DR.. SWALLOWS TRIAL.
A Denial of His Charges by the Differ
ent Witnesses.

n OF Ills tnafges Dy thP Diner
ent Witnesses.
HARRISBURG, March 2O.-Dr. S. c.
Swallow is on trial in the criminal
court on the charge of libel, brought by
Representative w. f. Stewart on be-
half of himself and the soldiers or.
phans' school commission. The usual
big crowd was in attendance, but moth &.
ing sensational developed. The alleged
libel was printed in the Pennsylvania
Methodist, of which the defendant is
editor and publisher. He made the
charge that the commission paid eight
fold more for articles than others could
buy them for"
A good part of the session was con-
sumed by the defense in endeavoring
to Quash the indictment. This failed,
and then there was a long fight in get
ting jury.
The witnesses all denied charges
made by The Methodist. They de-
scribed how supplies were purchased
for the schools, claiming that every
thing was gotten at the lowest market
prices. Captain Boyer has done most
of the buying since the commission
was organized in 1889. He said that
groceries were gotten from the leading
grocers of Pittsburg, Harrisburg and
Philadelphia. The perishable goods
are purchased by the superintendents
of the school Captain Boyer said tab
was kept upon them, and they were
compelled to make monthly reports of
everything purchased and the price
paid
Rev. j. A. Waters of Uniontown,
James +. Matthews of Hartford, and J.
M. Clark of the Scotland school, were
examined. They all denied the charges,
saying that they bought goods in the
open market and for the lowest prices.

Honolulu, Jan. Is, 1896.

The prophets are at work,
The public is told one day that
if we don't get annexed to the
United States the Hawaiian ISL
ands will go to the "demnition
bow-wow," and next day another
prophet arises and tells us that
we cannot get annexation under
any circumstances and that the
outlook for the abrogation of the
Reciprocity treaty is good.
While listening to these dire
prophecies we notice that the
world moves on and that the
people plod along as usual and
give and take into marriage and
perform other acts of routine.
1t is well, however, to be pre-
pared for the worst and all pru-
dent people should now exercise
the greatest economy in house
hold affairs. The parson, the
ring and brides gown are not
all that is necessary to establish
a household Other things are
wanted in Kitchen and Pantry.
Call at our stores and select your
kitchen furnitures which we
furnish at cheap prices and in
great variety. To-day we make
special mention of the GEM
ICE SHAVERS. These handy
implements will be found very
economical. Instead of breaking
the ice and wasting it, the shaver
will scrape the quantity you
want from the block in an easy
and convenient manner.
The Fish Scaler should also
be found in every kitchen. 1t
saves labor and takes the scales
off fish as easy and cleanly as
a barber takes the hair off your
husbands chin.
A call at our stores will con-
vince you of the wisdom in
buying from us.

THE BEGINNING OF THE END.

As the centuries trend towards
their closing years, it has hitherto
been the habit of nations TO have a
fight and to partially change the
political and economic status of
their relative positions. How will
it be whom the nineteenth century
passes into the twentiethi There
are small wars, and rumors OF
greater ones, facing us. Perhaps,
upon the lives of three sovereigns
depends the future fate of several
nations through the unleashing of
the dogs Of war.

Paul Neumann is back in Homo

attorney speaks about Guatemala in

especially dwells on the successful
coffee industry Of that South Amer
ican Republic. The progress OF
Guatemala is simply wonderful, says
Mr.. Neumann. The administration
under President Barras is highly
satisfactory to the people and it is
safe to predict his reelection. Mr..
Neumann stayed few days in San
Francisco on his way home but
heard nothing which could be con-
strued as promising for our annex
ationists. In fact Mr.. Neuman found
generally hostile feeling towards
Hawaii and is unable to state the
cause of such change in sentiment.
As far as Mr.. Neumann's business is
concerned he felt well satisfied and
although unable to speak shout the
details OF his venture he was ready
to say that everything was o. X.
