its cool breath throughout the grove,
making the change most refreshing.

v A Sudden Death.

Moses Keumi, the elder of the Keumi
brothers, well known throughout this
Kingdom as the clever Hawaiian aero
bat, died suddenly at his home at II 80
o'clock on Tuesday night. He leaves a
wife, mother and brother to mourn
his loss. His funeral took place from
the Roman Catholic Church on Wednes-
day afternoon. =
The deceased kept little dry-goods
store for some time on King street, near
Haaliliamanu bridge, but finding che
ia game more lucrative business, closed
his store and followed it up for several
months. It is claimed by knowing ones
that he Melted over fifty dollars daily
through che ia.

In New Quarters.

Messrs. M. Phillips & Co. have got
pretty we'll settled in their new quarters
on the corner of Queen and Fort streets,
Campbell's block, formerly occupied~by
G. W. Macfarlane & Co., although they
are still expecting some things from the
Coast. There are two rooms on the
ground floor-65 by IS feet-and two oil
the same dimensions on the first story.
This gives store of magnificent proper.
tons. and gives them fine opportunity
to display their large stock to adj
vantage. The present quarters of the
firm are far superior in point of location
light, space and air to the old place on
Kaahumanu street, and as present ar
ranged make one of the finest stores in
Honolulu.

A FEW LINES ABOUT PAINTING.

First, if you want a job of painting
done, give it to practical painter, and
not to builder, contractor or architect,
for you will get botch job. can prove
what | say, being practical painter N.Y.
self, and not Jack of all trades"
Here are my reasons: When you give
out the contract for building your house
to builder. contractor or architect they
include the painting. We will say the
building is worth 5000 to put up. Say
the painting is worth, for a frst-class
job, 5000. Then the contractor puts in
his bid for S., 300 and gets the work. He
then proceeds to let out the painting to
any botch that may come along. The
lowest man gets it, regardless of what
kind of work may be done. He (the So
called painter) is probably doing the
work for 5000. The contractor puts $500
in his pocket. You. who are paving
5000 for frst-class job, get a botched
job that is not worth even the 5000, for
you have had lot of daubers at work,
who furnish not enough of materials and
of poor quality at that. I can show
you fifty buildings in Honolulu that have
been painted in the way 1 have ex-
planned. If the buildings were mine I
would rather that they had not been
painted at all. know of only one con-
tractor in this town that could except
from the above charge. The best way
to get frst-class job of painting is to let
the builder do the building of the house,
and give the painting to a practical
painter. will do nothing but frst-class
work, and consequently do not solicit
painting from builders, contractors or
architects.

Pneumatic Tires for Bicycles.

The new bicycles imported by Messrs.
T. III. Davies & Co. are being rapidly
sold, and lovers of the sport of wheeling
now have choice of almost all the
different kinds of wheels made. Out OF
fourteen safeties imported, only six re-
main. Of these six, three have pneu-
matte tires. These are large, rubber
tires, hollow, and with a canvas tube on
the inside, which is blown up some
thing in the way of football, except
that an air pump is used. When in
hated, the tire is about two and one-half
inches in diameter. Being hollow, "a great
amount of the jar from holes or stones in
the road is taken away. Whether these
wheels will ever become popular in
Honolulu remains to be seen. 1t is GER
tainly to be hoped that wheeling will re-
ceive an impetus here, now that the club
has been started, and as our roads are
of the finest for practise, there is no
reason why some good records cannot be
made.
