The annual exhibition Of the Acade-
my Of st. Francis de Sales, will take
place at the Opera House, on July
10Th, at 7:30 p. m. These annual
exhibitions, for some years past,
have been given at the convent. This
year, however, it will take place at the
Opera House and promises to be much
more interesting than usual. The st.
Francis de Sales Academy is a local
institution that does much good in
the matter of education. 1t deserves
the support and patronage Of 1.-THE
people Of this community, and THE
COURIER hopes that the exhibition
will meet with the success that it de-
serves TO meet with.

Some Of the census enumerators
this parish have completed their
labors; but the result can only be sur
missed, as the enumerators are for
hidden, by the powers that be, to di-
vulge the result. It is probable that
the population Of the parish has in
creased several thousands, since 1890;
bat there are no Official figures to
confirm this surmise.

Consolidation Of the Tele.
graph and Telephone
Companies.

A New York special announces the
early consolidation Of the telegraph,
telephone and other electric linesain
the country into n gigantic COM
pany. Included in this are the West
ern Union Telegraph, the Postal Tele-
graph and the Belle Telephone COM
panies. The new corporation soon to
be organized, or already organized,
will Of course absolutely control all
communication by electricity in the
United States. The telegraph bust
ness has been already consolidated
and is controlled by two big compa-
MES, the Western Union and the Pos
tai, which, although they are separate
corporations, yet cooperate on fixing
rates, and have fixed them from two
to six times higher than the rates
paid in Europe. BY uniting themselves
into one company their control over
the business will of course be more
complete than ever. Nor will the
public be able to get any relief from
excessive telegraph tolls by using the
telephone, for this new electrict trust

These gentlemen do not have to pay

therefore, that they should not APP

proposing that the government re-
sumo its control over the telegraph,
such as it exercised during the early
days of the republic, and which most.
Of the European countries exercise.
to-day, It has been found impossible
to get It to a vote. The question
has been before Congress half a dozen
times, but it has by some mysterious
accident, been lost in committee or
pigeonholed every time.
It is 10 be hoped that the CONSOLE
dation Of the telegraph companies
will arouse Congress to action. The
advantages Of the postal telegraph,
conducted as part Of the ~postofice
service, is so well established that it
is not seriously called in question to-
day. The postal telegraph has long
since passed the experimental stage.
Every civilized government in the
world owns and controls its telegraph
and conducts it as part Of the post
Office except the United States; and
all Of them report that the arrange
ment is thoroughly satisfactory. Every
Postmaster General for years has
asked Congress to reassume control
Of the telegraph, and has pointed out
how easily it can be operated by the
government and how advantageous it
will be in all respects to-day. There
seems to be a better disposition on
the part Of the present Congress to
act in this matter than any previous
one. The public sentiment Of the
country in the matter of trusts and
the growing sentiment in favor Of
governmental control Of public func-
lions and franchises are probably re-
Isponsible. for the conviction that the
time has come for the United States
to operate its telegraph, as Great
Britain does, and thus assure its peo-
pie the same satisfactory service and
the same cheap tolls as other coun-
tries enjoy Times-D Democrat

The new town officials have not re-
ceived their commissions yet, and
some Of the boys are won@ hing what
has become Of them. The charter Of
the town Of Houma says that the new
officers shall take charge Of the town
on May LIST; but the failure Of the
commissions to reach here has made
it impossible for the spirit of the
charter to be carried out. The delay
in the Forwarding Of the commissions
for the municipal offices has caused
two of Houma's enterprisiRg citizens
to hold two Offices at one time, but as
one Of the Offices, that Of councilman,
is a legislative and not a constitution
al Office, there is no law against their
holding both.

Of Painful Disorders.
Dr. Miles Nervine.

When the nerves and organs of the
body are we'll and strong, and the
WORKOUT tissues and waste products
are quickly removed from the system,
a tremendous amount OF hard work
can be done without serious injury.
1t is when the nerve tissues and brain
cells are used up faster than they are
replaced by new ones, when the fires
of life consume faster than the fuel
can be furnished, that brain, nerves
and vital organs suffer--cry out with
neuralgia, heart disease, rheumatism,
nervous dyspepsia-and finally break
down. DR.. Miles Restorative Nerv-
inc is food for the WORKOUT brain and
wasted tissues. 1t gives a healthy
appetite; makes the weak stomach
strong; increases the flow OF digestive
juices and puts the lazy liver to work.
1t is the greatest blood vitallzer and
nerve remedy science has produced.

JOSEPH HELEUHE DEAD.
For Several Years Secretary to Elk
Queen Liliuokalapi.

Joseph Heleluhe, for many years pri-
vate secretary to Queen Liliuokalani,
died at about o'clock yesterday morn
ing. Consumption was the cause of
death. Deceased had suffered from this
disease a very long time. The funeral
took place in the afternoon, and the re-
mains were inferred in Kawaiahao
cemetery.
Heleluhe was born in Kau, Hawaii,
forty-five years ago, and received his
education in Mr.. Lymans school at
Hilo. When scarcely more than a boy
he was employed by King Kalakaua as
an undersecretary. He was retained in
office by Liliuokalani as private seCre-
tary, and after 1895 was given charge
of practically all of her affairs. On
both of the trips of the eX-Queen to
Washington, she was accompanied by
her faithful secretary. 1t was he who
arranged all interviews, and answered
calls for the former monarch, both here
and in Washington.
Deceased contracted consumption
some time ago, probably in Washington
At San Francisco in May he declined
rapidly, and upon arriving in Honolulu
had to be assisted to his home at Wal
kiki beach. There he sank, until DR..
English called in other physicians for
a consultation. On Saturday DR.. Hoff-
man expressed the opinion that the pa
tient would not last twenty-four hours
longer. 1t was then that a trait of the
deceased came out. He begged to be
taken back to Washington Place to die
in the presence of his queen. The pro-
cession started about o'clock Sunday
morning for the city, but when opposite
Sam Parker's place on King street, the
secretary breathed his last.
The funeral, which was held from
Washington Place, was attended by the
former queen and a concourse of
friends.
