To True" the Spokes.

The grating noise sometimes heard
while riding, which is often attributed
to the chain or sprooket, is frequently
the result of the spokes being untrue
To "true" the spokes, get piece of
chalk. pencil sharpened; hold the chalk
near the lower rim, SO that it will just
miss the spoke, and then revolve the
wheel. AS the spokes which need tight
ening come into contact with the chalk
they will be marked and can be tight
ened. Then. in the same manner, find
the next loose spoke, until all have been
adjusted. Spin the wheel around once
more, and If none of the spokes is
marked the wheel is true, SO far as the
spokes are concerned. New York

GET YOUR STRENGTH

We all like to be strong. We like
to feel our muscles creeping under
the skin, as though they wanted
us to call them to act and to work.
But what is strength? What creates

five words, strength comes from di-
gested food. When this vital pro-
cess is retarded what should you

Electric
Company.

The cleanest, brightest safest and really,
in the long run, the cheapest and best light
for use in the family residence, is the incan-
descent electric light. Safe; nothing could
be safer. A few days ago prominent gen.
tleman of Honolulu came rushing down to
the Office of the Electric Company and said:
want it done at once; no more lamps for me.
Last night a lamp tipped over and it came
so near setting fire to the house and burning
my children and / take no more risks"
This is the sentiment of quite a number in
the past few weeks, who have ordered their
houses fitted with the perfect light.
just think it over and make up your mind
that you want the best and safest light; send
for the Hawaiian Electric Company and tell
them what you want.
We have a complete stock of everything in
this line and have just received a lot of the
very latest designs in chandeliers.

THE LIFE OF A WHEEL.

with Good Care Bicycle Should Last
Four Five Years.
The question is asked, "What is the
life of good wheel?" Much depends,
Of course, on the usage it receives TAX
ing for granted that it is not abused, it
may be said in general way that a
wheel should last four or five years
without losing the essential quality Of
easy running. There are lots of bicycles
of the 1892 pattern now in use. They
do not move so easily as wheels made in
1896, but that is more often on account
of improved methods of construction in
the newer wheel than because the old
one is worn out. This estimate does not,
of course, apply to racing wheels or the
wheels Of men who do centuries" every

sumption that the rider is one of the
moderate sort, who covers an average of
about 70 miles week during nine
months Of the yeer-that is, about 3, 900
miles in the course of the IL months.
In other words, a really good bicycle

WASHINGTON, Feb. 1.-The Senate
concluded its consideration of the gen.
cral arbitration treaty between the
United States and Great Britain. and
after a session of three hours agreed
by an almost unanimous vote to rec
ommcnd the ratification of the treaty
with amendments.
Ali but two of these amendments
are merely verbal. One of the two
which are essential strikes out the
clause providing for the selection of
King Oscar as umpire, leaving it to the
two powers to select an umpire when
one shall be considered necessary.
This vas agreed upon by the vote of 0
to /. Senator Gray being the minority.
The other important amendment is
an addition to Article 1 of the treaty,
reading as follows: No question which
affects the foreign or domestic policy
OF either Of the contracting parties Or
the relations of either with any other
state or power, by the treaty or other
wise. shall be subject to arbitration
under this treaty, except by special
agreement" This was agreed to by
the unanimous vote of the committee.
The six members who voted for the
treaty were Messrs. Sherman, Frye,
Davis, Cullon, Lodge aud Gray, and
those who voted in the negative were
Messrs. Morgan, Daniel, Cameron
and Mills. This vote wasHon financial
rather than on political lines. All of
the votes for the treaty We're cast by
men who had opposed silver in the
Senate and in the last campaign, while
those iii opposition, with the possible
exception of Mr.. Mills. were cast by
free silver men. 1t is understood that
the silver men hold that the ratifica-
ton OF the treaty would have a ten
dency to render this country subseryi-
ent to Great Britain.

terms that the Alaskan boundary

r.gR. EcKELs ON FINANCES.
rho Comptroller Gives His Views to the
House raaiing Committee.

tiOusc IdiHiHS AoibuiitApVs
WASHINGTON. Jan. 90. Comptroller
T.cklcs of the treasury department to-
Gay gave his views upon the financial
condition OF the country to the house
committee on banking and currency,
several bills introduced by members of
the house having been referred to him
sor his judgment.
While there is no doubt of the ne
cessity for changes in the governmental
financial system. Mi. Eckels said, the
public was disposed to attribute too
much of the existing troubles to the
Hack of monetary legislation. Over
trade, over-prodrction and extrava-
gancc in private and public expcndi-
lures, parClv induced by speculation,
were largely responsible for the
tl.y's business difficulties. The current
redemption of the deia5wl obligations
of the government was the chief prob
lem of the treasury. The funding and
cancellation Of these obligations so
that the maintenance of a gold reserve
would be no longer necessary, was the
most desirable policy; whether it was
the most practical n was another
question.
So far as the contraction of the cur
rency was concerned, Mr.. EcSels did
not think it would follow gradual re-
tirement of the grcenbacks, provided
credit was reasonably stable. Banks
could supply the needed currency or
| gold would come from abroad. The
pursuance of Secretary McCullough's
policy would have disposed of the
question.
Mr.. Eckels added: "!Any business
man who constantly redeems his notes
without retiring them and keeps them
out constantly will come to a settling
day that will break him. The chief
feature of 4 banking bill would be to
take from the government the issue of
credit notes. The banks can do this"
Banks conducted on practical banking
principles instead OF as speculative en-
tcrpriscs, he said, could satisfy the
currency needs of business. Before
the wal the banks had always fur
uished sufficient gold for business.

WASHINGTON, Feb. 1.-The House

purchasers under the mortgage fore
closure, Mr.. Powers of Vermont and
Mr.. Barrett of Massachusetts, e :

Mr.. Powers defended the conference
report against the assaults of a half
score of members, led by Mr.. Barrett.
The latter was particularly severe in
his criticisms, charging that a stock
jobbing operation was behind the
measure. This drew from Mr.. Powers
a reply in which he charged that Bos-
ton was the home of the railroad
wreckers, and with keen satire ridi-
culed the Massachusetts, member, and
continued that perhaps he was Inter

WASHINGTON, Jan. 29.-A crisis in
the debate on the Nicaragua canal bill
was reached in the Senate yesterday.
1t brought out an energetic statement
from Senator Sherman, in which he
foreshadowed a new treaty by which
the United States could build the canal
without the INTERPRETATION of a private
concession. The Senator declared that
this governmental execution of the pro-
jcct was the only feasible one, and
that all private efforts in the direction
had proved failures. Answering Nh.
Morgan's recent charge that England
inspired opposition to American con-
troll of the canal, Mr.. Sherman as

wholly without foundation. He added
Il handsome tribute to England, and
her institutions.
Mr.. Villas followed with a motion to
recommlt the canal bill to the commit
tee on foreign relations, a step which
Mr.. Morgan characterized as an insult.
The motion was changed SO as to make
the recommittal to the special commit
tee, of which Mr.. Morgan is chairman.
The Senate adjourned before a vote
was taken, and the Villas motion to re-
commit is pending.

Mrs. McKinicy's Inauguration Gown.

CHICAGO, Jan. 90 Details of the in
auguration gown iof Mrs. Mckinley
were finally decided yesterday. The
material for the gown has been Sc
lected, but not cut from the piece. 1t
is brocade of silver and white, the
combination producing a sort of gray
color. 1t will be lined with pale blue
satin. The gown is to be made rather
plain. The corsagc will have a fluffy
fichu of Point d'Alencon. Though the
neck will be made high with soft laces
yet it will have the decollete effect,
because of the d'Alencon fichu. The
sleeves will be long and finished with
4 full frill Of lace. The skirt, with it's
stately train, is to have several panels
of handsome brocade. The idea is to
have the gown not elaborate, but at
the same time rich in effect.
