FOOLISH TALK.

While the war between japan
and China was in progress, the
many people of both nationalities
in Honolulu behaved themselves
with the utmost propriety. There
was never the slightest disturb
ance between the two races here,
nor even any manifestation of bit.
ter feeling. The conduct of our
Oriental fellow residents on that
occasion is an, example worthy to
be followed now by American
and British residents during the
existence of the present contro-
versy between their countries.
1t Is therefore with great regret
that wo find the Independent
publishing a bitter partisan letter
on the controversy. Such public
utterances in this country are en-
tirely out # place and tend to
create n national ill-feel-
ing that is altogether un-
called-for aud mischievous. OF a
piece with the letter in question
is the reported expression of ex-
Minister Castle before leaving for
Washington, in which he pre-
sumes to give the sentiments of
''our people" before there was
time for him to receive any COM
munication from Hawaii on the
subject. AS Great Britain has for
many years assented to the para
mount influence of the United
States in Hawaii, the remarks of
Mr. Castle il. accurately reported
are extremely injudicious and
very much away from the mark.
Moreover, the Venezuelan dispute
having its origin on the American
continent, the reported reference
OF Mr.. Castle to the Pacific ocean
sounds like the chatter of a
schoolboy in the primary grade.
War between the United States
and Great Britain would involve
the possibility of untold calamity
to Honolulu and these islands, so
that anybody living here who
views with qualification any
serious difficulty between the two
nations is simply fool.

MUNlTION, ETC. ETC.

Christmas is over but there
are plenty of ducks and turkeys
flying about the ponds, marsh
es and woods of these islands,
and there are plenty of hunters
who will take advantage of
the numerous holidays between
now and Washington's birth
day to try and get a shot at
them. To insure a good bag
of game on one of these trips,
the hunter must have a good
gun, good ammunition and
good dogs. The Hawaiian
Hardware Company will fit
you out with gun and am
munition and if you haven't
got a good dog why you can
borrow one. We make a spe-
cialty of reloading outfits,
shells and ammunition of
all kinds to suit any bore and

sportsrrien.
In rifle and pistol cartridges
we have a large supply to fit
any weapons.

gone but the holidays are not
over. You will want to pur-
chase some little reminder of
the New Year for your better
half, and we are just the people
to find something that will
suit you without running
you in debt or mortgaging
your property. We have a
small lot of that beautiful
aluminium ware left, compris-
ing handsomely engraved hair
brushes, mirrors, clothes brush
es, jewelry cases and such like.
We have many useful and
ornamental articles in solid sill
yer or plated ware, cut glass
goods, lamps and lamp shades,

sinking, and ran alongside the Sea-
ford, whereupon the passengers and

By the way, Sgnora Buses perform

helped revive the interest in her coun-
trymen in GoldCni'S comedies. 4
Naples correspondent writes: Last
night a Venetian company Of come
dams performed at the Sannazzaro
theater a play Of Goldoni's which has
not been seen on the stage for a hun
dred years. 1t was in fact, reSusci-
ated, and proved to be very gay and ex-
hilarating. The plot is briefly as fol-
lows: An eX-cook, a Venetian, who
turned merchant, became bankrupt
and finally got rich, comes to Paris
with his daughter and takes rooms in a
hotel. To the same hotel comes his
former master, an Italian, also with
his daughter. The Venetian takes it
into his head TO place an advertise
ment in the Partisan papers describ-
ing the virtue and attractions of his
daughter. and inviting competition on
the part of would-be husbands.
SuitOrs are attracted, but a mistake is
made as to the young lady in ques-
ton, the Italian being taken for the
Venetian, and there ensues a series of
misconceptions on all sides, which fin
ally end with each Of the young ladies
being engaged 10 the man she loves.

Paris, Aug. PA serious attempt
was made yesterday upon the life OF
Baron AlphonSe d'Rothschild. 4
large, heavy envelope was received at
the bank addressed to the baron and
opened by NJ. Zadkov1tz. his confiden-.
tial clerk, a well-known banker. Just
as the clerk opened the envelope it ex-
ploded with great force, tearing his
right eye out and blowing off some of
his fingers.
The police We're hastily summoned
and an investigation Immediately
commenced. The remains of the
strange envelope were picked up and
examined with the result that the po-
lice officers expressed the opinion that
it was nothing more than an Internal
machine. The police are unanimous
In the opinion that the outrage is the
work Of anarchists. The bank itself
was not damaged and very little
damage was done to the private office
in which the explosion occurred.
The attention of Zadkovitz was OIL
rected especially to this letter because
Of the bulky package and the number
Of seals used. Thinking it a legal
document of considerable Importance
he inserted a penknife into the cover
of the package, when the edge of the
knife caught upon something, since
ascertained to be a string concealed
in the envelope. The act of cutting
this string exploded a cap which ig-
nited the deadly contents. The police
are using every effort to discover
where the letter was posted

Whose face is tanned by wind and

Who beauties and tills the soil,
Whose crown by right divine is won

CHINESE ARE OFFISH,
NO FOREIGNERS WANTED AT
THE KU CHENG INQUIRY.
But the Americans and British Mean
To Be There Just the
Same.

Washington, Aug. 21.-The state
department has been informed that
there was some disposition on the
part of the Chinese officials not to al
low the American and British officers
to be present at the investigation of
the Ku Cheng riots. in every case
where there has been an investiga-
ton of this kind proposed some OBJ
jections have been made, the Chinese
officials feeling that they may lose
prestige if they allow the foreigners
to participate in their proceedings in
court. These objections have always
ended in the submission of the Chi
nese after some days delay. 1t is
authoritatiyely stated the instruc-
tons to Minister DENLY cover all the
questions now in controversy ard that
the investigation will be conducted in
such manner as will allow the
American representative to secure
full information as to the cause of the
riots and the persons participating in
them.
The assurance is also given
that this will be done in
such a manner as to
leave nothing for complaint by the
American people ON the score of fail
ure. 1t is not believed by the state
department that the refusal of the
Chinese authorities will do more than
delay the investigation for a time un-
til the Chinese government can direct
the officers at Ku Cheng to accord the
American and British officials the
right to be present and direct the in
Vestigation into channels which win
bring out the facts.
