 Now you don't have to take our word for this-ask MT. Kimberly at his Park Street Stables-he'll tell you all about Brownie.
 Don't believe any father or mother wants their child rid ing around on a pony that they don't know much about that's why we say-see MT. Kimberly.
 Every Customer of Our Store Will Have a Chance to Say Who Shall Have Brownie.
 In other words beginning this morning every purchaser of 25 cents worth of merchan- disc here will be entitled to one vote. If you purchase amounts to 50 cents you have ? votes, if to 75 cents 5 votes and so on. Voting closes Christmas Eve and the boy or girl (not over I6 years of age) having the most votes will receive the pony as a Christmas gift from us.
 Ask for your duplicate sales slips at each counter. Present this slip at the Brownie Booth.
 ' Of course we expected tha' this novel method of interest ing the children would be imi tated-but then you know imitation is the sincerest flat tery.
 Brownie will be on th

OF the court last evening. AS the
evidence was not supposed to be

that Mr.. McTighe is hardened re-

eddy find in favor of the handsome
damsel, whose affections have be-
come lost, strayed or stolen, through
Old Tom. Judge A. V. Gear wears
the ermiue with grace and is ably
supported by clerks, officers and
stenographers. miss Jones" is re-
presented by Messrs. Geo. Davis
and Crawley, the latter being very
attentive indeed to his pretty client;
aud the unfortunate gentleman from
Ireland, who is asked $4,000 for
breaking the rocks-beg pardon, the
heart-of the fair maiden, is repre-
sented by Mr.. @. M. White, a veteri-

the evening OF the Goth inst. aud
pyrotechnical display of wit, retorts

courtesy OF giving warning Of their
predatory plans to tear away piece

In regard to the proposed sale by
the Government OF the Puusnahulu
lands which is advertised in an OBJ
scure manner to take place on the
9Th OF February, at Kailua, Hawaii,
it is interesting to remember deci-
sion OF the Supreme Court which
deals with the sale Of lands. We
hope that the Cabinet ministers who
are making themselves participants
in the Puuanahulu land steal will
read the words OF the late Justice
McCully in the case OF Silva VS..
Lopes, Hawaiian Reports, Volume v.
page 265, in which the learned
justice says that ut is in accordance
with the custom OF long standing to
hold the sales in Honolulu" And
that at would be inconvenieut and
a disadvantage in many instances to
conduct sales OF land on the pre-
misses" The old practice should be
followed and all government lands
should be sold at Honlulu at the
entrance OF the Judicial Building,
when Mr.. Dole's pet will have TO pay
for the leases coveted by him. The
government cannot afford to show
any favoritism at the present mo.
