Timely Topics.
Honolulu, Sept. go, 1895.

All over the world at present
questions of hygiene are the
main issues of the day. While
the learned scientists of Europe
are devoting their time and
skill to find remedies which
can destroy the disease breeding
germs, the diseases go on and
cholera, diptheria and typhoid
ravage cities and countries.
Whenever a disease becomes
epidemic it is because the germ
found conditions which suited
it and in which it felt at home
and ready for business. The
sanitary conditions of the town
and of the home becomes of
vital Importance. Honolulu is
having a taste Of a cholera cpl
demic and it behooves every
body to do his best in placing
every home in the best sanitary
condition possible.
When the general house-clean-
ing which will take place next
Monday is over, many house
keepers will find some house
hold furniture which needs re-
newal and others missing both
as to utility and convenience.
We call attention to-day to
our Oil Stoves. The "Dietz"
Stove which we carry in stock
has gained a great reputation
everywhere. The one we espe-
cially recommend is the most
complete oil stove ever offered
in the market. 1t is perfectly
safe for the user of it, and it
will answer all purposes in a
well regulated household. Five
quarts of oil is sufficient to burn
ten to twelve hours. In ten
minutes half gallon water can
be boiled. 1t will fry and boil,
bake or broil at the same time.
You can boil potatoes and bake
biscuit at the same time. In
ten minutes you can broil
steak to perfection, and in an
hour and half you can roast
an eight pound turkey. Once
tried the "Dietz' Oil Stove will
be found the very thing for the
housekeeper, and the price
brings it within the reach of
everybody.
The Water Coolers which we
have on hand are the very
things for restaurants, saloons,
schools and stores. After the
water is boiled fill the cooler
with it, and even without ice, it
will keep pleasant tempera-
ture. Large families will find
these highly ornamental coolers
of great advantage and a great
saving in regard to ice.
What, however, is more USE
ful than Monarch Bicycle. In
San Francisco and other places
mail and paper carriers, busi-
ness men and professional men
use the Monarch, and have
within the diamond arranged
leather bag, very easily fixed,
which will contain paper, docu-
ment, lunches and clothing and
do service as the saddle bags do to
the horseman. The Monarch is

tanned wide circulation through the
country at an early hour this morning
that President Cleveland had been as
sassinated at his home at Gray Ga
bIes, near Buzzard's Bay. Concerning
this rumor the following message has
just been received from Boston:
''All telephone connection with BuZ-
yards Bay is through New Bedford.
Cannot raise Buzzard's Bay, nor has
it been on the wire since o'clock. New
Bedford operators say nothing could
have gone out of BuZZard's Bay by
telephone without their knowing it..
Hence they believe nothing in the re-
port Western Union closed at Buzz
Yards Bay a. long time ago"
According to a report received at
the New York office of the Associated
Press from New Bedford, Mass, early
this morning a woman was murdered
in the suburbs of New Bedford last
night. The police while searching for
the murderer passed within sight of

The war department officials were
much disappointed and chagrined at
the decision of Judge Bradley in the
Armes case. Secretary Lamont refused
to say what his purpose was, but it
IS inferred in view of the breadth of
the decision, that no attempt will be
made to try the captain by court
martial pending the action of the APP
pellate court upon the appeal noted
today. The case has outgrown its
original purpose in view of the courts
action today, and now involves, it is
said the whole question of the amena-
bllity of retired officers to discipline.
