THE REFUNDING BILL.

Little has been done recently with
reference to the refunding bill, except
to work to improve the parliamentary
situation. Opinions differ as to Speak
er Cannon s attitude. Representative
Dalzell, as already told in these letters,
favorable and also says that there
ought to be fair chance to get the
bill considered before the close of the
session. Representative Lloyd, of Mis-
souri,, who has fought the bill vigor-
ously all along, says the Speaker will
not consent to the bill coming up.
"That measure is dead,' ssaid he to-
day. cit cannot be considered. The
Speaker the other day told me he was
as much opposed to it as ever and that
it could not pass. -
At present the bill is on the union
calendar, which is the highest shelf the
Speaker could put it on. The friends
of the bill are now trying to get it on
the House calendar, where it could be
much more easily reached and where its
parliamentary status would be consid
erably improved. They have taken no
steps towards persuading the Speaker
to make this change and do not intend
to do so until after the Sundry Civil
Appropriation bill is disposed of. That
will not be for about a week

THE WARNING AT ANAA.

There are some interesting stories
told in connection with the cyclone at
Anaa, of which | will give one.
con the goth of last December, a
young native man, "a years of age,
named Tuea, belonging to the church
of the Latter Day Saints, proclaimed
to the inhabitants of the district that
great destruction would shortly come
to Anaa, and that they should take
refuge in the east. E pau ana Anaa,
ma fatata roa tie no e inc rahi roa, a
haere ana e tie hiti 'a-o-te-ra ora al.
But those who were not Mormons
others did not know what to do or to
think of it.
.'Then, in the early morning of the
9th of February, a young Mormon lad,
aged IA, named Teare, awoke from a
vivid dream, in which he saw three
white stripes extending from the sky to
spot close to his home, and as soon
as they reached the ground, there went
high up into the air sand and sea, in
terrible commotion; and he looked
down and saw only rock where the sand
had been disturbed. In great excite
ment he awoke, hearing a loud voice
cry, A horo tie hiti 'a-o-te-ra, ora
al outou, l. e., Flee to the east that
you may be saved.
H"The lad told his dream to his
father, who said, 'This is the second
warning that we have received, and
now let us go to the east. He pro-
claimed the message to all the people
of their settlement, TuuhOra, and amid
the derision of many non Mormons.
fifty Latter Day Saints, including men,
women and children, prepared them
selves and went to the eastern side of
the island, which is higher than the
rest, and there awaited the calamity,
making platforms for safety in the
trees.
LAS the day advanced, the sky dark
ened and in the afternoon there came
bowling tempest, and pelting rain,
which hurt peoples faces, as it fell,
and then arose a terrible sea! The
cyclone ragged in full force for several
hours all over the island, only lightly
touching the eastern side comparative
ly). During that time all the stone
churches, dwelling houses and planta-
tions were utterly destroyed.
EVEN the graveyards were robbed
of all they contained, so that the shore
of the lagoon is strewn with old hu-
man skulls and bones!
but all those refugees were saved
and returned unframed to Tuuhora at

DEVASTATION OF THE PAUMOTU
ISLANDS,

AT the Paumotus, many of the
islands are stripped of all cocoanut and
other trees, and have been washed bare
of sand, the only soil down there's es-
pecially Anaa, or Chain Island, where
about 120 lives were lost out of a pop
ulation of 500. Among the dead were
several traders and visitors from Ia
hiti, two of whom were Mrs. Johnston
and her youngest son, dear friends of
mine. Their bodies were found floating
in the lagoon, and were taken up with
many others for burial, from among
monsters of the deep, whales, sharks,
turtles, ETC., that had been stranded
and killed as they were washed over
the land by the waves. Many of the
dead have been lost out at sea. The
bodies recovered were placed in exca-
vations in the papa, stratum rock, and
covered over with little sand and
slabs of rock.
cit is heart-rending to see so many
people mourning their dead, or still
hoping to recover the missing ones.
"The schooner Aimee, sailed by Mr..
Narii Salmon, brother to Queen Marau,
with over a hundred men, who were
bound to the pearl fisheries, has been
given up as lost, so that many more
hearts are sad, and the relatives of the
! missing men are wearing mourning.
"The wreck of the four-masted
schooner, County of Roxburg (of 2200
tons), which lies on the reef of Taxa
| roa, has been sold, and the captain and
his son have come up to return home by
way of Australia. They will leave per

BRYAN'S ILLNESS.

Prof. w. A. Bryan, of Honolulu. is i'll
here in George Washington University
Hospital. Yesterday he had a slight
operation performed on his hip, which
will probably keep him in bed week
longer. He apparently overdid himself
in San Francisco, distributing mes
sages and doing other relief work for
the friends of Honolulu people in the
stricken city. He worked at this assid-
uously for five days and when he
reached Washington was much worn
out and lame. Inflammation of the hip
set in, which has necessitated the OPP
Grafton. He has made good progress in
securing the endorsement of scientific
men here to his project for a topo-
graphic and chronological survey of the
Hawaiian Islands on comprehensive
scale. He feels much encouraged about
that project, which he will take up
! anew as soon as he is able to get out of
| doors again ERNEST G. WALKER.

Clean Bill Of Health for Asparagus.
From the Lancet.

Asparagus is the precursor of the season
OF fresh vegetables. and there is probably
no other vegetable the flavor OF which Is 50
highly esteemed as Is that OF tender
paragus. Chemical analysis offers no ex-
PLANTATION of its pleasant favor. but assigns
to it decidedly high nutritious value As
pnragus however. furnishes one of those
interesting examples of food which,
though containing more water I'm its compo-
sition than does milk. is nevertheless a solid
substance. Thus the head OF the asparagus
contains slightly more than SO per cent OF
water which Is only / per ce:It less than
that contained in the lettuce, but per cent
more than is present In milk. The solid
In heterogeneous substances. which amount
to 30 per cent of the dried vegetable.
Among these may be reckoned q purtn
body. to which has been ascrfbed the harm
full influence of asparagus on some persons
with a equity tendency. When asparagus Is
consumed In large quantities the output of
uric acid is very distinctly increased. The
same effect Ii obtained after drinking copi-
ously OF beer, which also contains purfn
bodies. although they are entirely absent In
wines and. OF course. in spirits. Sweet
bread may be Objectionable on similar
grounds There Is no reason for thinking.
however that when asparagus Is eaten IN
reasonable quantities 1t causes an unde-
sirabie disturbance OF the bodily functions.
On the contrary, II Is very digestible and Is
easily tolerated, even by tnyalids.
