the way of new business houses is the we'll
known firm of Henry Norman & Co. This
enterprsing firm has large store in Chi
cago. and one on Seventh and
RosabeI streets, and, seeing the
West ST. Paul, resolved to locate here, and
on Saturday evening threw open their
doors for the inspection of the public, on
the corner of Dakota and Chicago avenues.
They have a Sde-room 50x1O0 feet. and
carry in stock fresh, full line of clothing,
gents furnishing goods underwear. boots
and shoes, etc. This firm being old In the
business and acquainted with the wants of
the people, propose to give West-siders what
they have long felt the need ola place
where they can go and do trading where a
| full line of the finest goods may be found
| and where prices are as reasonable as in
| any part of the city. They intend to show
to the people that they do not have to 90 to
the East side to transact business, and this
| end will be the object of their labors.
Among the new features of this wide
| awake firm is, that to every p1r-
chaser of $40 worth of goods, they pre-
sent large 2Sx42 oil painting, v hich in
itself is quite an inducement to step in and
examine the stock. The Messrs. Norman
desire it to be known that they have come
to the West side to stay, and by patient
and untiring efforts and faculty which
they possess of always keeping in stock
everything in their line, at prices within
the reach of all. they propose to gain the
confidence of the people, and by square
dealing and desire for small profits only
and quick sales, will undoubtedly accom-

| they have in the result of their efforts to
please, this firm wishes it known that if a
purchaser should find, after examination at
home, that any article bought at their
store is not as represented they will most
cheerfully take it back and refund
the money. They own their own building,
pay no rent, and consequently are not
forced to charge high price for their
goods. Every article is marked in plain
figures, so that the smallest child may be

TWO SPECIAL FEATURES.

There are two special features to
commend the Honolulu Library
and Reading Room Association to
the public notice and favor. First,
its unsectarian character. and
second, the easy condition of men,
bership. 1t was the object of the
original promoters and organizers
of this institution to make its
benefits as general as possible.
The same policy has been pursued
by all succeeding managements.
The Association is purely unsecta-
rian. Among its members are per-
sons of every shade of belief. An
individual wishing to become q
member has not to be proposed,
balloted for, run the risk of being
black-balled, etc. There is no
formality of the kind to be sub
mitted to. All that he has to do is
to present himself any time during
the hours the Library is open, sign
the roll, and pay three months fee
(S1.50); and he forthwith becomes
a member, with all the rights and
privileges appertalning thereto.

THE LATE REV. LORENZO LYONS.

The Kinau brought letters yester-
day, telling of the death and burial
of Rev. Lorenzo Lyons, at Waimea,
Hawaii. He was born at Coleraine,
Mass, April Is, 1907, graduated at
Union College in 1927, and from
Auburn Theological Seminary, 1881.
He came to the Islands on the
Averick, Captain Chadwick, with
Rev. Messrs. Alexander, Arm
strong, Emerson, Forbes, Hitch
cock, Lyman and Spaulding. He
was stationed at Waimea, July 1G,
1882, and has resided there till his
death on Wednesday last, Oct. 6,
at 5:20r. NJ. The funeral services
were held on Friday and were con-
Quoted by the neighboring ministers,
Rev. a. Osborn, from Kohala, Rev.
c. r. Nugent, from Honokaa, and
the Hawaiian pastors, Rev. Messrs.
Kekuewa, Luhiau, Kalaiwaa and
Kalawc. He was buried in corner
of the home lot. The coffin was
draped in Hawaiian flag, which
His Majesty the King had pre-
viously sent him, having heard of
his expressed desire to be buried
therein.
Father Lyons will be had in
loving remembrance as the psalmist
for the Hawaiian churches. Up to
the time of his last illness, it had
been his custom to translate one
hymn every week. Several editions
have been published of the "Himeni
Hawaii" two each of the "Lei
Alii," "Hoku 40 Mani" "Himeni
Euanelio." The last named is a
translation of some of the "Moody
and Sankey Hymns" These have
been published in three separate
parts, containing GO hymns each,
though now only for sale bound in
one volume. They gave most efli-
cient help during the revival meet
ings in 1892. The two Sunday
School song books, named above,
are in constant and popular use in
the Hawaiian Evangelical Churches
to-day. Many original hymns have
been published also, and poetcal
translations for use in the reading
books of the public schools.
Father Lyons was man of loving
nature, of sanity simplicity of char
acter, an indefatigable worker, early
and late, walking to visit the various
churches he had organized in Waipio
Valley and Hamakua, as well as on
the seashore about Kawaihae. Thirty
years ago he was very active in
building houses of worship for the
various Hawaiian communities, and
the church at Waimea, which he
named Imiloa, is an architectural
embodiment of his reverent and
beauty-loving thoughts. His name
is household word in Hawaiian
homes, and articles from his pen in
the Hawaiian newspapers had great
influence over many minds. En-
feebled by the infirmities of age, his
spiritual life was strong, patient,
CHEEKY to the last. And now amid
the choir invisible with open face he
beholds the glory of his Lord.

" SOMETHING TO READ7"

EDITOR BULLETIN The first pub
lished catalogue of the Honolulu
Library Association has leen issued
and is-as a whole-a satisfactory
work. No one who has not under
taken to compile matter Of the kind
contained in this volume can form
an adequate conception of the labor
involved in its preparation, and the
thanks of the members of the Asso-
citation are due to the committee
who had the matter in charge.
Reference is made in the preface
to the catalogue to those who come
to Library with vague request
for something to read," and this
class of patrons is designated as
''too numerous. May inquire
why and how "too numerous!"
Are there too many readers who do
not know what to read? or is the
number of those who read books
simply to occupy their spare time
without any idea of improving their
minds too numerous! In either
case the librarian who deals with
them, in my opinion, enjoys an
cnviable position for, in complying
with the request for "something to
read," it is in his or her power to
form the minds and govern the
tastes of many, especially the
young. There can he no higher
privilege than this. Teachers, the
world over, are engaged in just this
sort of work, but with this differ
ence: they are too often obliged to
hammer knowledge into the brains
of their unwilling pupils, and mould
their minds against their wills, while
the librarian who is asked for
something to read" has only to
place the book he or she may think
best into the hands of the applicant
and leave it to do its work.
1t seems to me, that it must be a
great deal more satisfactory to the
custodian Of such an institution as
the Honolulu Library 10 be con-
suited in regard to what is to be
read, than it is to be asked for
some of the trash of which, in com
mon with every other circulating
library ours has quite enough, The
official who is applied to for snch
works must often feel regret at
knowing that hours will be wasted
in reading of people whose lives and
conversations are utterly aimless
and inconsequential when not vicious
or immoral, and of scenes and Incl
dents either absurdly STACEY or
ridiculously common place.

lie moved the ayes and noes be
called.
If the Assembly had not gone
mad in the matter of spending
money, there would have been no
necessity for an increase in the
percentage of taxation.
Minister Dare said the question of
taxation was not before the house.
The question was simply whether
section of this act shall be made to
conform to another law already
passed and signed by His Majesty.
Rep. Thurston said if His Ma
iesty had signed the bill, the house
had not been informed of it.

A young person-say a young
fcmale-apply, at the Library for
something to read"
In such case il must be pleas
ure to the librarian to recommend
if fiction is preferred-the writings
of distinguished authors, and to aid
in cultivatlng taste for their stand
ard works: to provide the mind of
the young reader with healthy food,
and strengthen it against the debili-
tating influence of stories of the
strife of "'rhe Twin Brides or the
Secret of his Flight" Dyna-
mited Ma-in-law or Peace at Tart"
sensational novels which are sure
to be met with at some time or
other.
Again: there are those who will
get the impression that the writer
means that those who come to the
library with vague request for
something to read are "too
numerous" because they are bores.
They will think that they are giving
too much trouble to the librarian,
asking too much of that official ;
that what they should do is simply
to bring back the book already read
and ask for another by title and
number. Such, of course, are mis-
taken, and such an inference, it
will be rightly said, will only be
drawn by the super-sensitive or cup
tious patrons of the library. True :
but all the same they are entitled
to consideration, and it is for their
sakes that the question is asked
"Why and how too numerous!' -

First--Tbe advocates of license
say, License opium and stop SNUG
Cling" Will it do so? No, the licensee
must pay a high price for the privilege
and must therefore charge high
price for his poison. The moment
the price reaches a point that offers
profit to the smuggler, smuggling
will go ON. The law creates legiti-
mate demand where none now exists;
hence the consumption will increase.
Second-lt will destroy all disci-
pline on the plantations and result
in much loss of time to the employer
and employee. The law as it now
stands prohibiting its use, is the
only means of preventing chaos
among the thousands of Chinese and
Japanese.
Third--1t will, if passed, violate
an implied covenant with Japan,
which country has wisely excluded
the drug. 1t would be wrong to
bring the subjects of His l. M. the
Mikado of Japan TO Hawaii and ruin
them morally and physically. 1t is
as wrong to them as to the rising
generation of Hawaiians. 1t would
be wrong TO humanity and u last
ing injury to all Hawaii's subjects.
Fourth-The effects of opium are
worse than the effects of any other
stilnulant known.
Go into the criminal courts of San
Francisco and look upon the young
men and women there-seven-ten,hs
of whom have been brought to crime
through smoking opium. So strong
is the hold of opium upon its vota-
ries that they live only to crafty
their love of it. They will steal
for the wherewithal to buy it. They
will commit any crime-indifferent
to consequences-so long as the
poisonous drug can he procured,
that in its deadly embrace they may
see the bewitching, but false, visions
that lure them on.
The drunkard will at times, when
the fumes of alcohol are blown
away, wash and dry himself and
walk erect before his fellow-man
and try TO regain their respect, but
the opium smoker, never. His
course is ever downward, down,
down, euntil the lowest level of hui
man degradation is reached. The
opium smoker will face his fellow
man, clad in rags, covered with
vermine and never blush. He cares
not what the world thinks of him, he
crawls back to his den and in the
fumes of opium smoke, dreams plea
SAINT dreams.
| appeal to you members, both
native and foreign to kill this bill,
for the sake of your fellow-man. Do
not vote to fasten so great n curse
upon your brothers, curse that
will hang heavy upon them-and
bring them down to shame, disgrace,
penuary and want, and make exis-
tance a misery from which they will
never be relieved until covered by
their mother earth.
Rep. Thurston said there is law
now in force prohibiting the importa-
tion of opium. 1t seemed to him
that the introducer of this bill
should state to the house some of
his reasons Tor the proposed change.
Rep. Kaunamano had no one
reason, but many reasons. Opium
had been generally used among
native Hawaiians as far back as
1886. The Atlorney-General had
spoken of its evil effects from
theory. He (the speaker) had used
opium himself and could speak from
experience after giving it fair trial.
