der in the civil war proved himself the
peer of the fiory valor of his white antag.

rade il enthusiasm and dash, and in some
other respects was superior to him." The
peer part of this story was dsproved In
every battle in which negro soldiers
were engaged. The other part may be
true. Mr.. Mathews. being northern man,

FOR any other cause for securing to every

it counted as he voted exactly as the vote OF

for The purpose OF holding the offices of the

AssOcTATED PRESS DISPATCHES
Kilrain in New Orleans.

NEW ORLEANS, July The depot was
thronged this morning with people awaiting
the arrival of Kilrain, who reached here at
lis p. m. No trouble was reported on the
route with the Mississippi or Tennessee off.
Gals. Sullivan stock ia booming this morn
ing and bets of 81 900 to $500 In his favor
are reported. It is rumored that the pro.
gramme for the fight will be changed ut the
last moment and that it will take place In
Alabama and that large cotton steamer
will be used 10 carry the crowd to the bat
ID ground. Kilrain looks well and seems to
bs in exec, lent spirits Hs expressed him
self to the effect that he never felt better 10
his life and fell now that he would win. He
cid not underrate SullVan's ekill and
strength. All he asked was fair field and
no favors and he was satisf I'd of the result.
"A the time approaches for the fight it be-
comes more apparent that it will be one Of
the most determined on recsrd. Sullivan has
by far the largest following, but notwith
standing this. there Ia not the slight
est Indication but that fair llay
will be melted out to both combatants.
The opiaion of the Attorney General Of the
State of Louisiana, in which he publicly
expressed that there was no law Of the State
prohibiting prlzs fights, has eassd the minds
of the officials, and the fight will come of
within three hours run from New Orleans.

tional Congress, The time has come
for efficient action, on the subject.
In response to an invitation from
Secretary Blaine, the San Francisco
Chamber of Commerce met, and after
discussing his letter, decided to call
a commercial conference of the lead
ing cities of the Pacific States, to
meet in San Francisco August 29th.
Among the topics proposed for dis
cussion were steam lines and sub
sides from Congress, cable lines to
Hawaii, the Pacific Islands, Austria
liza, the Nicaragua Canal, encourage
ment of maritime commerce by a
weekly line to China, etc.
It would seem as though confer
ence of our merchants and citizens
on the questions likely to be brought
before this international Congress
would be we'll, if it could be held be-
fore the departure of Mr.. Carter
The object should be to strengthen
the commercial bonds now existing
between the two countries, by urging
a weekly subsidized steam line anc
also some encouragement on the par
of the United States Government tt
the proposed cable between Sar
Francisco and this port, with an ex
tension to Australia.

The Oriental Woman.

It is rather a curious reflection
that in those countries where
woman's rights are most completely
non existent, there the specially
womanly duties of women are the
most grossly neglected. Travellers
in Egypt, for instance, tell us that
when the bells call the hour Of
prayer every man stops whatever
work he is engaged in and pros
trates himself to Allah. No woman
takes any notice Of the sound. She
is too low in the scale Of humanity
to make her tribute to the Almighty
worthy of acceptance. She ranks in
this respect almost with the brute
creation. She is not withdrawn from
her domestic duties by the claims of
religion upon her time and thoughts.
And yet the same travellers tell us
that one of the horrors of Egyptian
life is the fearful neglect from
which the children suffer.

A REMEDY FOR SNORING.
And Another if the First Proves 9
Eailure.

And Another if the First Proves
Failure.
Only man or woman chained to
that rest-destroying angel. snoring
partner, can appreciate its sinful
ness. The wicked emotions aroused
in the soul of the sufferer against the
sleeper cannot be transferred to
paper. Could man or woman pre-
serve their night thoughts of the in
nocent offender during the entire
twenty-four hours, married life would
be a bleak, treeless, unwatered waste.
For this sort Of affection, if made
public, man or woman gets only
the same class of sympathy accorded
to malaria grinning That's too
bad"
There is a remedy for ague;
quinine is bitter, but it breaks up
chills. There is a remedy for snor-
ing, and that is bitter, too Scientists
have discovered that snorers are in
variably great laughers and takers,
who exist principally with their
mouths wide open, thereby clogging
the breathing apparatus with dust,
roughening the delicate cords by
contact with crude air. To these
good-natured and loquacious sleep
killers science says: " Shut up;
keep your mouth closed; better de-
prive the world of your cackle and
chatter than turn honey into gall
and make marriage failure"
II this does not cure snoring, then
Bob Burdette's remedy for dandruff
is the only recourse-chop the head
| off.

Good Lands ON Mani.

UOOu L8nuS on VI au1s
Mr.. EDITOR: One cannot travel
anywhere on this island without
noticing large tracts of land that
still remain uncultivated, and this
is more remarkable on account of
the known richness and fertility of
the soil. The amount of such land
compared with that which is not
cultivatable, seems as nothing, and
it is the opinion that unless this
soil has all the facilities for a. first
rate sugarcane plantation it is good
for nothing. This is a mistake,
which time alone will rectify.
BY this assertion, however, I do
not wish to infer that there is any
thing likely to supersede the sugar
cane, for it is my humble opinion
that this plant has here found it's
native home and elements, and has
undoubtedly come to stay; and the
great surprise is that there should
still be found places that are suita-
BILE for cane culture, and that still
remain uncultivated. Yet there are
many such places on East Maui,
some or rather most of them are
small In extent, but if diffusion
proves a success, it means not only
more sugar but cheaper machinery,
as well. Then we can expect to
find smaller plantations and to hear
the hum of industry in many Sec
luded valley.
On West Maui, we find large tracts
of land, which seem to have every
thing necessary for first class planta-
tons. There is abundance of rich
lands, a good landing, and plenty
OF water, at no great distance. It
is not only well favored, but well
located, and one is astonished that
nothing is done with it.
Besides the land suitable for cane,
we see large tracts of choice land
lying waste or only used for pasture,
which, if cultivated, might produce
all the bread stuff used for this isl
and.
Among the large tracts we notice
that the greater part of the Ell. G.. Co.
estate at Spreckelsville is above the
ditch, and consequently useless for
sugarcane.
There are other choice pieces, both
large and small, remaining about
as nature left them.

AN INTERNATIONAL AMERICAN
CONGRESS.

An important international con
vention will meet at Washington, on
Wednesday, October I'd, to discuss
American interests. Every Amer
lean government of North, Central
and South America Except Canada)
has been invited to send delegates,
and nearly every one has appointed
them, to the number in all of some
seventy or eighty. Hawaii las been
included in the list, and will be rep
resented by His Excellency Mr..
Carter, our Minister at Washington,
who is now here, but will leave soon.
The principal topics which will be
brought before this congress will be
the adoption of measures that will
tend to increase the commerce and
trade between the United States and
the various Central and South Amer
lean Republics. And it is barely
possible that some system Of reel
procity may be proposed for adop-
ton. The first thing to be done is
to urge that congress adopt such
a policy as will naturally result IN
the establishment of steamship lines
between the principal ports of the
United States, as New York, Phila-
-, delphia, Boston, Baltimore, New
Orleans and San Francisco and the
principal ports Of the South Amer
lean States. This for years has been
the policy pursued by England,
France and Germany, greatly to
their advantage, while the United
States have had no such steamship
lines and has suffered seriously in
consequence of the omission. With
such policy American export
trade with the South American
States would rapidly be developed;
and while the United States would
be large purchasers of their pro-
ducts, she would be large seller of
her products to them in exchange
therefor.
This policy practically means a
liberal system of subsidy extended
to steamships carrying the mails be-
tween the United States and South
American and Pacific Ocean coun-
tries. Such system would call into
existence lines of ships that would
furnish the direct facilities for trade. |
and IN this way greatly increase
the export trade with these coun-
tries. Congress has repeatedly and
wisely furnished important aid to
the building of railroads, and the
country has derived immense COM
mercial advantages therefrom.
There can be no good reason WHY
the same general policy should not
be adopted in dealing with the pro
olem of international trade, when
,ver and wherever it is demanded
~ the interests of foreign COM
nerce. This whole question will be
entilated by the coming Interna-

A Noumea paper, received by the

article condemning the appointment
OF Mr.. Romilly as British Consul
at the New Hebrides. It accuses
England of being an interchangeable
enemy to commerce in the Pacific,

missionaries who are engaged in a
propaganda against the French.
1t declares Mr.. Romilly's appoint
ment ss a violation of the Anglo

THE DAILY
MONDAY.

IT IS seldom that so great an in
terest is shown in field sports as was
the case on Saturday last, when
some five thousand spectators as
sembled to witness the contest for
the baseball championship, between
the Stars and the Honolulus, which
was won by the former by single
score. 1t is doubtful whether any
baseball match ever played in Amer
lea has displayed closer contest or
better professional work than did
this. Each team held it's rival in
its grip, with a skill ant. GcSterity
which were the admiration of all the
spectators. Both teams could not
win, and the Stars have carried off
the hOnOrs which the Honolulus
have held for several years in sue
cession. Ii every match were played
as honestly as that was on Saturday.
no dishonor could attach either to
the losers or the winners. Some
of the games played the past sea-
son have been as dishonorable to
the winners as to the losers, and
where the dishonorable work can
be traced to the guilty parties, they
should be exposed and drummed out
of the League. Saturdays fine
game closed the series for the sea
son, though there will doubtless be
some volunteer playing yet.

The Haleakala Road.
VOX POPULl

Mr.. EDITOR: I feel impelled to
correct ridiculous misstatement of
the press, in regard to the new Hale
akala "road" The item is in the
ADVERTISER of September 9th, from
your Maui correspondent, who states
that "when the road is finished to
MakaWao, one can ride comfortably
to the top in brake"
The statement is too preposterous
to affect any one who knows the
mountain, but it might mislead
some on the other islands, or some
tourists AS a matter of fact, the
road" is simply good broad,
plain, bridle-trail, such as any
stranger could follow without a
guide; but with no attempt at grad
ing. doubt if your correspondent
will ever see the day when zone can
ride comfortably to the top in a
brake" MATTER OF FACT.
