BY the Albert which arriv-
ed a few days ago we re-
ceived I28 Quincy Cleanable
RetrlgeratorS, ranging in size
from the small household ice
box to that used in a grocery
store. 1t was a large in
volce--not consigned, but
bought outright. These re-
frigerators and ice boxes
have nine points of eXcell-
enCe, to wit:
Cleanliness, free circula-
ton; economy in the use of
ice; condensation and dry
air; low average temperature;
freedom from condensation
on the inner walls: freedom
from damage by the use of
ice picks; proper location of
drip pipe and long life.
lheSe points are found only
in the Quincy cleanable.
Now for the reason for the
large purchase. There are
1913 persons in Honolulu
who need refrigerators,
many of them have old ones.
We propose leasing these
refrigerators on the follow
ing term: The selling prices
of the article is divided by
six: when the refrigerator
IS delivered one-SiXth of the
price is paid in cash and
monthly thereafter in equal
payments until the entire
amount is paid. If before
the expiration of the six
months, the lessee wishes
to pay off the balance he will
be entitled to a discount OF
five per cent. on the amount
unpaid. If a customer wants
to buy outright for cash, he
gets five per cent. discount
on the entire amount.
The Quincy Cleanable can
be had only Of us.

STARS TWINKLE.
A Tale OF Woe Told the First Regi-
ment Team.
w. II. Rabbit of williams and Richard
Bliss of San Francisco With
the Maroon Jerseys.

= wonder what kind of sensations
viii be experienced by the First Regi-
ment team today" asked a baseball
man yesterday, when they read the
news OF what the their friends the
Stars have done? l wonder if they will
smile or l wonder if they will groan
I really don't think they will do the
former"
The baseball man referred to some
peculiar goings-On that have taken
place since the arrival of the MonOwai.
That steamer brought among her
passengers Mr.. w. H. Rabbit, gradu-
ate OF Williams college in the class OF
'95. He is an all-round athlete and
an enthusiast on the subject of athle-
tics which he will probably do great
deal for at Punahou to which college
he comes as a professor in the place OF
Mr. Beckwith, recently resigned. His
fort is baseball and he has pitched on
class and college teams at Williams.
Another passenger was Richard
Bliss OF San Francisco who played
first base for the Olympics in 1898
1894 and 1895, and who joined the I'm
perials as their captain in 1896, which
position he still retains. He is a hard
hitter and a good base runner, added
to which accomplishments, he bears
the distinction of being able to pitch
catch or play any other position in q
baseball nine Bliss will return to San
Francisco on the bark Albert in about
three weeks.
Both OF these men were out on the
baseball grounds yesterday and Bliss
did some Dr9ctiPjn0 with the Stars
The fuse has been lighted and now
the bomb will be eXploded-both mer
will play with the Star baseball team
There will be several changes in the
Star team. On account of the injury
sustained in last Saturdays game
Pryce will probably be retired.

What's Your Number i?

The work for Systematically number
ing the streets is progressing rapidly.
After it is finished one can tell his
friends Call on me at such and such
a number and so street. or order their
groceries or newspaper delivered at
No. - street -. 1t will undoubtedly
prove a great benefit TO Honolulu. Mr..
Q. H. Berry, the manager of the COM
pany that is doing the good work is
now prepared to furnish house-owners
with metal or painted ornamental num-
bers of any kind or size, also door
plates at reasonable prices. The COM
pany employ men to put these up and
have on hand large variety of differ
ent styles of numbers and doOr-plates.
The city of Honolulu is now past its
infantiIe stage and as the metropolis
of the islands, should adopt metropo-
Titan ideas, and is doing so. We COM
mend the work the company is do
ing in the numbering line and solicit
for htem the patronage of the COM
munitV.

B BOYS BENEFIT.
Elsie Adair Company and Local
Talent at Drill Shed.

There is no one in this city who can
afford to miss the benefit to Company
b by the Elsie Adair Company at the
drill shed tonight. 1t viii De a series
70 hits all the way through and the hits
will be hard too.
In the first place no one can afford
to miss the enhancing serpentine dance
of Elsie Adair who, with sweeping gar
ments enhanced in beauty by the col
ored lights, moves with the delightful
grace of one who knows her power to
bewitch. Then again Mr.. Emmett with
his funny little figures must certainly
prove a great attraction.
The addition of local talent to this
evenings entertainment was a good
move and no one will be disappointed
if they will just go to the drill shed
tonight.

Proposition TO Form Two Teams In
der the IL. A. a. c.
Twenty-six Players are Ferreted out
Emil Berger to Intercede for
the Enthusiasts.

The pigskin has been started on its
path again and now the football en-
thusiasts are eager for the fray. The
cooler weather has instilIed in them
an athletic spirit that weighs heavily
on their minds and muscles and they
must needs give vent TO their pent-up
fervor in some way or other.
Following closely on the meeting OF
Tuesday night was another of the foot
ball enthusiasts in Y. VI. c. a. hall last
night. There were about forty pres
ent.
The feeling" committee appointed
at the first meeting reported that its
work since that time had been the
searching out of football players of
which twenty-six in all had been locat-
ed Although all of these had not
given their consent to play, still each
and every one was enthusiastic over
the proposition of forming football
teams
Emil Berger, secretary Of the H. \.
a. c., was present and promised the
boys that he in person would present
their proposition to the athletic club.
The proposition in substance is that
two teams be formed from a mixture
of club men and outsiders, and that
the two be under the H. 4. \. al
though separate and apart, one from
the other He had already spoken to
IL Ill, l. hove Il
them perfectly willing to accept the
proposition.
The Punahou graduates present
stated to the meeting that they would
be willing to come into the teams, pro-
vided Punahou did not form a team OF
her own. In event of that happening
they would not feel like joining any
other team.
The whole aim of the football men is
to get up two teams, the First Regi-
ments forming the third, so that in
case the Punahou men enter the field
the H. A. G. c.. will put forth but one
team.
The H. a. A. c. will hold a meeting
Monday night, at which time Emil
Berger will present the proposition OF
the football enthusiasts to the Board Of
Directors.
1t is almost foregone conclusion
that H A A G. will act favorably on
the proposition of the footballists, in
case of which all further arrangements
will be left with them.
The two teams will meet on We'd
nesday or Thursday night Of next week
to choose captains.
A new committee consisting of Emil
Berger, David Unauna and D. Dayton,
was appointed to work the football
matter up and the meeting adjourned.

B TO SHOOT D.
Outcome of Challenge Sent to
Whole Regiment by Latter.

WlOlS Regiment Dy Latter
Since the Inauguration of match
shoots in Honolulu and the increased
number OF these gradually leading up
to a higher and higher standard, the
various military companies have been
beating about for supremacy.
Company D waved the red flag the
other day and challenged any company
in the whole First Regiment to a ten
man shoot Then the brave lads rest
ed on their guns and smiled more and
more as day by day went by without an
answer to the challenge.
Yesterday morning the nature of the
smile was very much lessened in
breadth when Company B walked to
the front and sent in a counter-chal-
lenge to Company D to shoot on Sat
urday, August 20, this day. There was
naught TO do but accept, and this after
noon the two teams will come together
at the Makiki range.
Both were out for practice yesterday
afternoon and the Company men
made 416.
But the peculiar part to this tale
remains 10 be told. Company G was
playing the same game of bluff that
Company 3 adopted after the chal-
lenge II was their intention to hold
off until last night and then send in a
counter-challeng to Company D to
shoot today. This would not have even
given their opponents the benefit OF
yesterday afternoons practice. How
ever, Company G is not saying word
now, even though they did practice
every dav after the challenge.
It is just barely possible that Com
pany D viii be favored with other
challenges when tOday's nightmare has
passed OF.

OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES

One of the most important elements
in education is character, and the eff
fort to obtain an education which in
wolves a struggle is an important ele-
ment in the education itself. If one
could take an account of what the most
successful men and women have done
by way of self-help. it would be found
that their power to control circum-
stances was largely due to the personal
effort which they made in securing an
education.-Boston Herald.

Is Tolstoi to he Banished2

Berlin and Vienna newspapers say that
the Russian government proposes to Danish
Tolstoi within the next few months. The
minister of the interior is said to have been
charged with the duty of collecting eyi-
.dence against the famous novelist and to
have already enough material to condemn
him from the Russian point of view.
The special ways in which Tolstoi is sup
posed to "menace the state and array class
against class, are by advocating freedom of
religious sects from government restric-
tions and liberty of conscience, and by de-
nouncing the paternalism or despotism and
militarism of the Russian system. The
czar is said to have been influenced most
strongly against Tolstoi by his article on
Persecution of Christians In Russia In
1885, which was published In the London
Times nearly a year ago, and has been cir
nulated in the form of German pamphlet
throughout central Europe and some parts
of Russia. The holy synod was stirred to
deep wrath by Tolstoi's biting criticisms
of its religious intolerance, and the chief
proeurator at once presented to the ,czar
strong case against the -reformer.

SEEKING A TARIFF.
Thc Lumber Dealers win Try to Keep
Canadian Product Out.

Il
Cincinnati, Dec. 16-At the ma
tional convention Of lumber dealers a
number of speeches were made IA
voring a tariff on lumber Of 81 per
thousand.
A. G. Foster of Tacoma spoke at
length on the Canadian lumber being
shipped in British ships to American
ports at So per thousand, while Amer
Jeans are compelled to pay from $3.50
to 81 per thousand. The Canadian
government takes back the land after
the timber is taken off it, and the lum-
ber dealers have no taxes to pay there.
They also have cheap labor and a
tariff of So per thousand would not
affect them in the market on the Pa
cific coast.
Mr.. Werner of st. Louis gave elab-
crate statistics of the tariff duties of
France and Germany, and favored an
American tariff of SO to 81 per thou
sand.
The committee on permanent Or
ganiZation named committee on
ways and means to represent the lum-
ber men before congress at Washing
ton, and to have general charge Of
the interests of the organization.
The president was authorized to call
