A CONTEMPORARY PARALLEL.

BY a rather mean method the
Cabinet of South Australia was re-
Gently ousted. The ex-Premier and
leader of the opposition arose and
off-handedly uttered a wish that
someone would move adjournment
in order to show the Cabinet that it
was not wanted. Mr.. Kingston took
the hint and made the motion, which
carrying caused the resignation of
the Cabinet. The small part Of the
business is that motion to adjourn
being not debatable the Cabinet had
no opportunity of defense against
the assault. Mr.. Kingston is ruff
fan who had previously sent a re-
volver with a challenge to an honor
able member, but he was notwith-
standing sent for to form new
Cabinet. The trouble in South
Australia is, Judging by comments
on the recent incident in the Sydney
Herald, that no single party receives
strength enough from the people to
ensure its holding power. This was
exactly the difficulty in the late Ha-
waiian Legislature. The observation
of the Herald on the South Austria
lian crisis is, therefore, very apt in
application to the Hawaiian stu
alton, namely, eff the country has
not deemed it right to send to Parlia-
ment sufficient number of one way
of thinking to give stable govern
ment, the country has to bear the
consequences" Hawaii is bearing
the consequences - bitter conse-
quences. They are rendered all the

ments sent to the world as to their
causes, attributing them to the sys-
tenn of government which has been
overthrown by violence, instead Of

Photos of Maunaloa.

Gonsalves g. Silva, photographers,
have on view at their studio, Fort
street, series of photos taken by
Mr.. Silva, one of the hardy band of
mountaineers who lately scaled the
heights of Mauna Loa. Two of the
views were taken at the top of the
mountain, looking into the crater.
The appearance of the crater, judg-
ing by the photo, is not unlike that
of Kilauea. One of the photos shows
a small volume of smoke issuing
from the ground. The foreground
of another of the pictures is taken
up with a group of 10 men. includ,

German

The majority of well-read phys
icians now believe that Consump-
ton is germ disease. In other
words, instead of being in the con-
stitution itself it is caused by innu-
merable small creatures living in the
lungs having no business there and
eating them away as caterpillars do
the leaves of trees.
A Germ The phlegm that is

gnawed off and destroyed. These
little bacilli, as the germs are called,
are too small to be seen with the
naked eye, but they are very much
alive just the same, and enter the
body in our food, in the air we
breathe, and through the pores OF
the skin. Thence they get into the
blood and finally arrive at the lungs
where they fasten and increase with
frightful rapidity. Then German
Syrup comes in, loosens them, kills
them, expells them, heals the places
they leave, and so nourish and

The Supreme Court, by Chief JUS
tice Judd, has rendered unanimous
decision in the case of Yuen Lung e.
Co., plaintiffs in error, VS.. John
Burke, defendant in error. Burke
obtained judgment in the District
Court against Yuen Lung, & Co., on
a promissory note for $3.50 and inte-
rest, made by See Lee and endorsed
by Yuen Lung & Co. in blank, that
is, before it was endorsed by the
payee. Yuen Lung & Co. claimed
it was an error to hold them respon-
sible as first endorsers without Civ
ing them notice of non-payment be-
fore suing. "The crucial point in
this case" say the Court, ''is whether
Yuen Lung & Co. by placing their
name on the back of the note be-
came prin,a .fdcie joint promissors OF
makers with See Lee, or whether
they are prin,a facie endorsers."
They find the authorities are di-
vided on the question, therefore de-
eide it in accordance with the prac-
tice which has been in vogue in this
business community. Yuen Lung &
Co. are declared to have been first
endorsers and so entitled to notice
and demand. There being no evi,
dence of notice and demand, the
Court find "it was error to have rem
dered judgment for the defendant
in error, and the judgment is re.
versed with COSTS" A. S. Hartwell

POOR OLD OPIUM USERS.

the District Magistrate.

A posse of police officers made a
raid on the Tong Hing Society the
other day and cleaned out a den of
Chinese opium fends. Some of the
Cinnamon were SO infrm that it was
with great difficulty they we're taken
to the Station. At the Station two
were found to be so weak that they
were put in a hack and sent back.
The other five were locked up. They
we're old men and addicted to the
use of opium. In the District Court
the men were found guilty and judg
ment was reserved until this morn
ing, when sentence was suspended
by Judge Foster until moved on by
the prosecution. The men were
also released on their own recog-
nizances. This was in order to give
them chance to find some friends
who would aid them in getting out
of the country.

Art dealers do not sell Fischer
Ranges but we do, and we also
offer you a very pretty sketch
in water colors by Barn6eld.
We do not handle art goods
because they do not belong to
the hardware trade. This pic
ture we mention was left with
us to sell and the person who
buys it has something that will
grow more valuable as the
years roll on. King Bros. tell
you they do not sell Fischer
Ranges-they tell you so be-
cause they have probably had
customers for their excellent
bits by celebrated artists and
who quite naturally wanted a
choice article for ahe kitchen
as we'll as the parlor. King
Bros. sell the Art Goods and
we rustic with Stoves. Ranges,
Hardware and Aermotors.
We've had inquiries time
and again for metal polish
that won't scratch metals. In
years gone by "Putz Pulver'
was the favorite; there were
some objections to it and the
manufacturers improved upon
it until now they have a liquid
polish that beats anything of
the kind this side of Egypt,
where they don't use polish.
For bicycles we know of moth
ing better because there is ab-
solutely no danger of scratch
ing the nickel. 1t will polish
brass, silver, gold or a bald
head, and we sell it for twenty
cents a tin. The manufac-
turers call it "Putz Liquid" )"
and we presume the name will

else.
Our "ad' writer was in
error the other day about the
Cutlery. The lot we received
was not suitable for ladies but
was of the cheap sort-the
good ones are yet to arrive
and we look for them daily.
We mention this so that you
will continue using the old one
a little while longer. When
ours arrive you can get just
what you've been looking for.
Hose Reels again; the last
we received are superior to
the others, stronger and better
in every way. You cannot
help wanting one if your de-
sire is to economise in hose,
and if you want one you will
probably get it.
The dove season has arrived
and the merry sportsman can
save several days butcher bill

will remember that our Cart

lodged by every one who
handles a gun to be better and
