A visit to the Temple of Fash.
ion this afternoon disclosed to a
BULLETIN representative a weary
looking lot of clerks and one very
tired proprietor. Mr.. Silva and
his large staff of clerks have been
very busy for the last three days
remarking the immense stock
preparatory to the grand closing
out sale that opens tomorrow.
1--WE are just finishing up" said
Mr.. Silva, and very hard job it
has proven to be. Over $4,000
in dry and fancy goods has been
remarked in plain figures"
"Why plain figures 2" "Oh, so
the people won't have to be con
tinually asking prices on different
pieces of goods that will be dis.
played within easy reach of the
customer. Big discount! Well, l
should say SO; the largest ever
given in Honolulu, | am positive.
l have got to close out this stock,
as l am permanently retiring from
business. l readily realized that
the only way to make the public
buy was to sell cheaper than any
other dry goods firm in the city.
"My reduction? Twenty. five
per cent reduction on the actual
cost. No firm can do this and
continue to live, but can stand
it, as intend to leave Honolulu
for good, and permanently retire
from the dry goods business. The
white merchants trade in dress
silks, mems hats, shirts and other
gents furnishings is now mostly
done by the japanese. They can
buy cheaper than L can. In jap
an they pay less rent as rule,
hire cheaper labor, and in conse-
quence undersell the white mer-
chant. This is one of my reasons
for retiring. The other is that L
have private affairs in Portugal
that demand my personal atten-
ton. Come in tomorrow-if you
can get inside the door-and look
over the prices. You will say
that | am foolish, but these goods
have got to 60" 49,

JAPAN MOURNs AGAIN.
Death OF the Crown Prince Reported
by n. n. Peru.

Death OF the Crown Prince Reported
by n. =. Peru.
The following paragraphs are
from news column in the San
Francisco Chronicle Of March IS:
"The steamer Peru, which ar
rived yesterday from the Orient,
brings the news that the Grown
Prince of Japan is dead. The
heir apparent to the Japanese
throne, according to advices that
are considered authentic, passed
away at one of the palaces of the
regal family between Yokohama
and Kioto several days before the
sailing of the Peru, but for vari.
Gus reasons the fact has not been
publicly announced as yet. Japan
has Just recovered from month
OF mourning over the death of the
Empress 'Dowager, during which
period business was suspended
and festivities of all kinds avoid
ed. To inhict the whole empire
with another siege of grief and
mourning at this time has been
deemed inadvisable, and for that
reason, so the story goes, the
death of the Grown Prince is be.
ing kept secret for the time being.
Captain Day said that it was
reported in Yokohama that the
death of the Crown Prince had
completely Frustrated the EmperS
or, whose health has not been the
best of late. A rumor was circul.
ated that the Emperor also was
dead, but this was quickly aud
emphatically denied. One rumor
had it that smallpox had broken
ont in the Emperor's palace and
that the Queen Dowager and the
Crown Prince had both died from
this disease"
An inquiry has been made at
the Japanese Consulate General
in Honolulu about the rumored
death of the Grown Prince. No
official information has been re-
ceived by Consul General Shima,
mura, and he is strongly inclined
to believe that the rumor is untrue.

Destroyed by Demas,

A few months ago theTe was bare possibility of the upbuilding of the re- publican party in some localities in the south, but MT Mckinley has made any thing of the kind out of the question. The appointment of sevsral negroes to important offices where they will coma in contact with the southern whites has made the president very unpopular, even with those in this section who wei his friends less than a year ago.
 Perhaps the appointment of Demas in Louisiana was the most offensive of all. The corrupt negro politician is hated and despised by the whqt7 planters who recently went over to the enemy, and they are now ready to return to the democratic camp. The New Orl:ans Times-Democrat says of the situation:
 In the meanwhile the local republic ans are fairly gnashing their teeth over the blow and insult they received We publish number of interviews else where with prominent white republicans which show just what they fhnk on the Demas appointment. One of the re- publican ward clubs has notified the president that 1t will retire from the party if the appointment of Demas is not withdrawn, and MT. Mckinley is being su1focated with protests.
 One of the leading republicans in the state, man who has bean at the head of the party in many political battle, expresses the opinion that the Demas nomination will reduce the republican vote to 10000 in the coming election, and that the party will not elect a single delegate to the constitutional conven- tion. This seems highly probable. The republican party, made up of so many divergent and unassimilating elements, has been growing weaker ever since the last state electtsr. These elements have been drifting apart. The white sugar republicans have given their col ord brethren the cold shoulder, and now that they see that in MT. McKinley's es- timation the true republican party Ia the negro party and the true type of southern republicans is the corrupt ne- gro from St. John.
 MT. Mckinley has simply solidifed the southerni whites. and those who leaned toward republicanism last November are TOW heartily ashamed of their folly Hereafter the south will be solid and d=mocratic

Facts About Water.

It is only within the past three cen- turies that intelligent persons of the English-spealking race have had a good word for water as a beverage. It is natures drink. In the sixteenth century two or three English medical writers called attention to the remarkable fact that Cornishmen of the poorer class and some women of respectable standing drank little besides water and yet en- joyed good health. Water was con- demned as a drink for the old and fec ble. and the old English writers declared that it caused many diseases and weak ened the stomach. Many of these writers were the leading physicians of their time.
 It is quite likely that the people of the present day are too careless and even incorporate in the use of water. The Age-Herald's advice about boiling 1t should be followed whenever there is any doubt about its purity and whole some qualities. Some of the healthiest people in America do not drink gallon of water in a year, with the exception of what they get in coffee and milk.

Bales Con

The significance of the figures be- comes greater when it Is observed that while the consumption in northern mills in 1897 was but 5,422 more bales than in 1890 and much less than that in 1891 and 1892, the consumption in southern mills has in eight years not been less than that of 1890, and in 1897 was nearly double that of 1890.
 King Cotton is working out his own salvation, and these figures justify the belief that the cotton planters of the south are entering an era of good times. Under the prosperous conditions now in sight people will be able to buy more goods, and 1t Is not likely that cotton will be the only staple which will fail to feel the general rise in prices.
 The south is safe anyhow. No matter what may happen to other sections and countries, there will be from $500 900 to $400 000, 900 in gold poured into this region for the crop alone.

An Old Mans Ranfures.

Gen. Longsbrieeit has written an article. Like Caesar, this old warrior wields the pan as skillfuny as the sword. and like Caesar he is as much at home in the lists of love as in the arena of war. The sturdy general feels the weight of his 75 years as lightly as he did the bur dens of his youth. He says that he is ''seven1y-five years younger''--not old!
 He is still in touch with humanity. and likes pretty face, and wants the companionship of loving wife who will share his literary labors and take an interest in his vineyard, when they are not otherwise engaged. The great commander believes that he can make wide world could not equal. and he frankly says as much in his blunt, sol dierly way
 'All the world loves a. lover," and Gen. Longstreet and his bride will have plenty of well-wlshers. Some of the newspapegts have commented upon the disparity In the ages of the happy couple but 1t is nobody's business. man is as young as he feels, and as his wife counis him.
 The old general Is a wonderful char | acter. Fifty years ago he won fame at the battle of Molina del Ray, and he 1 flas been making history, off and on, 1 ever since. If we should have a brush
 would not be strange to see him again at the front. Give soldier plenty of gun powder and a little honey here and there, and there is no telling how long he will live and be at his best.

Wealth and Progress.

Speaker Reed has a striking article in the current number of The Illustrated American, in which he takes an optim- istic view of life, and sings the praises of wealth as factor of progress. Ac- cording to MT. Reed, wealth means edu- cation and the spread of intelligence, the broadening of the base of the irI.el- lectual efforts of the literary class, and large increase in their numbers. There was little leisure for writers and read CTS when men labored twelve or fifteen hours a day for bread alone.
 When the world was eteeped in poverty twelve and fifteen hours were as neces- sary as eight and ten hours are now to keep the wolf from the door. In these days men work fewer hours than they did years ago, and they work less each minute, and the sum total of human energy left is greater than the Isssening of the hours would indicate. Women have their tastes frightened. They have more leisure and more comfort The toilers have more money to spend for books and newspapers, and they can- not help picking up an education if they do any reading. The concentration of capital makes things cheaper.
 Machinery starts new industries, and makes places for labor in new fields. It does not permanently throw men out of employment, but it sometimes forces them to seek oi.her lines of work These are some of the points suggested by the Maine statesman in his glorffication or wealth as a civilizer. Some of his views are sustained by the facts of the situa- tion, but his onimism is the compla- cency of man who looks only upon the bright side of life. Mir Reed evil dently takes no stock in the poets coup let:
 'Ill fares the land to hastening ills
 prey,
 When wealth accumulates and men de-
 cay"
 And yet the poeE was right in his day, and he is not altogether out of date yet.

Worse Than Yellow Jack.

Yellow fever is bad enough, but our own endemic fever, typhoid. stays every year many more thousands, and it's pres ence is scarcely the subject of comment or remark. It is fever that grows out of decaying vegetation in the autumn, of excessive moisture in the soil, of damp cellars of cholzed or leaking drains, of dn part from the top. Drinking water and milk are perhaps the chief agents in conveying the poison of the widely dffused fever to the human system. tops, simply because mankind are care less and urcleanly in such localities as well. On the other hand, the absence of filth in districts affected wi h ma aria keeps typhoid fever at distance even in the auaumn season
 The prevailing scare from Ocean Springs will have some compensation If it causes an inspection of wells and springs, and drains and cellars and a general clearing away of filth wherever found. Clean streets and alleys in cit- ies. clean barnyards in the country. an operdng of choked drains, a cutting and burning of weedy growths, an airing of all apartments. close Inspection of school rooms--these and and cnany o.her puri- ficatiors of places of human habitation mean much in the lessensng of the ty- phoid rate. It is not too much to ex- suit of the prevalerib cleanliness on &C., count of the presence in another state of another fever.
 We do not consider typhoid fever a scourge, because 1t is not highly infec- tive, and because it rarely assumes an epidemic form; but the foe tha; in tenn

Try Arbitration.

President Dolan at the Pittsburg con ference last week, said to the miners:
 ''I would be, a scoundrel if I advised you to stay Out. The time has come when we must give up sentimentadsm and accept the operators terms. They are better than your officers expected. expected to get it. We thought if we got so cents we would be satisfied, but we forced thu operators to agree to ! cents more. For Gods sake, men, think of the thousands of women and children naked and hungry. I have the coura ge to stand here and tell you if you con- tinue it you will get whipped. We have begged all we can get from the public, and with no contributions we cannot keep up the fight"
 If his advice had been followed the re- cent bloody battle between a Pennsyl- vania sheriff and the strikers would have been avoided. The punishment of the sheriff, if he was too quick on trigger, win not restore the lives lost in the fight. It was a sad, unnecessary piece of business, and it should wake up the people to the importance of establish- ing system of arbitration which will regulate capitalists and their employers and prevent violent collisions
 No matter, what differences may ex- ist between capital and labor, the su- preme duty of the state is to maintain law, order and peace.

In the census year for 1SSs-sO, the deaths from typhoid fever in this country numbered 27,05s. This Is doubtless an approximar ton of the annual rate. All the deaths in this country in a century from yellow fever have not equalled a years loss from the other fever; and if typhoid fe- yer were fought with equal yigor and Intelligence, we would witness a sur- prictng saving of human life.

A WOODLAND SUMMONS.
By Thos. Dunn English.

By Thos. Dunn English.
 Maiden frank and free,
 Leave the town with me; Leave the city for the woodlands, For the fields of emerald corn, For the meads with running streamlets Singing praises to the morn; For the hills that bound the distance, Crowned with purple diadems; For the sunshine on the dewdrops, Decking trees and plants with gems
 Maiden sweet and fair,
 Young and debonair; Leave the city's smoke and hurry, Never-ceasing toll and pain, Noisy streets and noisome alleys. Love of gold and greed of gain. Where the soul is cribbed and cabined, Where the heart has lack of room, Where the ghosts of want and hunger Stalk around in robes of gloom.
 Maiden dear and free,
 Nature here we sec Nature in her robes of beauty, Glowing in her summer uress, Free from artificial letters, Free from sorrow and distress, Soothed by sound of running waters, Charmed by humming of the bees, Let us rest within the shadows, Of the grand prinlevai trees.

Samples From the East.

Argentina and perhaps the rest of the South American states propose to strike back at Dingleyism; at any rate the prospects of trade extension in those countries are very poor at present. But the millions in Africa, Persia and Arabia need coarse cotton goods, and the.r mar- chants are beginning to look to this country for them. They see that they can be manufactured cheaper here than they can be in England, and they pro- pose to buy at the lowest figures. They want such goods as almost any southern cotton milf can make to good advan- tage.
 But they want them in their own fash ions, and to suit their own tastes. So it becomes necessary that the southern mill proprietors should study the par ticular forms of their wants and this can now be done in the Philadelphia obtained many samples from all thu countries named.
 The fact that vie, In the south, intend to command the iron and cotton mar kets of the world, should never be lost sight of.
