portation of liquor. bank accommodation, and
police escort for gold are subjects that Mr..
Sipton will likely bring to the attention OF the

thought of the plan proposed by President

plan proposed by the Congressman WAS outlined

one. He added:
Tho two factions of the Republican party
must get together in one organization; do not
be a union and reorganization on some plan"

To go buy Bicycle, don't do so un-
til you first know 1t were wise to give
OURS the ego by" Why we sell so
many Bicycles is no mystery, for the
names Rambler" Columbia" and
"Stearns" are known TO every one who
knows what the word Bicycle means,
and about everybody in the Islands
knows that we are the agents for these
three leading makes.
We will not say much about the
''Stearns" this time, as the lot of '91
wheels which left New York on Febru-
airy 10th. did not catch the Australia"
and you do not want to hear about
wheel you cannot see, so we will tell
you about them when they get here.
But if you want a pretty mount, some
thing up to date, come in and see orr
81 "Colum bias" and "Ramblers;" but
come quick, as we have sold over half
of the lot just received, and we are sure
70 be out OF both makes before we can
get a good look at them ourselves.
We will have just forty-four (44) BIZ
cycles on the Australia" when she gets
here on March Both, and from that on
we don't think anybody will go by to
buy a wheel because we have not got
the stock TO show them.
Our "Columbias" this year, as well
as our ''Ramblers." are fitted with the
weII-known G.. & ]. tires. This tire has
proved to be the best one ever used in
these Islands, and if you get the gen
uine c.. & J. tire you get what you need
for this climate and our roads. The
genuine G. & J. tire is sold by the
Rambler" Agency here, and is fitted
TO wheels we order. You can get tires
that are said TO be G. & J. and look
lust the same. but you won't want more
than one pair; looks don't wear, you
know.
Points of interest to you will be the
way the spokes are fastened on the
''CoIum bias" the new special seat and
the handles and grips on the Ladies
"RambIers:" in fact, you will find lots
10 interest you, and you are welcome TO
examine any wheel 10 your hearts con-
tent. even if you have no idea OF BUY

WAS FOUND DEAD
Alex. Gray, a Consumpt-
i've, Shoots Himself.
Deed Committed With Parlor Rifle
Found Lying in Coach
House.

Alexander Gray, young man 26
years of age, committed suicide by
shooting himself in the mouth, some
time between o'clock and midnight
last night.
Deceased was an engineer by pro-
fession, but has been too i'll from con-
sumption for two years past to do any
work. During most of that time he
has lived with his uncle, William
Aud. at Palama. His father, George
Gray, who at one time was manager
for Alexander Cleghorn, is the young
mans father.
Deceased was in rather better spirits
than usual yesterday, and retired about
. p. m. At midnight one of the mem
bers of Mr.. Auld's family had occa-
sion TO get UP to administer tOothache
drops to a boy who was suffering.
To get the medicine il was necessary
10 pass through Gray's room. II was
found empty. and his night dress was
on d chair AT the same time it was
noticed that a 32-caliber parlor rife
was missing from the room.
Other members of the family were
called. and suspicion that something

Lucas. clerk of the Supreme Court,
and relative of Mr.. Auld's, was tele-
phoned TO. and he came out and Joined
the search through the yard. The
mans slippers were found near the
coach house. and Mr.. Lucas pursued
his search into the carriage house. and
there found the body fully dressed,
and with the rife at his side. He had
fastened a string to the trigger and
put his foot through the loop. The
ball had passed through the roof of the
mouth. evidently resulting in instant
death.
Deceased was an inmate OF Queens
Hospital for a time but was discharg-
ed as incurable. He then went TO Niu
with Mr. Aud, but deriving no benefit
returned to town and placed himself
in the hands of Chinese herb doctor,
but got no relief. Lately he has been
using patent medicine and told his
relatives he felt better.
Young Gray was we'll known on the
Island of Maui, where he was born,
as well as at HonOkaa. where he was
employed. Deputy Marshal Hitchcock

The movement 10 establish a COM
paEy for the purpose of inaugurating
a carrier-pigeon service between the
Islands of the group is not altogether
dead. Commissioner Marsden is ac-
lively engaged in an effort to secure
subscriptions 10 the stock. and is meet
ing with fair satisfaction.
It is expected that sufficient stock
viii be subscribed before Mr.. Marsden
leaves for the Coast, as he offers his
services to select and purchase birds
while in san Francisco.
Mr.. Marsden states that he mailed
maps OF the Islands 10 the best-known
hOming pigeon men in the United
States. and has heard in reply that
neither the distance or the channel
winds will be an obstacle in the way
Of successful fights.
The following prospectus. with
rough estimate of cost and mainten-
ance of the plant, has been prepared
by Mr. Marsden and submitted TO in
tending purchasers of stock:
PROSPECTUS.
The need OF more frequent and
speedy transmission of messages be
tween the Islands of the Hawaiian
group is strongly felt. and as there
seems to be little or no prospect of an
inter-island cable. at least for many
years 10 come. il is proposed TO form
a company for the purpose of estab-
fishing and maintaining homing pig
con lofts. on each of the large islands
for the purpose OF transmitting mes
sages between the Islands by means OF
hOming pigeons.
1t is proposed that the company be-
gin with a capital of $4,000, divided
into 400 shares of so each. with pro-
vision to increase to 10000
1t is proposed to begin with a loft
in Honolulu and equip it with 30 pairs
of young birds of pedigree stock, and
4 or pairs of older birds, when prog
eny have an established reputation as
good as hOmers.
Within a year from the time the Ho-
nolulu loft is established, lofts on each
of the other islands can be instituted
and equipped with young birds that
are reared in the Honolulu loft.
The distances between the islands
as marked on the accompanying map
are we'll within the powers of homine
pigeons to fly and carry messages. The
following is a rough estimate of the
cost of establishing and maintaining
the enterprise:

A Thirteen Month Year.

1t is suggested that on Jan. l, 1900,
q new division of the year into 10
months be instituted. If such division
were made, the first IL months would
have 2S days. or four weeks each, and
the new month 30 days, to make 800,
and 80 in leap years. After few days
there would be no need to refer to calen.
dars, as the same day of the week wodld
have the same date through the year.
If Jan. were, say, Monday, every Mon
day would be the LIST, Sth, 10Th and god;
every Tuesday the I'd, 9th, 10th and

4 WOman's Manner.

The influence of beautiful man
ner cannot be overrated. 1t carries
with it a charm that beauty of face
or figure cannot impart. 1t makes
homes happier, it makes friends
happier, it makes the world happier,
and it costs the possessor nothing.
A lovely manner expresses a lovely
character. 1t has number of in
gradients, the chief of which is self
forgetting; charity of thought is al
so essential, as this always gives
rise to kind thoughts; dignity, but
not too much of it; calmness and re-
'finement are important adjuncts.
A sweet voice, which is by-the-way
often the result of cultivation, adds
impressiveness as nothing else can.
Fortunate indeed is the woman
whose every tone is music, and who
debases not her soft voice by rude
ness of manner or severity of speech.
One who is always thoughtful of
Others, rather than of self, whose
kindness of heart penetrates voice
and manner, has invariably Il pecu-
liar charm which is inspiring and
helpful to all with whom she comes
an contact.

THE GIRL THAT LOVE BEST.

4 know not if critics would deem her
A beauty by rules of Art;
But her face has the witching sweet
ness
That is borne of a gentle heart.
She never has danced the German,
Nor practiced the latest quadrille,
And doubt if the Paris fashions
Her thoughts for moment fill.
But o, in the glow of the fireside
She shines as an angel fair,
And home is akin to heaven
When the girl love is there!
Her manners are sweet and simple,
Her voice like the note of the dove,
And she yields with matchless power
The magical wand of Love.
She sees when mother is weary
And hastens her burdens to share,
She lightens, by loving service,
The weight of her fathers care.
She has gentle words for the children,
And helping hand for all
The shadows seem to vanish
AT sound Of her light football.
Then sing not to me of your maidens
That shine meath the chandelier,
Nor chant of your dollhouse beauties
With grace that no heart doth cheer
touch the Tyre, and the music
Shall ring with gladstone Zest.
In praise of the H0aSebotd Angel,
The girl that | love best!
