HONOLULU, Jan. 17.-Since the last ad
vices but little of importance has happen
ed here. The people are preparing for a
great blowout" in celebration of the
anniversary of the establishment of the
provisional government. established a
year ago. The annexationists and the
American league have gone into the cele-
bration with will. Adverse comment
has been created by the fact that yester-
day afternoon notice was sent to the
United States minister and the captains of
the United States men-of-war PhilaGel-
phia and Adams, by the provisional gov
ment. that the 18th of January was the
national holiday. and asking them if they
would honor it by public notice and
saluteS from the war5hips. At o'clock p.
~ yesterday the reply Of Minister Willis
WAS received, stating that he found it i'm
possible to be present and to participate in
The celebration, Upon receipt Of this mes
sage the widest excitement prevailed III
government circles. The situation at the
present writing is one in which the annex
ationIsts ars standing shoulder to shoulder.
The royalist question remains: Can this
strained condition of affairs last. 1t will
be hard to decide, with both parties claim
ing the vantage. Minister Willis has un-
doubtedly decided against the Americans
here. On the other hand, the American
party has decided against Minister Willis
and Consul General Mills The fight is
still on; the result will be interesting.

and, going outside of the wooden
shanty, it seemed to me that the entire
world was on fire. 1t cracked and
snapped, danced and jumped as IL the
demon of fire was holding high car
nival and celebrating the end of the
world. From every side could be heard
sounds like the firing of cannon and
the shriebs of human beings. II was
the falling Of the boughs and the sigh
ing of the Wild, but never heard so
horrible a sound. nor witnessed so
weird and terrible a sight. Hastily
awakening the other men in the camp,
] mounted horse and fed from the
flames. But the horse could not kccp

were at molten heat; the air was

in length, and in spite of these precau-

The primitive dugouts used by tho
natives for travelling on the rivers arc

selves-go at each other hand over
hand like a sailor climbing up the rig
ging. and they invariably try for each
others heads. As / said before, forget
your antagonist has a head if You are
forced into fight. just take aim at
the place where you think his chest
protector stops and let drive at it.
There is not one man in ten thousand
can stand crack there. 1t takes
months of training to make q mans
stomach hard enough to receive even q
medium blow there. Then If you want
to spoil his beauty and leave your Wis
iting card with him in the shape of q
black eye, you can do it at your leisure,
for the fellow who is hit in the bread
basket forgets all about his body above
that, for the time being, anyhow"
