DR.. ID. G. Brintou, the archaeologist,
said in recent lecture that in North
and South America no less than 120 or
100 absolutely distinct languages exist.
As the growth of language is very slow
he thinks the fact of the existence of SO
great variety of speech on the west
ern continent proves that the native
red men have inha bited them for many
thousands of years. Another proof of
the antiquity of the American Indians,
according to DR.. BriDtOn, is the fact
that they represent a distinct human
type, and the formation of such a type
reXuires Thousands of years.

Mary Ann BascOmb be, of Stapleton,
S. l., is justly considered to be one
of the most remarkable women in
America. She was born in little
frame house at Gordon and Broad
streets, Stspleton, fifty-six years ago,
and began life at twelve years OF age
as maid OF all work, receiving as wages
but fifteen dollars year, yet from this
humble beginning she has succeeded,
through her own unaided efforts, in
amassing fortune of over five hum
dred thousand dollars. She continues
to live in a modest house, on the side
where she was born. She has told her
own story in the following words:
My maiden name was Mary Ann Nc
Donougb. My father was Thomas Nc

A BIT OF HISTORY.

Mr.. Poepoe's letter to the Adver-
tis'-r is hardly worth the attention
it ha3 received A. the letter writer

ed from his pen. 1t il not abuse to
say that the matter Of the letter is
puerile, unworthy Of person who
has enjoyed the advantages that Mr..
Poepoe has
The Independent. [volume] (Honolulu, H.I.) 1895-1905, 1897-09-11

If the point which Mr. Poepoe
makes is sound then any action of
Hawaiian King prior to 1851 must
have more force, because of priority.
In Hawaiian history we read that
"the name of Captain George Van
couver is still cherished as that of a
wise and generous benefactor to
these islands, he gave them
(the natives) useful plants and seeds,
and presented Kamehameha (the
first) with the first cattle and sheep
ever landed in these islands. On
the 25th February, 1894, Kameha-
meha and his chiefs voluntarily
placed Hawaii under the protection
of Great Britain, in token Of which
the British flag was hoisted on the
shore at Kealakekua."

TRYING TO BE A LADY.

Poor Liliuokalani is trying hard
to be real lady and forget that she
was born savage. And, wonder
full to relate, she is not receiving as
much encouragement from the pub
lie as one might think che deserved.
AS ull-hedged barbarian the ex-
Queen is prime curiosity, but
when she ignores her immensely in
teresting past and tries to ape us in
everything, then she is decidedly
stupid. Still, it is mean to unearth
disagreeable little incidents belong
ing to the days when this ambitious
woman dwelt in darkness, and right
and wrong were not properly focus
ed in her dim vision, according to
our civilized eyes. They do say that
several years back Mrs. Dominis
took part in a little function that
would have been quite proper only
in Rider Haggard's "She." 1t all
came about through celebration
in honor of a popular goddess in
the Hawaiian Islands, Pele by name.
Proceeding to the Volcano Hotel,
descending to the lake OF fire, she
threw into the seething crater live
pig and live fowl by way OF a
sacrifice to this exacting deity, ac-
companying the act with a heather
chant obligato, Now the ex'royal
lady denies the charge in toto. In
the wild religious rites Of the natives
she declares she never participated,
although she acknowledges con-
sidering many of them as "harmless
conformity to ancient customs"
comparing them to some OF our in
nocent observances, notably stand
ing under the mistletoe." Really
this is straining a point. How can
there be any reasonable resemblance
between standing under the mistle'
toe and throwing an Unwilling pig
and velustant fowl into a molten
lake7 This may be harmless pro
cedure in itself, though the victims
held other views, doubtless'--Chi

faith by their works. Yesterday the

was the part of wisdom to raise
fund by assessing plantations, &C
eording to the weight of their crop,

be used in protecting the treaty of
reciprocity in case annexation should
fail or be delayed, and an effort be
made to repeal the Hawaiian clause
in the tariff.

Food for Reflection.

When the self constituted friends
Of tbs Hawaiians tell them that they
will be treated with the highest con-
sideration by their American breth-
rem, after annexation, they must
think that the Hawaiians have no
access to American newspapers and
do not notice the constant ridi-
culs and insults heaped upon their
Queen and everything connected
with Hawaii
The Hawaiiaps know that pro-
minent Senator has declared, that
they should be treated as digger
injuus," and they are we'll aware of
the insults, that have been offered to
their countrymen, who have travelled
in the States, on account Of the
color OF their skin.
We reprint herewith an article,
which appeared few weeks ago in
the Chicago Post, and which furnish
to Hawaiian "barbarians" fair idea
of how they are to be treated after
annexation.
