One of the most beautiful displays
at the Merchants Karnival was that
of True, the photographer, who was
represented by Loua Steele, Hastily
dressed in a white dress trimmed in
photographs. The tableau represent
ing True was one of the handsomest
of all. Several fine pictures were
displayed, while in the frames were
the real faces of Miss Belle Morris
and little Miss Alice Morris and lit
tie Miss Blossom Morris, max
ing three as charming pictures as We
ever saw, and a casual observer
would have taken them for well ex-
ecuted paintings. We desire to con-
graduate Mr.. True on his ingenuity
in planning such a display and on
the success with which he carried
out his ideas. 1t was pronounced
simply perfect.

EDITOR Bulletin
The Star of May 16, filled with its
usual batch of gush, bosh and flip
pancy, warbles thus: 1t is not the
business of the United States, ex-
cept where the Monroe doctrine is
threatened, to concern itself in the
internal quarrels of any foreign
country" etc. Neither does the
United States allow her representa-
tives to take hand in overthrowing
a weak and trustful country as they
did here, which has damned and
sounded the death knell of annexa-
ton throughout the United States.
The Star may twist, squirm, wrig
gle, squeal and write all manner of
falsehoods and play the cowardly
bounce upon a woman, in order to
keep up the waning courage of those
who "dig" to keep it alive, still an
nexation is doomed, through wrong
and injustice. AS for deporting the
Queen as the Star man advocates in
his paper of May 10, he should take
care that he is not doomed to de-
portation himself, somewhere in the
near future. The natives from Nil
hau to Hawaii have learned to trust
and venerate both Minister Blount
and his lady, which sorely tries the
patience of the Star man, therefore
the malignant spirit shown in his
writings, which hits not where he
aims, but recoils back upon himself.
There appears to be great deal OF
truth in the old adage, that ''whom
the gods would destroy they first
make mad" as the Star man seems
much troubled and sorely afflicted
with the terrible disease, The good
people of Hawaii should take heart
and praise the Lord, who, it would
seem, in His mysterious way has
caused to be sent here an honorable,
strong and just man in Minister
Blount, to champion the cause OF
Hawaii in the interest of right and
Justice. HAWAII FOREVER.

In the trial of G. A. Herring for
the murder of D. l.. Huntsman, the
defense rested at 10:45, when Mr..

to the jury. After an hours recess
Mr.. Ashford resumed his speech.
He laid stress on the evidence of an
intrigue between Huntsman and
Mrs. Herring, citing letters of affec-
tion that passed between them, in
Guiding disgusting "bill of sale"
found on the mans body. Tears fell
from the prisoners eyes in great
beads as counsel recited the "infamy"
established between his wife and
Huntsman. The case will probably
go to the jury this afternoon.

honorable retraction and disclaimed
all intentions to injure innocent
persons here. This should satisfy
all reasonable men, but the editors
of the p. G. A. and the evening
twinkle do not come under that
head. These two gentlemen should
remember we are not annexed yet,
and that it does not look right for
them to be finding fault with the

criticizing the actions of an Ameri-
can Minister here. see the editor

Investigations yet, and it would be
as well to postpone the deporting

ANOTHER TOURIST.
Honolulu, May %, 1893.
The Daily bulletin. [volume] (Honolulu [Hawaii]) 1882-1895, 1893-05-23

By hasty and vindictive action
against Mr.. Charles Nordhotf the
Provisional Government has come
into collision with the United States
Minister. 1t was an astonishing
revelation that was made at the gen
eral session of the Councils this
morning, that the cause of the CORE
spondent's citation to appear and
answer to a charge of contempt was
nothing more than the errors he in
advertently made regarding those
who signed petitions in favor of the
lottery. Mr.. Nordhoff had already
made all the amends usually requir-
ed by law in such cases, including
an apology to the very councillor
who introduced the matter at the
executive session yesterday. There
is certainly serious misunderstood
ing out about the lottery petition or
petitions. When representative of
this paper sought definite informa-
ton regarding the names signed to
petitions in favor of the lottery, on
receiving the first denial of the
correctness of the list copied from
the New York Herald, he could only
find fragments of copies of the lists
but he met different persons who
said they could swear to certain
names having been seen on the ori.
ginals. Why not have the genuine
lists published2 Presumably the
Government has the custody of the
official records of the last Legisla
ture. 1t is only fair to all who are
wrongly suspected of having sup
ported the lottery scheme that the
petitions on both sides with thei
signatures should be brought to thu
clear light of publicity.

Extreme language from any point
OF view at this juncture is to be de-
plored. Heated expressions in the
Government press and in the Annex
alton Club have compelled foreign
intervention. Everybody knows that
President Garfield lost his life in
directly from the violence of merely
factional strife in single party.
And only the other day a ruffian
crank was apprehended while seek
ing the life of Great Britain's most
venerable and eminent statesman,
and on the person of the culprit was
found evidence that his brain was
excited to the striking point by the
excessively hot speeches on home
rule he had read or heard. 1t was
admitted by the Provisional Govern
ment yesterday - what had been
claimed by the opposition all along
that the authors of the present
situation in this country are virtu-
ally on trial before the United
States Government. Why then can
not the issue be awaited in calmness
by all parties?

Llon-Tiger Hybrids.

An attempt is now being made by
the Royal Geological Society of Ire
land to obtain some hybrids or cross
breeds between the two largest
species of cat--namely, the lion and
the tiger That such hybrids have
been produced before is an estab-
lished fact, the most authentic case
in question being the birth of three
half-bred cubs to a lion and tigress
in Atkins Menagerie at Windsor in
1924. The cubs were exhibited to
George ~, who christened them
lion-tigers, but they died very soon
afterwards. In 1927 two other cubs
of like species were born in the
same menagerie, and survived rather
longer. Ihe stuffed specimens of
both of these can now be seen, one
in the British Museum, the other in
the Science and Art Museum, Edin-
burgh. In the present instance there
is every reason to anticipate success,
as the Dublin Gardens have already
successfully reared over 100 lion
cubs.

Joy to the wife and mother,
and places the cook in posi-
ton to snub the man who wants
to be clothed in the divine
right of suffrage. Instead of
his dividing the cares of the
household, letting his master
take one half and the mistress
the other, his merriment will
createin him a desire to pre-
empt the whole aggregation;
harmony will be restored and
the glad sunlight will come
back to the roof tree. Dys-
pepsia will disappear and the
gastric nature of the family
will depart with the entrance
of-the Fischer Steel Range.
Get one of them and give your
stomach a chance to rid itself
of verdigris, get one of them
and abandon the old style of
sallow breakfast rolls that will
resist the action of acids, get
one and save half the fuel you
are now using, get two and
save it all. The Fischer Range
has done more to lessen the
breach in families where poll
tics had crept in and opened
the gates to discord than all
stories ever written, and has
lowered the death rate in cities
where dyspepsia was epidemic
twice, a year. In Ohio and
] Indiana where office seekers
4 thrive better than anywhere
else they are used by party
leaders to increase the voting
population, they're used in
every State in the Union and
in all parts of the world. The
Provisional Government has
one in the barracks and it is
pronounced by cooks to be the
best range manufactured.
We had fifty come in this
shipment made of steel, twice
the thickness of the old style,
they are stronger than ever
and made to last until the Ha-
waiian Islands sink into obscu-
rity. They will heat up quick
er than a politician and re-
quire less fuel than any stove
of the same size. To those
people who have prospered
since the Fischer Range it is
safe to say that it is due to the
fact that this range has occu
pied a prominent place in the
house.
These ranges come in sizes
from number 7 up, hot water
