 Half mile south the house of a Mir. Davis, whiy man, was completely demol- ished but with the exception of few painful bruises all escaped.
 John kuffet's wagon was blown away, and much of 1t has not been found yet. The granary of Nick Hardis, two miles Jones (colored) was wrecked. and her 4Xsar-old daughter Lorilla was perhaps fatally wounded by hailstohes.
 A passenger train passed just as the cy- clone swept by, narrowly escaping it. All previous accounts or immense stones and wind dwindle into insignificance in com parison with this storm. Many of the blocks office were from 15 to 1Sounces in weight and others found after a warm rain and warm weather were. larger than a goose egg. Two of these missiles passed through the roof of C. E. Thornton's resi- dence, making hole like a cannon ball, while fowls roasting in the trees were killed by the hundreds.
 A COW belonging to T. Frank Lawson was killed, and stock bear many marks from these ice stones. About 800 window lights were broken in this place, while farm fences and fruit trees were prostrated for miles around. Full particulars will doubtless swell the casualty.

DA CANA HAS ESCAPED.
Insurgent Admiral Sails Of on
 a Portuguese Warship.
SEVENTY OFFICERS GO WITH HIM.

It Is Thought That the Rebels Will Be
 Landed at Buenos Ayres, Where They
 May Join De Mello-RevoIting Crime In
 London.
 RIO JANEIRo March 19.-Judging from the course of events here, it is thought by impartial observers that the Portuguese government does not intend to honor the request made upon it for the surrender of Admiral da Gama, who was lately in com mand of the insurgent fleet before this city Admiral da Gama took refuge on the Portuguese corvet Mindello when the insurrection here collapsed.
 President Peixoto demanded that the ad- miral and the officers who were with him be delivered into his hands. The Portu- guese minister declined to order the com mander of the Mindello to surrender the fugitives, and President Peixoto appealed, it is said, to the Portuguese government to instruct it's minister to order the surrender of the insurgent officers. Whether reply has been received to this request or not cannot be definitely stated, but Sunday the Mindello and the Albuquerque, anoth- CT Portuguese warship, having on board Admiral da Gama and 70 of his officers, put to sea.
 It had been thought in some quarters that if the vessels attempted to leave the bay with the fugitives on board trouble would ensue. There was not, however, the slightest opposition to their departure, and as a matter of fact trouble arising from this source was never probable.
 The destination of the warships is not known. It is conjectured that they will go south to Montevideo and land the in- surgent officers there If they are landed at Montevideo, they can easily, if they are so disposed, join the insurgents in the states of Sac Paulo and Rio Grande do Sul, who are still in armed opposition to the government. The fact that Admiral da Cana and his officers have succeeded in getting out of the bay is a matter of great rejoicing among their friends in this city. There is no doubt in the minds of any body that had the admiral been surrendered to the government his trial by drumhead court martial would have quickly follow ed. There could have been only one re- suit of this kind, and that would have been sentence of death

change the system of government into
an Asiatic despotism like that of Jo-
hore, and to deprive the white race in
time of all voice in its administration.
He made systematic efforts to demor-
alize the native population, by the re-
vival of sorcery, by removing the pro
hibition of the sale of liquor to the
natives, and by fomenting race hatred
and jealousy under the guise of ma
tionap feeling. He abused his ap..
pointing power without stint, and
packed the Legislature with subser-
Went office holders. He employed car
pet-bag adventures and renegade
whites as Cabinet Ministers to carry
out his schemes. At last his conduct
became so infamous that an uprising
in 1887 of nearly the whole population
of every nationality, together with
the better class of natives, took place.
1t compelled the King to sign a re-
viscd Constitution which put an end
to personal rule, and gave the white
element a voice in the Government.
By this instrument the administration
was placed in the hands of a Cabinet
responsible only to the Legislature,
while fica holders were made ineli-
BILE to seats in that body. The remain
ing th ~ee and half years of his reign
teemed with conspiracies and intrigue
to restore autocratic government, in
which his sister, the eX-Queen, is
known to have had an important
part"
"What of the ex-Queen and the last
revolution?"
NEITHER sPECULAToR NOR PIRATE.
"Grave apprehensions were felt at
her accession TO the throne, which
were partially relieved by her
promptly taking the oath to maintain
the Constitution of 1887. In her pub-
lished statement she affirms that she
signed it unwillingly. The Supreme
Court decided that the late Cabinet
expired with the King. This gave her
an opportunity to dictate terms to the
incoming Cabinet and to secure con-
troll of appointments. Her first con-
dition was that the notorious favorite,
C. B. Wilson, should be appointed
Marshal, with control over the whole
police force of the kingdom. He sur
rounded himself with a gang OF dis
reputable characters, and associated
openly with moo ious opium SNUG
glers, while opium joints, gambling
houses, etc., hourished with the con-
nivance of his police. At the same
time, he was known to have more in
fluence in the administration than
any member of the Cabinet. The
Queen then formed an alliance with
the agents of the Lottery Company
by which she expected TO conciliate
the support of the unthinking popu-
lace and secure a revenue independent
of loans. The proclamation OF a des-
potic constitution in which the whites
were to be disfranchised would have
her scheme, and was eX-
pected to be popular with the major
ity of the natives.
'FThe revolution has been fully vim
by the dispatches of Minister
Willis, lately given to the public"
Such is the verdict of as honest
man as ever lived. He Is neither
nor pirate" 1t may

A DIFFICULT EXPERIMENT.

at was a difficult experiment to
carry on constitutional government
of the Anglo-Saxon type with mix
ed population like that of the islands,
but it was undertaken by a group Of
men of rare ability; and for thirty
years it appeared to be fairly success
full. Both King Kamehameha III.
and his advisers saw that in order to
maintain an independent government
it was necessary to combine the na-
tive and foreign elements in one COM
mon organization for the good of all.
He and the two next kings of the Ka-
mehameha dynasty had some concept
ion of their position as, constitutional
sovereigns and of the proper policy to
be pursued toward foreigners. They
did not regard themselves as merely
kings of the native Hawaiians, and
they generally exercised their powers
in accordance with English preced-
ents. They availed themselves of the
advice and assistance of the best white
men In the country, without whom
the experiment would have failed in
the outset. During the reign of Ka-
mehameha V. reactionary tendency
began to show itself among the ma
tives, and the former good understand
ing between the races began to be
impaired. One cause of this was the
withdrawal of the American Board of
Missions. 1t was a fatal mistake.
Thus passed away class of white
men who were unselfishly devoted to
the interests of the natives, and who
possessed their confidence. They act
ad r,1ndiafnrc hatu
and that portion of the white popula-
ton which had less regard for their
rights and welfare.
Another cause was the premature
extinction of the order OF chiefs, who
were the natural leaders of their race,
and whose part could not be filled by
plebeians or foreigners. The scourge
of leprosy, which has compelled the
enactment of severe segregation laws,
has helped to widen the breach be-
tween the races. The consequences
were seen in the lawlessness and race
hatred that broke out in Lunalilo's
reign"
THE EXTRAORDINARY DEVELOPMENT.
"Wlll you briefly sketch the reign
of KalakauaW
"Durng kalakaua's reign there was
an extraordinary development of the
resources of the country produced by
foreign enterprise and capital, and a
large increase of the foreign element
in the population. King Kalakaua,
however, seemed to consider himself
as merely a Hawaiian chief, and to
regard the white residents as alien in
vaders. His object seemed to be to
