How often it has been said by
the croakers that there is NO
business, everything is dead,
times are hard, and everything
is going to the bad here in
Honolulu, but the Cali
fornia Feed Co. are not built
that way; we say business is
good and getting better every
month. And to prove what we
say we have had to take larger
and more commodious ware
houses. We have just COM
pleted arrangements with Mr..
j. f. Colburn, whereby he
gives up his old stand, corner
Queen and Nuuanu streets.
We take possession on Novem-
Der 18th. Our old place at Leleo
is too small for our fast increas-
ing business, hence the change.
We expect the Hawaiian
bark Mauna Ala to arrive
here again in a few days
with her fourth full cargo
of hay and grain bought
by our Mr.. j. n. Wright who
will arrive on the bark. We
prefer to select our merchan-
disc ourselves rather than have
Others do it, which means
that we get better goods at a
less price.
We thank our many friends
for their liberal patronage for
the past three years, and hope
by strict attention to a bust
ness we thoroughly understand
to merit the patronage of as
more.
We intend to keep a large,
we'll selected stock of the
very best hay and grain to be
had in the California market,
and we are going to sell it.

SIGNS OF SCARLET FEVER.

Scarlet fever FIRST shows itself with
headache, vomiting. sore throat and high
fever. Within twelve or twenty -four
hoars, q fine bright scarlet rash appears
on the face aud upper part OF the body,
soon spreading over the whole surface.
After the third day il fades. After the
eighth day the skin begins TO peel in fine
scales on the body often in large fakes
from the hands and feet. This scaling
lasts from four 10 SIX weeks. There is
danger Of spreading IRON the tine otthe
appearance Of the rash until the skin has
entirely peeled of. The fakes Of dry
skin are especially dangerous in spread
ing the disease.
ANY person showing the early signs
before mentioned should be immediate
" reported to the Health Officials.

. A MOVEMENT ON FOOT

TO FORM SOUTHERN BICYCLE CIRCUIT,
 WITH BIRMINGHAM INCLUDED.
 There is movement on foot here to form a southern bicycling circuit, which will take in Birmingham, Atlanta, Memphis, Nashville, Chattanooga, Montgomery, Mobile Selma and several other cities in the southern states.
 There is a lot of correspondence going op between local cyclists and wheemen in other cities in regard to this proposed cir cult.
 This is move that is calculated to bene- fit racers, who have heretofore had to train for one meeting at time instead of being so situated that these cities could all be taken in on one round. With an associa- tion formed to have two months continual racing, riders could put up much better rac- ing than when only one event comes off.
 Just what will be done in regard to the matter is not yet known, but a meeting will most probably be held in a few days to take action on the matter.
 If this scheme goes through Birmingham will have some cycling next year that will be really interesting.

SECURITY OF DEPosIToRs.

Ia the debate on the currency bill Mir. Smith of Illinois asked what provision had been made in the bill for the protec- ton of depositors. Mir. Springer replied that the bill did not interfere with the regulations for the security of national bank depositors found in other parts of the national bank act. The present national bank act for tue security of depostors re- quires that national banks shall keep a cash reserve fund. The national banks in the twenty four reserve cities are required to keep 25 per cent of their deposit liabili- ties, and national banks in other cities 15 per cent of their deposit liabilities. In ad- dition, the banks are subjected to the close scrutiny of the comptroller, and in addi- tion stockholders are liable to be assessed equal to the amount of the stock they hold. Several years ago a movement originated among the capitalists of New York to get up an insurance company among bankers for the purpose of securing the safety of all deposits. The capital stock of the pro- posed insurance company was to be S5 ,C00,- OC0. It was called the bankers liability plan, and was modelled on the employees liability law. The banks were to be in- sured on the basis of their deposits, and were to pay premiums on their deposits, Such protected banks to take out policy for the benefit of depositors. The plan, how ever, was never consummated.

THE EKERRVIILE CASE.

The white men who lynched the six ue-
 groes at Kerrville, near Memphis, were &C., quilted after long and exhaustive trial. The prosecution exerted every effort to con- vict them, and the judge strained the law in deciding that the evidence of an iufidel was competent. It was thought that the evidence of this witness, who professed a non- belief in the existence of God, would convict tho prisoners, but the jury after a thorough and honest trial acquitted the prisoners. It was expected that the news papers which have had so much to say agains the whites of the South for lynch- ing negroes would turn loose the vials of their wrath on this jury for it's acquittal of the prisoners, but not so-they seem satisfied that the trial was a fair one and congratulate the South upon its determina- ton to bring to trial white men who are charged with lynching negroes. These journals seem to be somewhat surprised that the white men were ever brought to trial, and still more surprised that the trial was an honest and fair one. But here comes the Chattanooga Times, a Southern paper, deriving it's support from Southern
 men, and condemns the jury in the bit
 terest and most uncalled for language. It impeaches the honesty of the jury. It casts slur upon our courts Of justice. It declares that the verdict shows plainly that jury of white men will

LOOKS BRIGHTER.

The people of Birmingham who are in- terested in the welfare of the city will re- joice with the AGE HERALD this morning when they read the proceedings of last nights meeting of the Mayor and Alder men ard notice the expressions of cheer fuluess, confidence and good, sound faith expressed by Mayor VanHoose aud other gentlemen composing the board, all Of which expressions give evidence that tho credit of this city shall be preserved.
 Mayor Van Hoose has stu lied with deep concern the financial status of the city, and acknowledges himself that his research and conferences with interested citizens have caused him pleasure and surprise at the wonderful resources and possibilities which lie before this administration, and declares he sees daylight now, which was not plain to his vision several days ago. The recommendations of the Mayor look ing to the protection of the city's credit met the full ndorsemeut and concurrence of every member of the board, and 1t is gratifying to be able this morning to say that Birmingham is going to take care of her creditors.
 The AaE- HERALD was. sure that the Mayors former expressions were the out burst of unnecessary alarm, and that a little more experience and observation would open the way for him to reach the point which he and the people desired to attain. His honor is not q man who is generally easy to discourage, and he is ever quick and ready to lay hold upon pos abilities, no matter how remote they may appear and it was this fact that caused the AoE-HERALD to cheer him on the way, solemply invoking an exercise of his zeal and expressing the belief that there were no rough places impossible before him.
 Modest Alderman Kettig, who graces the chairmanship of the Finance Committee, gave assurances of his determination to see that every dollar of interest falling due in 1895 should be promptly paid. His speech in support of his resolution was an excel- lent one, and while he insisted that what he had to say was not to go in the papers, his remarks were so very appropriate, timely and encouraging that the readers of the AGE HERALD shall know that he sounded the right note in declaring it to be the purpose of his committee to preserve the credit of the city.
 That was an excellent evenings work by the new administration, and the AGE HERALD joins the citizens of Birmingham this morning in rendering congratulations and offering a helping hand in the great work the board has determined to accom- plish-the preservation of the city's credit.

CRELeENT CITY RACES.

NEW ORLEANS, Dec. 19.-The weather prophets are faVoring the winter m ssting, as the day was beautiful one, and this, together with the excellent card offered for the days sport, attracted a good attend ance. The track was good. All of the starters were gotten off pretty evenly and Starter Pettingill established himself in the good graces of the talent despite the fact that the iavorites failed to sustain their packers. The betting was lively and heavy.
 The feature of the day was the riding of J. Hill who passed under the wire first on three mounts and rode ouee for the place. Revenue and Jardine ran q dead heat in the last race and the betting was scraped by paying one-half of tho tickets face value.

The two negroes quarreled over q colored girl, and Vim bish laid in wait for Ford and shot him through the heart. He theE took the body and carried it to the murdered mans house and laid it in the yard, after which he fled and has not been heard from. The Ford family seems to be unfortunate, as the father was shot and killed while assaulting a white man named Barksdale some time ago.

GOOD WORK OF THE FIREMEN.
 The fire department answered an alarm from Seventh avenue and Twenty sixth street yesterday afternoon about 1 o'clock, and arrived just in time to save the large two-story house occupied by Mir. Ed Snow. The fire originated in the roof from a de- fective stove fiue, which had recently been put up. When discovered the blaze was of considerable size, and by the time the de- partment arrived it bid fair to spread de- structiou on short notice. Plenty of water applied quickly saved the building after considerable damage had been done. The roof was badly burned and the damage will amount to about $400.
