The Board of Equalization has
( h BARD the complaints of a
number Of people this week
respecting their work Of raising
the assessed valuation Of property.
These gentlemen listened patti
emily, and in every case where 1t
could be shown that they h ,d made
an unreasonable raise, or that they
were mistaken in location and
value of property, they willingly
adjusted it. Thus it is demon
strated that they have acted with
impartiality and pure motives,
and their work is almost univer-
sally applauded.

Deafness Cannot be Cured

DEAFNESS cannot be Cured
BY local applications as they cannot reach
the diseased portion of the ear. There is
only one way to cure deafness, and that is
by constitutional remedies. Deafness is
caused by an inflamed condition of the
mucous lining of the Eustaehian Tube.
When this tube is iuhamed YOU have a
rumbling sound or imperfect hearing, and
when it is entirely closed, Deafness is the
result, aud unless the inflammation can be
taken out aud this tube restored to its
normal condition, hearing will be de-
stroyed forever; nine cases out of ten are
caused by catarrh, which is nothing but
an inflamed condition of the mucous sur.
faces.
We will give One Hundred Dollars for
any case of Deafness (caused by catarrh)
that cannot be cured by Halls Catarrh
Cure. Send for circulars, free.

CLIMBS THE HIGHEST PEAK
GERMAN TRAVELLER TO AGCEND
HAWAIIAN RANGES.
His Thrilling Experience in the Yo-
semitic Nalley-IIas Scaled the Alps
and the Highest Points in Mexico.

The Hawaiian hotel is shelteriug "a
man who has scaled the Alps. climbed
the highest peaks of Mexico and trag-
ersed the Sierra Nevada range on
snow shoes In many of his tramps
he has established records and in all
has some thrilling tales to relate He
is X. T. Stoepel, of Germany, a travel
ing companion of Dr. Holf Koch, pro-
fessor of history in the Heidelberg col
lege of Germany.
Professor Koch and Mr. Stoepel have
been travelling together for many
months. While in Mexico the famous
historian spent some time looking in
to the possibilities of German colonial
ton there, and, it is understood, he
will spend a year and a half in Japan
with the same purpose in view. Next
week both gentlemen will go to Ha-
waii to see the volcano. Mr.. Stoepel
will devote all his time exploring the
mountains.
81 know the task will not be diff
cult one" said the German mountain
climber today, "for understand that
the ascension can be made in nearly
any part of the range on the back of
mule or horse. But that makes no
difference. My ambition is to climb
the mountain heights in as many
countries as possible. l have been all
through the Alps and have gone over
the most dangerous paths. While in
Mexico l measured the height of Po-
pocatepelt and found it to be 17,S2S
feet. The peak of Orizaba, in the same
country, was also measured by me and
found to be 1898 feet. DIR. Scobell, of
the United States. measured this peak
in 1892 by the trinomentry method and
gave the height as 1873, just 20 feet
less than my measurement. The gen
eral impression exists among the peo-
pie of the world that Popocatepelt is
higher than Orizaba. This is not so,
as is clearly shown in the measure
ment.
"While in Yosemite valley, Califor-
MIA, I took many long tramps in snow
shoes. From Chiniquapin I walked to
| Glacier Point. I also walked to Single
Point and secured a most glorious
view of the famous Nevada Falls.
While coming down from Single Poirt,
my guide and myself slide 1900 fest
on our snow shoes in 30 seconds. It
was sensation that I would not have
missed for anything and still I would
hesitate long time before trying it
again"
Both Professor Koch and Mr.. Stoc-
pei are exceedingly well pleased with
what they have seen of Honolulu.

COMMERCIAL IMPORTANCE OF
THIS PORT.
Views of Hon Richard j. Sedden on
Hawaiian Affairs-Pleased With Ho-
nolulu-Impressed With Homes.

While Hon. Richard j. Seldom, Co
lonial Treasurer Postmaster General
and Premier of New Zealand, was
being driven about the city on Thurs
day by Attorney General Smith and
Postmaster General Oat, that distin-
guished gentleman said many nice
things regarding the condition in
which he found both public and pri-
vate property and the neatness in
which the city was kept. He was
particularly impressed with the pretty
homes that he espied in all parts of
the town, and frankly admitted that
he had never seen anything to com
pare with the wonderful verdure that
abounds both in and out of Honolulu.
The New Zealand Premier also in
quired into the commercial relations
existing between the islands and other
countries, as well as internal business
conditions, the extent of the sugar
and coffee industries and many otner
things touching on this little country,
from a business point of view. When
he had finished making his observa-
tions of the city and had secured a
considerable amount of information
from the attorney general and post
master general, Mr.. Sedden expressed
a great surprise that Hawaii had made
such remarkable progress within
such comparatively short time.
To Mr.. Oat he spoke of cable mat
ters and gave it as his opinion that Ha-
waii would certainly be in communica-
ton with America before great while
now. He was not convinced whether
the cable would be built from Canada
or the United States 'Of course / am
not in as close touch with cable mat
ters as / would be were my home in
Australia" said New Zealand's triple
Office holder to Mr.. Oat, ''but it strikes
me from my hasty observation of the
commercial Importance, as well as the
geographical situation of these islands
in the ocean, that should a cable be
laid in any portion of the Pacific, it is
bound to touch Hawaii. You people
have two strong points in your favor
which are bound to be considered by
any corporation contemplating the
construction of a cable across the Pa
cific."

TWO DESERTERS ESCAPE FROM
THE CITY JAIL.
Recaptured by Officers After a Merry
Chase Through a Lumber Yard \
Negligent Turnkey to Blame

c. Gordon and G. II. Mills. desertcrs
from the American bark c. d Brvant.
escaped from the city prison shortly
after 10 o'clock this morning by seal
ing the high wall enclosing the open
court. They were captured twenty
minutes later by officers Conley and
Jim Kupihe, after a hot chase through
the lumber piles in Allen g. Robinsons s
yard. and are now in double irons,
awaiting the sailing of their vessel.
The escape of Gordon and Mills
caused the greatest excitement about
the police station. They managed it
very nicely, and it is only to be wond-
cred that more prisoners did not fol-
low their lead and get away. 1t ap-
pears that the two sailors. hearty and
strong young fellows. did not want to
accompany their ship on voyage to
Laysan island and deserted. They
could not, however, escape the vigi-
lence of Harbor Officer Evans, who
rounded them up last night.
The deserters were held at the city
prison to await the sailing of the
Bryant, but were, as is usual in such
cases. given the liberty of the open
court in the jail yard. 1t is surround
ed on two sides by solid walls of mas
onry, twenty feet in height, and no
one thought for minute that they
could be scaled. AS an extra precau-
tion, however, Turnkey Fagarroos has
instructions to remain in the court
while any prisoners are at large there.
But it appears that the turnkey
grew careless. This morning he
stepped out upon the street to have
his picture taken in a group in front
of the building. Gordon and Mills
took advantage of his neglect of duty.
Selling hold of long bench in the
court yard, they leaned it up against
the wall. IL was no trick for a sailor
to 'shinney" up the incline and jump
down on the other side. Mills got over
readily and Gordon had just reached
the top of the wall, when "trusty'
gave the alarm.
In surprisingly short space of time
half dozen officers were in pursuit.
The sailors ran into Allen & Robin
sons lumber yard and hid under the
piles of lumber. The entrances and
exits of the place were guarded by Of
ficers and systematic search of the
place begun. Gordon was dragged out
of an old boiler by the slack of the
trousers by Mounted Patrolman Con-
ley. Excuse me, | did not mean to
run away" he said. Mills was found
by Officer Kupihe under pile of lum-
Der. He did not offer any resistance
The sailors were locked up in a
dungeon at the police station. Thi?
afternoon they will be taken aboard
the Bryant in double irons by HarboI
Officer Evans, and not released until
the vessel is well on her course.

EIESIGHT OF MANY SCHOLARS
IMPAIRED
Serious State of Affairs Now Under In
vestigation-Matter to BE Brought
to the Attention of the Board

serious matter affecting the health
of the school children of Honolulu will
be brought to the attention of the
health department at the next regular
meeting in a special report now being
prepared by DR. Henry w. Howard
city physician.
The eyes of many children attending
Government schools which have ex-
ceedingly poor lighting facilities, have
been discovered by DR.. Howard to be
in very bad condition, and the com
Health and the Board of Education,
will be needed to care for those child
rem whose eyesight has already been
impaired and to remedy the evils in
the poorly lighted schools of the city.
DR.. Howard began his examination
of the eyes of the school children this
week, Although he is city physician,
he has taken up his present task large
ly upon his own responsibility. He has
found some very serious cases among
the children, especially among the
pupils attending the school on Fort
street, annexed to the High school,
and of which Miss NJ. j. Coursen is
principal.
While DR.. Howard refused to make
known the results of his investigation
for the reason that he desired the
Board of Health to be officially noti-
fed of the serious condition first, it
was learned that nearly all of the
pupils attending this school were
more or less affected with optical
troubles. There was one boy whose
eyesight has been so badly damaged
that the doctor has ordered the lad to
drop his studies for a year at least.
porayi,y forbidden to continue their
studies or make any unnecessary use
of their eyes. DR.. Howard has also
been compelled to fit glasses for sew
eral attending this school.
In one of the rooms in the Fort
street school there were only six out
of thirty pupils whose eyesight wa
not affected. In another room, contain
ing fifty-two pupils, only eight We're
free from any eye trouble. Miss Cour-
sens eyes have been most seriously
damaged, she having been compelled
to give up teaching for three or four
months.
A glance through the building
plainly told the physician the cause
for the mischief. The windows are
much larger than the ordinary sized
windows, thus permitting an abund-
ance of light to enter the building.
This light, rejecting on the white
walls, has had most serious effect on
the eyes.
DR.. Howard has heard of complaints
in other Government schools in Homo
lulu. He is continuing a vigorous eX
animation and says that he may look
into the condition of the eyes of all
the school children.
In speaking of the vaccination of the
school children of Honolulu, DR.. How.
ard stated today that he had examined
all that he knew of. In 1894 there wcie
4,305 children in Honolulu. This in
cluded those attending private schools
cinated 1,443 school children.

3 To the Advertiser: II the democratic
party in national convention regularly as
sembled again declares for the free coin
age Of gold and silver at the ratio of 16 to
l. viii you support the nominees of that
convention state Herald.
Answer. one question first: Are you
in favor of reafiirming the Chicago plat
form and renominating the same ticket?
Montgomery Advertiser.
We favor reaffirmng the Chicago plat
form and will support the nominees, who
ever they may be. Will you? Answer,
yes or no.-State Herald.
1t will be observed that it does not yet
say whether 1t favors the denomination
of the Chicago tieket.-Montgomery Adj
vertiser.
That is not the question. The question
is. viii the nominees be supported who
ever they may be? You refuse 30 answer,
yet you would participate in the demo-
cratic primaries and ignore the commit
tees call which says you pledge your
self by 80 doing to support the nominees.
OF course, as the Montgomery Journal
truly says, everybody knows that you
will not support the nominees if the plat
form is for silver 16 to /. But we merely
asked the question, knowing that, in your
anxiety to get back in the party to only
betray it again, you would evade the
question and try TO deceive somebody.
You have not the manhood to say ex-
pressly what you have said by implica-
tion. The morning after the committees
meeting you said that those participating
would be 'absolved from supporting the
nominees If their so-called democratic
principles were not adopted in the plat
form.
Besides, time and time again you have
boldly proclaimed that, according to your
conception, the free coinage of silver 16 to
l is not democratic If you were sincere
why do you not say outright you would
feel ''absolved'' If Is to plank is adopt
ed?
