EDITOR BUJLETIN:-In your is
sue of today you make some state
ments on the above, which to say
the least are not true. Many of
the residents, including myself,
were particular in examining the
ditch at its critical points during
the heaviest downpours, and they,
without exception, will tell you
that the capacity of the ditch was
never taxed, and will moreover
positively assert that it nowhere
overlooked, there being not more
than eight or nine inches in it
(little more than the rain which
fell in it) during the height of the
storm. AS regards the utility OF
the ditch ito use your words: Were
it not for the existence of the ditch
there would have been some grie.

you. This is not satire, Mr.. Editor,
aud it has the recommendation of
being true. Though in no way
connected with the neighborly
friction alluded to, ] have the
most cause for complaint, the
storm having served me the worst
owing to the above cause.
One important thing the storm
did, was to prove that, If the sur

Families will find it to their
interest to buy canned goods
or bottled delicacies by the
case. They keep as well in the
pantry as on our shelves and
the purchaser gets the benefit
of the wholesale rate. The
saving is considerable and our
prices are as low, if not lower
than any place in Honolulu.
There's no question about the
quality. Think it over and let
this be one of your 1897
resolutions.
Among the many rellshes
for use on the table every day
and for hot or cold meats Chut-
ney ranks first. 1t is essentially
East Iud,an and the flavor of
the sp.c givcs zest to the
appetite. $ me of the brands
are from rmulas evolved in
the brains of English army
officers who have campaigned
in India. The aptitude of the
English t. cotton on to good
things for the table is proven
bal and the designing" Of
Chutney has not weakened
their reputation in this respect.
We have seven different
brands of Cocoa: Gheradelli's;
Phillips Digestible; Van Hou-
tens; Epps Homeopathic; Wal
ter Bakers Breakfast; Cracked
in bulk and G, Goa Shell in bulk.
Persons finding Chocolate too
heavy for them experience only
pleasant results from the use
of cocoa. We are certain Of the
quality Of the goods and do not
hesitate to recommend Them.
We believe we carry the lar
gest stock of groceries in Ho-
nolulu and our facilities for
supplying customers is unsur-
passed.

The return of Nansen from the
Arctic and his great achieve
ments are still the wonder of the
scientific world. Nansen's theory
of the movement of the ice pack
and the experience of the Fran
have been a revelation to the
Arctic experts. When the ex-
petition started out it was con-
sidered a foolhardy venture, but
it now seems Nansen was right.
Among the many things found to
confirm his theory of the move
ment toward the pole was a
wooden box, which was picked up
near the farthest point reached.
This box was opened and to the
delight of the entire expedition
was found to contain two dozen
bottles of Rainier Beer. 1t was
found to be cool, sparkling and
refreshing. 1t is likely Nansen's
testimonial to the superior quail
ties and taste of Rainier Beer
may be added to the many al

A MAD SONG.

And cut and peeled a hazel wand
And hooked berry to thread;
And when white moths were on the wing.
And mothlke stars were flickcring out.
dropped the berry in stream,
And caught a little silver trout
When l had lain it on a stool.
l bent to blow the fire aflamc:
But something rustled on the stool
And some one called me by my name
1t had become a glimmering girl
With apple-blossom in her hair,
Who called me by my name. and ran
And faded through the Frightening air.
Though I am old with wandering
In barren hills and marshy land.
j Will find out where she has gone.
And kiss her lips and take her hand.
And walk among long dappled grass
And pluck till time and times are done
The silver apples Of the moon,
The golden apples of the sun.

Some women are born stronger than
others. Some are born with what is
called constitutional weakness. 1t
Is easier for some women to retain
health and strength than it is for 9th
ers. Some seem able to do anything
they like, whenever they like, without
serious results. Still, there is no rea-
son why women should not enjoy per-
feet health. Those who do not, need
only take the proper precautions and
the proper remedy to become perfectly
well and strong. DR.. Pierce's FavOrite
Prescription will cure any derange-
ment of the distinctly feminine organ
ism. 1t is absolutely certain. There
are some who have neglected them
selves so long that complete cure is
next to impossi bic. but even these will
find comfort and improved health in
the use OF the '.Favorite Prescription. "
1t has cured hundreds of women who
have received no relief whatever from
| years OF treatment with good physl-
clans. It is absolutely unique in the
history of medicine. Such rened y
can be discovered only once. There IL
| nothing in the world like it, nor ht
! there even been. Its sales exceed the
| combined sales of all other medicines
| for women.

IT would appear that it is an impossi-
bility for any correspondent of Amer
lean papers to tell the truth about Cub
en- or Spanish affairs. For long time
General Weyler and the Spanish min
lister at Washington were kept busy
denying the truth of sensational reports
telegraphed from Key West, and now
the Spanish premier at Madrid is kept
busy contradicting false reports tele-
graphed from Madrid of alleged inter-
views between himself and General
Wood ford.

GEN. WEYLER has resigned again,
for the 'steenth time, according to
American correspondents. According
to these same veracious gentlemen
Weyler has resigned about as often as
the bushwhackers. have been on the
eve of capturing Havana, utterly ig-
noring the fact that bushwhackers al
ways and carefully avoid getting
within range of the heavy guns of a
fortified town that is well garrisoned
and backed by the long-rauge guns of
battleships.

THE crisis or change in the cabinet
of Spain is not likely to affect Cuban
affairs greatly, one way or the other.
OF course, If liberal cabinet should
be formed under Sagasta the Cubans
might be offered autonomy, but this
they would reject with scorn, and the
Cuban leaders have often declared that
they would except nothing short of alb
solute independence of Spain and of the
United States as well. Rebuffed by the
rebels, the liberals Of Spain would be-
come as unrelenting toward them us
the conservatives have been, and
the whole people of Spain
would become united as one man,
and the scornful Cubans would have to
take to the brush for another ten years,
and then give up the struggle as at the
end of the last ten years rebellion On
the island.

THAT eminent paleontologist, Pro-
lessor Marsh, of Yale, tells us 1.-THE
average brain of the Caucasian out
weighs that of all other races except
the japanese, but that the latter has a
brain superior in weight to that of the
boastful Caucasian" Upon this fact
Professor Marsh bases the prediction
that 1.-THE Japanese are the coming
race" Partly upon this and partly
upon his own personal knowledge of
Japanese character and aspirations,
Rear Admiral George Belknap (retir-
ed) bases the opinion that japan will
not forget her hope of acquiring the
Hawaiian Islands without fight, and
he expresses his belief that the little

confidence as they did into colossal
China, in case we carry out the policy
of annexation. An Englishman re-
