When

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 too.
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 its voice
heard in every nook and corner of
our store. It 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. a 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 S65 in price,
but we find the $50 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 bulls 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
freshman? 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
DeeG, as we nave every luluS AdNoy "
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 bean
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 lot of the best in the
world and it will pay you TO wait
for it.

hubbub created by the Celestials
in their Thespian efforts became
such a nuisance, that compla ints
were made to the Government, and
it was decided to compel the Chi
nese to move the playhouse. The
present location was chosen, it be-
ing a long distance from any part
of the city thickly settled with
white people, and the playhouse
which was sold at auction yester-
day was built by the Chinese, on
condition that in ten years from
the time of it's completion it should
revert to the Government.
The place has always been a
great resort for Chinese, and has
paid it's lessees we'll. The theatre
cal performances themselves were
not, probably, very remunerative !;
but in the upper portion of the
building, over the stage, there were
nearly two hundred rooms, which
were ostensibly rented to dodgers,
but which really were used by
those who were slaves of the opium
habit. Here, nightly, dope"
smokers would congregate in force,
and could rest fairly secure
against arrest. There were three
flights of stairs to go up
before the smoking department
was reached, and a guard was sta
toned at each landing place, ready
to give the alarm on the slightest
cause for suspicion. On the top
floor, a system of wooden troughs
was built, running down to an I'M
foreground pool, and all the para
phernalia of the smokers could be
disposed of at very short notice, SO
that when the police should arrive,
a most innocent and greatly abused
set of Cinnamon would be in the
rooms, each and all ready to swear
that they did not know what opium
was.
Of late, the condition of the
building has been such that 1t was
thought necessary by the Govern
ment to tear it down. After this is
accomplished, the Government
hopes to build a sea-wall along that
portion of the river, fill up as much
as necessary, and make a valuable
piece of property out of it. There
is no immediate prospect of new
Chinese theatre, and the celestials
will have to depend on private the.
atricals for their amusements, and
go to the other opium dens for their
smokes.

The surprising increase of the
population Of Japan since the fall
of feudalism in 1861 is a subject of
interest to the foreign student, and
also for congratulation or anxiety
to the native statesman and econo-
mist. In 1871 the population of
the empire was about 80, 100000;
in 1875, 100000; in 1880, &c.

trasts in color are introduced in the now
millinery, such as green of the bright
grass shade with tawny yellow. The
shapes are close fitting to the head and
come well down at the back, allowing
space and foundation for the new style
Of trimming the backs, almost as elabo-
rately as the fronts. Some of the new
ribbons have MORE on one side and satin
on the reverse. Colored straws are to

feathers stand up erect on many of the

roses close set together are introduced
under the brims.
The huge bows introduced last month
and worn at the throat were but the
harbingers of a variety of large neck
scarfs. A quite new model is of watered
silk with lace ends. II is wound about
the neck and fastened in front with a
