Bare Arms at Afternoon Gatherings

The fiat has again gone forth that bare
arms shall appear at dressy afternoon
fetes as well as in the evening. The hair
will be slightly powdered, the long, close
gloves drawn off, and fair, rounded arms
will emerge from dropping lace bre-
telles, puffs and other airy draperies,
bare to and above the elbows, without
bracelets, but the fingers glittering with
. few choice rings.

A German View of the woman's Congress

Almost the entire European press has
been discussing the "woman's congress"
held in Chicago and have either ridi-
culed it's action or treated it as the harm
less play Of immature children. We are
not surprised at this. All departures
from established methods pass through
four stages. First, their significance is
underestimate, then Knocked at as a
folly, then opposed, and finally recog-
nized as right. We here in Europe are
now meeting bitter hostility. Therefore
we have passed through the first and
second stages, are now in the third, and
may assure ourselves we are approach
ing victory.-Berlin Frauenricht.

Reaction Against the Train.

The reaction from the trains of year
ago has been sharp and decided. Some
very elegant frocks are to be seen which
do not touch the ground by an inch or
so. This is desirable to understand, for
light summer dresses cut out shamefully
if worn in demitrain, and as long as it
is permissible it is certainly advisable
for all economic souls to follow this sem
sible style.-Exchange

rants and "cafes.n Nearly all the
refreshment booths in Paris were
connected with music Of some kind
or side-shows. I would hardly dare
to suggest here that a good adjunct
to Mr.. Mellis' coffee shop would be a
troup of pretty Hawaiian hula
dancers, for the mere notion of it
would horrify some people who
could not resist going to the Palace
grounds a few years ago, but looked
at the Kings hulas through the in
tervals of their extended fingers.
But, at any rate, there might not
be anything Objectionable in a troupe
of our sweet native singers, who
would prove an attractive novelty.
This, however, / shall leave to the
managers of the concern. only add
ing that the booths who made the
most money in the last Paris Ex-
hibition were not those simply con-
nected with orchestras Of lady
players, but those with genuine
Oriental dancers, almees, peris and
others of the same kind and,
above all others. the one who made
a fortune through the constant
throngs of eager crowds, was the
one who secured the show Of the
Belle Fatmah," who
won the universal prize for beauty;
and yet Fatmah was only a dane
ing girl, who very gracefully danced
a Turkish or Circassian hula, very
closely allied to the Hawaiian one,
but through her and her hula, hun
dreds of thousands of visitors were
enticed to taste Arabian coffee,
which otherwise would have re-
perfectly ignored, so that
in a very similar way Hawaiian
meles might help the Kona coffee.

A telegram from Chicago dated
the 1st instant says If the state.
ment of Commodore J. S. Skerrett
is correct, a conflict between the
Government of this country and
that of Great Britain for the pos
session of the Sandwich Islands is
not out of the range of possibilities.
The Commodore arrived at the
Palmer House to-day, en- route to
San Francisco to take charge of
the Mohican. 1T is probable he
said, that the vessel will be or
dered to Honolulu shortly, owing
to the discomfort among the in
habitants of the islands named. If
a change in the present rule is to
take place there is a strong move
ment to place the islands under
the Government of the United
States, while at the same time
there is a section which advocates
British rule. Even if a majority
expressed a desire for annexation
to the United States, it is likely
England would enter vigorous pro-
test. Already, it is reported, British
agents are on the spot endeavoring
to thwart all efforts tending toward
arrangement with America. The
of the group of islands
to each country would naturally
tend to strengthen the determine
ton of the Governments at Wash
ington and London not to yield
their claim till all the resources of |
diplomacy had been exhausted"

BISHOP MUSEUM.
One of RonoIuIu's Great At
fractions.

One of RonoIulu's Great At
fractions.
Prof W. I. Brigham, the Curator
of the Bishop Museum, has just is
sued the third part of the prelimin-
airy catalogue. This gives the num-
bers, names and uses of the various
curosities, mostly specimens in
ethnology from New Zealand, Samoa
and other Polynesian Islands, where
reside the races affiliated with the
Hawaiisns. Under separate headings
also are given lists of the collections
in the Museum from other islands Of
the Pacific, Micronesian, Melanesian
and also those from Australia. As
these are ultimately to be arranged
for permanent exhibition in the an
mex, which is now being built, the
catalogue serves to show how large a
collection the Museum has Of
inestimable value to all who may
wish to study the ethnology Of
the Pacific Ocean. 1t indicates
also in what departments there are
deficiencies, which it is much to
be hoped may hereafter be remedied
by as full and complete an exhibit as
can be found anywhere in the world.
Certain it is that the building in
which they are housed is one of great
architectural impressiveness. With
the annex now in course of erection,
there will be ample facilities for the
Curator's skill and taste in arranging
most effectively for study or for dis
play the large and priceless eollec-
ton of antiquities from all parts Of
the Pacific. The specimens of Ma
tural History shells, birds, plants,
fishes remain yet to be
arranged and catalogued.
In erecting such a building, and in
unstinted painstaking to gather to-
gether such an exhibit of the imple-
ments and clothing of the races Of
the Pacific, as we'll as its fauna and
fora, Hon. G. r. Bishop has CON
ferred an inestimable boon upon all
students Of Ethnology and Natural
History, and erected a monumental
building which will forever identify
his name with one of the great attrsc-
lions of Honolulu.

OUR FRUIT MARKET.
in Bananas at San
Francisco.

| Francisco.
Bananas brought from Hawaii
to San Francisco have in the past
had no competition, but plan lis
under consideration whereby a
competitor is to be in the field,
says the San Francisco Chronicle.
The rival halls from the United
States of Colombia, by way of New
Orleans, and has, to the extent of
two carloads, already made its
presence felt. The fruit is pro-
nounced of excellent quality and
was unloaded in fine condition. 1t
was shipped from Santa Marta,
Colombia, to New Orleans, and re-
shipped thence by rail. The first
trip required FIVE days, the second
six.
The freight per car from New
Orleans to San Francisco, Los An
geles or Portland is $3.50. The
firm of J. B. Camors of New Or
leans owns the plantations on
which the bananas grow. They
also belong to syndicate con
trolling the steamers that bring the
fruit to the Southern port. The
total cost of transportation and the
original cost is such that the Co
lombian bananas can be sold here
at $1.25 per bunch, against $1.75
for the Hawaiian article, and
the punches are much larger and
the fruit fatter. Hawaiian bana-
mas sell at the islands for rs cents
per bunch. Colombian bananas
can be purchased at Santa Marta
at 25 cents. The difference is
such in favor of the latter that
Paul v. Camors, who came through
with the initial shipment, says
in the event of the completion of
the Nicaragua canal his firm can
ship Colombian bananas to Homo
lulu and compete successfully with |
the native fruit in its own market.
Mr.. Camors has been in con-
sultation with D. G. Camarinos,
the Sansome street commission !
merchant, who will have the |
agency here. Shipments are to be
regular and as frequent as the de-
mand may necessitate.
If nothing unforeseen happens
to prevent the carrying out of the
the South American
and the centipede from
the Pacific islands will soon crawl
from punches of ripening bananas
and exchange courtesies in the
fruit stalls of San Francisco.

PARADISE IN THE PACIFIC.
The Many Attractions of the
Sandwich Islands.


Sailing for six days due south
west from San Francisco, the
steamers of the Union Steamship
Company reach Honolulu, distant
2100 miles. If you will glance at
a map of the Pacific, you will be
struck with the fact that the Sand
witch Island group looks to be a
halfway house of call for the three
great continents of North America,
Australia and Asia. The public
interest attaching to Honolulu
grows out of its position in the
commerce of the Pacific. It is
directly on the track Of vessels
sailing from our own Western ports.
When the Nicaragua Canal is COM
pleted, and there seems no doubt of
that now, all the trade of our At
lantic ports with China, Japan and
the Philippine Islands must touch
at Honolulu, either for coal and
supplies or because of the freight
that viii make such a stop profit
able.
England, ever ready to seize
upon the key positions of the
globe. has long looked with covet-
Gus eyes upon the Sandwich ISL
ands, and but for fear of complica-
tons with America she would
have annexed them long ago by
the usual process of hosting the
union jack and saluting it. The
Sandwich Islands are destined to
grow in Importance, and as their
nearest neighbor is the United
States, and Americans are the
dominant power'in the local gov
eminent, the people naturally look
to our country for that protection
which even the stupidest native
must see they are unable to afford
themselves.
The United States has been
opposed to the purchase or annex
alton of territory not contiguous to
our own boundaries, though in
1867 we made an exception in the
case of Alaska, which as whole
is further than the Sandwich Isl
ands. In the latter case there
only intervenes an unobstructed
ocean. In the case Of Alaska the
British possessions on the north
west interpose.
In its growing Importance the
Hawaiian group has absolutely no
competitor. North of the equator
and between America and Asia, it
is the only land in that vast ex-
panse; tits the only place at which
a ship can touch in an area about
as large as the whole continent of
North America. A Pacific tele-
graph line must inevitably follow
the opening Of the Nicaragua Ca
nal, and in the tremendous stretch
of 1890 miles between Nicaragua
and Japan, the Sandwich Islands,
a break nearly midway, |
must be the relay station. And |
the same will be the case in the |
event of a submarine line from
San Francisco to the Australian
colonies, which is now being talked
Of and which must come sooner or
.ater.
Under conditions fast approach
ng, the Sandwich Islands must
nave a government so strong as to |
command the respect of all ma
ions and to insure the safety of
heir increasing trade. The Eng
fish residents of these islands, as
veil as the English nation, are
most anxious for English domini-
IN, but in the event of annexation
o the United States, and that
GEMS to be the destiny of the Ha-
Vaiian group, neither England nor
ny other European nation would
'ffer any objection.-Honolulu let

THE STRTET-CJR STRIKE.
Another Outbreak Occurs and the situa-
ton Growing Threatening.

WHEELING. W. VA. Feb. l5.-Another
turn was taken in the street-car strike
to-day, when a large number OF the men
employed by the company 10 take the
strikers places quit and Joined the strik-
ers. The strike has lasted nearly four
weeks, and during that time four to hVe
cars n day have been run under police
protection, which the public have been
too terrorized 10 patronize. The loss mas
been enormous. IL is claimed that the
strikers will make an effort to have the
city council declare the franchise OF the
company null and void
As the electric streets car strike con-
tinues the situation grows more threaten
ing. Another riot occurred at o'clock
tonight this time within the city limits.
AS A car manned by non-uniOn men was
running up Market street IL ran the gaunt-
let OF a mob, numbering fully 1000 men
and boys, strung along several squares
All sorts OF missiles were thrown at the
car. and the operator was forced to de-
sert Il. The car was then run on the
track. The police were hastily summoned,
and a squad arriving on the scene, the
mob was dispersed, but one man was
arrested. SO far there has been three
serious riots and several men have been
badly injured. Public sentiment is against
the strikers, and in view Of the recent
occurrences there is a strong feeling in
favor OF calling on the Government for
military assistance as the police force
seems unable TO cope with the question.
