ROBBED OF 50, 900.

News of the robbery of the treasurer
of the town of Manitowoc Rapids was
received in this city yesterday morning.
AS near as could be learned the facts in
the case are as follows: Adolph Kugler
resides in the village of Manitowoc Rap
ids and in his capacity as town treasurer
collected about S4O0 yesterday which,
together with aboat 81, 800 previously
collected, he placed in the drawer of
bureau in his sleeping apartment when
he retired on the night of Tuesday
Early the following morning the loss of
the money was discovered. Investiga-
ton showed that entrance to the house
had been effected through window in
the rear part and that the thief had made
his way to the room occupied by Mr..
Kugler, had taken the key to the drawer
from his vest pocket, unlocked the draw
er, taken the money and escaped with
out disturbing any Of the inmates of the
house. The money comprised about
$50 in silver, S400 in gold and the bal
ance in currency. No clue was left which
would point to the thief's identity, and
there seems to be no prospect of the
money being recovered. All of the
stolen money belonged to the county. it
being the amount received for taxes, and
the loss will of course fall upon Mr.. Kug-
Ter or his bondsmen. The state tax,
amounting to several hundred dollars,
had been paid over by him short time
previously. Mr.. Kugler has held the
Office of treasurer of the town for
number of years.

by purifying, renewing, and invigorating

through debility, the action of the kidneys

Drill and Luau.

Yesterday the Royal Household
Guards were reviewed in the Palace
grounds by His Majesty the King, the
President and members OF the Legisla-
tive Assembly being present by invita-
ton. The troops were under the com
mand of Captain Kahalewai, and exc
cuted the various evolutions with preci
sion and skill. Great interest was taken
in the battery of rihed brass guns pro-
cured by the King through the favor
of the Emperor Francis Joseph of Aus
tria. These field pieces are certainly
marvels OF workmanship Major A. B.
Hayley took command of the artillery
and put battery through marching and
firing drill. The ground was unsuitable,
but the drill was excellent.
An adjournment was then made to
the saluting battery, near kakaako,
where target practice was kept up for a
considerable time. 1t was exceedingly
difficult TO judge the distance, owing to
the flags being fixed outside the reef, but
despite the drawback occasioned by
the swell and break intervening,
very fair shooting as whole
was made. At the artillery prac-
tice there we're present several promi-
nent personages, among them His Maj
esty the King, His Excellency Governor
Dominis, Hon. A. S. CleghOrn, His EN-
cellency the Minister of Finance, His
EXcellency the Attorney General, His
Excellency Paul Kanoa, Governor of
Kauai; Hon. Samuel Parker, Colonel
Claus Spreckels, Captain Waterbury,
Z. S. A, etc. Major A. B. Hayley
had command of the battery during
target practice. His Majesty the King
took great interest in the proceedings.
The distinguished visitors having
withdrawn from the battery, the troops
marched back to their quarters at the
Royal Hawaiian Barracks, where a
grand luau had been provided by the
Household troops for the King and other
guests The tables were tastefully deco
rated and a sumptuous repast was
spread, the Hon. Samuel Parker and
His Excellency Mr.. Kapena sitting
respectively upon the Kings right
and left hand. After doing JUS
ti,-e to, the viands saverai toaatl
were proposed by His Majesty
and others, and duly responded to. The
usual loyal toast, including the King,
| Queen and other members of the Reign
/ ing Family, were proposed and drunk
after which His Majesty called attention
to the condition Of the military. The
bad state Of the floors in the barrack
buildings attracted general attention,
and the necessity for the expenditure OF
money in repairs was freely admitted.
| Several general toasts were proposed, in
Guiding "the press" coupled with the
name of the editor of the ADVERTISER,
to which a suitable reply was made.
The Royal Hawaiian Band was in at
| tendance. Several gentlemen were
| guests of the King at lunch.

Grand Success.

The new method OF making Poi out OF
Taro Flour has reduced the time from
pc hours to only l hour. The old
method of cooking it in bag has been
discarded There is no need of building
a fire specially for the purpose, but it can
be cooked at the same time that the
ordinary meal is being prepared.
Take an agate iron or porcelain lined
saucepan, and pour into it one part Of Tarc
Flour to two parts of water. Mix well and
be sure there are no Jumps. Place the
saucepan over good fire and stir the -four
and water with wooden spoon or stick
until it becomes thick, which will take from
three to five minutes, according to heat
employed. After it is thick occasional
thorough stirring is necessary, adding a
little warm water from tilue to time to pre-
vent its getting too thick. Let it simmer
for nearly an hour, and be almost as stiff as
paiai-that L., qnite thick. Put it into a
calabash OF large bowl, and let it stand
from two to three days, when it will become
nice and tart.
Should the Poi show tendency to be
come clOggy or lumpy, it can easily be
remedied by smoothing down with q potato
masher or wooden spoon.
Persons preferriug sweet Poi Will hnd that
by cooking the flour according to the above
instructions while preparing their evening
meal and letting it stand over night, it will
be in proper condition for use on the follow
ing morning.
