CIRCUS BACK AGAIN.
Receive Gifts of Animals from senator
Rice.

The circus has arrived again
after a very successful trip on
Kauai, having played to crowded
houses each night. They showed
four times at Lihue, proceeding
thence overland to Waimea,
where three performances were
given. Members of the troupe
were all individually compliment
ed upon the excellence Of their
skill.
While at Lihue, Senator Rice,
the stockman, presented little Mu-
riel Wirth with a handsome pony,
and Mr.. Burns with a blooded
Berkshire pig, which he is train
ing to perform various tricks and
sing Qua like me ka Puaa."
Hayes, the clown and all-round
acrobat, also fell heir to a pony,
in this wise: Mr.. Rice offered
him horse providing he would
ride it twice round the paddock
without tumbling off. A roam colt,
we'll known for its bucking capa-
city, was led out and Mr.. Hayes,
after speaking to the animal a
moment, calmly climbed aboard
the hurricane deck of the animal,
not even taking the precaution of
removing his pipe from his mouth.
Lo and behold |! The horse never
make kick, but walked around
the yard as quietly as Mary's
little lamb.
"The horse is yours" quoth Mr.
Rice. "No, how did you do it?"
"Why, me bloomin' toff," re-
piled Hayes, 81 hypnotized him
with me bleedin' pipe, seer He

away, son; you may ride me all
day, only take it away So | rode

was very rough, the heavy seas
sweeping clean over the vessel
Mr.. Montgomery and the officers
of the Kauai were up the entire
night with the horses.

mates, their efficiency and care
and the efforts to make the triI
as comfortable as possible. Al

W,W..DIMOND'S

One thing that has been in
strumental in keeping up the
price of goods in Honolulu is
the combinations among retail
dealers; legitimate enough in
it's way but it savors of a Trust
and the public does not like
Trusts.
AS the proprietor of the
largest hardware, crockery and
house-furnishing establishment
in the islands we begin bust
ness with the view to secur-
ing your patronage. We can
get it in one way only. Per
sonal friendship is a good thing
to possess but it cuts no ice in
a business transaction; it's the
dollars that count. We are
going to get your trade on the
basis of dollars and cents.
Having bought our stock
direct from the manufacturers
and at trife less than living
prices, we will sell them on the
same plan. To start right we
took the prices of our competi-
tors on the same line of goods,
and in most instances cut them
n two some of them only a
quarter off, none the same, the
average is half off what other
dealers get you to pay for
them. We can do this and
make a good profit, good
enough to let you and ourselves
live and enjoy all the beauties
of this semi-tropical country.
It's hard for you to believe
that, but you will be convinced
OF the fact II you Will visit us
on the 18th. Then you will
see the goods with the prices
marked on them in plain
figures and those are the
prices you may buy them at,
not less, because we mark them
in the first instance at just the
price we can afford to sell
them at.
Remember the 18th.

AT THE METHODIST CHURCH.
Rev. MIR. Peek Talks on the Roman
catholic Religion.

Rev. MIR. Peek Talks on the Roman
catholic Religion.
At the evening service of the
Methodist Churoh yesterday Rev.
Mr.. Peck spoke on "Romanism
and Reformation" At the CON-
mencement of his discourse he an
nounced it as being the first Of a
series of five on the Roman Cath
Ole religion and alleged infalli-
bility of the Pope. He said that
the claim Of the Catholic church
that the authority of the Pope was
derived through st. Peter as the
direct successor of Jesus Christ
was not tenable and quoted many
passages of the scriptures to show
that under the Jewish customs
Peter was not the head of the
church, but that that honor be-
longed to James. The reverend
gentleman then proceeded to de-
molish the Roman Catholic con-
tention that Peter estab
lished the church in Rome
after the death of Christ by trying
to prove that Peter was
not in Rome for twenty-five
years after the crucihxion.
In support of his view Mr.. Peck
said that in all his writings st.
Paul never mentioned the fact of
Peters being in Rome and other
contemporary writers always
spoke Of him as being absent or
on a journey. The latter portion
of the reverend gentleman's dis
course was devoted to a dis
cussion of the doctrine of infalli-
bility as set forth by the Ecumeni-
cal Council.
