machinery IS sought after
\ Men whose minds take an in,
ventive turn put the energies
in this direction more than any
other, the manufacturers de-
mand it and the inventors are
trying to fill the demand. We
have among our goods prob
ably a hundred different arti-
cles designed for this purpose.
Among the most important of
these are the implements used
| in the cultivation of sugar cane
land. Take first the Fertilizer
| Distributor, a machine worked
by one man that will distribute
the fertilizer over nine acres
of land in one day. 1t not
only saves labor but it does
the work more thoroughly and
with absolutely no waste of
material. Our orders for this
article have exceeded the de-
mand and we have been obi
ged to order more. The Cane
Cultivators from the same
factory are recognized on Ha-
waii to be much superior to
anything of the kind ever used
here. These implements are
not experiments, they have
been used for a long time in
Louisiana where they have
given great satisfaction.
The Wertheim Duplex Sew
ing machine is more of a labor
saver than any other make,
because it does a greater
variety of work. Every lady
knows the trouble it is to sew
ruf1es, and that a machine that
will sew just what is necessary
for rufles is not the stitch that
answers for making boys
trousers. It's a labor saver
that will sew both and the
Wertheim is the only one that
sdsU. 1t not only sews the
chain and lock stitch, but it
makes a combination of both
that is as pretty an embroidery
stitch as you want to see. Wei
have a number of these
machines in . various styles Of
finish, the highest priced one
is cheaper than you can get
an ordinary machine for. You
save money and save labor in|
getting a Wertheim.
These occasional rains CAUSE
havoc with the water by max
ing it muddy and impure. We
have been selling the Improved
Stone Filter which makes it as
clear as a crystal. There is
another and very celebrated
filter called the "Pasteur."
We have made arrangements
for handling this article which
is exclusively used in public |
institutions, places of business
and private houses in the
United States. One of them |
has been placed in the Queens |
Hospital and after a careful
test in fltering muddy water, |
milk and oil combined, a
Honolulu physician says:
T have examined the 'Pasteur
Filter manufactured by the Pasteur |
Chamberlain Company. 1 consider it |
the most efficient filter 1 have ever !
seem" !
These filters are rented to |
persons or sold outright as
preferred. Parties desiring to
examine one can communicate
with us and Mr.. H. L. Theron
will call upon them at their
residence or place of business
and thoroughly explain the
working of it. We expect a
large. business in this article
and from testimonials we have
examined we have no hesita-
ton in guaranteeing it to be a
superior article.
Our stock of hanging lamps
for people who do not use
electric lights (as well as those
who do) is as complete as any
to be found in Honolulu. Our
island trade in this respect is
so large that we are Obliged

DAVID MANLEY BIRD, JR.
Special Agent & Engineer

David Marley Bird, Jr. was born in
Abingdon, Va February 8, 1858, died
september 10, lS95-Age % years,
months and days
This brief notice does not convey
much TO theput lie. but TO his relatives
and friends who knew and loved him,
it means the passing away of young
man, who, had he lived, IN view of his
intelligence, would have done much
towards the betterment OF his race.
The services were held at his late
residence, No. Al Pilling Street, East
New York, Brooklyn, the Reverend ].
NJ Henderson, pastor of Bethel
Church, New York City, officiating.
In the course of his remarks he said !:
The teachings of the Lord J esus
have given TO man new conception
of death Before he came into the
world, the departure of man from this
life was not understood. The teach
ings OF Christ have brought out a clear
er understanding. In no place in the
old testament is death spoken OF hope
fully or cheerfullys but in the new tes-
lament, every thought is hopeful and
comforting. Death is but the brother
of the sleep that comes to the son of
every day toll We know now, that
sleep is not mere loss or conscious
! ness, but a rest to all the faculties.
Death comes not to put q period 80
our existence. 1t does not put an end
TO our life. And when we look upon
the face as we see it in the casket, do
we not believe the teachings OF the
/ scriptures, and that he now lives in q
higher life If we so believe. we can
derive much comfort and consolation
Another thought that is comfort
| ing-it would be hard not to think
that from death there shall be an awak
ening, but if death be asleep, then
| there shall be morning.

TIE speech of Prof. Booker T.
WASHINGTON at the opening of the At
lanta Exposition was magnificent eff
fort and places him in the forefront of
the representatives of our. race in this
country. Calm, dispassionate, logical,
winning, it captivated the vast assem-
blage who heard it and caused a re-
echoing sound of approval on the part
of those who caught the rounded SEN
fences and rhetorical periods as they
were flashed over the wires.
Reserved in his manner, earnest in
the delivery, realizing fully the heavy
responsibility resting upon him, he
performed that duty with an ease that
was magnetic and a grace that was di-
vine.

THE sensation produced by the ac-
ton of the Grand Fountain, U. o. of
True Reformers in voting to pay Rev.
w. w. BROWNE fifty thousand dollars
for copyrigh5, the securing of which
cost him only one dollar in Washing
ton has by no means abated.
1t is now apparent to the most casual
observer that this action marks the be-
ginning of the end. The assertions
will be on the most wholesale order
unless something is done to relieve the
Situation and satisfy the brotherhood
relative to this monumental blunder.
Can Rev BROWNE be made to realize
the dangers of the existing situation :?
Can he be induced to pause before it is
too late VIII patriotism and love of
the organization which he founded
prove superior to selfshness or will he
SHYLooK-like insist upon the pound of
flesh denominated in the bond VIII
he insist upon having the fifty thous-
and dollars for that copyright, the Sc
curing of which cost him one dollar ?
We shall see.
The legal side of the question is one
that will yet in all probability be ap-
pealed to, unless Rev. BROWNE rises
superior to personal aggrandizement
and proves himself more public-spirit-
ed than his recent actions would seem
to indicate.
Throughout the length and breadth
of the organization, the blighting effect
of this remarkable action may be seen
and an increase of the membership is
out Of the question.

Dear Sir
In view of the widespread de-
sire to exhibit road materials at the
Atlanta Exposition and in order to oc-
cupy the space allowed to the best ad-
vantage, it has been decided to receive

er ones by freight, and all specimens
which can be sent in time for the o.
pening of the road parliament on Oc-
tober 18th, Will be received and ar
ranged for exhibition by states and
counties, and these specimens will be
transferred to Washington for perma-
nent exhibit there at the close of the
exposition.

the Office of Road Inquiry Department
of Agriculture, Washington, d. c.,
franks and directions for free mailing
Will be promptly furnished to all who
desire to send exhibits.

SOME of the True Reformers thought
that Reverend BROWNE should be paid
one hundred thousand dollars for the
copyright. 1t is surprising that they
did not insist upon giving him this
