AN EFFECTIVE LECTURER.

Fraulein Payer, Swiss, who has
recently obtained her degree of Doc
tor of Medicine, is lecturing her fell
acknowledgement on the unsanitary
enormities of modern female fashion.
Recently, when the Soci. ty of Swiss
Schoolmistresses was holding its year
ly session in Aarau, DR.. Payer was in
vited to address them. She took for
her subject "The Sins of the Toilet"
and delivered a militant grafton
against the wearing of corsets,
against gloves, and against long
skirts. Her reasoning was so effective
that at the end of her lecture no few
er than 100 women came forward and
subscribed their names to a pledge to
renounce the corset, to wear gloves
only upon ceremonial occasions"
and to have their dresses made foot
short of the ground.

What do the maligners of Hawaii's
credit have to say to the announce
ment of a reduction in the Govern
ment Postal Savings Bank rate of in
terest? The Republic has funds and
to spare and The Star confidently pre-
diets that at no very distant day there
will materialize the nest egg for a re-
serve such as was being built up so
handsomely before the uprising and
the cholera seasons of extraordinary
expense. The Government premium
on thrift or bonus for saving is not
removed. as critics might claim. From
that standpoint it would be well to
maintain the rate at the highest limit,
but interest has been lowered gener-
ally and no Withdrawal from the pos
tai savings is anticipated on this
score.

They are becoming alarmed about
tubercular contagion in California.
The great source of danger is the pub
lie eXpectoration habit. New York,
Detroit and st. Louis have rigid ord
finances calculated to reach offenders
and work reform. Legislation will
likely be put through by the San Fran
cisco municipal authorities when the
boodling scandals and presidential
elections are out of the way. One eX-
pert is so certain of the peril that he
says all the famous health resorts of
Southern California are likely to be-
come known as the most unhealthy
places in the world unless proper san
itary measures to check contagion are
soon adopted. Invalids are always
welcome to Hawaii and never fail to
find relief here. They should be fully
alive to their own duty in the question
of regard for the health of others and
there will be very little local danger
unless they create it.

Most everyone breads 10
think of the time when the
rainy season will commence, as
it always means additional
homework. This is particu
larly the case when those
whose homes are not in easy
access Of the Tram Car lines,
which require a walk OF a block
or more in the mud.
1t is more than probable
that if the wishes OF the ma
jority of housewives we're ex,
pressed they would declare
war against wet weather; but
it is one of the many needful
things that we have to put up
with, and, consequently, should
make the best of a bad bar
gain and prepare accordingly.
Our indestructable Coiled
Steel wire Mats (4x7) are just
the thing for muddy boots as
they take off every vestige Of
dirt and do not fill up or cake,
as is the case with rope or
grass mats.
Everyone is interested in
the rainfall of a twelve or a
twenty-four-hour shower, and
our Rain Guages can be relied
upon as being accurate.
We have a large assortment
of Hendrix Brass Bird Cages
that are meeting with a ready
sale and the prices for the three
sizes range from $3.50 to 81 SO.
We have a nice line of Painted

To reforest Nuuanu valley is a grand
plan indeed and the campaign outlined
by Commissioner Marsden cannot but
be a success. Trees constitute large
part of the wealth of country and
it is a happy condition here that when
they disappear nature responds read
lily to the appeal for restoration. The
plan which has now crystallyzed was
discussed several times in the Advis-
DRY Council during the days of the
Provisional Government. After that
it seemed to be forgotten by ell except
the excellent official who looks after
forestry and all sorts of culture.

There are many lessons for Hawaii
in the new book Immigration Falla-
cies." Treatment of the subject to
which so much thought has been Civ
en- is, of course, from a strictly Amer
can standpoint. Conditions in Ha-
wall are different but the general
principles are applicable. The writer
declares that foreigners should not be
naturalized or permitted to vote until
they have resided in the country ten
years. 1t is hoped thus to put a stop
to the manipulation of the machine
vote of aliens and the running of So
called alien voting mills" by profess
sional politicians and ward bosses for
party purposes. The author deals
with the whole question in a very
thorough manner, taking into account
not only its political aspect, but also
it's economic and social aspects; and
he justly contends that, though the
economic value of immigration is very
great yet the true wealth of a nation
is measured not by acreage or money,
but by the character of its people. He
also deals with the history of the ques-
tion, and shows that the views ex-
pressed by Washington, Jefferson and
other revolutionary fathers were ut

Ripans
TabuleS

Mr.. L. A. Rocher is a farmer re-
siding about three miles out of
Colon, N. C. His home is some
what in the back woods. In an
interview with Mr.. S. 7. Godfrey,
correspondent of the Telegram
and Sunday Times, Mr.. Rocher
on the 18th of June, 1895, said:
81 am 81 years of age, and until
I was nigh onto fifty years old,
I was always well and peart,
then for long while and until
last February, 1 suffered with
indigestion and could not eat
anything hardly at all. My
daughter, who lives in the city,
sent me some of Ripans Tabules,
told me how to take them, and
and they have completely cured
me. My wife is now troubled
with the same complaint, and
has written daughter to send
some more of Mr.. Ripan's med
icine. I want you to tell every
body how I got cured, for it is
blessing to humanity.

that the Pabst beer exceeded by 40
per cent the amount of beer sold by

NANCY & co. A SUCCESS
ANOTHER RIG AUDIENCE ENJOYS
THE DELIGHTFUL COMEDY.
VIZ. Frawiey Makes Little speech
ancc ON Tuesday Evening.

There was another crowded
house on Saturday evening to wit
ness the performance of Nancy &
Co. at the Opera House and the
members of the company gained
added renown in its production.
The comedy is sparkling and live
ly from beginning to end, crowd
ed with comical situations and
replete with irresistibly funny
sayings and doings, which keep
the audience in a roar of laughter
the whole of the evening.
The leading part is of course
taken by Harry Corson Clarke,
and as an Anticipated old been and
collector of photographs of beau
tiful women whom he adores from
time to time he was very amusing.
He was ably seconded by the
other members Of the company in
the cast, including Mr.. George W.
Leslie whose name was inadver
tently left off the program. Pro,
badly no production of the com
pany has better satisfied the
audience as whole than the
comedy produced on Saturday
evening.
After the second act Mr.. Fraw.
ley appeared before the footlights
and stated that it had
been the intention to close
the season OH Saturday
evening for many reasons, princi,
pal of which was that they did not
desire to wear out the cordial
welcome they had hitherto receiv-
ed and therefore wanted to close
the season leaving the Honolulu
public anxious to see more of
them. However, there had been
such general desire expressed to
see the company in "The Gilt"
that they felt compelled to accede
to it and would therefore produce
that comedy on Tuesday evening.
Mr.. Frawley's remarks were greet,
ed with applause.

Several Persons Injured by Flying Bullets

BOodlors Robukcd.
CHICAGO, April Sin the election
here Tuesday for town officers and
aldermen, the republicans carried all
of the seven towns by majorities rang
ing from 1000 to 1000. The campaign
for aldermen was not strictly on party
lines, being more of an effort on the
part of reputable citizens to GUST the
old gang which has controlled the
council regardless of politics. OF the
"a aldermen elected, only eight are
men who were opposed by the Munici-
pal Voters league. The remaining 26
may be said to fairly represent the re-
spectacle element. OF the old council,
the following were re-elected: John
Coughlin, Charles Martin, John Pow
ers, Daniel Alderman, Robert Mulcahy
and Cyrus Howell These six will have
company in the council chamber, as
out of the "a present aldermen whose
terms do not expire until next year
there are number of we'll known
boodlers.
The election yesterday will severely
cripple the boodlers and yet still leave
them with majority of two or three
in the council. The peoples party did
not succeed in electing single candi-
date. OF the successful contestants f3
are democrats, Is republicans and
three ran on an independent ticket
The most bitter contest was in the
First ward between bath House
John" Coughlin and George H. Will
liams. Coughlin will have a majority
of over 1,2U0.
Blood was shed in the First ward
and the police were called on to quell
several incipient riots at the polling
places among the followers of the
rival aldermanic candidates. The
levee section of the ward provided its
usual quota of lesser brawls, with fists,
rocks and clubs as weapons and whisky
as the accessory in every case. There
were disturbances among the Italian:
of the Nineteenth ward, where the
aldermanic contestants strove with
, beer, whisky and money to influence
the voting.

of the people are negroes of nearly pure
African blood, and the interchangeable !
policy of the people is the refusal OF
land titles to whites. The religion is
Catholic, though owing to the presi-
dents wise counsel Protestant mission
aries are tolerated. One of his main
troubles was the existence of voodoo
worship, but he succeeded in confining
it to the very lowest classes, where 1T
still exists.
Hippolyte gave every encouragement
to educational matters, and lived to see
400 national schools established. The
grade has constantly improved for the
last ten years and smaller number OF
rich young men than usual now COM
plete their education in the United
States or in France.
One of the wisest measures to be cred
tied to Hippolyte is fixing the right OF
suffrage at visible occupation. No man
who does not work is permitted to vote.
And a pursuance of the same system
cannot but result in bettering the
whole field of government.
The national debt in 1892 amounted
to about $9,0O0,000, of which half was
held abroad. In 1895 the debt had been
reduced, and the proportion held at
home was much greater. In 1892 there
was 100000 export and $14,o00,000
import. But in the course of his admin
istration Hippolyte succeeded in adj
justing the balance of trade more adj
vantageously for his country. He gave
every possible encouragement to the
cultivation of coffee, cocoa and cotton,
and did much to establish financial
stability that had previously been un-
known. The IIaytian dollar was, at the
time of his Inauguration, worth rs
cents in United States money. To-day
it is nearly fixed at 95 cents.
No man in the history of the island
had so combined the qualities which
made the nation self-supporting, which
made assistance of white men unneces'
sary and which preserved peace with
the tempestuous kingdom at the farther
end of the island. Hippolyte was easily
: the foremost man in his country
though the very excellence of his worl
is proved in the fact that other men may
to-day conduct its affairs who ten years
ago would have been overwhelmed b,
revolution within n month after in
auguration.
