Various Happenings In the Sugar Dis
tricts - A Leap Year
Party, Etc.

KOHALA, (Hawaii), Jan. 10
All the mills in the district are at
work and the harvesting of the
crop of '96 has begun in earnest.
Owing to better distribution rain
fall during the past year, the yield
of sugar gives promise of being
materially larger than it has been
during the last two or three seasons.
We are experiencing the rainy
weather common to this time of
year. But so far no heavy rains
have fallen, and for the last few
days it has been perfect harvest
weather. On one or two nights
lately the mercury dropped to near
ly 60 deg.
It is reported that there are a
few cases of whooping cough in the
district.
The early receipts of foreign
mails has been exceptionally gra-
tifying during the past two or three
weeks. Wilder's Steamship Com
pany announce a five days mail
service in future for Kohala, the
Likelike coming in midway been
trips of the Kinau.
Add to this the probability of
another Kohala Senator in the
Legislature, and you can scarcely
wonder that this intellectual centre
feels a deep content that has been
for years.
The election of January 9Th was
very quiet, little or no electioneer-
ing being apparent. AS the total |
vote was declared tie, each citizen
who failed to cast his vote must
feel a heavy responsibility. Ex-
plantations of the same will be in
order.
The usual New Years dance was
postponed until the 3rd, and as
great many felt worn out with
holiday festivities, the attendance
was smaller than usual, still very
pleasant time was had.
New Years eve was the occasion
If dinner party given by Miss
Hall at her home in Multi, and on
he same evening the Literary
Circle discussed some of Shake
spears plays. at DR.. Bonds resi-
lence. There were six interesting
papers read discussing as many
we'll known characters, besides
music and other entertainment.
"a leap year ball was held at the
Music hall on Wednesday night.
The ladies of the district provided
everything and took entire charge.
All that the men were allowed to
10 was to look pretty and wait till
they were asked to dance or prom
enade or receive the thousand and
)ne little attentions that usually
all to the share of the other sex.
Though these rules were not strict
y adhered to, still it was a most
pleasant departure from the cut and
Tried forms of etiquette. And the
evening was from every point Of
view a brilliant affair and a de-
,ided success. 1t was the largest
public gathering for some time. It
S to be hoped that this is only the
irst of a series of such delightful
social events during the winter.

About you clings a faded, old world air,
As though the link boys crowded round your

As though the Macaronis thronged the Mall.
And the French horns We're sounding at VauK

They tread the stately measure to its close,
The silver buckles and the silkCn hose,
Ladies' and cXquisitcs that bend and sway,
Brilliant as poppies an an August day.
You dance the minuet, and we admire.

Whose rTlsset idyl seems a mere burlesque,

And faithful shepherds still shall babble on.

Everybody knows that the earth makes
one complete revolution on its axis once
III each "a hours. But few, however,
have any idea of the high rate Of speed
at which such an immense ball must
turn Ill order to accomplish the feat Of
making one revolution III day and "A
night. A graphic idea Of the terrific
pace which the old earth keeps up year
after year may be had by comparing its
speed to that Of a cannon ball fred from
"A modern high pressure gun. The high
est velocity ever attained by such a mis-
sile has been estimated at ,626 feet Der
second, which is equal TO mile in
) 2-lO seconds. The earth, in making
one complete revolution i'll the short
space of "a hours, must turn with n
velocity almost exactly equal to that Of

has created better demand for home &C.

the market there are symptoms Of coming op-
