Domestic Love. Z

bnever saw garment too fine for
man or maidss there never was y
chair too good for a cobbler or .
cooper or a king to sit in; never q
house too fine to shelter the human
head. These elements upon us, the
glorious sun, imperial moon-are not
too good for the human race. Ele-.
gance fits MEN; but do We not value
these tools little more than they are
worth, and sometimes mortgage a
house for the mahogany we bring
into it? l would rather eat my
dinner off the head of barrel, or
dress after the fashion of John the
Baptist in the wilderness, or sit on
block all my life, than consume alf
on myself before l get home, and
take 50 much pains with the outside
wheI Me inside was as empty as u
hollow nut. Beauty is great thing !:
but beauty of garment, house and
furniture are tawdry osnaments COM
pared with domestic love. All the
'elegance in the world will not make
a home; and I would give more for
spoonfai of real heart love than for
whole lloads of furniture and all
the gorgeahsness all the upholstefers

Good Roads

r. Good roads ~ Xitkn1 .queetio1
among the most importanBadj jdncts OF
civilization, whether we consider their
economic value as promoter of COM
merce in the interchange of products
of farmers and manufacturers, or as
aid to the interchange of ideas and
the spread Of knowledge, their in
tiuence is equally important.
The bad roads that place an en-
barge upon commerce between towns
and country for a considerable part OF
each winter and spring are disastrous
in equal degree to both farmers and
merchants as far as the interchange of
commercial products is concerned, but
the farmer shut off from town in bad
weather is in greater measure the
loser. for if he could get to town
while the farm is too wet for work he
could transact his business and dis
pose of his farm products, so that
when good weather came, he would
be ready to push his work. Good
roads being greater economic value
to farmers than any other class of
citizens, they should be willing to
bear part Of the expense of making
good roads. Our present slip-shod
system will never give us such roads.
The law should be thoroughly revised
to bring it up to the real needs OF
our times. The old law was doubt
less the best thing when it was
enacted, but in our more densely
populated counties, it does not supply
our wants. We need graveled or
macadamized highways on the lead
ing thoroughfares, and the counties
should cease to board petty criminals
while they pay a fine by lying ip Jail
thirty or forty days. Put them all to
work on the public roads and rock
piles. Put those hip pocket gentry
on the rock pile thirty days for carry
ing pistol, and. it won't take long to
cure them of their love for these
relics of barbarism. Give us good
roads and put the criminals to work
under capable task masters to help
make them, is the>way Orchard and

"A Queen DethrOned.

San Francisco, Jan. 2S.-At Q.
o'clock tins morning the steamer
ClauGpe arrived in this port from the
Hawaiian lsrands, bringing important
news oS-a revolution in that kingdom.
A provisional government has been
established BY the uprising of be
people.
I aadkn bpkalini has been deposed
from p6wSf, monarchy abrogafeds
Government buildings seized and y
new provisional Ministry, composed
of four members, is sustained BY the
bayonets of volunteers.
A commission, headed BY Mr..
Thurston, came in on the Claudine, en-
route to Washington with petition
to the American Government to annex
the Hawaiian Islands to the United
States.
Queen Lilioukalini attempted Sat
urday, January 15, to promulgate q
new Constitution, depriving for
eigners of a right of franchise, and
abrogating the existing House of
Mobiles, at the same time giving her
the power to appoint q new Heuse.
This was resisted by the foreign ele..
ment Of the community, who At once
appointed Committee of Safety Of
thirty members, who called q mass
meeting of their classes, at which
10000 or $4,000 we're present.
The meeting unanimously adopted
resolutions condemning the action Of
the Queen, and authorizing the con-
mittee to take into further considers
ton whatever was necessary to pro-
tect public safety. Monday, the Com
mittee of Public Safety issued = proc
lamation to the Hawaiian people
recounting the history Of the islands,
and calling attention to the misrule Of
the present line of monarchA and
established provisional government.
Chas. L. Carter, one of the Com
missisners to Washington appointsd
by the provisional government at
Hawaii, made the following state
ment to-day: "The object Of our visit
to Washington is to have the United
States take possession Of the Hawaiian
Islands. We want to Join the Union;
not as State, however, but under :
Territorial or district form of govern.
ment. A government like that OF
the District of Columbia, with tho
addition of a Governor appointed BY
the President, is preferable for many
reasons. There is such q large num-
Der of Chinese and other cheap labor
ers on the islands who cannot b
trusted to vote intelligently, 70 that
if universal suffrage were declared,
the whites, who represent almost the.
entire business interests Of the c0un-
try, would be outvoted and powerless.

Hendry's Ready Mixed
Paints have captured the
heart of every man, woman
and child who want to paint
anything from a mansion to a
dog house. Our color list
which we will furnish on APP
plication contains an assort-
ment of colors admirably
adapted for inside or outside
work. These paints are better
than unmixed, for the reason
that they are prepared by
people who have been brought
up on pigments and who could
not make a mistake in COM
pounding the ingredients if
they sat up nights trying.
They are uniform in shades,
suited to people who want to
do odd jobs about the house
and are an advantage over un-
mixed paints from the fact
that when a lattice work
around a veranda is painted
with it, the color is all one
shade, whereas, by the old
way you are apt to have it
look like a harlequin's cos
tune.
The Aermotor trade is look
ing up. The promise of the
Water Works Department to
give Honolulu people enough
water to battle in has no effect
upon the plantation manager
who wants to irrigate cane
land at the least possible eX-
pense. The Aermotor has
been brought in competition
with steam engines and all
sorts of windmills, but in every
instance, it has come out on
top. In these times when
economy is the order of the
day, the original cost and the
cost of keeping up a piece of
machinery after it is bought
are necessary points for con-
sideration. In. this respect the
AermOtor can give any other
pumping outfit cards and
spades and win.

THE NATIONAL BAND.
Mr.. Hebron Points Ont the Bene.
fits of Going to Chicago.

Mr.. EDITOR: This evenings
Bulletin contained an anonymous
letter that was written with a view
of discouraging the band boys last
hope of going to the Worlds Fair.
The letter in question needs no
reply, but its intentional misstate-
ments should not pass uncorrected.
In the first place the native band
boys have long cherished the hope
of visiting Chicago and showing
Americans what Hawaiians can do.
Several agents have journeyed to
San Francisco on their behalf to
arrange a tour to Chicago, but have
met with no success. Many of the
members have been ont of employ
ment, and / understand some are
yet idle owing to the dull times
existing here.
The Cyclorama Company now
makes them a business proposition
to take the entire band to Chicago
and assume all financial obliga-
tons, and after the Worlds Fair is
over to return them to Honolulu
1t gives the boys an opportunity to
see the great exposition without
any expense to themselves, and a
chance to make some money and
distinguish themselves as Hawai-
ians.
The Cyclorama Company does
not expect to make barrels of
money" out of the boys other than
being benefited by their presence
at the cyclorama building when no
pay engagements are available.
The company in carrying out the
contract will be responsible for
large sum and should the pay con-
certs prove scarce the cyclorama
will sustain the loss. All dona-
tons which are given are for de-
fraying the travelling expenses of
the band and any surplus will go
to the benefit of the boys. The
receipts of pay engagements are to
be divided as follows: % per cent.
to the band and IS per cent. to go
towards liquidating their expenses.
After the expenses are satisfied the
entire proceeds of pay engagements
go 20 the band.
Everything is open and above
board in the proposition and it
rests with the members Of the band
whether they will see the Worlds
Fair and make themselves famous
or remain at home in obscurity.
People in San Francisco have
signified their willingness in assist
ing the band by cash contribu-
tons; many in Honolulu have
done so also. The steamship COM
pany will convey them to San
Francisco and return free of cost,
and the Occidental hotel in San
Francisco will care for them while
there without charge.
Unnecessary delay on the part
of the band will handicap those
who have the carrying out of the
financial and business arrange
ments and will end in the boys re-
naming at home.

MEMS FURNISHING GOODS

as the small boy says we're
right in it"
We've got the most complete
stock in the islands, and If
you'll come in for a few
minutes and look over our
stock, we will soon convince
you of the fact.
We've call your attention for
the past few weeks to several
lines of handsome undergar-
ments, but we haven't COM
menced to tell or show you one
third of the lines we carry.
We would like to have you
come and see for yourselves.
Nine tenths of the married
ladies of Honolulu shop for
their husbands. To these we
would say we can give you
bigger variety, better and
more seryiceable goods in
the mems lire general
~, than can be obtained
elsewhere and at the same
prices that you pay for vastly
inferior goods.
DR.. Jaeger's Sanitary Wool
en- Goods is a theme we've
harped on before, but we be-
lieve it's a subject that will
bear repetition.
We are firm believers in the
sanitary value of these goods
and the public are rapidly
coming to the same conclusion.
The last four months we have
more than doubled our output
of these goods, notwithstand-
ing the determined efforts of
interested parties to discredit
them.
We have recently added
the "Gauze Grade" of these
goods to our stock. They are
the incest thing imaginable,
as soft and light as silk; you
can blow almost through them,
and yet every thread is wool,
pure wool guaranteed.
The * Grade we keep con-
stantly on hand in all sizes, and
we have also added a few lines
for ladies.
Anyone doubling the au-
thority under which we sell
these goods can have all
doubts dispelled by reading the
authority conferred by DR..
Jaeger on the parties with
whom we deal, a copy OF
which we have inserted in Our
window.

THE WAIKIKI ROAD.
Pertinent Views of Citizen
Thereon.

Pertinent Views of Citizen
Thereon.
Mr.. EDITOR: A mechanics ideas
may have little weight with those
who have been chosen to act for
the people in the care and improve
ment of public thoroughfares.
However, with ''the greatest good
for the greatest number" in mind,
L feel that supporters of the present
government will read this sugges-
ton with more or less considera-
ton.
There is a constant travel to and
from the park and vicinity by the
public, who demand recognition as
taxpayers. The cad leading to
Waikiki from King street, as far
out as the bridge, is only what the
word road implies, and only for the
fact that people have learned to put
up with what they could get, the
width of this road vould not have
been tolerated.
From the Hopkins switch to
Macfarlane's dairy there is scarcely
room for two carriages to pass, and
many who are of a nervous tenn
permanent are kept uncomfortable
by the disagreeable effort required
in passing vehicles and streetcars.
In many places the road would
be wide enough, if filled in on the
sides and the positions of several
telephone poles were changed.
4 little attention to the matter
by the proper authorities would
demonstrate the feasibility of max
ing this road a boulevard, such as
Honolulu greatly needs.
This improvement would benefit
first those who justly claim recog-
milton. Carriages are taxed high
as a luxury (25 per cent. ad val
orem) and bicycles are also made
to pay 10 per cent. on the same
grounds. Aside from the special
tax on each vehicle, the road is
used by many of the largest tax
payers of Honolulu, and it seems
but fair that they should have the
same consideration in the matter.
