For Housewives to Try.

~
Ina bulletin issued by the division
of entomology, department of agricul-
ture, DR.. O. ". Riley, writing of insect
pests of the household, after describ-
ing various species of cockroaches,
says:-In the latitude of Washington
and further south the croton bug eats
everything which contains paste,
and consequently wall paper,
photographs. and especially GER
tain kinds of cloth book
bindings, suffer severely from their
attacks. In Insect Life will be found
an accoun of severe injury done to
certainsof the important files in the
treasury department at Washington,
the bindings OF many Important pub
lie documents being disfigured and
destroyed. In the Office Of the United
States coast and geodetic survey they
have become an intulerable nuisance
by eating off the surface and particu-
larry the blue and red paint from the
drawings of important maps.
How to kill them and prevent this
damage is the question. Without
condemning other useful measures or
remedies like borax l would repeat
that in the free and persistent use of
Californian buhach or some other
fresh and reliable brand of pyrethrum
or Persian insect powder we have the
most satisfactory means OF dealing
with this and the other reaches
mentioned. Just before nightfall
go into the infested rooms and
puff it into. all crevices, under
base boards, into the drawers and
cracks Of old furniture--in fact, wher-
ever there is a crack-and in the
morning the floor will be covered
with dead and dying or demoralized
and paralyzed reaches, which may
easily be swept up or otherwise col
lected and burned. With cleanliness
and persistency in these methods the
pest may be substantially driven out

A Hawaiian Guide.

"The Tourists Guide Through
the Hawaiian Islands," compiled
and edited by Henry M. Whitney,
is the best manual that has yet
been issued to aid the tourist in his
search for the picturesque on these
islands of the Pacific. 1t is admir-
ably arranged; it gives all the in
formation which the ordinary
traveller needs, and it is wholly free
from the exaggeration that renders
so many books of this class well
nigh worthless. When the editor
wishes to give an idea of the famous
scenery he quotes the words of
travellers who have a worldwide
reputation. Thus he selects Miss
Isabella Birds wonderful picture
of the Volcano, and any one who
reads this description will long to
view this unparalleled spectacle.
All the principal points of interest
on the islands are fully described
and many of them are presented
in excellent process illustrations
from photographs. There are also
several good maps. (Honolulu

WEDNESDAY,
THE CONSTITUTIONAL CON
VENTION.

The debate on the Constitutional
Convention is spinning itself out to
interminabIe lengths in the House,
and at present there are no
visible signs of the end. Yesterday
the Chairman was about to take
advantage of a lull, when Noble J.
M. Horner jumped to his feet and
managed to give the tagging de-
bate a new lease of life.
The most interesting thing about
the talking-if anything about it
can be called interesting-is the
discussion which it has included as
to the likelihood of there being any
disturbance here, and the causes of
the feeling of uneasiness which has
to some extent prevailed. 1t is
characteristic of Bush and Wilcox
that they have assumed the role of
patrons of the peace and quietness
with an audacity which is really
refreshing, in view of the part
which they have played, and the
utterances of which they have been
guilty in the press, on the public
platform, and even on the floor of
the House. 1t is not more than a
fortnight since they councilled the
Hawaiians to assemble in force and
compel the Legislature to call a
Convention-when they threatened
bloodshed, and promised to take a
hand in it themselves when they
were going TO have new Constltu-
ton, peaceably indeed if they might,
but forclbly if they must. This is,
however, all in the past. This is
full two weeks ago. Now they
wear sleeps clothing, and speak in
the gentlest accents-peacel peace
We rejoice IN the conversion-make
no inquiries as to its sincerity, and
hope that it will last. Probably il
villas long as the war; ships are
in port.
The question is who is respon-
sible for whatever uncasiness may
have existed, and for the ridiculous
rumors which have found their way
into sensational American dailies.
The Minister of Finance thinks it
is the insane agitation for new
constitution, accompanied, as it has
The Pacific commercial advertiser. [volume] (Honolulu, Hawaiian Islands) 1885-1921, 1890-10-01

Fortunately very few persons
have paid any serious attention to
the clamor of Reps. Bush and Will
cox. In any other country they
would have created lively sensa-
ton. The stolidlty with which our
community ignores all these fiery
speeches is very amusing. Doubt
less the climate has something to
do with it. We instinctively expect
thatathe .fervor of our skies will
reflect itself in Wilcox's words, their
softness and languor in his action.
When Wilcox threatened to fill the
Legislative hall with corpses, the
House continued to nod drowsily
as before. No one who was asleep
thought it worth while to wake up.
No one with his feet on his desk
took the trouble to take them down.
We all taoitly assume that Wilcox's
man-hunting will be of the same
numanely inoffensive type as the
lion-hunting of the immortal Tar.
tarin of Tarascon.
We do not at all deny that Bush
and Wilcox would really put their
threats Of violence into execution
if they could, but circumstances are
too strong for them. They are con-
demned Intellectually to gnash the
teeth without biting anything, and
to content themselves with the role
of the ordinary noisy demagogue

The speaker proceeded to cite historical
precedenss for the framing OF constitu-
tons by conventions called for the pur-
pose.

gress and asked leave TO sit again.

Miss Saunders, II years of age,
resides in Cincinnati. When she
was little girl of Z she swallowed
a piece of window-glass about half
an inch long. 1t occasioned her no
annoyance until few days ago,
when her right foot gave her con-
siderable pain at the instep. A
physician was called and at once
decided that there was foreign
body of some sort in one of the
large veins. Making an lncision he
picked out the identical piece of
glass swallowed when Miss Saun-
ders was a girl.

been through its entire course, by
furious demonstrations and bold
threats OF violence, bloodshed and
revolution. Rep. Bush and his fol-
lowers say-we will not venture 10
say think-that it is the Ministry,
for associating with foreign repre-
sentatives, and the Friend for pub
fishing now and then a stray sem
tence from one of his own speeches,
thereby casting lurid light over
the staid pages Of that quiet journal.
The Bulletin In one of its invaluable
treatises on things in general has
made and communicated to the
world the sapient discovery that it
is the ADVERTISER and it's wicked
faction which is responsible for
everything that is less than perfect
in existing arrangements.

any feeling of restlessness in this

progress and natural development
of our institutions, any storm cloud
On the political horizon, it is due
to nothing else in the world but the
cause which the Minister of Finance
assigned, viz, the incendiary agita-
ton which Bush and Wilcox have
kept up for the last SIX months and
more. From no other group, party,
or faction in the community have
come any threats of disturbance. No
one else has proposed a new revo.
luton. No one else has advocated
recourse to violence. 1t is they
and they alone who are responsible
if there has been any alarm. That
they should deny this is piece Of
brazen impudence, to be sure, in
view of their own spoken and
written utterances, but quite in 6
line with what the community has
learned to expect from them. That
the Bulletin under it's new manage
ment should find an interest il
shifting the responsibility from it'
political allies, unsavory companion
though they be, to it's political foe
will surprise no one.

CONGRKssMAN GEORGE ID. WISE.

With harmony and enthusiasm, auguring
well for Democracy, Congressman George
u. Wise has again been called by the peo-
plc Of the Third district To represent them
in Congress.
For such an honorable duty he is most adj
mirably fitted. Reelected continuously 10
Congress since the retirement Of General
Joseph T.. Johnston, he has shown himself
an able and faithful guardian of the rights
Of the people.
lie has steadfastly resisted the encroach-
mcnts Of Radcalism, and has returned 10
his home in Richmond at the close OF each
session with an cnyiable record, not only oil
s,cadtastness in Democracy, but also OF
practical benefits done his district through
his presence and influence in the House OF
Representatives.
That body IA a big machine upon which
IL is difficult for a mediocre member 10
make an impression. But George ID. Wise
has made an impression upon it 10 his own
honor and to the advantage of the metro
poliian district Of Virginia.
In the prime Of life, thoroughly imbued
with the love Of Virginia, Democrat par
excellence, a steady and unnagging worker
and trained by experience in The details OF
National legislation, no better choice could
have been made by the Democrats OF the
Third district than George ID. Wise.
As a leader in the Congressional contest
he has a double task before him during the
coming campaign. lie not only is to lead
and direct the work for Democratic victory.
but in dong that he is to yindicate the dis
trict from the injustice done it by Radicals
in dep irving Mr.. Wise Of his seat. That he
will Go this no doubt exists. That his vic
tory will be decisive and overwhelming
may he predicted from the ringing speeches
made in supper OF him by the two gentle
men-Colonel Tazewell Elicit and Hon.
Richard ii. Cardwell-who had contested
for the honor which he was given.
The duty of all Democrats now is to begin
Immediately the vigorous, active work
which will. by placing George ID. Wise in
his seat in Congress, show - the malignant
mlnions Of Radical Reed how the true Nir-
ginians of the Third district can resent the
insult and wrong perpetrated upon them by
party of force and fraud.

THE following figures were quoted in the
debate on the Anti-Lottery bill, which has
been passed by the House of Representa-
tives. They will furnish food foLthought to
the thousands who practically indulge their
theories about the doctrine Of chances by
contributing their mites monthly to the sup
port of the octopus whose tentacles reach
even TO the smallest hamlet;
A member from New Hampshire said that
the income was: Ten drawings, 100000
tickets at 500 each, $40, 100000; two special
drawings. $4,000 tickets at $40, sS,OOO,OOO.
Total, S2s,OOO,OOO. The expense: Prizes,
ten drawings, SlO,53s,0 900; prizes for semi
annual drawings, Si,910, 200; commissions
to agents, s2,OO0,OOO; advertising S2,OOO,OOO;
all other expenses. Sl,0OO,OOO; net profits,
s., 49,, 800. Total, $2S,OOOOOO.
In this exhibit no account is made of the
daily drawings. the exact figures of which
are not obtainable, but they exceed $1,000,
600 annually, making the enormous annual
income of s3OOOO,OOO, or twice the sum that
was paid Napoleon by Jefferson in 1901 for
the entire Louisiana purchase.
