GOING BACK TO COLOMBIA.
An Old Insurgents Journey tn Claim
an Estate.

San Francisco, May 24.-Among the pas
sengers on the steamer Australia which
arrived from Honolulu was A. A. Montana,
the proprietor of large dairy farm in
Manoa Valley, who is Cn his way to his
old home in Colombia to recover his share
OF the estate left by his father.
Montana says that thi-fy-fve sears ago
when he was boy of thirteen years a re-
bellion was started ia Colombia and he
lei the insurgents against a fortress that
commanded the capitol. He led them Up a
seuet path by night and then himself
crawled through small hole in the wall,
followed by the men, one at a time. AT 1
o'clock in the morning the revolutionists
rushed on the crowd in the market place
and put to death all the men they could
find. Then they left town. Next day they
captured neighboring city, young Monta-
no again leading them.
The government, however, rallied its
forces and defeated the rebels. The ring
leaders were shot. but out of consideration
for Montano's youth he was taken to the
coast and banished. He went to Hawaii
where he has lived ever since. In Colom-
tia he left nine brothers and two sisters.
His fathers estate. which was large was
not confscated. SO he returns now TO get
his share. He carries letters from Presi-

for that. AS for any connection between
this season and the summer of the Eass

gentle old age of a Queen. The cynical

Indian summer-or the West Indian, for
| the matter OF that-the snakes come out
and disport themselves. and the streams
dry up. and the people think it is cool
