Without a Light.

While coming from the depot after
the races Saturday evening, Sam John
son was arrested for riding a wheel
without a light. He had gone down on
a train in the afternoon and left his
wheel at the depot. Expecting to ar
rive in town before dark, he had taken
no light with him. Instead of walk
ing, he rode his wheel and ran across
officer Moau. He made an attempt to
get away, but the officer overhauled
and took him to the Police Station,
where he was required to put up $40
bail before being released.
The above is the story of the police
officer. 1t seems, however that there
were four others riding along with
Johnson from the depot. None had
lights and they all claim that Moau
ran out and, without warning, pulled
Johnson off his wheel The trial will
bring out the facts.

NARROW ESCAPE.
New Citizens Guard Recruit Meets
With Accident.

A narrow escape from what might
have been a serious accident was ex-
perienced by a Portuguese named Jose
Cordeira at the Iwilei rifle range yes
terday morning.
Cordeira, who is a new recruit of the
Citizens Guard, was practicing at the
targets with a Winchester magazine
rife as issued by the Police Depart
ment to the Guard In his second shot
the cartridge became damned and Cor
deira endeavored to eject it from the
breech by working the ejector back
wards and forwards. The result was
that the shell exploded in the breech.
Both sides of the lock were blown
out, and Cordeira received the whole
charge of seven grains of powder full
in the face injuring both eyes and
scorching off both eyebrows and eye
lashes. He also received severe cut
on the cheek from a portion of the
shell itself.
AS soon as possible DR.. Emerson,
who was Immediately telephoned for,
arrived on the scene, and the sufferer
was removed to the Station House.
No blame can be attached to the de-
partment, for, though the weapon was
of an obsolete type, it was in good
order and Cordeira has only to thank
his good fortune that his recklessness,
shared by many, who can
lay no claim to ignorance, that the
matter was not more serious to him

Novelty
Week..

The smokeless stove on
which water is boiled in our
show window has been a
great attraction for several
days to students in phil
osophy. The Jewel is a good
stove anyway.
The special subject for the
people this week is not
stoves, that subject is daily
one. This week you will
have novelties of all sorts.
This is the season when
the hens 60 on strike and
the price of eggs goes sky
ward. Hens want a little
encouragement now and
then, and the best thing
known to science is green
bones. But they must be
cut up fine. We have the
best green bone cutter in the
world.
Another novelty is the
soap saver, made of re-tin-
ned wire, basket shaped,
with long handles. This is
the best soap saver known
and we have three sizes.
Cheaper than dirt and more
beautifying.
Dripless tea and coffee
StrainerS are new and SER
vicable. There's a cutoff
attachment which prevents
coffee or tea from dripping
on the table cloth after the
cup is filled. Very cheap
these, and pretty too.
A g. knife Victor meat
chopper for a quarter seems
like a dream, but it isn't. We
sell them at that price and
we sell the HoldfaSt dust
pan-beSt you ever saw.
The latest in coasters is

of bread at once. Try one.

years the lead Of this country over the
other countries was increased to 0102
per cent.
"Another impression of the situation
may be gained from the statement that
our trade with the island in 1896, ac-
cording to Hawaiian statistics, reached
SIC, 1924 ,306, the largest amount ever re-
corded, while the figures previously were
for 1890, when total of $18,332, 631.S 80
was reported.
"The United States, however, does not
yet hold so high position in furnishing
goods for Hawaii as in taking the pro-
ducts of the islands. OF the average of
exports for the ten years, nearly $11,-
100000 u year. the United States has
bought practically all. Only one-half of
/ per cent has been sold to other coun-
tries. OF the goods purchased by Ha-
wall on the other hand, the United
States furnishes only about three
fourths.
However, it is chiefly in our sales that
the islands trade is growing. The an
nual amount of these sales for the years
1SS7-'01 was $4,376,312, but for 1891
'96, "a, 1925, while the exports to
Hawaii for last year amounted to &c.
AGA, 2OS, nearly $1,000,OO0 more than for
any previous year.
'The goods coming from Hawaii to
the United states are mainly agricul-
tural products, while the shipments in
the other directions, except breadstuffs.,
are chiefly manufacture. Our imports OF
sugar make the largest item in the trade
while our imports of rice come next.
Next in order are our exports of bread
stuffs, cotton goods, fertilizers, machin-
cry, lumber, tobacco, wire and chem
icals. 1t is noticeable that shipments of
i've stock, meats, apples and corn amount
to very little.
prior to 1876, when the first reciproci-
ty treaty was made between the United
States end Hawaii, the total commerce
averaged OILY 1,956, 500. Since that date
a comparatively steady growth has
brought the total to more than FIVE times
that amount. Figures are furnished for
the first ten months of the fiscal year
1897. as compared with the same period
of 1896. They show large increase in
the import trade.

striking produce exchanges in the leading
German Cities so as to enable the agra
rians to have representatives in the boards
of directors and yet have traders in fu-
lures attend the exchanges regularly as
heretofore The farmers no longer know
what prices to ask or expect for grains,
no market quotations being published.
This condition of things is seriously felt in
connection with new crops, especially in
the rural districts, where the small farm
ers are powerless and in the hands of I'M
scrupulous spectators. Cereals have de-
clined in price instead of rising eight or
ten marks per ton, as Count Won Kanitz,
the father of the obnoxious new bourse
law, proclaimed in the reichstag would be
the case; whereas, in Paris and Budapest
cereals have increased in price.

Emperor William is greatly displeased
with the court of arbitration which de-
prives his brother-in-law, Prince Adolph
of Schaumberg-Lppe of the right of ac-
cession to the regency in Lippe-Detmold.
The regency is worth 100000 marks a
year. Prince Adolph, who is poor. has
gone back to Bonnie to resume his military
duties. The emperor's telegram to the
prince, after the decision of the king of
Saxony in favor of Count Lippe Biesten-
field, has caused great sensation among
the German particularists. 1t contains the
following sentence: 'Detmold could new
err have a better and worthier master or
mistress than you" Special offense has
been given by this reference to the prin-
cess, whose escapades form a familiar top
ic of court gossip. But the tenor of the
whole telegram, and the fact that the
emperor addressed his brother-in-law with
the familiarity of private correspondence,
shows that he did not intend his dispatch
for publication.

Washington, July 1S.-The indications
are that the tariff bill. as agreed to by
the republican conferees yesterday, prob
| ably will have passed both houses of con-
gress and be law at the end of this
week.
Delays and complications now unantici-
pated might somewhat prolong the final
struggle. The republican conferees have
been working hard all day consulting and
arranging the details of the report, which
they now believe they will be able to sub
nit to their colleagues tomorrow morn
ing. The bulk of this work has fallen
upon both leaders. Senator Allison and
Mr.. Dingley, who are preparing the state
ments of the effect of the changes made
by the conferees which will be submitted
to their respective houses. They have
had small army of clerks at work
| throughout the day in the room of the
senate committee ON finance preparing the
bill for the printer. If this task can be
| accomplished tonight, SO that the printed
bill can be laid before the full committee
tomorrow morning, the debate will begin
in the house tomorrow afternoon. 1t is
believed that there is not any disposition
ON the part of the Democrat to delay the
bill in full committee, but the democrats
have had no full meeting to determine
their course.
Mr. Dingley expressed the opinion to-
night that another hour would be sufii-
cient time in which to explain the changes
made by the cOnferees TO their minority
colleagues.
One or two of the democrats tonight are
inclined to insist upon day for delibera-
ton. but they of course realize that they
are helpless if the majority desire to re-
port the bill over their protest, and mas
