WILL ENTERTAIN Ex.QUEEN
Hawaii's Former Ruler May Stop in
Salt Lake.

Lilioukalani. the former queen Of
Hawaii. is expected to pass through
Salt Lake within q week on her way
to Washington, but whether she will
stop in this city or not or when she
will leave San Francisco on her way
to the east has not yet been settled
The natives of the Hawaiian Islands
now in this city are very anxious to
entertain their former queen. At a
meeting held on Sunday by a number
of these people It was decided to ask
permission from the church author
tiles to sing a number Of Hawaiian
songs at the tabernacle service next
Sunday afternoon, should the distin-
guished visitor be in the city at that
time. She Will be fttingly entertained
if she decides to make a stop here.
As has been stated in the dispatches.
LiliOukalani is in this country at this
time to try to recover some Of the
property that she claims was hers at
the time she was dethroned some
years ago. She holds that the value
of this property was s15,O00.000. She
has refused a pension OF s25, 600 from
the present government Of. the islands
on the grounds that it would be char
ity, when all she asks is justice.

route home from Cape Nome to spend
the winter Mr.. Randen has been up
in the Arctic land for several years

ing success in Alaska
1T is only possible for a man with
money to do well up there" he said
last evening. THE first year in the
north is consumed in learning how to
live there, the next in learning the
country and in the third one may get
hold Of claims that are worth having
Then comes a year or two of strug-
Cling and the compensation for the
effort. Alaska is a country Of dissipa-
ton and mlsmanagement. People
there seem TO lose all their good sense
and indulge in dissipation that is ex-
pensive physically af5 well as financial

judgment and lose good time chasing
impossible propositions The country
is developing rapidly and viii be a
better field in years to come than it

A Boston exchange has the following
interesting account of railroad devel-

"A gentleman who has just returned
from a short trip west, and who has
been accustomed to make annual trips
in this direction since 1880, says:
Go I made the trip from Boston TO
the Pacific coast in just four days and
four hours, standard time, whereas
only a few years ago the same route
would have consumed nearly seven
days. If the Southern Pacific put its
system between Ogden and San Fran
cisco in as good order as the Union
Pacific now is (and they claim they
are going TO do il at once, within three
years the trip will be made from BOs-
ton to San Francisco in from three to
three and One-half days with ease. The
Union Pacific has improved its main
line most remarkably by reducing
grades and curves. The service gen
orally, west of Chicago, strikes one as
much superior to that east of Chicago.
