PORK and BEANS with TO

they're cheap. Two tins for a

Cleanliness is next to godli-
ness, and in this hot and dusty
city regular bathing is absolute
ly necessary as preservative of
health and strength.
To persons of sensitive con-
stitutions and thin blood, the
weather is becoming too tickle
and cold for regular sea bathing,
so the home bath has to be used
more frequently.

Is AN MEX ALTON POSSIBLE.

The hirelings Of the Government
who are paid to howl against all
true republican ideas which would
interfere with the military oligarchy
of Mr.. Dole, have gone into Mysteries

1t has been somewhat amusing to
notice the reasons given By some of
our contemporaries why people in
civilized countries wear evening
dress when attending the perform
ances at their leading theatres. The
fact is simply that the majority OF
the frequenters OF the leading opera
houses, ETC., in civilized countries
dine ia their homes every day in
evening dress, and not like here in
their working clothes or ia shirt
sleeves. 1t would be most incon.
venient for such people to- change
their clothes in the very few min,
utes between the finishing OF their
dinner and the opening OF the
theatres. 1t is certainly not on ac-
count OF the theatres that tho audi
ence appears dressed" We fully
believe and hope that the people Of
Honolulu will do everything to
honor the opening OF the new opera
house and will don their best clothes
when present at an event which vir-
tually is public ceremony aud as a
homage to the generous gentlemen
who have furnished the islands with

TOPICS OF TIE DAY.

The constant importation Of for
eign school teachers to these islands
is decidedly a very poor policy. At
ter these many years of education in
Hawaii there certainly must DO suf-
fcient material available to fill all
vacancies among the teachers with
men and women belonging here. II
the results Of the educational system
Of the country are different, what
earthly use is it to keep on with the
system and force the taxpayers to
pay vast sum Of money TO foreign
teachers OF whose labor no good re-
suit is visible. We have great deal
too much education in this country
when all circumstances are consider
ed. How many of the thousands of
children who to-day frequent the
Governments schools are fitted to
be labore-s. They cannot all be
lawyers, doctors, mechanics, clerks
or planters. They cannot all be
teachers; even those suitable for
that profession are not given a
chance to earn living as long as a
malihini with little pull in the
"family compact" wants the job.
They are and, will not be, suited for
work as plantation laborers because
they cannot compete in cheap living
with the hordes of Asistic coolies
constantly imported for the sole
benefit OF our absentee sugar bar0us

wrong, the pardon has been received
with indignation, more or less pro-

About 10 o'clock, George Canning, q
stock raiser, who resides at 456 west
Third South street, LETT his home In a
wagon, for the purpose of getting sup
plies to take out 10 his sheep camp. He
drove eRst from his home at fair
gait and when Just about to cross the
the Union Pacific track, he noticed to
his horror that switch engine was
upo u HIN. No sooner had his horses
stepped upon the track than q car
ahead ofthe engine struck one of them,
breaking one OF Its legs and throwing
the entire outfit, driver included, to
one side OF the track, where they re-
mained free from further Injury while
the cars and engine passed en-.
The wounded animal was so MANNED
that 1t had to be shot, while the wagon
received no further damage than the
breaking Of tue tongue. Mr.. Canning
escaped unhurt, ana was perfectly
able to relate his experience, q repeti-

Mr.. Canning says that the wind was
blowing quite briskIy at that point at
the time and as the train did not
whistle, he was onto the track before
he realized his danger. The switch
men who were seated ON the car which
struck The animal shouted at Mr..
Canning but their shouts Were not
heard by him until too late TO avoid
the accident.
