MA YOU Ever See n Pure Tortoise Shell
Tom1?-Cats That Look Like Bulldogs.

DIu YOU Ever See n Pure Tortoise Shell
Tom?-Cats That Look Like Bulldogs.
It Is estimated that there are $50, 900
cats il England and 60 varieties. With
the greater number Of these varieties the
average reader is probably quite unfa-
miliar.
Tortoise shell and white toms are very
common, says an English writer, but Il
pure tortoise shell tom is SO extremely
scarce that many people declare that
they exist only i'll the imagination.
Any Il who happens to possess a fe-
male rcd, tabby without any white spots
could otD1ain Il price which would keep
him i'll comfort for at least a couple of
years without work. Female red tabbies
are as rare as tortoise shell toms.
The taste i'll Persian cats just now
runs Oh the deep tue with orange col
ored eyes. Edward Lloyd, the tenor, had
one for which he repeatedly refused
$50. The bright slate or blue is a ia
vorite variety of the Persian, the price
sometimes going as high as 1925.
White cats Of really herculean proper
tons readily fetch $500. The Marquis
Of Dutferin is extremely partial to white
cats, upward Of adozen Of these splendid
creatures being comfortably domiciled
at the British embassy in Paris.
Russian cats fetch high prices. The
Duchess Of Bedford owns several Of a
species extremely rare-a very curious
tint Of blue. Russian white cats are also
highly priced, but the white variety is
seldom long haired.
Mr.. Sam Woodiwiss is the owner Of a
smooth haired tom, Xenophon, of such
gigantic proportions that when the
writer, after an introduction, induced
the cat to approach by calling i'll seduc-
tive accents, he experienced a feeling
akin to dismay as the mammoth jumped
on his knee, which in the course of a
few moments began to exhibit unmis-
taxable signs Of fatigue, and no wonder
for Is pounds is a fair weight. Xeno-
phon is valued by its owner at SIP, 800.
Lady de Trafford has cats of such re-
markahle ueliness that the writer for a
moment took them for a hairy sort of
bulldog.
The value Of cats is much enhanced if
they possess the black markings on the
chest known as the Lord Mayors
chain" The writer has seen a cat Of
this sort for which the owner would not
take s., 800.
Some cats are actually vegetarians,
and a curious variety from Burma will
only drink water.

The New Process.

In a warm climate like ours the
people are always striving to get a
fuel that will be economical and at
the same time effective.
The objections to gasoline in this
country has always been the danger
of explosion, and the objection is
based solely upon the fact that two
accidents occurred here some years
ago from its use. The idea that
Improvements could be made in
gasoline stoves does not seem to
have occurred to some of the people
here, but such is the case. There
is no more danger in using a New
Process gasoline stove than there is
in using one that burns wood or
coal. You couldn't explode, one
try as hard as you may, because the
manufacturers have provided
against any such contingency. c.
V. Sturdevant, agent for the New
Process in the Warning Block, has
one Of the old style which he exhi-
bits for the purpose of showing Gus
toners the difference between the
old and the new. He has twenty
different styles and sizes OF the new
stoves which he sells at surprising
ly low prices.

Suez Canal Traffic in 1894.

Suez Canal traffic for 1894 is re-
ported by Consul-General f. c..
Penfeld, OF Carlo, as follows: The
number of vessels passing was
1852, 10 in excess of 1898, and the
amount received from tolls was
$14,770,0S1. In 1874 only 1864
vessels used the canal. The year
of largest business was 1891, when
1906 steamers passed through. By
reason of the application of electric
light nearly 95 percent of the YES
sells using the canal in 1894 were
enabled to travel at night. Only 5
American ships passed the canal
war ships and yachts. The British
ships numbered 1894 of 6,006,902
aggregate tonnage. Germany sent
294 ships through. France 1874
and Holland 1873. The aggregate
net tonnage of all ships in 1894
was 8,059, 100 tons. .

1T HAS BEEN REMARKED
by visitors that for variety
of goods, quality and style, the
shops of Honolulu compare
favorably with those in the
largest cities in the United
States. These remarks are not
strange to us because we are
familiar with the needs of the
people, we know that their
tastes are the same as other
people, though they are to a
degree isolated from the rest
of the world. But they area
reading people and they are
apt scholars; they have the
same amount of ability ito
copy the ideas of others or
create new ones as the ladies
of New York or Boston. To
cater to the tastes of the
different people here reuuires
tact, ability and coin; in the
selection of goods. both as to
design, quality and price, all
of the business qualifications
of man are brought into play.
If we did not exercise it in
our corner of the mercantile
world how could we offer all
shades of genuine wooden
goods, not shoddy, but wO0lcR
at fifty cents a yard, when
every other dealer in Homo
lulu sells the identical goods
for seventy-five cents and ii
dollar. Nor do we confne
ourselves to a single shade
we have them in endless va
riety.
The same may be said of
our stock of all-wool flannels.
Who ever heard of them going
for less than fifty cents a yard.
They bring that because they
are worth it TO any one who
wants them, but we let them
go to you at thirty-five cents
a yard, or three yards for a
dollar. You can't realize it
but we can prove it to you as
easy as we can show you the
largest and handsomest collec-
ton of white goods of every
description ever shown in
Honolulu.
The goods are here and the
wearing qualities are guaran-
teed; we are ashamed to men
ton the prices out of'consider-
alton of the feelings of oul
rivals; they're low enough Of
that you may be assured.
A drive in shoes interests
every one-our stock includes
all sorts and conditions fOl
men. women and children
and to go with the shoes we
have "a wonderful collection
of hosiery for ladies.

POINTERS AS TO THE PARTIES.

The declaration of the Democrats in
convention at Springfield, Illinois, and
the fulminations of the Republicans
in state convention at Louisville, Ken
lucky, are pointers as to the prevail
ing sentiment in either party in refer
ence to silver
The free coinage of both gold and
silver at the existing ratio by the
| United States without waiting for the
action of any other nation, was unan-
| imously demanded by the Illinois con-
vention. 1t was a most enthusiastic
gathering and indicates the drift of
Democratic feeling in the great state
of Illinois.
In the Republican convention at
Louisville. the free coinage of silver
was denounced as "a rank financial
heresy which must be stamped out"
The resolution on finance declared:
I'VE are opposed to the free and I'M
limited coinage of silver, believing it
would involve the country in financial
ruin
We do not dispute the fact that there
are Democrats who hold just such views
as those expressed in the Kentucky
Republican platform, nor that there
are Republicans who endorse the de-
claration in the Illinois Democratic
platform. But the difference is this:
The free silver demand voices the
opinions Of the majority of Demo-
Gratis, and the anti-silver enunciation
tells the desire of the majority of Re-
publicans.
That is big difference and is
notice to free silver men of all par
ties that in the Democratic party Will
be their hope for success. Republican
ism means recommendation under the
guise of International bimetallism.
That may be put down as certain.
All the prominent men of the Re-
publican party are for that kind Of
bimetallism when they talk to silver
men, and for the gold standard when
they talk to bankers and straight
goldites generally. The tendency of
Republican sentiment is in that d.
rection.
1t is the duty of all silver Demo-
Gratis 10 spread the silver sentiment,
and so discipline the party that it's de-
claration for free gold and silver coin
age shall be by a majority Of such |
numbers that the objections of the |
minority will be silenced, and the |
Democratic party will stand irrevoca-
bly, committed to the restoration of |
silver to its monetary position previ-
Gus to 1873.
