The bills of the Committee of En-
tertainment sent to the Comptroller
of the city of New York for the ex-
penses of Kalakaua's ten days visit in
that place were over $4,000. The
Comptroller refused to pay it, as they
were evidently swindles. A room for
the entertainment of reporters was re-
served in the Windsor hotel during
the Kings stay, and the most expen-
sive cigars and wines could be had for
the asking. The hotel had furnished
the articles on the order of the Com
mittee of the Common Council. But
there was no appropriation for enter
tainment, and the city was not liable
The account remained unpaid fol-
several years. In the end, the Corpo-
ration Counsel, at the request of q
friend of the Kings gave an opinion
to the Comptroller, which "straddled'
the question, and the Comptroller paid
the bill, remarking as he did so that

Where buds are bursting and flowers

Filling the air with perfume sweet

Rest and peace from the dawn to the

Swinging above me the jasmine star,
A whisper OF wings as the birds are

A silvery foam on the coral bar.
Lingering mists on the mountain

Purple shadows in grey crevasses,

Ger russell and gold of ferny plume,
Timid and shy, Oh! how sweet their

Waited to me from the purple gloom
Of copses deep where flowers are

And shaking their gold and scarlet

KALAKAUA'S TRIP
To United States Compar.
ed to Pres. Do1e's.
Expenses Run UP While Entertain
ing the Guests of the
Nation.

The New York Evening Posts Wash
ington correspondent writes to his pa
per under date of January q, giving
the details of the visit of King Kala-
kaua to the United States in 1875 as
follows:
The arrival of President Dole of
Hawaii as guest of the nation is re-
garded by the annexationists as a very
important event. AS he travels not
incognito, but as the chief magistrate
of friendly people, he receives the
same honors that are paid to royalty
This country is no stranger to the
visits of royal personages. It was, dur
ing troublous times in France, haven
of refuge for Louis Philippe and for
the future Emperor Napoleon III. 1t
has entertained the Prince of Wales,
the Grand Duke Alexis of Russia, the
Emperor of Brazil, the Infanta Eula-
lie of Spain, and other notable Cau-
casian rulers or members of ruling
houses. The crowned heads of Hawaii,
however, have favored us more freely
than those of Europe or of European
blood. Queen Emma's visit occurred
long time ago, but is still remember
ed. Kalakaua's in 1875 was attended
with a much more ostentatious dis
play of hospitality, as we were just
then trying to get something from
Hawaii and needed his good will The
visit of Queen Kapiolani about ten
years ago was made with less formal
parade, but President and Mrs. Cleve-
land showed the visitor the usual
diplomatic courtesies. Liliuokalani,
who had been here once as Princess,
did not come again as Queen, but de-
ferred her second visit still she had
been driven from the throne; and
when Kaiulani, the heir apparent
came, the monarchy had already been
overturned, so that her royalty, like
Liliuokalanfs was de jure simply, and
as such not open to official recogni-
ton here
Of all the visits made by actual OF
potential rulers Kalakaua's was the
only one to which any significance be-
yond an expression of kindly feeling
could possibly attach. In that one in
stance, as has been said already, the
underlying object was of our own seek
ing-not of the other party's. We
wanted Kalakaua here that we might
wine and dine him TO his hearts con-
tent, fiatter some of our people the
while, and thereby clinch the inter-
national negotiations which were al
ready well under way.
In view of the entertainment of Pre-
sident Dole as a guest of the nation, 1t

The cost of entertaining President
Dole will probably come out of the
contingent fund of the Department of
State, as no special appropriation APP
pears to have been made to meet it.
This means the cutting off of a good
ly slice from an already overcharged
fund.- especially when we remember
that the visit was unsought on our
side, and is for the purpose of helping
Hawaii rather than of benefiting our
selves.

his day, and he won the race easily. Major
Taylor showed up well the FIRST day, but
failed to even qualify on Thursday. Plug
ger BIZ Martin, who rode his maiden race
in this city and who was formerly attached
to the Second infantry at Fort Omaha, was
in the thick Of the fray and finished we'll
up in a number OF the races. In the big
handicap lie ran fourth from the 6O-yard
mark, and that after a bad spill in his heat
in the morning, in which he was badly cut
up and bruised. To look at him one would
naturally have thought he was Knocked out
for good, but he showed himself to be
game to the core and got an even hundred
dollars for his fourth place in the handi-
cap. Arthur GARDENERS fall put him out Of
the big handicap. He seemed to be riding
in poor luck, and was unable to pick any of
the first plums in the races, although he
won most Of his trial heats. Tommie
Cooper rode in something like his 1896 form,
but was unable TO get better than seconds.
The writer was told by some of the old
timers, who have attended all Of the ma
tional meets that this was one Of the best
ever held, although there we're not nearly
so many visitors present as was expected.
The only reason for lack OF attendance Of

young men out Of the country, who were
league members, and almost always attended

HUNTING THE WHITE SHEEP
Big Game of Alaska Bagged by a White fol
the First Tine.
HUNTERS MARROW ESCAPE FROM DEATH
Trip to Cooks Inlet and Adventures
in Search of the Rare and Wary
Animals of the Northwest
ern Mountains.

CANTON, n. Y, Aug, lO.-There is prob
ably no man in America who has hunted
over more ground or pursued more different
kinds of big game than Mr.. Silas n. Matter
ner, whose home is in this little Adirondack
town, though most Of his time is spent in
following the trails Of the northwest. Mall
terner is a huntsman Of the old school who
has followed the chase for more than
twenty-five years purely for love Of it.
He ha. just returned from a trip to Cooks
inlet, Alaska, undertaken a year ago in
search of the white sheep of that country,
which no white man had ever before sue
ceeded in bagging.
1t was during a trip through oregon that
Malterner heard of the famous Alaskan white
sheep. Coming to him through the In
dians, the stories at first appeared to have
but little foundation and nine persons out OF
ten would have passed them over as
legendary, an example of the fertile big
talk of the northern red men. Not SO
with Malterner; the prospect, vague though
1t was, of being the first white man to Sc
cure a specimen of so rare an animal APP
pealed to his love of adventure. Two
facts rewarded his inquiries among
the Indians and the few whites
who had heard something concerning the
SUBJECT. Inc lrSt was tEat the Wnlte SneeI
were to be found only in the mountain fast
nesses of Alaska, in the neighborhood OF
Cooks inlet, a region so difficult of access
that even the natives themselves seldom
hunted them. The second fact was that
although seen by a government official
(Prof. Dalls), during his trip to Cooks
inlet, not a single specimen of the animal
had been obtained for mounting, nor did
any of the existing natural histories contain
a comprehensive account of this peculiar
variety of mountain climber.
Resolved to obtain one or more Of the
sheep, or to prove their existence but an
other of the many Indian fables, MalterneI
FASTENED to Sitka preparatory to pushing
further north into the mountains of Alaska
Fortune favored him at the outset, for In
Sitka he foun Prof. l.. L. Dyche Of the
Kansas State university, who had heard OF
the white sheep, and had gone to Alasks
to obtain, If possible, a specimen for his col.
lection. Joining forces, the two proceeded
northward to Cooks inlet. The success
which attended their efforts is told by Mr.
Malterner in the blowing story, the notes
Of which he made while on the trip:
Locating the White Sheep.
On the tenth day after our departure from
Sitka, on the steamship Dora, we reached
Tyonic, 760 miles north. and situated upon

retaliated by suing him for the expense CT
fuel and light.
The simplest and perhaps the most i'm
pressive marriage ceremony Is that in use
among the Cherokee Indians. The man
and woman join hands over a running
stream, which is symbolic of the desire
that their lives should thereafter flow on in
the same channel.
A unique series of weddings took place in
the Catholic church at Adelong, Australia,
recently, when the Misses Hoffman (three)
were married to three brothers named
Quinn, Two of the brothers who were
married were twins and also two Of the
sisters. One other brother of the Quinn
family is already married to a sister of the
Hoffmans.
The Prince de Lenoir de Reina Of Cvall-
back is looking, through an agent in this
country, for a wife who will pay over TO
him 1000, 900 when the ceremony is per-
formed. The prince is only 26 years of
age and does not require that the woman be
older than As, but because of some disa-
greement as to commissions between him
and his agent, he is not having the offers
he had anticipated.
The announcement Of the engagement Of
Mrs. George Law to the maharajah of
Kapurthala recalls memories of the Worlds
fair, to which the maharajah was a dis
tinguished visitor. His highness was not
the most exalted parsonage who visited
the exposition, but he was thoroughly demo-
cratic and he achieved the proud record. ac-
cording to the Chicago Chronicle, of being
able to stow away more little neck clans
