Results of Honesty.

"My watch is giving me the ut
most satisfaction; actually be-
lieve it does not vary a second
; during the week."
Pleasant remarks these. Just
the kind of balm a matchmaker
needs occasionally to keep up
his spirits. For you know
working all day on a high
stool, a glass firmly screwed
into one eye, looking at objects
so minute it takes a microscope
to distinguish them, is not the
| pleasantest occupation which
could fall to the lot of man.
So it's no wonder a fellow
gets all out of sorts OCCASION
ally, and then it's the time a
few remarks like the above
does what all the patent medi-
cine in the world could not ac-
complish, cheers up, makes
things look brighter, the next
job goes all the smoother.
Speaking ofthe above watch:
1t was an old one. The wearer
had used it steadily for forty
years. 1t had run enough; had
revolved it's wheels so long and
steadily, that at last it was
tired out. The pivots were so
worn, the wheels just wobbled
and wobbled, then stopped al
together. What was to be
done? Throw it away? Get a
new one. Yes, but the wearer
valued it for it's associations, it
was as dear to him as his best
friend;so nothing would do but
build it all over as it were, re-
new the parts, put some go
into it. That we accomplished
it to the entire satisfaction of
the owner, his remarks above
would surely leave no room for
doubt. And we can do the
same with yours, sometimes
they 60 a little too far, and the
cost for reconstruction is too
much, but generally no work
is too intricate for us. 1t is
that which we brag about,
complicated work is our strong
hold. Isn't it reasonable now
to suppose that we are better
able to do your less intricate
work! Wouldn't it be safer to
give us the custody of your
watch altogether, no matter
what the trouble, and have a
feeling of certainty as to it's
treatment?

THE :DyExTsSEH ROAsTs.
Heads its Column with ~ Success
fail Performance" and then
Burns Everybody.

1t has been the custom for sew
eral years for local talent to give
an Amateur Minstrel performance
occasionally. The last one was
presented Saturday evening at the
drill shed. Allowances must
always be made for amateur talent.
The writer knows from experience
that it is no easy matter to stand
on stage before several hundred
people and sing song or bring
the point of a joke out clearly.
The boys who worked hard to
give the Honolulu public an even
ing's entertainment did not de-
serve the severe criticism that this
mornings Advertiser contained.
The show as whole was sue
cess not only financially but
artistically, the first part and olio
being especially good. The drill
shed is large building and PEG.
pie must remember the performers
were laboring under many disad-
vantages. A sounding board is
one of the advantages the boys
did not possess. This makes a
big difference, as the performers
have to speak and sing in much
louder tone.
Mr.. A. u. Murphy who has
staged the last five shows given
in Honolulu says that this was
the best of the lot. The perform
ance will be repeated Saturday
night with change of songs, gags,
etc, and will undoubtedly draw
even larger house than attended
Saturday evening.

PANSY STOVES are the

We don't propose to be under

All we ask of those wanting
stoves is that they come and
look at the Pansy. This stove
will sell itself without any
talking on our part.
We have the PanSy in three
numbers, 6, 7 and 8. 1t has
five holes on top, burns wood

said she had been using one
of our Pansy stoves for the
last four years, but her family
had got SO large that she want

For a stove suitable for a

PERFECT BEAUTY,

That is to say-clear complexion

man beautiful, depends almost en-

us in selecting proper nourishment
is the experience of others, and when

FRENCH TAXATION SCHEME.
The Principle of the Governments
PROPOSAL InLOrsed.

The French chamber OF deputies by
vote of 2s6 to 30. last night Endorsed the
principle of the governments proposal of
an income tax, but referred the details
of the scheme to committee. The income
tax proposal has been intended as the
central feature of the plan of the present
government, and it has been believed ex-
tremely doubtful whether its proposal
could pass the legislature. The action last
night is In the nature of a compromise
indorsing the principle of an income tax
but throwing aside the details of the gov
eminent scheme
According to this scheme, incomes of less
than $3.50 francs $500 were to be exempt
and $500 francs was to be deducted from
the assessment of all taxable incomes
Up to 5000 francs the rate OF the tax was
fixed at one per cent.
Between 5000 francs and 10000 francs
at two per cent; between 10000 francs and
10000 francs, at three per cent; between
10000 and 10000 francs, at four per cent,
and above $4,000 francs. at five per cent.
These progressive rates for the tax were
to apply only to the excess of income over
the sum coming under the next lower rate;
that Is to say, a millionaire would have
his income divided into five heads each
taxed at 4 different rate.
The abolition of the present house tax,
by which it was calculated that 6, 100000
persons would escape direct taxation. was
also involved in the scheme, while it was
estimated that the new would apply to
100000 people. two-thirtls of whom would
pay less than they have been paying under
the house tax.

Asks to He AbsOlvcd.

A bill in equity has been filed by Brainard
H. Warner against the Philadelphia Savings
Fund Society, w. II. jerks and others, to
restrain certain proceedings for the collec-
ton Of interest guaranteed by him. In Au-
gust, 1892, Mr.. Warner states, VIM. E.
Prall wished to borrow s45,00O from the
Philadelphia society and 5000 from Mr..
jerks, representing that IL Mr.. Warner
would guarantee the payment of the in
terest he would have 10 difficulty in secur-
ing the loans on lot L. square 81, on part of
which stands the Hotel Arno. Mr. Warner
also says that MIR. Prall represented that
there was perfect title in him, whereupon
he became responsible for the interest. But
Mr.. Prall misrepresented the matter, says
Mr.. Warner, and subsequently, he charges,
the property became the subject of litiga-
ton between the trustees and others. Mr..
Warner asks that those proceedings for the
sale of the property be pushed to close,
and that a threatened suit against him be
restrained. He also prays to be absolved
from responsibility for the interest on the
ground that the property is amply sufficient.
Attorneys E. HI. Thomas and Henry E.
Davis represent Mr.. Warner.

LIVER CL0GGING.
WhenYour Stomach Clogs Your
Liver See to Your Digestion.

Not person in a thousand knows that the
csnse of biliousncss is the co-Sng Of the liver by
the pCisons Of Indigestion Nor that the only
proper for it IS tonic to aid the stomach.
But modern medicine declares the truth of 1t.
And the Shakers have proved it by the wonderful
success of their Shaker Digestive Cordial.
One Of the most important of the liver is to
arrest AMI destroy all poiscns which try to find
their way into the blood. When It's clOgged, 1t
can't do this.
JEdigcsted food ferments and putrefies in the
stomach, and the pOisons of putrefaction clog and
parafyze the Liver, after which they find their
way into ihc blood.
Here is the true explanation of all the distress
inS disorders ard complications caused by Edi:ses-
ton.
Shaker Digestive Cordial is the only tonic COR
dial which aids the stomach In a natural way to
digest its fo0d- by this isans, 1t indiges-
ton. restores the liver, and frees the body from
poison and disease.
Headache. dizziness neuralgia. mental depression,
weakness, lad taste, fever, fituence. constipation,
loss of appetite. anaemia, rheumatism, and many
other disorders are relieved and cured by Shaker
Digestive Cordial.

WANTED IN FREDERICK.
Alton Miller, Charged With Being a
Defaulter, Arrested.


Last evening about $50 o'clock tele-
gram was received at police headquarters
asking for the arrest of Alton Gregg Miller,
an alleged defaulting employe of the Cen
trail National Bank of Frederick, and thirty
minutes after the dispatch was put on the
wire in the Maryland town the alleged de-
faulter was in custody. The dispatch was
signed by States Attorney w. H. Kinks,
and gave the information that Writs had
been issued for Miller on charges Of en-
bezzling two amounts Of money-$5OO and
$1,OOO-on the 18th of December.
Detectives Horne, Helan and Weldon
were at headquarters when the dispatch
was received, and they located Miller at
the Hotel Johnson, where he had regis
tered his own name and had made no ef-
fort to conceal his identity. He was
soundly sleeping in room 40 when the Off
GERS called on him and notified him that he
was under arrest.
Il won't go till morning." said the man,
who seemed to be stupefied, as if he had
been on protracted spree or had been IN
der the influence Of some drug.
But the officers informed him that he
would have to go with them, and so he put
on his clothes very reluctantly and went
with them to headquarters.
States Attorney Kinks said in his dis
patch that Miller dressed well. but his
clothing showed signs Of rough wear, and
he did not present the gentlemanIy ap-
pearance indicated. To the officers the
prisoner said he knew what he was wanted
for. and said he was foolish for not having
returned to Frederick yesterday. He has
been in Baltimore and this city several
times since he left Frederick and has had
employment in Baltimore.
Miller Is about thirty years old, and when
arrested he had no money on him. He is a
good-looking man, but, as already stated,
his condition is such that he does not ap-
pear natural. He expressed a willingness
to return to Frederick, and the authorities
there were requested to come for him as
soon as possible.

THE M'KiNLEY COON
Efforts to Be Put Forth te Check Its
Course. e-t.. .s'r.-,, .,f
The Pettisrew Incident in Dakota
and Its Significance In the ,o.
Present Situation.

The leaders of the ant:-McKinley forces
are beginning to show signs of real activ-
ity. Though they speak lightly of the Nc
kinley boom, and profess to feel no I'M
easiness. it IS evident that they are Sc
riously concerned lest the impetus which
that boom has got should carry it far be-
yond the point where they have counted on
ITS coming tc a stand. The manner in
which Senator Pett:grew, according to the
press dispatches, was compelled to declare
for Mckinley and sound money before the
South Dakota convention is regarded as an
instructive example of the strength of Nc
Kinleyism in til, west. Though the num-
Der of delegates involved in that conven-
ton is not great, it is regarded as s.gnifl-
cant that the Mckinley forces should have
been able to overthrow both the silver
forces and the combined strength of the
other candidates. The question was pre-
sented with tolerable clearness whether
high protection or free silver should be
adopted as the cure of the present depres-
sion. The silver sentiment in South Da-
kota is regarded as strong. That state
las been counted as one that m ght refuse
to support the republican nominee on
gold platform Yet from the action of the
convention it appears that the protection
sentiment is strong enough even to over
come this. and that Mckinley is accepted
as the embodiment of the idea.
Tariff and Silver.
This suggests the possibility that In all
those states where there Is a pretty evenly
balanced fight between the silver and the
aEti-silver forces high protection will have
to be adopted by the anti-silver men. as
opposed to the cry for silver, and this will
naturally tend to put Mckinley to the front.
The declaration of the extreme silver men
that there shall be no tariff legislation with
out free silver helps to join the issue.
The Mckinley Room.
The policy of the anti-McKinley forces has
been to let the boom Of the Ohio man have
its run. 1t has a little overrun the time
allowance, however, and ways and means
to check it are being carefully considered.
There is a practical interchange of con-
fidences between the friends of the other
candidates and a general cooperation is
aimed at. The leading spirits in the anti
Mckinley forces are experienced politicians
and are not disposed to regard the tide that
has been running for the Ohio candidate as
dangerous as it seems to the Impractical
mind. They profess confidence that they
can prevent Mckinley's nominat ton, but
they see some danger of the strength of the
Ohio man being overestimated in doubtful
sections, thus causing some delegates to
try to join the procession in order to be on
what they may think to be the winning side
The secret of the disposition to have an
adjournment of Congress not later than the
18th of May is that the friends of Reed and
Allison are anxious to get into the field
to combat the Mckinley forces.
