several years has been manager OF the
store, was seen last evening by III
bune reporter Present prohality in
fers that the store will not be re-
opened by the same firm, although Mr
Mason would not say point blank t"
that effect. The cause of the failure
is due primarily to rent due on the
store room.
Early yesterday morning constable
levied upon the store goods To the
amount of 5000 in favor of q. w. Clark,
owner of the store building. In order
to counteraCt the sudden onslaught,
Mr.. Mason judiciously closed the store
in the manner mentioned. The long
standing of the firm as one of the best
on the West Side with goods which
attracted patronage from prominent
families, makes the closing of the store
a matter of more than usual interest.

the question, care we not weary,
Oh so weary! OF hearing about the

where-all this time-is the new

to say that undoubtedly there is
one. He is not necessarily young
man. Indeed he may be included
anywhere between nineteen and
ninety, "his birth, education and
status what they will, he is still
the new man If he believes in him.
self and his own times, is unfet-
tered by traditions and uncon-
WINGED by axe or gibbet that all
virtue is the past's."
OF coursewe are most interested
in what this sprightly writer has to
say about the new man IN the pull
pit. Sure enough, she has some
thiog to say about him. Hear her:

ISALUTES AND MUSIC.
WELCOME TO THE PRESIDENT UPON
HIS RETURN.
Great Crowd at the Pier-saIutes From
Ships and Shore On Ha-
wall

The President and party returned
from Hawaii and Maui by the w
G.. Hall Tuesday afternoon. A
great crowd assembled on the
Island wharf to welcome
them. The band was also in at.
tendance and played. At the
steamer entered port the shore bat
terry fired the national salute of 81
guns. The Boston and Bennington
did the same.
Ministers Cooper and King, the
Attorney General, Major Potter,
Captain Camara and others
went aboard to meet
the President. A detail Of police
was drawn up from the gangway to
keep the crowd back. Mrs. Dole,
who wrenched an ankle while at
Kailua, had to be brought ashore in
a chair. The President and wife
drove Immediately to their home on
Emma street.
The President states that his trip
has been most gratifying. There
was little demonstration, except at
Hookena and Lahaina where recep-
tons were prepared. This was
satisfaction to the President, as he
preferred going among the people
and meeting them in an informal
manner.
He saw a great deal of native
Hawaiians on the trip. They
seemed prosperous and satisfied.
The question of most interest to
them seemed to be land, and not
politics On Hawaii there is great
among Hawaiians in
the agricultural pursuits.
At Lahaina the Presidential
party was received with considera-
Bile ceremony. The wharf was
decorated, flags were displayed and
the population was out en- masSe.
For the next few days the President
will be very busy. He has yet to
his message to the Legis-
lature, which will meet two weeks
from today.
