Noveltiesin household goods
draw customers to the up-to-
date stores; heir presence on
the shelves is an indication Of
push and energy combined
with enterprise, the foundation
to every successful business

profit in getting out of the old
rut and bringing a few sun
shine novelties into the stores.
One of the woes of the

A few of the roads in these islands
would he credit to any European
country in which the making of thor
ough fares has become a practical and
established science. Hawaii may
safely be said to be in advance of any
number of the States of the American
Union in this regard. But there is al
most limitless field for Improvement,
especially in the all important matter
of maintenance. 1t is remarkable and
absurd that for months in each year,
after enormous sums have been eN-
pended in building, that through a few
small faults or neglect so patent as
to be almost criminal, miles upon
miles of road should be next to impas-

great novel. The distinguished critic
readily come TO the conclusion that
the quality, as would be demanded by
the days standard of the art of com
position, is entirely missing. In clev-
er and interesting analysis of Uncle
Toms Cabin and two other works
that attained equal prominence, pop

gives clearly his idea of quality" It
is in the motif-the hidden target-the
mainspring-the single thought elab-

The pictures presented in the work

fidelity, but the beats within the active
vein of sympathetic movement are
constant and undyng. 1t is the same

A gentleman up from Cascade Locks
yesterday, said he could see no reason
why the work could not be advanced to
such stage by the first of March as to
permit of the passage of boats. The
secretary of the Commercial club has
written to Capt. Gray, of the Astoria
Chamber of Commerce saying that The
Dalles would send committee to meet
the delegation from Astoria any time
agreeable to the latter, and make such in
quiry regarding the completion as would
satisfy them, whether or. not boats will
pass through at the time stated. If this
event happens on March 1st, a month is
not too long time for the making of
preliminary arrangements.

killed at the LOCKS.

Coroner Butts returned this morning
from Cascade Locks, where he went to
hold an inquest over the remains of
William Murray, who was killed yester-
day afternoon by having a portion of
the em hankment, under which he was
working, fall upon him. Murray was
working with two other men in a place
not considered dangerous. When the
bank began to give away the men started
to run and the other two succeeded in
getting away, but Murray was not fast
enough. A jury was summoned this
morning and the following witnesses
called: DR.. G. F. Candiana, W. H. Nc
Kee, M. Keating, J. M. McIsaac. After
hearing the testimony, the jury returned
its verdict as follows:.
We. the jury, empanelled by the coro-
ner to inquireinto the cause of the death
OF William Murray find that said Murray
was about the age of so years, light
complexioned and light mustache,
weight about 140 pounds, height about
five feet elk inches. That he came to
his death while working on embank-
ment at the Cascade Locks, the said en-
bankment sliding upon him and killing
him.
From all reports the accident seems to
be classed as "unavoidable.' The un-
fortunate man is said to have an aunt
living in Albany. His other relatives
are unknown.

IMPRoKE THE NAVY.

In all the discussions upon the alb
sorbing questions of the day, there seem
to be but one conclusion, and that is
that this country should have and main
tain irst-class navy.
The actual possession of sufficient
number of first class fighting war ves-
sells, would give us surer guarantee OF
nations, than any other action or all
other measures combined.
'A few days ago it was announced, %
says the San Francisco Chronicle, ''that
Russia was preparing to making i'm
portant additions to her navy, and we
were told some months ago of contracts
with American manufacturers for large
quantities of armor plate for that coun-
try. There is little or no doubt that in
spite of the temporary opposition which
has developed the German emperor will
secure the appropriations which he asks
Tor the increase of the German navy,
and now comes the news that China has
determined to expend a very large sum
In putting her navy upon genuine war
footing. France is all the time adding
to her naval strength, especially in the
direction of torpedo boats, rapid fire
guns and matters of that kind, while
Great Britain is spending nearly $780,
OOO, 900 year in strengthening and i'm
proving her navy.
"The general idea, and the one which
most British statesmen and politicians
seek to cultivate, possibly to placate the
taxpayer, is that the navy is needed for
defensive purposes chiefly, but the
Right Hon. G. Shaw Lefevre, in an ar
ticle published in 1891. put different
aspect on the enormous increase in the
naval strength of Great Britain. He
pointed out that while France main.
tains it's navy in the proportion of two
thirds that of England, it can, by alli-
ance with some one or more:other naval
powers, be in a position not far short
that of England, and he adds, very sig
nificantly, whatever confidence we
Englishmen may have in the sense of
Justice and moderation of our govern
ment in any difficulties with France, we
may be prepared to admit that our Ian
guage and attitude on many questions
would be different and less conciliatory
if the navy of France were reduced to a
point where it would give us no concern
whatever
There is in these remarks a yeiled
threat which the United States cannot
afford to disregard. It is true that the
final outcome of war between England
and the United States could hardly be
in doubt, but prevention is better than
cure, and when we see every great ma
tion of the world improving its navy,
and understand that there is deter
mination to check the bully of the seas
on his own ground, it is not well for us
to be wiser than everybody else. Had
we today first-class navy even that OBJ.
stinate and truculent leader, Salisbury,
would change his tone materially on the
Venezuelan question and would receive
new and sudden light on the Monroe
doctrine and the principle of interna-
tional arbitration"
