EMPRESS BOATS.
A Report that They are to Touch at this
| Place,

A Report that They are to Touch at this
Place.
A gentleman from Vancouver is
authority for the statement that the
fine Empress boats of the c. P. R.
r. will soon make Honolulu regu-
lar port of call to and from Yoko-
hama. He says the matter was
discussed as settled thing in Van
couver and Victoria shipping cir
cles weeks ago. So far as can be
learned no official information Of
the matter has yet been received
here. 1t is certain that no arrange
ments for landing of the Empress
boats here have been made. There
are those who believe the report,
however, and say the c. P. R. R
people have been considering the
matter a long time.
Color is given this report by the
fact of the Empress steamers car
rying an enormous number OF tour
lists, all of whom desire to visit Ha
wall.

But about prices; while sugar
is up and with the market
showing a tendency to go still
higher we are marking ou1
goods from so to rs per cent
lower than the same quality
sold in other stores. You ash
how we can do it with the ex
penses which naturally follow
the occupancy of a store az
elegant as ours will be. Th'
answer is plain. It's in thu
buyingl When we bough
goods in England, France anc
the United States the manu-
: facturers were hungry, hungr.
. for coin and the supply wa
greater than the demand
, Credit purchasers were plent,
and to sell them required cash
the manufacturers were willin,
to pay a premium for cash Gus

wanted and we got the pre-

al Stone Water Filter is

the most complete water filter
in the market and is the lowest
in price. No better investment
of your money can be made
than by placing an IMPROVED
NATURAL STONE WATER FILTER
in your home and office. Every
dollar expended for pure water
is an investment on which the
interest is paid in good health.
During the late cholera cpl
demic the people of Honolulu
and the other islands saw the
necessity Of having pure water
in their houses.
The Board of Education also
required that all water placed
in the school houses should be
thoroughly filtered before
using.
Out of nearly fifty NATURAL
STONE FILTERS that we had in
stock at the outbreak of chO-
lera we sold them all, placed
second order and finally in
order to accommodate our
patrons loaned the one we had
been using in the Office
These filters are sold all over
the United States, Canada and
the West Indies, and from one
and all of the agencies the very
best of satisfaction is reported.
Let us suggest to you that
you call at our store and see
the filters in working order.

started up the mountain, and while
IN this town Saturday afternoon, tho

These two men left town together
and started for Wytheville. On reach

and bought some apples, aud while
there the old man made the remark
that he did not ke to tr 9, the

and at the same time asked Mr.
Hngey where hc could stop for ,he
night on the other sile of the noun

aud said that ho would take him To-

while they were looking for the horse

The man had been beat in tho head
with club mud three pistol wounds
