PRINCES AND PRINCESSES KEPT
ON HAND.
Robert w. Wilcox Proposes a Solution
of the Hawaiian Difficulty by Es-
tablishing a New Monarchy.

Princesses grow thick in Hawaii, ac-
cording to the Washington Bee. If
the United States wants to settle the
Hawaiian question, there is a princely
family all ready to hand. \ cores
pondent from the Hawaiian Islands
discusses the situation here in the
event of annexation not taking place,
and says: IF the United States de-
sire that Hawaii shall still be inde-
pendent under a friendly protectorate
then we must have monarchy, the on
ly safeguard of this small country
from the mercy of crusty politicians,
etc. There are many respectable
chiefs and chieftainesses, and who are
much better qualified than Liliuaka1a-
nj in every respect. There is one
branch of the Kamehameha stock liv-
ing whom I will mention first with
the Others:
(Keova descendants, nearest to the
Kamehameha.)
First. High Chieftess Elizabeth X.
Kekaaniau.
Second. Princess Daisy Napulahao-
kalani.
Third. Princess Eva Kuwailanima-
mao.
Fourth. Prince Roberto Kalaniku-
apaikaaninui Keova.
Fifth Princess Virginia Kaihika-
pumahana.
Let the United States offer her good
offices to settle the Hawaiian difficulty
and select one of the chiefs or chief
tesses I have mentioned as a monarch
that reigns, then we never will have
any more trouble here. And in case
when the United States desires to an
mex the Islands she can do so.''
This would settle matters peaceful
ly according to the writer. and annex
alton might come as soon as the cho-
sen Prince or Princess had feathered
the family nest. \ careful hunt among
blue books and records failed to show
who the Princes and Princesses were.
but at last a reporter ran them to
earth. The chiefess is Mrs. Pratt, the
Princesses Daisy and Eva are the Miss

ANOTHER FAILURE.

Maui, October 8, 1897.

Maui, October 8, 1897.
Last evening at the residence of
Hon II. p. Baldwin, Haiku, occurred
the October meeting of the Makawao
Literary Society. The usual Haiku
weather prevailed and the rain came
down in torrents, though luckily not
until everybody had assembled. The
verandas were lighted by many Japa-
nese lanterns and bouquets of flowers
and ferns were placed about the rooms
of the house. Messrs. c. II. Dickey
and ID. {. Lindsay each gave vocal
solo. y piano solo and a vocal solo by
Mrs. Highly were very warmly APP
plauded, and the latter encored. The
other musical event of the program
was vocal trio by Messrs. Lindsay,
Nicoll and c. w. Baldwin, in their
usual style. Then followed a farce in
one act, entitled Trying 1t On" with
the following east: Walsingham Potts,
S. r. Dowdle: Mr.. Tittlebat. c. w.
Baldwin, Mr.. Jobstock. c. II. Dick
ey: Fanny, Miss Kate Flemming;
Mrs. Jobstock, Miss Nellie Smith;
Lucy, Miss Eva Smith. The play was
very well rendered throughout and
the characters well sustained. Great
ing much applause and laughter. As
Walsingham Potts, the leading char
acter. Mr.. Dowdle made his first APP
pearance on the Makawao stage. and
made a decided hit. The other per-
formers have often been on before,
and their capabilities are well known.
The programs were gotten up in novel
style. Instead of passing them round
two large ones, most artistically
| drawn up and decorated, were hung
in different parts of the room, in
full view of everybody. Mr.. Dowdle
was the artist. After the program, ice
cream, cake, sandwiches and coffee
were served, and a delightful evening
passed. Rain coats and wraps were
then in order. for it was beautiful
evening for web-footed fowl.
Another attempt was made last ev-
ening at Paia to form an anti-anneXa-
tion association, but as only about
| eight turned up, ii was again fail
ure. The plan was to form also
woman's auxiliary, but there were not
enough present to fill the offices.
y petition is talked of which may
| result in the unseating of Judge .Kaai.

\ CLEVER DEVICE.
Comes From San Francisco to Honolu-
lu-Will Surely be Welcomed.

\ most interesting device arrived
from San Francisco by the last stea-
mer. 1t is the Solar water heater,
patented in the United States, and will
be patented here when the necessary
papers arrive.
The heater came to j. Emmuleuth,
who has set ii in position in his build
ing. The suns rays generate heat in
an insulated chamber. which contains
reservoirs of water and with an iniet
supply of cold water. There is plenty
of hot water not only during the day,
but the insulation of the box keeps
the air and water inside hot over
night. The heater is placed on roof
in position and that is the end of II.
No fire, no repairs, nor anything, but
"A constant supply of hot water.
This results in making stove fire
unnecessary, even when hot water is
wanted for regulating "A bath or for
household purposes, or even for emer-
gencies.
For tropical country where il Is
undesirable to keep stove going be-
cause of heating the house, and yet
when hot water il needed. il is fine, a
valuable innovation and properly put
in almost heats water to the boiling
point. -

PRESIDENTS RECEPTION TO MR..
MORGAN.
The Executive Building is Gorgeous
ly Decorated-Will Surpass Any
thing Given in Honolulu for Years.

1t has been several years since the
Executive building has presented such
beautiful appearance at it does this
afternoon. There has been but one
State reception since the establish
ment of the Government, and that was
given in the Judiciary building, COM
plimentary to the officers of the Unit
ed States man of war, Boston.
Everything is in readiness for this
evenings reception. Extending across
each of the four entrances to the
grounds and running down either side
of the four driveways to the Executive
building, will be japanese lanterns.
Strings of these lanterns with other
beautiful effects will encircle the
building at both the lower and upper
verandas. At the King street and Ho-
tel street entrances of the building
have been arranged large American
and Hawaiian flags.
The main hallway, has been taste
fully arranged. The chandeliers are
decorated with MALE and jassamine.
Along the sides and about the balus-
trades are stationed prodigious palms
and pottedo plants.
In the great hall, just off the main
hallway, the decorations are severely
plain. A small Hawaiian flag and an
American flag have been woven to-
gether to surmount the canopy, in
place of the royal crown which was
taken down in 1893. Large flags ar
ranged in the same style have been
neatly arranged at the head of the
hall. On the platform are many palms
and plants. The drapery in the room
harmonizes with the national coIors.
On the three large mirrors are sta
toned three immense banks of flowers
one being red carnations, the second
white asters and cosmos, and the third
purple asters, making the effect red,
white and blue.
The president and his party will re-
ceive in this hall. After the reception
dancing will be the pleasure. The
floor has been primed for dancing.
The verandas have not been over
looked in palm decorations. The gov
ernment band will discourse music
from the Waikiki veranda.
The upper floor has been arranged
more for promenade. The decora-
tions are profuse and are similar to
those on the main floor.

TWO HANAMAULU MEN DEVISE.
A PLAN.
Captain Campbell Tells of a Scheme TO
Generate Enormous Power From the
Famous Kauai Falls.

Captain Campbell of the Inter Is
land Steamship Company, who re-
turned yesterday from an outing on
Kauai, is responsible for the story
that Mr.. Carter, an English engineer
in charge of thetsteam plows at Ha-
namaulu, and w. G. Smith, book
keeper at the same plantation, have
devised plan for Harvesting the Wal
alua falls, and securing from them
sufficient power to run the plows and
car systems on the plantation.
According to Captain Campbell's
story, Messrs. Carter and Smith have
been working on their scheme for
two years, and believe that they have
overcome the greatest difficulties in
the way. They can calculate on a
total fall of 200 feet. At this season
of the year. when the water in the riv-
er is at its lowest ebb, the river above
the falls is about two and one-half
feet in depth. Sometimes the volume
of water is enormous. 1t has always
been contended that the water supply
is not steady enough to generate a
power the year around, but the pro-
moters of the present scheme say
that in their observation, it is suffici-
ent. They have found splendid site
for their plant and have surveyed a
road to the spot which they say can
be built cheaply.
Captain Campbell sees great
possibilities in the scheme devised by
Messrs. Carter and Smith. He says
that not only can enough power be
generated according to their calcula-
tions, to run the plows and tram car
systems on the plantation, but
to light it by electricity, and do
some of the mill work. They will
make a small beginning, but accord
ing to Captain Campbell, it is within
the range of possibilities that they
may, before they get through, supply
the power to work a great deal more.
If the plans of Messrs. Smith and
Carter are carried out, they expect To
have their plant on the ground with
in the next twelve months, in time 10
handle next years crop. They will
secure their financial backing on Ka-
uai, it is likely, as they have interes-
ested several gentlemen there who can
spare the money. Captain Campbell
says that application will be made to
the government in the near future for
water rights and land privileges, but
no difficulty is anticipated in arrang-
ing such matters.

OUR REPAIR DEPARTMENT

Is "a business in itself. We have late
ly secured the services of Mr.. j. W.
Harvey, a thorough Bicycle mechanic,
who for the past fourteen years has
been in connection with bicycle manu-
featuring and repairing. We did not
pick him up on the streets here, bui
sent to headquarters in the States,
where bicycles are made. We need
not go further to explain his ability,
but will end here by saying there is
nothing that can happen to your Bike
but what he can make as good as
new. He is no Jack of All Trades"
but is a Master of the Bicycle.
BY the next Australia, we will4re-
ceive the most complete outfit for En-
ameling frames ever brought to Hon
olulu, so if your wheel needs enamel
ing it will pay you to wait little lon
ger and have good job done. We
guarantee to turn out work as good
as that of the factories in the States,
for only S5.
If your tire is cut don't throw it
away, bring il to us and we will re-
pair it, so you will never know where
it was cut, for only 81.
If you have a punctured tire bring
it to us and it will only cost you 50
cents.
If you should happen to run into u
sidewalk or telephone post and so
break a rim, we will put new one
in for $3.50. and guarantee the best
job in the city.
The reason we can do this work
better than anyone else is because we
keep "A man at each branch, and of
course he becomes expert at the
branch he handles.
For instance we have one man for
all frame work, another man for all
rim and wheel trueing work, anoth-
er man for enameling.

food properly because they lack the
proper quantity Of digestive acids (lactic
and hydrochlorio) and peptogenic prod

of indigestion, is to take after each meal
