1t is hoped that there will be large
attendance at the Cleaners lawn party

one The proceeds will be devoted to
the support of a little Chinese girl who
has been adopted by the society, the
education of several girls in Kawaiaho
Seminary, donations to the kindergar-
ten work, clothing poor children and
other work of like character.
Lawn parties have been given for the
past five years and have always proved
very enjoyable. Numerous articles in
the line of fancy work, paper novelties,
will be offered for sale, and there will
also be booths where flowers, candy,
tea, lemonade and ice cream and cake

GRAND CIRCUS TONIGHT.
Rehearsal Last Night-EverythinS
in Good Shape.

.
in Good Shape.
There was a rehearsal of a few of the
acts at the Hawaiian Circus last night.
A number of invited guests were pres
ent, besides half hundred small boys
who crawled under the tent in defiance
of the cUrfew bill.
Mr.. Gonzales, the ring master and di-
rector of the ring performance. put the
boys and the horses through a number
of tricks in an excellent way. Prof.
Brothers played the piano in a way that
gave the audience the impression that
his fingers moved by electric power.
The little misses of the Gonzales fam
lily did not go through their parts, but
the smaller one threw a number of i'm
promptu flip-faps around the ring in
very easy and graceful manner.
Seats for the performance tonight are
on sale at the Wall Nichols Co., King
street

MIR. GREEN KICKS BACK.
The Man Who Don't Like the
English Memorial Sermon.

MR.. EDITORIAL evening paper $50
called, in It's issue Of Thursday, the
21st, amused its If and possibly few
of its few readers with weighty criti-
cism on the conduct of the De Long
Post.
The subject matter of its mutterings
is so utterly false from beginning TO end
as to need no refutation from the G. a.
r. or it's friends. The Post did not in
vite the Rev Mr. Peck to take part, nor
did that gentleman offer to take any
part in our Memorial Day exercises.
But as the above named article might
mislead some who are not well informed
in G. A r. matters, 1 feel it a duty to
make some explanations.
The rules and Regulations of the Ma
tiOnal Encampment require every G. A.
r. Post to attend divine services in a
body on the Sunday next previous to
Memorial Day This order takes from
that service every trace of political sig
nificance, either local, national or inter
national; nor need such service have
any reference to the late war, or the
part borne in that conflict by the vet
Grams, so that they take their places in
the pews as common sinners and expect
to be preached to as such.
If on that occasion clergymen seize
the opportunity TO euIogize the old sol
diers, it is a mistake on their part
since provision is made for such eXer-
cises on Memorial Day.
There are to be found here and there
Americans who seem TO feel that the
first great duty OF an American citizen
is to curse an Englishman. They are
like the Irishman who fell to beating a
Jew because the Jews creucified his
Savior, and when told that the event
happened eighteen hundred years ago,
said he did not care he had just heard
of it,
We have in Honolulu one, perhaps
two, Americans who seem to imagine
that their tea is about to be taxed, or
that in some way every Englishman
is seeking to pluck the plumage of the
American eagle. But when an Ameri- !
can becomes so narrow and clannish
that he cannot conscientiOusly listen to
a Gospel sermon from the lips of a
clergyman who happened to be born IN
Canada instead of Michigan, it is time !
he was translated to some other planet. |
Such men would be miserable in .hea- !
ven, for they would certainly find Wing |
lishmen there.
Our Post has for thirteen consecutive |
years been the guests of the Fort Street
and Central Union churches, where we
have always been cordially welcomed
and most delightfully."- entertained and
instructed. No Post of the G. A. R. in
America has been more highly hOnored
or more kindly treated than our Post
has been by the officers, members and
of the Central Union
Church, fact we most sincerely appre-
ciate.
This year we received an invitation
from the pastor of another church and
on gregation of Americans to meet with
hem, and accepted the invitation, for
the reason that we are not Rectarian,
md also that we had received no other
invitation. r. JAY GREEN,

For every quarter in a mans pocket
there are a dozen uses, and to use each
one in such way as to derive the great
est benefit is question everyone must
solve for himself. We believe, however,
that no better use could be made of one
of these quarters than to exchange it
for a bottle Of Chamberlain's Collie,

NEW YORK, Dec. 29.-The Evening Posts
London financial cablegram: There was
general advance in the stock market here to-
day. led by rise Of n in consols on very
good buying. Mines shared in the general
rally. All the markets closed at the best,
except Americans, which were rs off because
of lack of support. The cable dispatches
about the settlement of the Cuban question
were not much needed by the stock exchange
Today's squirt in prices is not taken too
seriously here 1t may of course, be the
prelude to better things next year, but on
its face it looks like bears closing out at
the end Of the year, together with strenuous
efforts of speculative operators to hoist prices
in order to attract the public at the begin
ming of the new year. There is strong de-
mand for money. The Paris and Berlin
bourses were steady.

NEW YORK, Dec 29.-Special cable and
Geographic dispatches to Bradstreet's, COW
ering the principal points of accumulation
indicate the following changes in available
supplies of grain last Saturday as compared
with the preceding Saturday:
Wheat-United States and Canada, east of
the Rockies, decrease, SIS, 900 bu; afioat for
and in Europe, decrease, 1850 600 bu; total
decrease worlds available, 1855, 900. Corn
United States and Canada, east of the Rockies
increase, zoos, 600 blu. Oats-United States
and Canada, east of the Rockies, increase,
1,069 900 blu.
The more important increases in available
stocks OF wheat last week, not covered in
the of1clal visible supply statement, are
lOO,0OO Blu each at Port William, Ont, at
various Manitoba storage points and in North
western interior elevators in the United
States and 10000 blu at Omaha. Correspond
ing decreases include A 900 blu in Chicago
private elevators $4,000 blu at Galveston
$4,000 Blu at Minneapolis private elevators and
$4,000 blu at Louisville
MARKET GOSSIP.
Gossip by private wire to C. H. F. Smith
& Co., st. Paul. members of New York stock
exchange and Chicago board of trade:
Chicago closing year ago today: May wheat
59Ac; corn, 28Ac; oats, 19c; pork, 1897; lard,
S5.55; ribs, 4.52.
Everybody believes that but for the inan-
cial troubles wheat would already be higher,
and further that the wheat situation will last
longer than the money depression, and con-
sequently wheat will be higher anyway
The Russian official estimate makes the
total wheat crop 129 680 900 bu; rye, 70S 720 900
blu. This makes the wheat crop 80 DOC, 900 bu
short.
A Berlin cable says the may option on
wheat is no longer quoted officially, the anti
option bill becoming law Jan. 1.

MINNEAPOLIS MARKET.

MINNEAPOLIS, Dec ga much quieter
feeling has control in the butter market at
tended by reductions in the price of extra sep
arator goods and firsts. Other lines remain
with quotations unchanged. Liberal supplies
in both creameries and dairies are responsible
for this. The demand is lighter than for some
time with the retail trade anxiously looking
around to see where they can obtain light
supplies the cheapest. Packing stock is
trifie easier. Eggs dropped a full cent today
The jobbing inquiry is unmportant for the
reason that most of the handlers are we'll sup
piled, and the outlet is generally unsatisfac-
tory. Dressed poultry is in fair request on
both chickens and turkeys with prices I'M
changed. Ducks and geese are moving mod
erately well. Veal is in casual call and the
feeling steady on account ofo light receipts.
Mutton and lamb are rather dull, with
dressed hogs Ac lower. liTese
