vestigation showing that Is cases OF
the plague, IA of which were fatal,
have occurred within week, The
market is located in the center of
the city. In black, rotten, wooden
buildings, the keepers of the stalls
live with their families, huddled to.
Rether in great filth. Some OF the
victims we're stricken and died with
in an hour. There have been several
deaths in other sections of the city
recently which have been traced to
infection from the market district.
After all the market people had
gathered together TO-DAY, the
health officers threw a guard around
the buildings, aud will keep the in
mates quarautined there for a fort
night. They will then burn the

about to return to her native Iand.
A victim of the grip and dissppoint.
ed at her failure to secure pension
from this Government. she takes a
gloomy view of life. For the past
month the ex-Queen has been max
ing her own shroud. Hawaiians al.
ways prepare this garment with
great care. To be buried in a robe
bought or prepared by strangers is
considered discreditable.
"The ex-Queen's shroud is of the
heaviest white satin, lined with pur-
pie silk. Gold clasps, on which her
coat of-arms is engraved, fasten the
garment at the throat. 1t is placed
in a beautiful rose casket, and at
present is being shown to all the
Queens friends who call. Liiuoka.
lani will sail from San Francisco
about the middle of May. She will
60 directly to her estates Just out
side of Honolulu. She says she will
not put foot again on the soil OF the
United States proper, where she has
been treated SO uDjustly.
Senator Hoar has promised to
place her pension on the suudry
civil bill, but the ex Queen has lost
all hope. She is 63 years old and
has a private fortune yielding her
an income of $25, 900, besides a fine
estate and country palace. Queen
Liliuokalani came to Washington a
year ago accompanied by re,iuue
of attendants, and rented furnish
ed house in an aristocratic portion
OF the city. She has maintained a
semi-court."

Conway Public School.


 The Public School opened Mon day, Oct. I, with an enrolment of 26o.
 No special program was prepar- ed for the occasion, but Rev. H. H. Street read chapter from the Bi- ble and offered an earnest prayer. Hon. J. E. Martin, Dr. G. D. Dickerson, Messrs. w. J., Wilkins and G. w. A. Wilson, members of the school board were present and many other citizens also. Prof. D. L. Paisley and his excellent corps of assistants were at their posts ready, heart and hand to be- gin the labors of another year. After several songs by the school choir, with Miss Minnie Vaughter presiding at the organ. Prof. Paisley invited the members of the school board to address the school. none of them being prepared for the occasion, Prof. Paisley an- nounced that we had a working board" and not talking board. y Prof. Paisley made good earnest heart to heart talk to patrons and pupils, asking of each hearty CO., operation ih the work just begun anfemphasizing the school motto, Do right as the principle of life, the corner stone ill the grand work of character rebuilding.
 Prospects for a successful school year were never brighter. During the vacation just ended, many much needed improvements have been made upon the school build ing and campus, showing that we have indeed working board, 7 keenly alive to the educational in- terests of the masses. Another teacher has been elected, making i'll all seven, this being one more than was ever employed here be- fore. Under the former manage ment of Prof. Paisley, the public school has made wonderful ad- vances and under his present man agement it will continue to do so, and the hearty support of every citizen of this city should be given to him and his assistants. The public school is not only ''the hope of the nation, as has been truly said, but has also proven to be the golden key, the open se- same, that has thrown wide the portals of the temple of knowledge to the crowding masses of society, and made an education possible for every child in this broad land of ours. It is the one grand, beauti- ful and paternal idea of the nine teenth century, which, with its gi- gantic strides in improvement over all other systems of education, will forever stamp it the most brilliant and beneficial century of all,. We are proud of our public school. It is the cherishing mother of the fu- ture men ond women of our coun- try.
