The Peninsula of
Pearl City!

This truly enchanting location for sub
urban homes must be seen to be appre-
ciated; a lovely grove of algeroba trees
covers the entire grounds, streets 80 feet
in width are laid out, and 6-inch pipes
are being laid to conduct water from a
10-inch artesian we'll which is pro-
nounced by McCandless Bros. to flow
the sweetest water of all the wells they
have bored on this island The Railway
Co. have constructed two reservoirs with
storage capacity of over two million
gallons, and built fume extending 80
miles into Waiawa Valley, which in
years OF ordinary rainfall will supply an
abundance of pure water for large
population; to guard against such
droughts as we have experienced during
the present year, the Company have Or
dered Blake Pump with capacity of
100000 gallons per day, which will be
replaced by one or more of larger capa
city when needed. This pump now due
from the manufacturers will be placed at
once at the artesian we'll from which
water will be forced into the reservoirs,
when not supplied from the mountains.
A block containing an area o. five
acres has been reserved for a Hotel, and
another beautiful lot of the same area is
also reserved for Public Park, which
the Company propose to make one of the
most delightful and attractive resorts to
be found anywhere.
This place has all the charms of Wal
kiki, with the addition of an inland sea
seven miles long and four miles wide,
affording boating and yachting facilities
second tn none in tho world =
Pearl City is situated about halfway
between the extreme eastern and west
ern points of Pearl Harbor. The makai
end of Pearl City Peninsula points to
the entrance of the harbor, and is destined
some day (not so remote as some people
may think to be the great commercial
emporium of the Pacific. The Pearl
City Branch Of the Company's line ex-
tends down the centre of the Peninsula
within say 1000 feet of the shore on
either side.
10 Intending purchasers are in
vlted by the 0. r. & L. Co. to call at NV
office for free tickets and maps of Pearl
City.
The Company will bind themselves
in the deed to carry purchasers. their
families and servants for term OF nine
years from date of purchase at ~ cents
per mile first class, and l cent per mile
second-class. Those who build on their
lots within IL months from date of pur-
| chase will thereby secure reduction
from the above rate, for the whole time,
OF say 70 per cent, making the fare each
way 10 cents frst-class and 10 cents
| second-class.
This rare spot of earth is quite limited
in area, and those who would secure a
lot valuable now but destined in the near
future to be worth many times its pres
ent value, will be wise to improve their
present opportunity.

a dispatch from Washington an
nounces that the Pacific naval squadron
is to be increased. Secretary Tracy has
decided to send the Yorktown from the
squadron of evolution around the Horn
for permanent station on the Pacific
Coast, and the Petrol to the Asiatic sta
ton, via the Suez Canal. The Enter
prise will be assigned to the Naval
Academy as training ship for cadets.

result: James c. Blaine, 639; Benjamin

A new magazine gun, which prom
ises to revolutlonize naval and land
warfare has been tested at Chicago. The
rife becomes automatic by the utiliza-
ton of the gas produced by the combus-
ton of the first cartridge fired. The gas
escapes into a close chamber and acts on
a piston that is set against a spiral
spring, the recoil of which acts upon
mechanism which removes the empty
cartridge, replaces it with a new one
and cocks the gun. This is done with
such rapidity that if one pulls the trigger
fast enough it will discharge nine shots
in two seconds. 1t is intended to apply
the principle to naval guns for use in re-
polling torpedo boats.

year drinking water every
where becomes impure from
different causes, and frequent
" disease follows its use. The
water here is no exception
not even that taken from arte-
sian wells. If you take a drop
of water and place it under a
powerful microscope you will
see more snakes than an anti
prohibitionist would see after
a prolonged spree. If you
drink ordinary water, fresh
from the taps, you take these
snakes, or whatever they are,
into the stomach, and then
trouble follows: Snakes won't
assimilate with plain every
day food, and the physicians
fee is so much per visit-good
fellows these physicians; it's
their medicines that are I'M
pleasant, and none of us like
to taste of bitter things when
we can get a chance at the
sweets. Now then, to remedy
the trouble bad water has
caused, and prevent disaster
in the future-get a Filter.
You want the best and we
have it. Nothing equals a
Gate City Stone Filter to puri-
fly bad water. It's all natural
stone and nothing to get out
of order. Don't think because
you are drinking artesian
water that there's no bugs in
it. There are and you've got
to filter it to make it pure.
How often do you sweep
your carpets; one, two Or three
times a day? The oftener you
sweep the sooner you have to
get new ones. The best of
carpets are not made of iron
and the more you sweep the
thinner they get. Sweeping
takes the nap off. Have you
ever tried a Carpet Sweeper ;
one of those arrangements
with brushes, that you push
over the floor once and then
sit down and smile at the ease
with which you have done
what everyone who don't use
them growls about? No
blisters on the hands ; no
backache; nothing but an easy
push and a clean floor. We
haven't many, but what there
are are good.
An article that has become
almost a necessary ornament
in a we'll furnished parlor is an
Easel. There are some per
feet gems of art in Honolulu
and one cannot always get a
wall space where there is a
good light. An easel may be
placed in any corner and you
can hardly miss the light. We
have metal Easels in oxydized
silver Or imitation of it that
looks better than wood, and
they are better in styles. Buy
one, throw a scarf over the
top and then place your Tav.

If you have any brand new
babies around the house, you
should have an alcohol Lamp
on which to heat milk for it,
Young babies have a fashion
of calling for meals at unusual
hours; and it's too much work
to make a fire in a stove lust
to heat a little milk. Nearly

Grass and Its Mission.

Next In Importance to the divine
profusion of water, light and air
those three physical facts which rem
der existence possible, may be reck-
oned the universal benehcence Of
grass. Lying in the sunshine, among
the buttercups and dandelions OF
May, scarcely higher in intelligence
than minute tenants of that mimic
wilderness, our earliest recollections
are of grass; and when the fitfui
fever is ended and the foolish wran-
gle of the market and the forum is
closed, grass heals over the scar
which our descent into the bosom of
the earth has made, and the carpet of
the infant becomes the blanket of the
dead.
Grass is the forgiveness of Nature
her constant benediction. Fields
trampled with battle, saturated with
blood, torn with the ruts of cannon,
grow green again with grass and
carnage is forgotten. Streets aban-
doned by traffic become grass-grown
lanes, and are obliterated. Forests
decay, harvests perish, flowers van
ish, but grass Is immortal. Belea-
guered by the sudden hosts of winter !.
it withdraws into the impregnable
forest of its su bterranean vitality, and
energies upon the solicitation Of
spring. Sown by the winds, by
wandering birds, propigated by the
subtle horticulture of the elements
which are its ministers and servants,
1t softens the rude outlines of the
world. It evades the solitude OF des-
erts, climbs the inaccessible slopes
and pinnacles of mountains, modi-
fies the history, character and des-
tiny of nations. Unobstrusive and
patient, 1t has immortal vigor and
aggression. Banished from the thor
oughfare and field 1t bides its time
to return, and when vigilance is re-
laxed, or the dynasty has persisted,
it silensly resumes the throne from
which it has been expelled, but which
IL never abdicates. II bears no bla-
zonry of bloom to charm the senses
with fragrance or splendor, butts its
homely hue is more enchanting than
hn lilU s-fa
fruit in earth or air, yet should its
harvest fail for single year, famine
would depopulate the world.
