and American branches to affiliate
His Lordship of Honolulu has now sew
cred all connection with the ArchbiSh-
op of Canterbury-or vice versa-and
he does not recognize the authority in
these Islands of the House of Bishops
in the United States. Hence, he has
no ecclesiastical superior, and evidently
wants none. He is the visible head of
his own church, a church knowing no
allegiance to any other EpiScopate;
and he is prepared to hurl anathema
maranatha at any gowned or hooded
interloper who questions his right TO
rule.
In other words, My Lord is setting up
a little Papacy. The first we know we
shall hear of Pope Alfred I and Car

the spectacle. for amusements are TOO
few and far between in these Islands

laurels on the three great battle fields
of the Crimean war, and then came to

himself as a union soldier. 1t was men
of his calibre that made possible Fort

an AppomatOX. Yet this little man, for
he was Just tall enough 20 get into the

toned to speaking Of himself that when
he does so he hangs his head TO con-
ceal his bushes and fidgets about like
school girl He never says what he
did IL Is always what the boys did,
and il is plain to be seen that he has
never learned to regard himself In the
light of a hero, or indeed as an extraor-
binary man at all. But when a few ques-
lions call up the battlefelds Of the past
his form becomes erect and the old
martial spirit dances in his eyes. This

For fourteen years 1t was his HES

he was never sick q day while IN the

The spectacle that followed was a sight

Sewing machines are not unfrequent-

the little hand machine predominating,

The washing is always done down TO

often one sees from a dozen to hun
dred women sitting in the edge OF the
water with large fiat rock In front
Of them, washing clothes. The clothes
