appearance. Consequently, Mr.. Helelulie
does not enjoy sinecure Miss Kia Nahao-
lelena would be locked upon as a lady-in-
waiting were it not for the late unpleasant
ness which retired the queen to private
life. AS it is, she is travelling as COM
panion. Mr.. Palmer is a resident of Bos-
ton, but has been three times to Honolulu
and has been friend of Mrs. Domins for
many years. The ex-queen has just come
from months visit to the hub, and while
there she induced Mr.. Palmer to join her
suite, with a view to looking after her
interests in the United States and in Eng
land. Incidentally, he acts as fender
against newspaper reporters.
On the hotel register at the Shorenam the
royal visitor is put down in a round, flow
ing hand as Queen Liliuokalani of Ha-
wall She was rather weared by her
Journey from Boston, which was made
without any interruption, and on her ar
rival at the hotel she retired at once to her
apartments in order to recruit. On her way
from the station she was driven around by
the Capitol and then along the avenue, and
during the ride she took frequent occasion
to express her admiration of the beauties
or OF the city OF her great and good friend"
Ihe party did not stop a the White House
but went Immediately to the hotel.
When a Star reporter called at the
ShCreham he was informed that the ex-
queen was seeking little needed rest and
begged to be excused from seeing anv
visitors. 1t was different with Mr.. Palm
er.
The queen" said Mr.. Palmer, is travel
ing in her capacity as private lady, and
have no doubt that she will follow the
same rule here that she did in Boston in
declining any official attentions. AS YOU
know, she was In Boston for a month and
lived the life Of lady of leisure and
mears. She went to Boston to visit the
relatives OF her late husband and at their
earnest invitation. She enjoyed her visit
very much. During her stay she persist
entiy refused to give her views on any
political subject. This was particularly
the case when the news was received of
the death of Minister Willis at Honolulu
think that every reporter In Boston
sought an interview with the queen hut
she absolutely refused to say word on
the subject
How long does she expect to stay in
Washington"
Il have not the slightest idea There was
no limit set for her stay in Boston but
the time passed pleasantly and so
quickly that a month had elapsed before
| immeLs ely, and is visiting Washington

Will she be given an audience with the
President while she Is here?"
"As to that l really cannot say. She has
not said word on the subject, and l do
audience"
rs she on her way back to Honolulu"
4 cannot say anything on that point
either. If she has any plans at all for the
future she has not taken me into her con-
fidence. l do not know how long she will

CECIL RHODES, RETURN.
He Explains His Celebrated Sneer at
"Unctuous Rectitule."


'UnctuOus Rectitusle."
NEW YORK, January. 23.-The Evening
Post London copyright cable today says:
Cecil Rhodes reached London this after
noon in a snow storm. At Plymouth.
where the steamer touches, a crowd of re-
porters resorted to all manners of devices
for engaging him in special launches, but
failed even in seeing Mr.. Rhodes, who. I'm
marked contrast with his Cape Town taIka-
tiveness. shut himself up in his cabin.
No small chagrin is expressed that now
that Mr.. Rhodes Is here no committee is
ready. Mr.. Chamberlain. himself i'm
presses every one with his anxiety to SCI
the committee to work, but Mr. j. NJ Mac
lean. the leader Of the little band of tory
Jingoes. has an amendment which DELAYS

even force the government to drop the In
Quiry, and the strange thing. Is that Sir
John Lubbock supports them, believing
that peace between the English and tbs.

One Of Mr.. Rhodes friends on che stea me,

providing for jury trial.
No objection was offered to this.
With this the hearing closed. The bill

later date.
Opposed the Tagging Idea.
Some of the dairymen from the surround
ing country were present and opposed the
tag proposition. They said the dairymen
were glad to have reasonable inspection,
but that the pending proposition would
work hardship on the dairymen. They
could not do business under it.
What provision is in the law now fo-
the disposal of condemned cattle?" asked
Mr.. Miner
None replied Mr. Thompson. That's
what we want to get at. We want the bu-
reau of animal industry to pay one-half
the cost of the COW and kill it,
One objection which was urged against
the tag system was the claim that a COW
might become impure within a day after
being tagged, and yet, when the inspector
came around again, he would pass that
cow because 1t was tagged.
DIR. woodward controverted this state
ment. and said the tag would simply enable
the inspector to know something of the
history of the COW.
DR.. Woodward gave the committee on
account Of the present methods of analyz-
ing milk and discovering impurities in milk.
Samples.
Nh. Thompson said the dealers want a
fair sample Of milk to be taken from the
can, and the dairyman should be present.
DIR. Woodward said the sample should be
taken from the milk that is sold to the
consumer, and not the milk that comes
from the COW.
Section I was then discussed. 1t pro-
Vfdes that no person shall sell, exchange
or deliver, or have in his possession with
intent to sell, exchange or deliver, any
cream containing less than eighteen per
centum butter fat.
A Plea for a Low Standard.
The dairymen held that there should be
no misdemeanor for selling cream less than
the is per cent standard. He thought that
16 per cent would be high enough. 1t
would require a separator to raise Is per
cent.
DIR. Woodward said the Agricultural De-
partment requires standard of 20 per
cent.
Mr.. Thompson said 1t was impossible at
tines, on account of climatic conditions, 10
raise cream Of Is per cent The cream
would not be impure because of lower
stardard of butter fat contained.
