MAKES VALUABLE FIND.

HONOLULU, Oct. H. Archi-
varian Lydecker has made another
interesting find while delving in
the musty hooks and crannies of
the Capitol for old documents. He
found in the closets of the Cover
nor's office number of old books
dating from 1874 until 1889, in
which the names of those who call
ed on the sovereigns, who sat on
the throne of Hawaii during that
period, have been inscribed, in
most cases by the callers them
selves. A more interesting collec-
ton of old autographs it would be
hard to find. Mixed among the
names of prominent kaamainas
who died long ago, but whose
names are still familiar to the
generation today, one finds the
signatures of various celebrated
persons from the outer world, who
happened to pass by Honolulu
many years ago.
The first of these books was start
ed in 1874, the first entry being;
George Brown, Esq, United States
Commissioner, to pay his respects
to His Majesty on his coming to
Honolulu"
This is followed BY: "R. c. Wyl-
lie Esq, H. B. M. Pro-Consul, to
present his respects to His Majesty
and the respects of Admiral Tho
mas"
This is followed by pages and
pages of entries, among them being
numerous lists of officers of various
naval vessels who called to pay
their respects to the sovereigns
Among them the following is es-
pecially interesting.
1880. Audience to the Com
missioner of the United States to
present to the King Captain Hunt
and the officers of the U. S. S.

VIM. E. Hunt, Comdr.
Ed. G. Strut, Lieut..
Richard T. Bowen.
l. j. Gillian, P. A. Surgeon. q
James c, Mosley, Master.
VIM. Bradley, Asst. Surgeon.
This call was paid just previous
to the time when the Levant left
Honolulu on her last voyage. She
started for San Francisco and was
never heard of again, although she
is believed by many to have struck
an unknown island in portion Of
the ocean which is out OF the way
of the general run of vessels.

Emperor William OF Germany, has
made the novel proposition to Pre-
sident Roosevelt of an exchange of
college professors Of the two coun-
tries. His idea is the adoption of a
workable plain by which American
professors may be relieved from
their regular duties for q period of
six months, more or less, and spend
the time in giving a number Of lee
lures in each Of the prominent uni
versities of Germany. German pro-
fessors 70 be given similar time for
lectures in American universities.
Ambassador Tower, now on his
way home, will present the presi.
dent an outline Of the scheme. It
is the Emperor's belief that great
benefit will be derived by students
OF one country from hearing q 6is-
cussion of the literature, language,
economic and social affairs of the
other by q professor of that country.

Long WInded OratOry.

It IS no new thing for the house of
commons to suffer from long winded ora
tory. AS long ago as the sixteenth cen
tury Queen Bess soundly rated her law
makers for not working more and talk
ing less, and some years later Speaker
Long actually succumbed to success
sion of lengthy speeches. "The house
is empty, and so be our stOmachs,"
one impatient member declared. II
pray you, therefore, adjourn the de-
bate for an hour" But the speaker de-
clined to bulge from the post Of duty,
with the result that he was taken i'll
and died shortly after. Brougham once
spoke for six hours on end on law re.
form, Sheridan and Gladstone both
have records Of five hour speeches, Mr..
Biggar tied their record, and Palmer
ston once held forth for four hours and
Il half on Don Pacifico.
