(By Associated Press) Ex-Queen Liliuokalani died Sunday night, and in her death a picturesque figure of current history has passed. With the death of Queen Liliuokalani has passed the last vestige of royalty in the Hawaiian Islands.

Hut notwithstanding her ef- j facement from public affairs, Queen j Liliuokalani never abandoned her regal pose nor lost the afTection of I her former subjects, and continued to her death a most interesting personality. She was born September 2, 1838, j in Honolulu. Her name was Lydia ' Kamakacha. In her memoirs, "Ha- _ waii's History by Hawaii's Queen," she traced her ancestry back to the '' foundation of the Kamohameha dyn- o asty and claimed relationship to the n royal family of the five sovereigns of w that name. j] In accordance with a custom com- ;i mon in Hawaii in those days, Liliuo- j? kalani was given away in her infancy jf r..4i? 4- it? > - ? ..v,i laiiict anuuier cmei, oy w whom she was adopted in exchange for one of his children, this custom ,] being observed to cement ties be- p ^ tween the different clans and chiefs. c] The future queen's new mother was a Konia, granddaughter of Kameliam- 0] sha I. Her adopted father was Paki, ,] a high chief. They had a daughter rl of their own, Bcrnico Pauahi, who H later became Mrs. Charles R. Bishop, tl Liliuokalani's own parents had nine d other children, most of whom, like w herself, were adopted into other fami- jr, lies. One of them was Kalaukaua, af- sl terwards king and Liliuokalani's pred- ar ecessor on the throne. w The younjr princess received her education in old Royal school, all the to pupils of which were children of the u; royal family or of the high chiefs. It le y was white attending this school that ?( Liliuokalani first met the boy who ai later became her husband, John O. p; Dominis, son of an American sea cap- bl tain. She was married to him Sep- ct * tember 10, 1802, and she and her hus- ai s band moved to Washington Place a< which Captain Dominis, her father-in- e? law, had built as a private residence, ti; Long after, when she was driven frorry ti the throne of Hawaii, she retire!} ue again to this place and it was her w: home during the remainder of her ot life. Dominis, the future queen's hus-;th hand, was appointed on the staff of'ti* j Prince Ixit ,and when the latter ascended the throne as Kamehameha V. pi I in November, 1808, was named as the I in king's private secretary and confi-! pi dential adviser. Dominis was later ; made governor of Oahu, which posi- it; tion he held until his death in 1891. w Liliuokalani ascended the throne of fc Hawaii January 29, 1891, immediate- m ly following the receipt of news froir v< C.,r. l.'. : il-..

Ka- m lakaua in November of the preceding J? _ year had taken a trip to California in as the guest of Read Admiral Brown th on the United States cruiser Charles- ti t ton in order to recruit his failing o< ; health, but he failed rapidly. s( There was at that time no trans- m ! pacific cable, so the news of the king's n< ! death reached Honolulu by the ship in p that bore his body. Preparations had I been made to receive the returning w monarch in elaborate style, but as the di f Charleston approached the harbor, she S [ displayed the royal mourning signal. v< \ and I.iliuokalani knew before the ves- tl \ sel docked that she was the new ruler p: > of the Hawaiian Islands. ai Kalakaua hail been extremely reac- ri ~ tionary in all his tendencies as ruler, and his sister,was even more inclined g toward absolutism. In 1880 Kalakaua. n accompanied by a numerous retinue E of Hawaiians and Americans, went on e his famous trip around the world, and e during his absence of about a year. ;1 his sister had ruled as regent of thejsi I kingdom. p In 1887 Liliuokalani herself visited! ii foreign countries. She went to Lon- a don to participate in the golden jubilee celebration of Queen Victoria. It fi was always afterwards her boast that g she was kissed and embraced by Brit- n : ain's queen.

This league, becoming secretly powerful, made a demonstra- s tion which had thoroughly frightened h King Kalakaua, who agreed to a new o constitution along the lines demanded, r This was shown as the Constitution I of 1887. It was signed 20 days be- il fore Liliuokalani's return from iJon- a don. She was greatly incensed when t she learned of it, and referred to it then and ever afterward as the "Bai- h onet Constitution." v Following Kalakaua'g death, Liliu- \ okalani began her reign with renewed p CONSTIPATION CAUSES!

Her first love was to appoint a new cabinet ith the members of which she made ic condition that she should contend !1 appointments. Immediate dissatfaction on the part of the white reslents was caused by the manner in hich this power was used. One thing that led directly to the wnfall of the monarchy, was the assage of an act granting a franhise to establish a lottery, and of nother act licensing the sale of piuni. Later the queen caused to be rawn up a new constitution, in se et, striking at the rights of the nonawaiian residents of the Islands. By lis document some of the principal leeks upon the power of the crown ere to he removed, the existing larantees of the independence of the ipreme court were to he eliminated id only native Hawaiian subjects ere to be allowed to vote. The queen had made preparations proclaim the new constitution Janiry 14', 1893, immediately after the gislature had been prorogued. The lvernment troops had been drawn up id a large crowd of those who symithized with the queen were assemcd when, at the last moment, the ihinet refused to sign the document id appealed to leading citizens fnr lvice and support. After a long and ceiting argument, Liliuokalani parilly yielded. From the balcony of e palace she addressed the people, mounced the cabinet and said that, ith deep regret, she had been iligcd to postpone for the present e proclamation of the new constitu:>n. The queen's bold attempt to de ive the white residents of any voice the affairs of government led to onipt retaliatory measures. The business men of the communy named a "Committee of Safety" hich proceeded immediately with the >rmation of a provisional governent and the reorganization of the >lunteer military companies which ul been disbanded in 1890. The committee of safety called a ass meeting for the afternoon of inuary 1(5. This meeting, disregardg a statement by the queen that lenceforth changes in the constituon would be sought "only by meth1s provided in the constitution it;lf," ratified the action of the comlittee and authorized it to take all ecessary steps to carry its objects ito effect.
