Democratic Sentinel, Volume 15, Number 46, Rensselaer, Jasper County, 4 December 1891 — Queen Emma o the Sandwich Islands. [ARTICLE]

Queen Emma o the Sandwich Islands.

The Queen of the Sandwich Islands is not only a very great favorite with the natives, but is also largely affected by the English colony. Bhe has been twice to England and received much attention and many presents from Queen Victoria. Her one-quarter quota of native blood gives her the appearance of a brunette. She is 46 years old, and, like all native women whose lives are of content and easy indolence, seems to be mnch younger. She resembles the pictures of Victoria taken twenty years ago. Queen Emma is what at an American watering place might be termed a “stunning” dresser, and is possessed of a mania for being photographed in different costumes and attitudes. At Montano’s, the swell photographer of Honolulu, she is seen m no less tlian twenty-five different photographs. and in no two of them in the same dress.
