FLYING AOhoBATS.
The Best Show Of the season.

The audience which was present
at the Opera House last evening
was justly enthusiastic over the per-
formance OF the talented artists be-
longing to the Jordan troupe.
In our somewhat long experience
we have rarely seen acrobats OF the
magnificent standing aud ability OF
the troupe now visiting Honolulu.
The word went forth, this morn
ing and when the people learned
OF the proficiency OF troupe there
was rush for seats, aud we expect
that the red light notifying the pub
lie OF full house will be in evidence
before 8 o'clock,
The wonderful feats Of the Jordans
can not be forgotten by those whose
good fortune it is to watch them
swinging from trapeze TO trapeze in
most psrilous manuer.
The lady who walks the wire, how
ever, is the star OF the company.
How she does it we are unable to
know, but she dances, skips and
romps about in manner that GER
tainly wo uld paraly ze even our an
nexation commissioners.
To GIl out the ent ertainment OF
the evening Burke, the we'll known
comedian, and Grace Forest intro
duced many comica sketches, and
succeeded in keeping the audience
IN a constant roar Of laughing.
The locsl hits in regard to the
Hagey Institute, friend Kirkpatrick,
and Others were received with a
loud "gulraw" from the people
present.
The Opera House ongbt to be fill
ed to its utmost capacity in the
future whenever the Flying Jor-
dams" appear. 1t is a good show,
and The INDEPENDENT says SO.

Timely Topics.
HonoLmLal, April 3, 1897.

The arrival of the last "Aus-
tralia" was greeted with sigh
of relief from the whole COM
munity. The unusually long in
terval between mails had made
people quite anxious, and ru-
mors of war and other political
disturbances were flying as thick
as leaves in Vallambrosa. The
encouraging news of the probable
passage of the Dingley bill, i'm
posing a duty on all foreign
Sugars while preserving for Ha-
waii nei the advantages of the
Reciprocity Treaty, gladdened
the hearts of all, planters as well
as merchants, who predict a new
era of prosperity and progress
for these beautiful Isles of the
Pacific. News was also brought
of the knocking out of Champion
Jim Corbett by his sturdy oppon-
ent Fitzsimmons.
The TRIBUNE BICYCLE
knocks them all out. Like the
Roman tribunes Of old, it stands
on a pinnacle of fame, elevated
above all others, and like Fitzsim-
mons it beats all the other
Champions.
The '97 MODEL is the acme
of perfection in wheels; it has
no equal. We received a num-
Der Of them by this "Australia"
and can furnish them in Black,
Royal Blue or Maroon.
The Sager Pneumatic Saddle
is recognized as the best for ease
and comfort; no disease of the
spine or jar to your nerves if
you ride this saddle.
The STODDER PUNCTURE-
LESS TIRE is impenetrable by
glass, nails, thorns, pins, ETC.,
and yet it retains all its elastic
and resilient qualities. Every
Tire guaranteed for one year.

Lemarchand's boneless sar-
dimes go well at lunch-we've
had such continuous run on
them that we have been forced
to duplicate our last large order.
Our present stock may not last
until the next arrives.
The whole world boasts of the
jams, preserves and pickles put
up by Crosse & Blackwell and
j. Il. Morton. Our stock con-
tains everything put up by these
well-known firms. The last lot
arrived by the Routenbeck and
are absolutely fresh.
We have goods from the
French factories that commend
themselves. Lemarchand's high
grade mackerel in oil is one of
them. These are timed in the
same manner as his famous sar-
dimes and are a rare delicacy.

The INDEPENDENT is satisfied that
the following, taken from a review
of Mr.. Cleveland's presidential
career, will meet with the endorse
mont OF all trae hearted aud public
spirited Americans who are not con
trolled by the personal selfishuess OF
a greed for wealth, but are inspired
by genuine patriotism and the deep
rooted love OF country.
Mr. Cleveland began his second
term as President 10y preventing the
contamination ola great wrong to
the people Of this country. He
found pending in the Seuate treaty

tector OF the new republic" of Ha
waii The treaty was the work OF
schemers whose object was to unite
Hawaii with this country, either as
a Territory or Sta'e, or as = county
Of California. 1t was an official re-
sponse to Muster Stevens's land.
grabbing despatch that "the Ha-
wsiian pear is now fully ripe, and
this is the golden hour for the United
States to pluck it," MIR. Cleve-
land did not believe either in
in the establishment OF a protector
ate or in annexation, aud therefore
he withdrew the treaty. He believed
that the revuiuliouists had been
aided by the American marines, aud
that the United states ought to undo
its wrong aud make reparaton. His
solution OF the Hawaiian problem
saved this country from deep dis
grace and irom the commission OF a
crime to the like OF which, according
to our Jiogo friends, England is SO
prone that general arbitration
treaty with her would be OF doubt,

The change OF heart OF our "best
government these islands ever had"
as witnessed by its organ, the Advrr-
tiser, this morning, in its editorial
on "The japanese Attitude" is only
too easily understood. After send
ing the hoodoo, persona mon 0ratl
Thurston, to Washington with
scare up his sleeve, to force the hand
Of President Mckinley as to the an
nexation Of Hawaii, to the fleet that
Japan had political designs upon
the autonomy OF this "fuuny little
republic" it now takes water. Since
Mr.. Thurston's miserable failure to
scare, the "hest government has
had its eyes opened, by the sugar
interest, to tho fact that it will not
do to offend japan lest source Of
labor supply be cut off. SO now the
Government orgar hastens to say:
"On the contrary" the Japanese
Government "has studiously, care
fully, and honestly absta aimed from
taking any measures whatever to-
wards securing any political control
Of these islands"

SATURDAY, APRIL 3, 1897.
FROM WASHINGTON

Extracts from the letter OF lady
OF high social standing to relative
in this city:
"The two men who represent your
very doubtful republic in Washing
ton have found the place grow very
frigid since the arrival OF your out
ragged Queen. They have found the
Corps Diplomatique, the officials of
the Administration and the ladies
Of the Haut ton to have suddenly dew
eloped marble hearts. The wicked
abuse which the frat annexation
commissioners, that persona non 9ruta
the uncouth Thurston, and latterly
Hatch, Hastings aud wife have heap
ed upon your dethroned Queen,
representing her as an ignorant
heathen woman, have been utterly
dispelled by the appearance OF the
"heathen" herself, Very few have
been permitted to see her so far, |
among the happy number, and
Washington is charmed with the
grace, dignity and intelligence OF
this woman, once queen aud still a
queenly woman in spite OF the dis
reputable abuse that has been heap
ed upon her, l am sorry to say, by
my fellow countrymen. Shame on
our American sisters who, forgetting
their honorable nationality and the
noble spirit of '76, could have joined
with traitors and wrote such sour
rilous letters to the American press
in abusive denunciation OF Queen
and a woman who appears to be
many times their Christian superior
for she has not one word to say in
recrimination OF those who have
abused her and, under the cover OF
the American flag, outraged her and
her people who trusted to American
honor. Some of our ladies have
gone 80 far as to suggest an organi-
zation to compel the President to
allow the women of America to blot
out the evil spot on Americas es-
cutcheon, and carry Queen Liliuo-
kalani back in triumph to Hawaii.
Washington society votes that our
American brothers and sisters in
Hawaii are bad lot aud we repudi-
ate them. Mr.. - is completely
dumbfounded at the difference in
the actual character and the malici-
ously reverse picture which was
painted by the emssaries of your
usurpers, He will draw these con-
trasts and will denounce the authors
OF crime against Christianity and
civilization. More than ever has the
proposition OF these queer gentle
men in Washington to annex Ha-
waii to America become unpopular.
The women OF America will resist
to the last any proposition to fur
ther blur our national honor by an
nexing a little country that was
stolen from the people by mob of
robbers. If any more specimens of
American degeneracy come to Wash.
ington they will meet with a very
cold reception. 1t is not with us a
question of Democrat or Republican
but true blue Americanism, and if
our men will not uphold American
honor the women will"

The virtuous organ Of the "best

brave words spoken on behalf Of a

deceit. The memorial to the Presi-
dent of the United States signed

tissue OF falsehoods. The sophistica.

Desiring to heal the breach that
SENS to be widening between the N.
g. FL. and the Executive, we have to
say that the non-appearance Of the
President at the "pow WOW" that

to the fact that the Presidential

the bearer of il was summing himself
at Diamond Head, where the trade
winds we're blowing through the said

this aud nothing more.
