BAN kRA1foEaOo, Feb. THE fol-
owing sdrices have arrived 70 day
from Honolulu to February 9Th, via.
the Steamer Alameda:
President Dole's answer to Minis
ter Willis giving specifications regard
! ing bis former letter OF, Decembef,
I 9th, which was asked for by Willis,
has been published, explaining his
previous statement that the United
Statee policy was responsible for the
maintenance of the provisional forces
and the State of alarm which existed
throughout Hawaii WAS due to the
failure of the United States to advise
the Hawaiian government OF its in
tended action.
President Dole says thaton Decem-
Der 14th the United States dispatch
boat Corwin arrived in Honolila
from San Francisco bringing dis.
patches TO yourself, No mail was
allowed to be brought by her but the
press OF Honolulu obtained FROM per-
sons on board and published extracts
OF President ClevelAd's message;
but for such accidental information
nothing would have been known OF
the purport of said message until
December Odd. Up 10 the time of the
arrival OF the Corwin the United
States naval officers in port we're in
the habit Of coming ashore in civilians
dress; the crews received the usual
liberty on shore and no unusual war.
like preparations were visible on
board. Immediately upon the ar
rival OF the Corwin the liberty Of the
crews was stopped, and also that of
the officers. Those who came ashore
were in uniform; stacked rifles, car
fridge belts filed with ball cartridges
and knhpsacks packed for immediate
use were conspicuous on the decks Of
the United States war ships. Officers
who we're seen said they were ready
to land at q moments notice. When
asked il their landing would be to
protect or fight the reply of the otfi-
Gers OF the Philadelphia was that no
one on board knew what orders would
be received. Information came from
Royalists in constant communication
with you that the restoration Of the
Queen was certain, and. that the
United States would use force il
necessary.
In explaining why he accused the
Uniten States government of un-
friendly actions President Dole cited
the fact that Willis had refused to
forward to Honolulu the advices by
the Corwip, and closed by saying.
Il cannot but believe that the atti-
tutle OF the United States toward HA.
waii has arisen through a misunder-
standing on the part of your govern
tnent and mutual misapprehenslon
OF the motives and intentions, which
will, / trust at an early day be cleared
away"

AufC graph Time Recorder.

An ingenious clock with special a..
tachment has just been put on the mar
ket for recording the work done by
individual workmcn in electric light and
power stations. The clock which drives
the record dial is supported in cast
ing. the ends of which are securely fast
ened to wooden frame. The record
dial is divided by parallel radial lines
into thirty minute spaces, so that a rec

started, the space for each record being
appropriately indicated. 1t is absolute

stated intervals, as in case of failure
to do so the portion Of the dial which
presents itself at the proper moment
for his inscription will pass on under

the exact time each dynamo was start

each has been running, besides giving
all the information necessary for ascer-

Foolish Birds with String.

Those people who cannot view the
multitude of blossoms on their cherry
trees with unmiXed delight, owing TIC
thoughts of hungry robins later in the
season, may like to try plan recon-
mended for the discontinue of these
too aggressive sOngsters. This is to
put spool of the coarsest white thread
on a long pole so that it will wind
off when walking with it around the
tree. and with it make a sort of netted
shield for the cherries. These numer-
Gus cross-stretched strings, fastened on
the outer margin of the twigs, brighten
off the birds. Their cuteness suspects
a trap. 1t is the one successful device
against crows in a sprouting cornfield;
a number of lines Of string stretched
around and across corn field scare
away the cunning and suspicious black
arauders.-Lewiston Journal.
