the people had such a
a golden opportunity to Sc
lect "a lamp as today. A

of his troubles. We had

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 a fad,
but a style that will remain
until "New Hawaii" shall
become old. Being sombre
in color they furnish with
any decorations you may
have in your room and any
color shade that suits your

The automatic distributor should
be placed in every house in Homo

on scientific principles, and ap-
peafs to everyone Of common sense.
The idea Is this: The distributor
drops two drops minute, day and
night. Foul doors are killed, yet
no disagreeable smell Of carbolic

it's place. You don't know that a

mittee for Mapping Out Work.
The preliminary meeting of the Edu-
cational Committee of the Y. NJ. c. A.
was held in the association hall last
night with nearly all the members
present.
1t was proposed that the classes be-
gin in September, running to Decem-
Der 18th, for the first term and that
the second term stare January 18th
and end April 3Oth; also that they be
made up of the following:
1. Elementary reading, writing, or
biography, arithmetic and grammar.
2. Bookkeeping.
8. Shorthand elementary and adj
vanced).
4. Type-writing.
3. Mechanical drawing.
6. Music.
7. Orchestra.
8. Glass in Hawaiian.
This last is a new feature and the
Y NJ. c. A. will make every effort to-
ward the success of the venture.
It was suggested and favorably com
mented. upon, that a course OF lectures
be one of the features of the coming
season. and that these lectures deal
with such subjects as history, physi-
o1oox- aud hygiene
The Y. NJ. c. A. has determined to
make the classes of this year the most
successful that has ever been started

PUNAHoU GETS a PRIZE.
!. McCandles Donates Fishers
Painting to the College.


At the close of the art sale yesterday
James McCandIess and Hugo Fisher.
Jr., met and considered an offer made
by the former for the large oil paint
ing MERGED River" by Hugo a. Fisher.
Mr.. McCandless has a great aloha for
Punahao, though he was not educated
there, and when it was suggested that
the art gallery in Bishop Hall was the
proper place for the painting he at once
brought his public spiritedness into
action and made an offer. AS the paint
ing was for the college. the artist waiv
ed prices and the picture was sold to
Mr.. McCandless at a figure satisfactory
to ALL
The subject, Yosemite Valley, is one
that has been painted from many
points Bierstadt achieved fame by
putting upon canvas a scene from a
point in the great valley; Moran added
to his reputation by painting from an
other. Scarcely a nook or corner OF
Yosemite has been missed by artists
who sought to make or add TO their
regulations as painters. Mr.. Fisher has
painted from a half dozen different
| places, but this, in his opinion, is his
best work in the valley.
In this painting Oahu College gets q
prize, through the munif1cence of Mr.
McCandless, of which it may we'll fee
proud. The donor regards the institu
ton as one deserving of encouragement
by the citizens of Honolulu. His actor
is one which will no doubt be emulateC
by others who desire to see the new
gallery full of works by the best artists

Chief Justice Judd has rendered an
opinion in Edna c.. Trousseau VS..
Bruce Cartwright and Hugh Mcintyre,
executors of the will of Geo. P. Trous
seau, deceased. E. P. Dole, Deputy
Attorney General, sat in place of JUS
tice Whiting, disqualified, renders a
concurring opinion, while Justice
F'rear dissents.
The majority opinion sets forth the
following principles of law:
THE condition in a contract to pay
money when my circumstances allow
and as soon as they allow, is fulfilled
by evidence that the promissor was in
receipt of money over and above his
reasonable expenses with which he
could pay.
"The fact that the executors of such
promissor had not assets to pay in full
the sum contracted for by their de-
cedent, does not show that the condi-
ton of ability to pay in the testator's
lifetime was not fulfilled.
ga contract contemplated money to
be paid in instruments, conditioned
upon ability to pay. Evidence Of abil-
ity to pay part of the sum contracted
to be paid is a fulfillment of the con-
dition."
Judge Magoon gave the judgment
from which the appeal was taken, dis
allowing the principal sum sued for,
but ordering the annual payments
stimulated tn he in lien of interest
Justice Frear, in nOnconcurring,
says "The logical conclusion under
these circumstances would be, not TO
make another error by allowing the
principal sum, but to correct the first
error by disallowing the interest. This
cannot. however, be done on this bill
of exceptions, as the plaintiff did not
except to the allowance of interest.
