VI DEAR BROTHER:
Yours of yesterday at hand. I re-
spectfully decline your offer for the fol-
lowing reasons-First, the terms neces-
sary to characterize the present atti-
tude Of the Prohibition party in Della
ware, l shall be unwilling to use in
your presence, in as much as am your
friend and respect your sensibilities.
Second, il the event of your success in
debate the only result would be to
draw votes from the Republican party,
in which case there would be nothing
to draw to; and in the event of nv
success there will be nothing to draw
frOm-wherefore in any event the labor
would be impolitic and futile. think
my time is better employed in prOmot-
ing the success of the only real live re-
form party in the country than in vast
ing needed breath over the inconsis-
tencies of an insignificant company of
impractical theorists. You and can
talk together when we meet.
Fraternally, WILLIS.

tussle, conquered the negro and tied him
TO the floor. Luck was taken out and died
shortly afterwards from his injuries.

Ball of Engine Company No. 1.

Honolulu Engine Company No. is to
be congratulated upon making its ball
decided success. The dampness and
GOODNESS of the evening prevented the
attendance of many purchasers of tickets,
yet a large and agreeable company as
sembled at the Armory of the Honolulu
Rifles. Decorations were characteristic,
elaborate and artistic. Besides a pro-
fusion of well-arranged palm leaves.
festOons, flowers and flags, there were
fine combinations of firemen's apparatus
and implements. At the head of the
hall coils of new hose surmounted with
floral pieces made an imposing pile,
while above the wall bore crossed axes
gay with paint, also similar combinations
of FURNISHED trumpets, and hats, belts,
ETC., effectively displayed. From the
center girder of the root truss hung many
colored lanterns, each alternate one bear
ing the cOmpany's number. Professor
Berger himself led the orchestra from the
Royal HaW allan Band, to whose inspir-
ing music the dance went merrilv along
until shortly past midnight. Mr.. Horn,
the jolly proprietor of the Pioneer Bak-
cry, who has catered through several
decades to hundreds of festive occasions.
presided in person over a lavishly and
stocked refreshment depart
ment. The company will realize a good
round figure from the ball, not to men
ton the satisfaction of relieving the
evening OF public holiday from dullness.
