ed Herring, who was sentenced in
1891, for killing Huntsman, to 20
years imprisonment; Matsuda, who
was sentenced to death, and later on
reprieved, for murder OF a fellow

TOPICS OR THE DAY.

1t is always surprise to our peo-
pie here to notice the vulgar man
ner in which visitors from abroad
frequently act at our public func-
tions, be they sad or joyful. A party
OF Americans (men and women), who
have been received here as gentle
men and ladies, made themselves
very obnoxious at the royal obse-
quies in Kawaiahao Church yester-
day, and their conduct hurt the peo-
pie who sincerely mourned the de-
parture of the royal lady by being
obliged to listen to their loud talk
ing, giggling and rude criticism Of
the "barbarians."

A ROYAL EUNERAL.
Queen Dowager Kapiolani Laid at
Rest-A Great Pageantry.

Aebt-A Greht 6aReantrY.
The funeral of the late lamented
Queen Dowager Kspiolani, the relict
Of the late King X Kslasaua, was one
of the grandest aud best conducted
funerals ever seen here. At / O'Clock
yesterday afternoon the entrances
to the old stone church at Kawaia-
hao, we're thrown open to the peo-
pie who lad for hours gathered 10
the church yard The efficient
ushers took special pains to give pre-
cedence 10 entering the church to
the Hawaiians and to those who
knew the late Ali, and went there
not out of curiosity but to shed a
tear and pay the last respect to the
beloved Queen.
The Anglican clergy headed by
the Right Rev. Bishop OF Honolulu,
aud preceded by the supliced choir
entered shortly before 2 O'Clock.
The service which was brief and
according to the Anglican ritual was
conducted by the Right Rev. Bishop
OF Honolulu, while the organ was
presided over by Professor Wray
Taylor, assisted by Dr. o. Il Wall,
who rendered Haudel's Largo" for
violin in an excellent manner, by
Mrs. ANUS Montague Turner, whose
brilliant voice always touches the
heart OF her Hawaiian compatr.ots,
and by the choirs Of St Andrews
and Kawaahao Churches. The Rev
a. II. Parker, pastor OF the old
stone church assisted the Bishop
but made no address owing to cold
and sore throat.
The church was filled to the ut
most capacity and the magnificent
kalilis and floral decorations were
the admired cynosure Of all eyes.
Captain Potter and his aids de-
serve great credit for the excellent
manner in which the procession had
been arranged outside the church
prior to the sad moment when the
remains were lifted by the following
aliis: j. Makainai, Laanui, Kauai,
A. X. Palekaluhi. D Hoapili, NJ. X.
Keohokalole, and surrounded by the
honorary pail bearers carried to the
catafalque and from there drawn by
loving hands to the Royal Mauso-
leum.
The order of the procession as
printed before was carried out in
proper order and without hitch.
The weather was extremely hot,
the thermometer registering 49,
(Fab) in shade when the procession,
which took 35 minutes to pass a
given point, entered Nuuanu Ave-
nue.. Mr.. Samuel p. Parker carried
the famous Kapu Stick weighing
100lbs. and nearly melted. In front
the royal decorations OF the late
Queen were carried by Hon. John
t. Baker, who walked together with
Mr.. Kekueapoiwa, descendant OF
the Kamehamehas, who carried the
Palaoa, an emblem Of royalty.
The remains OF Queen Kspiolani
have been laid at rest, but her
memory will live as long as a loyal
or trne Hawaiian can be found in
the beloved Islands OF Kapiolani.

The last meeting of the retiring
Council was to have been held last
evening, but owing to the absolute re-
fusal of a number of members to at
tend a quorum could not be secured
in the Second Branch, although it was
a quarter after nine o'clock before an
adjournment was taken. which was
probably sine die. as tomorrow is
election day. A meeting could be called
for this evening, but there appears to
be no pressing necessity for it.
In the First Branch fourteen of the
sixteen members answered to their
names, Mayor Butts being in the chair.
In the Second President Chew and ten
members answered when the roll was
called, and this was high water mark.
The officers on duty were sem for
absentees, and more than an hour was
devoted to the dull work of waiting
for some n to come, but after nine
o'clock it was officially reported that
%absentees seen refused to come, and
at a quarter after nine the Second
Branch adjourned, being initiated in
a few minutes by the First.
The regular report of the City Clerk,
which was to have been read, was as

The call for the annual meeting of

stockholders yesterday afternoon re-
suited in no quorum. There was some
twenty-three hundred shares repre-
scented, about One-fourth of the ma
jority of stock, the number required to
transact business. The annual state
ment was read and showed that the
past years business had resulted in a
fair margin of profit. A dividend had
been declared by the directory of three
per cent, one-half payable now and the
remainder payable in April.

presiding officers did not amount to
much.
The Committee on Elections had
bills amounting to $434.53, and the
Committee on Petitions and Remon-

Wheeling, w.

Wheeling, w. Va, January "a, 1899.
To the Editor of the Register.
Sir:-As the organ of the ring deems
fit to call your query about the Water
Board a "cowardly attack" perhaps
it would not be wise to say anything
about the manner the Board deliber-
ately threw down the petition of the
coal miners of this city to put coal in
the pumping station, and give employ
ment to a large number of citizens and
taxpayers, besides putting in circula-
ton in our own city amongst our own
merchants about $1,000 annually, driv-
ing poverty and distress from many a
doorstep and in place installing peace
and contentment. "Economy!" Per-
haps it was ECONOMY that compelled
a refusal to use coal even at $4,000 less
than the fuel cost at present. Do coal
miners and workingmen forget their
friends? Never. MINER.

a calf roast and banquet at their quar-
tiers on South Market street the other
night which is said to have been one of
the finest layouts this organization ever
gave. At least W. hundred people
dropped in and took lunch and re-
freshments during the evening, among
whom were numerous candidates, who
do not forget the social side of man so
o o before election. Joe Bero and
others made speeches, and Nal. Hum
phrey entertained the crowd with some
of his catchy songs.

NERVOUS DYSPEPSIA.
To Gain Flesh, to Sleep Well, to Know
What Appetite and Good
Digestion Mean.
Make A TEST OF STUART'S DYsPEP-
STA TABLETS.

No troubles is more common or
more misunderstood than nervous
dyspepsia. People having it think
their nerves r to blame and are
surprised that they are not cured
by nerve medicines. The real seat
OF the mischief is lost sight of.
The stomach is the organ to be
looked after.
Nervous d~yspeptics often do not
have any pain whatever in the
stomach, nor perhaps any of the
usual symptoms of stomach weak
ness. Nervous dyspepsia shows
itself not in the stomach so much
as in nearly every organ. In some
cases the heart palpitates and is
irregular; in others the kidneys
are affected; in others the bowels
are constipated, with headaches;
still others are troubled with loss

Bad Break at the LABEL Yesterda,
Morning.

Bad Break at the LaBeIIe Yesterday
Morning.
Hoffman, & Sons tannery is run
ming with a full quota of hands and the
management says there appears to be
plenty of business ahead. The rush
period in this business generally comes
about the middle Of January, but this
season it began the middle of Deem
Der, a month earlier than usual.
The spur wheel on the big engine
that runs the new plate mill at the La
Belle, broke early yesterday morning
and it will be at least two weeks be-
fore repairs can be made. The COM
pany is hurried on orders just now and
as a result Of the break yesterday
the old plate mill was put on three
turns. The new plate mill employees
between thirty-five and forty men
when working double turn.
A movement has been set on foot
looking TO a consolidation of all the
principal gas companies operating in
Ohio. Seventeen corporations have
either entered the combination or
have intimated they will, and the deal
may be considered as good as consum-
mated. The Eastern Ohio Gas Co,
which recently put a line through
Belmont county from the Sistersville
field north TO Massillon and Akron. ia
said to be a party to the consolidation.
Some uneasiness is felt over the riv-
er at the delay in starting the sheet
department of the Laughlin tin plant.
The tin houses have been working on
black plate that was rolled before the
shut down, but this will soon be ex-
hausted and then it is presumed the
whole plant will start. The Laughlin
is a modern plant in every particular
and it is hardly likely it will be ONE
OF the unlucky number that will be
shut down.
