SAY ED!

What is saved? Your money and
valuable papers, by providing yourself
with reliable Safe. Not simply an iron
box, stuffed with Kakaako sand, but a
trustworthy Safe, lined with steam-gene.
rating cement. Such Safe will carry your
treasures safely through fire.
The HALLS PATENT SAFE always
protects, both against the fier9 elements
and foot-pads. Throw the money intend
ed for the purchase of another make of
safe, into Pearl Harbor, and do not sus-
tain far greater loss by trusting your
property in an inferior, and therefore
dangerous Safe.
1t costs money to make good Safes; it
costs money to make good augar, but a
very cheap article is likely to contain
some sand in its composition.

Mr.. EDITOR: The above clipping
certainly affords food for reflection.
Here is a manufacturing town
about half the size of Honolulu,
which has only two policemen, no
Jails or prisons, no criminals, no
lunatics, six churches, twenty-four
school teachers, NO RUM SHOPS; and
to the latter fact is attributed the
improved state of morals in Pull
man over the rum-cursed towns of
Illinois. My criticism on the above
state of facts as compared with
Honolulu, is, we would not be
justified in reducing our police and
other peace officers to a proportion
ate number as used in Pullman,
even should strong drink be
abolished here, as opium and some
other evils we suffer here may not
have existed there. But if
SNANA6 NhAAih was dDOIlSuGu from
Honolulu, one-half of the evils
we now suffer would cease,
and the people would be as we'll
protected with one-half the present
number of policemen as they are
now with the whole number, and
OF course a corresponding reduction
in crime, jails, prisons, criminal
courts, judges, prosecuting attor-
neys, witnesses, etc.
In view of the passage of the bills
now before the Legislature for the
increase of rum shops and licensing
gambling dens, ETC., will it not be
well for the Attorney-Ge and
Marshal to be prepared to meet the
great increase of crime which must
follow the passage of these bills, as
such are crime breeders.

tic winter, writes Frederick Schwatka
In Chicago Inter Ocean. that the intense
cold set in just before Christmas, the
thermometer sinking down to 65 ana Us
degrees below zero. and never getting
getting above 60 below. We were having
very hard time with our sleighing along
the river. Our camps at night almost in
sight of those we had left in the morn
ing, SO close We're they together and So
slowly did we labor along. Reindeer on
which we were relying for our daily
supply of food were not found near the
river. but some being seen some ten or
fifteen miles back from it, determi le,t
TO leave the river and strike straight
across country for Hudson's bay. We
had gone but three or four
days. and as we assembled the
higher levels the thermometer com
menced lowering. and on the Sd of jan
uary reached II deg below zero. the
coolest we experienced in our Sledge
Journey OF nearly Il year in length, and
the coolest. l believe, ever encountered
that day we moved our camp fully
twelve miles. The day was not at all I'M
pleasant, either must say. until along
toward night, when Il slight breeze
sprang up. 1t was the mereSt kind of
zephyr, and would hardly have stirred
the leaves on tree at home. but slight
as it was 1t cut to the bone every part of
the body exposed to it. This. fortu-
natelY, was only the face from the eye

it as much as possible, and especially
after we had reached camp and
were at work making our Snow-hOuSeS
and digging through the thick ice for
water. After all, it is not so much the
intensity of the cold as expressed in de-
gresS on the thermometer that deter
mines the unpleasantneSS OF an Arctic
winter as is the force and direction OF
the wind, for have found it far pleas
anter with the thermometer at even 70
degrees below zero. with little or no
wind blowing, than to face a rather stiff
breeze when the little indicator showed
even 80 deg warmer temperature.
Even white man, acclimated to Arctic
weather, and facing strong wind at 20
or 30 deg below zero, is almost sure to
freeze the nose and cheeks. and the
thermometer. does not have to go many
degrees lower to induce the Eskimo
themselves to keep within their snug
snow houses under the same
circumstances, unless absolute need
of food forces them outside. 1t is one
of the consOling things about Arctic
weather that the intensely low tempera-
lures are almost always accompanied

were few exceptions to this general
rule OF quiet weather with extreme cold,

were simply terrible. Early one morn

time we were out, although it seemed to
us it must be at least so degrees colder.
