Great Discoveries Made in an Arizona
Gold Mine.

: YUMA, Ariz, Feb. 5.-One of the richest
strikes ever made in this section was made
last week in the Gold Rock mine, twenty
miles, from Yuma. The mine has fifteen
stamps and 25-ton Huntington mill run
ming and the company is adding ten stamps
more. From the first the ore has yielded
we'll in free gold. Last Sunday, at the
depth of 80 feet, the miners struck a
chamber Of ore running into the thou
sands per ton. During the week the body

sldered to be Que of the richest, if not
the richest, strike ever made in this sec

When
A man strikes a red

A man strikes a red
pepper in his soup he receives an
impression, and impressions are
lasting. How can we impress it
upon you that it is really your duty
to trade with US, that our prices and
service are better than elsewhere?
Perhaps we can impress you in this
way: Money talks, talks cents foo.
It persuades the stubborn and con-
vinces the skeptic. We know of no
such pleader as a LOW PRICE
and we have tried to make it's voice
heard in every nook and corner of
our store. 1t would only tire you if
we gave you a list of the many
different articles we have just receiv-
ed per "Senta" from England, Amy
Turner" from New York, and the
"Rithet" and "Australia" from San
Francisco, but we have the goods,
and if you call on Us you will get an
impression or two. First, they are
FIRST-CLASS and second, that our
prices are LOW.
For that tired feeling-not Hoods
Sarsaparilla, but more exercise-a
gun, rifle, or a boat if you take it
out of doors, or dumbbells, chest
weights, etc, if indoors. Our shot
guns range from S12 to $65 in price,
but we find the $35 gun gives just
about the right amount of exercise
for this climate-that is we Judge so
from the way they sell. After using
one of our Winchester Military
Rifles till you can get inside an s.
inch BULBS eye, s out of 10 shots, you
will find not only is the tired feeling
gone, but you have learned to be
cool and careful-things that will
serve you we'll in other ways than
rifle shooting.
Have you heard of the story of the
Irishman? He bought apples for one
cent and sold them for two and said
he made one per cent. profit. We do
not commit business suicide by try
ing to make the Irishman's one per
cent.
If you prefer boating and yachting
to shooting, you will find we have
most of the material needed to
either build yacht or boat or keep
it in repair when built, and you do
not have to buy any more than you
need, as we have everything handy to
retail as we'll as wholesale.
BETTER fence wire is now made
than ever before and as POOR fence
wire is now made as ever has been
before. The BEST can be had right
here in Honolulu, and-yes-the
WORST. We sell the GOOD KIND.
Wait for our remarks about barbed
wire. We have plenty now, but will
soon have a lot of the best In the
world and it will pay you to wait
for it.

he Looks Very Pleasant, but Gently
Changes the Subject.
IT IS ALL A STATE SECRET.
The Project of Obtaining Landing
Place for the Pacific Cable is Still
Being Discussed with the Govern
ment-The Matter Soon to be Decided.

Sanford Fleming, the man who
is in Honolulu for the purpose of
negotiating the privilege of bring
ing a cable here, is not man who
discloses his business to everyone
who asks him about it. He is a
most pleasant man to talk to, and
gives one the impression that, II he
could, he would tell the whole story
gladly, but that he could not do SO
without violating a confidence. L
would like to tell you all about il"
says he, "bnt, really the matter is,
at present, in embryo, and could
not do it. L am communicating
now with the Government, and it
would not do for me to tell all I
know. When the matter is COM
pleted 1 will tell you everything
freely, but at present -" and
here Mr.. Fleming stops, looks
pleasant, and changes the subject.
There is very little doubt, how
ever, that Mr.. Fleming's mission
here is an important one. A few
days after his arrival he was called
on by Captain May, of the Hya-
cinth. This, in itself, is not of any
special significance but the fact
that the captain wore his full uni
form, and was closeted for some
time with Mr.. Fleming seems to
have some import. Then again,
British Commissioner Halves and
Mr.. Fleming seem to have almost
diplomatic relations with each
other. Altogether, Mr.. Fleming's
visit here seems, at the present
time, to be most important one.
1t is expected that the Cham
pion, which left here a few weeks
ago, will soon return, and bring
some information regarding Neckar
island. 1t is a current rumor, and
one that seems to be substantial,
that the British cruiser has gone to
the barren little rock for the pur-
pose of surveying its shores and as
certaining whether, in the event of
it's being impossible or impractical
BILE to land a cable here, Neckar
island could be made use of for the
purpose. Of course, if the cable
should be landed there, branch
line would be laid to Honolulu, and
we would have communication
with the outside world, in addition
to that of steamers. 1t is a con-
summation devoutly to be wished
for, and, from present indications,
soon to be realized.

DROWNED IN THE SURF.
A Native Fisherman Meets Death
Near Hanalei.

News has arrived from Kauai,
telling of the drowning of a native
last Thursday morning, in the surf
at Wainiha, near Hanalei. The
man, who was a fisherman, went
out with a companion Thursday
night in a small boat. During the
night, the wind rose and the sea
became quite rough. Early Fri
day morning, when they attempted
TO land, the surf had become very
high. The boat was capsized, and
one of the men was drowned, his
companion reaching the shore in
safety, although much exhausted.
The body of the drowned man was
rescued shortly after his death.
