Hawaiian
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 mean
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:
"Give me figures for wiring my house, and
want it done at once; no more lamps for me-
Last night lamp tipped over and it came
so near setting fire to the house and burning
nv children and / take no more risks"
This is the sentiment of quite 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 wall.
We have complete stock of everything in
this line and have just received a lot of the
very latest designs in chandeliers

About three weeks ago while riding

were discovered he was Francionis
debtor to the extent of $50 in money
and many other obligations.
Philip Schwarz, a store keeper, of Old
Forge, sued Andrew Gural for an even

The case of Frank Wheeler against
John and Catherine McAndrews was
concluded at 2.3O o'clock yesterday af-
ternoon and Judge Archibald then called
up the case of Mary Lally against Mary
Moran and her husband, Frank Moran.
This case comes from Old Forge and
grows out of a dispute over the own
ership of a lot of land on William
street, in Smithfield. The plaintiff al
leges that she and Mrs. Moran bought
the land Jointly for $3.50, each paying
one-half the purchase money. 1t was
agreed that they should improve 1T and
Jointly enjoy the results.
Mrs. Lally looked after the securing
of tenants and collecting of rents from
1887 the time of the purchase, until jan
uary l, 1885, when it is alleged the de-
PENDANTS, by fraud and collusion, in
duced the tenants to pay the rent to
them, and since then Mrs. LallY has re-
ceived no returns from the property.
She now asks court to restrain the de-
PENDANTS from selling the property as
she alleges they contemplate and COM
pei them to reform the deed which they
hold so that it will acknowledge her
one-half interest.
WAS ONLY AN AGENT.
The defendants aver that the parol
agreement which Mrs. Lally alleges
never took place and that the only in
terest she ever had in the property
was as an agent to look after the rents.
Attorneys C. Comegys and John II.
Bonner represent Mrs. Lally and Attor-
neys !. II. Burns and M. ]. Donahoe ap-
pear for the Morans.
The attorneys for the Providence
and Abingdon Turnpike company made
a motion in open court yesterday to

to condemn the road and free it from

TWO DEGREES CONFERRED.
Two degrees only were conferred in
full. The work of the other ten degrees
was exemplified by Recorder Pierce
and they will be conferred upon the
postulants periodically till all have
been conferred.
The recess was taken ct just ~
o'clock and for an hour the Sir knights
regaled themselves with the best the
season affords at Mitchelrs dining
rooms on Washington avenue. At 1
o'clock the work was resumed and it
was thought it would be half-past four
or five o'clock this morning before 1t
would be concluded.
The addition of these siXty-three
members gives Anthracite commandery
a total membership of two hundred and
fifty-two. The fact that it was organ
lied only last November and that it has
had unusually depressed times to con-
tend against makes it's growth very re-
markable. 1t is even now one OF the
foremost Communicates of the state
and it is expected that by the time it
is a year old IL will be. the peer of the
strongest of them. There is another
commandery on the West Side and one
in process of formation on the South
Side. This latter is to be instituted
June IL.
The annual convention of the grand
commandery Of Pennsylvania was held
at Sunbury during the early part of
this month. The reports then showed
that the order in this state has gained
2,2G5 members during the year and had
on it's rolls q total membership of 1878.
This membership is comprised in 101
communicates located in seventy-one
| different places and scattered through
| out thirty-two counties. The order is
| also established in sixteen states and
| the District of Columbia and Canada.
IT'S AN OLD ORDER.
The knights of Malta is a charitable
| and religious order which dates its
| birth in 104S in Jerusalem and claims
| to be the most ancient knightly order
in existence, being the direct and legit-
innate descendants of the illustrious re
ligious and military order of the middle
ages, the name of which it bears.
It's membership is confined to Prot
estants hut it is by no means intoler-
ant 1t was transplanted to this coun-
try from Scotland in 1870 and in 1884 q
grand commandery was organized here
Since that time its growth has beer
most rigorous and today it is one of the
strongest and most influential secret
societies in the United States.

HORNEY BORROWED TWO DOLLARS.
Then He Adopted n New Method of
Avoiding PAYMENT.

George Horney, of Marshwood, was
before Alderman Millar yesterday af-
ternoon on a charge of obtaining money
under false pretenses and assault and
battery. Mrs. Mary Thomas, also of
Marshwood was the prosecutrix. From
the testimony given at the hearing it
appears that last April Horney bor-
rowed 50 from Mrs. Thomas. Last Sat-
urday she demanded payment and it
was refused.
Mrs. Thomas was angry and in leav-
ing Horney's house she slammed the
door with such right good will that a
small mirror was Jared from a shelf
and broken. The mirror was worth
about 25 cents, but Horney fixed its
value at 500, and had Mrs. Thomas
arraigned before Justice of the Peace
Cummings on a charge of malicious
mischief. She was held in $500 bail
for her appearance at court.
Saturday night Mrs. Thomas went
to Horney's house and offered to re-
place the broken glass, Horney put her
out of the house and assaulted her.
He was required by Alderman Millar
TO furnish bail on both charges for
his appearance at court.

NEIGHBORS AT WAR.
Mrs. KeiIerman SAYS Some Caustic
Things About Mrs. KauHsky.

Mrs. Gwen Kellerman, OF the South
Side, was arrested Monday night by
Special Officer Mink and held in $500
bail by Alderman Storr. of the Nine
teenth ward, for her appearance at
court, on a charge of assaulting and
battering Mrs. Christine Kauffsky.
At the hearing Mrs. Kellerman relat-
ed a good deal of ancient history about
Mrs. Kauffsky. That woman, she said,
is now living with her fifth husband,
she further remarked that 1t had been
Mrs. Kauffsky's boast that when she
wants to get rid of her fifth spouse
she can send him to Jail as she has
his predecessors.
To these charges the prosecutrix
made no reply. The Kellermans and
Kauffskys reside in the same house on
the South Side
