rant also free of insoluble matter and can be re-
tanned when the stomach refuses water.
HI has superseded Beef extracts aud tea
by Hospitals that made their own, and
they made n richer extract than they could
buy, using eight pounds of Beef to make
one of Extract, and mt a cost of SO per
cent. more than Liquid Food, which. is
many fold richer and available when a
patient refuses all Food Extracts or Tonics
The Surgical Staff Of the Murdoch

are in daily attendance, except Satur-
day, from to 10 a. M, to examine
patients and assign beds.
CAUTION-Remembe that nm Extract
offered the public the original Liquid
Food, and other names is NOT a Food, and
thai they use our trade mark, essays, hos
pitaI reports, etc., without our authority.
There never was an essay ever read before any
medical association in the world except on Muir
docks Liquid Food. said essays are In our pam
phlet, with our hospital reports, which is around
each bottle. Said parties we have sued for out
raging our rights, as by so DING they are deceiv-
ing the public.
Compare their testim oninIs from heirs of
deceased patients and their own help with
the above, amy that publish monthly,
and you will learn the value of their Ex-
tract, which was abandoned five years ago,
when they became bankrupt trying to hum-
bug the public, as they found il of mo value
then, and will soon again, at their cost,
as it is the same preparation now ms then,
so they ADVERTISE; they thinking by pub
fishing our Essays, Hospital Reports, and
appropriating trade mark, calling
their extract the Original Liquid Food
and other names, that they can effect more
sales than they can by their own efforts or

Hawaii. This feeling he explained as being
the result Of a strong conviction on the part
of the Japanese that the King and Govern
ment are their friends, and that should
any trouble arise they would be protected
in their rights. This feeling makes them
confident in the future, and DESTROYS that
their relatives should participate in the ad-
vantages which this country offers.
1t is exceedingly gratifying that the first
official report from these islands to the
Government of Japan will be of so favorable
a character. The interpreter proceeds to
Maui to complete his tour Of inspection, but
there is no reason to suppose that the report
for that island will differ any from that
which the visit TO Hawaii gave rise to.
On the other hand, so satisfactory has
been the experience of the planters with
their Japanese field hands, that funds were
provided to bring another thousand immi-
grants from Japan before the City of Toxic,
having Consul General Irwin on board,
sailed for Yokohama.

JAPANESE IMMIGRANTS.
They Report Uniform Satisfaction on
the Plantations.

Every thing that tends to throw light upon
the experiment of introducing Japanese
immigrants will be read with interest in
these islands as well as abroad. 1t is pet
idea with Hawaiian planters to draw their
feld-labor from Japan. AS far back as 1874
three -fourths of the planters expressed their
preference for japanese labor but it is only
recently that the present Government have
been able to act effectively in that direction.
The Japanese Government take a lively
interest in all that pertains to their people,
and already arrangements have been made
for sending an official report to the Bureau
of Foreign Affairs by the Japanese Consul in
Hawaii, Mr.. Nakamura. very intelligent
Japanese interpreter was sent to Hawaii by
the Consul, whose duty it was to visit all
the plantations where his countrymen are
employed and personally inquire into their
condition and prospects. He returned to
this city on Sunday, and in an interview
expressed himself as entirely satisfied.
During his tour he went to Hitchcock & Co. s
plantation, to Pepeekoa, LaupahOehoe, HO-
nokaa, Kohala, and other plantations on the
island of Hawaii.
On his return he was interviewed regard
ing his impressions. He said that he had
made personal inquiries from the Japanese
employed on Hawaii, and their invariable
reply was that they were perfectly satisfied
with their work; that they did not find the
/ labor on the plantations in this country as
arduous or severe as farm work i'll Japan,
and that it was much more pleasant than
! they had expected it would be. They were
uniformly we'll treated.
| In reply to the question as to how they
managed to get along with the animals on
/ the plantations, he replied that they were
awkward in handling them, but were very
anxious to learn. They realized the great
relief it would be to them. In Japan they
were compelled to carry heavy loads, not
having domestic beasts of burden. Here
they are apt to perceive the advantage of
them, and will soon be expert enough in
their management.
Instead of being home-sick after their
long voyage and anxious, none of them ex-
pressed any wish to go back, he said. On
the contrary, they had, as a rule, written to
their friends advising them to emigrate to

The Emerson NTinstreIs.

The fourth performance of the Emerson
California Minstrels took place last evening,
and was one of the best of the season. The
audience were treated to an entirely new
programme, that was good from beginning
to end
Mr.. Berger's accompaniments on the
piano to the singing were great improve
ment over previous Instrumentation, and
were fully appreciated by the singers as well
as the audience.
Mr.. Emerson pathetic ballad drew tears
(of laugAter), and the after-piece, Zone
Night in a Barroom," with Emerson, the
Cogill's, King and Walsh, was very amusing.
The pertaining of the programmes with
Male Cologne was a happy thought. The
next performance takes place tomorrow
night; the last one on Friday night.
