Inc tribune IS 4 new Dl-
cycle which we are introduce
ing to the Honolulu public.
There is probably no piece of
machinery, except a watch,
where outside appearances can
cover as vast a difference in
quality as a bicycle. A wheel
may be built to look all right
as far as outside looks 60, for
a comparatively small cost, but
it is difficult to Judge whether
a frame has one coat of ena-
mel or four, or whether the
plated parts have been run in
nickel fifteen minutes or three
hours. Also in the mechanical
work it is not easy to tell when
looking at a finished bicycle
whether the cones and bearing
posts are drilled, tapped and
formed in one operation and
used in the shape they come
from the first screw machine,
or whether they are first formed
over size and then finished to
gauge on hardened arborS at
several times the cost. Of this
latter class is the Tribune.
The purchaser of a Tribune
may feel assured that he has
got the finest bicycle in both
design, quality and finish that
good machinery and experience
can produce,
All Tribune wheels are fitted
with the CycloidaI Sprocket,
patented. Any good me-
chanic knows that a gear wheel
with teeth wrongly shaped,
will not drive machinery pro-
perly and that the slightest va
ration from the correct form
will cause friction and conSe-
quent wear. The object of the
Cycloidal Sprocket is to re-
move this useless friction and
cause the chain to drive as
freely as the running of ball
bearings.
The advantage of the Cy-
cloidal Sprocket over other
kinds is apparent when the
rider is climbing a hill or for
cling his wheel rapidly on an
up grade or against a head
wind, as a saving of IS per
cent in the power is guaran-
teed by its use.
We saw a little SaWed-off
individual trying to climb the
Victoria street hill the other
day on his wheel but he
couldn't make it. He only
came near enough to it to cause
him to lose his temper. The
fifteen per cent extra power
given blythe Cycloidal Sprocket
would have enabled him to
have ridden up that and similar
hills easily.
Bicycle riders are invited to
call and examine this new
labor saving invention. 1t will
cost them nothing.
While we are on the subject
of bicycles it may not be amiSS
to say that there are wheels
within wheels, and one of
them is the Gate City Stone
Filter. With this filter in the
house, the boiling of water is
not necessary to protect the
household from cholera bacilli,
microbes and other wriggIing
things too horrible to think OF
and about which the learned
physicians disagree and dis

When the S. G. Wilder left San
Francisco, the important seaman
shipping case was under advise
ment by the Superior Court. As
previously stated in the news
columns of the BULLETIN, this
case is to decide whether desert
ing American seamen may be impri
soned. 1t is claimed on the part
Of the sailors organization that
the law under which deserters are
imprisoned, which is a survival
of the old English statutes, is
unconstitutional in making class
distinction to the prejudice of sea-
men as compared with other hired
labor.

1t is needless to reiterate that
the BULLETIN is not responsible
for the opinions Of its correspond
ents. The paltiality of Mr.. Mar
ques for the homeopathic school
of medicines is therefore his own
affair. There are local physi-
clans, we are informed, who fol-
low either school according to
circumstances. 1t is to be feared,
however, that even if Mr.. Mar.
ques is right, there would not be
enough of his favorite medical
skill to go round in the event Of
an epidemic.

the correspondents wish tc
have this paper thus represent
ed, and his desire to give a
little cheap interest to his
letter. Each of the editors of
this paper has always upheld
American ideas of liberty and
popular government, both have
large and close family connec-
tions living in the United
States, and the wife of one of
them was born in Connecticut
of a mother whose ancestors
lived in that State since the
colonial period. Between the
Americanism that furnished
the genesis and the constitu-
tion of this Republic and the
Americanism Of the Declara-
tion of Independence, however,
there is great gulf fixed.

Hawaiian Music in San
Francisco.

The Hawaiian National Band
gave another delightful concert at
Metropolitan Hall last evening,
to a fair house, the Chronicle of
May 10 says:
The programme was varied
ranging from the masterpieces of
the greatest composers down to
the soft and mi-barbaric songs
of the native Hawaiians. While
the band renditions were appre-
ciated and literally applauded,
the native hulas and love songs
proved to be the features of the
evening which we're most enjoyed
by the audience. After giving
four selections from well-known
operas, the members of the band
laid aside their brass instruments
and, to the accompaniment oi
guitars and native reeds, sang
"Maiksi ka Makani Q Kohala."
1t was in the nature of a march
and was indeed stirring in its
weird tramp. Following this
was sung "E4a Wil1wili Wal"
with equally charming effect.
Then came the famous hula-hula
song, "He Manao he Aloha
Each Of the vocal selections was
heartily encored
The concert concluded with
two brass selections composed by
Jose T. Libornio, the leader Of
the band. They were the "Ha-
waiian National Band" and "Kai-
mana Hila." The latter was in
terspersed with native songs and
proved one of the prettiest rendi-
tons of the evening.

should do the boys good to go
abroad and see some of the
world. Notwithstanding the
proficiency to which Professor
Berger has trained the success
sors of the natives as the Gov
ernment band, there must be
very few indeed who would
not be glad to see the old
players back. There is more
attraction to the native musi-
clans, for residents as we'll as
visitors, than can attach to any
foreign band however pro-
ficient,

The lepers at Kalaupapa

at least to the initiated, that

Economy IS the watch
word. Government and pri-
vate concerns alike are inter-
ested in solving financial queS-
tons. The killing Of the In
come Tax in the United States
has been a surprise party to-
many people, but at the same
time it has not been an un-
pleasant surprise to the majori-
ty. We realize of course that
the Cleveland administration
will now have its hands full
and we equally are aware of
the difficulties Of the republic
of Hawaii. If the INDEPENDENT
can be believed the government
is running behind every day.
No government can afford to
do without the taxpayers be-
ing ready and willing to back
it up and on the alert to dig
up the necessary Wherewiths
and whereforS. To meet the
times we have exerted our
selves and we have found
"baby'' that will beat anything
in its line. This "baby'' is z
sewing machine and it ranks
with the SmarteSt "babieS" ir
the world. You can sew any
thing on it and do it just as
well as on patent-Steam-
foot -tramping machine. The
Baby goes by hand and il
fills the ticket every time. Tc
meet the hard times we have
reduced the price of this infan
"sewer" and we sell it at $500
a piece. Five dollars doesn'r
buy a "baby'' every day anc
hardly a government bond bu
our sewing machine is there
for that small amount.
We can also recommend ;
whistle to you. 1t is calleC
the Develine Whistle and
devil of a whistle it is. |
sounds like a Syren and i
makes noise enough to scare
away Thomas Square hoodlum:
or. even mounted police horses
Our Seymour's trimmers arr
the. shears called for by every
household. They are sharp
cutting and irresistible. Ono
used never forgotten-especial
ly if used for Scalping purposes
In all the articles we hav
mentioned to-day, we hav'
been dominated by a sense O.

our customers prices will hav
to go down. Now Whistle 0

No explanation has yet been
given to the public in regard
to the use of the Pacific Clut
as a banquetting hall. It has
been learned that the "Board
of Health" is not a member
and the poor chappies who have
paid their entrance fees and
been elected members want tc
know how the Board got ac'
cess to the club.

The Collector Generals re-
port to the Minister of Finance
is of course highly interesting.
Some liquor dealers are in
clined to believe the statistics
in regard to the importation of
California liquor to- be erro-
neous. The increase an
nounced in the report is re-
ceived. iii q sceptical manner.
1t shows that the merchants
don't yet know the methods of
the Collector General. When
was it that certain Honolulu
capitalist went into the
vinegar" business, because he
learned from the Collectors
report, that we had during a
year imported 100000 gallonsl
The speculator got burnt. The
Collector General had made a
Typographical" error. The
country only imported $4,000
gallons. But then 100000
more or less don't play any
figure with Mr.. j. B. Castle.
1t did with the reader of his
report.

nearly got stranded in San

Education, In last Saturdays
paper, upon the poor schools
and salaries given to Messrs.
Keliinoi and King, young
Hawaiians who received a
normal school training for their
profession in the United States,
Mr.. j. F. Scott, secretary of
the Board of Education, gave
an explanation to the INDE-
PENDENT yesterday regarding
the Boards action. When the
young men returned to their
native land there were no good
vacancies in the schools to be
filed. When the small schools
in question became vacant just
before the Easter vacation,
Messrs. Keliinoi and King were
given the option of taking
charge of them until the next
vacation rather than being idle,
at the same time being inform
ed that the positions were not
to be deemed a criterion of the
Boards estimate of their ability
or competence. They readily
and cheerfully accepted the
position.
In his letter of April 80, the
Honolulu correspondent Of the
Chronicle is good enough to
assert that the protector of the
INDEPENDENT "says his paper
will have negative policy and
will criticize the Government
at every available point" and
"has placed an Englishnan and
a Dane, both bitter anti-Amer-
leans, at it's head" Both state
