Washington. March 23.-The first
day of the tarin debate in the house
was rather tame from both spectacular
and an oratorical standpoint. The gall

bers on the noor listened conscientious
ly, but -Aere was an absence both of
that sharp cross firing which keeps the
nerves on edge and the brilliant elo-
auence which inspires and holds the
imagination. The opening of the de-
bate was delayed over two hours by the
full reading of the bill Of 162 pages.
and this, to begin with, had a some
what depressing Influence The Re-
publican members insisted on this to
avoid the possible charge IN the future
that the bill was never read In full to
the house, a thing which happened in
the case Of both the Mckinley and
Wilson bills, only four speeches were
made at the day session. Mr.. Ding

opposition.

SNOW SHEDS BURNED.
Fire Near Truckee Destroys Over
Half a Mile of Them.


SACRAMENTO, Cal, September 20.
Shortly after noon today fire start
ed in the snowsheds three-quarters OF
a mile east of tunnel 13 station, which,
before it was extinguished, burned q
700 feet of sheds. The burned sheds
were in one continuous section Of 1900
feet, seven miles west of Truckee, and
it was with the utmost difficulty that
any part Of the structure was saved.
AS it was, the flames communicated to
the timber on the upper side OF the
track, which at this time of year is as
dry as powder. Tonight the whole
mountain side is wrapped in flames
and hundreds of men are fighting il
back from the sheds.
When the alarm was rung in the flre
trains from Truckee and Summit were
Immediately dispatched to the scene
to fight the flames from opposite sides
Johnny Fitzgerald, engineer of the
Summit train and the oldest fire-tralr
engineer in the employ of the Southern
Pacific, ventured too far into the burn
ing shed. The result was that the
flames enveloped his cab, setting it or
fire and scorching him so badly thai
he had to be taken back to Summit
for treatment AS the fire was spread
ing, the fire train at Blue Canyon wa:
dispatched to the assistance Of thu
other two, and after hours Of work tn
flames in the sheds were extlngulshed

Stealing Bananas.

While Captain Bowers OF the Mer-
chants Patrol was coming along Nuu-
anu street about / o'clock this morning
he noticed four men, each carrying a
bunch of green bananas. He ques-
toned them and, receiving no answer
determined to follow and put them un-
der arrest. Just then the men got
around Hotel street and started to run
Bowers called on the men to stop and
two of them did so, but the others
dropped their fruit and ran. Officer
Espinda, who was near, blew his whis-
tie and started after the others. Bow
ers took his prisoners to the station
and went back after the others. Espin,
da had one, and the other was founo
without trouble. They stated that they
did not know where they got the fruit
as they were sailors on the j. G. Glade
and had been here only two days. The
men were locked up.

Honolulu Bicycle Company's Ele-
CANT Store.

Honolulu Bicycle Company's Ele-
giant Store.
Internationally, the above company
has the handsomest and most tastefully
arranged bicycle establishment in this
city. A visit quickly convinces one
that Manager Hitchcock knows the
bicycle business from A to q. The
show windows are very tastefully ar
ranged, and in them are shown a Ia
dies and gents model Of the "Kensing-
tom bicycle, which is most emphatic
ally the finest high-grade wheel ever
shown here; and is, without doubt,
the finest wheel now made in the
United States. The bearings in this
wheel are a revelation in dust-proof
and oil retaining qualities, and are not
equalled in any other make Of wheel.
There are on exhibition in one of the
show windows, complete set of the
"Kensington" bearings with drawings
in explanation. The work on these
bearings, and the material of which
they are made, are not equalled in any
other wheel. The company also handle
the "Sylph" which comes in after the
sKensington" as good second. Upon
entering the store one is at once struck
with the interior arrangement for the
display of wheels and sundries, which
for economy in space, is certainly
unique, and shows Off the elegant line
of wheels to the best advantage. The
repair department of this establish
ment is without question the most COM
plete Of any in the city, and will con-
tain ten or twelve different pieces Of
machinery for use in the repair of
bicycles, etc. The company can well
feel proud of their establishment.
