refusing to consider this demand. The

Dole to Willis demands secret until it

Dole begins by noting that this is the
first official communication his pover'l-

policy OF President Cleveland towards
Hawaii. BY no action of the Hawaiian
government has any matter connected
with the late revolution, says Dole. been
submitted to the authority Of the United
States.
The inside history Of the attempted
revolution of 1889 is then recited. The
events of the last week Of the Queens
reign are rchearsed. Dole also rccites
the attempted coup d etat, the cxaction
of the committee of safety and the two
mass meetings of foreigners and natives,
The committee deemed the presence oi
the American forces necessary for the
protection of life and property, and re-
quested Stevens to land them. Dole dc.
nounCes i'll the strongest terms the
statement that Stevens was ever asked
to have his forces assist in thercvolution
or that he ever did SO. The government
disclaims having ever authorized Damon
OR any other person to make terms tor
the Queen surrender, aud denies that he
ever reported or WAS asked to report
such terms. Never, says Dole, before or
since the revolution did the members oi
the committee of safety confer with
Stevens about the overthrow Gf The
government. The provisional govern
mcnt, he says, is responsible only
to those who instituted and
are now maintaining 1t in power.
1t is amenabe to no toicigu power on
earth. 1t has always been faithful 10 its
constituents and By no act or intiIna-
tion has ever offered to submit lis +, ,hts

fire made greater changes in the appear

than it was expected would be made by
six months removing of the buildings.
The Casino. where thousands spent
delightful hours watching the gay scenes
upon and about the grand basin, was
wholly destroyed. OF the Pcristyle, once
Illuminated with thousands of incandes

lied by endless enjoyment, nothing
remains. Its arches were burned away
and its stately columns, half burned and
charred, lie in confused masses upon the
brick promenade which surrounds it.
The colossal figures which surmounted
it oppled to the ground when their sup
ports burned away, and are broken in
pieces. Columbus and his heralds with
their war horses and chariot are
unrecognizablc among the mass of
ruins.
Music hall is likewise melancholy
heap of ashes. Save here and there
where twisted iron girder protrudes,

HE COMMITTED SUICIDE.
James Delaplaine, Once of This City,
Takes His Life.


A dispatch from New York received last
night gives an account of the suicide, in
that city, of James B. Delaplaine, former
resident of this city. Policeman McCor-
mick, to whom the complaint was male.
found the mans dead body in his room at
the boarding house of Mrs. Pereles, on sd
street. Beside the body was bottle labeled
"Prussic acid" When the policeman reach
ed the room the body of the suicide was
cold, death having occurred ten or twelve
hours before. The deceased had occupied
the room in the boarding house for about a
month. A memorandum on a table in the
room contained the name of the dead man 8
brother, w. ID. Delaplaine, whose address
was given as West Shore depot, Weehaw-
ken.
In the pockets of Delaplaine's coat We're a
schedule of rates on the New York Life In
surance Company, letter requesting him
to pay his dues a member of the Column
bia Athletic Club of Washington, d. c., and
another from lawyer firm in Washington
irclosing promissory note, with a request
that he sign it. Delaplaine was last seen
Wednesday night, when he returned to mis-
lodgings from the theater
Very little is known here of the dead man.
He Joined the Columbia Athletic Club about
year ago, and, although he was a frequent
visitor to the club, ne was not particularly
well known by the members. He always
seemed to have plenty of money and WAS
generous to the walters. While here he was
clerk in the New York Insurance Com
pany's office. Deceased was about thirty
years old, and 1t is thought that his suicide
was the result of dependency caused by
his failure to get employment.

SOLDIERS HAVE FUN.
Company ID, Light Infantry, Enjoy n
Pleasant Smoker.

Company Z Of the Washington Light In.
fantry Corps inaugurated the Inequalities
OF the winter by giving a musical and ath-
letic smoker at the armory last evening.
1t was not very serious sedate occa-
sion, but 1t was none the less enjoyable on
that account, and the example set by COM
pany d will be followed during the winter
by other companies, who Will give smol-
ers on semi-monthly evenings.
Long tables were spread with hand
some collation., and after this had been
disposed of by about 200 guests the fun
OF the evening began. Pipes of peace were
lighted and the speechmaking was begun
with an address of welcome by Col w. @.
Moore, which was responded to by Capt.
Miller, on behalf of the company. In the
program that followed Sergt. Jesse b. X.
Lee acted as master of ceremonies, and
played the part with great success.
The following members of the company
did an excellent turn on the German horse
and parallel bars. H and c. Given, Nc
Cabe, Barghausen and Harry Lee. Then
the Imperial Banjo and Mandolin Club,
composed of G. Rearden, c. Jones, F. Wal
lard and F. Jones, gave several selections.
The wrestling bout between Harry Lee OF
company ID and Ernest Schafhirt, C. A. c..
was an excellent exhibition of the work on
the mats. The sparrlng bout three three
minute rounds, between William Barghaus-
en- and Harry Given was also declared a
draw. Prof. John Crossley, C. A c., was
referee of the two contests. The Ariou
Quartet. composed Of Robert Lowery, A. o.
Simonds, w. j. Rich and a. Smith, rem
dered selections, and Capt. James Cathell

sang a tenor solo. The cornet solo. SPLEEN
diily rendered by Elphonzo Youngs, jr., was
followed by the Hula Hula" dance from
the Midway by six members of the company
in costume. which made decided hit, and
brought the entertainment to a close in a
most spirited manner.

Motive of the Japanese War.

The following extract from a letter re-
Gently received by gentleman In this city
from young Japanese student who has
just returned to japan from the United
States is of interest as showing this Japan
csc point of view in looking at the motives
of the present war:
This war naturally keeps every Japan
csc busy and alert. I wish you could see
all the sorts of patriotic demonstrations
now going on among the Japanese The
whole nation is on fire, so to speak. But
do not misunderstood our motive for this
war. We do not mean to fight for fight 5
sake, nor do we mean to glory in our vic
tory or conquest. Our motive is nobler
than that. We mean in the first place to
help Corea in the struggle for real indie
pendence AMI citizenship; and in the second
place, we mean to wake up China from its
long dream of ignorance and dullnesS. Jus
tice is our motto, and civilization is our
object. The present situation of Japan
toward it's neighbor, China, is in many re-
spects like that of the United States toward
Japan some fifty years ago"

DIR. PARKIIURsT IN THIS CITY.
His Visit Here Last winter Was the
Turning Point I'm His Campaign.

An interesting incident in the struggle for
good government which was inaugurated by
Rev. Dr. Parkhurst of New York city has
a local bearing. 1t will be remembered that
last winter shortly after DR.. Parkhurst be-
gan his crusade he was invited to come to
this city and deliver an address on munich
pal government. He accepted this invitation
and spoke to large audience in the Church
of the Covenant. The visit of DIR. Park
hurst to this city was in response to an IN
yitation from Rev. DIR. Hamlin, the pastor
of the church, who had secured the cooper
alton of number of members of his con-
gregation. Last spring Dr. Parkhurst said
in the course of a public address In New
York city that the visit to this city and the
reception which he received was. In his
opinion the turning point in his campaign
against municipal corruption. Prior to that
time he had practically stood alone and
had not received support and encourage
ment from the best element in the commun-
ity. Subsequently, however, he found that
public sentiment. was turning in his direc-
ton.

He Was Forgiven.

James Graham is seyenty-one years old,
and has liT>d in this city nearly twenty-five
years. For some time he drove the dead
animal wagon for the District and how he is
living with relatives. Yesterday, for the first
time in six months, the old man got drunk,
and last night he violated an ordinance of
the District and got arrested. Judge Kim
ball heard the case today and listened at
tentively to the old mans plea for clemency.
He told the court Of his employment as
driver of the dead wagon and of how he
got drunk yesterday after keeping sober for
six months.
How cid are you?" the Judge asked.
''Seyenty-one years." he answered.
Then don't you think 1t about time to
reform? Your hair is gray and it will not
be very lon before you will be laid away
and you had better be thinking of that and
do better. This time l will let you go ard
1 hope in the future you will mend your
ways"
The old man, with tears streaming down
his cheeks, thanked the court and went

Reason Points to Cod.

The fall course of lectures at the Catholic
University, which have been so popular in
other years, was resumed yesterday after
noon with an address by Bishop Keane,
the rector OF the university, on THE Two
World PHILOSOPHERS" With brief refer
ence 70 the value and Importance of his
torlcal study of his subject, Bishop Keane
proceeded to an analysis OF the two antag-
CniStic world philosophers, which, for TWEEN
ty-fVe centuries, have Swayed the minds
of students and thinkers. This he did I'M
der three heads or epOcnS, the first dating
from the time of Socrates, in the fifth cen
tury preceding the Christian era, the sec
ond embracing the early days Of Christian
ity and the asCendance Of the Roman EN-
pire, and third including modern philosophy
down to the last decade of the nineteenth
century. The logical deduction of Bishop
Keaue'S lecture was that cur reason points
straight to God and that the Christian
religion alone solves the problem of the
universe.
