KEEP ON THE STREETS.
But Let Watering Carts do Their
Duty Less EmphaticallY.

In yesterday mornings Advertiser
appeared a notice from Marshal Brown
to all bicyclists warning them against
riding on the sidewalks of the city.
The paper had not been out very long
before several business men, who make
it practice to ride to town on their
bicycles, were seen walking along on
the sidewalks wheeling their bicycles
beside them. One of the number met
an Advertiser reporter and delivered
himself as fallows:
I'VE get a notice from the Marshal
to keep off the sidewalks, and then
directly on top of this the water carts
deluge the principal streets of the city
so that it is absolutely impossible to
ride upon them with any degree of
safety to our necks or with a guaran-
tet of any degree of cleanliness to our
wheels.
The streets, I believe, are watered
every day, but the drivers of the carts
seem bent upon putting enough water

DOGS in the Pound.

Some 40 dogs were taken TO the
Government pound III Iwilei yesterday,
where they will remain a few days,
in order that their owners may have
a chance TO claim their own, pay the
regular tax and incidentally bargain
with the harness maker for good
leather collar.
When a certain gentleman in town
heard yesterday that a number of dogs
had been imprisoned, he remarked
that it might be a good thing for the
dog cart to visit Makiki
Another gentleman living on Punch
bowl slope deplored the fact that there
are no special goat pounds.

AT THE THEATRE.
Montague-Faust Company Made
Tremendous Hit.


Tremendous Hit.
The Montague-Faust Combination
was greeted at the New Hawaiian OPP
era House last night by a most en-
thusiastic audience, the applause at
times reminding one of some of the
best nights of the Frawley Company.
If there was any doubt yesterday as
to the ability of the Fausts to create
laughter by furnishing genuine clean
comedy, there was none of it left after
the curtain went down on the first
part of the entertainment. The act by
the bell ringers was an innovation to
Honolulu, and it met with immediate
success, and the audience demanded
several encOres. The company fur
nished sweet music and without false
note.
Freddy Faust's ballad singing rivals
Master Russell of the Elsie Adair Com
pany, and his stage appearance is good
He has an intensely rich voice, with
wide range.
Miss Fernandez showed rare eXecu-
ton with the mandolin, and as accom-
panyist on the piano, she gave perfect
satisfaction.
Little Ruby Faust, too, proved her
self a capital entertainer with her
songs.
The gems of the evening were, of
course. the musical acts by the Faust
brothers, Ted and Eugene, and the fam
lily in the famous Risley act The
tumbling and balancing in this act has
not been equaled by any troupe that
has shown here in years.
Referring again to the musical acts:
The violin duet and duet on bassoOn
and claTiOnet created an immense
amount of amusement and warranted
the several encores that were given.
A new program will be given on
Thursday night, tickets for which will
be on sale at the Wall, Nichols Com
pany today.

tive ticket as follows: A senator and repre-
sentative to Wilmington, and representa-
tive to the following hundreds s-Appo
quinimink, White Clay Creek, Christiana,

THE Democrats meetin State Cor
vention on Tuesday, August IS, to
nominate electors and candidates for
Governor and Representative in Con-
gress. The attitude of the party to-
wards the financial question is aggita-
ting the minds of the party leaders now.
The last convention was for gold
though Mr.. John f. Salisbury was
sent to Chicago as delegate and he
returns in triumph as the political bo IS
o. the State, the cham ion of free coin
age of silver and the dispenser of fed
eral patronage in case B.yan is elected.
1t is already stated that he is candid
ate for the United States Senate and it
is evident that the sound money lead
ers in the party have lost their grip.
The most that they Can do is to pre-
vent the adoption of radical silver reso-
lutions. For the time Senator Gray
takes back seat, many Democrats say
IL mtanSsn1S retirement.
The question of Gubernatorial
nominee is another serious matter with
cur friends, the enemy. tits said that
Mr.. Tunnel has positively declined to
again accept the nomination. His
choice is C9l. james J. r 'ss, of Sea.
ford, but New Castle county has can
didates and the friends of one of them
present his claims IT, the people
through the columns of the TRAN
SCRIPT to-day. The TRANSCRIPT has
hundreds of Democratic readers and it
is to these that Mr.. Forl appeals his
case and sets forth his claims. The

may win.

NAME AND DEVICE.

The Australian Ballot Law provides
that each party shall adopt q name and
device to designate and mark the
ticket of the purity on the big bal
lots. Both Of the conventions last week
adopted the same name and device, the
one used by the ptrry at previous elec-
tions, "Repnblican Party, and an eagle
with outstretched Wings.'' Under the
law it is The dnty of The Clerks OF the
Peace of The several cpun les to decide
which OF the contending parties is en-
titled to use fhe name and device.
Clerk Of The Peace Foard received the
certificates from The committees on
Saturday and Monday and at once noti-
fed the other clerks to meet him in
Dover on Thursday when they would
hear the case and decide. Argument
was made for The Regulars" by
Messrs Bradford, Bird and Richards,
and Messrs. Hayes. Watson and Cahall
spoke for the Addicks people. 1t was
shown that in the call for the Conven-
tion of May 12 there was no. provision
for electing 5 ate Central Committee
but it Was understood that the matter
would be pos poned Until the Guber-
Material Cynventi.n, therefore the Ad-
dicks state Committee is irregular
and without authority. The turning
down Of MI. Aidicks at st. Louis by
the National Cotnm;ttee and the Ma
tional Convention was reviewed. and
the recognition of the Regulars" with
General Wilson as The member of the
National Committee was set forth.
Other strong points we're made and the
decision was unanimous in favor Of
the regularity and standing of the
Georgetown Convention and its nomi-
nees. Every authority agrees that Mr..
Addicks is not a Republican.
How long will Republicans follow
such leadership? To go any further
takes them outside the Republican
Party. Thoughtful men are seeing
this, and because Mr.. Addlcks has
shown total .llingness to COM
promise in the least but has desire to
sacrifice every Republican interest to
his rule and ruin policy, it is said, ex-.
Postmaster Stewart, of Wilmington,
has left him. That is right; it is pa
triotic. Other Republicans should do
the same and at once. The future of
the party demands it.. The Addicks
Party lives only in Mr.. Addicks; take
away his money and it dies in night.
Republicanism is founded on a princi-.
pie and depends upon no man or set of
men for its vitality. AS the TRAM
SCRIPT has said before-it is not Hig-
gins, nor Bird, nor DUPONT, nor Mas
sey, nor Bradford, nor Hoffecker, nor
Houston, nor Willis, nor Wilson, nor
any other man or set of men, it matters
not what their character, ability or
party service, but it is the Republican
Party. It shoald not be Addicks with
any Republican but there. o. z. Let
factions be buried. let personalities be
forgotten, let differences be healed
and let true Republicanism assert itself
and party patriots come to the front
and with manliness assert that the
party is above any man or set of men
and let the rally be made under the old
name and device, the Republican Party
always and the American Eagle, the
emblem Of liberty and independence.

FROM BACK TO BACK IN A DAY.

From Harper's Round Table.
Make a coat in a day: from shear
ing the wool from a sleeps lack to
putting the finished garment on
one's own back. Nonsense! it could
not be done. This would probably
be the reply to any one claiming
such a thing, or, il not, at least one
would receive a reply expressing a
strong doubt Of the possibility of do
Ing 30, Notwithstanding the vast i'm
provements in machinery within the
last fifty years. The feat, however,
was accomplished even as far back
as 1921, by John Coveter, OF Green
ham Mills, near Newbury, England.
At five O'Clock in the morning
Mr.. Coveter was presented with two
Southdown Wedder sheep. At first
the sheep we're hoin,the wool spun,
the yarn spoiled, warped, doomed
and wove. After that the cloth was
buried, milled, rowed, dyed, pressed,
and late in the afternoon put in the
hands Of the tailors. By half past six
the coat was anished, and Mr.. Gov
eter presented 1t to one Of the gem
tlemen of the town amid the thun-
der.ng applause Of FIVE thousand
spectators.
