CHAPTER l.
A BLIGHTED LIFE.


Bernardine, the Bankers Bride, the
bride of a few short hours, paced ner-
vousIy up and down her sumptlous
boudoir. Her eyes were unnaturally
bright, her cheeks pale and tear
stained-she who had thought she
would have been so happy!
AS for as the man who watched her
with the anxiety he could not conceal,
what was his wealth 10 him now?
s.Merciful Heaveus!n was his thought;
she weeps, and would give my mil
lions TO bring back the smile on that
fair face. What can have changed
her thus?n
Suddenly the fair girl pauses and
gazes reprOachfully at MIN: douglas
Blanchard" she says; "when L con-
sented to be your wife, you promised
me all that refinement could wish and
wealth could purchase"

which you are environed."

swers earnestly; ~ have fulfilled
every promise. No pains or expense
have been spared; the decorations OF
this mansion are palatial; the old
world and the new have been ran
sacked for rare and costly furnishings.
More than have done is beyond the
magic of the wand of wealth.

mans voice is firm; but look of

peats: "Ihe linen IN the closet IS not

THE IMPUDENT TRAMwAY COMPANY.

1--WE hear that the Tramway Com
pany has declared its intention 20
make il "hot" for those who have
attempted to prevent the cruel
treatment of the animals in its SER
vice! Very well. Let the public
nov take a hand in the business,
and see if there is not some loose
heat to be used about that COM
pany. Section 12 of its charter is
as follows:
The rate of fare for each passenger
upon the said railroad shall not ex-
coed five cents for each passenger
using said cars up to and within Judd
street, the Industrial School, and TO
and within Punahou street; and ten
cents for each passenger using said
cars beyond the last mentioned
points.
Section 8 provides that if any
overcharge is made, this railroad
shall forfeit the sum of 800 to the
person overcharged.
It will be seen, at once, that
there is no authority to charge over
five cents from Punahou to Judd
street. There is no provision which
allows the company to make new
charge at Queen street, for neither
that street and no other street in the
city is mentioned as starting point,
or a place where a new charge is
made. The rate is five cents for
"using the said cars up to and
within Judd street." Where from ?
Why, from the place you get into
the cars, at Punahou, or elsewhere.
1t does not say from Queen street.
The rate is also five cents ito and
within Punahou street" Where
from The law does not say.
Therefore, it is from the point
where you enter the cars anywhere
from Judd street downwards. Ten
cents fare is allowed for using the
cars "beyond these points" How,
then, can that sum be charged
within them
No doubt the Trainer OF the law
overlooked this point, and intended
to make Queen street the poin>,
where new fare could be collected.
But the law does not say so, and
we must take the law as it reads.
If the penalties were collected
for the violations of this law, it
would terminate the miserable ex-
istence of this disgraceful concern.
A tramp could make a little for
tune out of these fines.
There exists, moreover, COM
mon law right, on the part of the
State, to have a franchise declared
void, when those who use it, per-
sistently violate the terms of the
law under which 1t has valuable
rights and privileges. We call
upon the Attorney-General to move
in this matter. The electric road
will soon be built by somebody.
We do not care who builds it, but
the sooner this relic of monarchical
stupidity is legally removed, the
better it will be for our people and

is apparent the moment you
examine our stock of solid
silver ware and that sold in
other establishments. This is
a new line we have gone into
this season and the stock was
bought in San Francisco by
Mr.. HENDRY. Only the very
latest designs were selected
for our trade, and we believe
we have just what the people
want. The stock comprises
Sugar Shells, Butter Knives,
Soup and Gravy Ladies, Salad
and Fish Sets, Preserve and
Berry Spoons, Sugar longs,
Olive Spoons and Forks,
Sardine Forks, Cold Meat and
Lettuce Forks, Pie Knives,
and forty-seven other articles
not catalogued.
In fancy goods our five
o'clock tea stands will win the
admiration of the lady who
wishes to be in the fashionable
swim without going to a great
expense. We have a half
dozen very pretty patterns.
Banquet lamps, handsomer
than anything aee have ever
shown before, will tempt you
to discard your electric lights
and 60 back to kerosene.
We have also a stock of use
full and ornamental goods in
aluminium. Sleeve Links,
Combs that will not break:
Hair Pins with aluminium
flagree work that rivals silver
in brightness and is more SER
vicable because the trimmings
will not tarnish. Handsome
TASKS that hold water, whiskey
or root beer.
A full assortment of pocket
cutlery of the Wostenholm
make reached us by the
Alameda. The people who
have inquired of US for knives
during the past few weeks can
now be accommodated.
Our importation of Ice
Chests and Refrigerators this
week includes all sizes and the
best preservers of fruits, meats
and vegetables we have ever
had. Some have compart-
ments especially for butter, so
that it does not come in con-
tact with anything that will af-
feet the flavor. These Refri-
gerators are made of hard
wood handsomely carved and
polished.
A full line of silver plated
ware complete in every thing
suitable for table use adorns
our shelves. Some of the art
icles are hard to distinguish
from solid ware, in some in
stances the designs are copied
from those used in the genuine
article.
Another new departure for
US is the patent thousand-and-
one position reclining chair,

from bolt upright to a couch.
The arms, back and seat are
upholstered in movable cush-

commend these chairs to the

Thanksgiving day, emphasizes
our purpose to secure the greatest
improvement of ourselves, and our
families. Let US recall the homely
but practical lesson, given by
the old New England preacher.
1t was a custom in the old colon
ial days of New England, for the
farmer to ask, and obtain, the
prayer of the Dominic, over any
field which he proposed to plow
and SOW in grain. 1t was said that
on one occasion, shrewd and prac-
teal Dominic was taken to field,
and asked to invoke divine blessing
upon it, and that, after he had
raised his hat aud hand, and was
about to begin, he slowly looked
over the poor soil, and solemnly, re-
marked, deacon, this land don't
want prayer it wants manure"
Let US recall the words of the
good Dominic, and when we ask
our pastors to pray for a rich har-
vest of spiritual growth, let him
not have cause to reply, that our
souls need, rather, the manure of
onr own self-sacrifice, and work.

THANKSGIVING.

In the evolution Of Thanksgiving
Day, a critical point has been
reached. As a simple day for the
return Of thanks FOR blessings re-
ceived, it was in the line Of Puritan
thought, but when affairs were
gradually erected, upon which offer
ings of roast turkey, roast pig and
chicken pie, were made to those
idols, the appetites of men, dis
turbing element was created. For
the thoughts of even the best Of
housewives, were during the
Thanksgiving service, in their kitch-
ems; the good man found that his
heart was truer to Poll of the
chicken pie, than to the -four
teenthly" of the sermon, and the
small boy, standing on the shore
of a vast ocean of tempting food,
revolved in his mind the problem,
as to how far the skin over the hui
man stomach could be stretched,
without cracking.
On this commemorative day is
presented the curious spectacle,
especially in New England, of the
chariot of humanity, drawn by two
steeds; one of them milk-white,
which struggles upwards to a
higher plane of spiritual life; the
other, coal-black, which plunges
down to the abyss of gluttony.
The goal of one is the serenity of
the souls rest; the goal of the
other is the torpid repose coming
after roast pig, and luau. Can the
chariot of humanity stand this
strain more than once a year?
There should be erected in every
city and town, on these islands, a
platform scales, like the Fairbanks
manufacture, but adjusted, by
some supernatural agency, for the
delicate and unerring weighing of
character and spiritual growth.
On Thanksgiving day, each citizen
should stand on it, and drop a
nickel into its slot, by direction of
law, and the recorded gain or loss
of weight, in spiritual growth,
should be observed in the Interior
Office, and be published in the
ADVERTISER. 1t should be an occa-
sion of festivity for those who have
made gains, and day of humilia-
ton for those who have made
losses.
The annual taking of account
would furnish very instructive les
sons, especially, if in the churches,
the seats were occupied, according
to spiritual weights.
This arrangement, however, Is
hardly fitted for the present condi-
ton of the world, and will be
established by those in the coming
centuries, who believe in Looking
Backwards"
