OLD GLORY IN HAWAII.
The American Flag Flies from the
Home of eX-Queen LiliuOkalani.

IL is interesting TO record that, be-
cause Of one Of the tragedies of the
present war. the aged ex-Queen Liliuo.
kalani Of Hawaii has permitted for the
first time an American flag to fly over
her home The news of this incident
comes to us in a letter from correspon.
dent in Hawaii The correspondent
writes.
1T was my privilege a few days ago
TO attend what will possibly be the last
public reception she VIII ever give to
members Of the Hawaiian senate-some
Of her own race and some son Of the
missionaries who were mainly respon.
sible for her overthrow. Although they
belonging to a body absolutely demo
cratic in form and elected by vote Of the
people as citizens Of the United States,
it was most interesting and somewhat
touching to note the loyalty and love
shown to the aged eX-queen; almost. one
could imagine, as if she We're still their
reigning sovereign.
IAN incident of unusual interest took
place just prior TO the reception. Colonel
Iaukea had told Liliuokalani of the
sinking Of the Aztec, resulting in the
death Of five Hawaiian sailors. and
asked her if on that account she would
like to raise the American flag over her
home She replied most emphatically.
Yes, have you a flag When he said
No an army officer who happened to
be present offered to procure one. on
its arrival the queen went into the yard
to watch the ceremony Of raising the
Star sand Stripes for the first time
over Washington place.
Washington place, the residence Of
Queen Liliuokalani, is the home once
owned by the queens American hus.

The University of Washington trac-
es its recent football defeats to a
German who is known as Emperor
William. Before the United States
became involved in the present war
The University of Washington was
always able to assemble football
squad capable of cleaning up every
other team on the Pacafic Coast, but
when war was declared University
of Washington students jumped into
the breach with the result that all
Of its football talent went to the
IRON. AS result the University
coach had to make use of such mater
ial as was left. That. very little was
left is evidenced by the recent de-
feats which Washington has suffered
on the field of football. Until EN-
peror William can be made to give
up the struggle there is not much
chance for the university to win any
more games.
