LATE intelligence from Hawaii is to
the effect that the people of that coun-
try are preparing to make an effort to
regain possession of the government
thereof, and expel the American fill
busters who, by the active assistance OF
ex President Harrison, seized, and by
the acquiescence of President Cleve-
land, continue to hold it. What
they may or may not do is no
concern of this government, and the
recent experience of its interference
with the affairs of other countries will
it is hoped by those really interested in
its welfare, be sufficient to deter it
from practicing any more jingoism.

daughter, Mrs. Clinton Davis, who liv-
ed on farm near Jamestown, y. Y.
were murdered by unknown persons
Saturday. Mr.. Shearnian had gone to
attend the funeral of his son and daugh-
ter-in-law, who were killed by train
a day or two since. When he returned
home be vas Mortified to find his wife
and daughter lying dead in the house.
There is no clue to the perpetrator #
the crime, although it is apparent that
the motive was robbery. The murder
following so closely the violent death
of two other members of the family
has nearly unseated the reason of Mr..
shearman, who is about seventy years
of age.
