Massachusetts are going out of Office gracefully.

It as easy as possible for President Mckinley to

land Administration. he made practically n

Chicago Convention in 1892. and the reformcrs
pointed him out as the style Of politician that
followed the fortunes Of David Bennett Hill.
But this did not trouble Mr.. Donovan. He kept
right on removing Republicans and surround

that pn'i5y. Not only is the union a
the Hawaiian territory to the United
States no new scheme. but ii is the
inevitable consequence of the relation stead
lastly maintained with that mid-Pacific domain
for three quarters of century. Its accom-
plishment despite successive denialS and post
ponements has been merely question OF time.
While its failure in 1898 may not be a cause Of
congratulation, it is certainly a proof
of the disinterestedneSS of the United
States, the delay OF four years having
abundaatly suficed TO establish the right and
ability OF the Republic Of Hawaii to enter as q
sovereign contractant upon a conventional
union with the United States. thus realizing q
purpose held By the Hawaiian people, and
proclaimed by successive Hawaiian govern
ments through some seventy years of their virtu-
al dependence upon the benevolent protec-
ton of the United States Under such circum-
stances, annexation is not a change. it is a con-
summation. The report of the secretary Of
state exhibits the character and course Of the
recent negotiations and the features Of the
treaty itself
The organization and administrative details
Of incorporation are necessarily left to the wis
dom of the congress. and can not doubt when
power shall have been accomplished, the duty
OF the national legislature in the viii
be performed with the largest regard for the
interest OF this rich inSular domain, and for the
welfare of the inhabitants thereof.

The Natural History Building OF the Uni-

Iy Damaged.
CHAMPAIGN, Ill, June 1s.-At one
o'clock this morning the natural his
tory building at the [ University of Hi
nois was struck by Zig thing, resulting
in damage to the building, furniture,
apparatus and library of probably $751;
900. The building itself is damaged to
the extent of $500, and the loss
on the contents can not be accurately
ascertained for several days Every
thing in the building was watersoaked.
The building was erected in 1861, at a
cost of S1O2, 900, and the value of the
furniture and apparatus was 1925, 900.
The building was occupied by the de-
partments of botany, zoology, ply siol-
ogy, mineralogy and geology. 1t
also contained the Office and
equipments of the state laboratory of
natural history and of the state en-
tomologist, and the Office and library
of the agricultural experiment station.
The work of repairing the damage will
be commenced at once, and all will be
ready for the opening of the fall term
at the university.

Partly Reduced to Writing, but the Work

WASHINGTON, June 1S.-Mr. Calhoun
has been in frequent consultation dur.
ing the past two days with the presi-
dent and Assistant Secretary Day in
an endeavor to discharge himself of so
much of his mission as will enable him
to return to Illinois tomorrow to at
tend to some pressing law business.
He will return to Washington, however,
next Wednesday, to resume his labors.
The special commissioner already
has reduced to the shape of a written
report, some of the results of his OBJ
servations, but his work is far from
complete. It is probable that the find
ings of Mr. Calhoun in the end will be
entrusted to Mr.. Woodford to take
with him to Madrid and support such
representations as he may be charged
to make TO the Spanish government.
1t is also likely thatupon Mr.. Calhoun's
return to Washington next week full
conference will be held between him
and Mr.. Woodford.

The murders, which were four in num-

might be called wave of suicidal
hysteria set in, and several young
women killed themselves out of sheer
