and Miss Jones of Kentucky :
Lead Admirably.

1t was a very pretty little german
that called together some % couples in
the large dining hall of the Hawaiian
Hotel last night, where palms, potted
ferns, trailing vines and flowers Of va
rious kinds transformed the place into
thing of beauty. Everything was ar
ranged for the comfort of the guests,
who found that they had never been
present at such delightful affair. Ev-
eryone was in a happy frame of mind,
and the german took its tone from
that. The musicians, number of
boys from the Hawaiian National
Band, were stationed near the doors
opening upon the front veranda, and
their music helped materially toward
the success of the affair. DR.. Smith,
of the U. S. S. Adams, and Miss Jones,
of Kentucky, a sister of Mrs. DIR. Mon
sarrat, led the german in a most ad
mirable manner. Those present were:

HOW TO PREVENT PNEUMONIA

At this time of the year a cold is
very easily contracted, and if left to
run its course without the aid Of some
reliable cough medicine is liable to re-
suit in that dread disease, pneumonia.
We know of no better remedy to cure
a cough or cold than Chamberlain S
Cough Remedy We have used it quite
extensively, and it has always given
entire satisfaetion.-Olag Ind. Ter.
Chief
This is the only remedy that is
known to be certain preventive of
pneumonia. Among the many thous-
ands who have used 1t for colds and la
grippe, we have never yet learned of
a single case having resulted in pneu-
monia. Persons who have weak lungs
or have reason to fear an attack Of
pneumonia, should keep the remedy at
hand. The % and 80 cent sizes for

Man Disappears.

News was received by the steamer
IwalaHi Sunday morning of a disaster
that occurred on Kilauea, Kauai, last
week. Three natives went out fishing
in a canoe just after dark. The water
was rough and the wind was blowing
quite strong. Getting into the very
toughest part of the water breaker
caught the boat, turning it upside down
and splitting the occupants into the
water Two Of the men got ashore
alright, and expected at any momenr
to see Keawe, the third member of the
party, but he never put in an appear

the sharks, as he was q good swimmer

which are so fixed that any Jap who is
half spry can throw the three side
stakes out of the pockets in less than

the proper angle, and five tons OF cane

least seven men is dispensed with by
this method of discharging. Cheap

Some OF the plantations import their
goods direct and save the profits of
the middle men. Take Waikiki. for
instance: a few years ago there were
Americans and Europeans who made
money in merchandising; today there
are practically none. and the town
is dead, except during court week.
And some plantation managers, In their
efforts to keep down expenses and run
up their profits to the exclusion and
detriment of the white population. are
doing that which tends to drive out the
middle men OF the country.

Not because have any fear that Japan
has any design on this territory, be-

the Northwest will not be afraid of.
With this class of immigrants there
will be demand for the products and
commerce of the white man, idle land
will be taken up. and the enormous
holdings of the plantations will be di-
vided and the white farmer can raise
cane and sell it. This will come
through annexation, but in no other
way Annexation? should say so, but

as follows; @There are young men
that do not work, my son, but the
world is not proud Of them. +: does
not know their names even; it simply
speaks OF them, as old-so-and- SOS
boys. Nobody likes them, nobody
hates them; the great, busy world
doesn't even know that they are there.
So find out what you want to be and
do, son, and take off your coat and
make dust in the world The bust
er you are, the less develtry you will
get into. and the sweeter will be your
sleep, the brighter and happier your
holidays, and the better satisfied will
the world be with YOU"

The Connecticut Republicans in

declared as follows:
Eve are unalterably opposed to the
issue of unsecured paper currency,
either by the government or banks,
and the free coinage OF silver at any
ratio, and favor a single standard OF
values, and that standard to be gold.
We believe that this policy, with a
stable currency upon gold basis, will
furnish sufficient revenue to meet all
requirements Of the government and
properly support it,"

They Blamed the As.ayer.,

Aesayers are too generally the butt
OF practical jokers in new mining
camps. Many of the old timers I'D in
Utah will remember how the boys got
hold Of a piece OF Mormon's grind
stone and worked it off on the camp
assayer. The assayer made it go $500
to the ton in silver, and he was run
out OF the camp. This is said to be a
true story. In the early days the
Mormon made the grindstones out of
what afterwards was known the world
over as Silver Cliff. That cliff WAS a
sand carbonate and it was eventually
discovered to be wonderful deposit
OF silver ore. But that was too late
to help the poor asssyer who assayed
the grindstone.
