How to Clean Plush.

Get some turpentine and pour It over
the grease spot and rub it very gently
until quite dry with piece Of soft clean
flannel. When dry, brush the piles ur
and hang the article in the open air.
That plush may be cleaned is fact of
interest. Children's plush coats that
have become soiled can be cleaned with
out injury By delicately sponging with a
little borax and water. A teaspoonful
OF powdered borax to quart of water is
the proper proportion. Use very soft

The readers of this paper will be pleased
to learn that there is at least one dreaded
disease that science has been able to cure in
all its stages and that is catarrh. Halls
Catarrh Cure is the only positive cure now
known to the medical fraternity. Catarrh
being constitutional disease requires a
constitutional treatment. Halls Catarrh
Cure is taken internally and acts directly
upon the blood and mucous surfaces of the
sy stem, thereby destroying the foundation
of the disease and giving the patient strength
by building up the constitution and assist
ing nature in doing its work. The pro-

powers that they offer ONE HUNDRED Doll
LARS for any case that it fails to cure.

The Emperor's Birthday.

Friday was the birthday OF
the Emperor of Germany, and it
was as usual generously celebrated
at the Imperial Consulate. Cap
tain Wiltse with his officers, men,
bers of the diplomatic corps, almost
the whole Provisional Government,
including Commander Soper and
the rest of the military chieftains,
with a large number of business
men, were Mr.. Glade's guests. The
young Kaiser's health was drunk
several times in foaming cham
payne, after which the company
partook of a delicious lunch, where
nothing good was left unrepre-
sented.

Honor to Whom Honor is Dine.

Honor TO Whom Honor is Due.
Mr.. EDITOR. Amid the shame
less bribery and treachery that
marked the closing days of the
late legislative session, four native
Hawaiians stood firm as rock
against lavish offers of every kind,
specious appeals to race feeling,
the pressure of the Honolulu popu-
lace, and even the personal inhu-
ence of the then sovereign.
While others went home loaded
with the rewards of infamy, they
returned poor in pocket but rich in
honor.
These brave and honest men
deserve more public recognition
than they have received. Their
names are Hon. ]. Kauhane, No
bic from Kau; Hon. ]. II. Wal
puilani, Representative from North
Kona; Hon. Iosepa from Hama,
and Hon. A. Kauhi from Eva and
Waianae.
No member of any Hawaiian
legislature can show a more con-
sistent and honorable record than
Hon. ]. Kauhane.
To him and his three worthy
colleagues may be applied the
words of Millions encomium on
Abdeil:
faithful found
Among the faithless, faithful only
they.
Among innumerable false unmoved,
mistaken, unseduced, unterrified.
Nor number nor example with them
wrought
To swerve from truth or change their
constant mind.

MOONLIGHT COLLISION.
The Kilauea Hon Rammed by
the Hawaii.

The steamers Kilauea Hou and
Hawaii, both of Wilder & Co.'s
line of steamers, collided at II
o'clock on Thursday night in the
channel, between Lanai and Molo-
kai. both vessels carrying head
lights. The night was calm, moon
light Illuminating the surface OF
the sea for miles around.
The Hawaii was on her way to
Maui, and the Kilauea Hou was
returning to Honolulu with 1000
bags of sugar and 80 head of cattle
on deck. The chief officer of the
Kilauea Hou was on duty on deck,
while the captain and a part of the
crew were sleeping below. When
the two vessels collided the force of
the conclusion threw the men out
of their hunks, and in a few min
utes they were all on deck to find
out what was the matter. Some
thought that their vessel had run
aground, while others supposed she
had run against the Molokai cliffs.
Nobody could tell how or where
the Kilauea Hou was struck by
the Hawaii. The rigging on the
port side was slightly damaged.
The bow, however, sustained
the greatest injury, it being
ripped clear down from the
bowsprit to near the keel, several
feet below the water-line. A por-
ton of her cargo, 500 bags of sug-
ar, was moved aft so as to tighten
the fore part of the vessel, and the
big cracks under the bow were
covered up with canvas to keep
the water out. Captain Fitzgerald
ran his vessel into Kaunakakai to
finish patching up the damaged
part with canvas, after which he
returned to Honolulu. He report
ed his vessel dry and the cargo
safe. 1t is the opinion of many
that had the Kilauea Hou had her
full cargo nothing would have kept
her ahoat. After the collision the
Hawaii resumed her voyage to Oh
owalu, and appeared to be unin-
jured except perhaps a few scrat-
ches.

SIXTEEN PICS.
A Luau for Kahunas TO Make
Them CHESS.

Them CHESS.
The other day a peculiar bundle
was found in the bay by native.
1t was hauled on a dock and
opened, and, much to the surprise
of the assembled multitude, it was
found to contain a mixture of
things that clearly stamped the
person who threw the bundle over
board as one of the gentry known
as kahunas.
Kahunaism, as everybody knows,
is form of superstition INDUCED
in by natives, both high and low,
and, for the benefit of strangers, it
may be mentioned that the pack
age was thrown overheard to the
shark-god, who is supposed to have
digestive powers as hearty as the
blow of a trip-hammer. The idea
was to put a hoodoo" on the new
Government, but this time it did
not succeed.
Kahunas had what is termed a
very soft snap" when this coun-
try had the doubtful distinction of
a lettering throne. Many of them
used to eat at the palace and alto
gether led merry existence until
the Provisional Government took
the affairs of the country in hand.
As result they lost a good board
ing house and if something did
not turn up mighty quick they
would either have to learn trade
or else seek work on the docks.
The last resort did not strike them
in a favorable way because the
doctors all agree that they are too
strong to work.
But the Kahunas are in clover
again for the present at any rate,
as it was learned Thursday that
the ex-Queen had summoned six of
the clan and a big meeting was
held in a private house in this city.
A genuine Hawaiian feast was
served, and one of the items on
the bill of fare was sixteen roast
pigs. Sixteen roast pigs divided
between six Kuhanas no doubt
was enough food to warrant the
giver to expect a favorable
answer to her anxious inquiries
about regaining a lost throne and
big fat salary, and other things too
numerous to mention, and it is
presumed in the absence of any
definite information that the ka-
hunas answered Eyes" in every in
This story is padded out just a
little, but as a matter of fact the
was said to be present at
a private house Thursday to con-
suit with several kahunas about
her lost throne. A big luau was
given at the same time.

THE NEW LINE.
Manager Simpson Working lard
on the Scheme.

Manager Simpson Working Hard
on the Scheme.
w. E. Simpson, manager of the
new Puget Scandinavian Steam
ship line, is expected in the city
tomorrow, says the Port Town
send Leader. Mr.. Simpsons visit
will be in the interest of the steam
ship line and for the purpose of
learning what substantial promise
of business for this line he may
secure in Port Townsend. Upon
the results of his inquiries among
our merchants will depend the de-
cision as to whether the steamers
will make Port Townsend one of
its regular ports of call. In this is
afforded an opportunity for our
merchants to handle and control
the products of the surrounding
country, finding for them ready
and profitable market. Trade re-
lations must be established and
maintained between Hawaiian and
Port Townsend merchants, and the
general benefits of the opening of
this new avenue of business must
necessarily be widespread and ma
terial.
Mr.. Simpson SAYS he has placed
a cargo of HOO tons of the pro-
ducts of Washington for this first
trip, and has also secured return
cargo from the islands. He thinks
the line will probably lose money
for the first year, as it will take
time to build up a profitable trade,
in view of the opposition
from San Francisco.
