To Repair Brig Lurline.

Capt. Brown of the brig Lurline has
received notice from the underwriters
in San Francisco that all repairs neces-
sary to the vessel in consequence of
her recent disaster in Kahului, are to
be made here in Honolulu.
Acting upon this Capt. Brown has
secured a new crew of sailors, left here
looking for a first class chief officer.
1t will be remembered that the old
crew was discharged and left for San
Francisco on the Mariposa.
AS soon as possible the Lurline will
be put on the marine railway, and Capt.
Brown expects to have her ready for
sea in about three weeks.

POLICE COURT NOTES.
Three Cases of Larceny Against
Kale NolIe PrOSs'd.

In the police court yesterday morn
ing All Hee, the Chinaman arrested
Tuesday for the needless and furious
driving of a dray along King street,
plead guilty and was fined So and costs.
Young Cha plead guilty to unlawful
possession of che ia tickets and was
fined $25 and costs.
The case of S. P. Wood for using
threatening language was nOlle proSs'd
Kale, the native boy charged with
the larceny of a hack, horse and har-
ness last Saturday night, had three
separate charges entered against nim.
1t had come to the knowledge of po-
lice authorities that Kale was not re-
sponsible for taking the hack, horse
and harness.
1t seems that a certain Japanese with
grudge against the propr1etors of the
stables near Smiths bridge, was the
| one who went in and, hitching up the
horse, as already detailed in previous
issue of the Advertiser, ordered the ma
| tive to drive away.
Kale thought that everything was
all right and drove away.
In consequence of this later informa
ton the three cases of larceny entered
against Kale were nolle prOss'd.

The holiday season has
been one of exceptional and
unexpected prosperity to us.
For weeks past we have
been calling attention to
fancy goods as well as those
of an ornamental character.
We might have advertised
strictly useful articles, but
people as a rule, draw the
line at cumbersome presents
placed in the hosiery hung
besides the hearth. A Jewell
stove, for instance, would be
injurious to the average Ho-
nOIulu stocking, but it would
have been most acceptable
in the homes of a great many
people here.
We have just received a
very large invoice of these
stoves in all sizes, from the
smallest to the largest made
at the factory. Our prices
for these stoves are so rea-
Sonable that one of them
should be in every home in
Honolulu.
Our method of selling to
island customers is an inno-
walton to the people of the
islands; the price of the
stove in our store is the
same at any shipping port in
the islands = we pay the
freight from Honolulu.

closet unprotected. it is slipped into the
bag. This keeps it free from dust and
wrinkles. A good idea is to sew inside
the skirt bag sacbet of orris root and
violet. so that the dress skirt may have
the suggestion of delicate perfume about
it.
