Sole Deposit Boxes

WE HAVE A FEW MORE BOXES

not yet rented. There are four sizes,
varying in price from s12 to $50 per
year. Any private papers left in
these boxes are perfectly safe, as the
vaults are flre-proof and are fitted with
time locks, which makes them abso-
lutely burglar-proof. There are two
keys to each box, both of which are
given to the party renting box, and
should these keys be stolen they
would be useless to bearer. as he could
not open the box without our master

venient place to leave any valuables

Crazy South Sea Islander.

A South Sea Islander was arrested
early last evening by Lieutenant Ed
wards of the Mounted Patrol. A mes
sage from Wyllie street was to the eff
feet that the man had been around in
the neighborhood for several nights,
acting very strangely. When arrested
he had on an old uniform coat, used
in the time of Kalakaua. His name
could not be obtained, so incoherent
were his statements.

the coffee is coming on, but after the
coffee is in his buggy you hear more
about those two boys than you do
about the coffee. Lucky Mr.. S. Those
