ANOTHER CHARACTERISTIC INCIDENT. Onceniore m after years the Polyne sian blood of tba future patron nf the axe and block showd itself through the thin rouge of civilization with which she ciiose to covr ber real nature, Liliuokalant was in London then, a distinguished guest atyiaen Victoria's jubilee. During tbe festivities the news of the uprising here which forced Kalakaua to accept a liberal constitution wag carried to her. "Did my brother yieMT'she said,"Ah,if I bad bn there t tie streets of Hono lulu would hav run with blool before I ihonll have let bim give way an inch." Iu these piras spoke th im placable savage of the ancient Poly nesian type, "a chiefess' as the Ha waiian title goes who oould bare stood by and seen the neads of white haired missionaries fail into the basket with th same leer of barbarous con tent on her face with which sh watched live pigs roast on the hot crust of Ktlanea s crater, when sh made her pagan sacrifice, not many years ago, to the fabled gjddess of the burning lake. Knowing th "x-queen a they did, the annexation party was not surprised at br demand tor blool, but the royal ists were thrown into a state of politi cal excitement and despair. They knew the natnre of tbeir mistress well enough, but they thought that she bad th cunning to dissamhle un til she had been restored to power. Their intelligence told thrn that the United States would never seat her oa the Hawaiian tbron after snch a display of blo.dthistina as she had made. On all sides the word was passed tbat Lillnokolani had ceased to be a factor in the political equation. The thought common among the monarchist leaders was-what next. Naturally Guardian Davie had a sug gestion to make. It wis Lainlani. In a letter to a royalist journal h ex pressed abhorrence on the conduct of the ex-qneen, and went so far as tossy that previous acts of bers, of mnch less savag purport, had absolved her fol lowers from the duty of allegiance to her. KAIL'LANi's HLHMRTERS' PLOT. Privately among the royalists he be gan a Kaiulani propaganda, and, al though the nam of the princess bas not hitherto been one to cot.jure with In tha Hawaiin Islands h has managed to give ber canse a standing which it bad never beforo been able to obtain. It may now he said that Hawaii has a Kaiulani party, small, but capable of growing larger. Davies Is a 'man of wealth and culture, but of ultra-British monarchist principles. For five years and he bus had charge of the princess as her guardian, and hehas moulded her youthful mind with skillful touch nn til she is now, in all but blood am) color, an English gentlewoman. To put bor on the throne, to m.rry hsr to his son, to govern her through her husband and through the Scotchman (Cleghorn), who calls himself her father, and to aecure for his further reward tb post of Hawaiian minister to the court of St James', are the lond ambitions for which Davies works early and late. Kaiulani will have behind her the strength and prestige of Davies' in Ali enee and wealth ; th help of a part of the younger native element iu the ( Royalist party; the diplomatic cun ning of British ministef resident, ami the sympathy of the Koglish-Hawaii -ans generally. Still, this will avail her nothing, unless the Royal ists revolt and succeed in an effort to overthrow tbe existing government. I donbt if their most sanguine supporters think this ran be done in th ordinary course of events. Their hope undoubtedly is that the an nexation party will break up into con tending factions, and that, taking ad vantage of the confusion which may follow, the Monarchists will gain their end. It is proper to say that many of the published stories about the meutal ill health of President Dole nre the result either of misinformation or malic. By overwork and two itiss of a groat strai n of anxiety the president began to fl a species of brain fag. which, while it did not dim his intellectual processes, made it advisable that he should unburden hitusdf of much of the detail work Which Ml to him in his double capacity of President and minister of foreign affairs.

Dr. McDonald had been appointed by Pastor Hill to ceUbrat the mass at 10 o'clock, and also the high mass at 11. During the celebration of the for mer th worshipers were amazed to se Dr. McDonald approach Father Hill, who entered to assist at the cele bration, and strike him a violent blow, felling tba pastor' to the floor. Be fore Father Hill could rise Dr. McDonald came to tbe chancel rail. and gesticulating wildly, exclaimed that there had been a conspiracy ba tween Father Hill and Bishop Mc Donald to drive him from the diocese Hi then turned and again assaulted Father Hill. Parishioners finally rushed forward and held him until the arrival of officers He was subsequent ly taken to St. Peter's hospital for treat ment in chargs of an officer. It is said tnat he had been notified through the bishop's secretary that be would not be made a -regular priest of tne diocese and this fact weighted upon his mind.

Hy tbe time the department got fairly to work onhalf the long building connecting tb two armories was ablaze from base to attic, and tne efforts of the firemen were then directed to sav iug tbe east armory. Lines of hose were soon ruu up into the third and fourth floors of the east armory, and the progress of the flames was headed off in that directiou. The fir, In the meantime, was slow ly working its way toward the West armory, a building 500 feet long and three stories high. It hud already eaten through a brick tire wall a foot thick and was working its way through the attic over the heads of the firemen, who wero bravely trying to stop its progress on the fljor below.
