fame unknown" AS he marched
up our principal street, he neither
gazed to the right or left, and for
weeks was lost to view. AS time
wore on it was whispered around
Hilo by the giddy four hundred
that there was a duke among them
in disguise. SO a committee was
appointed to wait upon this scion
of a noble house. He was found at
the residence of one of our copper
colored six hundred a few leagues
from town, evidently happy in his
new-found love- When the COM
mittee gazed upon this long-haired,
lank and aesthetic youth, they were
utterly overcome, and all sighed
for the love of so darling and
utterly utter ducky.
All our love is all for one,
Yet that love he heedeth not;
He is coy and cares for none
Sad and sorry is our lot.
All Miserie!
This young man became the rage
with society people; 4 o'clock teas
with ice were given, but it was said
outside by the lower strata that a
gin fizz with q stick in it would be
more acceptable to this second
edition of Bunthorne:
Am / alone
And unobserved? am.
Then let me own,
Pm an aesthetic sham.
Thus appeared Lee Dow Hunts
man when he landed in HilO. For
over year this fellow was the idol
of the ladies'; 2 o'clock socials were
arranged, when this snide read
Browning, selections from Ibsen,
Tolstoi and other free and easy
authors, when he should have been
in the cane field with q hoe earning
his living.
AS happens to all of us sooner or
later, Mr.. Huntsman was taken
sick; in fact was near deaths door
when that "cursed missionary" DIR.
Wetmore, and his noble daughter
stepped in and had him carried
from one of the native houses
to their own home, and for four
weeks or more nursed this man as
only gentle hands can. And how
has he repaid it? Oh, base ingrati
tude! But why write thus: 1t is
the old, old story. Why is it that
the fair sex make so much of every
long haired tramp, be he doctor of
law, doctor of divinity or doctor of
medicine, not knowing whether
they are graduates of Yale College
or San Quentin? Sich is life.

how to find eongenial environ
ment. That the Marshal of the king
dom should be employed IN a SINH
lar manner, playing pool in a bar
room with his coat off, drinking,
and actively accessory to proposed
breach of the peace, may not, un-
happily, be a surprise, but it cannot
fail to arouse Indignation and dis
gust in the breast of every law
abiding citizen. If he has a taste
for low company be should sup
press it. 1t is a manifest breach of
propriety that the Marshal of the
Hawaiian Kingdom should consort
with bar-room loafers and men of
tainted regulations. What guar
antee can the public have under
such circumstances that the police
department will be honestly con-
Quoted? 1t is our duty as a public
journal to protest against such vul-
gar abuses. That the head Of the
police department of the entire
Kingdom should have so little
sense of what is due to his office, is
public scandal.

A BIG BLUFF.

Last night Mr.. Whaley, the
alleged tourist, was playing pool in
the Hotel bar-room with Marshal
Wilson. Both of these persons, it
is presumed, had been drinking and
had lost whatever sense they NAV
have possessed of decency and fit
ness. Mr.. Whaley made a bet with
another individual that the ADvER-
TIsER reporter would not dare enter
the bar-room of the Hotel on that
or any other night, the idea being
that Mr.. Whaley would assault him
if he did.
Now we have only a word ortwo
to say to this. That Mr.. Whaley,
who is not engaged in any respect
able business, should spend his
time in bar-rooms making ruffianly
bets will surprise no one and is no
concern of ours; 1T is a matter of
taste, or the want of it, and we
readily believe that he knows best

SIX-PAGE EDITION
THE PACTOLUS DECISION.

We publish to-day a decision by
Judge Dole, in the case of the
Pactolus Cinnamon, which will be
read with deep interest by all
classes. The statement of the facts
is somewhat condensed, but the
decision itself we reproduce in full.
The Court finds that all the char
acteristic provisions of the Chinese
Restriction Act of 80 are uncon.
stitutional and void. The decision
proceeds upon the simple ground
that the Chinese as soon as thew
arrive, and before landing, are
within the territorial jurisdiction
of the Kingdom, and therefore sub.
Ject to its laws on the one hand,
and entitled on the other to their
protection and to the benefit of the
rights guaranteed by the Constitu-
ton to all residents. Constitutional
rights cannot be waived or surren-
dered by contract. A man cannot
by agreement forfeit his liberty,
neither can he forfeit, except by
crime, his constitutional right to
free employment and residence.
The argument of the decision is
very forcible, and will lead people
generally to reflect. Should it be
sustained by the full Court, which is
by no means certain, it will have far
reaching consequences. It will add
another to the long list of wrecked
statutes with which our law books
are strewed. The Chinese ques-
ton is sunken reef on which our
most astute lawgivers have shat
tered their ships, and it now looks
as though the Act of 80 might
share the fate of its numerous pre-
decessors.

Hawaiian Hardware Co., Id
.Monday, Dec. II, 1891.

Our holiday trade this year
has exceeded that of last year
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. It pleased you and to
see you happy makes us like
wise.
This week the handsome
sets of Carvers will meet in
convention Silverware, Rock
wood and Novelties will be
present and may probably in
sist on taking an active part
but Cutlery is King. We have
tiredlyou with lengthy descrip-
ton of the various articles we
have thrown open to the pub
lie gaze during the past month
and we don't intend 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
for 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
in nickel Spice Boxes, small
but complete in the number of
boxes for every imaginable
spice; and hundreds of other
articles.
Another article in glass is the
Fish Globe. The streams of
. Honolulu produce gold fish
that pan out rich and assay a
good many dollars to the ton.
The ordinary fish globe is
not good enough for these
handsomely decorated fish so
we have imported a line in
keeping with their beauty. The
globes stand rather higher
than the old style and are
beautifully decorated at the
top. So handsome are they
that the fish will have to wear

THE building of remarkable rail-
road, running to the summit of Pixies
Peak, Will long be remembered as a
wonderful piece of engineering. This
point will now form one of the great
cente rs of attraction for tourists, who
will GLADLY take advantage of an OPP
portunity of a journey to the clouds.
The summit of Pixies Peak is one of
the highest habitable points on the
globe, being IA l47 feet above the level
of the sea, while the starting point of
the railroad is more than 112 feet
higher than the summit of Mount
Washington. Those who undertake
this journey, however, should be
cautioned to take with them suffic-
lent supply of heavy clothing, because
within a few hours the tourist will
find that he has passed through
climates of spring. summer, autumn
and winter. 1t is another triumph OF
American engineering, and will be
the subject of much comment in all
parts of the globe.
