In many parts Of "the land of
the free and the home of the
brave" at this time of the year
building operations are suspend
ed, and every man has his eye
on the coal dealer while watch
ing the water pipes showing a
tendency to freeze up. In Homo
lulu where spring is four sea-
sons in the year, carpenters may
work inside or out.
The unusual operations Of the
past year have had depressing
effect upon edge tools, for like
everything else-they give way
with too constant use We have,
in view Of the prospective de-
mand, made a big buy of the
finest grade Of tools obtainable
in eastern markets; they are
what carpenters and machinists
need all the time and when buy
ing the best they get that which
lasts longest and obviate the
necessity of "breaking in."
We have the Millers Falls
Company ratchet brace, with
drill attachment. The Elkin's
saw file. Bailey's adjustable
blade, wood and iron base planes,
Steel tape measures, guaranteed
to be accurate. Two-foot rules
in ivory and bound with Ger
man silver. Olmstead's inn
proved mitre boxes. The "New
Rogers" foot power scroll saw
with drill and emery attach
ments, These goods are all
guaranteed first-class.

The February Term Opened.

The February term of the Circuit
Court, First Circuit, Hon. A, w.
Carter, presiding Judge, opened
with the customary formaities and
a large attendance Of the Bar at 10
o'clock this morning. The Calendar
is quite lengthy one and contains
several important and interesting
cases. 1t is, however, especially
noticeable for the large number Of
divorces upon it; there being no less
than twenty. In connection with
this subject we call attention to an
article on our first page, which may
prove interest 10 many readers.
During the morning session the
Calendar was read over. In
seven cases the Attorney General
entered nolie prosequi. One OF the
most notable was the assault and
battery case against M. A. Gonsalves
formerly referred to in our columns,
An unimportant liquor case is on
trial this afternoon and TO morrow
morning the Houghtaiiing liquor
case will be heard.

2 Very P,essan and Successful En-
tertaipmApt.

Miss Grace Richards must feel
pleased at the success Of Saturday
evenings complimentary concert
given to her by her numerous friends
1t was q decided treat to all lovers
Of good music. The numbers we're
splendidly rendered by all. Ono Of
the rare pleasures was d duet be-
tween Miss Clymer at the piano, and
Prof, Yarndley with his soul stirring
violin OF which he is a master. 1t
puzzles many, who are accustomed
to see furioso gesticulations with
this delicate instrument, to learn
how he permits the strings to speak
for themselves with apparently no
effort on his part. Only true must
clan welded to his art with an in
strument that loves him eau procure
his tones. AS usual Mrs Montague
Turner's voice was as pure and fresh
and sweet as ever, and the hearty
encore demanded was richly de-
served. We regret we have not
space to refer to the other parti-
cipauts who so meritoriously won
recognition at tho hands of those
present to all OF whom they gave
pleasure and delight

LEWIS & co.

In an establishment like
ours so many things for the
table may be found that it is
difficult to make selection. We
make an effort to secure only
the best obtainable and the re-
suit is, that our list of customers
is large.
We have genuine Scotch her.

excellent. An entirely new arti-
Gle to this market is concentrated
Tomatoes, Golden Pheasant
brand. Lewis & Co.'s Maltese

found in Honolulu but we have

The City Feed Store.

AS through some unwise dispense
ton of Providence we do not grow
wheat for our own consumption, or
sufficient grain and hay for our cat
tie, a very large import trade of
these articles has developed. Among
the several prominent firms embark
ed in this line, none can excel the
City Feed Store, Larry Fl. Dee e. Co.
whose convenient place OF business
is at tho corner of Beritania and
Punchbowl. They deal on strict
business principles and when a
patron is made, he is retained, as L..
II. Dee e. Co. invariably keep on
hand only the very best stock of
Flour, Hay and Grain. All horse
men who have tried their specially
Livermore Valley hay never change

Narrow Escape.

Last week six Hawaiians went out
in their canoes from Kahaluu, Koo-
laupoko on fishing trip. While 81
miles from shore, the heavy Kona
gale, also felt in Honolulu, struck
the fishermen and finally they were
forced to abandon their canoes be-
ing unable to use their paddles.
They sought safety in swimming
and fortunately all reached shore,
more dead however than alive

Our Chinese Colony Celebrate their
Gladstone New Year with Feasts
and Fireworks.

GladSome new rear Win FeastS
and Fireworks.
There is no necessity to explain
to the Honolulu people the meaning
Of Chinatown being beautifully
illuminated last night, the evening,
night and early dawn disturbed by
millions OF crackers, bombs and
other fireworks, and after sunrise
the display of the gaudy and gro
tesque dragon vainly endeavoring
to swallow the ruddy moon while he
twists his tail Into the most comical
attitudes.
No! we all know that our Chinese
colony is celebrating their New
Year. Their debts are all paid up,
their stores closed except to their
hosts OF visiting friends, the preda-
cious small boy and the professional
"bummer," who will endeavor for
once to get full meal and a hogs
skin distended with liquor, in order
that he may enjoy wallow in the
gutter or a snooze in the "tank."
On every other day of the year we
are all supposed to be anti-Asiatic,
and to say and do the unkindest
things against our Chinese friends,
to whom we really ought to feel
grateful for many things, but then
gratitude after all is only senti-
ment and must give way to self in
terest. But to day, we all, from the
highest TO the lowest, bow down in
kindly frie ndship and cordial recog-
milton of their better qualities be-
fore our Chinese friends, and with
one heart wish them, as they wished
us on our celebration day, "a very
happy new year" and many Of them,
and more especially to their little
cosmo politan children and to those
who take such a deep interest in
their education.

The snobbish aristocracy of New York City are rejoiced at the mo- tority given them by the newspa- pers through the medium of ban quet to cost 3O0,0OO$.

The turning down of Fred Dubois by the legislature of Idaho will not give the people of the country an exalted opinion of the new demo- cratic populistic combine. Dubois bolted the republican national con- vention last June and supported William J. Bryan for the presi- dency, but this fact did not deter this mongel outfit in their determi- nation to retire him from the United States senate. If his successor was a more able man no one would complain, but the opposite is the case. Senator Dubois is a forcible talker and a learned scholar and Idaho and the whole country will regret his retirement from the up- per house of congress.
