Bold Sneak Thieves.

Some time last Thursday night, some
unknown person or persons entered the
cottage occupied by Captain Haley and
his family, in the Hotel grounds, and
carried away all the wearing apparel
belonging to the Captain. On arising
yesterday morning, Captain Haley
started to dress himself, when looking
around he could not find the clothes
he had laid on chair the night before,
and thinking somebody had put them
in a wardrobe which stands in the hall,
he went to the wardrobe, opened the
door, when to his establishment, all his
clothes were gone. The door of the
cottage was left open by Captain Haley,
to admit one of the hotel employees,
who was to wake him early, as he was
going to Waialua early in the morning
The matter was Immediately put into
the hands of the police, who are work
ing up the case. Among other things
taken was set of fine gold sleeve but
tons and set of studs Nothing fur
ther could be learned from the police
or at the hotel, than the above, as the
police are trying to hush the matter up
until the thief is caught.
The residence of c. w. Hart, on the
corner of Punchbowl and Beretania
streets was also entered the same night,
and quantity of clothing carried away.
The thief or thieves, whoever they are,
seem to have particular taste for wear
ing apperal.

When you want "a cigar what is a
cigar" take a walk up or down Fort
street. When you come to fine drug
store with a big soda fountain behind
a big plate glass window, in which
turns a patent glass washer, that's
HOLSTERS store. To make success
of your determination to get "a cigar
what is cigar" walk directly past the
big soda fountain and corral one OF
the Manila cigars, which Mr.. Parmlee
has the secret of getting hold Of and
and you can walk out and make the
street fragrant, in spite of the Govern
ment's neglect.

The Latest American Invention.
THE VICTORY OF ELECTRICITY

Since Electricity has been applied for light
ing purposes, all efforts of inventors have
been directed to 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, i. 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 a 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 10 refill
it every four or five days with acid The cost
Of lighting will be as cheap as gas "a cents
per hour) and il has before the latter the inn
mense advantage of neither producing heat,
smoke nor carbonic acid owing to which the
air is moi inquired, and remains at the same
degree Of temperature. 1t is further abso-
luey inodorous, and does not need to be
kndled by match, or otherwise, but simply
by turning the key, thus avoiding all danger
of fire, explosion or suffocation, as in the case
OF gas, if the key is left open and il must be
conceded that this advantage alone IS invalu-
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 il in order.

Yesterday morning native drayman
was seen working his way down Nuu-
anu street toward the wharf with load
of sixteen bales of native hay, loosely
piled upon his truck, and tied with a
very slack rope. The top bales leaned
threateningly toward EVA and the ma
tive could only keep them on by driving
very slowly and keeping two wheels on
the Waikiki side of the street in the
gutter, to concordance the tipping.
Every once in while he would get
down and push the top bales of hay
back within the center of gravity, and
so continued throughout the length Of
the street, greatly to the annoyance Of
other vehicles. Moral: This shows
that if people and firms owning drays
would hire competent men as teamsters,
who could properly load and transport
through our narrow streets such bulky
merchandise the public would gain in
convenience and run less risk of &C
cidents.
