I passed this before i got off the bus at Punchbowl today, and so i walked back and took a picture. Here is a nice description of some of the events taking place this Sunday, September, 2, 2012.
Also, one week later on the 8th, more celebration, Hilo style.
[How about everywhere else? Anybody have information on other celebrations?]
ONIPAA
This coming 2nd of September is the Birthday of Queen Liliuokalani who will be 74 years old. Go, all you who have aloha for your alii, and visit the royal one.

There are some typesetters of the [Hawaii] Holomua Newspaper setting type of that famous kaao, Leinaala, as a book; it will be ready and for sale to the public perhaps within ten days [anahulu]. Being that this was a story that was beloved by many people when it was published half in the “Elele” and finished in the newspaper “Ko Hawaii Pae Aina,” it will certainly be much sought after. The cost per copy is $1.50.
[Does anyone know of any library where this book might be found?]

[This is a nice mele describing a journey to and around Hawaii Island. It is a much longer version than the one cited from King’s Book of Hawaiian Melodies, on huapala.org, and is given a different title. Sadly, the early years of “Ka Hoku o Hawaii” (in which this article is included) are not online yet.]

Honolulu, Aug. 27—Typhoid fever has spread severely in the district of Waimanalo, and there are a great many people who have been inflicted with the fever; the Board of Health [Papa Ola] is working to extinguish this frightening disease.

[It seems the Senate Honored the entertainers and workers of the Lexington Hotel’s Hawaiian Room on its 75th anniversary just the other month!
There is also going to be a presentation related to this at the Distinctive Women in Hawaiian History Program on Saturday, September 15, 2012)
Unfortunately, the available digital image is as seen below, the actual newspaper image should probably be much more clear and legible.]

The many pictures below show Arthur Rice fishing with a throw net, one of the foremost fishermen using a throw net. These are pictures taken recently at Kipukai, Kauai.

[The newspapers don’t only contain words. After about 1900 there appear photos, and many like these are much clearer in the original. There needs to be clear shots of the papers done. I almost could not make out some of the text in the top description!]

Does anyone recognize the name Maewaikalani (from the mele in the last post, “He Inoa no ke Oho o Kapiolani” by Mrs. Kaleihiwahiwa) as a known name for Kapiolani?

[This newspaper, Ka Elele Poakolu, is yet another one not available online even if it is microfilmed. I am not sure how ulukau.org missed digitizing this when they were under agreement many years ago to put up all of the available newspapers online… To view the pages, you have to find your way down to one of the institutions which have Hawaiian-Language Newspaper microfilms.
Might anyone have any biographical information on Mrs. Kaleihiwahiwa?]
