Only last week we examined the beer
brewed by the Capital Brewing Com
pany of Olympia, Wash, and it is a
perfect illustration of the quality of
beer which we are always glad to COM
mend, for the analysis showed it to be
entirely free from any trace of any in
furious substance. Such a high grade
of beer is most beneficial in it's use, for
none of the pure malt and hops have
been displaced by harmful ingredients.
Every hygienist will concur with us in
saying that a beer of such superior
excellence is a very wholesome bever-
age. Physicians often have occasion
to prescribe a pure beer for cases Of
debilitation, and they can safely order
his beer, made by the Capital Brewing
company.
L. H. Dee has in his keeping the
american Journal of Health and can
De seen by anyone.
This beer can be had in bottle or on
draught at the HOFFMAN, corner of
Hotel and Nuuanu streets. A large as
Bortment of the very best of American
and foreign liquors we are pleased to
Nell you and give you value for the
Nnefit of your health.
Yours, L. H. DEE,
Proprietor of HOFFMAN.

IN A STORM
THE HONGKONG MARU'S ROUGH
EXPERIENCE.
Her Bowsprit Broken and a Sailor
Washed observation-disclosures Justice
Putnams Remains on Board

The Christmas experienced by the
passengers and crew of the Japanese
steamship Hongkong Maru was the
liVeliest they ever had and the liveliest
they are likely to have. For twenty
four hours the vessel hove to in terri
BILE storm, which reached it's limit on
Christmas Eve. On the night of the
twenty-flfth the bOwsprit was broken
and a sailor was washed overheard. A
boat was at once lowered and an effort
made to rescue the unfortunate man,
but he had disappeared among the
waves, which were rolling mountains
high The men i'm the boat nearly lost
their own lives in the effort. They
were hauled back on the steamer al
most in fainting condition and the
boat was smashed before it could be
hoisted up. Owing to the delay the
vessel did not get here till yesterday
morning. Those on board will enjoy
their New Years dinner much more
than they did their Christmas bill of
fare, in spite of the fact that Steward
Smith had prepared a glorious feast.
On board the HongkOng Maru is the
body of the late Supreme Justice Put
nam of New York, who recently passed
through here on a tour of the world.
He intended to visit his son in Manila,
but died before reaching the Philip
pines. The deceased was a descendant
of the famous Israel Putnam and was
a widely known and respected member
of the New York bar
The Hongkong Maru is in strict
quarantine. None of those on board are
allowed ashore and no visitors are al
lowed on the vessel. AS she would
probably have been quarantined at San
Francisco in any event, owing to the
conditions prevailing in Japan, the
side, but locked at the Pacific Mail
wharf.

PRESIDENT B0lCe'o FEAR.


Denver, Col, May l5.-in his address
at the opening of the annual consen-
ton of the Western Federation of
Miners, President Boice said: II will
say without hesitation or fear of con-
tradiction that in the grandest repub-
lie ever organized in the world, we are
fast descending to condition worse
than has ever existed in any mon
archy on earth. 1t is time for labor
ing people TO say that no military
despot shall exist in any state or
county of this country. We should
not longer endure the action of the
judges sitting on the bench of the
United States supreme court, who rs
sue injunctions restraining laboring
men. There seems no relief to be eX-
pected from any political organiza-
tion existing to-day am sorry to
say, and all our hope of gaining re-
lief through politics must come when
we come to the point where we can
reply upon ourselves to cast united
vote"

San Francisco, May l5.-Rev. 7. j.
Wills, of New York, read a paper at
meeting of the Presbyterian minis
ters of this city yesterday on the
Great Need of the Church." He de-
plored the tendency of ministers to
hold their congregations by preaching
materlalistic sermons, Speaking of
the higher criticism he said: Science
in its most erratic and irreverent days
never did one thousandth part as
much to unsettle confidence in the di-
vine revelation as the immature, half
dlgested and undemonstrated theories
which our critics have been putting
forth have done"

EX.GOV. STONES VIEW.

st. Louis, May 14.-Ex-Gov. William

cratic national committee, while dis
cussing the advisibility of Mr.. Towne
Withdrawing from the race for vice
president on the populist ticket, said:
II think the populist committee made
a mistake in nominating a candidate
for vice president. Instead of simpli.
flying it complicates the situation.
However, I am glad Mr.. Towne is the
nominee for the reason that | regard
him as big man and l know him to
be fair and patriotic. l am satisfied
he will do whatever may be thought
to be for the best, having but one end
in view and that the success of the
ticket to be nominated at Kansas City.
If 1t is the opinion of the Kansas City
convention that it would be unwise to
nominate him he would accept that
verdict accordingly. / have a high
opinion of Mr.. Towne in every way,
but at this time | do not care to ex-
press an opinion as to what the KAN
sas City convention should do with
reference to nominating a candidate
for vice president That is something
which ought to be thought out care
fully and deliberately after full COM
parison of the views Of leading men
from different sections of the coun-

from so many soldiers being brought

THE ST. LOUIS STRIKE.


St. Louis, May 15.-There were i'm
portant Developments in the stree,
car strike situation yesterday. AT Q
conference held between the officials
of the Suburban Railway company
the only system in St. Louis not con.
trolled by the 81. Louis Transit com.
pany and on which a strike was in.
augurated ten days prior to that de.
clared on the Transit system, and the
officials Of the employees on that
road, an amicable adjustment was eff.
fected and the men will return to
work this morning. On just what
basis the strike was settled could not
be learned, but 1t can be positively
stated that the union received full
recognition. In many quarters 1t is
figured that the settlement of the
strike on the Suburban presages an
adjustment of the difficulties between
the Transit company and its 5000
striking employees in the near future.
In fact, it was learned last night that
at conference held in the afternoon
of the officials Of the Transit COM
pany, the chairman of the employees
grievance committee and some of the
members of the citizens committee,
matters were adjusting themselves
nicely for settlement of the diff
Guilty when member of the citizens
committee injected into the proceed
ings proposition of such a charac-
ter that the discussion was brought
to close with matters no nearer a
settlement than had heretofore ex-
listed. 1t is thought, however, that
future meeting of the same parties
will result in determining basis for
settlement of the strike.
The Suburban company had no dif-
ficulty in maintaining thorough rum
ming schedule yesterday, and riotous
demonstrations on that line were
conspicuous by their absence. On the
Transit company's system there were
a number of ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS
noisy than otherwise. In one instance
the police were obliged to charge on
a crowd of strike sympathizers to dis
perse 1t and in a number of instances
used the fiat side Of their sabers in
accomplishing their purpose. No
casualties Of serious nature were
reported during the day.

THE METHODIST CONFERENCE,
Committee on Tempersoe Give Slap to
President Mckinley = Committee on
EpiscOpacy Have u stormy Session.

Chicago, May 15.-The Methodist
Episcopal general conference commit
tee on temperance, of which Samuel
Dickie, of Michigan, is chairman, and
of which Congressman NJ. N. johnson,
of North Dakota, author and cham
pion of the anti-canteen law, is a
member, adopted resolutions yester-
day which, in the minds of number
of the committeeman at least, is a
direct slap at President Mckinley be-
cause of his acquiescence in the de-
cision of Attorney General Griggs de-
claring the law ineffective. The reso-
lutions are a portion of the report of
a subcommittee into whose hands the
task of preparing the committees re-
port to the general conference had
been placed and was adopted in the
face of a motion to substitute for it
minority report from DR.. Jacob L.
Price, of the New York conference,
after a two hours debate, in which
the members alternately arraigned
and championed President Mckinley
in his stand on the anti-canteen law.
The committee to which was re-
ferred all the questions which came
up in the discussion of the report of
the committee on the organic law of
the church organized with DR.. John +.
ley as chairman and DR.. John +.
Goucher as secretary The commit
tee may report to-day.
After stormy session the commit
tee on episcopacy decided to recon-
mend to the general conference that
two new bishops be elected to provide
for possible deaths on the board dur
ing the next four years. The body
voted down report from sub-com-
mittee in favor of petitioning the con-
ference to elect a colored bishop. =.
The time limit for Methodist
preachers seems doomed. By vote
Of SO to 81, the committee on itineran-
cy decided to present the general con-
ference a report favoring the aboli-
tion of the time limit now in force.

CONGRESSIONAL FORECAST.
Case In the SeOsts-suppiy Bills In
the House.

Washington, May 1.-THE senate
to-day will resume consideration of
the naval appropriation bill and it il
expected that the measure will be
passed during the day. Senator
Chandler has given notice that he will
call up the Clark case on Tuesday and
that he will endeavor to keep it be-
fore the senate until vote is reached.
This programme will meet with some
objection, but it is expected the great.
er part of the week will be devoted to
consideration Of this case. Senator
Wolcott some time ago gave notice
that he would call up the post office
appropriation bill and it is thought
that it may be disposed of in day or
two. Senator Ross has given notice
OF set speech and there are some
conference reports to be presented
which may cause discussion. There
may be clash over the Montana
case, and other business, but the
Clark contest seems to be the only
event OF Importance for the week.
The house this week will send to
the senate the last of the general
supply bills-the general deficiency
and the military academy appropria-
ton bills-and will be ready for ad.
Journment as soon as the senate
passes them and adjusts the differ
ences between the two houses upon
those already passed or pending in
conference. These conference re.
ports on appropriation bills are to
be given the right of way from now
until the end Of the session. The
house leaders say they will be ready
for the sine die adjournment June /,
but allowing for delays and accidents
incident to the closing up of the ses.
sion they are not inclined to think
both houses will be ready to quit be-
fore June 10. Later on If complica.
tions arise in the senate the house
may emphasize its readiness to ad.
journ by adjourning over from day to
day while the senate is in the final
throes of dissolution. The general de.
ficiency bill will be taken up to-day
and it will be followed by the military
academy bill. 1t is understood the
senate army reorganization bill may
be taken up on Wednesday. The re-
mainder of the week until Saturday
will be devoted to miscellaneous mat.
ters. Saturday under special order
adopted some time ago is to be given
up to the ceremonies attending the
acceptance of the statue of Gen.
Grant presented by the G. A. R.
