the "canteen" be abolished in our army, and 1t is interesting to our people to know that the Ceylon and India Tea as- sociation perfected plans to present to the United States army, through the proper channel, several thousand chests of Ceylon and India tea. It was deemed advisable, however, to consult the British government officials regard ing the matter and they took the view that such action might be construed as breach of government neutrality. While our army has been deprived of the tea, It is certainly pleasant to know that there is such a cordial feeling ex- isting between our people and the Qwn- CTS of one of the greatest industries in the world.

THE TERMS OF PE4CE

It appears that the reporters on duty at Washington got the peace terms about right. According to the state ment finally given out by the State de- partment the President does not now put forward any claim for pecuniary indemnity, but requires the relinquish- or title to, the island of Cuba, as well as the immediate evacuation by Spain of the island; the cession to the United States and immediate evacuation of Porto Rico and other islands under Spanish sovereignty in the West h. dies; and the like cession of an island in the Ladrones. The United States will occupy and hold the city, bay and harbor of Manila, pending the conciu- sion of treaty of peace which shall determine the control, disposition and government of the Philippines. If these terms are accepted by Spain in their entirety commissioners will be named by the United States to meet commits sioners on the part of Spain for the purpose of concluding a treaty of peace on the basis above indicated.
 If Spain doesn't accept these very moderate and reasonable terms Spain will be even more foolish than she has been. Probably she will accept them.

into the belt, the left was curved off like an eton to the side seam. white silk blouse set on white silk fiat yoke was worn beneath, the yoke showing above the cut-out neck of the canvas All through the blue blouse the gIint of white silk shone. Dainty white epaulettes extended from the yoke oyer the shoulders of the blue sleeves, and white silk stiffened cuffs turned back over the blue at the wrists, A boson's whistle fastened on silk cord swung about the neck. The skirt was elaborately trimmed with milliner's folds of white silk, and white silk petticoat gleamed through the weave of the blue canvas. A sailor cap of white silk was worn, set aslant towards the front till it presented only it's round flat top to the view.
 No one could quarrel with a pretty girl for such rig, but it wasn't bit "boaty." Neither was the rig present. ed here, though it displayed anchor trimming to assert it's purpose. Its material was blue linen, and the trim ming of skirt and bodice consisted of white linen folds stitched with dark blue. The anchors were white and ap- pliqued. Two rows of white buttons or namented the front, which turned back in revers and sailor collar of dark blue foulard dotted and banded with white Yoke and stock collar were also of blue foulard, and the three materials were combined in the sleeves. Pretty enough like the other, and sure to set off a pretty face and dainty figure most charmingly, but also sure to suggest, to critics at least, never -go-near-the- water boaters. FLORETTE.

FASHION NOTES.
Where Beauty Overcomes Utility.

The yachting dress of the season is much more ornate than has been pre- viously regarded as good taste. The usual sailor blouse is hardly recognize able this year. It is set on yoke and a silk under-bodice that is often part of the yoke. The result is usually att tractive, but to the real boat woman it is unsuitable. A really pretty bod ice seen on a girl pretty enough to match it showed a blouse of blue open canvas, It opened down the side of the front, and while the right side bloused

The dedication of the new Church of the Savior In Jerusalem will take place on October 31. Besides the Emperor William and his Empress, there will be present most of the German Protestant princes, as well as representatives of other Protestant courts (England and Holland have already accepted invita- tions), the Protestant cantons of Switzerland, etc. The band of the irn- perial yacht Hohenzollern, as well as the sailors chorus of the fleet, will con- tribute the music of the ceremony. The Emperor's retinue will number three hundred persons, and will travel on horseback and in carriages from Jaffa to Jerusalem, taking two days and two nights for the journey. They will all occupy tents, which will be fur nished by the Sultan from Constanti- nople, and the camp will probably be pitched northward from the gate of Damascus. The horses and carriages to be used will be brought from the inn perial stables in Berlin. The Turkish government is said to be displaying a feverish activity in improving the roads that the Emperor will have to nSP.

The iron and steel production of the current year bids fair to make new record for this country. The report of the American Iron and Steel Associa- ton shows that the product for the first half year has been 5,909,7 ,703 tons, as compared with 4,4o3,476 tons for the corresponding half of last year. Or dinarily, the product of the second half year exceeds that of the first, but the product of the first six months of 1898 is 100000 tons more than that of the last half of 1897. At the present rate, the product of the year should be about 13,000000 tons. Last year it was 9,652,- GOO tons, and that was a larger output than was ever credited to Great Britain.

NO NEWS OF DEFEAT OF TREATY
Japan Mail Says Such Intelligence
Was Not Received.

News was received in the city yes
terday on the arrival of the Belgic of
the defeat of the Annexation Treaty
in the United States Senate. The de-
tails were meager. One Japanese
newspaper stated that the treaty had
been Indefinitely postponed. Another
dispatch had it that Tokyo merchants
had received messages that the Senate
had voted down the measure.
Papers under date of March l con-
tain the news of the defeat of the
treaty. The Japan Mail of March 4,
states:
According to telegraphic informa-
ton received in Tokyo, the Senate of
the United States has rejected the bill
for the annexation of Hawaii, and the
measure has consequently been post
poned Indefinitely. We have made in
quiry in official quarters, and learn
that no such Intelligence has been re-
ceived."
Minister Cooper stated yesterday
afternoon that the Foreign Office had
received no dispatches telling of the
defeat Of annexation in the Senate.

ment directing the Marshal TO cite wit
nesSeS is the order to summon, amongst
others to testify were P. c. Jones and
Henry NJ. Whitney. A number Of ma
tives gave testimony. In the subpoena
there follows the name of the Hawai-
ian in each instance the name OF his
employer.
King was acquitted. 1t is said TO
this day that he got off by the skin
of his teeth He was an aggressive,
self-assertive man regarded as too
quick and bold, and even dangerous.
He was engaged here in the pulu busi-
ness. This was AN industry that is
now almost forgotten. Pulu is a ma
tive fern. The trunk is a fibrous for
nation of quality that served well as
substitute for the articles then used
to stuff mattresses. Pulu now is used
on Hawaii to make walks from the
Volcano road to the cottages of the
coffee planters. One species is used to
feed stock. A man named Shipman
steams this pulu around the Volcano
and fattens beeves with it.
Captain Stott was a sailor man. He
lived here a good deal of the time,
once in awhile making trip to the
south or to the Coast as master Of a
schooner. He had the reputation Of
being rather crotchety. At his age in
1863 he was bulky and not at all ac-
tive.
A few words are put in by King for
himself when he declares that ''in both
these affairs time has justified his ac
ton" 1t is stated by those who re-
collect the shooting of Captain Stott
that King would easily have avoided
firing the shot. AS to the New York
affair, the facts of the killing are given
by the Sun. A gentleman now in HO
nolulu who was in New York at the
time O'Neill was shot to death says
that King was convicted of murder and
sentenced to suffer the death penalty.
He remained in the Toombs jaiD sew
eral months under stay of execution.
Then the communication of his punish
ment of life Imprisonment was Sc
cured. He was sent to Sing Sing peni-
tentiary, was there a number of years
and then transferred to Auburn. Here
be became the cell-mate and close
friend of Fisk, the man who reached
prison out of the Grant-Ward broker
age and defalcation scandals. This
companionship was the salvation of
King. 1t gave him an influence that
resulted in his release from prison.
At the end of one of the terms of Gov
ernor Hill it was discovered to the
establishment of all, that the executive
he'd, quietly, really privately pardon
ed King. This clemency was given
without an intimation to the Board Of
Pardons and entirely outside the usual
channels. 1t was a clandestine affair
brought about by friends of F'iske.
King served more than twenty years
in the prisons of New York. Imme-
diately upon securing liberty he journ-
eyed far and is now heard Of in the
remarkable note given above and

shore and in the middle of the Paci-

" To the Honorable District Attorney
of the City and County of New
York:
Honorable Sir:-Will you kindly
send me by express, the revolver with
which l shot Anthony F. O'Neil in
1872? Having been pardoned, believe
[ am entitled to it. The Hawaiian
Government returned the one I shot
Capt. VIM. Stott with, and in both
these affairs time has justified my ac-
tion. | am living alone on my ranch

therefore make this request, assuring
you that only a proper use will be
made of the weapon. Yours respect
fully,
JAMES C. KING -
'fMr. Olcott directed his stenogra-
pher to notify Mr.. King that revolvers
used in shooting cases in New York
were very seldom returned to the per-
sons who used them, and that the
shooting referred to in Mr.. Kings let
ter had occurred so long ago that the
revolver had probably been sold.
''The shooting to which King refers
occurred on the afternoon of Novem-
Der 1S, 1872, at AZ Pine street, in the
Office of Judge Josiah Sutherland.
King was at that time a lawyer
living at 140 East Seventh street. The
man he killed was Anthony F. O'Neill
of so West Thirtyfourth street.
GA month previous to the tragedy,
Kings wife began suit for divorce
Judge Sutherland was appointed re-
feree in the case, and the hearing was
held in his office in Pine street.
''O'Neill, who was a detective en-
ployed by the Erie Railroad Company,
testified before the referee acts of
cruelty on Kings part toward his wife
'fWhen the hearing adjourned on the
day that ONeill gave his testimony
King followed O'Neill out of the re-
feree's office and shot him as he was
passing down the stairs.
'tO'Neill died Immediately. King
walked back into the referees office
and handed the pistol to Judge Suther-
land
ga crowd of 5000 collected in the
street and threatened to lynch King,
and the police had difficulty in keeping
him out of their hands"

The shooting in this country to
which Jas. c. King refers made a big
sensation for Honolulu nearly 50 years
ago. Only the oldest kamaainas have
a clear recollection of the affair. Cap
tain Stott was the father-in-law Of
King. The wound inflicted was not
serious one.
The affray took place on Queen
street in front of the butcher shop Of
Jas. 1. Dowsett, about opposite one Of
the Waterhouse stores. A wordy al
tercation preceded the actual conflict.
1t was not the first time the two men
had quarrelled. After the sharp talk
ing had continued for a time Captain
Stott was seen to raise his heavy cane
to strike the husband Of his daughter.
King drew his revolver, which at that
period was considered a fine irearm
and shot at once. Captain Stott was
a heavy, fleshy man and the bullet
buried itself in some of his fat. He
thought he was hurt hard and for some
time was in a condition Of high fright.
King was then a cold blooded chap.
He was cool all the time and readily
submitted to arrest. This was on the
22d day of December, 1863. All that
was ever known of the details of the
difference between the men can be Civ
en- in the accepted statement that ii
was a family matter.
| On the 23d Of December, 1863, James
c. King was arraigned in the Police
Court and charged with an assault
with a weapon obviously, ETC., dan
gerous to life" His counsel was Law
yer Montgomery and the Attorney
General of the day was c. c. Harris
A strong fight was made by Mont
gomery for bail Of his client and i
was granted in the sum of $4,000 Thi!
| amount was at that time considered
very heavy. King found surety a
once.
The case was brought before th'
Supreme Court at the term of January
1864 All the papers are in a Cabine

Deafness Cannot Be Cured

by local applications, as they cannot
reach the diseased portion of the ear.
There is only n way to cure deafness
and that is by constitutional remedies.
Deafness is caused by an inflamed con
dition of the mucous lining of the Eus-
tachian tube. When this tube gets in
famed you have a rumbling sound or
imperfect hearing, and when it is en-
tirely closed deafness is the result, and
unless the inflammation can be taken
out and this tube restored to its nor
nal condition, hearing will be de-
stroyed forever, nine cases out Of ten
are caused by catarrh, which is moth
ing but an intlamed condition of the
mucous surfaces.
