Raymond Reyes Reads His Obituary
With Pleasure.

As Raymond Reyes walked out
of J. T. Warehouses; Queen
street store last evening, he was
reading an account of his death
at 8:15 o'clock Tuesday morning,
as told in sad strains by an evening
paper. It is not known what the
proprietors of the paper had against
Mr.. Reyes. In fact, if they hadn't
passed him away suddenly" the
little write-up would make it ap-
pear they were very friendly with
the gentleman. It brings to mind
the story of the reporter who stated
that a man died in the hack and
expired in the police station where
he was carried" Mr.. Reyes died
in the paper but fortunately hasn't
expired yet. The evening paper of
course doesn't see the joke, and the
man who got the scoop wishes he
was under ground or out of sight
somewhere-but he isn't.
Mr.. Reyes is all right and, if his
obituary did not have a bad effect
on him, will be down to business at
the usual time this morning.

House of Representatives.

The Committee on Passed Bills re-
| ported on Acts to regulate currency
| facilitate the construction and main
| tenance of cables in the Pacific; Joint
resolution to appoint commission to
report at the next Legislature on the
registration of male residents in the
| islands; joint resolution to appropri-
ate $1,000 as expenses for the Labor
| Commission in the work of regulating
the acquisition of riehts-of-way over

Bill relating to electric railway an
| nOunced for second reading. Consid-
cred with the majority and minority
reports.
Rep. Robertson did not think the
Hawaiian Tramways Company meant
business. Asking for time Until the
1st of January, 1897, was simply a
bluff on their part to scare out other
companies. Such action was a me-
mace. The present Tramways Com
pany had the best roads and the addi-
tional power of having the privilege
to put in electricity would be a con.
tinual menace to those who meant
business. They should be forced to
do the work in a shorter time or allow
some other company to come in. Ap-
pointing committee to report at the
next regular session did not simplify
matters at all. There would still be
the delay. The end of the centurv
would come before ''getting rid of MIR.
Pain and his mules" After the
adoption of the bill there would be a
petition on the company's part for
two years in which to conplete
the work of putting in electricity.
Proposed to limit the time of chance
to September 1st, 1896. One yearmoTe
was all that the company could reason
ably expect. He moved for adoption
OF the amendment as recommended in
the minority report.
Rep. Rycroft claimed that if tbey
were given the sixteen months, as in
the Dill, they would have ample time
In which to work. He thought Rep.
Robertson had advanced no arguments
at all. He put it as if the company
was too poor and incapable to put in
electricity. Such was not the case.
1t was very rich syndicate. Should
sixteen months be given, there would
have to be some action on the part of
the company before the next session of
the Legislature. He was not in love
with the project, but believed in fair
play. There were probably poor peo-
pie in England who had put their
money into the syndicate. BY inter
posing a umbling block, those peODIe
would be treated unfairly.
Rep. Hanuua thought the bill was
for the House now. There was simDIv
q little difference between the mem
bers OF the committee. The majority
wanted to give four months more than
the minority. In order to save trouble
the bill should pass as it stood. Such
a small difference of time should not
stand in the way.
Rep. Haia was in favor of the

the privilege of removing garbage,

TO be paid for, thus proving a matter

some commercial value. The letter of
inquiry that Mr.. Reynolds is able to
present to the Board would seem to
Indicate that such can be accom-
plished, and we would therefore re-
| commend that no privilege for a spe-
cial section of the city be granted at
present, but that the matter be given
more prominent publicity and that
tenders be invited for removing all
garbage and contents of cesspools
within the city limits, boundaries to
be specified, and the work at all times
to be under the supervision and the

A. +. Cooke, manager of the Ha-
waiian Fertilizing Company, wrote
asking if it was the Intention of
the Board to dispose of the city
refuse by franchise in portions, or
as whole. If so, would such a
franchise be open for bids? He
was prepared to make application
for removing all the garbage
throughout the city.

ment favored turning over to the
contractor or contractors odorless
excavators and appliances con-
nected with the same; also the
garbage carts and horses, taking a
bond as a guarantee that at the
expiration of contract the same
shall be returned in as good condi-
ton as when received.
The matter was laid over till
next meeting.
Member Lansing wanted to know
if the Government intended taking
action against washhouses and poi
factories. He cited that the Sani-
tary Committee was often called
upon to investigate washhouses poi
factories should also be looked
after.
President Smith said if wash
houses or poi shops were conducted
in such manner as to become
nuisance, the owners should be
arrested and prosecuted accord
ing to law.
Agent Reynolds said every poi
shop in town was a nuisance.
Member Lansing brought up the
matter of allowing newspaper re-
porters aboard ships, and thought if |
a permit was issued to each paper
it would be satisfactory to all con-
cerned.
A general discussion followed. |
1t was not intended to show parti-
ality in the matter. All was ex-
pected that the same privileges be |
extended reporters as business
men.
On account of the Australia |
leaving for the Coast next Wednes-
day, no session will be held on
that day, unless something neces-
sarv should arise.

ALEXANDRIA COUNTY AND THE
WASHINGTON BOARD OF TRADE.-At
Yesterdays meeting of the Washington
BOARD of Trade the first matter that
came up was the report of the special
committee on the gambling evils in
Alexandria county. The following Is
from the report, which was presented
by Mr.. F. L. Moore, the chairman.
THE Governor of Virginia was wait
ed on by committee consisting of Mr..
B, II. Warner, Judge I. G. Kimban,
Or. A. P. Pardon and Mr.. John l..
Wight, secretary, to whom he gave the
assurance that he would, on making a
case that could be safely brought into
the courts, Immediately proceed against
the offending parties.
''In the preparation of this case
Messrs. Thompson and Fraley, attor-
news at law, have given us their most
efficient aid, preparing the case with
great ability and care, and on July 2
last presented it to the governor OF
Virginia. In obtaining testimony the
CON, missionsrs have given to your com
mittee every aid in their power, detail
ING such men as we selected from the
police force and supplying the neces-
sary funds for prosecuting the offenders.
''For some months gambling was
suppressed by the new sheriff,
but it is reported to your COM
mittee that the gambling houses
are open again. 1t is hoped that
the governor will take immediate steps
to try the cases mode by our detectives
and put in legal shape by our attor-
neys. ~.
1.-THE total expense involved in this
matter to your committee paid by the
board, in addition to that which was
paid by the commissioners was S42. 49,
The committee feel that they did their
work thoroughly. They furnished TO
the Governor such information as ne
asked for, and in such shape as to have
been perfectly satisfactory to himself
and to the attorney general OF Virginia,
AS they themselves expressed 1T. The
responsibility of no further action hav,
ing been taken in this matter rests not
with the board but with those who
agree to do what more was necessary
after receiving such information as the
committee furnished"
President Warner said that he under
stood that some indictments had been
found and complimented Mr.. F. L.
Moore cu the splendid work he had
done with his fellow committeeman
The committee was then discharged
with thanks.

MONDAY starts one of those phenome-

nal sales tnat nave always packed and
crowded the store of D. Bendheim 81
Sons, that have always made a quick
buyer of everyone who went, and that
have always moved goods with an
excited rush. This time the sale opens
up in their cloak department. They
make no excuse for inaugurating this
sale, and you don't care for that, 30
long as you get good goods cheap
enough, and get satisfaction. Bear In
mind that the unprecedented prices are
reinforced with cloaks that are the
choicest in quality. style and fit, and
each inducement is reinforced with
strict good faith in carrying out every
promise and every price quoted.
