Evening bulletin. [volume] (Honolulu [Oahu, Hawaii]) 1895-1912, 1895-11-02

This is the time of the year
when the evenings gradually
increase in length, especially
on Saturdays and Sundays.
Why the evenings should be
longer on those two days than
on any other is something no
fellow has ever found out, but
it is 50. Such being the case
the question of lighting up the
household during the long
evenings that are coming is
one that cannot be ignored by
the head of any household.
The question of economy
must also be considered. Coal
oil is advancing in price, and
we read by the late dispatches
that the Pennsylvania oil fields
won't last much more than
twenty years to come; also that
the great Standard Oil Com
pany is already looking around
for new oil fields to supply the
threatened deficit. Kerosene
oil will always be obtainable
at the figure Mr.. Rockefeller
puts on it, but as a matter of
future economy the Honolulu
householder should purchase
his lamps with a view to pro-
curing the greatest possible
amount of light with the small
est consumption of oil. This
can only be done by buying
good lamps and good burners
and good chimneys. The Ha-
Waiian Hardware Company
has them all.
BY the last Australia we re-
Ceived and are now unpacking
the finest assortment of lamps
ever brought to this city, COM
prising as it does an extensive
variety of bedroom, kitchen,
boudoir, hall, dining and draw
ing room and reading lamps.
These we have in glass and
metal. Our assortment of
hanging lamps and chandeliers
of all kinds is simply immense
and must be seen to be appre-
ciated. In piano lamps we have
something especially new.
To cover all these lamps we
have some beautiful shades of
the latest designs in paper and
glass. When we say they are
beautiful we mean it in the
fullest sense of the word, as
you will acknowledge when
you see them.
We have also a display OF
prettylittle Onyx tables, which
are all the rage among fashion,
able people.
Our supply of Alaska refrig-
orators has been repleniShed
and we are now prepared to
furnish them in sizes to suit
any household.

HIGH SCHOOL DEDICATED.
Continued from Isl page.)

I = -
President Dole made a happy
speech, emphasizing the value of
adverse rcumstances in making
character. 1t was the poor boys.
who had to hustle for IN educa-
ton, who usually made the r
marks in the world. The luxury
of wealth WAS an impeachment to
adv ncement in knowledge. Some
girls ad their heads full Of par
ties, beans and novels. Children
while attending school had no
right to read novels. The Pres-
dent congratulated the up0ls, their
prrents and teachers, and the
Board of Education upon the pro-
grrss of education III Honolulu.
Ii W tn the splendid accommoda-
tons for high school instruction
the youth did not succeed they
COLD not blame the Boards Of
Education or their teachers.
Mrs. b. T. Dillingham;, one Of
the lady members of the Board of
Education, gave highly interest
ing address on the Hill of
Knowledge"
Inspector General Alatau T.
Atkinson give short but meaty
speech. he referred to the estab-
lishment of Il high school in Ho-
noIuiu as marking another mile
stone in the educational progress
IF Hawaii. Teaching in the Ha-
waiion language was now all but
abolished. In his 26 years resi-
dcnce he had seen marked adj
vance in education Throughout the
group. a uniformity OF system
had been adopted. The personnel
Of the teaching force had been
much improved. Twenty years
ago there were but 1855 children
in school; II year ago there were
II 3O7, and at the present moment
he calculated we had over 1000.
Mr.. Atkinson made a strong plea
for having high school tuition
made free like the common
schools.
Principal Scott, in the course
of clos ng remarks, invited the
visitors to inspect the building
from basement to cupola. They
could go to the bottom and see
what a fine place was there for the
girls to play. And they could so
to the top, where Purnassus WIS
supposed to b., although he had
never been there. They would
find the grounds in as good con-
dltion as when the Board took
possession. Perhaps their con-
dition had even been improved. In
a year from now he had no doubt
they would find the grounds in
As good condition as they are
today.
The school then sang a dedca-
try hymn composed by Phillip
IL. Dodge, to music by Mrs. Tuck
er, who played accompaniment on
the piano.
This closed the exercises and
then the people swarmed upstairs
and downstairs, making a regular
crush in the narrow ways Of the
higher regions. There is mag
niicent view from the platform
surrounding the cupola, for which
expressions of the keenest admira-
ton were heard. The building
was fully described in this paper
II few weeks ago. 1t is
palatial in construction. In
the main rooms the ceilings are
ornamented with low reliefs Of
the national coat-of-arms done in
gold and colors.
There are now 60 pupils in the
high school, and 100 in the gram
mar grade. In the primary de-
partments, housed at the old Fort
street establish ment, there is an
attendance Of 10 pupils.

GENERAL HARRISON TO WE'D.

gngcment Expected.

New York Tribune. lfth)
The pcrsistency with which the rumors
concerning the engagement OF ex-Presi-

silence maintained by both him ana Mrs.

he IS to marry, have led many 10 Deheso

When General Harrison was SHOWN VIC

he untrue Last summer General haiii
son spent a great part OF tns su,in,ei
at Valley Forge, In the Auironuarns.
With him were Mrs Mckee. the Mcne.
children. and Mrs. Dimmock. Al tnal
time General HarrIsons devotion to Mrs.
DImmock was noticed and commented
upon. He is reported to have waxed
enthusiastic more than once I'm speaking
of her. and one of the reasons no a.
yanced for his admiration was tnat sne
was a woman OF rare good sense, and
did not talk when he wanted 10 think.
This led to further ruinors about an en-
gagement Again General Harrison de-
MED the reports. and said that he hoped
that they would not be repeated. Upon
this occasion, when the report has spread
SO far that it has generally come to be
looked upon as true. General Harrison
will say nothing. and Mrs. Dimmock is
equally silent. This tends TO confirm the
belief that ii there was nothing in the
report General Harrison would quickly
deny II, as he has done before.
Russell Harrison, son of ex-President
Harrison, with his wife. is at the I'm
perlal Hotel. When seen yesterday by a
reporter and asked about the report, he
replied, quietly: Il know nothing about
1t. / am not In a position to deny or
affirm. | can tell you nothing"
II was limited yesterday that General
Harrison would spend the holidays In
New York with his son and Mrs. DIM
mock, and that while he was here the
official announcement OF the engagement.
would be made When Russell Harrison
was asked about this he said that he was
not aware of his fathers intentions, but
that the ex-President might come to New
York for the holidays.
Mrs. Dmmock spends the time quietly
at her home, No. " east Thirty-eighth
street, and refuses to see newspaper-men
In the course of General Harrison's pre-
vious visit TO the city she went out With
him great DEAL and he was at ner homo
often. Since that time the friendship
has been kept up by a regular CORE
spondence.
Mrs. Dimmock, before her marriage, was
Miss Lord. She has one sister, who
Is married 10 Lieutenant Parker. who
was General Harrison's Naval Secretary
The two sisters were well known in
Washington in President Harrison's Ad-
ministration. They were the daughters
Of a sister Of Mrs. Harrison, and Mrs.
Dimmock was named after Mrs. Harri-
son. Her name before her marriage was
Mary Scott Lord, but she was generally

MIR. james II. Pace.

The assignment Of Mr.. James b. Pace.
which became known yesterday AFTERNOON
was distressing news to our community.
II came upon the public like a bolt from
a clear sky. His credit seemed unlimited.
Indeed. he was one among the last men
in this city our people would have ex-
pected an assignment from.
Nor do we yet believe that he Is In
solvent. Those who have charge OF his
affairs are men conspicuous for prudence
and sagacity, and they say that his assets
would pay his debts twice. His assign
ment is attributed by them TO the PAIN
full illness to which he has been SUD-
iected for many weeks, and which has
made business affairs vexatlon and
worry TO him. Had he been well man.
vigorous and "nervy," as or OLD. we
doubt not that he would have continued
to manage his business with the success
that has marked nearly all OF his life
here In Richmond.
The Dispatch has assurances that the
banking concerns In which Mr.. Pace held
official positions are as solvent and strong
as they ever were, and there need'
therefore. be no alarm in that direction.
MFR. Pace has been a valuable citizen
of Richmond. His hand has ever been
open to charity. He has been helpful
to many. and has been prominent In
numerous public enterprises that nave
proved of signal benefit to our city. we
feel sure that we voice the general wish
tbst no may soon be able TO take personal
charge Of all of his great financial in
tereets

Moral Reform.

A two-days conference Of persona VINO

reforms in the National Government was
held in Baltimore this week. The at
tendance WAS not large. The Sun says:

the addition OF an amendment TO the Con-
stitution acknowledging In clear and ex-
plicit terms the power OF God. ana set

The Federal Constitution was ratified
in Virginia by convention which re-

A Strong Argument.
(Rapnahannock Times.O

Governor O'Ferrall in his message to
the Legislature advances the strongest
arguments yet produced in favor OF the
Walton election law. He points out that
by a multiplication Of constables. the Sc
crecy OF the ballot Is at once destroyed,
because the voter requiring the assist
ance of a constable would indicate at
once, by the constable he called. what
ticket he would vote. The fact that
Populsts and Republicans have made
gains under the law is proof positive that
the grounds assigned by them for their
objections are fictitious, and that the
real ground Of objection is, as the Times
pointed out heretofore. the cutting of
OF the pap of the leaders.

VIII Bayard Reslgnf

The New York Herald demands that MI
Bayard shall resign or be removed because
he has made fool of himself" This
is strong language: too strong, though we
think that Mr.. Bayard's Edinburgh ad-
dress. strong, practical, and patriotic as
II was in most respects, would have been
better with the assault on the doctrine
of protection omitted. 1t was not a
diplomatic thing for him 10 do to discuss
that question before British audience.
OF course as an American citizen, Mr.
Rayard is entitled to liberty OF speech
and all that; but the question is has he
used this liberty wisely-has he helped or
hurt his party and himself by availing
himself Of 1t as he has done. We can't
believe that Mr.. Bayard is very well salts
fled with himself in this matter. We
dare say that If he had his time TO go
over again he would get some prudent
friend to read over his >iS. and point out
the places where a vigorous use CT the
blue pencil would be advantageous.
Mr.. Rayard has always enjoyed the
reputation of being great mana great
diplomat, especially-and 1t must be
humilating to him TO know that while he
has reused up a perfect hornets nest in
the Republican party, many good. cbie
Democrats, true friends of his. cannot
defend his address with as much hearth
ness as they have hitherto defended his
amba ssadorial acts. Still they will hardly

resolutions that may be reported from the

wisdom and discretion OF the President.

this wish's being gratified. The first
edition OF the work, having been exhaust

IL he shall meet with sufficient encourage
ment. to publish second edition. with
more old documents and more traditions

can hardly be question that Mr.. Boul-
din will meet with every encouragement
to carry out his purpose.

Christmas shopping.

The progressive spirit OF the kich-
mond retail merchants was never more
s,rikinely illustrated than in their dis
nlavs of holiday goods this Christmas
tide. and the liberal manner in whicn
they are advertising these goods through
the columns Of the Dispatch. our mer-
chants are always In the forefront III the
matter of meeting every demand OF the
public. and it is safe to assert that they
can successfully compete at all seasons
with the merchants of any other city
In the Union in the richness, variety ana
freshness of their stocks, as well as III
nrioes Indeed the handsome retail stores
of Richmond and the splendid lines OF
u,ares they carry are the subjects OF
unqualified favorable comment from all
visitors to Virginia's capital. no matter
from what section of the country they
NAV come. 1t Is universally conceded py
the travelled" public that Richmond Is
up to date in this department OF traue'
as she is in most other things.
This holiday, however. our merchants
seem 10 have made extra exertions 10

beautiful bazaars, each in its line or Ines
doing its best to eclipse all Of its previous
efforts in the direction of presenting a
multitude Of articles to choose from. The

Governor OFerralrs message to the
General Assembly. which we print In part
to-day. will be found to be an interesting
and exhaustive review of his official
acts during the past two years. 1t also

practical character in regard to needed

message the Governor has displayed the
same industry and anxiety TO serve his
people which characterized him as a

Tho recommendation likely to arouse
most discussion are those In regard to
a constitutional convention. the amend
