stopped In the Tenth Round.
The fight between Dick Burge and
Eddie Connolly for 5000, which took
place at the Olympic Ciuo. Birming ham,
Eng, last night, and was decided a draw
in the 10Th round, caused unusual excite
nent, extra police being necessary to
preserve order.
Dick Burre was the favorite, since he
weighed 143 POUNDS, while Connolly
weighei only l3S pounds. Connolly was
the irst to reach the ringside, and he
was accorded a feeble reception.
Burge was accorded an ovation. This
caused the manager of the club TO step
To The frort and announce that any ex-
Irsslons indicative OF favoritism would
se followed by the expulsion OF persons
expressing them.
The first two rounds were decidedly In
Buree's favor. Then the excitement be-
came Intense, for IL vas seen that a stub
born tsnt was intended. In the tbira

rebuked by the re.e-ec.
The fourth round favored Connolly who
landed heavily on his opponents face,
causing Barge to bleed profuseIy. After
several lliuches Connolly displayed con-
siderabls agility. There was little change |
In the bfth round, Connolly's tsctics,
however, seeming 10 produce some effect |
upon his opponents wind.
In tho sixth round Burge forced the
igniing and rushed Connolly to the
ropes. TIE latter, fainting, slipped and
nearly fell down. and Burge landed with
terrific force on his opponents face.
For moment the fight seemed nearly
over, hut Connolly gimely recovered and
The round ended with terrible Iunish-
ment for botn.
The sev'nth round proved to he a reps-
II ion of ibis savage fighting. Excitement
was at fever heat, many Of the mem bsrs

almost winded.
Both responded gsmely when time was
called at the beginning of the tenth
round. The Sighting was OF the most
terrific order. The referec entered the
ring during this round and signaled for
silence. He then said: "we must stop
this fignling.'
Instantly psndemonium reigned
throughout the club room. Three hun

SHERMAN VS.. TRUSTS.

Secretary of State Sherman is a
determined opponent of trusts, and
he regards the campaign against
them as the most important ques-
ton of the day. The passing of
the reciprocity article in the tariff
bill was an immense blow to the
Sugar Trust, and through that to
all trust combinations. The reten-
ton of that clause in the bill is veri-
table triumph to the antitrust men,
and may result in further action
against trusts.
1.-The present trust law" says
Sherman, is not strong enough"
He was the author of it, but the
Judiciary committee of the Senate
changed it so that it came out in
very limp condition indeed. AS it
stands now, the Supreme Court has
sustained the law and has, at the
same time, pointed out its defects.
There seems every likelihood OF the
battle of the trusts being fought in
December and the early part of next
wear. Should the annexation treaty
not pass at the extra session, it will
form pivot for trust attack at the
regular session, and there will be a
war of giants around it as fierce as
there was between the Greeks and
the Trojans for the body of Patroc-
lus.
But if the trusts have been defeat
ed now, much more will they be
defeated then. According to the
United States papers, money is to
be used without stint, but the SEN
ate is not in a temper to stand the
scandal of former trust campaign.
The power of money can go so far
and its force seem irresistible, but
there comes a time when it loses its
force, and then it crumbles away
like stucco before solid granite.
Not all Jugurthas wealth lavishly
poured out upon a venal Senate,
could save him from an adverse vote
and not all the trusts wealth pour
ed before Senate that is not venal
but composed, in majority, of men
of true patriotic mind and keen
craftsmanship, will make it depart
a hairs breadth from the course
which they have marked out.

Our island boys, when they go
abroad show none of the tropical de-
generacy with which the offspring
of jewellers in the tropics are usual
credited. 1t is claimed that the
white who dwells between Cancer
and Capricorn speedily loses his
vigor and becomes both mentally
and physically Emphatic. When
ever island boys and girls enter the
colleges of the United States and
come in contact with the youth
raised in the more temperate cline
and the bracing atmosphere, it is
found that they by no means lag
behind. And not only is this true
of the descendant of foreign parents
but the part-Hawaiian shows up
equally we'll. The success of Ar
thur Wilder at the Yale law school
is a case in point and the islands
should be proud that one of their
sons has won honor for the place OF
his birth and his bringing up.

WHAT is TWO-THIRDS.

There is some controversy among
people here, as to what twothirds
majority means. Does it mean a
two-thirds majority of all Senators
elected, or does it mean two-thirds
of the Senators present at the time
the question is before that body.
AS upon all interesting questions
there is full representation of Sen
ators, the number voting being at
full strength, the required majority
is practically two-thirds of the cleo
ted members. Paragraph two,
Section two, of the Constitution OF
the United States reads:
''He (the President) shall have pow
er, by and with the advice and con-
sent of the Senate, to make treaties,
provided two thirds of the Senator's
present concur"
So that it is not two thirds Of all
Senators elected that have to con-
cur, but two-t thirds Of those who
are "present" when the question
comes up for discussion. AS has
been already pointed out, there is a
haziness upon the point here, and
not only here, but also many papers
published in the United States.
To illustrate, when the Senate is
assembled in full, as there are nine
ty members, it takes sixty to give
the necessary majority, but suppose
that through sickness or some other
cause three Senators were unable to
be present when a vote of this kind
was taken, a two-thirds majority
would not consist of sixty, but Of fiji
ty-eight. If nine Senators were abb
sent the two thirds would mean fifty
four, and so Oh as long as there was
quorum present. But as fact
upon all important occasions, the
full quota of Senators is present.

The National Tribune, the organ
of the G. A. R., has warmly es-
poused the cause of annexation.
The issue of June "a contains a
long historical article upon Hawaii
and the paper bristles with para
graphs in favor of annexation. AS
the National Tribune goes into the
home of every veteran in the United
States its sphere of influence is very
much larger than that of the ordin-
airy daily. The annexation cause
is acquiring good and powerful
friends as time goes on.

try is forever precluded from absorb
ing the second because of the treaty
made by the first. The position
will not hold water, but the brazen-
ness Of the attempt at making such
a contention principle of Internal
ional law seems almost laughable.
However, it was most seriously en-
tertained by the United States Cow
eminent and the house of cards fell
before an avalanche of precedent
rather than a breath. Such con
tention as the Japanese set up would
put stop to all changes in geo
graphical lines, and the worlds
progress could not allow that.

FRUIT JARS.
JULY 10, 1897.

Almost without exception
tourists after remaining on the
islands for any length of time
become very much attached to
native fruits, such as Pohas,
Guavas, Pines, Mangos, Or
anges, Momonas and Straw
berries, especially when they
are preserved in such shape
that they may be left any
length of time without spoil
ing.
Our Theoretically Sealed
Glass Jars are absolutely in
dispensible for the proper pre-
servation of these delicious
fruits, and are extremely sim
pie, yet sound in construction,
convenient in size and being
transparent show the fruit off
to good advantage.
We carry a large line of
thesejars as well as other glass
ware that tends to brighten up
a table tastefully.
CARVERS.
If you possess one of our
Famous Carvers you cannot
fail to serve a roast or bird
properly and not make it ap-
pear that a cyclone had done
the work.
These carvers are construct
ed Of the finest steel and ofthe
best temper, so necessary for
utensils of this nature.
Various styles, as well as
ma erials, are furnished in the
handles and you can suit your

quality. A close examination
find them all that they should
be.
