AS in one of my former articles,
treating on "Capital and Labor" l
again repeat here that the principles
of personal rights and liberty de-
mand that all parties shall have the
indisputable right to offer and ac-
cept such wages as can be agreed on.
We cannot blame very well those
who are on the constant hunt for
cheap labor. But this can be car
ried to excess, so as to become a
public evil and curse. There is
abundance of labor on these ISL
ands glad and willing to work, but
not on$16 per month, which they can
not do. If employers wish TO obtain
help at that price, let them get it,
providing parties at this place can
be found to work for such wages.
If they are then willing to labor at
that rate, they enter bargain with
ears and eyes open. Give the dup
ed ones living here the first chance
to make a living, instead of import
ing foreign labor at wages on which
which person accustomed to free
country cannot live. For this rea-
son let us try to get the laws relat-
ing to the Contract Labor System
and Passports abolished. Let us
agitate this, so as to cause prosper.
ity once more TO return to these Isl.
ands. BYE-AND-BYE.

of the safety-valve will afford him
relief. IL is absurd to talk of "star-
walton wages" being paid to inn
ported contract labor, considering
that the laborers live and save
money besides. Very recently lot
of japanese laborers returned to
their own country, at the expiration
of their contracts, each taking with

A SUDDEN DEATH.

A man named Kippen, Scotch
man by birth, died in an upper room
of the Merchants Exchange saloon,
last evening. 1t appears Kippen
went to the saloon during the day,
and asked for a place to rest, as he
was feeling ill. He was accordingly
taken upstairs. Information of the
man being there in sick condition
was conveyed to the Police Station.
An officer at once made investiga-
tion, and procured medical aid. The
man was then in a dying condition.
He expired at a little past seven
O'Clock in the evening.
Kippen came here from San Fran
cisco few months ago, during the
time that quarantine was operative
against vessels from that port. On
being freed from quarantine he ap-
piled at the BULLETIN Office for en-
ployment as shorthand reporter.
He then stated that he had only
been short time in San Francisco,
and that formerly he lived in Sgd
ney, Australia, where he did short
hand reporting for newspapers. He
procured temporary employment in
the law office of Mr.. Kinney, during
the session of the Legislature, after
which he went to one of The other
islands. He did some active SER
vice in connection with the Anti
Asiatic Association.
A few days ago Kippen returned
to Honolulu, looking very sickly and
complaining of being i'll, He told
an acquaintance that he had been
shot through the body in some Afri-
can war, from the effect of which he
was suffering, and that he was going
back to Sydney to die. He pur-
chased an aloha ring during yester-
day forenoon at the jewelry shop of
Mr.. Lindsay, which he intimated
was for some relative or friend.
An autopsy held this morning by
DR.. G. II. Rogers showed that the
deceased had been suffering from
chronic bronchitis, and that there
were extensive pleuritic adhesions
on both sides, particularly on the
right. The muscular tissue of the
heart was fabby, and there was
some disease of the valves. In the
doctors opinion the above described
condition was sufficient to cause
death.-Nov. 20.
The deceased was buried from
st. Andrews Cathedral Tuesday
afternoon, Rev. Geo. Wallace con-
ducting the service. Mr.. T. r.
Walker, British Vice-Consul, at
tended the funeral.

Mr.. GRAENHALGH.

Yesterday afternoon about thirty
gentlemen, creditors of Mr.. w. III.
Graenhalght met at the Arlington,
by request of his attorney, Mr.. c.
Bolte.
Mr.. Bolte explained to the meet
ing the circumstances under which
he was prevailed upon by Mr..
Graenhalgh to act for the latter dur
ing his absence.
Mr.. Graenhalgh's ostensible rea-
son for leaving the kingdom in so
abrupt manner, was to secure q
legacy in New York, amounting to
$40, 900.
After some discussion it was at
length decided, by unanimous CEN
sent, that an assignment be made
for the benefit of his creditors, of
all Mr.. Graenhalgh's goods and
chattels, and the meeting separated
at 1880 p. IN.
Since that time, however, the Gre
ditors have reconsidered the decis-
ion then found, and Mr.. Graen
halgh's business will, if no further
reconsiderations are made, be allow
ed 10 go on until sufficient time
shall have elapsed 10 hear from that
gentleman, who it is understood, has
promised to wire instructions from
New York to San Francisco in time
to catch the steamer due here ON
21st of December.-Nov. 22.

OUR LOS ANGELES LETTER.

Our lovely summer weather still
continues. The mornings and even
ings are quite cool, but the temper
ature at noon is above 80 degrees.
With the exception of a few little
showers, we have had no rain since
last April, and the ground is very
dry. Our streets and gardens are
sprinkled daily, and vegetation
fourishes everywhere. The flowers
bloom luxuriaptly and would do
credit to your own lovely islands.
During the past week new city
charter has been adopted, which will
doubtless increase the prosperity of
the municipality. Work continues
briskly on several large blocks,
some of which will be quite orna-
mental. About rs, 100000 feet of
lumber have been used by our build
ers this year; also large quantities
of bricks and stone. Some of the
new structures will be handsomely
ornamented with terra Gotta. This
material is used freely in the large
building belonging to the Woman's
Christian Temperance Union, and in
the new City Hall. 1t is probable
that the Public Library will be re-
moved to more capacious quarters
next year. The four rooms now de-
voted to the Library are crowded
every day. In addition to home
circulation many readers consult
books within the building.
An expensive iron bridge will be
constructed across Los Angeles
river, connecting the main portion
of the city with the beautiful East
ern suburbs. While the foundations
are being laid, temporary bridge
accommodates the horse cars and
foot travel.
A Chamber of Commerce has re-
Gently been organised, which will
cooperate with the Board of Trade
in encouraging immigration and
manufactures. Two excursion par
ties from the Eastern States have
arrived within a few days, and
others are expected very soon.
Business of all kinds is beginning to
improve, and there is every reason
to believe that season of unexam-
pied prosperity is at hand.
The several political parties are
as busy in Southern California as in
other parts OF the American Union.
No less than three mammoth tents are
used as headquarters by the Repub-
licans of Los Angeles. Enthusiastic
rallies are held every week, and
the uniformed Harrison and Morton
clubs often indulge in torchlight
professions on those evenings when
distinguished speakers are expected.
A new enrolment of the voters has
been completed, from which it is
estimated that the permanent popu-
lation of this city is not less thar
$500.
The. University of Southern Cali
fornia is riaking arrangements fol
the construction of refracting
telescope of 40 inches aperture
considerably larger than the Lick
instrument. Several years will bt
required to complete the telescope
which will be the largest of its class
in the world. Meanwhile an observ'
atory will be built upon Wilson's
Peak, the highest point of the Sierrs
Madre range, ten miles from Los
Angeles. Our clear atmosphere il
well adapted for astronomical re
search. A. b. w.

MC'TIGME---PAYNE.

The marriage of Mr.. Thos. Nc
Tighe, night clerk at the Hawaiian
Hotel, to Miss Alice S. Payne of
Cork, Ireland, took place last even
ing at st. Andrews Cathedral, the
ceremony being performed by the
Rev. George Wallace, assisted by
Rev. HI. H. Gowen. Quite a large
number of friends were in the body
of the Cathedral to witness the
ceremony. Miss Lindsay was
bridesmaid and Mr.. p. Lucas Off
ciated as best man. Mr.. Thos
Lindsay gave the bride away. She
was attired in very pretty costume
of white silk, with veil and orange
blossoms. AS the bridal party left
the church Mendelssohns Wedding
March was played on the organ.
A reception was held at the old
Dudoit house, on Beretania street,
and was a very enjoyable affair. A
most tastefully decorated and abun-
dainty supplied table greeted the
eyes of numerous and well wishing
friends. Several toasts were pro-
posed and responded to and the zest
and good cheer that prevailed
throughout this very enjoyable even
ing was surely of kind which will
give "Tom" and his bride guaran-
tee that sincere friendship for botl
is not lacking. Eventually the tables
were cleared away and dancing
commenced and was kept up unit
an early hour this morning. The
Hawaiian Quintette Club sang
several vocal selections during the
evening. Nov. 20.

THE DUDOlT HOUSE,

"'The Dudoit House" is an appel
lation familiar to most people in this
town. But it sometimes misleads,
on account of being applied to two
different houses, which have no con-
nection with each other. There is a
cottage on the Hawaiian Hotel
grounds, fronting on Beretania
street, known as the Old Dudoit
House, but by "the Dudoit House"
is usually meant the private hotel
kept by Mrs. Dudoit, 1t is situate
on King street, and was formerly
the residence of Hon. G. r. Bishop.

recently, suspected band of campers,
who claim TO be catching wild horses, and,

to demand the surrender Of the thieves.
The reply of the desperadoes was volley,

and no quarter was asked or given. In
twelve minutes the firing ceased, and sew

A WATER SPOUT
Causes Ruin and Desolation at
Hot Springs, Ark.
A Mighty Torrent Sweeps Through the
Town-Many buildings Wrecked,
with the Loss of Several Lives.

Hor SPRINGS, ARK, Aug. 3i.-To-day is
an epoch in the history OF Hot Springs.
The city is Quilted. Ruin and wreck meet
the vision everywhere, and nothing like IL
has been ever known to compare with the
results of last nights storm, which occur
red too late to be telegraphed. 1t was
water-spout, and the valley was swept
with mighty tidal wave. The loss to
property is fearful, while the sacrifice OF
human life is, under the circumstances,
appalling. Swift and terrible was the yis-
itation. Without warning peo-
pie were awakened from slum-
ber 10 find themselves threatened with
destruction by mad waves Strange TO
relate, few people were conscious OF a hor-
rfble disaster till' they awoke to look upon
the desolate scene this morning and drag
the drowned from drifts. The storm struck
the town about eleven O'Clock last night
from a ENTHUSIASTICALLY direction. TWAS
accompanied by stiff cool wind, though
not strong enough to produce damage.
Rain fell in torrents from eloyen to one
o'clock without intermission or cessation.
Indeed, those who were up and witnessed
the awful scene describe il as one never
before seen by thcm. The vivid flashes
OF lightning displayed, as 1t were, great
sheets of falling water. At the close of
the storm great and ominous sounds, min
gled with shouts OF people and cries OF
distress, went up from the valley and
such citizens as were in the vicinity
OF the creek and ravines went forth to rem
der assistance. The flood on Central ave-
nue., the principal thoroughfare, assumed
the form Of an angry river, whose rushing
tide swept every thing movable on its
bosom. For over half an hour the avenue
| was transformed into torrent fifty yards
wide. Barrels, boxes and parts Of houses
came down on the tide and were left strewn
on the sidewalks. Several large hotels
were flooded to the der'as Of four feet
with murky waters. Many buildings were
totally wrecked. Up to this hour six per-
sons are known to be missing, fveo whom
have been found dead in wrecked build
ings. The damage to property is esti
mated at 100000.

BALTIMORE, Sept. AIT an early hou
this morning fire broke out in the toy
warehouse of Z. A. Prior & Co., South
Sharp street. Before the firemen could get
to work an explosion of fireworks wrecked
the building, and caused the flames to
spread with alarming Iapidity to the drug
house of ]. II. Winkelman 81 Co., on the
north, and the hat house Of M. s. Levy q
Co., on the south. Scarcely had the fire.
men entered the edifice occupied by the
drug house when the inside Of the build
ing seemed to suddenly drop in, a terrific
explosion followed, and the immense
building collapsed. The entire fire depart
ment had by this time reached the scene,and
as the attention Of the men were concen-
trated on the building under which their
comrades were buried, tho flames had
chance to spread, and spread they did
with frightful rapidly. In an incredibly
short space of time the entire block, rum
ming from Lombard to Pratt street, was
seething mass Of flame. At the drug house
the firemen worked bravely. Holes were
cut through the pavement, and every
effort was made to reach the imprisoned
men, but they were buried beneath
great mass OF brick and iron, and fierce
flames were roaring around the spot.
Awful groans came from the pile, which
seemed to make the working firomen
put forth superhuman efforts, and
after more than an hours work it became
evident that some of the men were alive,
and that they were being roasted to death.
John Kelley, OF Truck No. 2, managed to
crawl out from the rubbish, and Of the
men who entered the building he was the
only one to escape with his life. He was
cut and bruised, but his injuries are not
serious. 1t is certain that seven fremen
perished, and 1t may be that others were
with them when the crash came. The
charred remains OF three of the brave men
were rescued this afternoon. The total
property loss will probably reach $500 :
900, aud it is pretty well covered
| by insurance, most Of which is
| in small policies in out-of-town COM
| panies. The origin of the fire will prob
| ably never be known. No fire was used In
the Prior establishment, and it is supposed
that spontaneous combustion was the
cause. But it is known that system OF
electric lighting was introduced in the
building recently, and it was only tried
last night, and it may be that defective in
| sulation started the flames, and tho com
bustible nature of tho contents Of the build
ing served as food for the destroying ele
nlents. The fire was discovered by an in
to1icated man who stopped to rest on tn
steps Of a building opposite.
