The cleanest, brightest safest and really,
in the long run, the cheapest and best light
for use in the family residence, is the incan.
descent electric light. Safe; nothing could
be safer. A few days ago prominent gen.
tleman of Honolulu came rushing down to
the office of the Electric Company and said:
"Give me figures for wiring my house, and
want it done at once; no more lamps for me.
Last night a lamp tipped over and it came
so near setting fire to the house and burning
my children and l take no more risks"
This is the sentiment of quite number in
the past few weeks, who have ordered their
houses fitted with the perfect light.
Just think it over and make up your mind
that you want the best and safest light; send
for the Hawaiian Electric Company and tell
them what you want. ~.
We have complete stock of everything in
this line and have just received a lot OF the
very latest designs in chandeliers.

FEED THE NERVES

Upon pure, rich blood and you need
not fear nervous prostration. Nerves
are weak when they are improperly
and insufficiently nourished. Pure
blood is their proper food, and pure
blood comes by taking Hoods Sarsap-
arilla, which is thus the greatest and
best nerve tonic. 1t also builds up
the whole system.

BUSY ZINES PROMISED.
Prominent Coal Operator Predicts That
Miners Will Have Lots of Work.

rIOih tut SCTaHlOH ruIn
In speaking of the recent increase in
| the price of coal, William Connell. the
well-known operator of this city, said
that it was due to the demand for coal.
This demand is general, and comes from
all points in the country where anthra-
cite is used
prices have been so low" said Mr..
Connell, that consumers got the idea
that they would be lower, and conse-
quently held up in buying. In many
instances where the owners were not
fortified by good veins, coal was being
sold at an actual loss.
There will be still further advance
within few months, but il will not be
IL heavy one, and prices, therefore, will
not go much higher. The prices should
be advanced so that the larger sizes
would sell for at least 81 ton.
Hrhe result of the present demand
and increased prices will be that the
mines will be kept busy during the re-
naming months of this year Last
year the quota was 45,CO0, 600 tons.
There is no reason why it should be less
this year, Now, we have up to date
mined 15,000,G00 tons for this year.
June will bring this up to $4,000, 600 SO
we will have for the remaining six
months at least 81, 600. 600 tons to mine.
1t will give our miners about all they
can do to get that 27,O00, 900, tons out.
and the result will be a pretty busy time
around our mines for the rest of the
year"

Institutes Closing Exercises.

The closing exercises of the Mining
opera house on Tuesday evening attract
ed an audience that filled the building.
The stage, which was tastefully de-
corated with plants and flowers, was
occupied by the board of directors, the
faculty, Chairman George d. McCreary
and Colonel Charles II. Banes, of Phila,
dclphia, and the students of the insti-
tute who took part in the programme.
With the handsome scenery as back
ground the whole formed a pretty pic
ture, while the large portrait of the late
Hon. Eckley b. Coke, which was sus-
pended in the centre over the stage,
odded further to the pleasing effect
which the decorations produced.
The programme as published on Mon
day was followed without deviation, and
the oratons of the students were re-
ceved with surprise and delight by
their friends and the audience in gen
: eral. The mastery style in which they
handled the difficult subjects assigned
them showed a thorough preparation and
an intimate knowledge of the topics they
spoke upon, and when Chairman Nc
Creary complimented them upon the sue
cess of their efforts he but echoed the
sentiments of every person present.
The address delivered by Colonel
Banes in mcmoram of the late Hon.
Eckley b. Coke, the founder of the
institute, was well received. The
speaker dwelt at length upon the
character of the man, taking up one
trait after another, and showing that
his life was brilliant example of what
, can be performed by establishing higl
standard and following that ideal con
sistently and conscientiously.
His remarks were interspersed witt
kind words of advice to the young mer
who work by day and study by night
and in concluding said he was proud tt
learn that the people of Freeland hao
honored themselves by naming one oi
their educational institutions, the Coke
Memorial school, after their bene
factor.
The Mayberry band rendered severa
choice selections during the evening.
The closing exercises, which were the
third held by the institute, were tho
most successful in its history, and the
people of town can well afford to fee
proud of the work it is doing.
