Have you felt, recently, that
you would like to add piece
of exquisitely cut glassware to
your stock of table ware ?
There's no reason why you
should not crafty the desire if
it exists. No other store in
Honolulu keoYs such a hand
some and varied stock as we
have and the prices are quite
as low as yoa would find in
any of the New York shops.
We might mention Rock
wood pottery in the list
Of things desired by peo-
pie of refined taste. The
coloring Of this ware has fire.
quently been mentioned III the
Art Journals as being superior
to anything of the kind manu-
featured in the United States.
One piece of it will add much
to the appearance of your
cabinet.
We have added TO our stock
of glassware a large quantity
OF fine engraved glasses which
we can sell you at very low
prices; you would consider
them cheap at double the
money. One pattern goes to
you at Sl.50 a dozen engraved
as well as any you pay $3.50
for in other shops. The Gre
clan pattern, higher in price,
because there is more engrav-
ing to them, but the glass is no
finer in quality than the others,
either of them comes under
the head of pure crystal.
You've looked around per-
haps, with the idea of buying
a lamp! have you found any
to suit you better than ours
and for more money than we
ask you ? In banquets, our
styles are the newest; in piano
lamps, none have been design
ed since our last lot was
imported; in Halls lamps with
colored glass or plain white,
our stock is up to date; pre-
eminently the head.

SEEDS AND PLANTS.
Commissioner Marsdeu Has
Something to Say Regard
ing Them.

Mr.. EDITOR: In many of the
beautiful gardens in Honolulu a
number of valuable trees and
plants are now seeding, AID others
will seed during the summer. Few
people have use for or care to
gather the seeds; in most cases
they have as much vegetation in
their grounds as they care for,
and many valuable seeds go to
waste.
The bureau of agriculture and
forestry have at the King street
nursery a skilled gardener and
have special facilities for the pro-
pagation of trees and plants, which
when propagated are established
in lauhala leaf pots. The plants
in these pots can be planted by
anyone. All that is necessary is
to dig a suitable hole and put In
the plant, pot and all, and the
plant will be sure to grow.
Every day plants are being dis
tributed free to the public. The
bureau Of agriculture is DESTROYS OF
increasing as much as possible the
free distribution of trees and
plants, and desires seeds and cut
tings of every description that
have a value for either an econo-
mic or an ornamental purpose.
Several residents have kind
ly given the bureau permits
sion to gather seeds from their
trees; and it is desirable that
the list of such persons be largely
increased, so as to obtain as great
a variety Of seeds as possible. The
bureau hopes that many of our
pubIic-spirited ladies and citizens
will notify the commissioner at his
Office in the Judiciary building,
so that he may send gardener to
gather seeds from their trees and
plants. The greatest care will be
used in collecting the seeds that
no damage is done to the trees or
plants.

Our friends. the royalists who
love US not, but with whom we
must bear, are probably not as yet
aware their champion Mr.. Nordhoff
was recalled by the Herald because
he was injuring the anti-annexa-
ton cause instituted by the sugar
trust. The report started by Mr..
Nordhoff, a few days before he
withdrew from the royalist gaze,
that he "went because he had
killed annexation, and his presence
was needed no longer" shows that
he was evidently bent on carrying
out the farce to the end. The men
who sent Mr.. Nordhoff here are
much shrewder politicians than
the roalists of Honolulu. The
former recalled the laundering old
man after seeing the effect pro-
dueed by his political fabrications
the royalists are still swearing by
Papa Nordhoff, and believing the
government at Washington is as
green as they are.

The row which occurred at the
Oceanic wharf on the day the
steamer Australia sailed hence was
at best a ridiculous affair. It is of
too little moment to ask which
band was to blame. There is but
one treatment to which such
grown-up children should be sub
jected-they should be spanked by
their respective leaders, like chill
dren, and, if necessary, be put in a
dark room for an hour. Offensive
Mr.. Bush was the original cause of
the disturbance of course. If any
one is rebuked it should be he.
But this is the most undesirable
feature of the whole absurd send
off to Mr.. Nordhoff,-in six months
from now Mr.. Bush is just as likely
to be abusing the royalists and
hiring a band to second his devoid
political chattering.

The fool who hung the threaten
ing placard on the gate of Mr..
Spreckels' residence was almost as
great an idiot as the royalist editor
who attempted yesterday to make
political capital out of the thing.
The intellectual freak who at once
announced that it was no doubt
zone of those cowardly ours so
abundant in the ranks of the an
nexationists" doubtless spoke as
royalists generally do when ex-
cited, without reference to the evil
dence in the case. The fact is
there is not a particle of proof
going to show that the coward who
committed the indecency on Mr..
Spreckels was an annexationist.
Suppose it was claimed the whole
thing was a royalist trick to
keep up the excitement? The
charge would have as little
foundation or proof as the one
in case. Perhaps the most tenable
theory would be that the man who
perpetrated the outrage was a
crank. like the royalist editor in
question, and therefore not respon-
sible. President Dole, whose name
is mentioned in sort Of royalist
red-right as it were, has, perhaps,
during the troublous times of the
past few months been threatened
more than any other man in Ha-
waii, but, like Mr.. Spreckels, be has
had the good sense to pay no heed
to the actions of irresponsible in
dividuals. The journalistic crank,
like political evil, never dies.

Bishop Willis is again tempting
fate by writing editorial comments
on "the political situation" The
bishop is more at home when cuff
ing the second congregation of St.
Andrews cathedral for being on
the wrong" side of the theological
fence than when he attempts to lay
down the law as to what consti-
tutes political heresy in Hawaii.
We greatly admire the bishop in
theology, but in politics are obliged
to turn the table and denounce him

rate of three or four cents a pound.
There is no doubt this can be done
and it is very likely that the peo-
pie of that section will wisely de-
eide to eat Australian mutton
hereafter. There is a suggestion
in all this to the lovers of fat
mutton who live and move and
have their homes in Hawaii. If
mutton can be laid down in Brit
ish Columbia at four cents pound
what is to prevent enterprising
men from opening the Honolulu
retail market to Australian mutton
at much lower price than is paid
for it now?

RAILROAD RACKET.

We have repeatedly made inquiry
rs to what has become of our com
mittee OF fifteen, and not the slight
est tidings could be had. even il they
yet existed. 1t seemed that we were
leading a forlorn hope, waiting for
them to give us a ray of sunlight to
relieve us of the gloom and disap-
pointment that has hung over our
city since the first burst of enthusi-
asm which came from the Board of
Trade meeting liz March. While we
have been waiting patiently (at first
impatiently), now news comes to us
over what might be called the grape
vine route, that the Kansas City,
Pittsburg railroad was again looking
over the same route already surveyed
through wards /, 2 and 3 of Caddo
parish. We learn that Mr.. Hubbell
has moved to Texarkana and will
make his headquarters there. Indi-
cations are that they will build the
road to Shreveport at as early a pc
riod as practicable. But there is moth
ing to assure us that we will get the
shops asked for. Wewill be asked the
privilege OF letting them come in
with side track aud pass on to the
gulf, and our committee will stand at
the depot and say to Us see what we
have done for you. Since we come
to think about 1t, we don't want
any shops here no how; the dust and
grimy SCOT that wonld belch forth
from their smoke stacks would be of
fensive TO some of our citizens; the
noise of thousand hammers would
wake us up too early aud destroy our
morning nap, and then our retail
trade is Just abont where we want it;
had we brought these shops to
Shreveport these retailers would get
out from under our thumbs; they
couldn't use 70 per cent money i'll
their business"
We sincerely hope our information
is correct and that we will soon hear
the whistle of the construction train
of the Kansas City, Pittsburg and
Gulf railroad, with shops or without
them We have arrived at that state
that we will take anything we can
get, and thank you too.

definite action on this will be taken
Tuesday night As 1t is a matter
which the public isinterested in, these
deliberations should be carried on
publicly. This for two reasons, first
the newspapers will take the matter
up and that they may hear all sides
impartially, so as to write impartially
their reporters should be allowed to

rs business dull with you?" is a
question which nine out of ten busi-
ness men address to each other when
they meet nowadays" To this
query the reply is almost invariably
"well 1 should say it is; never saw
snch hard times" Now we can but ad-
NIT that we dislike very much to hear
business men, merchants especially,
talk that way. In the first place it
does no good to indulge in this whine
and in the second place it is entirely
unnecessary. With some, business
would be dull if silver dollars were
flying through the streets end men
with pockets full of gold were going
around begging some one to exchange
merchandise for money. 1t is always
easy to make business and draw
good trade. This is done by selling
your goods as cheap as you can, keep
a good class of goods on hand, recon-
mend nothing but what is worthy and
treat customer as if he was your
friend. This is the way to make a
success of business and is the plan
we have always adopted. We there
fore say to the trade that we are pre-
pared for dull times and have
splendid stock of goods, which we are
selling at extremely close figures ana
