Frank got the cake tray from the

nationality in bad French, so as not

are answered in English. and the
prices in French money, that by long
division you can turn into dollars
and cents, are transferred into Eng
lish shillings and pence and
iarthings; your nationality has
been wrongly fixed. Bewil-
dered and helpless you have
to explain that you are an
American, and beg to be told the
price in French money. When this
is done, however, you are so un-
settled that you can neither multiply
nor divide. Possibly the price is
given in centimes, and you exchange
them into cents and then wonder il
the tales of French cheapness are
not imaginary. A cotelette de
volatile truffee, for instance. you are
told is so centimes. Fifty cents
for a outlet! Only enough for one
person! That is eating money for a
truth; we cannot afford that, can

cent; why that is only ten cents!

anything like it at home as cheap"
Because it is cheap you take six
when yOn only need two; it seems
like saving money to buy more than
is necessary because OF the chance.
Prix fixe-fxed price-is promi-
nent in every shop, but the buyer is
to look upon the sign as all ornament

A Cry for Help

MI y. M bNdC WIZ h0
lately returned from an extended
trip abroad and who may be
remembered In connection with
censnrious article on the apostle
of Molokai, the late Father
Damien, is out in an appeal for
help to supply water to the pupils
and teachers of the Makawao
Seminary. This Seminary Is
under the care of the Hawaiian
Board of Missions and the prin-
cipal. Miss Martha Nc Lehman.
in a letter for help to the secre-
tary Hyde charges him with
previous knowledge of the scar
city of water. saying:
"Our water supply. as you
know, has never been plentiful;
bat there was so little rain last
winter. and there has been so
little during the last few months
that the situation is much more
alarming now than ever before,
when Miss Carpenter used TO
suffer from anxiety so many
times lest there should be a
water famine. We have been on
short allowance for seven
months. F"
Short of water for seven maontisi
And what have the members of
the very Christian Board been
doing during those past seven
months? An answer may be
easily given by anyone who has
been present at each celebration
given under the auspices of the
missionary element during the
past time not the least of which
was that of the glorious 18th. y
Few, if any. of the members of
the Board walk to or from their
business or their church. None
of them are suffering from want
of water. Do they think, for one
moment, of contributing their
dollars to aid the suffering peo-
pie at the Makawao Seminary?
No indeed, far from it, their
thoughts are bent on accumula-
ting not distributing dollars, and
when one suffers, it is, according
to their code, dispensation of
Providence.
And how does secretary Hyde
of the Board answer the appeal

MINISTER WILLIS
AS a Critic.

AS q "a @S@O'
The tone of Minister Willis
dispatches indicate th I the rep
resentative of the United States
here is favoring the members OF
the Provisional Government IN
spite of the insults and contun-
acy heaped upon his head by the
revolutionists. We feel justified
in arriving at this conclusion
when we read the comments OF
His Excellency on the men who
were mentioned by Mr.. Charles
Wilson-witb or without author
ity-as being considered fitted
and qualified to act as council
in the settling of the disturbed
affairs Of the Hawaiian Kingdom.
Minister Willis speaks as follows:
An analysis Of the list Of special
adUisers, achether natire or foreign,
IS not encouraging to the friends
of good gouernn.ent or Amer1cdn
Interests.
Now we would like to know
how Mr.. Willis has arrived at
that conclusion. 1t cannot Ger
tainly be from his own knowledge
of the characters of the men
whom he virtually condemns? Lit
must then have been from state
ments made to him by men who
are politically opposed to the loyal
cause of Hawaii, and we regret
to say that His Excellency by
such action is following in the
footsteps of Mr. John l.. Stevens
who allowed him self-but for a
purpose-to be bamboozled by
the missionary crowd which in
tests the country. The associates
of Minister Willis in this city are
so limited in number that it does
not take great deal of shrewd
ness to guess the source from
which His Excellency has
gathered his information and
arrived at his conclusions. We
publish below two lists of names,
one containing those of the
present members of the Pro.
visional Government whom Mr.
Willis evidently consider imma-
culate and one picked from the
names which it is claimed that
Mr.. c. B. Wilson furnished to
the minister as being those oi
competent and confdence-in-
spring men. The large majority
of our citizens will not be much
in doubt as to which set represent
the men who command the full
and absolute confidence and
respect of all classes and who
would be elected under any form
of franchise by an over.
whelming majority. Minister
Willis has yet much to learn:
