In order to avoid any possibility of doubt or misunderstanding on the sub- ject, although I do not think that any doubt or misunderstanding Is either proper or possible, I hereby do fully and unequiv- cally admit and declare that the govern- ment of tke republic of Hawaii is the only lawful government of the Hawatian Isi- ands, and that the late Hawaiian mon- archy is finally end forever ended, and no longer of any legal or actual validit force or effect whatsoever; and I do he by forever absolve all persons whomsoever, whether in the Hawaiian Islands or where, from all and every manner of giance or official otligation or duty to me and my eirs and successors forever, and 1 hereby declare to all such persons in the Hawaiian Islands that I consider them as bound in duty and honor henceforth to support and sustain the government of the republic of Hawaii. Second. For myself, my heirs and succes- sors, I do hereby end without any mental reservation or madification, and fully, final- ly, unequivocally, irrevocably and forever, abdicate, renounce and relase unto the go ernment of the republic of Hawali and iis legitimate successors forever all claims or pretensions whatsoever to the late throne of Hawali, or to the laie monarshy of Ha- wali, or to any past, or to the existing, or to any future government of Hawaii, or under or by reason of any preseat or form- erly existing constitution, statute, law, po- sition, right or claim of any and every miral Bunce has put to sea in the face of storm signals. In the first instance, which occurred last summer, the battle ship In- diana fared badly, and one of her junior officers lost a leg in the unfortunate result. In the latest instance the ficet fared worse, both in the loss of men and damage to vessels. The Admiral Defended. But the hardy old admiral is not without admirers who justify his course in the face of these criticisms. One of the latter said of the matter: “What are warships for if not to go to sea at any and all times? There has been no little criticism indulged in of late from within and without the navy both as to the character of the mod- ern vessels of our navy and the ability of their commanders. It has been intimated that it was a serious question whether many of our ships were seaworthy in the fullest sense, and a few unfortunate mis- haps have furnished subjects for criticism of the sea-going accomplishments of offi- cers of rank. “Admiral Bunce has demonstrated that both criticisms are unfounded. He has demonstrated the seaworthiness of his fleet and the ability of his commanding officers to successfully weather the severest gales. It is true the demonstration has cost life and some minor damage to one or two of his vessels, but in the opinion of many of us the good accomplished is commensurate with the sacrifice. Officers, men and their countrymen will feel greater confidence in each other from the result. “If our navy was of such a character that it was only available during the calm of a midsummer the people who pay for its maintenance would feel that they had been making investments in nautical gold bricks.” Utility of the Monitors. Another matter which the result of the cruise has brought prominently forward i3 the utility of the vessels of the monitor type. The reports all indicate that the Amphitrite weathered the gale as well as the stanchest ships of the fleet. Friends of this type of vessel claim that this latest severe test goes far to disprove the claim that the monitor class is not available in a heavy seaway. When this claim is suc- cessfully disproved by a few more similar tests, they argue that it is only a question of time till the adoption of the monitor type as the most desirable warship for the ‘This elegant Upright Piand has only been slight- ly used, and to close the account of party who 1s unable ‘to complete the payments for it we offer it for $175.

This was not artistic, but ex- ceedingly useful. To prevent the possible intrusion of thieves, the Waldorf was guarded by more detectives in citizens’ dress than had ever before been found necessary at any pri- vate entertainment of New York society. Chief Conlin laughingly remarked to a friend that the Cercle de I"Harmonie Fran- cais never made such serious demands on the police force.

The royal couple were represented by John Jacob Astor and Mrs. Bradley-Mar- tin. At their side were tne second couple, J. J. Van Alen and Mrs. Stuyvesant Fish. Opposite to these four were .

On the 24th day of January, A. D. 1895, the foregoing was in our presence read over and considered carefully and deliber- ing and singing around the aged Tristano, when Castelmury fell to the floor. Little atte: tion was paid to this and in @ moment the singer arose to his feet and his great voice could be heard above the united chorus. In two minutes Castel- mary darted toward a table at one side of the stage and grasped hold of it. The curtain was shot down swiftly and just as it reached the stage, Castelmary @ropped to the floor with a groan. In 2 moment, Jean de Reszke, who was a life- long friend of Castelmary, seized the stricken singer in his arms. He was un- conscious and died in a few minutes. Jean de Reszke had a presentiment that something would occur to his friend last end “Worthington = = SS M, Carnochan, sixteenth’ cen- ately by Liliuokalani Dominis, and she, the COMMISSIONER OF DEEDS | tury:"Mrs. Georae B. de Forest, “Titers | might.

H. F. COLMAN ARRAIGNED. Witnesses Say That the Sale of Periodical Stamps ix Common. Hamilton F, Colman, the general land of- fice clerk, accused of having had “period- ical” stamps in his possession, was before United States Commissioner Shields for ex- amination in New York yesterday Pericdical stamps are not intended for issue, but used as a check agu post- n.asters for money received for newspaper and periodical postage. Assistant United States District Attorney Hinman read the sections of the Revised Statutes which prohibit any one from hav- ing in his possession any of the “period- ical” stamps, such as were found in Col- man’s possession. ust Thomas W. Connolly, who has charge of “periodical” stamps in the post office in New York, said those found in Colman’s pessession were of the series of 1875, now out of use, Stamps of this kind were of- ten seen in stamp dealers’ windows. Though the stamps were not intended to go out of the service, they had been sold to Lewspapers until an order from Washing- ten stopped it. : R. F.\ Albrecht, a stamp dealer of ‘*) Nas- sau street, testified that he did not believe the stamps in question were genuine. Such stamps were openly sold by the govern- ment between. 1835.and 1882, and also at public auctions. He had bought the stamps Colman had when arrested from a man in Washington, but had induced the man to take them back because he-did not think they, were genuine. The hearing was adjourned = eS NO.
