SOME PROGRESS MADE.
Senate Committee on Foreign Relation
 Considering Hawaiian Report.

Washington, December 1.-The senate committee on foreign relations made some progress today with the bill reported by the Hawaiian commissioners for the govern ment of the Hawaiian islands, but ad- journed until next Monday without complet- ing the work. Senator Turpie has sug- gested a great many verbal technical amendments, which were not generally im- portant in themselves, but all of which re- quire discussion on account of their possi- ble bearing. Many of the suggestions re- lated to the grammatical construction of the bill and others to the details of the law itself and a number of his suggestions on these lines have been adopted. The most material change made today is one striking out the provision of the commission bill which empowers the supreme court of the territory to pass upon the election of mem- bers of the legislature and imposing this duty upon the territorial senate and house. Senators Turpie and Mills both made strenuous objection to the provision as re- ported by the commission on the ground that it was contrary to the American method and an innovation which should not be encouraged. The supporters of the com missions report yields after some contro- versy to save time and promote the pro- gress of the measure. Judge Frear, of the commission, and member of the Hawaiian supree court sat with the committee today in an advisory capacity

THE GREAT
 SALE OF PIANOS
 C. BU th6 J6SS6 French Piano Company Continues. SEVERAL STEINWAYS AND CHICKERING'S And Mdnu Other Fine Pianos Have Been Sold to HdDpu Pur-
 GhdS6rS.
SEVERAL STEINWAYS AND CHICKERING'S

The musical public of Birmingham are competent judges of fine musical instru- ments, and have backed their judgment by purchasing from the old reliable Jesse French Piano company, recognizing 1t as the leading music house of the south, and have unhesitatingly bought instruments strickly upon their merits. In offering the many pianos handled by us from the great Steinways and Chickering's to the Stars. Jesse French and Richmonds, we have not found it necessary to present great endorse ments. These instruments too well known throughout the world, and sell on their individual merits.
 We manufacture the three last named pianos, and defy competition. From fac tory to purchaser" is the way our instru- ments are sold, and we cannot have legiti msxe competition, because we save all the n;iddlemans profits, salesmen's commits sions, etc.
 Notwithstanding the great success attend ing our holiday sale for the past two weeks, having sold more than sixty pianos. we still have the largest stock in the city, replen- ishing the same from day to day, and now have the most elegant bargains in our store yet offered. Pianos from s1o0 to $150, which are serviceable and guaranteed. We keep  open until 10 o'clock at night during the en- tire holidays, and invite all our friends, prospective customers and the music-loving people generally to call and investigate. We can and will save you money.

IGNORANT BOsTONIANs

From Youths Companion. I The place was Boston. The district court room and the corridors leading thereto were crowded with applicants for citizenship. Where does the president reside?" the 5udse asked one of these. The man was an italian.
 "In Washington street.
 You may stand aside''
 { The Italian went away to brush up his history, and the judge said to French Canadian from Fall River: f"Who is the president of the United Stafes?'
 I Mckinley"
 If he should die. who would succeed him?"
 I His son.
 This man also went away sorrowful
 So did the man who said the president lived 'in Fleet street" and another who declared the presidents name was Byron :" and still another who asserted that the president was likewise governor of Massa- chusetts and mayor of Boston.

PETIT CONVICTED.
Fined $25 for Carrying OF the
Orpheum Carpet.

Antoine Petit, who recently picked
up and appropriated to his own use
a carpet belonging to the Orpheum
Theater which had been left temporar-
lily in the alley at the rear of that
place, was yesterday found guilty of
petty larceny and sentenced by Justice
Davis to pay fine of $50 or spend
twenty-five days in the County Jail
Petit testified that he was a rag
picker 'by profession and that he saw
the carpet in the alley early in the
morning. Several hours later he again
passed and the carpet was still there.
He went around in front to the lobby
of the theater to make inquiries as to
whether or not anybody claimed it, but
found nobody, and so concluded to take
the carpet, as he could make use of it.
Evidence was introduced corroboraI-
ing Pettit,s statement, but Justice
Davis was ihexorable, and intimated
that all larcenys looked alike to him. "
