DIR. PAGES RESIGNATION.

There has been some speculation in
Harlem, the upper portion of this city,
among the nOn-members of the cOngre-
CATION Of the New York Presbyterian
church. at Seventh avenue and One Hundred
and Twenty EIGHTH street, regarding the re-
sgnation Of the pastor. Rev. DR.. w. w Page.
q be published report that his resignation was
due 10 his advanced age is. of course. erroni-
GUS as DR.. Page is only forty-six years old.
II has now been pastor OF the church for
twenty-five years, and has for several years
desired TO discontinue his labors and take a
needed rest, but the church refused TO accept
his resignation. When he again offered his
resignation few days ago it was again re-
iected by vote of rs to 3. The matter will
be considered at a meeting of the Presbytery
IN the Scotch church on June sth. DR.. Page
has told his friends that while all he desires is
d period Of rest. he hardly feels that his
church could afford 10 give him a vacation
such as he is in need of, and that he therefore
tet 1t his duty 10 resign. A movement Is on
foot in the congregation to retain DR.. Pages
services by making provisions for giving him
long vacation. When the civil war began
Dr. Page. at the age of sixteen years, entered
the Confederate army, and he became captain
OF General K. + Lees scouts and couriers.

Certainly. and am expected to see
that YOU do il. But suppose I overlook
YOU. The company loses five cents,
but am responsible for the loss, not
you. You do your whole duty when

A Day for Runaways.

Tuesday seemed to be favor
able day for runaway horses. The
first to make a break for liberty was
the one driven by Mrs. B. f. Dill
bingham, starting from the railway
station the horse made q Decline up
King street, with Mrs. Dillingham;,
unlike what most ladies would have
done, bravely holding to the reins
until nearing the Government build
ing Mr.. Owen Holt seeing the run
away, jumped upon his horse,
loosened his lasso and his horse
being in good condition soon over
took the racer and succeeded in
lassoing him without any damage
whatever.
Runaway number two can hardly
be considered such, as the horse
didn't go that way. He did the
opposite trick, and the rider, small
boy about nine years old, was thrown
to the ground, stunned by the fall
and face disfgured and cut.
The third and equally serious hap
pened to another small boy driving
a cart. While turning the corner at
Fort and Merchant streets the cart
gave jolt throwing the boy on the
pavement by Mr.. Goldberg's store,
knocking the lad senseless. He was
taken inside the store when medical
aid was summoned and the hurt at
tended.

Dixon Graphite Company.

It is a singular fact that not one
out of a dozen people who use a
LEAD" pencil know the composition
of the pencil. 1t is not a LEAD !"
pencil but a graphite pencil that is
generally used. OF course, if you
buy an inferior pencil, there may be
a composition of lead, but a truly
good pencil such as the Dixon Cru
chile Company, of Jersey City, N. j.,
make is of different material. The
Dixon Company own the only sue
cessful graphite mines in America,
and they manufacture about 300 dis
tinct kinds of pencils, of variety
such that you can obtain from them
pencils for any kind of work. The
number of different grades of hard
ness of one class they manufacture
would astonish you. The quality of
their pencils are unquestionably
superior to any other.
Their address is Dixon Graphite

POPULAR INSTITUTIONS.

Honolulu is justly proud of the
many various institutions that flour
ish in her midst; be they for educa
tional purposes, for physical devel
opment, for amusements and recrea-
lions, or for whatever purposes they
are organized; all are popular for
their own special advantages. An
institution differing somewhat from
the above, but none the less popular:
one offering greater advantages to
its many members; one that is not
confined to the city limits, but which
spreads all over the islands: an in
stitution that, as soon as its doors
were opened, was besieged by multi
.tudes anxious to join; and which is
daily growing more popular with all
classes, is the II. T. WIcHMAN WATCH
CLUB. The unbounded success of
these clubs in the few months since
they sprang into existence, has as
tonished even the skeptical into the
belief that there was something
worth joining after all. Just the
putting away Of small part of
your spare cash, brings you, in a
few short months, something worth
having and having joined for. An
other thing not generally known by
the uninitiated, is the fact that if
you already possess a good watch,
you are at liberty to select anything
desired of the same value. Is there
anything offering greater advan-
tages than the III. f. WIcHMAN
WATCH CLUB? d&W
