ED. The INDEPENDENT:-
| have been invited to become a
good American and | have accepted
the invitation. To show my earnest
ideas asked my wife and the chill
dren to 60 with me and enjoy the
celebration OF the Fourth OF July,
which | believe is your great Am.
erican holiday. My wife said that
she wanted to listen to the literary
exercises, and assured her that
although Estee and Baird weren't
here she could be sure OF McCants
Stewart and the mustard-plaster
mani mean Geo: w. Smith.
My oldest girl said she was an
American aud wanted to take in the
yacht races, and her younger sister
wanted to go to the ball-which is
not to take place. My little boy,
however, wanted the fireworks, and
he told me that he will never be an
American il the Eagle cannot
screech on Fourth of July, and
rockets and Roman mansions--I
mean candles-tell the world. that
We Americans are whooping it up.
Why, Mr.. INDEPENDENT, can we not
have fireworks tomorrow to show
to the Hawaiians the proper way OF
celebrating the great, glorious dayi
II Mr.. Kennedy, fellow from Scot
land had fireworks in his drawers,
you can bet your sweet life his old
rockets would have been purchased
and the show would go on to NOR
row evening. According to an even
ing paper there are no fireworks in
the city, and yet l, newly-made
American, found splendid stock OF
fireworks at the store of Sam Led
erer. 1t is true that there are no
"set" pieces because those had to be
ordered in advance, but there was
surely enough material to make the
old and young children happy, and
make them realize that every rocket

every SNAKE, or snail, or serpent"
sent up was tribute to the birth
day of Uncle Sans conntry.

we're entertained for many years
that in spite OF Lord Palmerston's
statement in the house OF Commons,
some fifty years ago, that geographi-
cally and politically, Hawaii belong
ed to "the sphere Of influence" Of
the United States, Great Britain
would be the protector OF the islands
it is possible that Hawaiians to the

flag would float over them. The

At the orpheum.

We felt sorry last evening when it
was whispered to us that the Or
pheum may be closed for good.
"El Captain" as rendered last even
ing by the Southwell Company was
simply brilliant, and the audience
which filed every seat in the House,
applauded the talented actors and
actresses, who were in the best of
humor and who became ignited with
the jolly good nature OF the ap-
plauding audience.
The music is fascinating from
start tc end; the "Capitan" is a
brilliant actor and singer; the "legs"
we'll, never mind (wives were
there) and the ensemble was a sue
cess. The waving of American flags
was unnecessary and probably not
in good form. The Stars aud Stripes
have nothing to do with "El Capi.
TAM" and were very muchly out Of
order.
We hope the Orpheum will 90 on
and furnish pleasant and whole,
some fun forlthe loungers who are in
need OF recreation once in a while.
