and the most skeptical must be con-
WINGED. It's pretty hard for our read

stranger living in some far-away point

neighbors. friends and citizens is the
best proof: no better evidence can be
had.

Partial Eclipse OF Moon.

Chicago, June 13.-The eclipse of the.
moon last night was hardly visible to
the naked eye. and 1t was SO slight that
but few gave it any notice. Only a
small fraction of the moons diameter
was obscured. At the most astron-
omers.say only ne-thousandth part of
the moons disk passed thru the earth's
shadow. This eclipse lasted but seven
and one-half minutes. It began at
9:241a and ended at 9:32 o'clock. Under

HAWAII SENDS DELEGATES.

sending a delegation 10 the republican

the alternates who came on the China
yesterday are#in duuDt as. 10 III Il si:e p

Hawaii was not included in the call for

ing of the national convection 40 that
there may be no technical objections
to HE SEATING of the delegates, But the
Hawaiians hope that the national COM
mittee and the convention will overlook
these Irregularities.
It was impossible to hold the Hawaii
an conventions at an earlier date The
act providing a government for the is
lands was approved April 80. The news
reached the islands ten days later and
the republican central committee, which
had just completed an orgaization or
sdered primaries and convictions In each
Of the six districts of the islands, fol-
lowing the old monarchcal division.
These SIX district convictions elected del
egates to the territorial convention held
at Honolulu May 81. some eighty dele
gates being present. About forty of
these were native Hawaiians
This convention passed resolutions
favoring a canal across the isthmus of
Panama and cable connection between
Hawaii and the United States A separ-
ate resolution pledged republicans to
work for the admission into statehood.
Four delegates and four alternates to
the national convention were selected
by ballot. thos receiving the greater
number Of votes being put first on the
list.
The convention made the mistake of
assuming that a territory would be en-
titled to four delegates instead Of two.
The selection proved that republicans
are making a streuous effort TO concil-
late and enlist the native vote, partic-
uiarlS the influential friends of the ex-
queen.
So far no great number of Hawaiians
have declared themselves either republic
cans or democrats. tho the natives con-
trolled the republican convention and
seemed likely to control the democratic,
which was called for June II. There is
