This unfailing topic of general conversation has suffered no diminution of late. Thunder, lighting, rain and hail, and even snow, according to some, have prevailed in quantities and duration beyond the memory of the “oldest inhabitant.” On Friday night, the 14th inst., hail fell in Koolauloa on this island, and we are told, in quantities to be scooped up by the hands, and people crossing the Waianae mountains that night report that snow fell thick on the mountain peaks. On Saturday morning the thermometer in Honolulu stood at 53°, and credible people aver that the saw snow flakes in the air, though they melted by or before touching the ground. Wednesday morning, this week, a thunderstorm passed over this town from the Southwest which, for sharpness of lightning and loudness of thunder, was the severest of many years. The lightning apparently played over the town in every direction, yet, we are happy to say, without any damage, excepting that a Chinaman was knocked down in the street and remained for some time perfectly paralysed before coming to, and a man, hoisting the colors on a flagstaff, felt a blow over the wrist which benumbed the hand for upwards of an hour before it passed off. In the afternoon of the same day the weather cleared up a little, but during the night, between 11½ and 3 o’clock, the thunderstorm raged again in all imaginable fury, accompanied with showers of rain so severe that it seemed almost impossible for any roofing to withstand the force of the fall or the weight of the falling water. The Waikiki plains were at one time almost literally a sheet of water, and partial freshets occurred in several directions, though the main river of the Nuuanu Valley was not filled so as to endanger the bridge leading over it. How many inches, or rather feet, of rain fell that night we have not learned, but the amount must have been enormous.
[This was a very strange year. Hualalai was cloaked in snow as well!]

Big Troupe of Wrestles Arrives on Tenyo Maru—Matches Begin Saturday
Headed by Tachiyama, mightiest wrestler of all Japan, a troupe of 54 of the greatest mat artists of Dai Nippon arrived this morning on the T. K. K. liner Tenyo Maru. They have come to Honolulu for a series of performances, beginning on Saturday night at Athletic park.
Tremendous big fellows, mighty of girth and of limb, are these Japanese wrestlers, and as they lined the deck of the Tenyo Maru this morning they attracted the immediate attention of the thousands of Japanese and others who had assembled at the dock. The picturesque dress of the Nipponese wrestler—silken over-kimono, a sort of under-garment falling below the knees, girdle, and above all the peculiar headdress—make the athletes conspicuous anywhere, and they are still more conspicuous because of their size, far greater than that of the ordinary Japanese.
The wrestlers will be in Hawaii for several weeks. The arrangements for the series of matches at Athletic park are nearly complete. The matches start at 7 o’clock on Saturday night, and a number of local Japanese athletes are anxious to match skill and brawn against the famed champions from the empire.
This morning and informal committee of Japanese went out to the Tenyo Maru to receive the wrestlers. Arthur K. Ozawa, who has been somewhat in charge of the advance arrangements here, and several Japanese newspapermen met the steamer off port. At the dock to receive their comrades were W. Uchiumi and K. Yamanishi, who arrived here on May 22 as advance agents for the troupe. Uchimi is a retired wrestler and will probably act as referee at some of the matches.
The wrestlers will be matched somewhat according to weight and previous records. Tachiyama is billed to appear every night. He has been the undisputed champion of Japan since he won the title in a series of desperate matches with contenders for the crown left by Hitachiyama, an old veteran who was declared to be the greatest of all Japan’s champions.
Tachiyama has amassed a fortune estimated at half a million dollars during his career. He is a big, good-natured man, standing about six feet three inches and weighing in the neighborhood of 315 pounds. He is said to be quick in spite of his enormous size. Many of these wrestlers seem to be mountains of flesh, which is an advantage at the Japanese style of wrestling in short, furious bouts much like two bulls locking horns.
Spectators at Athletic park recently have noticed a high skeleton tower of wood being erected in deep center field and wondered what the structure was for. This is put up to observe and old custom in Japanese wrestling circles. Early in the morning on the day when matches are to take place, a gong is beaten for a half hour to an hour by a herald who announces the matches.
Champion Wrestler of All Japan Here With Comrades
Tachiyama (“Mountain of Swords”), who is the premier mat artist of Japan, will appear nightly at the local matches.

“The Queen never will be restored to the throne, for she will be shot within 24 hours, and every man who takes office under her will be shot also—we have men secretly sworn to do it.”
Such was the remark made to the writer by a brainless young sprig of the “citizens reserve,” such is the tenor of numerous open threats of the canaille composing the annexation club, the citizens reserve and the American league organizations that pretending to be patriotically American are in fact veritable nests of socialism, fenianism and mafia.
To their shame be it said that these mafias are organized under men calling themselves Americans, men who heretofore have been regarded as respectable and intelligent citizens: Hatch, Castle, Wilder, Jones, Smith, McGrew, Emerson, and so on, whose names will pass into history as knavish pirates in a plot to steal a nation and compel America to receive the stolen goods.
A recent article in the Holomua warned that a wave of insanity had struck Honolulu in accordance with a well known theory of cycles. The malady appears to be growing worse, for certain it is, that all the men and women concerned in the overthrow of the Queen, the terrorism and misgovernment of a P. G. military despotism, and the present display of hostilities against the United States, all act like people demented. Continue reading
