CONTINUES WELL SUSTAINED.
 The i'm mprovement in the local real es- tate market which set in early in the spring still holds good, with cheering prospects of continued betterment. And there is one thing particularly notice able in the transactions recorded. That isthat the prices secured for property are we'll up in figures. This means that the activity of the present season is not due to decline in prices, but to increased confidence and a gen eral revival of the disposition to do business.
 The proportion of cash transactions is also gratifying indication of the healthfulness of the market. For sev- eral years the movement of real estate has included enforced sales and trades in which little money figured. There is little of this going on now. Purchases are made as investments on their merits. The outflow of money to cancel notes held by nonresident in- vestors has greatly fallen off, and & large part of the capital represented in the transactions of the present season goes into the hands of resident owners, to be again put in circulation at home for the benefit of business generally.
 With this condition of affairs there is every assurance of still more healthy movement as the season advances, and of 8 better condition of local business all around. The building trades already find material encouragement in the dis position of property owners to make their holdings productive, and Tn every direction the improved condition of things is making itself felt in the com. munity.

dreadful shoddy was reduced from 30 cents pound to 15 per cent ad valorem. and it is now interesting to know what the result has been.
 The story is told in the record of shoddy importation since the new law went into effect. The figures are given by the Chicago Inter- Ocean as follows: The importations during March last were l ,407 per cent greater than during March of the last year the Mckinley law was in force. The amount during March of the last year of the old law was ,5O4 pounds, while the figures for last March were 2,118.6S9 pounds. For nine months ending March, 1894, the importations were 75,923 pounds, while for eight months ending March, 1895, they reached 9,713, 1s7 pounds.
 Commenting upon these figures, the Inter- Ocean indulges in the following trenchant observations ''Let us con- slder the situation: Free wool and ruined wool growers; free wool and woolen mills running half time; free wool and lower wages to such opera i tiyes as can find work in woolen mills free wool and an increase of more than l 400 per cent in the amount of shoddy
 woven into stuffs that are sold as
 "cheap all- wool clothing, made cheap
 by repeal of the wool duties.'"

HOME INDUSTRIES.


 The subject of home industries is creating more attention in Phoenix than ever before. Several thousand persons are so firmly tied down here with real estate interests, business interests and conditions of health that they could not get away if they wanted to, while other thousands prefer Phoenix as a place of residence and business even as matters now stand.
 All these are interested many enter prise that will either create wealth or keep wealth at home. It should be pointed out right here that the different ideas developed should have chance to come to the surface. Persons who earnestly desiie the prosperity of the community should not be content with their little back counter conversations in stores and the brief discussions on the curb stone and in the street car but should write out their plans and send them to the newspapers.
 It is already well knownb by this time to most people that no newspaper wants long winded contributions, and there < are few which welcome articles that are sharply critical or abusive. But citi- zen who has an idea concerning the good of the town ought to write 1t out in a plain and business.lfke way and send it to some journal. There is no need of his name or identity being known if he does not desire it except tc the newspaper office.
 The various editors of the home pa pers have and express ideas, which are as liable to be faulty as any others While it is part of the business of the editors to write out their ideas, they are not necessarily mora valuable thar those of other men. Every patriotic citizen who is really in> earnest should not rest content with talking with hi! neighbor and discussing the fragmen tary, sometimes biased and often in harmonious editorials of the news papers. but should chip in and freel. advocate what he thinks ia the righ thing to do.
 As to the mechanical part of it, ther Is but one suggestion necessary-us plenty of paper. Write either witl pen or pencil, leaving ample spac around the margins and between th lines in which the editor can alter o correct the verbiage according to tn styles of the office. Do not fold tn manuscript more than is necessary an do not roll it at all. As to the gramma and rhetoric, that will be attended t in the office. The ideas are the mai thing, and sometimes they are nor valuable than brass bands and bonuses

 Every one who kept posted on the assertions made by the free traders dur ing the campaign for free wool remem- Der that one of the leading arguments waa that the free importation of wool would put stop to the use of shoddy. The Democratic papers were filled with dreadful pictures of the dangers of us- ing shoddy, which they declared was loaded with disease of all kinds. It was maintained that, with wool free, there would no longer be any induce nent to use this pestilent-breeding stuff, and manufacturers would then make all-wool goods.
 It was observed that when wool was placed on the free list the duty on this

An Identity OF Honolulu tor Nearly
Half n Century.

Brother John, messenger for the
Catholic Mission and Convent,
died this morning at 10 o'clock,
aged 81 years. His full name was
Francis Pellet, and he was born
in Belgium on Sept. 2, 1914. He
arrived in Honolulu on April %,
1S4S, since which time he has
occupied the position mentioned
above. Brother John struggled
manfully to hold on to duty,
Notwithstanding the infrmity of
age, until two weeks ago. when he
was compelled to give up his good
and faithful service. There has
been no more familiar figure, or
one with more kindly features, on
the streets of Honolulu. He
was humble, useful and faith
full, and none knew him
but to he his friends, as he was
friendly and courteous to all with
whom he came in contact. Many
residents were deeply affected,
some shedding tears, when they
heard of the death of the old man,
whom all Honolulu has known for
nigh half century. Brother
Johns funeral will take place from
the cathedral at 7 o'clock tomor-
row morning.

CHOLERA MOST RAS.

DR.. Surmann has given the
Board of Health his professional
opinion that the disease lately
2attled with was cholera nostras
and not Asiatic cholera. Never
theless, cholera nostras being
contagious the Board Of Health
lid we'll to take stringent mea-
sures for its suppression. 1t
might be said also that, if
Or. Surmann's diagnosis is
correct, the reason is not dimin-
shed for placing and maintaining
the town and port in good SAM
rary condition, also for keeping
up constant vigilance against the
Ise of unsound food and impure
water. DR.. Surmann says that
Che disease is caused by the in
gestion of specific organic poison,
and its symptoms are like
those of arsenic poisoning as we'll
as of Asiatic cholera itself 1t
would be folly in the absence OF
&ndisputable evidence that this
was Asiatic cholera brought by
The steamer Belgic, to put forth
lay opinion upon DIR. Surmann s
diagnosis. Whether he is right
or wrong the disease was fecund
and fatal enough to be the cause
Of perpetual precautions against
it's recurrence in the community.
Tpon the mere suppositior
nat he may be right, then the
heory may be equally correct that
he discharge of the harbor dredg-
lngs at lwilei was one of the
primary causes of the infection.
1t is fervently to be hoped that
.his theory will not be confirmed
py an outbreak Of sickness when
the muck of Nuuanu creek begins
80 flow upon the marshes of Leleo.
1t is understood that the discharge
will be treated with disinfecting
material. No small quantity of
such, however, will be availing to
lender the mass innocuous.

Major Henry C. Dane, the WELL
known lecturer, died on board the
Mariposa on October 18th and
was buried at sea. His widow
will stop over at Honolulu in con-
sequence. Major Danes death
has cast gloom over the passen-
gers of the vessel and his wife
has their profound sympathy, as
well as that of the commdnity.
The late Major Dane delivered Il
series of lectures here in the early
part of 1887. He was an able
speaker and his lectures on the
American war were graphic in
description.

he refused to grant ner a
divorce. The couple had been
married three years and were
quite young, but they evident
~ got along about as well as
most married people do. How
ever, the youngWoman thought
she ought to have a divorce
and filed a complaint against
her husband alleging cruelty.
The specific facts set forth
were that her husband fire.
quently slapped her, whether
playfully or not the complaint
does not state, and that once
he spoke Grossly to her. This,
however, was while the huS-
band was putting up a stove,
and therefore cannot be Won
dered at. On another occasion
the young wife says her hus-
band threatened her, but in
answer to the Judge she eX-
planned he had only told her
the proper thing to bring her
under subsection would be to
raise a family. But this poor
husbands greatest offenSe lay
in his feet. He had big ones
according to his wife, and on
one occasion he had the auda-
CITY to place them in her lap,
and she said, "he had his boots
off,"
In refusing to grant a divorce
on such trivial testimony Judge
Ogden gave the wife a little
fatherly lecture. " You can
hardly expect the court to grant
you a divorce upon such teSti-
mony. If we were to grant
you a divorce upon that show
ing there would not be a
couple in Oakland that would
not be entitled to a divorce. 1t
is impossible to find human
nature that is ideally perfect.
There are many little imper-
fectionS that education and IS
ISOLATION will smooth off, and
married people must exercise
forbearance and patience. In
stead of widening the breach
close it up. A young couple
such as you are will find mar
ried life very happy existence
if you will return to your home
and not do just what you have
been doing heretofore
That Oakland Judge had
some sense, indeed it is ap-
parent that his wisdom arose
from experience. 1t is a pity
there are not more like him. If
there were there would be
fewer divorces and more hap
py homes. What is home
without a mother-in-IaW and
the privilege of putting your
feet on your wife'S lap without
putting your boots on first.
