The sIugger Literary.

If John l.. Sullivan gets nc
reply to his challenge to Fitzsim-
mons rs a prize-fghter he ought
to challenge John j. Ingalls, as
a ring reporter. A careful com
parison of the recent writings of
each puts the Boston litterateur
several descriptive rounds ahead.
Nothing that the gentleman from
Kansas ever wrote quite compares
with Sullivsn's tender passages
about the inspiring influence of
woman, as shown in Fitzsimmons'
quick response to the advice Of
his excited wife to shit the hound
in the ribs-never mind his jaw"

Office safe, was n time when there
was more need OF an independent
press IN Hawaii than there had
been for some time before or has
been since. That was the Adver-
Users haymaking time, when il
had a pull availing to get its
then editor salary in an
utterly useless labor commission.
Does the Advertiser now, how
ever, not give away the solution of
its sudden transformation from
an automatic official organ into
an apparently highminded tribune
of the dear people, in the follow.
ing words:
1t may be running the govern
ment on business principles to
manage it as sugar plantation
is often run by the manager and a
few directors, with no personal
interest in political affairs taken
by the stockholders, so long as
some relative has a lucrative posi-.
ton, and no interruption occurs
in the regular flow of cash divi.
dends.
The Advertiser appears as Que
OF the stockholders who do take
an interest in political affairs.
One of its near relatives--its re-
puted controlling owner-has a
lucrative position. Thus its
interest in public concerns
is quite explained by itself.
Surely there is no con.
nection, though, between the acid.
ulated perspiration of the Adver-
tiser this cool morning and the
charges of Dame Gossip mplicat
ing the IucrativeIy positioned rel
alive in making farce of the
quarantine that unfortunately
cages his throbbIng indisppnsa-
bleness. If such should be the !
case it is pity in being a prema-
ture display of pettiShness that
will do the relative in lucrative |
position no good. For the Board |

Have You
An Account ?

This is a serious question,
one at which some folks take
ofense, yet statesmen are under
the necessity of asking it.
Some folks deal near home,
settle infrequently, never in
vestigate to see whether they
pay more than they should and
too often allow their accounts to
60 long over due. II you don't
care what the family expenses
are it's a poor way to do if you
want to leave your children in
atfiuent circumstances when
you are gone. Now it is quite
an advantage to have an open
account at Il weIl-known house,
who can execute your order
promptly. Often persons say
they don't want an account and
will pay in few days. But
we cannot keep memoranda of
charges; it isn't safe or good
business. The stock found in
ordinary stores is usually stale,
uninviting and inferior, while
the stock in our store is turned

A PROPER DELEGATE.

Mr.. Damon will worthily rep.
resent the Government of Hawaii
at the Diamond Jubilee celebra-
ton in London. Being a broad
gauge man he will have SYM
pathy with the unparalleled event
which will enable him to enjoy it
thoroughly. AS An observant
man, and one with an eye to the
practical, the Minister Of Finance
may also be expected to more
than earn his expenses, in obtain
ing rich store of new ideas
gathered both in the United
States and the United Kingdom.
The sea voyages outward
will give him leisure to per-
feet his plans for acquir-
ing fresh knowledge, while
those homeward will avail
similarly for arranging and digest
ing the acquired facts, marshaling
them into effective array for
@ohomGs .! public rcfvrn AID in
provement at home. In short,
Minister Damon's projected tour
abroad is just what he needs to
top oil his many qualities of eff
cient craftsmanship. 1t he be able
to carry out his admirable fund
ing scheme, either in America or
England, that alone would be
triumph to make his fame rs
public man perpetual in the au-
mails OF these Hawaiian Islands.

Obituary..


Hubert A. Wickard, son of S. A.
and Dora Wickard, was born in Sum-
ner Co. Kan, Sept. 20, 1873 and de-
parted this life at Channte, Kansas,
Feb. 5, 1897, aged, % years four months
and six days.
He was young man of good bust
ness qualifications and promise until a
little more than two years past, when
he was stricken down with severe
illness which resulted in partial and
finally total paralysis. For few
months after the beginning of his i'll
ness, there seemed to be some hope of
his recovery, and no pains or expense
were spared to restore him to his
health, but death had marked him as
a victim, and for weeks neither he nor
his friends entertained any hope for
his recovery.
During his entire sickness, he bore
his suffering as but one of almost iron
nerve could do, and until few months
before his death continued to hope
against hope, that his former strength
and vigor might be restored, but fl
nally while at a health resort in Wis
consin, being convinced that his days
were numbered, his greatest desire
was to return to Chanute where he
might die at his own home, surround
ed by his relatives and friends. After
returning he seemed to revive some
what, but soon began growing weaker
and for some weeks before he died,
could only make his wants known by
means of an alphabet placed before
him and having the words he desired
uttered spelled out. Never did a young
man have better care, by parents and
friends, and the latter included the
town of Chanute; but death finally
came and relieved Elm of his suffering.
The funeral was preached at the Bap-
list church by Rev. G. w. Stafford,
the Nj. e. Minister and Bert's favorite
pastor. The burial services were con-
Quoted by the knights of Pythias OF
which he was a member. Another
young man has thus, in the forenoon
of life, when life seems most dear
been called to his long home.
While his long illness and death
have been a severe blow to the family
and friends and many are in mourn
ing and yet "they mourn not as those
who have no hope, but they confident
ly expect to meet their loved one in
that home where sickness and sorrow
and separation are not known, and
where friends never say goodbye.
Isaac Brockway died at his home in
the Fourth ward last Saturday morn
ing at seven O'Clock, aged, SO years
Mr., Brockway had been i'll for some
time but his infirmities came princip'
ally from old age and though confined
to the house for some time, ne mao
not been confined to his bed. He
went TO bed as usual Friday night, but
when he was called to his breakfast
Saturday morning he failed to respond
His daughter went to his room and at
once saw something was wrong; she
endeayored to tnrn him on his side,
but his breath had left him and he
was dead. He died as he had lived,
quietly and at peace with the world.
The funeral services were held at the
family residence, Sunday at 2 O'Clock
p. M, conducted by the Rev. G. w.
Stafford and the remains laid to rest
in Elmwood cemetery.
