HAWAII COURT CIRCULAR.
LiliOukalani Makes n statement
Through Capt. Palmer.

Washington. Feb. 23.-Captain Juli-
us A. Palmer, at present acting secre-
tary to the ex-queen of Hawaii, has
furnished the following statement:
Liliuokalani did not ask for specific
appointment with the president: hav-
ing simply advised him of her arrival
and wish to call, she was officially in
Vited by Mr.. Cleveland within an hour
of the receipt of her note. Her call
upon Mrs Cleveland was voluntarily
arranged by that lady without the
least hint from any one representing
Liliuokalani No other communication
of any kind or nature has ever passed
between the Hawaiian party and the
executive office: all statements to the
contrary are absolutely false Her
neglect to visit the capitol was caused
by severe cold which detained her at
her apartments two weeks, at the close
of which executive sessions on the ar
bitration treaty excluded all visitors
She has received from several sources
intelligence, conveyed to her in her own
language, that a plot has been made
to assassinate her while here, because
she is the greatest obstacle to anneXa-
tiOn. She knows as intimate friends
the persons from whom the warnings
come, nor is she ignorant of the names
of those to whom the work was as
signed, but will not mention these. But
her removal from one hotel to another
was OCCasiOned by the prior engage
ment of the apartments at the Shore
ham for inauguration week, and from
this cause only.
While aDpreCiating the solicitude of
her friends, she has not the least fear
and twice since the warning was re-
CeiVed has driven about the city in an
open carriage, has occupied a pew in
church and a box at the theater. She
has never given to the press any an
nOuncement of the object of her visit,
her plans while here, the length of her
stay. Nor has she declared any opin
ion as to her present relation to the eX-
istinS government at Honolulu, or to
the alleged annexation commission now
on it's way to Washington
LiliuOkalani will give another public
reception on Thursday afternoon, from
3 to 3. Grand Chamberlain Palmer to-
night gave out this information. He
said his Gracious lady" will be "at
home on the day mentioned, and will
be glad to see all of Washington's peo-
pie if they desire to call The word
was given to the superintendent of the
Cairo flats this afternoon to invite .he
ladies of the various apartments in to
see the Royal lady from the Hawaii
an islands, and from present indica
tions there will be a crush. At first
the invitation was extended to Ladies
of the House" but later it was thought
best that it be made general. At the
reception given two weeks ago the peO-
pie pushed and iammed to get in the
Shoreham. and then they were not al
lowed to see the royal lady because
they We're not invited.

boxes of DR.. Williams Pink Pills and now
she is in perfect health and does all her own

DR.. Williams Pink Pills are not looked
upon as a patent medicine, but rather as n
shows that they contain, in n condensed form,
richness to the blood and restore shattered
nerves. They are an unfailing specific for
such diseases as locomotor ataxia partial pa
ralysis, st. Nitus' dance, sciatica, neuralgia,
rheumatism, nervous headache, the after effects
Of Ia grippe, palpitation o: the heart pale and
sallow compilations, and the tired feeling re-
sulting from nervous prostration, all diseases
resulting from vitiated humors in the blood,
such as scrotuia, chronic erysipelas, etc. They
are also n specific for troubles peculiar to
females, such as suppressions, irregularities
and all forms of weakness. They build up the
blood, and restore the glow of health to pale
and sallow cheeks. They are for sale by all
druggists, or may be had by mail from DR..

In the history of these formative
events, the so-called silver Republicans
have taken an important part and dis
charged a necessary function. In do
ing so they have not surrendered their
convictions on certain other great prin-
Ciples of political economy and gov
ernmcnt, but hey realize that those
PRINCIPLES are not canable of successful
application under present monetary
conditions They believe, therefore,

A MYSTERY UNEARTHED.
The Remains of a Man Found Buried on
the School Grounds.

| The Remains of a Man Found Buried or
the School Grounds.
Yesterday while excayating for the
basement of the new school house on
Academy Park grounds, George Miller
discovered the skeleton of "a man bur.
ried about 18 inches under the surface.
The bones were doubled up, appearant-
ly having been thrown into a small
hole and covered with foot and a
half of earth. The clothing and flesh
had all decayed, but the bones were
in an excellent state of preservation,
and the entire skeleton was found with
the EXCEPTION of the left leg. The
skeleton was turned over to DIR. Hol.
lister, who will have them wired to-
gether.
The grounds where the skeleton was
found were never used for burial pur-
poses, therefore it is presumed the
man who was buried there was the
victim of some tragedy that occurred
in early days when human life was not
protected as it is now. Possibly a
stranger was murdered, and the crime
was covered up by depositing the body
in a place which in the early history of
The Dalles was secluded precinct.
Certainly the remains had been buried
hastily, for had they been put away
under ordinary circumstances the body
would not have been doubled up, but
would have been laid out straight. 1t
is one of those mysteries that will
never be solved. for murderers seldom
come back and claim their victims or
parade their crime.

RAIN CAME DOWN IN TORRENTS.
Devils Canyon Visited by Destructive
Water Spout.

Devils Canyon Visited by a Destructive
Water Spout.
Monday afternoon water spout oc-
Cured in DEVILS Canyon, Sherman
county, that totally ruined the Harris
road leading to the free bridge on the
Deschutes. At about 1:30 a small
dark cloud was seen in the heavens
above the canyon, and gradually il
grew larger until as it began to settle
10 the earth it appeared to blacken the
surrounding country. When the cloud
finally broke the rain began falling in
perfect sheet and within Is minutes
the entire face of the country in the
canyon was covered with a sheet of
water from an inch to two feet in
depth. The storm struck at the head
of the canyon and increased in fury
until within about mile of the De-
schutes where it seemed to have spent
it's force.
The Harris grade, from the head of
the canyon to within mile and q
quarter of the river was washed out
almost completely, and all but one of
the bridges on the road were torn out.
The Coon brothers were coming down
the grade with two large wool teams,
and were within little over mile of
the foot of the hill when overtaken by
the storm. When the water rushed
down on them they Immediately un-
hitched their horses and got them out
on the hills, leaving their wagons to
the mersy of the water, but the wagons
were favOrably situated, so they were
not washed off the grade. The Harris
road is almost completely ruined, and
will probably never be rebuilt.
