WITH the splendid addition to
the Leper band fund from the re-
turns Of Saturday nights lecture,
the new instruments for which the
ADVERTISER issued a plea not long
since, are assured. The direct con-
tributions have been numerous, but
We would not presume to cast the
indirect contributions in the shade.
Nothing could be more acceptable
than the universal response which
has been accorded the lectures
given by Captain Cochrane. While
every one got their moneys worth,
there is a deal of satisfaction in
knowing that the money is to be
used in forwarding a worthy OBJ
ject. Captain Cochrane's good
will is shown not alone in the lee
ture which was entertaining and
instructive to so many, but in the
hard work and attention to prelim-
mary details which go quite as
much to make up the final success.
Band instruments and music may
have but g passing thought in the
minds of those in the outside
world to whom such matters are
an every day affair, but who
can tell the happiness that will be
brought in this way to the lives of
the unfortunate exiles on Molokai.

COMMISSIONER ARMSTRONG calls
attention to the aggressive work of
the Chinaman in the coffee lands
of Maui and says the whites are
sleeping. We do not believe this
was intended to give the i'm
preston that the white coffee
pioneers are by any means dead to
the opportunities and necessities of
the times, it at the same time re-
minds them that they must be up
and doing, and not allow rich
prizes to slip through their fingers
into the hands of the Chinese.
Don't take the latter to task be-
cause he has taken advantage Of
what white settlers are slow in as
Stunning control.

VOICE OF THE PRESS.

The United States is not required
by any obligation of honor or comfy
to pension the ex queen of the Ha-
waiian Islands, but, on the other
hand, she is warranted in looking to
certain citizens of the United States
for pecuniary support. Beyond a
doubt President Cleveland ought to
start a subscription, putting himself
down for a handsome amount. Ten
thousand year, we should say, would
be suitable income for Liliuokalani,
aid if the President guaranteed one
half of that sum, only 10 per cent of
his annual salary, the other half, we
should hope, would be contributed by
the rest of her adherents in this coun-
try who have aided him in bringing
her into her present wretched condi-
tion.-New York Tribune.
Unless Joaquin Miller is the victim
of q vicious reporter, he has returned
from Honolulu in estate of mind"
The press dispatches make him say
some very absurd things about the
situation over there. His reported
account of the suffocating condition of
those confined for rebellion, is quite as
horrifying as the story of the tricing of
Captain Davies by the thnmbs-and
about as reliable. 1t is difficult to de-
wise penal institution superior to that
of Hawaii in the matter of free
access to the open air on the
part of it's inmates. And so of about
everything else the irate poet is re-
ported as decrying. That the prison
is at present crowded abode is quite
likely, and that the situation will be
relieved by judicious pardons. or other
arrangement, as soon as practicable is
quite probable. The bysterical man
ner of Mr.. Miller's protest leaves us to
infer there is a story back of his fall
ing out with the "misssonaries," for
whom, until now, he has had only
good words.-Pacific Christian Advo-
cate, Portland, Or.

STRANGE CASE OF MR.. JOHN LTFTLEJOHN.
Paine's Celery Compound CURES When
Ordinary Remedies Fail.

The position OF the physician who deals
with the nervous and the feeble, the
pain.worn, the hysterical, the sleepless,
is one of the utmost gravity.
Prolonged strain of mind and body, or
OF both, is apt to result all too quickly IN
sudden collapse
One OF the greatest physicians the
world has ever seen, who was for years
the most prominent man upon the faculty
of Dartmouth, realizing the extent of the
physicians responsibility, set about to
discover a remedy that should build up
the nervous system, and cure the ills
that result from Impoverished blood and
diseased nerves. He discovered that
greatest of all remedies, Paine's Celery
Compound, and submitted the formula
10 fellow physicians.
There WAS no secr.t about it, The
formula from that time until now has
been furnished, whenever asked for, to
reputable physicians, and they have time
and again examined it, and knowing
that it is good, have recommended it to
those who are sick.
No other remedy was ever SO highly
endorsed, and so generally used and re-
commended by physicians.
DIR. William Horne, who for a dozen
years has been one of the most prominent
editors, of and writer's for, medical jour
nails, writing in May OF last year, said:
81 have been using Paine's Celery
Compound for six weeks for myself and
wife. l am, like all graduated NJ DIS,

after reading Commodore Howell's letter.

"For five years I have been afflicted
each season with excessive nervousness ;
so sensitive was l that any little
noise caused me to start and hutter. This
extreme nervous condition induced an
unpleasant affliction of eczema, a partly
nervous disease with me. For five sea
sons l have been full of itching, red erup-
tive spots. Three weeks ago, this condi-
ton came upon me again, but with much
more excessive nervous prostration.I COM

John Littlejohn complained to me of a

diagnosis was the same as any own, al
though we had neither of us known any
thing about the others diagnosis
There was some unsteady twitching of
the facial muscles on the right side, and
especially of the right eye.
Mr.. Littlejohn seemed to be COM
pletely unbalanced and 'jerl1y,' and
quite unsteady. This is a truthful state
ment of Mr.. Lttlejohn's condition. He
tried every conceivable remedy, by the
recommendation of some eight or ten
physicians in GAINESVILLE, Chicago, Mil
waukee, and other places. All the treat
ment failed to relieve him. l recon-
mended Paine's Celery Compound.
''He tried it, and by a steady, persis-
tent use OF the Celery Compound, he
completely cured himself of the worst
case of extreme nervous prostration and
excitement that l ever saw. Mr.. Little
John informs me that he has spent over

completely cured him."
Mr. Littlejohn himself writes:
81 have been a travelling man for
great many years, and the exposure and
worry that follow business transactions,
caused me to break down with nervous
prostration so that for several days they
thought 1 was dying. Besides this, /
had the creeping paralysis in my left arm,
hand, and side, so that they were almost
entirely useless, and had a most severe
case of catarrh to the extent that it al

not to try a bottle of this wonderful

Mr.. Ashford was long enough
in Hawaii to convince the peo-
| pie that he can tell the differ
ence between "a 'awk han a
'au saw" and that he under
stands full well the value of
silence. He has about as
much intention of heading
flibustering expedition as he
has of returning here and
standing as a candidate for
office. c. w. is a little Joker
and the interview with the re-
porter in Frisco was one of his
Jokes. When Mr.. Ashford
left here, his main thought
was to do something in the
behalf of his brother. The
people here who know him
will not believe that a flibus-
tering expedition is in the line
of assistance to that person.
Some time ago, we pur-
chased a lot of European wire
and Immediately afterward
some parties circulated a re-
port that the quality had been
affected by some unknown
cause and that it was not up
to the standard of the -Ams-
ericaaa product. We had a half
dozen coils of the wire tested
at the Iron Works and it
showed a tensile strength of
276o pounds. When this re-
port was published in this
column, the wire was sought
after by plantation managers
and individuals from Niihau to
Hawaii. The other day, to OBJ
lige a skeptic, we ordered a
hundred coils of American
wire from the Coast and as
it reached the store, we sent
half dozen coils to the foun-
dry to have it tested. The
result showed a tensile
strength of 768 pounds or
about 1000 less than the Eu-
ropean article. We violate no
confidence when we tell you
that this American wire will
not be sold by us. We have
an abundance of the European
article and can supply all sizes
and in any quantity. This wire
with the steel stays and gal
vanized washers comprise the
material necessary to use in
making the celebrated Jones
Locked Fence than which no
stronger, cheaper or better
fence was ever made.
Our new stock of Dietz Oil
Stoves are going as rapidly as
can be expected with times as
hard as they are. That it is a
good stove, no one who has
ever tried them will deny.
They are absolutely safe, be-
cause there is no possible way
by which they can explode;
they are free from unpleasant
odors, because they are made
on the most approved plans;
they are economical, because
directly you are through
cooking you extinguish the
fame. Twenty-four dollars in
vested in one of these stoves
will save you pot of money
in twelve months.
The Australia brought us
the latest thing in tea strainers;
they fasten close up to the
spout and the leaves are bound
to be caught in the strainer.
Handsomely nickelplated and
we sell them for a quarter of

The English believe This.

The following is the sort of thing which
the English love TO read about Americans.
1t is from London Tid-Bits:
''Pets are mostly kept for the purpose IF
merely being petted, though, now and again
they are taught to make themselves useful
The latest instance of the useful pet is the
case OF the two apes which have been
trained to act as caddies in the now profess
sionaI game OF golf. The catldie is indis-
pensa be to a golf PLAYER, and Miss Dent,
whose brother, Lieut.. Dent, of the United
States navy. has recently returned from the
China station, has two Formosa apes which
he brought her and which they have trained
to the business OF caddies. They wear liver
les OF white duck and each has n Turkish
fez. Miss Dent is capital golf pla yer and
to see her on the links of the Bath Beach
Cub, San Francisco, attended by her apes,
is the latest nsltion In that locality"
This may, of course, be true, but whether
it is or not makes good reading and would
be most acceptable TO the English, who are
seldom interested in us save when We are
grOteSuue.
