TUG-OF-WAR!
The Contests of Saturday NIGHT
Are Not Voted Success.

The tug of-war wound up last Sat-
urday night after very successful
run of five nights. This tournament
created more interest than any other
public event that has ever taken
place in Honolulu. People went
night after night to cheer for their
favorites, and are now glad it is over,
so they can have some quiet and re-
cover from the hoarseness contracted
while yelling at the gymnasium.
The pulls that took place Saturday
evening were uninteresting. The
most of the contestants were in a sore
and crippled condition, and went
through the tugs without any appar-
ent life. The attendance was as large
as the preceding evenings, despite the
street rumors to the effect that two of
the teams would not contest.
The first pull scheduled was to be
between Portugal and Scotland. The
latter team did not make their APP
pearance and the former were award
ed the pull.
The next tug was between America
and Germany. Each team pulled
with five men, and the former won in
half an hour, much to the relief of the
tired Germans.
Scotlands non-appearance gave the
next bout to England.
Portugal and America contested
next; the latter team had some
trouble in getting sufficient men to
pull, and finally did so after keeping
the tired audience some length of
time. Portugal won in about fifteen
minutes.
Hawaii was to pull Scotland; they
took the tug by default.
The prizes were then awarded. Ha-
wall was handed $125 in gold for first
place, after which the audience gave
them three rousing cheers. England
received SIS for second place. The
third prize of $50 was not awarded, for
the reason that three teams were tie,
viz: America, Germany and Portu-
gal. It is not expected that they will
tug again, and that the prizes will be
equally divided between the three
teams.
There is some talk of benefit to be
arranged for the various teams on
Tuesday evening at the gymnasium.
The following is the result of the

THE GERM DESTROYER.

In the field of discovery and in
ventlon, medicine has not kept pace
with surgery. That, perhaps, is
natural; service surgery is the me-
chanicll branch of medicine. The
general acceptance OF the germ the
DRY of disease, however, opens a new
field for medicine, and will take it
completely away from the medieval
superstitions that still cling to it's
skirts. And yet medicine is not
without its discoveries. 1t has long
been known, and the fact is now
recognized wherever the test has
been made, that Swift's Specific 6.
s. s. will destroy the germs of ma
larial disease, themicrobes of skin
disease, and the bacilli of contagious
and other forms of blood poisoning,
elects them from the blood, and
purifies and builds up the system.
No medical discovery Of our day has
achieved such remarkable success.

Some gland truths are expressed
in the following words: Since the
war the South has expended $685.
$4,000 to educate its colored peo-
pie, and to an individual, they are
productive. More than a million
of the children are now attending
schools. The North can make no
better showing with its white pupils.
The actual wealth of the South is
estimated at nine billions, seven
hundred and fifty-one millions, not
counting odd hundreds of thousands
of dollars. The cotton yield in ten
years has been 5000, 1886, 900, and
its movement in bringing our gold
back from Europe has perhaps more
than once saved the United States
from Financial disaster. Yet men
like Hoar would, if they could,
handicap this magnificent country.

Is BEAUTY A BLESSING |?

riority of any kind. In a marriage
they have frequently made failures;
why, / do not know, unless the pos
session of great loneliness is incom-
patible with the possession of an
equal amount Of good judgment. So
much is expected by the woman ac-
customed to admiration, that she
plays an@palters with her fate till
tie crooked stick is all that is left
her. This we see exemplified again
and again. While the earnest, lofty,
sweet smiling woman of the pale
hair and doubtful line OF nose, has,
perhaps, one true lover whose worth
she has time to recognize, an ac-
knowledged beauty will find herself
surrounded by crowd of snowy
cyclists whose admiration so dazes
and bewilders her that she is some.

Then the incentive to education

Telegraph advices from Tennessee
tell of girl at the town of Milan
who encouraged two rival sutton for
her hand and amorous favor TO fight
a fisticuff bout to decide which
should have her hand which she
should accept. Apparently there
was no feeling involved. Personal
qualities and mental traits were of
far less important than an access of
physical strength and remorseless
brutality. In that view of the case
an over-grown bulldog or a vicious
jackass would probably have suited
her taste better than either of the
combatants, and the one who got
her was really to be pitied if it were
not that his tendency was equally
depraved. Love is reduced to brute
passion in that way.
