ject offers, is ;1.e tobacco nuisance.
The topic is a delicate one for the
extent of the nuisance cannot be
adequately set forth without offence
to the susceptibilities of our read
ers without, in short, reminding
them of their daily tramcar jour
neys, a thing We would not do for
worlds. Regulations against smok-
ing in street cars are made and en-
forced in all parts of the world
except in Honolulu. The failure
to make them and enforce them
here would seem to indicate an ut
ter want of consideration for the
feelings of ladies and indeed an ut
ter absence Of any intention or de-
sire to make the cars something
which ladies, or for that matter
gentlemen either, can patronize.
Those who criticize the manage
ment of the line most severely in
this particular are by no means
blind to the difficulty of making
street cars clean and inviting in
city whose population is so miscel-
laneously assorted as that of Homo
lulu. The character of the popu-
lation makes it all the more i'm
perative to neglect no means of
keeping the cars decently clean
and comfortable, and making them
as pleasant as possible. A very
moderate outlay in. brooms would
bring large return in patronage
and popularity. Until our assorted
miscellany of males can be pre-
vailed upon to use only the choicest
Havana, the smoker should be
banished to the rear platform and
kept there. 1t is no disgrace to be
poor, and poor people are just as
much entitled to a preference for
fresh air and cleanliness as the
millionaires who fare sumptuously,
and are never seen in a street car.
Let the managemeif cater little
to this portion of the public.

-~!LOST IN A HURRICANE.

Vessels Go Down With All
Aboard on the Madagascar
Coast.
PARIS, March 6.-News of hur-
ricane at Tamatay on the east
coast of Madagascar, on February
22d, has been received to-day. The
wind came from the sea and first
struck the vessels near the mouth
of the bay. The Alsino, French
ship, was stripped almost instantly
of masts and rigging and a few
minutes later went to the bottom
with all on board. Five coasting
vessels anchored within the har-
Dor, foundered almost simultane-
ously, and but ten of their crews
were saved. In Tamatay the
streets were swept clean of people
and vehicles in minute. Twenty
two of the best buildings in the
place and a large number of huts
were wrecked. The roof of the
custom house was carried away
and the walls were crushed in.
The British Consulate was demo
lished and four sugar factories
were leyeled to the ground. Many
lives were lost.

a CLERICAL LIQUOR-SELLER
How a Preacher is Fighting the
Devil with Firewafer.

The clergyman who has started
public house is certainly doing
very sensible thing; he recognizes
that the Biblical saying, "A little
wine for the stomach's sake" is not
to be interpreted after the manner
of teetotal saint, who said that it
meant for outward application
only. The divine only allows the
men who visit his house of enter
tainment to drink enough, beyond
that they must not go, or else they
are passed along to a department
where amusements are tried as an
antidote.
Furthermore, mine host, who
serves guests by proxy, only sells
sound meat and drink, which will
not harm his customers. The re-
suit is, that sobriety in the neigh
borhood has increased, and the
clergyman, being repaid for his ex-
penditure, intends to add to his
inn an athletic ground as a further

A PLEA FOR COCOA.


Under the above title, Mr.. ID. Ii.
Hitchcock of Hilo writes letter to
the Planters Monthly for March,
urging upon the attention of the
public the possible future of cocoa
in this country. Mr.. Hitchcock
claims that the cocoa tree -four
ishes in this country, and as an
instance cites fine tree in his
vineyard, which is now bearing
handsomely. At his country place
Booganville," which is situated
on the edge of the woods about five
miles from the sea, he has 400
trees set out which are growing
very thrifty, and he proposes to
set out 1900 more before the year
is out.
The cocoa trees require very
little care, and the work of picking
and preparing the seeds for market
is not laborious. It would seem
that the industry is adapted to be
followed as subsidiary to coffee
culture, as the crop does not come
in until the picking season is over.
and the drying house for coffee
could also be used to dry the cocoa
beans.
Mr.. Hitchcock estimates re.
turn per acre of about $3.50 annu.
ally, based upon the present price
of cocoa in the London market
His experiments are on a scale
large enough to give the industry
very fair test, and they will be
followed with attention by all who
are interested in the commercial
development of Hawaii.

Mr.. EDITOR [ was much pleased
to notice from an item in this morn
ing's ADVERTISER that a proposition
is on foot looking towards the dec
grafton Of our beautiful city in
honor of the coming Commission.
1t seems to me that this would be
not only eminently proper, but I'M
der the circumstances almost
necessary. I am sure every Ameri-
can in this city will be only too
glad to do everything in his power
to do honor to the distinguished
gentlemen who are on their way to
visit US.
And why should not the Ha-
waiian people drop their political
differences for a brief spell and
join with us in giving a hearty
welcome to the coming Commits
sion? Are they not the guests of
the nation? Without entering into
the political issue at all, have they
not come here at the invitation of
the Provisional Government, the
only one now in existence here, or
likely to be, until annexation is
completed? I submit to all good
citizens of the Hawaiian Islands,
and of Honolulu in particular,
shall we not do honor to ourselves
as nation by honoring the coming
Commission? And I would sug-
gest in this connection that what
ever decorations be made should
be made with a view of lasting
while the Commissioners are here,
Let every man who has fag-no
matter of what Acknowledgements
it on the arrival of the Commission
and keep it raised until their de-
parture.
The Government of the United
States has done US a great honor
in sending us a Commission com
posed of three of its most eminent
citizens. No one ranks higher in
the United States Army than
Major General Schofield,s and
no better representative o.
the United States Navy
than Admiral Brown could have
been selected. In ex-Congressmar
Blount, who, as chairman of the
House Committee on Foreign
Affairs for several sessions of Con
gress, has had a vast and varied
experience in matters relating tt
the foreign policy of the United
States and international affairs gen
orally, an experience second only
to that of his lamented friend
Secretary Blaine, we have typica
American statesman whose greatest
/ desire is to promote the welfare o
the human race and, of course, tina
of his own nation in particular.
| Hawaii has been honored above
all nations by President Cleveland
appointing such a commission a!
his representatives to US. Leaving
politics aside, should we not al
join, irrespective of rank, national
ity and party, in doing honor t.
these gentlemen on their own mer
its and standing in the United
States, outside of other and para
mount considerations?
Mr.. Editor, there can be but one
answer to these questions: Homo
lulu must put on her gala attire a
once and keep on her fnery durinI
the stay of the Commission. l
the business men will take the in
itiative I am sure that private citi
zens will not be backward, and tina
the Commission will be socially en-
tertained as we'll as our own ha
lately been across the water. LIE
us not forget that in doing honor t
our guests we gain some honor oul
