-
uer stood at the gate to stand off
which she did in great
shape. She kept loudly declaring
that I'VE can wear the pants"
which no one doubted after once
hearing her voice.
The Hawaiian gazette., 1893-04-04

heard the Hawaiian Band playing
their music; and again in more fren-
zied moments the whim would strike
him that man-of-war had arrived
and would soon blow our island to
pieces. His insanity was of a quiet
harmless nature, SO it is reported.
During Saturday evening, the 25th
inst, the Hawaiian members of sew
eral churches enjoyed a musical
evening at Keokea, Kuls. An eager
couple, taking advantage of the pres
ence of several divines, added to the
festivities of the occasion by getting
married. A native Sunday school
convention took place in the vicinity
on the following day.
During Thursday, the 30th inst,
three fathers paid between them
damages to the amount of 500 for
the playful antics of their sons. One
Sunday, not long ago, three Portu-
guese boys and one native played
with some cane-cars belonging to
Pais Plantation. In consequence of
this sport some of the cars ran off the
track and were wrecked. In the suit
for damages which followed, Judge
Copp thought that the fathers should
partially make good the loss to the
plantation. Jno. Kalama was attor-
ney for the defendants and Messrs.
Kslus and j. Richardson appeared
for the plaintiff.
G. H. Dickey, Esq, departed for
Honolulu on Friday to attend a
meeting of the Board of Equalization
(Tsxes).
During Friday, the 31st of March,
the schooner Heeia arrived in Kahu
lui from Honolulu. She brought up
the Waimanalo's last weeks freight
and made the trip in six days. Just
imagine, ladies and gentlemen of
Maui, what feelings of horror would
arise if the Claudine and Waimanalo
should both break their piston rods
and you were obliged to take a six
days schooner trip to Honolulu.
The Alden Besse. Fries, master,
arrived in Kshului on Sunday, the
18th inst. She brought enough gen
eral merchandise to act as ballast and
made the trip in about nineteen days.
Weather: The aerial elements
were surely out of kilter during the
early part of the week. There was
electricity in abundance during Sun
day and an inch of rain fell during
the night. During Monday heavy
rain took place, measuring 80 inches
at Makawao Court House. On Wed
nesday, showers. Good Friday was
pleasant and April Fools Day de-
lighttul, though. few foolish pranks
have been reported up to date.

CHANCES IN OFFICES.

Several official changes have
been made within the last few
days. The most important OF
which is the retirement of A. S.
Cleghorn from the Custom House.
There are three aspirants for his
place. S. B. Rose, the chairman
of the Board of Fire Commissions
ers, has rendered his resignation as
such. 1t is understood that Mr..
Roses retirement is due to the fact
that his private business will not
allow him any time to devote to
public affairs. DR.. F. L. Miner
has succeeded DR.. Peterson as
prison physician. ]. A. Mehrten,
who has been acting as Deputy
Marshal, has been removed. His
successor will not be appointed for
the present. ]. Mort Dat has been
given the Office of Postmaster-Gen-
eral.
1t is understood that the next
change on the programme is the
retirement of Captain Trip, the
jailor at the prison. 1t is claimed
that he is rank royalist and as
such has no right on the pay roll
Of the Government.

FIRED IN THE DARK.
a Government Soldier Picked
Ont for TARGET,

On Tuesday morning about sc
o'clock some person with murder
in his eye took a shot at H.
Kruger, one of the soldiers en-
ployed at the Barracks. Kruger
was on guard duty at the rear of
the Barracks and while he was
walking on Beretania street, just
opposite Miller street, the shot was
fred. The guard Immediately ran
across the street but his assailant
had escaped.
For some time number of
natives have been congregating at
night on the Washington Place
grounds, where the deposed Queen
resides. On last Monday night
Captain Klemme of the mounted
patrol noticed eight men in the
place, but when he rode up to
question them they scampered
away towards the rear of the build
ing and were hid from view.
This is not the first outrage
which has happened in that vicin-
ity as some time ago some drunken
English sailors attempted to take
away gun from one of the guards.

samoans at the Worlds Fair.

James r. Watson, secretary for
the A. Crawford Company, re-
ceived a letter from H. J. Moors, of
Apia, which states that definite
arrangements have been made with
the Samoan Government to send
twenty-five natives TO the Worlds
Fair, and that they would come up
on the steamer Mariposa, due a
month hence. A request to secure
accommodations for the party and
cheque for advance expenses ac-
eompanied the letter. The natives
are of the better class, and seven or
eight of them saved many lives at
the wreck of the war vessels Tren-
ton and Vandalia.-S. F. Chronicle.

AN OFFICIAL VISIT.
Commissioner BIount Calls on
President Dole.

United States Commissioner
Blount paid an official visit to
President Dole and the Cabinet
Thursday afternoon about 4 o'clock.
He was accompanied by His Elk
cellency John L. Stevens, United
States Minister Plenipotentiary,
who presented Mr.. Blount to the
Cabinet. Mr.. Ellis Mills, Mr..
Blount's private secretary, was also
present.
The Commissioner presented his
credentials to this Government.
and after doing so he made a short
address in which he assured the
Cabinet that the United States
Government had only friendly
feeling for the Provisional Govern
ment. President Dole responded
in fitting terms. The audience
lasted for about forty minutes.
Commissioner Blount in answer
to a question put to him by an
ADVERTISER reporter stated, 81 will
be here for some time" Heck
pressed himself as being delighted
with Honolulu, and said, 81 think
it is dreamland."
