IN tire silent waste of the hroal Pa- ,
citie < >ceau, 2000 miles or more j
from Sail Francisco, lie the sunny
isles of Hawaii, which sorao daj
may be a part of the Uuitcd States of
America.
When you steam into the Iiarbsr of
Honolulu you be^in to catch the flavor
of the island. At one side tower t w* i
gigantic mountain |>eaks of Molokai, 1
where the leper lives. | i
A line of fonni-fritigeJ reofs i\n 1 1
a stretch of gloaming sand, where * >
single group of sontinel palms rear their
heads iii tropic beauty, make up the tir.t I
glimpse of tho island. Still bsyoad t
these palms~can bo seen the steeples and 1
flagstaff* and gray cmbossc I greea roofs '
of Honolulu, whilo, frowning down upon {
it in the fur background, is tho deal
magnificence of a crushed volcano.
Toe docks at Houolulu. which is tho
capital city of the Island Kingdom, present
a curious spectacle. To greet the
big iron Paciht Mail steamer, says tin
New York Journal, there fleet brown,
"coppery colored natives, in their simple,
il ivvcr-dcckcd garbs, almond-eye I
Chinamen, little subject! of the .Mika lo,
Portuguese, Germans, Britons, Americans,
all coolly clad in white duct.
Honolulu lias a population of 25,00(
souls. It has tiftceu miles of street railway,
1300 telephones, 300 public hacks,
macadamized streets, lighted by electricity,
and in its business part is well
built of brick and stone. Its resident
portion is almost entirely of wood.
In Honolulu, as everywhere else in
tho islands, one is struck by the chtrac
tor of the population, Americans, ten
glisli and Germans number only 4VK)
in all the islands. Portugal hai f?irnished
HOOO people, while China furnishes
20,000, the laboring classes in the
island being nearly all Chinamen.
Of the pure native that once upon a
time ate up Captain Cook, there are less
than 115,000, and they are dying at the
rate of two per cent, a year. But the
native had married with the alien races
before dying, and the result is the half
caste race, which numbers about 60 10
and is very inllucutial socially and politically.
As you drive through the streets in the
hush of the early morniug, you soon
learn what is meant by the luxuriant repose
of the tropic. The bloom of unwonted
flowers, the burnished sheen of
the leaves, the lance-like foliage of the
palms, all tell you that you are far away
from battling New York.
The Hawaiian home Is in itself a type.
It is but one story in height, with a
broad Inuai or wide verandah in front,
into which open wide doors from parlor,
dining room, billiard, and, in fact, from
all the rooms on the iirst floor, the lanai
being a sort of common meeting ground
for everybody.
Swinging in a hamtuocic, one can
watch the white-fringed reefs where the
loug Pacific breaks. Below you lies the
town in indolent repose, and you drink
Iiu the mellow air and become a lotus

tropics, miml you. Toe windows are
shaded by blinds and curtains, the floors
arc matted, with easy, light aud graceful
furniture. The slecpiug rooms above
are planned for comfort, too, for ico is
a manufactured luxury iu Honolulu,
aud "keep cool'' is the motto of its citizen.
Still, there arc many more pretentious
homes than the one describe I iu Honolulu,
built after the American and English
styles. (Jlaus Sprcckels, the "Sugar
King"' of Hawaii, owns a splendid brick
palace, while the Government House, or
the palace of the recently dethroned
Queen, aud the Queen's Hospital are
modern brick houses ot elegance. In
fact, Honolulu is a town where civilization
is at high tide.
In no city in the world is thcro so
much business done by telephone as in
Honolulu. Nearly every bouse in the
city can be communicated with. One
fairly lives iu a network of wires. The
shop, the market, the doctor, the dentist,
the undertaker, all respond to t'oU
long distance talk, and no small amount
of gossip wings its way over the sensitivo
wires. It is so easy to laze away the day
on your lanai, with a telephone at your
elbow, through which you can chat with
your friends.
"In the lauai wc take no note of time,"
is a favorite Hawaiian saying.

moonlight, during these concern,
while stately palms mako fantastic silhouettes

call winter as well as in summer, the
Hawaiian devotes to pleasure. In Honolulu
baseball is the fad. All the island
world goes to the grounds and watches
gentlemen teams play. Many of the
young ladies in the city go to the grounds
on horseback ; some ridiug astride iu male
fashion, but always with escorts. Then
the Hawaiian Jockey Club has a race
track near Honolulu, and to it, during
the racing season, the fair world and the
brown world of Hawaii go.

fruit, from which taro flour is made.

mi Clad in their patchwork rags, with

if the mainland, with the exception of
he Ensenada do Ciiainela tisherioi. The
onsidcration is tho payment by the commuy
of $10 per ton of pearl oysters ohaiued
in the first throe years, and $12
>cr ton during tho remaining thirteen
ears of the leaso.
The fisheries are to ho divide 1 into
wo portions, to he worked alternately
