MAKING READY TO PAY BONDS.

WASHINGTON, D. c., March O.
The Treasury Department is making
ready for the payment of the Hawaii
an Republics bonds, and 1t is expected
that, Immediately upon the opening of
the new fiscal year, when the money
is available, there will be shipped to
the Islands the cash to pay the securi-
ties held there. The bonds held In
London, 1t is said, will be advertised
for, SO they may be taken up immedi-
ately upon the closing of the period
which is December LIST, of the present
year. 4 4
The Treasury Department has refer
red to Collector Stackable the requests
made under the bill which was passed
at the close of the session providing for
the creation of SUPPORTS or entry. The
communication goes forward on this
steamer. The department VIII not give
out the names of the places which it
is desired to make new ports, but 1t
is learned that there is one on Kauai
from the present port There may be
ports at once and send deputies to the
places which are decided upon.
The publication in the Advertiser
Kauai of mysterious British, American
schooners, has aroused the Treasury
Department., and an effort is being
made to have one of the revenue cut
tiers sent there for service until the
Congress shall provide for a new YES

Mrs. N. II. Fnnie was to have sung
the solo part in Gallia but was prevented
by sickness.
While all of the numbers were artistic
and enjoyable undoubtedly the best of
them were the Hungarian Fantasia and
the "Gallia." The Fantasia, beautiful
but unusually difficult composition, is
work that calls for the highest technical
excellence, for skillful phrasing, and
withal, to do it justice, a strength that
is beyond the average pianiste Mrs
Lilienthal overcame all these difficulties
with ease. Miss Coburn, too played most
artstically the second piano part. The
ladies were forced twice to bow their ac-
acknowledgements to the prolonged APP

The choruses of Gallia, were exception

choruses, and Miss deFour sang the solo

gramme was arranged by committee
