JAps MAKE TROUBLE.
Eighty-One Unruly Laborers Are
Locked Up at Eva.

The Eva plantation is having trou-
Bile with some of the new Japanese
field hands. All the old laborers are
and have been very peaceful and well
satisfied. Members of the latest con-
signment have been unruly from the
time of their arrival. A luna had a
slight collision with new Jap yester-
day morning. The man was showed
so that he fell and one of his arms was
injured. Thereupon 100 of his friends
quit work and refusing to listen to
anything started for town to place
their grievance with the japanese lega-

HAD AN AUDIENCE
DIR. Alvarez Met Emperor
and Empress.
Unusual Ronors Extended to the
Leprosy Congress Delegates-Re-
ception by the Chancellor

It will be of interest to many to
know that letters from Mrs. Alvarez
who accompanied her husband to Ger
many, tell of much the doctor has
done since he left here.
Mrs. Alvarez says: "The delegates
to the leprosy congress had a reception
rendered them by the Chancellor,
Prince Furst Won Hohenlohe, which
was, considered quite an honor as it is
most unusual. However, they were
even more honored as they were given
an audience by their Majesties, the
Emperor and Empress, as well as five
of the young Princes, at Potsdam in
the new palace.
1.-THE Emperor and Empress were
both very gracious and each had num-
erous questions to ask about life in the
Islands. etc. Carriages provided by
the Government conveyed the dele
gates to and from the palace and train.
This honor was accorded the dele
gates in token of their position as men
of science-no ladies were present"
Mrs. Alvarez adds, Tomorrow we
leave Berlin for Paris where we will
stay a week or so until the doctor visits
the Pasteur Institute, in the interests
of his work in Honolulu. We will then
sail from Havre for New York.
Tonight we dine with Mr.. Glade's
family. We shall carry away very
pleasant recollections of Berlin and
especially of its genial and true-heart-
ed physicians and their wives, who
did much to make the stay of the dele
gates pleasant"

TIMELY TOPICS
NOVEMBER IL, 1897.

NOVEMBER II. 1897.
Are having
time in Honolulu just now.
So accustomed are we to
take up a daily paper and find
an account of another " OAR
ing Robbery" that it is quite
a disappointment after care
fully going through the news
OF the day to find no mention
of the usual crime.
Just who is responsible
for this state of things is an
open question. 1t is all very
well to throw reason to the
winds and accuse our police
force of incapacity, ETC., but
the true cause is to be found
nearer home. There are
many persons who would
not think of a criminal act,
were temptation not placed
in their way by the incau-
tious acts of many of our
citizens. ValuableS are al
lowed to lie about in all
places and at all times, and
no care whatever is taken to
secure them from curious
eyes.
The true remedy is in a
nutShell--or rather in a Safe.
The old excuse of too ex-
pensive" does not hold now
a-days. We carry a selection
of safes made by the first
manufacturers in the United
States in no less than 6 sizes,

serve the family jewels,
