spent their superhuous cash in

warning note to eventual settlers to

stated that Honolulu should be the
best and most widely known city in

Mr.. Rowell, the Superintendent of
Public Works believes in economy,
He does not send the carts used by
him to the carriage shops in town

forgets that the carriage builders in
Honolulu have to pay taxes, rents
and wages for workingmen,

No sane man can imagine the day
when Honolulu will become better
and more widely known than Lon

other great centers Of the world.
The impression conveyed by the
Journal is to say the very least as
misleading as the statement in itself
is absurd.

: Coal Pilferers Nabbed.

Detective Tide Huston, Of the
Hooking Valley, who is ever on
the alert in protecting the property
of the railroad and its patrons
made a clever capture and a good
haul Tuesday night. Between IL
and ~ o'clock that nighthe noticed
couple of fellows skulking around
among the cars and being satisfied
they were there for no good he
slipped up upon them just as they
were leaving the yards. The fel-
lows caught sight of Tide and start
ed to run with the detective close
on their heels catching up with
them in the commons in Riverdale,
but being single handed he only
managed to land one Of his men,
"Flick" Corson, who had sack Of
coal on his shoulder, the other. who
had large chunk in his arms,
dropped his load and made break
for liberty, not however before he
was recognized. After taking Cor
son to the city prison Tide went to
the home of the other, Martin,
placed him under arrest, took him
down to keep company with his
partner in the wholesale coal busi-
ness. Wednesday they were
brought up 70: trial and pleading
not guilty were bound over to court
In the sum Of 800. II is hoped this
will have tendancy towards
breaking up the petty pilfering of
coal of the Hooking Valley yards
of Logan at least.
Wednesday morning at s o'clock
Detective Huston came near get
ting another purloiner of black
diamonds. AT this hour he saw
sack of coal with a man under it
moving along over the commons in
the vicinity of the yards and going
after his man discovered that it
was Anderson Waller of Riverdale
who made q pathetic plea for mercy,
saying that he had picked the coal
from the ground going back with
Tide to show him where he had got
it. Tide, who had not seen him
take the coal, gave him the benefit
Of the doubt and let him go with a
warning that, no doubt, will prove
beneficial in its effect.

He Is Not in Favor OF Placing Duty on
Silver Bullion.
Washington, Dec. Ex-senator Tel
Ter was asked for his opinion Of the
proposition which it has been stated
would be incorporated in the new tar.
If bill for duty on silver and replied;
ut is very foolish idea. If they
think they can catch the silver men
by any such sop as that they are mis-
taken. They would only emphasize
the claim of the gold men that silver
is mere commodity. If duty of so
cents an ounce was placed or silver II
would not raise the price of silver q
cent. The price of silver is fixed
aroad, where it is used.
"The only silver that is imported
into this country is from Mexico, upon
which people in this country make a
profit in handling. That is all right
and there can be no objection to it.
The silver thus imported is shipped
out again. The price of silver is fixed
by the countries which use it for
money and in the arts. We don't use
more than 100000 ounces in the
arts"

Some Peoples Folly.

Why some persons will suffer with
the excruciating pangs of rheumatism,
when they can be so easily cured by
that greatest Of pain-cues, Salvation
Oil, is past human comprehension.
That Salvation Oil does cure rheuma-
tism is evidenced by Mr.. G. +. Schra-
der, Pierce, Ncb., who says: 81 have
used Salvation Oil and think there is
no liniment ON earth like it. / had the
rheumatism for several months and
could get no relief until | used Sal
walton Oil, two bottles ofwhich effected
a cure, and L feel as we'll as ever. No
home should be without it," Salvation
Oil is sold everywhere for 25 cents.
When dealers offer a substitute be-
ware, you'll be victimized. Insist on
having the best, Salvation Oil.

TO ENTER NATIONAL POLITICS

The American Protective Association Will
Exert Its Influence In the Presidential
Campaign.
WASHINGTON, March 23.-The Ameri-
can Protective associa ton has an
nounced it's intention to enter upon
the field of national politics in the COM
ing presidential campaign It's first
move toward this will be taken by the
supreme advisory board OF the organ
ization called to meet here tomorrow.
This meeting is preliminary to the ses-
sions of the supreme council which
will be held here in May. The su-
preme council will determine the part
which the organization will take in
the campaign. It is a part of the pro-
gramme to insist on the re-enactment
in party platforms this year of the
planks of the repu blican and demo-
cratic platforms of 1876 in which both
parties declared against sectarian ap-
preparations and emoluments from
public moneys or property. Another
feature of the programme with which
the advisory board will deal is what
the political leaders of the A. P. A.
call campaign of education. They
declare that their literature shall reach
every post Office in the country and
every voter before election day.

paint the spire. They began working
from the bottom to the top. using cir

Ford were giving the finishing touches
to the top of the spire thunderstorm

Of lightning. The two painters were
seen making efforts to lower
their scaffold when a terrific clap
of thunder and binding flash
of lightning left the clouds and
struck the spire, knocking away the
scaffolding, splitting the spire and
leaving Somers and Ford pinned to the

remains Of the painters were brought
