keeper may we'll worry over
her lighting bills.
Electric lights are all very
well for people with long purses
but for people of average means
there is nothing like the old
fashioned lamps. They give a
softer light, are, not SO wear
ing on the eyes, and are not
all the time jumping and bob
bling about. OF those who
still use coal oil lamps we ask
attention to a stock that cam
MT be eXcelled in Honolulu.
They come in all sizes, STYLES,
and prices. We have HANG
ING LAMPS, from moderate
cost to elaborate designs; HALL

Recovery.

is entertained that he can recover.
The immediate cause of his suffer.
ing is cancer Of the jaw, the
ravages of which in spite of
several operations his physicians
are unable to arrest
Mr.. Gulick has been more than
unfortunate of late years. Some
four years ago he was attacked by
a very severe and prolonged spell
OF whooping cough, which severe
ly racked his system. He had
scarcely recovered from the effects
of that illness when he was again
laid up with the grip. This took
n firm hold on him and he did not
seem to he able to shake IT off.
Then before he had fully recover
ed came his arrest FOR misprision
of treason in connection with the
last revolution, with all the dis
comforts of prison life aud con
fnement for several weeks. Now
he is attacked by disease which
is slowly but surely eating out
what little vitality remains to
him.

Since the days of depression in
this country, caused 10y the reflex
action Of the Mckinley bill, there
has been r steady increase OF both
stores and workshops IL Honolulu
and Hilo. That this development
has been in the line of progress
and not that OF undue competition
is proved by various evidences
Many of the long established
concerns have enlarged and
otherwise improved their quarters.
Failures have been remarkably
few. Merchants and mechanics
have invested an immense aggre-
gate Of surplus profits and savings
in sugar and coffee planting, be
sidc3 other enterprises. Each
succeeding Christmas holiday
season has Witnessed an increase
OF business. Two religious demo
limitations that a few years ago
had neither habitation nor name,
outside the hearts of a few pro
fessors, have now comely places
of wors hip of their own with
stated ordinances literally sup
ported. The school housing has
been greatly expanded and i'm
proved. Sundry philsnthropic
movements have been added to
the former good works of the
community, and with few
exceptions all have funds sufficient
to maintain their vitality.
There has never been any per
ceptible boom neutrality-suspicious.,
in building operations. Only a
quiet, steady development of the
country's visible prosperity. Even
in the matter of new stores, ware
houses, factories and dwellings, it
would be hard to mark on the be-
ginning of any boom, for since
1880 there has been a steady i'm
provemeut in the city's architcc
ture of all kinds. 1t has only
been a little more rapid some
years than others, but in addi-
tons instead of requirements the
past four years have been pre-
eminent. When, after the fire Of
1886, George W. Macfarlane adj
vertised the sale of the land at
Hotel and Beretania streets, with
the lure to spectators that 1t WAS
destined to be the business
center, the wisdom of the curb
stone became embellished with
smiles. Let anybody drive round
that corner today, or consult the
advertising columns of the Bull.
LETIN. 1t is to be hoped that
Honolulu will be preserved from
any Fictitious boom, and that its
STEADY advance in prosperity will
continue.

Before Judge Bopnev.

Tuesday-Henri Belonger alias Charles

his plea of not guilty and pleaded guilty.
Samuel II. Lisk, indicted for assault
with a dangerous weapon upon Henry
Turner, with intent to kill, fled de-
murrer and gave bail.
Edward Burke, Edward Flaherty and

at this term to similar offense.
State VS.. Pasquals Rugisro, an indict :
ment for ASSAULT with a dangerous weap-
on upon Que Michael Jimino with intent
to kill. This trial grew out of the shoot
ing affray which occurred OH the third
of last December at the corner Of Cou-
gress and Center streets When first OBJ
served Jimino stood on the sidewalk
making signs and angry motions at the
respondent; whereupon tina respondent
drew revolver and ran towards Jimino,
who seized Mrs. Walter that CHANGED
to be passing and held her in front of
him, at the same time screaming "mur-
der.'' The respondent then grabbed
Jimino by the shoulder and the two men
clinched and rolled over into the gut
ter, and few moments after the revol-
yer shot was heard. MIR. Smith, the
street car conductor, testified that he ar
rived a few seconds after the shot was
fred, and found Jimino on top, while
the respondent had his right arm
doubled under him with the revolver
tightly clinched III his hand. The men
were taken up into Dr.. Ways office, over
Loling, Short 6 Harmon's. Here 1t
was found that Jimino had two holes in
his coat and red streak across his back
made by the bullot.
The defendant claims that Jimino
insulted him with vile language and that
he drew the revolver merely to frighten
Jimino without intending to shoot.
Several witnesses were called who testi-
fed that the respondents reputation fer
poaceableness WAS good. On trial.

THE FIRE A MYTH.
But the City Will Have Bill for Repairs
on the Chemical.

There was an optical illusion on Pearl
street last evening at n little after
O'Clock that fooled good many people,
frightened the family of Mr.. VIM. N.
Howe and has given fireman some pain
full injuries to nurse and the city bill
resulting from collision with tree on
Pearl street, while running to the scene
of the supposed fire just below Cumbur-
land street.
MIR. Howe occupies the upper rent in
the new brick fat building on Pearl
street, just below Cumberland. Some
vapor rising from ventilating pipe in
the roof and the glare of light con-
tributed by the moon just rising gave an
excellent imitation of fire, and sons
body sent In an alarm to the central
station, to which Hose and the
chemical responded. The fremen hustled
up on the roof and dispelled the illusion
very quickly.
Hose 5, was just ahead of the chemical
going down Pearl street at a lively gait.
In some way Ben Sawyer its driver did
not take just the direction Driver
O'Rourke of the chemical expected him
to and in pulling his horses up sharply to
avoid danger the rear end of the engine
swung heavily against big tree. 1t
sma shed the whiffletree, sprung the rear
axle and demolished the rear step. Fire
man John O'Rourke was standing on
the step and his leg got in between the
tree and engine. His injuries did not
prevent his climbing through scuttie on
to the roof but when the excitement wore
off he began to feel his bruises and
gu ffered keenly. He WAS taken to DR..
Alfred King, who dressed the injuries.
He will DO laid up perhaps week. The
chemical goes to the Portland company
this morning for treatment.

Kescript by Haskell, 1.-THE plaintiff
must receiver, if at all, upon the strength
of her own title. This She attempts to
do by proving lost decd under whicn
she Claims title. In such cases the law
is very strict. Titles to real estate pass
by deed and when such deed has not
bsen recorded and cannot be produced
and no copy of it is in evidence. the
testimony CT witnesses as TO the existence
of such decd and of its contents must
be so clear and convincing as TO almost
preclude the possibility of mistake. 1t
would be dangerous to allow record
titles to be destroyed by tie testimony
of witnesses, unless the testimony be
very clear and explicit, and in this CASE
the testimony is not of that character.
The existence of such deed has already
been considered by the court in anoth-
or case between these parties, and while
that case YVES disposed Of by nonsuit and
decides nothing but that action, IL is
proper to refer to the opinion OF the
court i'll that cnse as bearing upon this
case, and we conclude, as the court did
in that case that the existence of such
a deed as claimed in this case, is not sat
isfaotorilY shown; nor is such conduct
shown on the part of defendant as to
raise an equitable estoppei upon him to
deny its existence.
Plaintiff also claims title by 20 years
averse possession of the land that she
seeks to recover in this action; but, dur
ing such 90 years, the plaintiff brought
suit against the defendant to recover the
Same land. In that action she alleged
that defendants had diaseized her and
held her out of possession of the land.
such dissesion and possession BIZ tine
defendant would interrupt the plaintiff s
continued possession. She cannot acquire
title by adverse possession while she
has been disseized by the true owner Of
the land, and this fact she has admitted
by her former writ.
