HONOLULH.-Thi forenoon had

] made during that most interesting
interview still are fresh in my mind, /
hasten to transeribe them for the ,bene-

ested in knowing how the famous
woman, who was once, in fact, as she
still is, in name and in the heart of
her people, queen of these islands, is
spending the evening of her life.
The queen was born Sept. 2, 1888,
and is, therefore, 76 years of age,
lacking one month, and, notwitbstand-
ing the fact that her monarchy has
been overthrown and strangers rule
her dominions, she still proudly signs
herself tLiliuokalani of Hawaii, -
which is recognized as her legal name.
As a rule the queen does not receive
strangers, and for the very good rea-
son that most Of those who try to
meet her are actuated solely and only
by motive of idle curiosity. There are
some tourists vulgar enough to regard
her as one of the euriosities of the
islands and when refused permission

jesty's life, complain that they have
been cheated out of one Of their

good manners behind them when they
leave home, and this remark does not
