Now what are the facts ? The
population of Honolulu and of Ha-
wall nei was never larger than it
is to-day; the demand for food and
clothing, for necessaries and lux
uries, was never greater, than it is
now; the importations of lumber
and building materials, the num-
Der of houses erected in this city
and throughout the group, which
constitute the best gauge of pros
perity, has never compared with
what they have been this current
year of 1891. Add to this the fact
that the export and import COM
merce of Hawai- for 1890, which
was over twenty millions, if dis
tributed per capita among our
population OF 10000, gives an aver
age of over 1922 to each lnhabitant
indicating a national prosperity
surpassed only by a few other
nations.
There is no cause for gloomy
forebodings for Hawaiians. The
man who is hopeful, confident, and
determined to prosper, and above
all, who advertises to the reading
world what he has that the
world wants and must have, and
who knows how to improve his
opportunity, need have no fears for
the future. Advertise freely, and
you are on the right track to sue
cess and independence.

Turn, turn my wheel! Turn round and
round
without pause, without sound:
So spi the flying world away;
This clay, we'll mixed with mari ana sand
Follows the motion of my hand;
For some must follow and some command
Though all are made OF clay
That reminds us! Do you
admire the beautiful in art as
applied to Pottery Yes
Then look in at the few odd
pieces we have in our cases.
They are only the first words
in the chapter from the tacln-
ating story the piles of un-
packed casks will tell to your
eyes a month hence. Too
much elegance at once is
worse than too little. Well
give it to you in moderate
doses.
The world is full of humbug,
and there's al7oays a market
for it; pottery humbug and
other sorts: people like it
hence it hourishes. But have
you ever seen any humbug
about RooKwooD? We hav'nt,
neither have yOu, and yet the
trade in it is fourishing. Pot
terry is too plebeian a word to
use in this connection, but the
photographers say they can't
find one elegant enough to
mix with it, and combining the
two lifts Pottery from the hum
bic position it has occupied SO
many thousand years. Rock
WOOD deserves something bet
ter, but we can't coin names !;
perhaps yo~ can suggest one?
If you wear a mOustache
and drink tea or coffee,
you've noticed that you have
to wipe your fascinater every
time you take a mouthful of
either beverage. It's a lot of
bother, and the napkins are
solled at every meal. You
can't do without a napkin, and
you wouldn't part with your
moustache for a trihe. The
chances are that the person
who invented the means to
avoid such trouble and dirt
was a woman. They're full of
good ideas, and the Moustache
Cup is one of them. If your
husband has a moustache and
soils the linen with it, he ought
to have a cup. If your boy
has a suspicion ola moustache
he'll think he must have one
to save annoyance. You'd
better get him one it won't
hurt you, and it'll make him
feel lots bigger. We have
them in Haviland, and you
can get one Or a dozen.
When the light shines on a
table decorated with Cut Glass,
and the rays touch each indiv-
ldual trace of the artists hand,
what a prismatic display fol-
lows. Let the sun shine
through your dining-room win
dow upon real Cut Glass, and
you have a picture you may
watch for hours with no desire
for a change. In purchasing
Cut Glass you serve two pur-
poses. First: utility ; and the
the next to please the eye.
What guest would not enjoy a
meal more if the dishes har-
monlzed with the edibles?
We don't ask you to come

The approach of the holidays
calls for an increase of space for
advertisements, and this necessi-
tates the addition of two pages to
our daily issue, which will be de-
voted to local news, correspondence
and advertisements, till the close
of the year at least. Very few
cities of it's size surpass Honolulu
in devotion to the holiday season !;
and we'll it is so, for it is the out
come of Christian civilization and
progress, which aims to bind in
one great brotherhood of man all
peoples and kindreds of every race

One of the great advantages of
Eva Plantation is its nearness to
market. 1t is only an hour from
the workshops where it's machinery
was made. This is an advantage
which is bound to tell in many an
emergency, and will save the plan
tation in cases of serious accidents
to machinery thousands of dollars.
For example, Saturday, some
bolts of peculiar design wero inn
peratively needed. A plantation
employee was despatched to town,
and within an hour and a quarter
of the moment when he left the
plantation, he was on the train
again with the order filled. What
might have caused an indefinite
delay anywhere else, here only
occasioned pause of a couple of
hours. This is only fair sample
of the numerous advantages, big
and little, which will accrue to
Eva from it's favorable situation.

mill, which have now reached COM
pletion. This mill, with the still
larger one now in process of con-
struction at Makaweli, is the prin-
cipie fruit of the great boom in
the sugar industry caused by the
good prices and great prosperity
Of two years ago.
We do not believe that the under
takings begun SO auspiciously then
are doomed to failure. On the
contrary, we have faith to believe
that with proper labor the sugar
industry Will survive the present
depression as it did that of several
years ago.
Certainly Eva Plantation has al
most every advantage which a rich
soil, favorable location, an abundant
water supply and perfect ma
chinery can give. The mill is the
best as we'll as one of the largest in
the kingdom. 1t was the design Of
the company TO have simply the
most perfect machinery invented
and that design has been carried
out in mill which is triumph O
mechanical skill, and credit
to the sugar industry of these
Islands. With such q mill almost al
our very doors, with plantation
managed as Eva is, within ar
hours ride of Honolulu, it il
ridiculous to talk of the "extrava
gance" of the planters, and to pre-
tend that they could make sugar
more cheaply if they did not throw
their money around SO loosely.

PARKRRsBuRa, VIVA, March 1s.-The

electric light contract in this city has
taken a decidedly sensational turn.
City Councilman Charles I. Caldwell

A. B. Graham for damages in. the sum OF
ten thousand dollars for an alleged
SANDER. The suit was brought through
Mr.. Caldwell's counsel, Jackson &
Yeaton, and the summons was Issued
requiring Mr.. Graham TO appear at the

The grounds on which the suit is
brought are familiar. Mr.. Caldwell

MAHTIasDuRa, w. Va, March 1s.-A
large meeting, called by the delegation
which waited on hepresident Of the B.
& o. R. R., was held in the Court House
tonight. The object was to make a re.
port Of the conference. A large crowd
Of railroad and business men were
present. Mr.. ]. W. Bishop, who pre-.
sided at the meeting, said that President
Mayer bad given them definite iniorma.
ton that they would move the two di-
visions to Brunswick and the shops 10
Cumberland come time In May, and that
the families Of the employees would have
10 move to those places. He further
said that Il. r. Mayer strongly denied
that Vice President King had promised
Senator Faulkner that II the shops aud
division were moved they would bs re.
placed by something that would bring
q larger revenue to the city, and hoped
that Senator Faulkner would explain
the foundation OF the report he had pub.
lished In the papers Of this city.
This action OF the Baltimore & Ohio
has no doubt caused large decrease in
the value Of property and caused much
anxiety among the business men Of the
city who realize that $4,000 q month
taken away from them would cause a
heavy depression In business. Nearly
all Of them have signed a paper TO the
effect that they would shift all their
freights over the Cumberland Valley
railroad. This amounts TO about $780,
600 a year, hut 1t is scarcely hoped that
that even this move will have the
desired effect.

Address..-Great Crowds.

GRAFTON, W. Va, March 1S.-Ths
State Sunday School convention con-
vened for business in the lecture room
Of the NJ. E. church this morning at 8
o'clock. After q short devotional ser
vice, the forenoon was spent in Bible
readiug, appointment Of committees,
reports Of the work from delegates and
in a general discussion Of the needs Of
the Sunday school and how to meet
thom.
The reports were made by counties
and were very interesting, but the dis
cussion was more interesting still. In
this connection, Hon. Waitman T.
Wiley, the venerable statesman from
Morgantown, with feeble voice but the
old time fervor, made q grand speech
which, in one moment, melted his audi.
ence to tears and in the nezt inspired
them to the highest pitch OF enthusiasm.
The afternoon was occupied in hear
ing reports from the various committees
until $3.50 o'clock, when Mrs. w. F..
Crafts, whose home is in Philadelphia,
but whose reputation is world wide, en-:
tertained the convention with normal
lesson on teaching which lasted until
adjournment. This was one OF the most
instructive and entertaining features, 80
far, OF the convention.
At 1880 o'clock this evening, the
auditorium Of the church was crowded
to Its utmost capacity with the largest
congregation ever assembled at a place
OF worship in Grafton. the exercises
consisted OF q song service, an address
on the duty OF parents to the Sunday
school by Rev. Charles s. Stump, Of the
Lutheran church at Martinsburg, and
an address on the Essentials in Teach
ing, by Rev. L. E. Peters, ot the Baptist
church at Parkersburg.
Both OF these speeches were spicy
and full OF spirit, aud in spite OF the un-
comfortably crowded condition Of the
room were listened to with rspt atten-
ton. DR.. White, OF Fairmont, also made
brief but eloquent address on Sunday
school work in general. The attendance
was larger to-day than yesterday, the
delegations having been increased by
new arrivals. No event has created 30
much interest here recently as this con-
vention, business men leaving their
places Of business, teachers their schools
and heads OF families their homes 70 be
present and profit by what they see and
hear.
The session will close to morrow night.
