HOW TO WARD OFF AN,ATTACK

In speaking of this much dreaded di-
sease, Mr.. G. NJ. Dixon, of Pleasant
Ridge, Pa, said: II have little girl
who is troubled frequently during the
winter months with croupy affections.
Whenever the first symptoms occur,
my wife gives her Chamberlain's
Cough Remedy, and the result is al
ways prompt and satisfactory" This
remedy is used by thousands of moth
ers throughout the United States, and
in many foreign countries, and always
with perfect success. 1t is only ne
cesary to give it freely when the
child become hoarse or as soon as the
croupy cough appears and all symp-
tons of Group will disappear. For
sale at % and so cents per bottle by
all druggists.

A FUGITIVE CAPTURED.

N. Fleming was arrested yes
terday afternoon by Officer Her
rerra on the river bank near City
street as a suspicious character.
He was seen going into a house
on South Flores street, when the
residents were away from home,
and on some one asking him
what he was doing he ran away.
This aroused suspicion that all
was not right and Officer Herrer-
ra, seeing him running gave
chase and captured him.

AN OLD TIME CAPTAIN.

The last and oldest captain in
the Mississippi river is now a res
ident of our city and his name is
Magill. In the ante bellum days
Capt. Magill was connected with
the Vicksburg and Memphis
trade, in which he was called or
placed as A No. 1. In the old
DAYS to be a steamboat captain
was to be a king and this means
that every person who was reg
istered as a passenger on board
of the steamboats, that ran up the
river from New Orleans to points
above had all the attention that
could be given in hotels of hos
elries of any kind throughout
the world. Capt. Magill, with
his steamer Atlantic, made the
famous race or time to Hard
Times Landing, which was not
beaten by the famous race of the
Robt. E. Lee and Hatcher, when
they made the race from New
Orleans to st. Louis in June,
1870. Capt. Magill loves to talk
about the old times on the Mis-
issippi and the writer of this ar
ticle feels that some mention
should be made of the old
pioneers of the grand
old river, the father of
waters. There certainly should
be a tribute of respect to one of
our citizens who has left Louis
lana and has made his home in
Texas. Here to live in the inter
est of his family, and like the
writer of this, for the purpose of
perpetuating his life. May the
old captain live long and prosper
is the wish of his friend.

of the slaves, showing how they
held their celebrations, ran a
way from their masters, were
caught and whipped, etc. After
the entertainment was finished
an old time slave supper, con-
sisting of ash cakes, hOminy,
hogs heads and coffee was
served. An oyster supper was
also served for those who pre-
ferred something more palatable
than a "slaye time" supper.

Honolulu, Sept. 10, 1896.

While in Hawaii we are safe
from those fatal heat waves that
have recently been so disastrous
in parts of the United States,
yet we all like to keep cool,
pleasant and happy. Now al
most the only way, or rather the
best way, is to be the fortunate
possessor of an ALASKA RE-
FRIGERATOR which we have
in different sizes and at proper
tionate prices. They are per-
fection, and beautiful pieces of
furniture
Then there is the ALASKA
ICE CHEST, without compart-
ment, in four sizes ranging in
price from 50 to $1S. They are
necessity in every household,
and so good and cheap as to be
purchaseable by all.
Another convenience in every
home is the GEM ICE CREAM
FREEZER, in capacity from 2
quarts upwards and at extremely
moderate prices.
We must also look after our
beautiful lawns and lovely flowers
and for this purpose we most
highly and sanguinely recon-
mend our 3-inch RUBBER
GARDEN HOSE, which we
have in % and so feet lengths.
Come and inspect these goods
under our new management.

The census will be taken to NOR
row and we hope that all members
OF the community will assist iu max
Jog the statistics to be gathered as
complete as possible. We admit
that some of the questions asked arc
on the verge Of well-developed
idiocy. At the same time we hopr
that the intelligent questions asked
by the enqmerators will be honestly
answered. Persons who are Jews,
Mahomedans, Buddhists, or belong
ing to any creed not tabulated 10
the census blanks may put their 're-
ligion" under the rubrics of mules
and donkeys. Why cats have been
left out is mystery. La fact it
seems that one part of the questions
asked are for the benefit OF the tax
assessor aud the other for the spe-
cial edifcation of the Minister Of
the Foreign Office. Nevertheless,

one know with whom you slept Sun

IL appeared that he in boyish freak
wanted to scare the lady who has
been to him as mother. Ii the

the young man is ruined, because no

Patriotism founded upon politics

Mission Board.
The opening gun of big home mis-

at Carnegie music hall, New York city,
by the board of home missions of The
Presbyterian church. The announce
ment that President Cleveland was to
preside at the meeting drew a large
audience. The meeting was the first of
a series to be held all over the United
States.
There was a burst of applause when
the Rev. DIR. John Hall introduced
President Cleveland as the presiding
officer of the meeting in brief speech.
DR.. Hall, in introducing the president,
said:
"My Christian Friends-We have
with us here one who has been twice
called by the voice of his fellow citi-
zens to the highest official position in
the United States and one WIZ has, I
understand, some happy family asso-
Citations with our board of home mis-
sions. I have the pleasure, therefore,
by the direction of the board of home
missions, and I count it an honorable
duty, to invite the president of the
United States to preside over our pres
emit meeting"
President Cleveland then came for
ward. He was received very warmly
and his address elected close stten-
ton throughout. His remarks on the
foreign missionaries sufferings were
loudly cheered.

SUB COMMITTEE ON FOREIGN
RELATIONS REPORT.
IL is Agreeable to Recognition of the
Insurgents.

The house committee on foreign
affairs, after q warm session OF two
hours, Thursday, adopted q concur
rent resolution declaring it to be the
sense of congress that state of war
existed in Cuba, and that the insur-
gents should be given the rights of
belligerents, and that it was the sense
OF congress that the government of the
United States should use its influence
to stop the war if necessary by inter-
vention and pledging the support of
congress.
The resolution was greeted with
cheers when read, and Mr.. Sulzer,
democrat, Ner York, asked unanimous
consent that the resolution be made a
special order for Tuesday.
Mr.. Meredith, democrat, Virginian,
suggested that it be passed immediate
ly. More cheers and loud applaus>
greeted this suggestion. Mr.. Hit,
chairman of the foreign committee,
said that the committee would ask the
earliest possible consideration of the
resolutions.
The resolutions we're adopted by the
committee and were as follows:
Resolved, by the house of repre-
sentatives 1.-THE senate concurring),
That in the opinion of congress state
of public war exists in Cuba, the par
ties to which are entitled to belIigerent
rights, and the United States should
observe strict neutrality between the
belligerents
"Resolved, That congress deplores
the destruction of life and property
caused by the war now waging in that
island aud believing that the only per.
manent solution of the contest equally
in the interest of Spain, the people Of
Cuba and other nations, would be il
the establishment of a government by
the choice of the people of Cuba, it il
the sense of congress that the govern
ment of the United States should use
it's good offices and friendly influence
to that end.
''Resolved, That the United State
has not INTERVIEWED in struggles be
tween any European governments anC
their colonies on this continent, bu
from the very close relation between
the people of the United States anC
those of Cuba in consequence of it
proximity and the extent of the com
merce between the two peoples tn
present war is entailing such losse
upon the people of the United States
that congress is of the opinion
that the government of the Unite'
States should be prepared to proteC
legitimate interests of Americans b,
Intervention if necessary.
Resolved, That congress pledge
its support to the president in carry
ing out the foregoing resolutions.
The resolutions were adopted afte
a session of over two hours. All bu
two members of the committee VIII
we're present voted for them.
