The Hawaiian star. [volume] (Honolulu [Oahu]) 1893-1912, 1895-11-08

The cleanest, brightest safest and really,
in the long run, the cheapest and hest light
for use in the family residence, is the incan-
descent electric light. Safe; nothing could
be safer. A few days ago prominent gen
tleman of Honolulu came rushing down to
the office of the Electric Company and said:
"Give me figures for wiring my house, and |
want it done at once; no more lamps for me.
Last night a lamp tipped over and it came
so near setting fire to the house and burning
my children and take no more risks"
This is the sentiment of quite number in
the past few weeks, who have ordered their
houses fitted with the perfect light.
Just think it over and make up your mind
that you want the best and safest light; send
for the Hawaiian Electric Company and tel
them what you want.
We have a complete stock of everything in
this line and have just received a lot of the
very latest designs in chandeliers.

CITY AND COUNTY.

W. R. Lynch, miner, has been in Tucson to get medical treatment for a centipcde sting.
 The wife of Thomas Shean, killed by L. M. Lemon at IIarshaw couple of weeks ago, spent some time in jail Tuesday forenoon for contempt of court, but she WIS afterward released on habeaus corpus. A curious thing about this case is that Lemon has not yet been bound over and it deyolves upon Justice Meyers to say whether or not Shcan's dying statement is sufficient evidence.
 The shelter at Tucson will blow about September 18th. This will be done for the purpose of deter mining whether or not certain needed improvements are to be made. A large slag dump is needed and the question of raising the shelter or of building aa entirely new plant will be determined. In the meantime Mir Hamilton, the manager, is anxious to purchase all available ores.
 The Citizen thus mentions well known citizen of Nogales: W. c. Fer guson, an old time Arizonan, who came here in 1860 and made his home hereabouts for many years Is again in this city Of late he has been resi- dent of Nogales and had small mail contract at that point, but at relet- ting of the route the old man was un- der bid. He Is badly paralyzed. He says that it was reported in Nogales that Hon. Sam Hughes who came to Tucson in 1858, had cut new set of teeth and he had come here to see him and file his application for the receipt.

ORC BLANoo ITEMS.

Crocum & Mitchell have received all their machinery and will soon have it in operation on ore from their mine.
 Mir. Barclay, who has working bonds on the Austerlitz and adjacent prop critics, is about letting contracts to sink several shafts.
 Tuesday Mir. George w. Cheyney of the Montana, went to Tucson for a day-t thence home to Tombstone for q short visit with his family.
 At the Montana MT. Cheyney is ex- perimenting on the taillngs, which carry considerable value, and if his experiments are satisfactory he will erect small cyanide plant.
 On the first of September General ]. R. Allen (Pi Allen, more familiarly known) sold his store, at the Montana camp, to Al Bernard. This week Mir. Bernard is in Tucson, stocking up.
 The Montana mill started again on the l6th ut. This week large ship ment of concentrates was sent to the Fl Paso smelter They go via Tucson there being an advantage of Sl.30 per ton by that route.
 Mir. Hart is in the east purchasing material to replace that lost in the recent high water. The dam will be rebuilt at once, with hope of catch ing water from the fall rains, so a run can be made during the winter.
 Prescott & Began have leased the old Arivaca mill and are putting it in good repair for run on ore from their Sorrel Top mine, which is turning out some very good rock. They have one pay streak which is remarkably rich and holding out very well.
 While lying idle for want of water this summer, MT. Geo. W. Cheney has added sixteen foot puddle to his con- centrator, and there are now three in operation two twelve feet in dia- meter, and the third of sixteen feet. A fourth is in course of construction, and it will be used to work the slums from the other three.

The Exchange 6ank Directors Finally
Decide Upon New Building.
If new building enterprises keep
coming to the front at the rate they
have for a few weeks past, the coming
season will be an unusually active and
prosperous one for the building
trades. The latest addition to the list
is the Excange Bank building. This
has been discussed within and with
ont the corporation for five or six
years past, and has many times been
referred to in the local press as a de-
sirable addition to the modern bust
ness houses Of Wheeling. After mvch
discussion. the directory Of The bank
at a meeting held yesteday, dehnltly
decided the matter in favor of a new
house and an architect Will be Sc
lected as soon as possible. and plans
prepared to met the ideas of the bank
management
This building, taken in connection
with the George E. Stifel & Co build
ing. adjoining, will make a notable
and striking change in that portion OF
Main street, and add very materially
to the growth of modern Wheeling.
Rumors CT ona or two other build
ings in contemplation have been cur
rent for some time, but 1t would be
premature as yet to partcularlze.

that l am very favorably impressed
with the canal scheme. He appears
to be very enthusiastic in the mat
ter. 1t certainly looks more feasible
than the Eria ship canal, and will be
of more direct benefit to this commu-
nifty. A great deal of the work has
already been done, and nature has
materially assisted for portion of the
remaining distance. With the canal
completed and in operation, a railroad

Every comrade in the Department is earn

departed comrades, and to give no countenance
| 10 such frivolous smusements as detract from
! its solemn observance.
AS the comrades bend over the graves of
the heroes and srew then with the sweet
| fowers of early Summer, may the tender
thoughts this act inspires strengthen the ties
oil comradeshfp and draw their hearts nearer
| aud closer together.
1T is earnestly ommended that all Posts
throughout the Department attend and psrtci-
pate IN appropriate religious services upon that
day, and invite the sons and families of vet
Grams to join with them. The God of battles
preserved our lives and restored us TO our
homes and the rewards OF peace In grateful
acknowledgment of this merciful favor the

nizes the Christian religion as the bulwark Of

The near approach of Memorial Day.

Let each comrade zealously strive to make
this day more bonored and marked than any
preceding ones, and to this end Commanders
are requested to form their committees of the
more active energetic comrades; thus, by pro-
grams, interesting and concise, we shall pre-
vent the straying of the Indifferent comrades
and bring to active participation all who have
ever been identified with US. As Memorial
Day has been made by National and State
thority general holiday, we should dis
countenance any attempt to take from it the
sacredness with which it has been surrounded
by its honored founder, Gen. John A. Logan,
and should endeavor to prevent public demon

against any of the old boys in gray marching

Now, protest against such foolish action. /
spent nearly four years of the best of my life
in the war for the purpose OF convincing those

destroy this grand Union, and we did it. and
we are glad OF it, and they. To-day
those same old boys would hasten to the front
ms quickly as we TO strike down the hand that
would dare to strike the old Stars and Stripes.
When those two grandest Generals the world
ever knew shook hands and said let us have
peace, they meant all OF Us, and we are happy
TO know that the largest share of the old boys
that tried so hard TO win their cause are to-day
as glad as we are that the Stars and Stripes is
the only flag that Goats over the fairest land
Bn this globe.
/ for one am making all haste to get to Lou

old comrades and If any of the Confederate
boys wish to fail in and have q good old march

Nation now and one flag. Gems. Grant and
Lee buried the Ratchet and have long since

Now, my dear old boys Of the blue and of the
