Deaths–In the dawn of the 14th of January, Lilia Kawai, daughter of Elia Kanakanui of Maemae, died. The sickness that caused her death was bloody flux. She was a girl who lived properly, however she was fetched by the one who created her. For this life is a vapour.

Hey! “Just like the wish, so too is the desire.” The Paeaina is telling you, O Ailuene Buki [John E. Bush], don’t go off and get stranded in that desire. When Ka Oiaio is being buried in the grave of Ka Hoku o ke Kai, Ke Ola o Hawaii, Ka La o Hawaii, Ka Hoonanea, Na Lani Ehiku, Ka Elele Poakolu, Ka Elele puka la, Ke Alakai o Hawaii and the Makaainana, while the Paeaina continues to move forward, shining a light upon the glory and the good name of Hawaii nei; consistently fending off rebels and those trying to overthrow the nation to make Hawaii lose its independence, so that it can’t grow in the future. E Johnnie! Don’t open up your mouth again lest you get a welt on the forehead from the Paeaina.

A NEW YEAR SONG.
1
Afflicted with the frightful disease
That is hated by the multitudes
Faces turn away when seen
Shame fills the heart.
Cho.
Happy New Year! Happy New Year!! to you all,
All you friends,
Placed by the government,
On these unfamiliar shores.
2
I will have aloha
For the days of victory
We will rejoice together
The new year with family
3
The previous year has gone
With all of its hope
Here we all are
In this new year
4
Cheer up, cheer up
Don’t agonize and dismay
Remember the Heavenly Father
On this new year day
J. F. Allen,
Kalaupapa, Molokai.

The makaainana of the District of Koloa express their aloha and their deep appreciation for the two of you, O Fearless leaders of the Lahui; for your killing off the honor mischievously bestowed upon you by the enemies of the monarch, those who have aloha for their lahui, and those who are patriotic.

There are eight Hawaiian singing youths at the Cyclorama of Kilauea the Crater of Pele at Chicago, and it would appear as if they are on their way home with Moeheau [Mooheau] aboard the steamship Monowai, or perhaps aboard the Australia. Mr. Whitney saw and met with them in Chicago a few weeks ago. All of them were in good health, and they sang like the call of lovebirds.
