ON THE
PRESIDENT OF VENEZU-
Ella AND OTHER
INTERESTING
MATTERS.

President CreSpo OF Venez-
uela is a tall, heavy man, with
a countenance revealing force
and determination. He is very
abstemiouS in his habit and
generally goes to bed at 8
O'Clock in the evening. He is
in the habit of Summoning his
Ministers to him at sunrise.
He is fond of cattle-ranching,
and owns a large number OF
acres not far from the Venezu-
elan capital. Heis a fine eques-
trian and has an unlimited
amount of backbone. He also
knows a good thing when a
friend puts him on to it. If he
lived in Honolulu he would be
one of the first to call at the
store of the Hawaiian Hard
ware Company and examine
some of that fine cutlery just
received by the last Australia.
Beyond question we have now
displayed on our shelves and
in our windows and showcases
the finest lot of cutlery ever
brought to these Islands.
One of those fine carving
sets with ivory or buckhorn
handles in handsome plush
cases would be just the thing
to take the fancy of President
Crespo or his great and good
friend Grover Cleveland. We
have also smaller sets of cary
ers, designed for game and
tete-a-tete dinners.
In the matter of Knives we
have a new stockIof everything
in the line, comprising butter,
kitchen, Skinning, dessert, table,
putty medium, hunting and
pocket knives in an almost be-
wildering variety.
Those little pearl-handled
butter knives are dandieS and
you will want one as soon as
you see them.
Another useful little article
is a pocket nail-cleaner and
file, which is a novelty and
quite cheap.
We are entirely out of bicy-
cles, having closed out our en-
tire stock last week. We ex-
pect a big lot of the 1896
model of the Tribune and Mon
arch wheels by the next steam
er and shall be pleased to take
your order in advance.
We have also on hand a
fresh supply of Fresh coffee
pots, which sell like hot cakes.

Henry E. Alvord, one of the best
known Agriculturists in America,

tural Experiment Station), says:
During the years 1888 and 1889
there were ten (1O) abortions here on
the Agricultural College Farm, and
but three (3) calves were dropped on
time and lived.
y In January, 1890, at the suggestion
of Mr.. A. l. Hayward, we obtained
some of your Kow-Kure. and began
using it as a preventive of abortion.

Fishing at Marlboro Pond.


Marlboro South pond will be the Mecca for
fishermen next May. The New England
Trout and Salmon club has thrown up its
hands, and fishing will be enjoyed there with
out fear or favor, as in the days of old. The
members Of the club have held two meetings
since the recent finding of the Windham
County court, which decided that the waters
were boatable and that the public had, there
fore, right to use them for boating and fish
ing. rhe clubs property is for sale and
keeper will no longer be employed to live in
the house at the pond. All legal proceedings
will be dropped. In other words, the club
acknowledges defeat and wants to sell out.
The club has expended $4,000 to l4,000, or
well toward S400 per member. Most of the
club members have been thoroughly tired of
the project for the past two years, but they
had made the purchase with the expectation
that they could control the pond, and the case
had gone so far that there was nothing left to
do but to fight it through to a decisive end.
Thousands of trout were put into the pond.

for the better, a sound money basis, more
health giving climate, and more Christ
like spirit among the inhabitants of this mum
dane sphere.
