FRIDAY. JAN. 27, 1899.

President Mckinley is leaving no
stone unturned in solving the Ha-
waiian question, and his first effec-
tive step has been to recognize Fl.
w. Schmidt as Consul for Norway
and Sweden for the district of the
Sandwich Islands. The official organ
printed an alleged picture of the
Consul yesterday morning, and as
sured the readers that the new Con-
sui will have his commission framed
aud preserved as an heirloom. The
Norwegian Swedish colony feels very
gratified at this mark of courtesy on
the part of Mr.. Mckinley, and trusts
that their Consul will return the
compliment by sending a volume OF
his poems bound in vellum to the
great war President while the com
mission is framed, would it not be
we'll for the "colony" to put the
Swelling" Consul in hoop.

yesterday in the most aristocratic
and select saloon in Honolulu. Alasl
they were kamaainas the men who
held up the beautiful polished bar
aud stepped on the bright brass rail.
They had been there before, and the
polite barkeepers were busy, and all
that was heard was "same as usual,
judges" leetle sody Mr.. ----;
"Yes general, in a moment--with
ginger ale" ""beer for Mr.. ----"
''small glass and much brandy for

And the clatter of the glasses and

of the little barkeepers made every.

The Uganda Railway.

The latest news from the Uganda
railway is that work has been start
ed at the Great Rift, two-thirds of
the line having now been completed.
From Mombasa the ruling gradient
is l in SO, rising to in 66, and at
the Great Rift the land falls away
so abruptly that system of cable
haulage will have to be adopted
with stationary engine on the hill.
Local labor is practically nom
existent. Only in times of famine
will the natives of the country seek
employment, and it has become a
matter of conviction with the rail-
way authorities that the opening out
and developing of Uganda is de-
pendent upon the transfer upon a
large scale of Hindoo and Moham-
medau cultivators from India.

Newspaper Men

Almost every newspaper man is
asked by the ambitious for counsel
as to the feasibility of undertaking
the work. The choice of calling
is difficult matter to advise about
Much as 10 getting married, the
ouestioner listens, andthen marries
whom he pleases, provided she is
willing and the old folks consent.
To become a newspaper man one
usually begins as a reporter. The
work is hard, the hours long, but as
compared with other work the pay
is good. But there are limitations
we'll defined and passed by few. The
reporter has little time for domestic
or social life. He is exposed to
many temptations, and his prone
ness to waste his salary is proverbial.
In few years he is apt to get into a
rut, and having done so, only gets
out by dying. There is an army of
men who have devoted years to
newspaper work, and who wonder,
as the first gray hairs appear, why
they ever hegan. 1t seems to them
that had they been farmers or archi-
tects, doctors, lawyers, preachers or
carpenters they would have had
more to show for their efforts. But
in all probability the other fellows
entertain similar feelings as to their
own vocations.-Henry James in S. F.
Call.

a Bad Break

Words were sent to the Police
Station yesterday from the manager
of the Hawaiian Hotel that room
occupied by Mrs. VIM. E. Haskell of
Minneapolis had been entered, her
trunks opened, and jewelry besides
a considerable amount of gold coin
distracted.
Our local Pinkertons took hold OF
the case and David KAPPA, the fam
GUS Sleuth of Honolulu, eventually
arrested Jim Massa, messenger
boy, in the employ OF the Hotel peo-
pie.
Massa was arrested and released
this morning it being evident that
not one iota of evidence could be
given against the young fellow who
is a son of poor but honest parents,
the father being Japanese and the
mother Portuguese. Massa was
allowed his liberty this morning and
will bring a suit of damages against
the men who caused his arrest and
stamped him as a thief. Onr Pink
ertons should go little slow before
they make costly and serious

UP TO DATE.
The Union Barber Shop Has Been
Opened BY Frank Facheco.


A prominent passenger on a
through steamer asked to be steered
to decent" barber shop few days
ago. "Come along," said his local
friend, and the visitor was piloted
into the handsomely ornamented
and palm-covered lane which leads
to the Union Art Gallery aud the
Union Barber Shop.
The tourist didn't want to visit a
"Palace" but when matters we're ex-
planned he entered the Union Bar
ber Shop, dropped into the chair
of one of the lightning BARRIERS and
simply answered, "Well, I will be
id, this beats anything l ever run
across"
And when his face had been shaw
ed in a manner never realized be-
fore, and his hair had been trimmed
and he felt as we'll groomed man,
he whistled softly and said to his
friend, "Say, what is this, anyway"
He was told that this was the new
establis hment OF Pacheco, the cele-
brated tonsorial artist and barber
who, during the last few years, has
renovated the barber shops of Ho-
nolulu and established shops of the
very latest pattern.
The Union chop beats everything
in the line ever seen here. E. S.
Cunha, the landlord, has spar
ed no expenses in making
the new establishment first class
and ahead of the other old shops
The new premises have been orna-
mented in a most skillful manner
and the parquet floor is admired by
| all customers. Mirrors and chairs
and cupboards have been put up
| and all the furniture shows the re.
| fined taste Of the owner and the
practical sense Of the lessee.
The Union Barber Shop is without
comparison the prettiest, cosiest
and most convenient place in towr
to all business men who "firt" with
the razor.
Pacheco has at present two assist
ants aud shortly fourth chair will
be placed in the rooms, and anothe
expert engaged. Among the new
wrinkles introduced in the Uniol
Barber Shop is the bootblack wht
attends to the shoes of the custom
ers if so desired, while he artist

Frank Pacbeco is to be heartily
complinented on the Inauguration
Of the new enterprise and at the
high standing he has brought the
art OF shaving in this country.

And yet to-day the Hanoverians
aud the men OF Sohleswig-Hols
"meer umschlungen," and OF Alsace-
Lorraine, take off their hats to the
crowned man, who may yet decide
the future of the world. The reasons
for the dislikes of the Prussians can
not be laid on the shoulders of the
young emperor who can only re-
member, as from dream OF child
hood, the outrages committed to-

THE IMPERIAL BIRTHDAY.

The Emperor of Germany and
King of Prussia to-day passes the
line in his life, which marks the
words and conditions OF "boy and
man." The grey y-whiskered gentle
men who "know-it all" will put the
young Kaiser down as "foolish
boy" They will forget the merits
of his reign, because, like Bismark,
they only see in him "boy."
The Independent. [volume] (Honolulu, H.I.) 1895-1905, 1899-01-27

The Emperor, who to-day passes
the hour, after which he can no
longer be called young" is perhaps
the shrewdest living diplomat in the
world and a man who knows what
he is about. He has lived clean
life devoted to his wife and children.
He has apparently been imbued with
religious and according to other iudg
ments, by political ideas, but he has
from the day he understood who he
was, and what his mission was, been
true German and, alas, strong
Prussian.

But what a boy has he been! The

yet proven himself fool.

They are so simple that a
child can work them, and yet
they make the clearest, finest,
and purest coffee in the world,
preserving the beautifular aroma
and bouquet. and keeping the
liquor perfectly free from
grounds.
We refer to the
Telescope Coffee Pots.
The Independent. [volume] (Honolulu, H.I.) 1895-1905, 1899-01-27

These are made on the prin-
ciple of the famous French
cafetieres. Inside of the coffee
pots is an adjustable cylinder
which can be raised or lower
ed and maintained in position
at will. Having affixed your
straining cloth and raised the
cylinder to the point you re-
quire, insert the ground coffee
into it and pour on your boil
ing water. Let it rest for five
minutes or so and the result
will be a perfect cup of
coffee, delightfully."- fresh, frag-
rant and stimulating and rich
in color.
These TELESCOPIC
COFFEE POTS we keep in
several sizes ranging from a
pint to two quarts, and the
price is extremely reasonable.
As we have not an extremely
large stock on hand we wish
our patrons to examine them
as soon as possible.

1T is to be hoped that under the Stat
utes OF the United States, the United

ministration of Lieutenant r. c. Fremont,
the Supervisor of the Harbor of New

ed and is about to expend such a large
noun in dredging out, will receive the
attention 1t deserves.
Probably the best solution Of the mat
ter for the present would be a necessary
law authorizing the State Commission to
require a proper treatment by cremation,
or through some other kind of treatment
of the sewerage of each municipality to

cipalities.
President Chase will appear before the

voorhees, is not to have the honor OF
making a speech of the day when New
Jerseys s., 500 sword is presented to Rear
Admiral Sampson of Boston next week.
The Governor has all along been regarded
asst the proper person to give the Admiral
the present in the nam of the State, but
the joint legislative committee named to
purchase the sword have decided to even
a little score with the Governor by Y
ing one of their own member do the talk
ing.
1t will be remembered that when the
sword was finished after a wait of about
seven months, the committeeman were de-
sirous of having the presentation a
place on board the flagship New York
This would have given the New Jersey
legislators an opportunity to exhibit them
selves and receive the plaudits of the
jackies. But this programme did not suit
Voorhees,, and he decided to steal a march
on the committee. He went to Sampson
post haste and got the Admiral to agree
upon October Is as the date and Trenton
as the place for the presentation This,
of course, cut the committeeman out of
the opportunity to display themselves, and
they are returning the compliment by
electing that Senator Ketcham shall do
the talking. The Senator is not noted for
his speaking. but that makes no differ
ence.
The Governor is to act as sword bearer
and will deliver the present to Sampson,
when, if he desires, he will have a chance
to say something. The presentation will
take place in the Assembly chamber.
