DEATH OF MRS. H. S. ovEREND.
(Communicated.)

Overend.-In Kaauhuhu, Hamakua,
Hawaii, on April 90, 1898. Sylvia,
daughter of Charles Williams, and
wife of Harry S. Overend, aged 10
years, months and days.
Thus in a few words is contained
the history of life all too short, but
noble and full of good. Hers was a
life far more useful than the span of
years would indicate, for at time
when most people are only thinking
of the active duties of life she had
gained "a liberal education in science,
art and music, given two years SER
vice to her country in the cause of ed
ucation, had neat, new home in
which she took great pride, and de-
voted, loving husband. and seemed
just ready to live when mans greatest
mption-claimed her,
and after little more than three
months illness she rests from toll.
She was educated at st. Andrews Pri-
DRY and had wide circle of friends
through the Islands: those who knew
her the most intimately loved her the
best. Life broadens and deepens in
its every day aspect when life and
character of such singular beauty and
purity has eXerted its influence on the
lives of others. She held a high ideal
of life, believed it was real, eXemplified
its beauty in every act and thought !;
strove to retain it as long as there
was hope, and then approached death
with calm, courageous resignation
and willingness, leaving messages of
love and encouragement to those be-
hind. and peacefully fell asleep.
The interment was Sunday morning
in the family lot, by the side of her
mother and three sisters who have
gone before. Rev. Tomkins conducted
the services, uring the beautiful ser.
vice of the English church. of which
she was a life long member. "Bless.
ed are the dead who die in the Lord.

LAHAINA NOTES.
Illicit Opium Makers Discovered-SeV'
eral Chinese Fined.

Lahaina, April 30
At the beginning of the week a
Chinaman named All Yam was captur-
ed, at the coffee plantation back of
Honolua, smoking opium. He plead
ed guilty and was fined fifty dollars
and costs.
Yesterday another Chinaman named
Akean was caught in Lahaina with op-
ium in his possession. He received
the same sentence as the former man.
a day or two ago five other men of
same nationality were found gamb-
ling, in sort of tank under a house,
by the light of candle and lantern.
Three of them forfeited bail. and the
other two received the usual punish
ment.
The shoot between Hama and Lahai-
nj comes off in the morning. There is
a strong north wind blowing here,
and unless it moderates by tomorrow
it will be unfavorable weather for the
Lahaina team.
Sheriff and Mrs. Baldwin drove over
here yesterday morning from Wailu-
ku. They returned the same after
noon.
The socials that used to be held in
Lahaina are to be revived. A meet
ing for that purpose takes place this
afternoon.

The party started Friday night at 0

hall. consisting of songs and piano
selections, solos and duets, by the
| girls.
At the close of the program, while
| the party visited the cottages and
other portions of the Home, Professor

played a number of selections. having
a most enthusiastic, appreciative and
pleased audience in the girls of the
Home.

tors make it. to the monument of Fa-
ther Daimen, which is not far from
the Home, and later to his grave by
the side of the little church at Kala.

From the Home, horses were taken
and the party rode to Kalawao, where

EXTENDED PREPARATIONS

'All Spain knows of her defeat and the

his secretaries, are working day and

the Canary Island reserves and additional
forces of home infantry and cavalry are
being raised, while the artillery is being
augmented by two pieces to each bat
terry.
THE peninsula armies will total up go
600 men by July Is. The railroads are
preparing war trains on/all lines, and car
riages are in readiness at all the gar
rison stations. A high authority, how
ever, expresses the opinion that the rank

denim the war and feel they are being
driven to bioodshed for unjust causes by
scheming politicians, and he therefore
doubts the army's attitude in the event

DUN'S REVIEW OF TRADE.

NEW YORK, July S.-R. G. Dun & Co. S
weekly report of trade will say to-mor-
row:
The usual half-yearly statement of fall
ures by branches of business is peculiar
ly interesting because It shows that war
and fears of war have not caused in
crease in commercial disasters.
The fiscal year has ended with finan-
cial results shade beyond general ex-
pectations, and the new war tax begins
TO increase revenue, not seriously dis
turbing business in any line.
n 1t Is not enough to dismiss the iron in
dustry with the bold statement that 1T
Is using up more iron even at the slow
est point of the year, than ever before.
1t is getting bigger domestic contracts
for agricultural implements and car ma
terials, and also for structural work than
in any previous year, but especially for
plates, the demand for which quite over
runs the capacity of all the works, and
not mainly on government account New
ertheless the demand has not pushed
prices Of material upward, for this is the
waiting and fighting period and the pro-
ducers of pig and OF billets have some
problems to settle between themselves.
Meanwhile no fall in price appears but a
better demand for products with every
expectation that within two weeks the
producing capacity of the works will be
much more fully employed than it has
been for six months.
Failures for the week have been 20
in the United States, against 20s last
year, and Il in Canada, against 30 last
year.
