Filipinos To Fight Us.

MANILA, Dec. 1.-The independent
party of the Filipinos is not disposed 10
accept the result of the deliberations of
the Peace Commissioners at Paris, judg-
ing from the tone of the native press.
The Independent publishes partic-
ulsriy bombastic leading article to the
effect that the Filipinos will decline to
permit their homes to be bought and sold
like merchandise"
II then repeats that the Filipinos are
ready to fight in defense of their rights
and asserts that the Government and
people are unanimous in claiming moth
ing less than Independence.
The paper also claims that the Fill
pinos have incontestiDle claims upon the
island of Luz)n, part of the Visayas Is
lands, and the Island of Min6anao, by
right of conquest. II comedies that the
Americans helped the insurgents "indi-
rectly by blockading Manila" Bnt. the
Indepencis claims, that even without
help the revolutionists must have ulti-
mately won.
Finally. the Independica holds that
Spain cannot cede the Philippine archi-
pelago, because it was never hers.''

WASHINGTON, Pa, Dsc- 2.-The last
will and testament of the late Jerome

funeral expenses be paid ont of the first

one for his wife and friend. Mary Nc
Lane. The next paragraph stipulstes
that his body shall be placed in the mid
die receptacle of the vault, with the body
Of his wife on the north side and that OF
Mary McLane on the south side. The
fnal clause of the will is a peculiar and
striking one. II provides that the entire
estate after the death OF his wife shall
constitute fund TO be used for the pnr-
pose Of preventing the licensing of saloons
iu Washington county. 1t directs that at
the termination of the estate the execu-
tors shall by petition apply TO the presi-
dent judge to request the judge to appoint

PIANO FOR THE BISHOPS HOME

To the newspaper men who visit
ed Molokai on Saturday the sugges-
ton was made that they request the
good people of Honolulu to donate
piano to the kindly hearted and
generous Sisters OF the Bishops
Home for the use of the young
females under their careful tuition
and guardianship.
The INDEPENDENT most cordially
supports such suggestion, aud would
further suggest that committee be
formed among the newspaper men
to carry out the plan so that the
piano may be sent as Christmas or
New Years gift.

Capital.
Special Corr espondence.


Ah See, prisoner confined in
Wailuku jail, escaped while working
on the road near Camp 3, at the H.
@. & S. Co. The police has failed
to apprehend the criminal, who was
not photographed as is provided
by law.
Thos. Clark, the well-known poll
tician, was taken seriously i'll on the
9th inst. and for time his life was
despaired Of The local physicians
were in Lahaina, and no medical
help was available. The old.style
"lomilomi" proved efficient however,
and Clark has recovered.
Judge Kalua has been laid up
with severe attack OF malaria, but
will he able to attend the Circuit
Court at Lahaina next month.
Wailuku people would be very
grateful to the Postmaster General,
if he would have light placed out
side the Post Office in Wailuku.
The mails generally arrive at night,
and there isn't sufficient light in
Wailuku to find the hole for the
key in the letter boxes except the
moon shines bright or the Leonids
are around.
Not sign of the much needed
water works. Maui will remember
the Government when the American
tide comes in.
E. B. Bvens aud Matt McCann
have been visiting Wailuku on very
important business. While they were
there the "ukiu" rain was unpleas-
antly prominent.
w. S. Maule gave fine luau at
Wahee in celebration of birthday.
A large number of people was
present.
Lahaina people kick against the
methods of the dog snatchers on the
police force, The "baiting" is con-
sidered unfair, although the tactic
used might be found very appro-
pirate for certain officials.
Some Lahaina people are kicking
becauee the Postmaster spends most
OF his time in soliciting orders for q
Honolulu firm and collecting bills,
and thereby neglecting the interest
OF the taxpayers.
The Bismark Stables feel justly
proud OF having dispatched team
from Wailuku to Waiakoa, Kula, a
distance OF Is miles all up hill in
2 hours 20 minutes. Not bad for
Maui horses.

Kl0ndykian Cold.

In a warm climate, such as
ours, ice is an absolutely ne
cessity as a food preserver
and a means towards preserv-
ing an equal temperature of
body and mind. Ice chests
and refrigerators are no long
er a luxury but a necessity
and the wise woman always
selects the best for her house
hold. This undoubtedly is
the Alaska as experience has
proved.
The ALASKA is constructed
upon strictly scientific prin-
cipals, by which low tempera-
ture and dryness of air are
naturally and inevitably OBJ
tanned.
The ALASKA has preserved
fresh meats perfectly for three
weeks in the hottest weather
and produces better results
with less ice than any. other.
The ALASKA has the only
provision chamber free from
odor, for between the outer
and inner walls there is an
inch and a half space filled
with pure charcoal, and ex-
perience has convinced all that
the ALASKA is without doubt,
the best refrigerator on the
market, in construction, in
preserving perishable goods,
in economy of ice, and in all
points necessary to make
them first-class.
We have them in several
sizes, at from Sl5 to $25 and
also keep the ALASKA ICE
CHESTS.
Call and see them.

No Lecture.

The early arrival Of the Coptic
and her departure for San Francisco
at 5 p. m. has made it necessary for
Mr.. James Wilder to cancel his pro-
missed lecture at Punahou which was
scheduled for this evening.
The public will miss very in
structive and interesting entertain
ment, Mr.. Wilder being a fluent
talker, a witty raconteur and con-
versant with every subject he chooses
to deal with, from the Caroline Isl
ands to Caroline's hula kui. Mr..
Wilder leaves by the Coptic and
will visit Paris at the centennial ex
position. Honolulu will remind him
upon his return to his home that he

A BRILLIANT WEDDING.
Lahaina has not witnessed as i'm
posing pageant as that arranged
for the Vetleseu- Hayselden nuptials,
which took place on the 9TH inst.
since the days when Kings and
Queens inhabited Lanikeha, the
beautiful residence of Mr.. and Mrs.
Fred. II. Hayselden.
Numerous invitations had been
issued, and the guests responded
from all ends of the islands of
Maui, Lanai and .Molokai and even,
from Oahu, Kauai and Hawaii.
The genial host and hostess had
decided to make the happy event,
which joined their beloved daughter
to most worthy young man, for
the voyage through life, most
brilliant affair, and they succeeded
in manner that reminded all the
kamaainas of the good old times,
when the "Royalists" did entertain.
The grounds Of Lanikeha were il
Illuminated with torches and gaily
colored lanterns, and the road from
the Church of the Holy Innocents
to the residence was covered with
rushes and ferns.
The ceremony took place in the
church mentioned, the Rev. Alex.
Macintosh officiating, assisted by
the Rev. w. Ault. The bride looked
lovely in a becoming costume of
white silk and was attended by her
friend, Miss Ella Dayton, as brides
maid. The groom looked the pink
Of health after his recent visit to his
mountain home, and as his best man
stood the brother of,the bride, Mr..
Walter Hayselden. "Kikaha" gave
his daughter away, and did the
heavy papa" business in first class
style.
After the ceremony the bridal
party returned to Lanikehs, where
the young couple held reception
under beautiful floral bell, which
must have exhausted the flower gar
dens Of Lanai and Lahaina.
To enumerate the magnificent
presents which were sent to the
young people would take too much
OF your space. Your correspondent
noticed gold, silver, cut glass and
many articles ornamental and useful.
A beautiful oil painting of Lanai by
member OF the Kilohana Art
League was specially admired. How
to describe the general merriment,
the courtesy and genial hospitality
of Mr.. and Mrs. Hayselden, and
especially the lavish refreshments
and the flow of champagne is beyond
the pen of anyone who specially ad-
mired the latter adjunct to the fes-
tivities.
A special lanai had been erected,
decorated with palms and flags Of
all nations. Special honor was given
to the Hawaiian and Norwegian
flags, the respective banners of the
young couple, then came Old Glory,
the flag of Mrs. Hayselden, and the
Union Jack, the emblem of the
country from which Mr.. Hayselden
halls.
The Kahakuloa band made music
for the occasion, and it was daylight
when the whistle from the Mauna
Loa said "pau" to the most brilliant
social event ever seen in Lahaina.
The people of Maui wish Mr., and
Mrs. Vetlesen bright and happy
future, and wait with anxiety the
next invitation to a wedding at La
nikeha. Hurry up, children.
