AN INTERFERING PARROT.

consisted of the most emphatic cXpletives

captain passed by and glared at him on his
way to the postotlice and grocery combined,

During all that time the former lovers

The next morning the captain did not

and resumed at a breath his interrupted

Ten Good Reasons
why you should
Use Carter Lead

1st. The Carter White Lead is abso-
lutely pure.
End. The Carter White Lead will cover
one-fourth more surface and
thereby save you 20 per cent.
3rd. The Carter White Lead will last
much longer and look better
than any other paint.
4th. The Carter White Lead Company
is Independent Of all trusts.
9th. The Carter White Lead is much
whittier than any other lead
offered.
9th. The Carter White Lead is much
finer and superior for inside or
flat work.
18th. The Carter White Lead will take
more oil than any other lead.
Sth. The Carter White Lead is superior
in body.
9th. The Carter White Lead works
smoother under the brush

CARTE:
WHITE
LEAD
IS STRICTLY PURE,

The Carter White Lead Company
stands ready at any and all times by
practical tests to prove that the Carter
Lead will cover one-fourth more sur
face, and do it better, than any brand of
lead manufactured by what is known as
the old Dutch Process. and also to prove
its superiority in body whiteness and
durability.
We invite practical painters to make
independent tests by carefully measuring
surface and weighing the leods to be
tested and then comparing results.
which will in every instance prove that
The Hawaiian star. [volume] (Honolulu [Oahu]) 1893-1912, 1897-02-16
Carter Lead will cover one
fourth more surface

The superiority of Carter Lead is due
to improved methods and the putting
into use the very latest machinery by
which a perfect corrosion is obtained,
and, consequently, when you purchase
a key of Carter Lead you get keg of
Lead that is perfectly corroded.

FRONTAGE TAX QUESTION.
Ramsey COunty's Particular Trouble
Heard From Again.

The bill to repal the st. Paul water
frontage tax law, over which the Ram
sey county delegation has been at vari-
ance for some time, came up again IN
the house yesterday. Mr.. McGill, on
behalf Of the majority, reported the
bill for passage. 1t is supported by five
members of the Ramsey delegation,
and unon motion Of Mr.. McGin the bill
was placed on the calendar. That was
Tuesday. Yesterday the minority
brought in an adverse report and asked
that the bill be referred back to the
Ramsey delegation. The minirity are
Messrs. Scott, Johns, Martin and Snod-
grass.
A question Of courtesy to an absent
member Mr. McGill, caused some de-
bate, after which the bill was taken
from the calendar and placed on gen.
eral orders.
Mr.. Scott offered the following mi
nority report from the Ramsey county
delegation on H. F. TOT, being an act TO
repeal special laws affecting the city
of st. Paul and relating to water
frontage tax, make the following re-
port:
We cannot concur with the majority Of
our delegation in recommending the passage
of the bill and without giving our reasons
in extenso, we believe that the passage OF
the present bill would result In a serious in
jury to the financial interests of the city, and
impair credit Of bonds issued by the city in
the purchase of the waterWorks Of the city
of st. Paul, and that the repeal of the water
frontage tax will result in increasing the
water rate of the consumers of water in
said city. If this law is not repealed an i'm
mediate appreciate reduction OF water rates
is promised. Therefore we recommend the
bill to be indefinitely postponed.
Thomas B. Scott,
Henry Johns.
We dissent from the position taken by the
majority OF the Ramsey county delegation for
the reason that we believe we voice the
wishes OF the majority Of our constituents in
so doing and not for reasons given.

ONE MORE INVESTIGATION
Suggested In a Resolution by Repre-
sentative Kendall.

The house committee on insane hos
pitfalls has planned to take UP and in
vestigate the question of the arrest and
confinement in the insane hospital at
Fergus Falls of Frank HOskins, the
Pcpulist editor, who published charges
against the soundness of certain bank
ing institutions for which he claims
they put job up on him and had hirn
placed in the asylum. Mr. HOskins had
to bring his case away from his home
for fear that local influences would
deny him justice and his release from
the asylum was secured upon habeas
corpus proceedings in the Hennepfn
county courts.
Mr.. Hoskins had a bill int oduced to
expunge from the records of the asy-
Ium the notation of his confinement,
pay all costs and pay him $1,000 for
damages.
In pursuance to this. Mr.. Kendall, of
the committee on insane, introduced
the following resolution:
Whereas. a certain bill has been intro
duced in this house and referred 10 the COM
mittee on hospitals for insane, and

NEW YORK, March 31.-The battle ship
Iowa, bound for her official trial trip off
the New England coast. reached the New
York navy yard this morning, after a sue
cessful run from Philadelphia She will
be locked and cleaned for her speed trial

is 16 knots, with bonus of SOC, 900 for every

The Iowa was given three runs between

The trials were made under forced draught
with ordinary coal. The speed obtained on
the first and second legs was 15.20 knots an

necessity of keeping them always healthy

organs that make wifehood and motherhood
possible. It makes them healthy and
strong. 1t cures all weakness and disease.
Taken during the expectant period it in
sures a healthy baby and makes parturition
easy and almost painless. Women who
wish to know all about the Favorite Pre-
scription - should write to DR.. Pierce.

consul general at Havana; that he has not
been cabled leave OF absence to take effect
April Is, and finally that there has been
no change in the status of the consul gen

positively as above, that there is no inten-
ton of making any change in the consulate
general, in the near future at least. Gen.
Lee may be assisted in the task of watching

believed to be essential to the development
of the facts, but the position of Mr.. Day
in such case would be purely advisory.
