How Long Cut Flowers Last.

The thin stemmed roses are the most
perishable of all flowers To this class
belong the Bridesmaid (pink), Mermot
(very delicate pink, the Bride (white)
and the Perle yellow. Even with care
they will seldom retain their beauty
over the second day. The CUISINE deli
cate pink and Mrs. Pierpont Morgan
roses are more enduring, and will often
keep three, and even four. days. The
American Beauty will last three and
four days. but after the second day
changes color, the rich red assuming a
purplish hue. Violets will often retain
an appearance Of freshness for four and
five days, but after the second day all
perfume is gone. Hyacinths and fuchsias
look well for three or four days, and
sometimes even longer, while mignonette
and carnations can, with little care,
be kept for almost week Daffodils
have even greater staying powers and
have been known to look fresh ut the
advanced age Of eight and nine days.
Gaslight and furnace heat are poisonous
to flowers, and they should be kept as
much as possible away from the latter.
At night they should be put in a COOL
not freezing-place, with the stems in
water and the tops well covered with
wet tissue paper. Tribune.

WHITE HOUSE LADIES.

The eyes of the United States today
are upon two women, says an Ameri-
can paper, and two very lovable, win
ming women they are-the wives of
Ma or Mckinley and Carrot \. Hobart.
Mrs. Mckinley, in spite of her ill
health, is the keenest of politicians
and the most ardent of protectionists,
her husband not excepted. He is her
hero. Mrs. Mckinley was born in
Canton, and in that quaint Dutch COM
mercial town she was a noted belle.
Her father was the late James SaXton,
a publisher of note. Her invalidism
prevented her active participation in
Washington society events during her
husbands fourteen years in the House
of Representatives.
Mrs. Mckinley devoted a great deal
of her time to making pretty things
for the comfort and amusement of
children.

the carriage of sprightly woman of
80, and the figure, too. Her color is

talks. Her face, firm, well-ch seled
one, is most expressive. Her feelings
sweep over it. 1t may be very sad;
then smile lightens it, and the eyes,
which are very bright, seem to dance
with merriment Her self-possassion
and poise are admirable. She is sin
cere and unaffected to a degree. She,
like Mrs. Mckinley, knows politics.
Her father was politician and a Re-
publican. She devotes much of her
time to charity and church work. They
are Presbyterians. Her son, Garrett
Augustus Hobart, Jr.. and her hus-
band are her two idols.
If the Republicans are successful,
Mrs. Hobart will be the active FIRST

Master of n Single Art.

OF one art the Boer is master-the
management Of oxen in wagons. 1t is
an art which is little understood or is de-
spised by most white men except Dutch
men, but, for all that, it is an art, and
the Beers practice it to perfection and
love it,
/ have seen span of oxen hopelessly
stuck in the middle Of rapid river, the
oxen at right angles to the chain, the
wagon apparently a fixture until the
river should come down stronger and
sweep it away. Two Beers appeared,
and, as they usually will if civilly
asked, gave their help. They walked up
and down the span, and changed the
places of nearly all the oxen. Such a
one was evidently wheeler, an after
OK. Another, from his marks, was ac-
customed to pull ON the other side. An
other must be put farther up or farther
down the span.
The span rearranged, the Beers, with
mighty clap from their whips, whoops,
yuuk, Atland, Blomveldt, Jacoop-so-
norous yells to the leading oxen-with
many baclShanded wrist cut, and then
a flick i'll front, steering the wheelers
with the butts of their whips, guiding
the leaders with tho unerring lash,
started the span, kept it pulling straight,
and in two minutes the wagon was
standing on the other side of the river,
the owners and the oxen equally puz-
zled to know how it got there. Pail

General Booth discovered in India
that unborn babies are sometimes used
as security for debt. When the father of
a family is obliged to borrow money to
defray the expenses Of his daughters
wedding he sometimes pledges her first
born son as collateral. General Booth
doubted the existence Of such custom
until one of his officers in the Madras
Salvation Army informed him that
among his cadets were young men who
had been mortgaged by their GRANDPA
theirs in payment for the festivities at
their mothers weddings.
General Booth found upon investiga-
ton that India is great pawnshop.
The people put in pledge their lands
oxen, jewelry, themselves, their chill
dren and their grandchildren. Their
ideas of finance are crude, and they seem
to think that he is the cleverest man
who finds the largest number of ways
by which to borrow money. New York

Opportunity" THE occasion
makes it. Never in the his
tory of mercantile transactions
in Honolulu have the people
had such a golden opportunity
to select a lamp as today. A
manufacturer who had more
than he knew what to do with,
more than he had space to put
them, wrote us of his troubles.
We had none of our own so
we listened to him. Our stock
of lamps is the result of his
tale of woe and you get the
benefit.
A black lamp that will give
a bright light is not fad, but
a style that will remain until
"New Hawaii" shall become
old. Being sombre in color
they furnish with any decora-
tons you may have in your
room and any color shade that
suits your fancy will look well
on the lamp.
For a dinner table nothing
furnishes the table better than
black banquet lamps. We
have them, not cumbersome,
but of a height that will
beautify rather than detract
from the other features. We
have piano lamps, hall lamps,
boudoir lamps and every other
character of lamp that ever
was made. The prices are so
low that it would injure our
business to put them in this
column.

IMPROVED "ALPHA" DELAvAL
CREAM SEPARATOR.

DR.. Gustav DeLaval, The in
vtntor of the DeLaval Separ-
ator, is one of the most practi
cal inventors of this centur,
and has been fifty termed the
edison Of Dairying.' Within
the last few years the DeLaval
Separator has revclutioned the
thods Of dairying.
1t has alone brought about
the broad developement and
universally demonstrated the
superiority of the new system
over the old methods.
The general elements OF con-
sideration in the use of a
separator is: First; that the
separation should be complete,
which is naturally the primary
object of a machine, and the
second and most important one
is that it accomplishes the
separation in the most practical
and economical manner. This
might be done with an ordinary
bucket if a speed of $500 or
10000 revolutions per minute
could be obtained, with the
requisite machinery, which of
course is impossible.
1t has been solved in the
construction of the DeLaval
Separator, which are "guaran-
teed to be as represented and
to fill all the claims made for
Them, and are sold subject to
the guarantee of the unquali-
fed superiority in every mater
ial respect to all other machines
and systems Comparative
tests in demonstration of such
fact, with and all other separa-
tors and Dreaming systems, are
most earnestly invited and de
sired at all times.

strongest demand comes from the Pa
lama district, where a worthy work
has recently been undertaken under
the auspices of the Central Union
church. The little ones and the old
er persons will find benefit in the at
tention such as park with an occa-
sional concert will afford. Then. just
because the people up Nuuanu valley
are mostly of the rich class is no good
reason why they should not have a
small park in which they can have "A

the base ball people and wheelmen

ground there to have semi-public

pleasure ground, but the ideal place
for a sporting field is in the open land
Just back of Kawaiahao church. Even
now promoters are making an effort

The contract labor system will die
out in due time in Hawaii, but the
United States and those who argue for
that country in these premises need
not take to the bosom so much of
Gathering JUNCTION when the question
is preached There are innumerable
labor systems over there that can be
condemned in the strongest terms
where by comparison the Island meth
DDS would only be criticised and that
not with extreme severity. A class of
labor vastly different from any known
across the water is utilized here and
while it is more difficult to handle
there is rarely any friction. When
each state in the Union averages call
a year or more on troops to put down
dissatisfied workmen it may be doubt
ed reasonably if their system is exact
ly model. For The Star it is free to
remark that the statements of fact
show the United States is a consider
able distance yet from anything like
a correct or successful system. Ha-
waits today is better, but if abolition
of contracts is demanded as a condi-
ton precedent upon Annexation, it
can be done without any trouble to
speak about. In truth there are sew

A public spirited citizen says to The

The American League cannot ex-
pect a great deal of enthusiasm dur

it's inception. In the months of Sep
