Questions Answered,

Yes. August Flower still has the )arg-
est sale of any medicine in the civilized
world. Your mothers and grandmoth-
ers never thought of using anything
else for indigestion or tiiousncss. Doc
tors were scarce, and they seldom heard
Of appendicitis, nervous prostration or
heart failure, etc. They used August
Flower to clean the system and stop fer
mentation OF undigestcd food, regulate
the action OF the liver, stimulate the
tenn, and that is all they took when
feeling dull and bad with headaches
and other aches. You only need few
doses of Green's August Flower, in Ii.
quid form, to make you satisfied there
is nothing serious the matter with you
For sale by w. E. Pelham.

a Big Blaze.

The fire department was call out
on Saturday afternoon in response
to call from Aala. When the en-
gnes arrived the Chinese theatre
and number of shacks in the vici-
nifty we're burning. A strong wind
WAS blowing and it took the utmost
efforts of the fremen to save the
Oahu Co.'s lumber yard and the
Railroad depot from the flames.
About 80 buildings we're burnt to
the ground. The great temporary
store house was fortunately saved.
1t contains merchandise valued at
$250,O00. The property on which
the buildings were belong to the
Hall estate, S, G. Allen and Judge
Frear. Several of the buildings had
not been condemned by the Board
of Health and the Insurance Com
panies will be- called upon to pay
the policies on those buildings. How
the fire started is unknown but it is
generally believed that it was case
OF incendiarism for the purpose Of
Saving the insurance" 1t is to be
hoped that the guilty parties will be
spprehended, II the wind had
changed it is likely that the business
part of the town aud the wharves
would have heen destroyed.

The Plague Record.

Asagura, Japanese male, 33 years,
died at Kalihi detention camp hos
pital. Had been i'll over two days
with pneumonia symptoms. Con-
sidered as suspicious only at time of
death. Postmortem clearly proved
the case to be bubonic plague. The
body was cremated.
Mimi, wife of Asagura, has the
identical symptoms of her husband,
was taken ill at the same time, and
is now delirious. No glandular en-
largements are traceable 80 far. Re-
ported as suspicious.
Takasaki, Japanese male, 25 years,
died at the Plague hospital yester-
day of typhoid fever. His body was
cremated.
Likia Kulalii, Hawaiian female,
10 years, died about o'clock yester-
day morning. This is the case at
the Spencer premises, Koiuiu, Ka-
palama, next to the residences of the
Dwights and Desha. The cause of
death was bronchial pneumonia.
Her remains we're buried at Makiki
Cemetery yesterday afternoon and

Senator Pettigrew's indictment of
President Mckinley and his Philip
pine policy is worth study, if only
as showing to what latitude freedom
of speech is permitted in the Con-
gress of the United States. To be
termed "puny president" and to
be charged with entering on war at
cost of many lives and millions OF
dollars, merely to obtain nomina-
ton for second term seems hardly
respectful even when referring to
such a man as our "puny president"
much less 30 to the ruler OF the
greatest country in the world"
