Street Paving.

Paving Piikoi street is certainly
great public improvement just at
present. The pedestrians find the
street crossings rather primitive, but
very little complaint is heard. Peo.
pie appreciate that street paving is
good thing. The torn-up condi-
tion of the streets, however, has not
prevented G. j. Mccarthy from de-
livering the celebrated Rainier Beer
regularly. The consumption Of
Rainier Bottled Beer for family use
is growing larger every day. Phone

How Many Accidents

Honolulu, NoU. 92, 1897
are caused annually by de-
fective harness? Many lives
and much valuable property
are lost and damaged almost
daily through the selection OF
imperfect horse gear.
The only preventive is to
select your harness from deal
ers of experience, men who
test before they buy and can
consequently guarantee what
they sell and by judicious
selection place it on the mar
ket cheaper than others.

One Christmas with a fine
stock made us brave, so this
year we have "rpread our
selves" At Christmas time
we want to give more of our
friends presents than we
thought of during the year.
Don't "blow yourself" so that
you will feel the reaction, but
get something pretty and use
ful-genuine, even if not
grand.
Watch for the announce
ment of our opening, as we
will have the finest assort-
ment of goods suitable for
presents ever shown in Homo
lulu.

Governor Budd of California is
also grateful to God, and the fellows

notices that another year has gone

call for thanksgiving prayers:
Thursday, November 25, A, D.

public thanksgiving. On said day
let the people of this State give
thanks to Almighty God for the
manifest blessings enjoyed by us

with our thanks such aims as our
hearts may dictate and our purses
allow.

Concert Programs.

Librarian Cruger # 5 .usa's band has
sent the McGinties ounch OF the
Mani attain beach programs being given
by the famous concert band. 1t might
be supposed that with such shifting,
varying mercurial aud ence as is found
around Coney 1slard bandstand,
the highest and t'ashie9t kind of
music would be called for. Consequent
ly i5 is with some surprise to fiji that
the SOusa programs are as heavy as
the most ardent lover of the higher
grades of music could desire Such clas-
sic writers as Beethoven. Mendelssohn.
Donezetti, Mozart, Bach, Haendel,
Schubert, Schumann, Wagner, Mas
senet, Goldmarck, Grieg, Goddar d,
Mascagni, ST. Saens, Ru III stein, Ros-
SIM, and other noted composers are
| being play d to the Intense gratiti-
cation of the Coney Island throngs, and
| it is note d that Wagner is prime
favorite. Even the lighter forms of
music given are very choice, be ng Gull
ed with care from the best operate and
| lyric work. 1t may be truthfully said
! that Sousa sets the pace, and
a comparison with the programs he
gave four years ago shows that he has
| led the American public a steady pace
| upward along educational lines. So
that the "howl' now, when SOusa
plays, is not for vaudeville, but for the
very highest grade of orchestra music.
AS public educator, John Phillip
Sousa is man after the heart of the
late Samuel BOwies, of the Springfield
Republican. Mr.. Bowles never be-
lieved that the public taste should lead
man, but that the trLe leader of men
should set the pace and bring others
up to his high standard. When once
man has acquired taste for fine mu-
sic, and IL has been shown that this "a
QUESTION is matter OF time and pa
thence he will never want to return to
the musical flesh pots of the vaudeville
Heshbon. There is satisfying, graft
| flying influence in the higher compost
lions that the lower standard can not
give.
1t is believed that the Solsa pro-
grams rom Couey Island will influence
| the manaZement of the McGIn1y and
Fort Bliss bands to reach out for the
higher walks of musical endeavor. The
local public is slowly but surely catch
log on, and the good work will pay in
time-and it wont be a very loog time
| either.

He Got Along"

A record Of the ways in which out

keep alive in large cities would touch
and shock many persons who have
never given a thought to these poor
waits.
A little boy but nine years who was
brought to a charitable institution in
Boston gave the matron the following
account of how he had "gOt a o. g. for
a week after his mother had died, and
after his drunken father had deserted
him:
ooh, got along" he said The
hardest thing was to get warm place
to sleep nights"
Wv here did you sleep?"
"Well, we lived out in RoXbury, and
knowed of a place out tha, way where
man kept three pigs n a real warm
and snug pen, and l crept in there and
slept three piehts?'
"You slept with the p gs?'

But the fourth night when l went out
there found that the man had NOV d

The p or Lttle fellow made no com

would have done, and gave NO though

To Drive Away Nermin.

copperas and covering the stones and
rafIerS in the cellar with it. In every

the copperas, and scattered it in the
corners of the floor. The result was
u complete disappearance OF rats
and mice. Since that time not a
