From Natures storehouse

II stands to reason that a medicine
which will destroy the germs Of contag
ieus blood poison and counteract the eff
fecis Of mercurial poisoning may be de-
pended on to overcome the diseases tina t
have their origin in malaria, or
that have their seat in an impure
condition Of the blood. This
IS what SIS. has done. and what it
will do, as its popularity attests. As a
preventive, and remedy for the long
list of affections that display their actiy-
ity during the spring and summer
months, it stands without a rival. The
secret ot this IS that it is remedy
drawn from natures own storehouse.

A Good Suggestion.

From The Dubuque, Io1oa. Telegraph.
The adjournlng of the Impeachment
court last Saturday, on account of Gen.
Weaver's belly-ache, cost the people of
this commonwealth nearly $500. One
dose of Chamberlain Collie, Cholera
and Diarrhea Remedy, would have saw
ed this expense. And we suggest, as a
matter of economy and humanity, that
the state provide against future conhn-
gencies of this nature, by furnishing

bic remedy. % and 30 cent bottles for

HONOLULU VS.. KAMEHAMEHA.
The HanOluIus Confident OF the 1894
Championship.

The Honoluus in last Saturdays
game certainly out.batted the Kane
hameha's, but never in any part of
the match out-played them. A
pretty fair crowd was present, the
majority of which was decidedly
biased. 1t was plain to see the
crowds sympathy was with the Ho-
nolulus, even a short fly caught
bringing forth applause. The Ka-
mehamehas did not make run till
the sixth inning, when Baker and
Pahau made circuit of the bases.
In the fourth inning Mahuka, first
baseman of the Honolulu team, froze
to the ball in a pretty running catch.
There is no saying, he is the star
first baseman of the Honolulu
League. His judgment is perfect
and he is good batter,
In the second half of the fourth
inning Chas. Wilder sent sky
scraper over the left fielder's head.
In the fifth inning Makaimoku in
running for the ball interfered with
the runner, Meek. Another instance
of interfering (but in this case the
shortstop was fielding the balD oc-
Cured, when Harry Whitney inter-
fered with Makalmoku. The runner
was declared safe, decision which
is questioned by ball players. In
the seventh inning Mahuka made a
safe hit, stole second and was brought
home by Davis two-base hit. Me-
heula entered the box with the inten-
ton of annihilating the sphere. The
first ball he missed and swung around
two times, the next one he caught
fair and square with his willow and
sent it skylarking. The eyes of all
followed the ball as it scared, when,
with a mighty shout the suspense
was broken, 1.-The ball is over the
fence" The excitement at this
juncture was so great that hats,
handkerchiefs and chairs went flying
in the air. This phenomenal feat is
the first and only one made by any
player on the new grounds. Unfor-
tunately, however, that was the last
run made by the Kamehamehas. The
score at the finish stood 10 to 5 in
favor of the Honolulus. Meek
pitched for the Honolulus, and his
twirling was great up to the seventh
inning, when he lost his strength,
and was very meek to the end.
Following is the official score:

SONS OF ST. GEORGE.
Inaugural Social and Banquet of the
New Organization.

The members of the newly-organ-
lied Captain Cook Lodge, Sons of
st. George, and invited guests, num-
bering over a hundred souls, assem-
bled at the hall of Engine Co. No. l
Saturday evening. The occasion was
the inaugural banquet given by the
society to celebrate the institution of
the order here and draw all English
men together. The party was sue
cess in every way, judging by the
number of people present and the
general joviality and goodwill which
prevailed.
Mr.. Ellis was introduced to the
assemblage by Mr.. J. Saunders, pre-
sident, about 8 o'clock. Mr.. Ellis,
on behalf of the Sons Of st. George,
welcomed the visitors and guests to
the festive board, inviting all present
to make themselves feel at home,
and they, the Sons, would try to en-
terrain them in the good old English
style. They were all familiar with
the general hospitality of the English
nation and they would try to earn
the distinction in far-off Hawaii, far
away from the Old Country. Mr..
Ellis in few remarks elucidated the
aims and objects of the order.
Mr.. Jos. Tinker was the caterer
of the occasion, assisted by an eff
cient staff of walters. The board
extended from one end of the hall to
the other, and the good things on it
made the assemblage discard all shy
ness and sail into the victuals in the
good old style. Among the good
things which graced the table was
some very rare beef, which came
from New Zealand, and was brought
especially for the occasion by Mr..
johnson, delegate of the Grand
Lodge of California. After justice
had been done the eatables, long
clay pipes were passed round and an
o!d-fashioned English smoke was
INDUCED in.
Songs and recitations followed the
banquet, bringing wildly back to
mind "reminiscences of days long
gone. Mr.. Hughes favored the audi
ence with "Our jack" Mr.. Taylor
with "The Old Tin Bucket" Mr..
Barker sang "The Union Jack"
splendidly, awakening patriotic
throbs in the hearts of all present.
Mr.. R. More sang "The Anchors
Weighed" in his well-known tenor.
Mr.. j. Saunders, president, and Mr..
A. G. Fisher also gave pleasant vocal
selections. Several other members
sang songs, which were more or less
of a national character.
Her Majesty the Queen of Hawaii 8
health was drunk, and short speeches
were made by Messrs. Walter Hill,
d. Logan. johnson, G. G. Kenyon,
and the President. Guests from the
Scottish Thistle Club exchanged con-
CALCULATIONS with the Sons of st.
George. "The Press" received a
share of the donors of the evening.
The gathering was enthusiastic
throughout aud tended to show that
the society is in earnest and has come
to stay. The sons of Albion may be
well proud of their inaugural ban
quet, as 1t was grand success.

WHOLESALE SMUGGLING

Carried on by Pullman Car Conductor
for Ten Years.
WASHINGTON, June 19.-For some time
past the United States Customs author
tiles have been aware that considerable
smuggling was going on between Mon
treal and Boston. They quite recently
set a watch to discover the smuglers and
have been rewarded by making a most
important arrest, the culprit being Kill
burn j. Brown, sleeping car conductor on
the Canadian Pacific Railway between
Montreal and Boston.
The customs people say that for the
last ten years Brown has defrauded the
United States Treasury Department out
100000 by running in contraband arti-
cles of wearing apparel, opium, furs,
silks, velvets and fine goods, packages Of
which were of great value and enlarged
up rs per cent. of their real value.
Browns modus operandi was to fill
the pillow boxes with the contraband
goods and drop them at different points
of the route or to carry them direct to
Boston, where the owners would be wait
ing to receive them.
The express companies have also suf-
fered loss by packages carried. The
United States Deputy Collector at Mon
treal attaches considerable Importance to
the arrest. During his stay in Montreal
Brown put up at the best hotel and took
the greatest possible enjoyments of life.

HAGERsTowN, Nd, June 19.-News has
just been received here Of a mysterious
case Of poisoning in the village of Locust
Grove.
Daniel Shif11er, farmer, found in the
lane near his house a package of -four
and another of coffee. He sought for an
owner, and not finding one gave the ar
ticles to Mrs. McKurren. She used the
-four and her entire family were Emade
very sick. One boy died and another is
expected to die. The other members of
the family-the husband, John McKur-
rem, the wife and two children are In a
critical condition.
A post-mortem showed that poison had
been mixed with the -four.
Two years ago an attempt was made to
poison Mr.. Shiffler's stock, and year ago
his barns were burned down. The au-
thoriuies, convinced that the poisoned
flour and coffee were intended for Mr..
Shifner's family, are searching for the
miscreant among those who are known
to be at enmity with him.
