WHEN ENVELOPES WERE USED.
Prof. Lyons Has MissiVes Mailed in
1850 and $50, but no Stamps.

Mr.. EDIToR:-In Saturdays is
sue of your paper I see the state
meht reported as having been made
by Mr.. H. NJ. Whitney, former
master-General, that envelopes
were not used in these islands for
ordinary correspondence till
after 1860.
Envelopes were introduced here
about the year 1850, and while a
great many letters were for long
time after addressed in he old
Way, i.e., on the back of the written
sheet, still 1 beg to say, with all
due regard for the author, that the
above statement is misleading his
torically, and may prove a stumb-
ling block TO stamp-collectors. The
term "ordinary correspondence Z"
applies, no doubt, 10 inter-island
letters.
l have twenty-four letters, all
inter-island, addressed to myself,
and dated between December 1850
and December 1858. Of these, ten
are addressed on the back of the
written sheet in the old way, and
fourteen were inclosed in envelopes,
of which last the greater portion
still remain. I am both happy and
sorry to say that one of these en-
velopes is from my good friend Mr..
Whitney himself, and has " Post
office, II. NJ. W." printed on the
sealing flap. =,
Of the ten without envelopes, all
but two are from points outside
of Honolulu. AS Mr.. Whitney,
living at that place, would natur-
ally receive his mail from such out
side points, it would, no doubt,
seem to him as if all ordinary cor
respondence was without envelopes,
which view Of the case will pro-
badly explain his statement. Three,
however, of my envelOped letters
were from Hilo.
Please now do not allow your
philatelist readers to frantically
besiege the writer for old Hawaiian
stamps, for he has none.

The second public address will
be given Thursday evening at z 80
under the auspices of the Honolulu
Teachers Association, the subject
being, "VIllage improvement"
While the doctors field of public
action COVERS a vast range, to no
subject has he given deeper study
than the work Of village improve
ment societies. Thursday nights
lecture will be prepared particu-
larly TO suggest improvements that
may be brought about in Honolulu.
On Saturday evening DR.. North

Bows school on the "OWnership of

man Suffrage" in Wyoming, but that
is the proud place she occupies, and her
story, and the story Of the origin of wo-
man suffrage In Wyoming, is an inter
estinR one. Mrs. Morris located in Wy
oming in 1867, and her Kindness soon
made her the idol of the miners Of South
Pass, who declared that she was the
"best man in the camp" Her views Of
woman suffrage became we'll known,
and she was so popular that every man
in South Pass would have given her the
right to vote had he possessed the power.
One Of them did give her the right.
He was W. II. Bright, an ex-colonel in
the Confederate army who kept a sa-
loon in South Pass When the territory
Of Wyoming was organized in 1868, he
was elected to the first legislature. He
left his wife and baby in a boarding
house and went to Cheyenne, where he
was elected president of the territorial
council. During his absence the baby
became i'll, and doctors bill used up
all uf Mrs Bright's money. There were
100 miles of mountain road, piled high
with snow, between her and her hus-
band, and before needed funds could
reach her she was turned out of the
DO1TuluH uOuSG hOLuGE AhOIIlS llGdE0
Of the young wife's troubles and like q
good Samaritan gave the wife and baby
q home.
When Colonel Bright heard Of the
kindly ministrations Of Mother Morris
and remembered her longing for the
ballot, he entere5 upon q vigorous wo-
man suffrage campaign. On Nov. %.
1869, he introduced bill giving every
woman in Wyoming the right to vote
and hold office. He met with considera-
BILE opposition, but used his great power
as president of the council to such good
effect that tho bill was passed and be-
came n law. The next legislature re-
pealed the law, but Governor J. a.
Campbell vetoed the repeal measure. and
when Wyoming became a state the law
stood and still stands on her statute
books. Through Bright's influence
Mother Morris was appointed a justice
Of the peace, and it is said that she
made an excellent dispenser Of justice.

EPIRIT LAKE MONUMENT who were cross
Ing the continent in quest Of California
gold, and Of these one of the most pic
turesque was that of Spirit Lake on East
Okoboji lake, in Dickinson county. 1t
was not far from the trail of the western
emigraDt trains and in 1857 had a pop
ulation of 80 persons. On the day of the
massacre four of the inhabitants hap
pened TO DO. away, and their lives were
thus spared. OF the remaining 46 the
merciless Sioux massacred 40 and car
ried four into captivity.
Among the four was Abbie Gardner,
who was an infant at tho time. She was
held captive for four months, and with
her three companions was ransomed by
the state. She married q man named
Sharp, is still living and was largely in
strumental in persuading the Legislature
that the graves of the pioneers should
be marked in fitting manner. Her plea
was answered at the last session of the
general assembly, Of Iowa by the passage
Of a bill appropriating 50, 900 for the
Spirit Lake monument, as it is called.
The monument has been erected and
Will be unveiled III O short time. 1t is
90 feet high and is formed of alternate
squares of rough and polished granite
At the top is a capstone shaped like an
arrowhead.
In addition to Mrs. Sharp another
survivor, Mrs. Marble, is still living
Mrs. Sharp now owns the cabin and
grounds where the massacre occurred
and has established there a summer re-
sort and q museum which is filed with
mementos OF tho original settlement
and the massacre. She also has claim
before tho Indian depredations commits
sion in Washington for indemnity on
account of the loss Of her fathers prop
erty at the time of the Sioux raid.
