oesEouIEs OF PRINCE DAVID.
How an American Royalty Received a
State Funeral.

The recent death of Prince David.
heir presumptive of the old line of
Hawaiian kings, and the brother of
Prince Jonah, the present delegate at
Washington, was an event of great
interest in Hawaii, says the Youths
Companion.
Never before, surely, was a state
funeral accorded by order of the
United States to a person of royal
blood resident within the national do
main.
The native Hawaiians, still deeply
attached to the ancient dynasty. found
great satisfaction in the honor; and
the state funeral of an American sub
ject became in all it's details the royal
funeral of a Hawaiian sovereign
The body of Prince David lay in
state in Honolulu. At midnight, with
no light, the coffin with all the royal
regalia was borne to the throneroom.
The approaches to the capitol were
guarded by the militia, and all day
long a continuous procession of all
nationalities poured in at one door
and out at another
The room is beautiful and it was
filed with wonderous kahiliS-the
feather trees" permitted only to roy
atty, graceful fountainlike masses of
feathers, thousands in each kahin,
and in all exquisite and vivid tints of
tropic plumage; some all scarlet,
some white, some lavender, some yell
low and some brown.
Over the bier of the dead prince lay
priceless great feather robe, soft and
glowing of yellow touched with scar
let By his side stood native Ha-
waiians, in deep black, with shoulder
capes of yellow feathers and black
and white kahilis; they were as mo-
tionless as bronze statues Beyond
them were more guards. then a line
of mourning women of royal blood
At the end of the room were flowers,
loved of Hawaiians.
