Timely Topics.
Honolulu, Sept. 10, 1896.

While in Hawaii we are safe
from those fatal heat waves that
have recently been so disastrous
in parts of the United States,
yet we all like to keep cool,
pleasant and happy. Now al
most the only way, or rather the
best way, is to be the fortunate
possessor of an ALASKA RE-
FRIGERATOR which we have
in different sizes and at proper
tionate prices. They are per-
fection, and beautiful pieces of
furniture,
Then there is the ALASKA
ICE CHEST, without compart-
ment, in four sizes ranging in
price from 80 to $1S. They are
o necessity in every household,
and so good and cheap as to be
purchaseable by all.
Another convenience in every
home is the GEM ICE CREAM
FREEZER, in capacity from 2
quarts upwards and at extremely
moderate prices.
We must also look after our
beautiful lawns and lovely flowers
and for this purpose we most
highly and sanguinely recon-
mend our 4-inch RUBBER
GARDEN HOSE, which we
have in % and so feet lengths.
Come and inspect these goods
under our new management.

a colony OF Germsny, Cuba a terri

when properly applied We read
with unalloyed joy about thrash
ing administered to one b. r. Foss,
lately of Honolulu, by Rev. Father
D. o. Crowley. The punishment of
the Foss fellow which took place in
the afternoon a few weeks ago on
the public streets Of San Francisco
was heartily applauded by the i'm
mense crowd which gathered to look
at the priest whipping the man who
loudly boasted of being an A. P. A.
He is at present Foss-ilized, and it
will take some time before he is
ready to shout against the Catholic
church, amongst he servants OF
which there are few athletes-Foss
was known here as swindler, en-
bezzler, drunkari aud allround dis.

OF course he obtained position as
achool teacher, but even the Board
OF Education had to fire him. His

Crowley apparently is a combina-
