The New Laundry.

This new institution is now receiving
the finishing touches. 1t is situated on
the reef, back of Oahu Prison The
location of the new laundry is good
one, and affords every advantage need
ed by such an enterprise. The laundry
is situated away from the dust and dirt
Of the city; the buildings and entire
works are new, and the best of native
and white labor will be employed in
running the laundry. The washing will
all be done by machine motion, and
the evil of pounding the clothes, as
usually employed in Honolulu, will not
be necessary SeamstresSes will be
employed in the laundry to repair
clothes, and all buttons will be sewed
on before the washing is sent home;
fannels and all other goods of shrink
able nature will be washed by them
selves under a special process; no
chemicals whatever will be used in the
laundry, and pure tallow soap, manu-
featured here, without chemical color
ing, will be used, so that the clothes
will not be worn out in half dozen
washings, as is generally the result after
employing Chinese laundrymen.
Mr.. T. J. Mclaughlin is the man
ager of the new Hawaiian industry and
it was at his invitation that represent
alive of the PRESS called at the works
last Saturday morning, before the gen
eral public began to arrive, and was
shown the convenient and practical ar
rangements, almost completed, fol
making soiled clothes new again. The
main building, which is large and com
modius. is painted white, with blue
trimmings, and is covered with gal
vanized-iron roof The room of the
main building is well economical, and
is divided into an office, sorting room,
a washing room, a drying room, an
ironing room, a store and delivery
room, and the engine room. These
rooms vary in size from the office,
which is IoxI2 feet, to the ironing
room, which is 2ox35 feet. The clothes
are washed in large cylinder, divided
into corrugated compartments, which
are heated by steam, let in at the bot
tom of the cylinder. A stream of cold
water is also let in at the top of the
cylinder when necessary, ard the suds
is formed out of pure soap by revolving
the cylinder. From the cylinder the
clothes are dried in centrifugal and
are then placed upon sliding racks in
the drying room. All plain cloths are
then ironed by machinery near the dry
ing room, and the others are sent tc
the ironing room where both hand
labor and polishing machines are EN-
ployed After the clothes leave the iron
ing room they are tied up in packages
and placed upon shelves in the delivery
room until the drivers of the laundry
wagons call for them according tc
agreements with customers. Many PEG
pie inspected the new laundry during
Saturday afternoon; Mr.. Henry Hart
was on hand with his celebrated ice
cream and cake, and the genial man
ager, Mr.. Mclaughlin, had stationed at
tendants at convenient distance who
held pieces Of twisted wirein their hands
which they used whenever anybody
winked at them. The exhibition was ii
every way a success and every body
went home vowing it was the best thing
ever started in Honolulu.

They say: That there we're some
apt local hits about sugar at the show
last Saturday night; that the Tea
landia brought an important letter
about political affairs in Hawaii that
it will be two months before there is
any definite news about the fate of the
Reciprocity Treaty; that the weather
was as blustery as a local politician
yesterday that the price of sugar still
remains unchanged, with dull mar
ket, affected by the strikes in the
United States; that the sugar men
who are constantly shipping Hawaiian
sugar East from San Francisco just at
the present time are using very poor
policy; that the Kings Lieutenant
who died short time ago was the vic
tim of native superstition; that the
Benedicts did not expect the result Of
the score at the match last Saturday !;
that the new steam laundry was a
pleasant surprise to everybody Satur-
day afternoon that the hackmen did
not all keep the engagements they
made for the show the other night (;
that it took five policemen to make
two arrests the other night that pre-
sentation of five gold watches would
now be in order that the Bulletin can
easily answer its question, "Will natur
al gas last 2? by leaving its contempor-
aries out and citing from its own col
umns; that the rumor of fresh news
paper changes proves to be unfounded;
that the Oahu College has closed a
most successful term that the enter
prise of Mr.. c. K. Miller is highly APP
preciated on the other Islands; that
the bones of Kamehameha l have late
ly been found and privately transferred
to Honolulu that the new laundry is
patronizing home labor, and therefore
ought to be patronized by the entire
foreign population; that the laundry
will be able to take all work offered by
next week; that the Government Of
ficials are all busy getting ready for a
good showing at the next Legislature
that there was a gay horseback party
rode through town last Saturday; that
the people at KakaakO Hospital will
all take regular baths since the new
bath tubs have been put in; that the
King will be represented in the next
Legislature by sub rosa Cabinet and
that people will be obliged to wait
two years more before they are repre-
sented at all.

About fifty young ladies and gentle
men, members of the Young Peoples
Christian Temperance Union, assem-
bled for the last time on Saturday
evening, at the residence of Mrs
Southwick, and had most enjoyable
time. During the evening the society
had the pleasure of listening to a few
stirring and eloquent words from Mr.
VIM. Noble, of London, who, even
though he has the faculty of reaching
the grown people by thousands, has
also the happy knack, which is still
more of gift, of entertaining and in
structing younger folks. Just before
the close of the sociable Master Fred
Hammer, one of Honolulu's promis
ing boys, stepped quietly forward and
in beautiful and touching little
speech, expressed his thanks to Mrs.
Southwick in behalf of himself and
the Union for the interest she has man
ifested in their welfare and pleasure
for nearly three years, expressing his
firm determination to remain true to
his pledge, discourage the use of in
toxicating liquors and tobacco, assur-
ing Mrs Southwick that as she went
forth from them, she would always
hold warm place in their hearts, as
he hoped the Union would in hers.
He then presented her (his own gift
with a handsome collar-button and
bangle. Mrs. Southwick, although
much taken with surprise, responded
in her usual impressive manner, ex-
pressing her thanks, and closing with
an earnest appeal to the members Of
the Union to be true to the principles
of right they advocated.

DEAR SIR; We have just returned from a
trip to the Volcano of Kilauea per the w.
G. Hail." via Punaluu and have much pleas
ure in bearing testimony to the admirable
manner in which the whole arrangements are
conducted with view to the comfort and con-
venience OF tourists. The hotel accomoda-
tons and meals supplied by Mr. Lee of Puma
luu il would not be easy to surpass anywhere
And at the halfway House really hrst-class

the most comfortable route by which to visit
the Volcano.

Mr.. Fred. w. Mills gave his first
performance, since his return from Ha-
wall, last Saturday evening to very
fair audience The programme pre-
sented was mostly new, and during the
first halt Mr.. F. A. Railway sang two
ballads, with pleasing effect. Mr. Mills
opened the evening with a repetition
of "Young Scapegrace at his Sisters
Wedding" after which "Mr. Timid"
was introduced on skates. Mr.. Mills
then went through the infantry drill as
"Mr. Papandcandle," after which he
presented two new characters, viz :
"Mr. L. Moriarity Murther," dude
policeman Of Sydney, who won ladies'
hearts with his winning ways" The
character of "Mr. l.. Moriarity Muir
Their" was the best thing of the even
ing, and was a fine take off on the
dudeful representative of the corpor-
alton of Sydney. This character was
followed by "Johnny All Chow" a
''me-plenty-hy" Chinaman. The sec
and part of the programme was repe-
tition of the doings of the "Six Merry
Manikins," with new local jokes, songs
and dialogues The ventriloquism Of
Mr.. Mills was exceedingly good, al
though he was laboring under the dis
advantage of severe cold. Another
performance, with new programme

A Foxy Story.

The story In circulation that a dog
committed suicide by jumping from a
window Of the second story Of an old
Jail bsildinfi, corner Of Princess and
Second streets, is not exactly a caHard
the dog did jump and break its neck
but it is said the animal was forced to
Jump by . number Of eolored children in
the building. As canine yarn it will
do to tell but 1t Is not as good as the
story an old colored man from Brups-
wick told about fox which had robbed
his "old woman" Of all her chickens,
save and exceptin'" an old rooster
the pet and pride Of the family-ooming
night after night to carry of q hen or
pullet, until all were gone but one. To
save 1t the old woman kept the fowl
close prisoner In her room. But one
morning recently, just after breakfast
was finished, while she was sweeping
h'arth and the old man was out in the
field, she heard that rooster equall, and
rushed to the door of the room Just In
time to meet the predatory fox with the
chicken slung across his back.
She struck at the "varmint" with her
broom, and the fox ran back and took
refuge under the bed, where she heard
him crushing the bones of the luckless
rooster. The old woman was afraid to

attack the fox alone, but thought to Sc
cure the villain by lsoEing the door
while she went In search Of the old man
to aid her In dispatGhing the rObber
They armed themselves with AK and
club and gun, but when they returned to
the room the fox was gone. After de-
liberately eating the fowl he jumped
through pane Of glass in the window
and escaped, leaving only few trfts Of
fur on the jagged edges Of the broken
glass to mark his exit.

Piles are frequently preceded by Il sense of
weight in the back, lOins and lower part Of the
abdomen, causing the patient to suppose he
has some affection of the kidneys or neigh
boring organs. At times symptoms of indi-
gestiOn are present, flatulency, uncasincss of
the stomach, etc. A moisture, like perspir;I-
after getting warm, is common attendant.
