GENERAL TIE-UP THREATENED.
Eight Hundred Painters Go on Strike
at San Francisco
Carpenters, PIasterers and Plumbers
VIII Go Out if the Painters De-
mands Are Not Granted.

SAN FRANCISCO, March 9.-Eight
hundred house painters went out on a
strike in this city this morning. Every
thing had been prearranged by the jour-
neymen, who, to a man, demanded an
increase from 81 30 day, the wages
that had been paid to So, before they
would go to work.
The bosses were greatly surprised as
this demand was unexpected, and all.
with the exception of Thomas Downing.
refused TO stand the raise, and their en-
ployes refused to go to work
1t seems that the action was agreed
upon by the Painters Union some time
ago, but, strange TO say, the bosses
were given no notification Of the in
tended action of the journeymen The
result w2s that they went on figuring on
contracts and relying upon securing
painters at the old rate of 81 80 for a
days work of nine hours.
Many of them have thousands of dol
liars worth of work on hand which they
contracted for on small margins of
profit. If they are compelled to raise
wages they will in consequence suffer
material losses.
George j. Smith, one of the leading
painters, in speaking about the matter
this afternoon said he had no doubt the
bosses would conclude to fight. Had
the union sent US notice a month ago
that they would demand a raise in
wages at this date we would have been
prepared, and their demand would have
probably been granted he said, 'but
to take us by surprise now in the dullest
time of the year. at the breaking up of
a hard winter, is unjust
There is no doubt in my mind what
the result of the strike will be, as his
tory in such events repeats itself
''In the past the bosses have won, and
they will win again if they stand to-
gether. Very few of the men are pre-
pared for a protracted struggle, as they
are short of money and need work @Fe-
side there are 600 painters in the city
who are not members of the union, and
many of them will accept work at the
old figures, and less, if it is offered
them
The tie-up threatens to be general in
the building trades, as the carpenters
and plasterers and plumbers are said to
be in sympathy with the painters. If
the demands of the latter are not COM
piled with the other unions will call
their men out and make the strike gem

BATTLESHIP INDIANA.
A Slight Accident Occurs to the War
ships Machinery.

ships Machinery.
WASHINGTON, March "a dis
patch received at the Navy Department
this afternoon reported that the battle
ship Indiana had met with a slight
accident to her machinery to-day while
leaving Hampton Roads for Port Royal,
South Carolina, which would prevent
her from being docked at that place on
Thursday next. The accident consisted
in the bending of her valve stem, and
several days will be required to make
repairs.
There is much disappointment over
the delay at the Navy Department, as
the high tides necessary at Port Royal
to allow the Indiana to go into the dock
will not be again available for some
time, and the docking may be further
postponed.
The new Government dry dock at
Port Royal is the largest of its kind in
this country, and naval officers have
looked forward with much interest to
placing the Indiana in it, the largest
warship in our navy. The docking is
in the nature of a test, but officials of
the Navy Department are confident that
the Indiana can be placed in the basin
successfully without injury to dock or
ship.

PRECIOUS STONES.
The Circuit Court of Appeals Decides
They Are Not on the Free List.


NEW YORK, March 9-The conten-
ton on the part of a number of import
ers of precious stones that by virtue of
paragraph 467 of the Act of August %,
1894, diamonds are on the free list, has
been definitely disposed of in the mega
tive by a decision rendered in the
United States Circuit Court of Appeals
in this district to-day. A test case was
brought in the United States Circuit
Court some time ago and Judge Town
send decided that diamonds were not
exempted from duty by the Act referred
to. An appeal was taken by the firm of
importers who brought the suit. The
Court of Appeals has sustained Judge
Townsend's decision.
Something over 81, 100000 is involved
in the decision, as had the Government
been defeated all of the duty paid upon
diamonds since the passage of the Act
of 1894 would legally have to be re-
funded on demand.

Timely Topics

"All things in their time and
all things in their place." The
place we hold is that of a
person who is trying to help
matters for the benefit of
those who use goods that is
in our line.
AS Shakespeare says: $50
hallow'd and so gracious is
the time" that we are tempted
to mention a few of the items
that we consider are in season,
viz: all kinds of team collars,
best chain harness, best har-
ness and saddle leather, all
kinds of breeding rings and
harness fittings. TheseIgoods
are seasonable if ever they
are. Something is always
bound to get out of order no
matter how careful you may
be, and you had much better be
prepared for an emergency
than to be placed in a pre-
dicament, when you cannot
afford to lose any time. This
is not a case of whip whip !!
hoorah but of a whip that
will give you value received
for money invested and is
conseeded to be the best re-
preventative of the kind in
Honolulu, and comprises buck
skin lashes, whip lashes and
whip stock, for four, six and
eight horse team. In fact we
are up-to-date in what is
wanted by the plantation men
for every day use.
Going further in this line
we have all kinds of plows
needed by planters, from the
Hendry Breakers (the best
pillow made) to the smallest
of rice plows; from the large
double furrow to the Io-inch
middle plows so popular with
planters.
Some people like to make
their own butter and we can
supply them with the churns
to do the work whether they
want sufficient for a small
family or for the "Richelieu."
Those who make cocktails
should try one Of our Gem
Shavers' as all the experts
agree that the best kind can
be made by using one of these
shavers. You pour your
liquor into what looks like
snow, and the result will
make even the father of a
large family feel as if he own
ed the world and did not care
whether school kept or not.
We have sold most of our
Aluminium Ware, but have a
few of these handsome white
brush and comb sets which
are the best and cheapest
things of their kind ever
introduced.
We do not make a practice
of putting our own wares, but
these good are something that
we wish to cali your especial
attention to. and know that

KISSING OF HANDS TAEooED.
Hyeienic Reasons Lead to Abandonment
of an Austrian Custom.

Hygfenic Reasons Lead to Abandonment
OF an Austrian Custom.
1t has hitherto, says the New Orleans
Picayune, been the custom of the chill
dren attending the public schools in
Austria and Hungary to kiss the hands
Of the teacher on arrival and departure.
This has now been forbidden by an
order from the imperial board of edu-
cation, which bases its action on the
fact that sanitary Investigation has
shown that kissing is unhealthful and
should not be. practiced, except when
absolutely necessary. This brings up
very nice point of law to establish
when kissing is absolutely necessary.
If the public school teachers of Aus
tria and Hungary are old and ugly it
is likely that the scholars will acquiesce
in the new ruling without murmur.
If, on the other hand, the schoolmarms
are pretty young women, like most of
the New Orleans teachers, then the big
boys in Austrian schools may keep up
the good old custom of kissing the
teacher, and plead that it was a case
when kissing was absolutely necessary.
Science is going too far, anyway, when
it finds microbes in kisses and tries
to establish quarantine against them
Kissing goes by favor and not by law
When the kisser is in love and the kissee
is pretty, it is always case of abso-
lutte necessity, not amenable to Austrian
or any other kind of laws.
