No Right to Take Crown Lands.
San Francisco, Nov. %. EHQueen
Lilioukalani of Hawaii has arrived
here from Honolulu, accompanied by
Col. G. w. MacFarlane and Hon. Paul
Neuman. The ex-queen excused her.
self from newspaper men, but it was
learned that she will leave for Wash.

her visit is to try to influence congress
to allow her to retain possession of the
crown lands, valued at $5,O0O,0OO She
maintains that despite Of annexation
of the Hawaiian islands to the United
States the crown lands are her abso-
lutte private property and that this
country has 10 more right to assume
ownership eff the lands than it has to
take the property Of any private citi-
zen. The contention Of Pres.d dent
Dole, the cabinet and the Hawaiian
commission that the crown lands be-
CAME part of the United States prop
erty upon annexation of the islands she
takes exception to, and is hopeful that
her trip to Washington will result
finally in the crown lands again be-
coming her private possessions.

Omaha, Nov. 23.-Complete returns
(officiaD from every town in the state
show considerable variation from the
unofficial vote as collected at the time.
BY the official vote Poynter's plurality
is found to be 1922. The total vote
cast for governor was 1S9, 1884, against
191, 1887 for supreme Judge last year.
Hayward received 1922 more votes

The falling off in the total vote is not
so great as has generally been sup

look elsewhere to account for the
dwindling of their plurality.

II am always good in Sunday

crossing the space between the benches
she said to Annie:
Please may I sit here?''
you may if you want to-" replied
Annie, rather Grossly.
All the scholars looked at each other
and smiled. Her sister blushed.
She is SO SMALL she said to her
neighbor.
Then the teacher entered, and Annie
and Ruth were forgotten.
When the scholars stood up to sing,
Ruth offered one side of her hymn
book to Annie, who took hold of the
and sang from it.
Glow nice you sing" whispered
Ruth. II wish I could sing so.''
Annie smiled. RS
"You are too little yet," she said,
and moved closer. Then when the
singing was over she added: you are
the incest girl in the school.
But Ruth did not answer, for Just
then a gentleman began to speak, and
she knew that she must pay attention.
So she listened and he told them the
stories of Thanksgiving day and ended
by saying: mo one is too poor or too
small to be of use.'
"He don't know everybody" whis-
beTed Annie. lie don't know us. !"
Then she added suddenly: Say, what
is Thanksgiving for, anyhow"
Mamma said that long ago, when
the people frst CAME to America to
live, they were so glad when the grain
ard pumpkins and potatoes were put
away safe in the barn for the winter
that they appointed one day to go to
church and give thanks
"Oh,' said Annie, but suppose they
had no barn and no pumpkins and
things. Then what ?'
eve have no barn." replied Ruth,
"but mamma buys the pumpkin and
turkey at the store.''
"My mother never does,'' said An
ME.
"Why?" asked Ruth.
Because she can't" answered An
ME.
Don't you have any Thanksgiving
dinner then?" asked Ruth.
Annie shook her head
"No," she said, I'VE don't often have
bread enough, so you see l could not
do anything for any one if wanted to
ever so much.''
"And I am afraid I'm too little"
said Ruth, thoughtfuIly.
Just then the collection plate was
passed before them. Ruth had two
f1ve-cent pieces in her hand. but when
she saw that her new friend had moth
ing to give she laid one Of the coins on
her lap.
Annie turned red, but she gave Ruth
shy smile and placed the money on
the plate.
