The Ehlers Fire.

The jury empanelled to investi-
gate the fire which destroyed the
store OF B. f. Ehlers q Co. Thurs
day morning, finished their task to-
day. Several witnesses were examin-
ed but no evidence was brought for
ward which can lead to a solution
of the mystery connected with the
origin OF the fire.
The total loss of Ehlers & Co. is
estimated at $4,000 and not at $15,-
600 as stated through typographi-
cal error in our last issue.
The building, which is the pro-
perty OF Mr.. James Campbell, will
probably not be repaired, as it has
been the wish OF the owner for some
time tc erect proper structure on
these premises and the adjoining
lots. If the government would take
the necessary steps to widen Fort
street, as provided by the last
Legislature, the erection of the new
Campbell block will perhaps be-
started at once, and another orna-
mental structure grow up on Homo
lulu's main street.

Who Goes Home ?

Of all the quaint customs of the
House of Commons, the most curl
Gus, perhaps, is the ceremony which
marks the termination OF its every
sitting. The moment the Eouse is
adjourned, messengers and police
men shout out in the lobbies and
corridors, "Who goes homer" These
mysterious words have sounded
through the Palace of Westminster
every night for centuries. This
strange custom dates from time
when it was necessary for rlembers
to go home in parties, accompanied
by linkmen, for common protection
against the footpads who infested
the streets OF London. But though
that danger has long since passed
away, the question, "Who goes
homes" is still asked night after
night at Westminster by officials
who receive no reply and, indeed,
expect none.

A REVIEW OF FACTS.

We reprint on our fourth page an
extract from an article contributed
to the Forum by George Walton
Green, upon "Mr. Cleveland's Sec
ond Administration. Mr.. Green
assumes that the endeavor to restore
the Queen was mistake; but he
may not be aware that the Pro-
visional Government advised the
Queen and her Cabinet that the
question of her right to the throne
would be submitted to the author
tiles at Washington for decision.
. Mr.. Cleveland in his message to
Congress said: y But the
United States had allied itself with
her "(the Queen'sv enemies, had
recognized them as the true Gov
ernment of Hawaii, and had put her
and her adherents in the position of
opposition against lawful authority.
She knew that she could not with.
stand the power of the United States
but she believed that she might
safely trust to it's justice. Accord
ingly, some hours after the recog-
milton of the provisional govern
ment by the United States Minister,
the palace, the barracks and the
police station, with all the military
resources OF the country, were de-
livered up by the Queen upon the
the representation made to her that
her cause would thereafter be re-
ceived at Washington, and while
protesting that she surrendered to
the superior force of the United
States, whose Minister had caused
United States troops to be landed at
Honolulu and declared that he
would support the provisional gov
ernment, and that she yielded her
authority to prevent collision OF
armed forces and loss OF life and
only until such time as the United
States, upon the facts being present.

Residents on Young street are
complaining of the treatment allot-
ted to them by the Road Supervisor
Young street is settled from one end
to the other. The repairs granted
to the street are of nature which
in wet weather makes it a mudhole,
and in dry weather makes it suitable
for anyone desiring "red dust
bath" The residents feel justified
in kicking by seeing the attention
given to Wilder avenue which is be-
ing macadamized for the benefit of
the five or six residents living on
that new street. 1t is about time
that the Government ceases spend
ing the taxpayers money on "fair-
weather" streets, as Noble Phillips
at one time termed the Punchbowl
road and other fancy thoroughfares
of the reform government. Let the
streets used by the ordinary tax
payer have a show.

By the Government extending the

termed "Calamity Howlers," the
friends of The INDEPENDENT will aid

A bid for political favor shows a

Gle manufacturing in nearly all
countries of the world, even in
cluding modernized little Japan,
are thrilling to read of.
These little MISUNDERSTANDING
conveniences are now being
manufactured by the millions
instead of by the few hundreds
of ten or fifteen years ago, and
it is estimated by a cicylist
authority that they are at least
1000 different patents and de-
signs in connection with them.
But we note, in an English
exchange, the curious fact that
the palaces and parks Of the
die-hard aristocracy are gradual
ly succumbing to the inevitable
and passing into the hands Of
the cicyclist autocrats. The item
informs us that Trafford Park,
Sir H. de Trafford's seat near
Manchester, has been purchased
for e360,000, ($1, ,S00,000) by
the syndicate which recently ac-
quired the Dunlop Tyre and
Singer Co. 1t is proposed to
make the estate the seat of the
cycle and rubber trade.
Now, we have made such
success of our different brands
of wheels that our fame has
gone abroad. We have our own
predictions in favor of GER
tain make, but, when, unsoli-
cited, we received a consignment
of a popularity favorite brand
without a flaw, perfection itself,
in strength, beauty and shape
and manufactured by a world
wide known firm, we could not
be discourteous enough to return
them, without endeavoring to
put them on the market. The
fact is we have had six of those
celebrated Zimmerman cham
pion wheels for gentlemen sent
to us, and we invite cyclists to
call and inspect them and to use
their own judgement as to
whether they want them or not.
AS they have been sent to us
on consignment, we prefer to
sell them and close the consign-
ment, instead of returning them.
We therefore offer them at $40
each instead Of at the regular
price of 800. We admit that
they are beauties and we don't
think they will be on our hands
for many days, but as we have
only half a dozen on hand, the
first applicant will have his
pick. They are first-class high
grade machines and very tempt
ing to experts.

addressed some six or seven hun
dred colored and some twenty or
thirty white Republicans. Good at
tention was paid the speaker and
his utterances were conservative.
He claimed like Mckinley, that the
