Young Mitchell-It was the rankest

find words strong enough to express my
indignation. Fitz simply gave Sharkey
a left hook in the pit of the stomach that
doubled him up, and then followed IL

him. Bob Is the greatest fighter IN the

Sharkey is nowhere alongside him.

LON AGNEW
DEFEATS MULLER.

At $50 P. NJ. Fred Muller of the San
Francisco Athletic Club and Lon Agnew
of Chicago-light weights at 135 pounds
entered the ring with their respective
attendants for ten-round contest.
The betting was in favor of Agnew.
The referee selected was Frank Allen.
First round-Muller was first to lead with q
left on Agnew' nose. He fought fast and had
all the best of it up to near the finish when
Agnew got in one or two hard punches on
stomach and face. Muller looked bit tired.
Second round-Agnew was boxing very coolly
and apparently waiting for Muller to tire him
self out. Muller kept punching his man with
rights and lefts and Agnew either feigned grog-
giness or was too tired to hit. Mu Ter scored a
strong lead just before the bell sounded

FOR THE UNITED STATES.

American friends of Hawaii can
continue their championship of the
Islands now without any fear of
embarrassment by legislation or
public policy Auctuation at this
end. All proposals arising here OH
the subject of tariff revision to
affect trade relations with the
United States have been sup
pressed, buried, kicked aside,
indefinitely postponed. These
unique ideas, some of them no
doubt we'll meant, originated ION

aim may have been to strike at Or
iental commerce with Hawaii.
The suggestions were generally
called absurd from the start and were
emphatically disowned by the Gov
eminent publicly and officially. In
all legislation bearing upon deal
ings with other countries the first
inquiry is as to how Hawaiian re-
lations with the United States will
be touched. 1t is the constant pur-
pose to "get together" with the
country whose former citizens are
largely the handspring in the con-
duct of Little America in the Pa

TAX LEGISLATION.

The recommendations of tn,
Senate special committee on taxa
ton, together with the favorabl,
action of the chamber thereon, suf
fered overshadowing and belittle
ment because accompanied by
a mass of speaking figures. The
data in tables was startling. Revel.
atoms were made. The exhibits
consumed all attention. Nothing
has been said in discussion of con-
illusions reached by the committee
or proposals for relief advanced.
These comprise the actual report.
These made up the verdict of a
capable group of men at the taxa
ton problem task three weeks. 1t
is surprising that their work has
been given little or no heed.
What is best and perhaps most
important in the Senate reform is
the fact there is no increase of the
demands on the common people. "
The committee reached for the cor
porations and found them agree
able to a readjustment they were
to feel most.
The Senate Act will realize to
the treasury SIoo, 600 a year more
from the thirty-six sugar corpora
tons than is at present received and
$50, 900 more annually from other
corporations. Other private ZEN
terprises" will yield not less than
$4,000 year more than now.
This new found revenue, together
with the license system pending
will assure receipts that put to fight
thoughts of higher levy or of bonds
except for essential, lasting and
profitable public improvements.
The new plan removes necessity
for hurried passage of an income
tax act. There will be no resist
ance of the Senate schemes.
Here is the plan for assessment
of corporations:
provided, however, that in all cases
where real and personal property or
several classes or kinds or parcels of
real or personal property, respectively,
are combined and made the basis of an
enterprise for profit, it shall bT assessed
rs a whole on its fair and reasonable
aggregate value.
In estimating the aggregate value OF
each such enterprise for profit, there
shall be taken into consideration the
net profits and gross receipts made by
the same, and all other facts and con.

bear upon such valuation.

the manufacturers of coal oil
stoves have been experiment
ing to produce a stove that
would in its construction do
away with any possibility OF
explosion. Ahfeld's Chemistry
in speaking of Explosion aud
Structure Of Flame says:
Hydrogen is a prominent con
stituent Of all substances used
for producing artificial light
such as coal-gas. If a
flame be applied to the deliver,
pipe before all the air IS expelled,
the probable result will be igni-
lion of the mixture Of hydrogen
and oxygen (of the air) and a
consequent explosion. Air
made, by a mechanical contri-
vance Of burner, to mix with
the interior of a fame at once

This is the principle of the
NEW PROCESS" BLUE
FLAME STOVE The reser.
voir is away from the flame
and the hydrogen and oxygen
meet in the reservoir and pass
through the pipe. The result
is the non-explosive "blue

end and not within the pipe,
partly because of the metal OF
the burner land pipe) by con
Quoting the heat away, cools the
mixture beloag the temperature at
which 1t can ignite" Thus the
coal oil reaches the wick in the
desired state.
This wonderful stove has a
powerful blue fame absolutely
odorless. Any utensil or flat
iron may be placed directly in
the flame without a particle Of
SCOT being deposited upon it.
By the use OF the simplest de-
wise it is impossible to turn the
wick too high, thus insuring a
perfect fame at all times when
in operation. The use Of coal
oil (kerosene) is so general that
every household is provided
with 1t, hence there is no an
noyance in the matter of pro-

WV. DIMOND,S

The House Committee on
Finance proposes to bring the
Appropriation Bill down to
point where the Treasury
vaults may get a whack at hold
ing a surplus.
There's a method in cutting
expenses just as there is a
method in cutting prices or in
starting right and making the
prices right to begin with.
Our crockery sets have ex-
perienced something in the line
of nipping high prices in the
bud.
You can get lots of cheap
dishes in town, but they are
cheap looking. No where in
Honolulu is there such an
array of high class crockery at
low prices as can be found
here. A handsomely decorat-
ed breakfast, dinner and tea
set at $l5 is less than you can
buy the same goods for in San
Francisco; half what you can
get it for anywhere in Homo
lulu.
Here's another-a proper
leader. A fine plain, white
set, breakfast, dinner and tea
set for $3.50.

piece tea set, special, at 1915.
