proof, too. The room is not much
more than twenty feet square, and
tall man can touch its ceiling with
his hand. There are 1900 large
and small safes built in its walls.
They rent from So to $1,000 year.
People keep bonds, stocks, mort
cages, deeds, other valuable papers,
and jewels and money in them.
When a man calls to cut off his
coupons or look at his papers he is
identified by the keeper of the vault,
who stands by him while he unlocks
his compartment. The man takes
out the tin box and is ushered into
one of series of little rooms off the
vault. They are about as big as
Turkish bath disrobing-closet, and
contain desk and one or more
chairs. The minute of the arrival
of the man, his name, the box num-
her he opened, and a few other
things are recorded in n book kept
by the vault-keeper. The little
closet he is shown TO is examined to
see that there is nothing in it except
the desk and writing materials and
the chairs. When the man has
clipped his coupons and brings back
his tin box to put in his safe, the
time of his departure is recorded,
and the closet he occupied is in
spected to see that he left nothing
valuable behind. Some of the rich
men come to look at their papers
only once in a month or two. Others
90 there once in the morning, when
they are going down town TO their
offices, and then stop there again in
the afternoon when returning home.
These are the men who leave there
whatever extra actual money they
have from day to day. But gold
and silver and treasury notes are
not largely left in the vault. The
contents of the boxes are chiefly the
papers representing money. How
ever, at the time of the Grant &
Ward failure plenty of people got
frightened and brought big rolls OF
bills from downtown banks and
stuffed them into their compart-
ments. Lots of men who don't rent
boxes permanently did hire them
then for short periods. Many oi
the safes are used by trustees OF
estates. These safes cannot be
opened by one person. For as
many trustees as there are there are
as many keys, and whenever the
safe has to be unlocked all the trus.
tees have to come. Each one per-
forms different service in opening
the lock. The keeper will insert his
key, twist it, and thus prepare the
lock for the insertion of Trustee A S
key. Trustee AS key is put in by
him and turned, and this makes it
ready for the key of Trustee B. Al
last the bolts are turned, and the
door may be opened. This mechani
cal device has to be resorted to il
order that no single trustee may ge
access by himself alone to the paper:

A NEW YORK BANK.

What looks like the iron-railed
door of cell may be seen just be-
yond the entrance to the Lincoln
Bank. 1t is the passage-way to the
vault for money and valuables. The
cell door is always locked, and in
the daytime a man is always in the
vault. Besides the open iron-rail-
ing door there is a set of others of
steel plates which close in the pas
sage-way. The wall is lighted by
gas, and except for small desk
there is nothing to be seen in it be-

ELECTRIC LIGHT.

An increase in the number of
lights is the next step in the electric
lighting of Honolulu. Perhaps more
than double the number now in use
would be required to thoroughly
illumine the city and populous SUBJ
urbs. What we have is q great
boon, and creates the wish to see
their number extended. Whether
the Public Treasury can admit of
any further drafts for light at pre-
sent, in view of the many pressing
demands on it for other require
ments, is questionable but we have
no doubt the time will come when
it will be capable of bearing the
strain. There is ground for hope,
too, that in the not very distant
future our places of business and
private residences will be lighted by
electricity. 1t is the opinion OF
some gentlemen who have studied
the subject that the field is sufli-
GENTLY large to warrant an enter
prise of this nature. OF course,
we cannot expect the Government
to undertake the service. Lighting
the streets of city is public duty,
but to furnish light for people in
their own "castles" is not. The
latter is as distinctly private as the
former is distinctly public, and it is
unreasonable to expect the public
funds to be used for such a purpose.
No doubt the Government will al,
ways be ready TO accord every en-.
couragement to private enterprise
undertaking to furnish the people
with electric light in their houses.

which so many seem now to be af-
fiicted? II you will remember few
years ago the word Malaria was COM
paratively unknown,-to-day it is as
common as any word in the English
language, yet this word covers only
the meaning of another word used by
our forefathers in times past. SO it
is with nervous diseases, as they and
Malaria are intended to cover what
our grandfathers called Billiousness,
and all are caused by troubles that
arise from a diseased condition of the
Liver which in performing its func.
tions finding it cannot dispose of the
BILE through the ordinary channel is
compelled to pass it off through the
system, causing nervous troubles,
Malaria, Bilious Fever, etc. You
who are suffering can we'll appreciate

MASSACHUSETTS DEMOCRATS.
SPRINGFIELD, Mass, Sept. 5.-The
Democratic state convention met here
to-day. The platform commends the
administration of president Cleve-
land and endorses his administration
and the nomination of Judge Thur
man as vice president, and the reduc-
tion of the present war tariff to such
point as will leave in the pockets of
the people over $l00,000,000, now
locked up IN the treasury vaults at
Washington. 1t approves the Mills
bill, denounces the proposed abolition
of internal revenue on liquors and
tobacco by the Republican party, de-
mands such legislation by congress
as will curb the power and arrest the
growth of trusts, approves the recent
retaliation message sent to congress,
sends greeting to Gladstone, Parnell
and their co-workers in the cause of
Irish home rule and recommends the
enactment by congress of more strin-
gent measures for the protection of
the wage earners of the United States
against foreign contract labor.
The convention was called to order
by Hon. P. A. Collins. Hon. J. J..
Donovan, of Lowell, was made per
manent chairman. After speeches
and the appointment of committees,
Hon. W. E. Russell was nominated
for governor by acclamation.
