an enormous surplus Of dress goods in
the market.

The Suez Canal company has declared
an annual dividend of eighteen per cent.
on the business of 1894. The corpora
tion has seen no hardships in connec-
ton with the prevailing commercial dis
tress The total receipts of the year 1893
amounted to $1s,772,oOO, and of 1894 to
$14, 423, 900. The general working ex-
penses in 1894 were below eleven per
cent. of the earnings. The dividend Of
eighteen per cent. is clear of all taxes
and deductions on account of the share
capital paid in. Repairs have been
made as required, and the work of wild
ening and deepening the route from end
to end has proceeded rapidly, but both
of these classes of expenses have been,
met with the funds already provided
for that purpose.

WELL WORTH SEEING.
Initial Performance of Wirth's Aus
tralian Circus.
An Interesting and Attractive Program
of Daring Feats of Horsemanship
and Trapeze Performances.

All the available space in the big
tent erected at Fort and Beretania
streets was occupied last night, and
many people were compelled to re-
main standing. The initial per-
Torrance of Wirth's Australian
Circus was the attraction and the
show people could not expect any
better reception for an opening
than the one they had.
The performance was a very
attractive one and the program in
cluded many feats that were loud
ly encored by the large audience.
The entertainment opened with an
entree OF the lady and gentlemen
riders in an exhibition of fancy
riding and feats of Workmanship.
Some clever acts on the flying
trapeze followed, and an exhibition
of club swinging by two pretty
little girls in handsome dresses
brought down the house.
The pony Nellie" was put
through some tricks, that showed
almost human instinct, by her
trainer, P. H. Montgomery. w.
Burns and a japanese midget
showed off to fine advantage in a
ladder balancing performance.
Lahl Sing proved himself a star in
the riding line, jumping on and off
his horse while going at full speed,
with perfect ease. Muriel With,
lovely little tot of eight years, per-
formed on the slack wire in a man
ner that would do credit to an old
time slack-wire artist. Miss Nellie
Lyndhurst and Miss Ida Vernon
showed themselves to be expert
bareback riders and appeared per-
fectly at home standing on the
backs of flying steeds.
Burns and Alberto on the flying
trapeze, and Kachaiko, a youthful
japanese bareback rider, received
several rounds of applause for their
daring feats. The clowns were
very amusing, and "The Alabama
Coon" as sung by little Muriel
Wirth, Kate Montgomery and Elsie
st. Leon, served as a pleasing in
terlude between the performances
of older members of the troupe.
The circus is certainly a refined
and modest entertainment and will
without doubt attract full houses
during their stay in Honolulu.
he managers have arranged mat
tiers so that there will be no more
crowding in the reserved seat sec
ton of the tent. The seats will be
numbered hereafter and purchas-
ers can make their selections
week ahead if desirable. A family
matinee will be given tomorrow
afternoon at 8 o'clock for the ladies
and children.

went TO the library for a book Pi~ret treat
ed him very discourteously; that instead or
coming up to the counter and waiting on
him, as he should have done. he loiteFed
behind the bookcases, flirting with
young woman. After Mr.. McEiwain had
waited for Mr.. Pirret to finish his fiirta-
ton, in the hope that his patience would
be rewarded finally, he became restless
and raped loudly on the counter with
his cane. This brought Pirret TO the front,
ed on the now angry justice. \ few days
later. however, he met Justice McElwain
and wanted to know why the latter gem
tleman had been so vociferous in his de-
mands why he had struck the counter
with his cane, etc, and ii is understood
that Mr.. McElwain told him very plainly
what he thought OF his actions.
When Mr.. McEiwain complained to the
board of the treatment he had received at
the hands of the new librarian, the board
called Mr.. Pirret before IL for an explana-
ton. At this examination Pirret denied
having used insulting language while talk
ing TO Mr. McElwain. and claimed that the
language complained of had been used by
the latter gentleman himself Two weeks
ago Pirret appeared before the board and
confessed that he had lied in his state
ments made previously. and said that If he
might be forgiven for his falsehood he
would thereafter try to so conduct himself
that no complaint could be made. Mr..
Pirret was asked yesterday to say some
thing in his own behalf, but declined to
talk. saying that he had made up his mind
to keep out of the whole muddy patch"

HE MEETS THE FACULTY.
President Harrington Maps Out work
of the University \ ear.

President Mark w. Harrington met the
other members of the faculty of the Uni
versity OF Washington at the old universe
ty building yesterday. After the new pres
ident had been introduced 10 his co-work-
ers, a plan was formulated for the con-
duct of the university for the next col
legiate year. Entrance examinations viii
be held in the old building Thursday, Fri
day and Saturday of this week. AT vari-
ance with a former custom, the examina-
tions for each department will be held
under the direction of the head OF that
department. School work in the university
will begin at a. M, a full hour being
given to each recitation. This will per-
NIT the recitation and lecture work to
end early in the forenoon, leaving the rest
OF the day for work in the laboratory and
gymnasium. In the absence of profess
sor of pedagogy, that department will tenn
porarily be in charge of Prof. Bechdolt.
President Harrington said yesterday
that the prospect for the new univers-
ity grew brighter daily, and that his work
was made more pleasing by the hearty re-
ception which had been given him by the
people here President Harrington was
visited yesterday by his brother Rev.
Dr. Harrington. of Salem, Or, who was
in Seattle fourteen years ago. At that
time he came to assume the duties of pas
tor of the old White church, and later he
left, and has since lived in Oregon.

SIX HOURS A DAY.
The Socialist Leaders, Promises Pass
Labor Unionists, Widest Hopes.

Laurence Gronlund delivered d lecture
last night at the Western Central Labor
Union hall on the labor question, in whic1
he fairly astounded some of his hearers by
predicting that IL. or rather when, social
ism shall prevail, no man will have 10
work more than six, possibly not more
than two hours day. He thinks this state
the most favorable in the Union for the
progress of his system.
AT the close of the address Mr.. Gron-
lund invited questions. and there was a
running fire OF question and answer. Some
OF the questions showed an utter unfamili-
arity with the theories of socialism. but
of the more pointed the following are fair
samples
why do you think the field in this
state better than elsewhere"
Because sentiment here is more favor
able TO the organization Of the unem-
ployed. In some portions of California
the situation IS favorable. as In Alameda;

some pulpits ! occupied, ! was requested

The KaIispell Indian Land.

Washington City, Aug. 2I.-The kalis-
pell Indians, over whose lands dispute
has arisen with white settlers. are re-
garded by the Indian bureau officials as
quiet and peaceable. and no serious trou-
BILE with them is anticipated. The dispute
over these lands Is an old one, and is
due 20 the absence OF surveys. The In
dams belong TO the Colville agency in
Washington. and an agreement was made
with them some time ago providing for
their removal TO the Flathead reservation,
further to the north. The agreement has
not yet been ratified by congress but in
the event OF a failure OF ratification the
Indians are TO be settled on allotments on
their present reservation Capt. John w
Rubh, their agent notified the Indian bu-
reau last May that the white settlers were
encroaching on their lands, and was in
structed to 20 where the encroachments
were being made. mark out the boundary
line and warn the white settlers to keep
off the lands. The trouble arises directly
from the fact that the settlers have been
granted land that laps on the reservation,
and the general land office issued orders
a month ago 20 the land office there TO
issue no further patents for lands in the
neighborhood of the reservation.

trays His Evil Designs.

George Ref does not intend to Ianguish

plish his escape. Jaiier Dick Burkmsn
was suspicious of his prisoner from the
first, and has had his eye on him
Judging from several little circum-
stances that Ref was keeping one eye on
the door. Burkman employed a trusty on
whom he could rely as sort of 6ecoy
The trusty volunteered his kindly offices
to Ref. and was soon enjoying the conf
dence of the latter 10 such an extent as TO
he made private letter carrier The first
few notes from Ref did not possess any
special significance, but on Saturday he
divulged plan to the trusty which was
little short of diabolical. The trusty went
into Rieff's cell and began abusing the
jailer saying that he was glad his time
was nearly out. as he was anxious to get
out of Burknan's clutches Thus led on.
Ref told the trusty that he himself did
not intend remaining IN Jail.
I am going to be escorted down the Hill
by Fitzgerald he said. land propo o to
work a little scheme on him. I am going
to get some red pepper and as we are
coming back up the hin intend 10 throw
