HONOLULU, —Some discoveries | made in an ar urial cave on the | Island of Hawaii suggest that the re- | mains of Kamehameha'I, the conqueror | of all the Hawalian group of islands, may | at last have been found. Besides several wooden idols of the kind usus ornamenting ancient there were found in the cave several cala- | bashes, or bow!s, ornamented with teeth and containing human bones. intact, together with a roval cloak and some rare tapas. Tradition has it that the remains o(‘ Kamehameha, after the death ceremonies over them were concluded, were whisked way by two high chiefs, one of whom | was Holualoa and the other Hoopili. The remains were supposed to be buried in the face of a cliff on the Kona coast. Some think they were taken farther away. Kamehameha I died on May 8, 1818, King Kalakaua at one time claimed to have found the remains of Kamehameha I, and these “remains” were inclosed in a casket and now occupy space in the Royal Mausoleum, in the same room with the caskets of the Kalakaua dynasty. That the *“‘remains” have never been ac- cepted as the genuine relics of the con- queror is attested by the fact that no move has ever been made to place them in the vault with the other members of the Kamahameha dynasty.

LIBERAL PARTY RENT BY STRIFE Irish - Members ]Iav Wleld Balance of Power in Next House of Parliament ROSEBERY ¢ TIRS STORM Rupture Caused by His Re- jection of Campbell-Ban- nerman’s Home Rule Idea Special Dispatch to The Call. LONDON, Nov. 27.—Like the breach be- tween Premier Balfour and Joseph Cham- berlain last week, the split in the Liberal party is mow receiving the attention of the public. The cause of the rupture is Lord Rosebery’s emphatic refusal to serve or to fight under Sir Henry Camp- bell-Bannerman's flag of home rule for ! Ireland. The Unionists, looking on with mingled joy and amusement. entertain the hope that irreconcilable discord in the Liberal ranks may afford them, after all, a fighting chance in the coming elec- tions. An interesting feature which the Lib- eral mutiny develops Is the growing prob- ability that John Redmond’s Irish party will come dangercusly near wielding the balance of power in the next House of Commons. which, it is now .perfectly clear, will contain two Liberal and two Conservalive factions. Between these two warring groups the Irishmen expect to sit as the one united and cohesive party in Parliament. Sir Edward Gray, who was Under Sec- retary for Foreign Affairs in the Liberal Cabinet of 1892-%, speaking at Newcastle~ on-Tyne to-night attempted to dissipate the widespread impression that the posi- tions takem by Lord Rosebery and Sir Henry Campbeil-Bannerman are irtecon- cilable. He sald he thought Lord Rose- bery had put a wrong construction on Sir Henry’'s speech at Stirling, and that undoubtedly an explanation from the lat- | ter would prove there had been a misun-~ derstanding. Austen Chamberlain, Chancellor of the Exchequer, speaking at Redditch to- night, safd that the crisis in the Cabinet existed solely in the imagination of the newspapers. There was no such crisis, he declared, and he added that he was un- able to say when the general elections would take place. KING HAAKON TAKES THE OATH OF OFFICE Cordial Message Is Received From Osear of Sweden. CHRISTIANIA, Nov. 27.—King Haakon, before the Norwegian Parliament at noon to-day, took the oath to support the con- stitution. The King entered with the Queen on his left arm. Surrounded by their suites and bowing to President Ber- ner, the King and Queen ascended the tribune and the former seated himself on the throne, the Queen seating herseif on a chalr beside the King. President Berner, approaching the King. delivered a brief address. Then, in a loud volce, the King pronounced the prescribed oath. In a subsequent speech his Majesty said his motte was “All for Norway.™ He hoped the whole nation.would co- operate in his efforts to benefit the coun- try and sald he would govern according to the comstitution and the people’s will as represented by Parllament. Among the congratulatory dispatches from the heads of other nations received by King Haakon was the following from King Oscar of Sweden: » “In thanking your Majesty for the tele- gram announcing your accession to the throne of Norway, [ beg that you be persuaded that every effort looking to good relations between our two countries will be given a sympathetic reception | on my part.” —————— Burglars Rald a Pesthouse.

Every year every person in America concentrates all his thoughts upon one thing, the cata- loguing of his reasons for being thankful to the Deity for the blessings conferred upon him and upon the hu- man race during the expiring twelve months. This is well and as it should be, but it is too one-sided. No one ever seems to think of the Deity's side of it; apparently no one concerns him- | self to inquire how much or how little | He has had to be thankful for during the same period; apparently no one has had good feeling enough to wish that He might have a Thanksgiving day. There is nothing right about this. We may be unstintedly thank- ful, but can that be really the case with Him? “If He had a voice, how would He re- gard the year's results in Russia? What would He be thankful for there? Serv- ants of that Government, in patriotic obedience to its commands, have lately killed and wounded 50,000 Jews by unusual | and unpleasant methods, butchering men and women with the knife and bayonet, | flinging them out of windows, saturating , them with kerosene and setting fire to them, shutting them up in cellars and smothering them with smoke, drenching children with boiling water, tearing other children asunder by methods of the mid- dle ages. Doubtless the most that He can be thankful for is that the carnage and suffering are not as bad as they might have been. “He will have ‘noticed that life insur- {ance in New York has gone intolerably ! rotten, and that the widow and the or- phan have had a sorrowful time of it at . the hands of their chosen ‘protectors. ! Doubtles the most that He is thankful for is that the rottenness and robberies have not been absolutely complete. “One is justified in fearing that the Diety’s Thanksgiving vay is not as rosy ~gs ours will appear when Th..nk..mn‘ sentiments blossom out in our journals,' ‘and that it He, now voiceless, should ut- ter a sentiment it would be tinged with a pathetic regret.” Needham to Support President. 4 ‘WASHINGTON, Nov. 27.—Congress- Unquestionab'y in _the city. 201 and 203 200 and 202 man Needham of California called at the White House to-day and assured the President of his support on railroad rate question. the Overcoats and Craven- ette Rain Coats for Men $15 to $40 the largest variety and the best selection Alfred Lilienfeld Co.
