also Secretary of the Provincial
Council of the Province of Auck-
land. In the latter position he was
executive officer of the Provincial
Government, and his works in that
capacity are seen to-day in wharves
at the city of Auckland, and wharves
and many public Improvement on
the Thames Goldfelds in that pro-
vince, the duty of whose opening
devolved on him. But Mr.. Crcigh-
tons career in New Zealand was
much more journalistical than poll
tical. Following is what the Auck-
land BEL, of July 2S, 1886, says of
him -
Many old coionlsts in New Zea-
land will be pleased to see that Mr..
Robert j. Creighton has been an
nounced as the Minister of Foreign
Affairs in the Court of the King of
the Hawaiian Islands. Mr.. Creigh-
ton was long known in New Zealand
rs one of the ablest and best writer's
ever connected with journalism in
the colony, and at the same time the
most genial of men, and though the
Kingdom of Hawaii is but u small
one, and its foreign relations cannot
he at present of a very intricate
kind, still the position occupied by
Mr.. Creighton is an interesting one,
and we venture to say that it will
be filed with distinction and success.
AS editor of the Duty Southern
Gross, and part proprietor of that
journal during its palmiest days,
subsequently as editor of the Neac
Zealond Herald, and then the
founder and editor of the Otogo
Gm rdian, Mr.. Creighton, during
the whole time of his residence in
New Zealand, was in the very fore
front of journalism, while his sound
information on every question OF
public interest, united with an incl
sive and forcible style of writing,
enabled him to maintain his pre-
eminence. For ten or twelve years
subsequent to leaving New Zealand
Mr. Creighton was at San Francisco,
welding the pen of successful jOurn-
aism, and at the same time acting
as political agent for the Govern
ment of New Zealand in the United
States, where his services not merely
in connection with postal and other
public questions. but with acclima-
tization in New Zealand were of
eminent advantage to the colony,
and where he always gave a cordial
welcome and invaluable aid to any
colonist passing through the city of
the Golden Gate. Since then Mr..
Creighton has removed to Honolulu,
founding a journal there, and, as
might have been anticipated by
everyone familiar with his former
career, he has made his presence
felt, and has now attained one of
the highest distinctions that inter-
esting little kingdom can give. AS
former member of our Provincial
Government at Auckland and q
member of the House of Represen-
tatives of New Zealand, Mr.. Creigh-
ton brings experience as well as
ability to assist him in administra-
ton, and hosts of old New Zealand
friends will watch with interest and
anticipations of much success, the
new and honorable career on which
he has entered.

HAWAII FOR THE HAWAliANS.

We Sdlo caluluay. lllut Nllillli
proper limitations, we fully endorse
the sentiment SHawaii for the Ha-
waiians." SO we do. The aborigi-
nal Hawaiian has the claim of prior
right based on prior possession.
This is claim, right which should
be respected. so it has been, and
so it is. The foreigner did not
come here, has not come here, seek
ing to dislodge and displace the
natives. He has rather sought
alliance and atliliation with him.
But conceding to the native the
right of prior possession is not con-
ceding his superiority of claim, when
once he has, of his own free-will.
admitted the foreigner to an equal
ity of right.
But we find ourselves wandering
from the point. 1t is more particu-
larly in the matter of government in
its various branches that the cry of
"Hawaii for the Hawaiians' is
being sounded. and it was with this
aspect of the question in view that
we started out. Well, Hawaii has
voluntarily disavowed its ancient
forms and methods, and by the adj
vice and assistance of white foreigners
adopted the white foreigners form
of government. Because Hawaii of
the Hawaiian people have accepted
and adopted the foreigners form or
government. should they also accept
him as the governing power or
agent! No, not necessarily. If the
Hawaiians have the necessary
knowledge and ability for the proper
and efficient carrying out of the
form of government which they have
accepted, and which they cannot
now possibly discard, it should be
placed on their shoulders and in
their hands. Moreover, if they are
unable to bear the entire burden,
but are competent to carry a part,
they should take the part they are
equal to. That is, if incompetent
for some official positions, but com
petent for others, they should be en-
trusted with those for which they
are competent. For all positions
in the public service that they are
qualified they should have the pre-
ference over all others. Thus far
we believe in "Hawai for the Ha-
waiians," but not farther.
TO give man office in the gov
ernment or under the government,
simply because he is Hawaiian, with
out regard to competence, or to
create offices merely for the sake of
supplying Hawaiians with positions
to live at their country's expense, is
in either case going to foolish ex-
treme, which no sensible man car
endorse. BY the first the efficiency
of the public service Is impaired
and the people suffer; by th'
second the peoples money is put t.
a misuse, which benefits nobody bu
its recipients. Such an application
of "Hawaii for the Hawaiians" ha
a direct tendency to bring shame
upon Hawaii, and ultimately to di
vest her of independence.

Gospel Mission.

Yesterday morning very interesting SER
vice took place at the Mission, when Rev
Mr.. Row preached very impressive SER
mon in the sign language to number Of
deaf mutes. In the afternoon, Mrs. S. F.
Pearson addressed the people, taking hel
text from Luke xii, 80: 'Fear not, little
flock, for it is your Fathers good pleasure
to give you the kingdom" She spoke very
encouraging words to the workers of the
Mission, and pictured Christ as their perfect
pattern. Mrs. Pearson also conducted the
gospel services in the evening, which CON-
menced with a service of song, led by Mr..
Bent and Miss Evangeline Pearson, with
cornets, f. Hanscom on the trombone, and
Prof. j. E. Smith on the organ. This was
followed by very spirited testimony meot-
ing, and very earnest address by the leader.
A very good work is being accomplished by
the Mission, and much interest is felt in the
meetings.

Accidents.

Mr.. George F. MCGOWAN, employed in C.
+. Rounds grocery store ON Oxford street,
accidentally inflicted severe wound upon
himself the other day. He was cutting meat,
when the knife slipped and stabbed him in
the groin, making deep cut. The wound
bled quite freely, and DR.. Way was called.
1t required several stitches to close the cash.
Saturday morning Mr.. Alex. Bell started to
60 down into the cellar. He took no light.
A pail had been left on the stairs, and his
foot struck against it, precipitating him to
the cellar floor. He was very badly bruised.
Saturday evening he was reported as some
what better, although very sore from his in
juries.
Eddie McKenney, aged 3 years, was run
over by team in Dunphy's lane Saturday
morning, and his foot was badly injured.

Willis c. s. C.

The Willis Chautauqua Circle met Thurs
day evening with Mrs. Edward Cheney, and
very interesting programme was presented.
The first piece after the opening exercises Of
song and roll-call, was character sketch of
Louis Agassiz, by Miss Kincaid. 1t was a
concise, well written account of the great
naturalist. Mrs. Fernald's paper on "a
Business Education for Girls" was very in
teresting for its originality and the sound
common sense view taken of the subject.
She does not at all favor the idea advanced
by so many of marrying off, the girls to
get them out of the way. A piano duet by
Miss Elva Pettengill and Mrs Cheney fol-
lowed. Mr.. Cheney followed with a selec-
tion from David Copperfeld. Miss Helene
Clark recited the little poem called ''The
Petrified Fern" in manner that charmed
all.
The lesson, as given through questions pre-
viously prepared is becoming feature of
the programmes which is expected to result
in much benefit to ALL
The circle is very prosperous; its member
ship is increasing, and all arc enthusiastic
and ready for work.

The Storm.

The harbor was crowded with vessels of
all sorts and sizes yesterday waiting for the
clearing up of the storm, and the heavy rain
OF Saturday night and Sunday morning had
swept the streets clean. No disasters upon
the water are reported, few vessels being out
along the coast where they would be exposed
to the storm and the rain during the greater
part of its continuance being accompanied
by little wind. The New York steamer
Eleanora left her wharf for New York at q
o'clock in the afternoon.
At the Signal Service office the obserya-
tions show that from early morning Friday
to yesterday afternoon the rain fall was 5.34
inches. The rain has fallen on rising as
well as falling barometer, making it difficult
to predict what changes in the weather
might be expected. The cautionary signal

track from Congress street up and through
Neal street to Spring street, to junction
there with the Spring street terminus. Such
plan, If carried out, will give continuous

Natures laws of supply and demand re.

Natures laws of supply and demand re-
quire the constant presence of the phos-
pilates in the human system. As the phos
pilates are consumed with every effort, so are
they an absolute necessity to the health and
well-being of the human organization. They
are contained in every fibre, tissue, nerve
and muscle of the body. Psychologists
teach us that with an abundant supply of
phosphates in the system, good health is the
rule, but without that supply disease is inev
liable. How important, then, it becomes to
exercise forethought and care in the selec-
tion of our food, in order to secure for the
system that supply Of the necessary phos-
pilates which it daily requires.
Some years ago, Prof Horsford invented
process whereby these phosphates were in
troduced into the food of everyday life in
the form of baking powder and it is a GU
rious fact that there is no other process TO-
dy that adds anything Of nutritious value
to baking powder. Cream Of Tartar and
alum are used to a large extent for baking
powders, but they have no value except as
merely raising" agents, and many physi-
clans consider them as decidenly Injurious.
The only phosphate powder made, as far as
we know, is Horsford's Bread Preparation.
1t is the popular and well known invention
OF Prof. Horsford, of Cambridge, and is
without doubt the only powder in the world
that adds nutritive qualities to the bread. Ii
is most emphatically endorsed by our first
scientific men as the most wholesome bread
raising that can be used.
Prof. Horsford's Bread Preparation is for
sale by all dealers, and every package is
warranted.
