"Who changed the Sabbath ~ was
the subject Sunday night. The ma
jorIty of Christendom observe the first
day of the week, Sunday, as their day
of rest. The Bible commands the
seventh day. But not shadow OF
authority can be found in it, for keep
ing the first day of the week. The first
day of the week was the day on which
the pagans worshipped the sun, this
gave it the name of ebay of the sun,
or Sunday. The first law that can be
found for its observance was made by
Constantine in A. d. 32I. This law
was for observing the day as heather
festival In A. d. gas Bishop, now
called Pope, Sylvester tried to compel
the church to keep that day instead Of
the seventh. And he used the law Of
Constantine to enforce it
About A. d. 365, the Roman Cath
Ole Church adopted the first day OF
the week to take the place of the Bible
Sabbath, they claiming that the Church,
not the Scriptures, is the guide; Pro
testants deny this claim, and say the
Bible is our guide. The Roman Cath
ohcs admit that they made this change
of the Sabbath, and often, and we
think justly, accuse Protestants of being
inconsistent, in holding to a day that has
no Bible authority for its observance,
but rests wholly on the DEGREES of the
Catholic Church, and at the same time
throwing away the day commanded IN
the Bible, while claiming the Bible
and not the Church as their guide.
Priests in California have offered one
thousand dollars for a single text OF
Scripture for keeping the first day OF
the week. The reward is still open.
Let us have consistency between pro-
fession and practice.
The fourth beast of Daniel 7 is said
to be the fourth Kingdom, verse 20;
this was Rome. The ten horns are the
ten Kingdoms into which Rome was
divided between A. d. $50 and 4S3.
The little horn that came up among
them was the Popacy, as Protestants
agree. The works of this power are
presented in verse rs; among them is
the declaration that he shall ''think to
change times and laws" referring to
the laws of the Most High. The only
time God has reserved as His is the
seventh day Sabbath, and this is the only
time given in the law. And here is where
the church has asserted her power and
boasts of her apparent success. Being a
Protestant | Of course deny the au
thority of the church to change Gods
law, and therefore, to be consistent

Rev. c. M. Hyde at the funeral Of the
late Rev. Dwight Baldwin, M. d. 1t
might be well to remark that the Oppo-
sition press will fully discuss the three
political issues suggested by the
E'7ead as soon as they are fully before
the public. 1t is generally impolitic
on the eve of genral election to an
ticipate the future evil actions of the
Gibson Administration, when there are
so many recorded actions of the past
to comment upon.
They say; That the Opposition has
got "Lahaina. o, Lahaina that the
steamer Planter was worth over 500,
900; that the Planter has been in the
habit of making odd trips to Niihau for
a long time; that the Captain Of the
Planter did not want to go this time on
account of the rough weather; that the
defense in the Walker case only ask a
fair trial and no favors; that the native
politicians were as thick as gin corks
yesterday; that the fourth of February
will be cold day for some of the poll
ticlans; that the editor of the Pae nina
has not been sued yet as was
threatened; that the Gasette'S private
detective has not discovered the true
inwardness of the Post-of1ice robbery
yet; that there is a political "old
woman" who will "boss" the Govern
ment racket tomorrow ; that every
voter should see that the names of
Carter and Warehouse are on his
ticket before it is voted; that nothing
alleged against previous Administrations
can be logically used to shield this
thieving Gibson ring; that whenever
Government officials do wrong they
should be sentenced to travel over the
Honolulu sidewalks with their eyes
shut; that the Chinese residents will be
as busy as the politicians to-day, pre-
pairing for tomorrow; that the tax
payers and planters are against the
Gibson Administration; that the Gibson
Administration was the first to intro
duce Chinese labor as Government
measure; that the fools will not all dis
appear until after election; and that the
last man to jump over the political
fence will be old man Palaver.

The Extradition Case.

SUPREME COURT, IN cHAMBERs--JU
C. j., PRESIDING.
Court opened at I o'clo
His Excellency the Attorney Cen
eral placed in evidence the Requisition
of George Stoneman, Governor of Cal
ifornia, "To His Royal Highness, the
King of the Hawaiian Islends," that
John w. Mccarthy be apprehended
and delivered to Joseph Bee, and the
indictment, bench warrant, warrant
and exemplifcation of record, on
which said requisition is founded; and
asked that the said papers be taken as
evidence of the criminality of the de-
PENDANT.
Mr.. Whiting objected to the evil
dence, both as to its effect and as to
its admissibiliy.
The Attorney General asked to be
sworn to prove the laws of California
and to testify to the regularity of the
steps taken as set forth in the docu-
ments produced. Leave being granted,
His Excellency testified that he had
practised law in the State of California
nineteen years, and read from the Pc
nal Code of California, to show the
functions of grand juries, and steps re-
CURED to be taken when persons are
charged with offences.
Joseph Bee sworn: reside in the
city of San Francisco. am a police
officer ]. w. Mccarthy is the same
person who was clerk of the Supreme
Court of California in February, 1885.
He is the same person who is named
in the Indictment and other papers
brought by me from California.
MIR. Whiting commended that under
the laws Of this Kingdom, the papers
before the court are inadmissible and
are not evidence; that the evidence sub
mitted must be in accordance with the
laws of this Kingdom; and also read
the provisions of the Hawaiian laws
applying to the evidence required for
the commitment of the accused.
His EXcellency the Attorney Cen
eral responded to the pleas presented
by the counsel for the defense. After
two hours of able pleadings in which
the learned counsel on both sides piled
laws on top of laws, precedents on top
of precedents, and authorities on top OF
authorities, Thursday afternoon at one
o'clock was appointed, at which time
the decision of the Court will be given.

The Latest American Invention.
THE VICTORY OFF ELEGTRTCxTY.

Since Electricity has been applied for light
ing purposes, all efforts Of inventors have
been directed 10 construct lamp for general
domestic use. The reason why this problem
has till now not been solved, is that none Of
the inventors could rid themselves of the idea
of gas lighting, and that all have adhered to
the system of producing the Electricity in
some central place, or by large machinery, in
stead of first laying down the principle that
Lamp which should ever become generally
useful and popular, must be portable, like an
Oil Lamp, and contain the generator Of Elec-
tricity in itself, l. e., in the foot Of the Lamp
The Norman Electric Light Company has
at last succeeded in completely realizing this
ideal Of Electric Lighting, and there is no
doubt that this most important invention will
bring about complete revolution in all
branches Of lighting.
Our Electric Lamp needs neither Machin-
cry, Conductors, nor any expensive outlay
and is neither complicated nor disagreeable in
manipulation all that is necessary is to refill
it every four or five days with acid. The cost
Of lighting will be as cheap as gas II cents
per hour), and il has before the latter the i'm
mense advantage OF neither producing heat,
smoke nor carbonic acid, owing to which the
air is not inquired, and remains al the same
degree of temperature. 1t is further abso-
lutely inodorous, and does not need to be
kindled by match, or otherwise, but simply
by turning the key thus avoiding all danger
of fire, explosion or suhocaton, as in the case
Of gas, If the key is left open and it must be
conceded that this advantage alone is nvalu-
able. 1t is further preferable to any known
kind of lighting for the following reasons;
~ Its manipulation is so simple that any
child can keep it in order.
(2.l That the Lamp is portable, and can be
removed like any Oil Lamp, from one place
to another.
(Sl That it neither requires the disagree
able fixing Of the wick, or the cleaning OF the
cylinder, as in the case of Oil Lamps.
(4) That the light produced is a soft and
most steady one that it never hckers, and
the flame, though being equal in power Of
lighting to gas, can be regulated to any de-
gree.
81 That every danger of fire is absolutely
excluded, as the light will extinguish immedi-
ately, il by any accident the glass surrounding
the burner should be broken.
| (6.) That il will burn, even in the strongest
wind, completely unaffected, thus being in
valuable for illuminations, lighting of gardens,
corridors, etc,
This Lamp is constructed for the present..in
three different sizes:
