A Popular Drink.

Messrs. w. c. Peacock x Co,
who enjoy reputation as knowing
a good thing when they see it,
struck a popular wave when they
introduced Pabst beer in Homo
lulu a short time ago. From the
first day of its arrival the beer
was pronounced by cOnnoisseurs
to be far ahead of any other
brought into the country. Moth
ing so readily relieves thirst as
Pabst famous Milwaukee beer.
1t can be procured at the COsmo-
pOlitan, Pacific and Royal saloons.

SAN FRANCISCO, March 10
There is much agitation over
the news that the Hawaiian Leg
islature, now in session, proposes
to place a prOhibitory duty on Cal
ifOrnia wines.
Last fall they had an intimatiOn
that such a course was to be TIA,
ken and prepared for agitation at
Washington for retaliation, but
promises were made which Undue
ed them to remain quiet. Now,
however, information has reached
them which induces them to be-
lieve they have been duped, and
the steamer which sails today for
Honolulu will carry a demand for
an immediate explanation, with a
threat of attack on the Sandwich
Island sugar industry if the reply
be not satisfactory.
Under the present Hawaiian
tariff, California wine is charged
ID cents a gallon. 1t is now pro-
posed to increase this to 80 cents
a gallon on all wine of less
than IA per cent. alcohol, and to
30 cents gallon on all wine above
that alcoholic strength.
AS nearly all the wines sent
from here are sweet, containing
about 20 per cent. of alcohol, they
would have to pay duty of 80
cents gallon. The viticultural
lists of California have had great
difficulty in resisting the inrOads
of japanese sake, which pays only
10 cents duty, and realize that if
the proposed increase of over 200
per cent. is added to their product
it will be driven from the Ha-
waiian market and the sweet-wine
trade be effectually destroyed.
The warning has been given that
If this is carried out the people of
California will not rest until they
have secured the abrogation of
the Hawaiian reciprocity treaty,
whereby Sandwich island sugars
are benefited several million dol
lars annually, while the United
States and California. it is assert
ed, gain nothing in return. The
wine men say they were led to be-
lieve that California wines would
be placed on the free list, but if
they are to be cut off entirely, a
bitter fight against the reciprocity
treaty will be commenced in
Washington and conducted to the
bitter end.

Sole Deposit Boxes!

WE HAVE A FEW MORE BOXES
in our Safe Deposit Vault which are
not yet rented. There are four sizes,
varying in price from $12 to $50 per
year. Any private papers left in
these boxes are perfectly safe, as the
vaults are fire proof and are fitted with
time locks, which makes them abso-
lutely burglar proof. There are two
keys to each box, both of which are
given to the party renting box, and
should these keys be stolen they
would be useless to bearer as he could
not open the box without our master
key being first inserted.
Parties leaving the Islands for their
summer Vacations will find it a con-
venient place to leave any valuables.
Boxes can be rented by the month
or year as desired. Apply to

The Value
OF Good
Eye Sight.

Some things areright in my
line, and the optical business
is one of them.
This department is one to
which | devote most of my
time, giving the greatest
amount of care and attention
to each individual case. Eyes
are tested in a scientific
manner.
The. latest appliances are
used, which make the test
less trying to the patient,
and we guarantee absolutely
perfect results in every case.
The value of a correct and
comfortably fitting glass can
not be over estimated in such
cases where the trouble is
directly due to imperfect
vision. Many see distant
OBJECTS we'll, yet are, Con-
SANITY troubled with per-
haps. headaches, "a burning
sensation in the eyes, or oc-
casional blurring of the print
when reading, yet are reluc-
tant. to attribute it to an
actual defect of vision.
Being able to discern dis
tant objects. is by no means
a sure indication that your
eyes are normal.
Extreme far sight is as
great a defect as near sight.
and; requires the same treat
ment.
Glasses are the only relief,
and these should be of the
right kind.
1t is our business to supply
you with only these.
