far beyond our expectations.
Our desire to have several OF
the thousands of dollars that
would be floating around stop
in our store has been fully re-
allied, and we have established
a reputation for good values
that was entirely unknown in
Honolulu before.
We have introduced into
the hardware trade lines that
have heretofore held places
entirely outside the charmed
circle. 1t pleased you and to
see you happy makes us like
wise.
This week the handsome
sets of Carvers will meet in

present and may probably in
sist on taking an active part
but Cutlery is King, We have
tired you with lengthy descrip-
ton of the various articles we
have thrown open to the pub
lie gaze during the past month
and we don'tint going into
details with Carvers. There
is one set, though, that requires
more than brief mention: Ist,
it has the conventional ten
inch blade made of the best
quality of steel. The fork and
knife steel are equally good.
The handles are made of pure
ivory, old style-no imitation
about them, about the color of
No. I sugar and are almost
plain. 1t is a substantial Set,
and entirely new in design.
There's another-but then we
said we would not go into de-
tail if we did we would be
telling a. a. and you wouldn't
read it.
A great many inquiries have
been made lately for glass
suitable for serving ice cream
or custards. We have a glass
cup by the last sailing vessel
from the Coast that was made
tor the purpose. The design
is after one of the prettiest
cut patterns and looks well.
Barrels and barrels of
stamped ware have arrived.
So many different articles that
we don't know where to put
them: artistic arrangement of
the lot is out of the question;
you'll not be able to see all of
it in a dozen visits, possibly not
IN twenty, but you can ask for
what you want. Cuspidores

ROWING AND ATHLETICS.

The musical and athletic entertainment of the
Potomac Athletic Club on Friday evening at
their coZy quarters was one of the most enjoy
able affairs ever given under the auspices of the
popular organization. The reception-room
where the programme was carried out was
packed with friends of the club, and among
those present We're Congressman, judges, and
men of prominence in business circles The
programme consisted of recitation by Mr.. j .
M Noah n capital banjo solo by Mr.. William
Collins, trombone solo by Mr.. Frank Bar
barin, quartette singing by Messrs. Traylor,
Fennell, Donnelly, and BarDarin, violin re-
eltal by Mr.. d. Is. Cilley, banjo duet by Messrs.
viii and Joseph Collins, and a baritone solo by
Mr.. Donnelly. The sparring that followed
caused the greatest enthusiasm. The first ex-
hibition was between DR.. Emil Won Lindgreen
and Mr.. George Carter, of the c. A g.
1t was a lively affair, and the three rounds
We're well contested. The second bout brought
out Mr.. George French and Mr.. Edward
Finckel. 1t was a give-and-take affair from the
start, ana the Two mlddle-Welghts showed they
possessed plenty OF sand. The last encounter
was between Mr.. Wesley Cook, the recognized
champion Of feather-Weights or 122-Dound men,
and Mr.. j. H. Doyle. Their work was clever
throughout, and the spectators We're kept
guessing all the time, so quickly did the two
hit, counter, and get away. The exhibition of
Mr.. Cook was q revelation to many. The
referee, DIR. Won Lndgreen, declared the mill
draw. Both contestants were the recipients
of congratulations. The entertainment closed
with wrestling match between Genesi and
Fretwell, which the former won quickly. The
next exhibition takes place on Friday, January
30, and tie committee, Messrs. G. M. Fague,
Capt. Zappone, and William Ottley, hope to
make it even better than the one of Friday.

The Columbia Club Election

The annual election of officers of the Colum-
bia Athletic Club took place on Wednesday
evening, and, as was to be expected the contest
was attended with considerable rivalry. Most
of the old officers were reelected, thus stamping
with approval the work of their administration
Asforeshadowed some time ago inIHE HERALD,
1t was decided to make certain changes in the
rules of the club the most important being
the passage of a resolution empowering the
board of governors to increase the membership
in its discretion, the total not to exceed 1,5O0,
1000 being the present maximum Another
resolution prohibiting visiting the club by resi-
dents Of the District of Columbia was also
passed. Under this rule members can
not have as individual guests at the
club residents Of the city, though
the rule may be suspended by the board of GOV
ernors when it is desired to entertain dis
tinguished guest The distance from the city
which visiting members may live was also re-
duced from thirty to ten miles.
The report of the outgoing officers showed
the club in good condition financially. The
result of the election was as follows: James F.
Hood was re- elected President, Alex. Grant,
elected Vice President Howard Perry, re-
elected Secretary; Frank E. Smith, elected
Treasurer; S. w. Stinemetz, reelected Cap
tain, and R. w. Ryan and j. t. Rainier, elected
Lieutenants. The members of the Board OF

Shall We Have That Joint Regatta? ?

Shall We Have That Joint Regatta :?
The Potomacs have appointed their commit
tee to meet such committees as the other clubs
may appoint to promote the holding of the
National regatta here next summer This is the
proper move, and the other clubs should join it,
The Analostans have always been willing to CO.
operate, though practically non-combatants.
1t is estimated that the total expense of
the regatta would be about 81 200, and it is
certainly true that more than one-half of this
would be contributed by enterprsing citizens.
The Columbia Athletics, at meeting on We'd
nesday evening following the annual election
of officers, almost unanimously agreed to ap-
point committee to meet the one appointed by
the Potomacs for the purpose of arranging
ways and means for holding the National re-
gatta here next summer. The committee con-
sists of Capt w. II. Gibson as chairman, and
he is given authority to appoint the other mem
bers, and they are empowered to go ahead and
make arrangements. This ought to make every
thing lovely in aquatics on the Potomac once
more and heal all the differences of the past.
The HERALD has labored for some years for
this, and now that it is accomplished throws
up its hat e6ultantly Now then, Analostans,
