their pa at Totara, but to-day the trenches and earthworks still remain as evidences of the terrible tragedy that was once enacted there, while down on the flat fronting the hill are also to be seen the remains of the haangis (stone ovens) where the help less victims of the Ngapuhi natives were roasted before being eaten by the latter. The pa, however, is now utilized as burying ground by the Thames natives.
 Hongi, it may be mentioned, was accidentally shot in the back few years after the Totara incident by one of his own men while engaged in a fight with another tribe. The bullet struck him in the back and passed through one of his lungs, but he did not die from the injury thus inflicted upon him until 15 months later. have seen it stated in print that Hongl used to entertain some of his friends by allowing the wind to whistle through the bullet wound, which he managed by taking long breath and allowing the air to pass out through the wound, but whether such state ment is true or not cannot say.

Totara pa. Hongi, however. did no

Totara pa. Hongi, however. did not enter. The Nyatimaru agreed. to make peace, and in token thereof Puhi, the head chief, gave to the Nyapuhis beautiful and highly prized greensboro mere called Te-nira, (lightning) which the latter had requested as pledge of sincerity. After partaking of the Ny atimaru's hospitalities, and accepting numerous presents of greenstones and mats, the Nyapuhi chiefs withdrew. One of the chiefs, however, who pos sessed a little more honor and con- science than the others, fingered be- hind, and, stopping down, pressed his nose against that of Ahurei, chief of the Nyatimaru next in importance to Puhl, and hurriedly whispered the friendly warning "Kia tupats"! (be cautious, or be on your guard.)
 Then the northern warriors en- parked in their canoes, and, following the coast, they were soon lost to view | behind Taram Point, about three miles l distant from Totara. Here they drew their canoes up on the beach, and leav- ing number of their men in charge, the remainder returned on foot under cover of darkness to Totara. That night man of the Nyatimaru tribe heard noise outside the pa, and on going out to ascertain the cause he ob- served that the Nyapuhis had returned and taken up a-position near the rear of the pa. The Nyapuhis saw this man and shot him at once. The report of the guns aroused the other inmates of the pa, and being ignorant of the sound of firearms, many rushed out to see what was the matter. Then came the thunder of Hongi's guns, and many of the Nyatimarus fell dead at the first volley, whilst the others rushed back into the pa followed by the enemy. The first of the Nyapuhis to enter was Tete, son-in-law to Hongi, but he fell with his skull eleven from blow of a stone axe, dealt by Ahurei, he who had received the friendly warning from Te Morenga. He and his brother Pu were the only men of the Nyapuhis who l "01C hIACu III oII0 ASAo' CoOu uuc IVY atimaru people were fleeing in all di- rections from the murderous fire of the Nyapuhis' guns. Reports vary as to the number slain, but the Nyapuhis claim that thousand were killed and that great number of prisoners were taken. On the other hand, the Nya. timaru people say that only about 200 of their kin were slain.
 According to an ancient custom of the Maoris, should tribes be engaged in war with each other, the chief of the victors might call on any of the defeated party by name, and if they at once responded they were regarded as visitors or guests by the victors, and

Grand Canyon,
 February 10, 1904.

We left Adamana at 6.3O this morn ing, rather to our regret, for we had a delightful time. After an hour or two of riding the road began to be steep up grade, and we climbed steadily till about noon. Our way lay almost en- tirely through pine forests, the first real trees of any size that we have seen anywhere on the road. I see, though, that there are woodmen's shanties scattered everywhere through the woods, so it would seem to be only a matter of time before they are all gone. We reached Williams at about 12.3O and had our dinner at ''Delmonico's. Now this would sound tony if didn't say anything more, but for your farth- CT enlightenment I may as well add that this, in common with the only other restaurant at Williams, is kept by Chinese. They serve mighty sub stantial dinner, but the style was not anything to talk about. One ham sandwich proved an ample luncheon, the bread being cut in slices nearly an inch thick, and the ham between at least a quarter of an inch. It was very satisfying to the stomach, but not at all tempting to the eye. We left
 Williams about o'clock and arrived here at 5. There is no use in trying to describe it. No one can do that. It is more wonderful than all that the
 books have said of it. NJ one can
 imagine what it is like without seeing it, and one who sees it has absolutely
 nothing to say. Niagara is a bubble beside it. The nearest idea 1 can give you of it is to ask you to imagine a plaster cast made over huge noun tain range. Take off the cast, invert it, and then look down into the cast. Of course the tops of the highest clifts
 would correspond with the lowest
 point. From the point upon which
 the hotel stands the river runs more than mile below us. There is a trail to the bottom, winding slowly down. ward along the very edge of dizzy cliffs, from which one can look down several thousand feet without a break. They call it seven miles to the river, and we had planned to take the trip tO-mOr-
 row morning, but now I am doubtful.
 MT Spencer hardly feels able to spend eight or nine hours in the saddle, and
 I certainly do not care enough about
 it to urge him at all. In any case we
 shall spend tomorrow here, and start
 on westward Friday morning.
 February II, 1904.
 We have spent the day in riding and driving about the top of the Canyon and taking views of it from various points. 1t is betv cen five and six
 thousand feet from the top to the river, (seven thousand and something above sea leveD. The first thousand feet at the top is sort of whitlsh or yellowish lime stone, volcanic in origin, so 'tis said, most of the rocks looking as though they had been melted and
 then cooled, with the small holes run ming all through them that you see in any melted stone or ore that hardens. Below this is a strata of sandstone. red

swamp and kahikatea frost of an al-

swamp and kahikatea frost of an al- most impossible nature. At the back of the pa lay the Kanaerauga stream, with it's banks rising rather abruptly, and overhung with large pohutukawa trees, which at Christmas time are a mass of crimson bloom.
 Eagerly the men on the lookout peered day after day across the waters of the Hauraki Gulf for the expected fleet of 'Nyapuhi canoes. Day and night the women and slaves worked, carrying fuel and water and stores of provisions to withstand siege, while the men continued to strengthen the Notifications so as to leave no part un- protected.
 At length the day came. It was beautiful summer morning in the month of December, 1921. The calm, clear waters of the gulf rippled over the white, shelly beach, which in those days stretched in front of Totara. but which is now a dismal expanse of man. grove-covered mud. The air was filled with the warbling of the tuis and birds, concealed among the branches of the kowhai or labumum trees that fringed the shore, and many of the na- tives were at work digging potatoes and kumeras for the morning meal. Suddenly, however, the dismal bellows by tetere, or war trumpet, announc ed the appearance of the expected foe. Those on the lookout could see in the distance the great fleet of war canoes, each canoe being manned by 50 or 60 warriors, the latter striking the water with their short paddles as one man, and urged on by one who, standing erect in the leading canoe, gave them the time with wild gesticulations and hoarse cries. On came that fleet with it's eight hundred warriors, nearer and nearer, till the defenders of the pa could see the hideous figure heads of their enemy $ canoes, with the staring eyes and protruding tongues, and the beautifully carved stern posts from which floated the white feathers of the albatross. At a glance Hongi took in the situation. He saw that the small arms (guns) would be of no avail against that strong palisading; that nothing less than cannon could break it down, whilst to attempt to scale it would be madness. The Nyatimarus, concealed in the trenches with their long manuka spears, would impale them as soon as they reached the top. For days, therefore, the Nyapulis con- | tented themselves with securing the country and sending out marauding parties to murder every native they met. Then the Nyapuhis offered to make peace, and 50 or 60 of their chiefs, including Te Vera, Te Morenga, Te Wharaumn, Ururva, Titore, Rena and

and brick color, varying from very dark to very light, according to the place and the way the light strikes it. Below this is strata of dull brown, or rather yellow brown, sandstone, and the last thousand feet before you reach the river is of solid granite, almost black, with white veining. There are places where the canyon is of marble, but none appears near the Bright Angel Trail" Those who go down the trail come back saying that they are glad that they went, but would not care to undertake it again. It is seven miles from the top to the river, and when one goes down 5000 feet in seven miles it is some steep. In many places as one sees the trail from points above it goes like w along the side of the cliffs, and it hardly seems as if any thing without wings could make the descent. In many ways am very sorry not to have taken the trip down the trail. Still had delightful time. The trees here are mostly pines, but there are a number of dwarf cedars. The tree itself is not large but the berries are as large as large peas, though of the same peculiar bluish tinge like our cedar berries are at home. There seems to be no other vegetation except sage brush, yucca, cactus, and occasionally spear of feathery grass, and peculiar thorny plant the name of which l cannot find out. l don t like the cooking as we'll as did back at Adamana, though there is plenty of style. For instance, for dinner to- night we had oxtail soup, oysters and celery salad, turkey, liver stewed with mushrooms, rice croquettes, salsify potato pudding, fruit, crackers, cheese and coffee. I omitted one course which was fish, also olives and cake The walters are mixture. The head waiter is a negro, black as the ace o1 spades. Our waiter is half Chinaman half negro. Another one is hall white, while third mingles Indian and negro. A Chinaman and a negrt are in the kitchen, and all the work like bed; making and such, is done bl Indian boys. The horses are strong tough animals, and the burros like ) wise. The burros here all look a! though they had their ears sewed or tight, while those at Santa Fe acted as though their ears were put on pivot and swing around loose ever! time they moved their heads. One o1 the guides told me that it was only g difference in age, and that a burro's ears never hung loosely unless he was very old.

named respectively Wetea and luke hu. They had surrendered on being called by name, and were led by Hongi among his host of armed warriors. At his command they were bound, and others of the party were instructed to scoop out hollow in the ground near by, and to kindle fire in it. Then stones were placed on the fire to form ] Maori haangi, CT oven. The treach- 3 ry of Hongi was now apparent, and the young men saw they had been foul ly entrapped-that they were to be killed, roasted, and eaten by their con- querors. While the Nyapuhi leader (Hongi) stood with poised spear ready to slay the bound and defenceless | youths, the elder brother, Wetea, re- q uested that they should not be killed | at once, and said: "Spare us little | while, that we may utter our words of farewell and love to our people, our home, and the world" Hongi there fore paused and looked at his two cap tives while they bade farewell to their home and people, and while Wetea composed and chanted the following song:
 O beautiful calm,
 Placid and fair,
 Out on the sea!
 No dewdrops or rain
 Beclouded the sky,
 When Han-hao-tu-puni Went on his long voyage.
 Bewildered I was Not to follow him then And sing a love song, As thou, Ahu-rei, Padded him far away, Past rock-jutting point, At the distant Ko-hi. then might have seen | Whaka-ari pretell | My future, my doom, And beguile me in thought. 1 As storm follows calm,

 My eyes are dim
 With mist of tears. I cannot see
 The mountain peak
 Of great MOehai;
 But take, take me
 Far away, and place me
 Where the ocean surge
 Can never move me
 From the ke]p that
 Binds the seaweed to it's rocks When this song was completed Wetea chanted the following song also Hongi standing in the meantime witf his spear poised which he wasiwaitine to use on the two young men:
 O how love,
 With a whirling power,
 Makes blank my mind!
 But could I know
 That thou hast gone
 Back home from other
 Bank of lonely river,
 And I am doomed to feel
 The pain and anguish
 Of Mata-or instrument.

 Have felt no dread

 But, oh! how sad
 I feel, to hear
 Discordant sounds from thee! As apprehensive here sit,
 While tears bedim my eyes, : moan for house and tribe an f home. g While Wetea was singing his fare
