A QUESTION:.

Wouldn't you consider a
man capable of doing the most
intricate work, capable of doing
the simple work also?
Would you consider man
capable only of doing the sim
pie work, quite as capable for
that work, as the more sklllful
one?
We have been getting ALL
your intricate and difficult
work during the years past,
now let us have ALL your
work which requires less skill;
then note after 1t leaves our
hands how much better it
looks-see if it does not give
you better satisfaction.
Your watch is one Of your
best friends;lt merits the treat
ment you accord your friends.
We give it such treatment.
Tt is our business. Ten years
of satisfactory work have
given US the reputation for the
best; and yet we are doing
better work to day than ever.
We are working just as hard
to keep that reputation as we
ever did to gain it. We are
not content to rest easy, and
let the reputation do all the
work; the quality will never be
lessened.
Do you know that your old
key winder can be converted to
a stem winder, and that it can
be done so it will wind as
smooth as melted butter? We
have converted a number of
them and can convert yours.

ABOUT ENCORES.

Theodore Thomas, the famous
orchestra leader, lately gave an
audience in Chicago lesson that
is needed in other places. At a
concert he was conducting there
was loud and long encore, but
the master calmly waited till the
clamor subsidized and then started
the next number on the program.
Encores are a bore to probably a
majority of just and sensible peo-
pie, who are satisfied if an enter
tainment is in matter and manner
all that is advertised. They are
often, also, mere exhibitions of
favoritism, unfair to performers
who may not have enough noisy
friends in the audience to bestow
upon them the compliment. Es-
pecially in long programs of
amateur concerts, containing
often much that is tedious, are
encores a severe infiction upon
auditors. Moreover, they fire.
quently prolong the performance
until an hour beyond which some
of the audience desire to stay, in
consequence of which these are
sometimes compelled to leave be-
fore the concluding numbers,
which may be the best in the bill,
have been given. Honolulu au-
diences are much given to en-
cores, often discriminating as to
occasions. It's people of judg-
ment and good taste ought to APP
ply themselves to making the
practice questionable. The
managers of entertainments
would greatly speed the reform
by announcing in advance that
there would be no repetitions.

ON ADVERTISING.

The power of advertising can
not be better illustrated than by
the case of one of the writer's in
London Fame, who when he an
nounced the arrival of a son and
heir in the birth columns of one
of the dailies the other day had no
notion that he possessed as many
friends as he certainly does. Con-
CALCULATIONS poured in from va
rious we'll known commercial
houses, and these were accom-
panied in many instances by sub
stantial presents. There were
about dozen different kinds of
soap, nine samples of various in
FAINT foods, three bottles of beef
extracts, powder puff and seven
boxes of violet powder, four or
five different kinds Of night lights,
eight babies bottles, three elabo-
rate works on how to bring up
young children, specimens of
linen and flannel for infant attire
and advertisements innumerable
of everything that baby could
possible need. Besides these there
came proposals from dozen in
surance companies to insure the
life of the baby and the whole
family on especially advantageous
terms, prospectuses from Cali
fornia emigration society anxious
to ship the baby and the rest OF
the family to the land of peaches
and pumpkins at the lowest pos,
sible rates, leaflets from private
gentlemen who wanted to lend
any sum of money from e5 tc
100000, on no security whatever
together with advice, sympathy
and good wishes enough to last q
family hundred years.

THE NEWS FROM HILO.

A remarkable mishap occurred
to one of the Kinau's boats at
Onomea on Saturday. 1t became

the rocks. The crew jumped over
board and reached the landing in
safety. There is cave in the

ser Beckley, who was watching
the loading operations from the
top Of the cliff, saw the boat dis
appear and descended to the
rocks below to investigate.
Now came the strangest
part Of the episode. A native who
had shipped a box of bamboo
strips, Of considerable value, for
Mrs. Ailau at the Golden Rule
Bazaar, was distressed at the ap-
parent loss of the package with
the boat. He went to hole in
the ground hundred feet from
the entrance of the cave, and
looking down saw his box in the
boat. With some assistance he
lowered himself through the hole
into the cave and had his box
hoisted out through the natural
shaft. Mr.. Beckley sent sailors
down the same way, and they pro-

A FEW WORDS ON BlCY-
Giles AND CUTLERY.


voted to the bicycle business
we read that dealers in bicy-
cleS are authority for the state
ment that the business aspect
of the bicycle trade has mate
rally changed during the past
year. Instead of the main
business consisting in dealing
with mems wheels, quite the
contrary is true. Dealers are
now doing their utmost to
attract the eyes of the women.
All of which shows that the
ladies are taking very kindly
to bicycle riding all over the
world. And it is the same
here, the demand for ladies'
wheels is continually increas-
ing. We have received five
of the TRIBUNE LADIES'
WHEELS on this steamer and
have more on the way. These
wheels are of this years make,
direct from the factory, no back
numbers, and have all the latest
Improvements.
We have also a number of
Tribune racers and gents road
sterS, and a number of "Zim-
my" wheels. This is an en-
tirely new machine, named
after the great rider, thinner
mann, and we shall be pleased
to explain its merits to in
tending purchasers.
But we started in to say a
few words on CUTLERY, of
which we received an i'm
menSe assortment on the Aus
tralia, which is now unpacked
and on exhibition. In table
cutlery we have an immense
variety in new and elegant
patterns and all sizes. In pock-
ct cutlery we have a number
of new designs. Knives to
cut lead pencils and knives to
trim your finger nails with, and
knives to cut down your ex-
penses with. We have prun-
ing knives which are just the
thing for the members of the
Legislature to use in cutting
down the appropriation bills,
and some suitable for the Ad-
vertiSer man to do his Cheese
pairing with. In fact we
have all kinds of knives, large
and small, light or heavy, but
all of them of the best quality
and manufacture.
We have carving knives
with ivory, buckhorn or bone
handles, butcher knives, skin
ming knives, knives with cork
screws in them for camping
out or staying at home. In
fact we have all sorts of knives
suitable for all sorts and con-
ditionS of people.

PRAYED BEFORE FIGHTING.
Famous Generals Invoked the Divine
Blessing Upon Their Efforts.
From the Narrr Ynrlr Herald

Famous Generals Invoked the Divine
Blessing Upon Their Efforts.
From the New York Herald.
The menace of war, just now so vio-
lent, brings to mind the devotional side
of some historical belligerents. The
pagans were wont always to make sac
rifices to their gods before entering on
the battle, and Christians have imita-
ted them in appealing to the Divine
support. One of the earliest records in
history of a prayer before battle is that
of Childeric, King of Gaul, a pagan.
who before going into battle at Zuel-
pich, some 400 years after Christ,
prayed to the God of the Christians to
help him to victory. His foe was At
tia, King of the Huns, and Childeric
vowed If God would give him the vic
tory he would embrace the Christian
faith.
King Gustavus Adolphus of Sweden.
in the 80 years war, knelt on the bat
tlefield Of Luetzen C632), before the be-
ginning of the conflict. The prayer OF
a Hungarian officer, before one of the
battles fought for the independence of
Hungary, in 1S49, was as follows: Il
will not ask thee, Lord, to help US, and
/ know Thou wilt not help the Austri-
ans; but II Thou wilt sit on yonder hill
Thou shalt not be ashamed of Thy
children" This was the prayer of the
t1SnIlnR BlSnop Leslie before one OF
the battles fought in Ireland: 20 God,
for our unworthiness we are not fit to
claim Thy help; but If we are bad, our
enemies are worse, and If thou seest not
meet to help us, we pray Thee help
them not, but stand Thou neuter on
this day. and leave 1t to the arm of
the flesh"
The one offered before the battle of
Edge Hill by Sir Jacob Ashley was /:
Thou knowest. o Lord, that l shall be
very busy this day. and If 1 forget
Thee, forget Thee not me-" and then
the command followed, March on,
boys!" AS King Edward advanced
with his columns to Bannockburn, he
remarked TO his aids, seeing the Scotch
on their knees: See, they kneel. The
rebels are asking pardon" D'Umphra-
vile was heard to remark. Yes, but 1t
is to the King of Kings These men
conquer or die on this field"
Oliver Cromwell had public prayers
before going to battle on several occa-
sions, as, for instance, previous to the
battle of Dunbar. 1t is a curious fact
that the English prayer book contains
prayers. or at least one prayer, TO be
said before going into action at sea,
while nothing is provided for use be-
fore engagements on land.

trict court by Judge Holland yesterday
on the charge of grand larceny as bal
lee in the sum of 81 900. Louis Meyer,
bartender at Emil Wetnberger's saloon.
was the complaining witness in the
case, and his testimony was 10 the ef-
tect that on Christmas morning Jack
Hyland and the defendant were in the
saloon and were at the bar talking to
him. Hyland was showing a diamond
which he said had been given TO him.
and Meyer produced a $lS5 diamond
stud, which he wore when of shift.
Davey asked that he be allowed to Gel
citrate Christmas day by wearing Il.
and Hyland said. Yes, that's all right
let him have It,"
Meyer turned the diamond over TO
him and ne Immediately pawned It for
500. with which he celebrated the holt
day season. Meyer asked him for the
stone several times. and on Jan 10 he
promised TO return Il that evening. An
hour later he was on a Union Pacific
train bound for Salt Lake. He was very
nervous and asked the conductor re-
peatedly when they would be across the
Idaho line. He did not cross Il, how
ever, but was arrested at Lima and

DaVey's attorney attempted to throw
the responsibility on to Hyland. but the
court could not see 1t in that light. Da-
Ney was unable to furnish security in
the required amount and was returned

DeLrry McDonald's Side.

The Fletcher affair of Montreal in
which James and John Fletcher are ac-
cused of having swindled an estate of
which they were the administrators
out of about 100000 is attracting a
great deal of attention in Butte and
particularly among the French-Ca-
nadians. In the Montreal La Press of
Jan. 10 James Fletcher had a communi-
cation in which he alleged that his ar
rest was political persecution, or
spite work. and that an error of $32S0
in his accounts was the only charge
against him. The following letter from

tor. was published in La Presse of

present. and in consideration Of his old
age only. AS for the So. so, it is only
one of the numerous cases of defalca-
ton that said James Fletcher is ac-
cused Of but until the end of the pre-
liminary hearing. the examination is
based only on one accusation at a time.

spiracy or persecution or spite work on
