F1annels In the Laundry.

Flunnels and silk undergarments
should be treated in much the same
manner. Soap should never be rubbed
on the garment, and the washing and
rinsing waters must be Of the same tenn
perature. Pure soap will not injure fan
nels, so it is economy, in this case, as
in others, to buy the best. Make good
soapsuds, using water little more than
lukewarm. Wash the fannels in this,
plunging them up and down, but not
scrubbing them, as this thickens the
texture. Use as many soapy waters as
may be necessary, having them as nearly
as possible of the same temperature.
Rinse in several lukewarm waters and
put through the wringer. This is the
advice given in Table Talk, authority
also for the following:
Flannels should never be twisted in
the hands. If impossible to use wiring
er. lift the flannels from the water with
one hand and with the other squeeze
the garment until it is comparatively
dry, then shake it thoroughly and dry
in the same temperature in which it has
been washed. Many who are most sue
cessful in washing fannels never wiring
them at all, but take them from the
water and allow them to drip until they
begin to dry finishing the process by
the fire. 1t is either poor soap, bad han
ding or quick changes Of temperature
that cause fiannels to shrink. If they are
ironcd, they must not be left to dry be-
forehand, but ironed while damp until
dry

The Warrimoo that is expected
here April 16 from Victoria will
bring a large consignment of
Original Book Beer for the An
Choir Saloon. While there has
been Book Beer on the Honolulu
market, it does not begin to com
pare with tho consignment that
the Anchor will have on tap after
the arrival of the Warrimoo. The
reason for this is that the DOCK
that has already arrived is roo
fresh. The Book Beer in the
States is made at the first of the
year and kept till May l. The con-
signment to arrive is some Of the
original beer and is guaranteed to
be better than any Book ever i'm
ported. Wait for it. 1t will be

CYCLING on SUNDAI VS..

The Methodist Book Concern has
issued q little tract against the use of
the bicycle on Sundays. 1t contains
II pledge which the reader is request
ed to sign, aud that pledge reads: 81
promise that | will not use the bicycle
on Sundays to attend meets. runs or
races nor for mere pleasure riding +;
nor in such a way as to interfere with
public quiet, personal rest, and d.
vine worship Would it not be SIN
gular to say, 81 will not use the hicy-
Gle on Sundays for any reasons What
ever"a We like to see Sunday kept
in a manner conform to the holiness
of the day but we think that exact
ing too much from church members is
alternating them from the church.
Let the clergy understand that people
ton, and if one delights in riding Il
bicycle, let him do SO. provided he
does not neglect his religious duties
on that account. There is no more
harm in riding a bicycle on Sunday
than in going IN foot. Riding and
walking are means to go from one
place to another, and who can forbid
this? Do the Methodists intend tn
initiate the men that framed in past
times the sO-ca,led blue laws of Mas
sachusetts aud Connecticut, by which
men we're forbidden to walk in their
gardens or on the street on Sunday.
and by which it was made a penal
otfense to travel, cook v%ictnals, make
beds, sweep the house, etc; by which
a mother was forbidden to kiss her
child on Sunday aud husbands and
wives we're forbidden to kiss each
other under eve penalties South

ALL SAINTS DAY.

Last Monday. All Saints Day, was
observed with becoming devoti"n. and
cemeteries were decorated in
honor of our dead.
At St-Josephs' Church high mass
WAS celebrated at 10 o'clock, and the
cli0iI under the able direction of Prof.
Chol rendered exquisite music. The
mass sung for the OCCASION is. we have
been informed, one of Prof. Chal's
own compositions ; and while we do
not pretend to be judges in such
matters. W. do say that there are
some parts. notably the Gloria aud
in the Credn which were grand.
IL the afternoon the vespers for
the Dead were sung, followed by an
interesting sermon by Rev. Father
Dnbourg, and a professional visit TO
the cemetery.

BRYANT4LhSONTHER RESULT.

SAYS Tuesdays Election Is Conclu-
sive Evidence Silver Is Not Dead.
Lincoln. Neb., Nov. 3.-Mr. Bryan
to-day gave out the following state
ment
To the Associated Press
The returns IRE SO incomplete
that it Is impossible to discuss yester-
days election in detail. The Repub-
Leans that indorsed the Republican
administrator have sustained losses
almost IN every State, and it would
seem that Republican politics are
not being Endorsed at the polls.
The sentiment in favor of the Chica-
90 platform shows a healthy growth
throughout the country. Perhaps
our opponents will now admit that
silver Is not dead. The attempt to
secure International bimetallism has
proved q failure. and it is now more
apparent than ever that the people
of the United States must Iegislate
for themselves on the financial ques-
ton. Free and unlimited coinage at
l6 to is stronger now than it was
q year ago. + gh tariff on a gold
basis has disappointed those Repub-
licans who looked to it for relief.
"Ihe returns are Very encourage
ing. think | voice the sentiments
of Democrats, Pnpuli,ts and Silver
Republicans when | say that the
fight will be continued with even
more earnestness until tile gold mon-
opoly is broken and the money trust
is overthrown. The fusion forces
increase their percentage IN Nebraska
and probably their actual majority.

We have been told by a gentleman
that a citizen of Terrebonne who
went to Kenner to get Mississippi
hands for a T%errebonne planter was
there informed that it would cost So
a head to pass them through that point
He was further informed that deten-
ton camp inmates came cheaper !;
they could be had for 81 a piece.
If this be true, and we believe it to
be, coming from the source it does,
it shows that some parishes, or at
least some officials in some parishes,
have been working the quarantine
racket for the money there was in it
instead of with a view to safeguard
ing the public health. Such methods
tend to bring all quarantine into
disrepute, aud contribute more than
anything else toward the hue and
cry in certain quarters for a Federal
Quarantine.

Everything seems to be going
against the free-silver theorists.
Despite the refusal of the United
States to adopt the free coinage of
silver, the farmers of the country
received more than twice as much for
the September sales of wheat as 10
September of last year. The Septem-
Der exports Of wheat, according To
Dun's Review, were %, 1868, 1888 bushels
against 17,646.s15 bushels in Septem
Der, 1896, but owing to the higher
prices this year the money received
for these expectations was more than
double in 1897 than in 1S96.-Sngar
Belt indicator.
And every body knows that the
rise in the price of wheat is due to
the short crops in other countries.
How does that ''go" against the free
silver theorists !?
