LII BENiOANs HER FATE.
Hawnii's Ex-Queen Says Her People
Do Not Want Anne Ration.

Washington, June 19.-In an inter.
view ex-Queen Lilioukalani said Of the
proposed treaty between the United
States and Hawaii: Fifteen hundred
people are giving away my country.
The people of my country do not want
to be annexed to the United States
Nor do the people of the United States
want annexation. 1t is the work Of
1,50O people, mostly Americans who
have settled in Hawaii. OF this num-
Der, those who are not native-born
Americans, are OF American parentage
None Of my people want the island an.
neXed. The population of the islands
is 100000; of this number 10000 are
native Hawaiians; the rest are Amerl-
cans, Germans, Portuguese. Japanese
Chinese, English and small portion
from other countries. The 1,50O Amer
leans who are responsible for what
Was done to-day, are running the al
fairs Of the island. There is no pro-
vision made in this treaty for me. In
the Harrison treaty was allowed
$4,000 per year, but this treaty never
went into effect I have never re.
ceived one dollar from the United
States. No one looked after my inter-
ests in the preparation of this treaty
Yet my people. who form so large

A partnership is risky thing at all

But all this was forgotten in the mo-
ment. They were living over the days
OF thirty years ago and were boys again.
And though the eye OF youth had lost
its fire and the voice of command had
grown mellow with age, the heart was
young and still beat with the heroism

Some of these men had been to the
annual encampments tetore and knew
one another. To a few it was their first
reunion in Nebraska. But all were
deeply interested in the roll cal inter

That it ran t. wild schemes OF huge spec
ulation-too wild and too huge to come
to any head even on paper. These
schemes Markham looked upo1 with in
dolent contempt which cut Thomson
in a tender place. Then, too, each man
had large family OF girls who, pushed
forward by their mothers. sought to lead
the little social whirl OF the town. Con.
sequen' ly each family came to look with
JEALOUSY AMI bitt ,rness on the other, and
this feeling cropped out nowhere more
plainly or more quickly than in the
store. Within month the town knew
that things were not running smoothly
