It's May and June the year around
in Hawaii. 11awaiians who have
stayed at home have never seen
lightning or heard thunder. II rains
frequently. The rain is called "liq-
uid sunshine" In Honolulu If it is
raining hard on one side of the street
one merely crosses over to the OPP
posite side of the street and is out
of the wet. The only thing that pre-
vents Honolulu from being an Eden
Is mosquitoes-and Japs.

The loyeliest group Of islands that
adorns any sea was discovered by
Captain Cook, commanding a British
fleet, in IT'S. just l37 years ago.
Those best informed on the subject
are of the opinion that the group
was discovered by a Spanish nav.-
agtor as early as l.l-50. The simple
people of the islands received Cap
taing Cook as a God. lfie was the
recipient of many costly treasures
and gifts the generous, simple, saw
age people had given him. The story
runs that Cooks sailors were like
other sailors-wild, careless and un-
ruly. They were accused of being
guilty of Decorating some of the
native church property. The natives
grew tired of this and began to tire
OF the visits and the liberties of the
visiting friends in Captain Cooks
party.
The natives were tolerating these
outrages. However, one day the sail
ors, themselves, became involved,
fought each other and finally killed
one Of their own party. This taught
the simple but philosophical natives
that they were not God nor Of God
and they fell upon Cook and killed
him. Separating the flesh from the
bones, the homes were carried to the
temple and draped in red, emblemat-
ic Of the disfavor in which Cook was
held Later monument was erect
ed on the srot where Cook fell
These islands were ruled over for
many years as kingdom, first pre-
sided over by King Kanamameha and
later by the same line Of Kings up to
King Kamehameha V. King Kalihaua
and Queen Liloukalani, or Queen ILL,
as she is commonly called were the
last two monarchs to rule the king
dom. The period of the kingdom
was almost a century or from 1795 to
1898. The queen was dethroned and
a miniature republic set up in its
stead. 1t remained a republic for
about seven years, or until 1900,
when congress authorized its organ
izat!on as territory Annexation
too rlace on July Z, 1898.

QUAIL ON TOAST At $40 PER.
(Hopkinton Leader.)

L. c. Preussner, deputy game ward
en-. was in town Tuesday and hauled
Dick Andersen, employed at the
Schuster barber shop, into court for
violation Of the game laws. A few
days ago Anderson was hunting down
the river and shot a ring-necked
pheasant, an importation that is pro-
tected under the law until 1917. Dick
claimed that he broke the regula-
tions unwittingly, which is no doubt
the case, otherwise he would not
have brought the bird hcme openly.
Judge Dalrymple and the warden took
that view OF it and assessed only $40
and the costs. 1t appears there is
covy of them near town, but only
few were aware of their location
Rfng-necks and Hungarian pheasants
have been planted in some = sections
of the county, notably in the game
preserve in Coffins Grove township.
and doubtless some of them have
strayed this way. If they are unmo-
Tested it is likely they will propagate
and furnish good sport for the MIN
rods after a few years.

CHOICE APPLES.

B. C. Hall, the baker, has been
having on display in his show win
dows two baskets of apples grown
on the fruit ranch owned by his
brother and himself, in the state Of
Washington The apples are as
near perfect as we believe apples
can be grown. The ground on
which they are raised is all irrigat-
ed, and the owners have found a
profitable market for the lucious fruit
in countries as far removed as Aus
tralia, and France. The market this
year was seriously inteFferred with
because Of the decentralization of all
because CT the European
war. The apples not only look per-
feet, but We have certainly never
tasted anything in the apple line that
surpassss them,

During the 16 years, which preced'

THE NEW ARMORY.

J Some idea can now be formed as
to the general appearance OF the
handsome new armory building which
Joseph Hutchinson is erecting on
East Main street, near the court
house. Notwithstanding the dis
agreeable weather during much of
the time G. K. Readings force of
brick layers have about completed
the brick work, and the carpenters
have also nearly the roof Of the
building completed. Most Of the
windows have been hung, and the
building is practically enclosed, en-
abling the workmen to continue with
the interior work regardless of the
weather conditions. When the old
frame building is removed and the
refuse and extra building material
cleared away, the new structure will
then be seen as it really is. A
