Memorial Recognition.

AT the close of morning prayer in the
second congregation of st. Andrews
Cathedral on Sunday morning, Rev.
George Wallace preached a sermon on
the Parable of the Talents, prefaced with
remarks in recognition of the decease of
Emperor Frederick of Germany.
He said that on the 22nd of March
they had met there on the occasion of
the death of one of the most illustrious
of Emperors, when they had also in
their thoughts his son and successor.
Now all the struggle of nature was over
Emperor Frederick was where there is
no more pain and the weary are at rest.
The pious resignation of the late En-
peror to the will of God was the dis
tinguishing memory of his lingering last
illness. This was not time for words
of eulogy, it was not time to think of
scenes of his life, or to sum up his vir-
tues. He lived long enough to declare
those principles that exalt nation in
righteousness. May God so help us in
whatever position he places us that when
the time comes for us to leave we may
be found faithful.
Messrs. HI. w. Schmidt, F. A. Schae-
fer, III. F. Glade and other German citi-
zens were in the congregation, also
Princess Kaiulani and II. Ms Chamber
lain, Hon. G. T. Iaukea.

0luckSourg, via Flensburg, Germany.
Mrs. Siemsen "a native woman) testi-
ned IN good English. She had been
married to deceased IL years, and they
mad live children. They lived very
pleasantly. The day after the steamer
Australia arrived Siemsen was away tin
one O'Clock next morning, saying on his
return that he had been to the electric

was going to see Mr.. Schaefer. He went
away happy, carrying a book with him
1or Mr.. Welsh. Siemsen had no en-
pioyment for the past year, previous to
which he worked on the Eleele planta-
ton, Kauai. He was an engineer bv

questlng the Coroner to send her hus-
bands body home, said that she had no
trends to whom she could appeal for help.
The jury returned a verdict that j
Slemsen came to his death by his own
hands, by means of pistol shot dis
charged with suicidal intent, while under
mental depression.
Slemsen came to this country some
years ago as sailor on a German vessel,
AT one time here he was possessed of
respectable competence, but circum-
stances latterly went sadly against him.
tie was about 80 years of age, of fine
physique, and intelligent above the
average of his class.

their chances go by default Although on
their own side they did some excellent bat

out by superior play every time. Parker

The Hawaiian Directory
SPECIAL NOTICE.

ITO THE CITIZENS OF HONOLULU 1T
Il having been stated on the streets of our
city that I'VE had better patronize home enter
prise rather than foreign Ones, in referring to
the Directory of the Hawaiian Kingdom, now
being compiled by Mr.. ]. c. Lane, of the Nc
Kenny Directory Co.. of San Francisco. l wish
to state that it was at my request and under an
agreement with me that the Company ndertook
at this time the compilation and publication of
another edition of the directory. The edition of
their Directory. published in 1884, is the only
perfect individual Directory of the islands ever
published, and 1 therefore selected the firm to
arrange the matter for me, in preference to all
Others they having the experience. capital and
facilities for the work such as is possessed by no
other firm in lifornia, and assuredIy none
he have such facilities. 1t is the intention to
place copies of the Directory in all the wateri g
places and summer resorts of the q. S.
1t is the only Directory contemplated which
will be an individual Directory of the entire
Kingdom. The compiler of the Hawaiian Di-
rectory would therefore ask the support of the
merchants and citizens of the Kingdom in max
ing it one that shall be in every way perfect
and reliable in 1ividua1 Directory of the entire
Kingdom, something that is badly needed. Mr..
Lane is the only person who is authorized to
procure advertisements for the Hawaiian Di-
rectory. Any information regarding changes of
residence, bust ness, etc., will receive prompt
attention if left at my Book and Newspaper
store, 100 Fort street, Brewer Block.

Ornt0ry Long Drawn Out.

The average tariff speech in Con.
gross is about two hours long, and
over ono hundred Republican mem
bers havo signiflcd their desire to
speak. The average working time in
Congress Is not moro than three hours
in length aftcr the morning business
has boon transacted. 1t can be easily
seen, therefore, that unless tho work
ing timo is increased or night sessions
are held, tho dobate will carry us on
till June. These speeches arc said to
bo q plan Of the Republicans to delay
action in the mattor until after tho st.
Louis Convention, but tho schomc is
too transparent to work. Speaker
Carlislo will doubtless check such a
palpable effort to postpone action.

What One Monopoly Wanth

Two reports have been mads
ways and means committee mr.
tariff issuc-tho majority sust...Glg
the Mills bill and the minovity oppos-
Ing 1t. The minority report was by
no means n reply to the Democratic
side. Among other statements wo
noto tho ono in which it is said that
tho farmers want protection. And
what farmers aro they2 Tho WOOL
growers of Ohio and tho West. Those
articles in general use, manufactured
from wool, arc already protected to
over sixty per cent. Tho Mills bill
very wisely reduces this to about
thirty-fve per cent, thus greatly
chenpening tho covering of every
man, woman and child in tho land.
TO show the extent to which monopo-
list greed can be carried, we will state
that the convention Of wool dealers,
growers and manufactures havo peti.
toned tho ways and means committee
that tho present tariff on wool should
be raised to 100 per cent. According to
this scheme the other farmers and
professions will be taxed something
like the following:
The present tariff on certain grade
of blankets is G3.S5 al valorem, but
those farmers want it placed at 1876.
This is their own figure. On ready
made clothing, ladies' and childrcn's
apparel made up wholly or in part of
wool, worstcd, the hair of the Alpaca
goat or other like animals, the present
tariff is 67.74. The wool monopoly
wants It 1911 al valoren. On women
and children's dress goods, composed
OF wool or in part, tho present tariff
Ia 67.89. Tho wool mon want it
1O2.61. Flannels, best quality, at
present is 73.42. They want it 121. 80.
The best grade Of wool hats arc at
present 1904. Tho wool mems scheme
would place it at 134.54. The best
grade Of woolen shawls arc now
88.44. Tho proposed tariff would be
1862. Tho best quality of yarns
would be taxed 117.11. All other
manufactures not especially enumer-
ated, made. wholly or in part of wool,
according to grade and quality, would
be taxed anywhere between 81. .92 to
1861.
We have thus selected out of many
articles of woolen manufactures those
most commonly used by poor an6
rich alike to show tho greed OF these
monopolists and to what extent the,
would go unless checked. The figure;
above speak moro forcibly than words
