Say young man there Is one thing
you cannot do. You can't make a sue
cess in life unless you work. Better
men than you have tried it and failed
you can't loaf around street corners,
saloons, smoke cigars tell foul stories,
drink whiskey, and sponge on some
one else without making failure in
life. You must learn trade or get
into some honest business, if you don't
you will be a chronic loafer despised
by all, producing nothing simply max
ing yourself burden on your parents
or the State. There is no place in the
world for loafers, the ripe fruit is all
at the top OF the tree and you must
climb If you get it, if you wait for it TO
fall at your feet you will never get it.
Smarter men will jump up and pluck
it all. Move, do something, no mat
ter how small it will be starter, help
yourself and others will help. There
is no royal path to success, toll, grit,
endurance, these are the requisites,
wake up and see what you can do.

A contemporary gives the following

A contemporary gives the following
advice which is both sensible and seas
enable: "The clearing up and disposal
of the dead leaves and other refuse
which will soon form part OF the spring
work of the average householder calls
attention to the need for extra precau-
tlon being taken against fires. The
carelessly watched bonfire, or one
which has been left smouldering may
be easily the cause OF an expensive con-
fagration, as the list of spring fires ev-
cry year furnishes abundant proof.
With the brisk winds which prevail at
this season of the year burning leaves
or bits of other debris may be blown
about to the damage OF ones own or
neighboring property. Children play
ing with matches constitute another
fruitful source of spring CONGREGATIONS,
while each year there is the casualty
list Of children who have played too
recklessly about bonfires. The bonfire
season is here at any rate, and careful
watching will prevent vain regrets"

Japanese Injured.

Two Japanese riding rapidly in opposite
directions on Waianuenue street yester-
day morning collided with serious results
Both We're thrown off and one sustained
injuries on the head that rendered him
unconscious. He was taken to the
no spital, where an examination by DR..
r. II. Reid disclosed fracture of the
inner plate of the skull. An effort was
made to raise the bone with but partial
success. Indications point to internal
injuries. and the physician has little
hope of his recovery. The injured man
is cane planter, residing in Kaumana,
near Gamalieson's place.-HiIo Herald.

compensation of Federal jurors in this
Territory or the mileage allowance. Cit
liens who go to Honolulu tomorrow as
jurors are not allowed enough as mile
age to pay their cabin passage on the
kinau and as they are obliged to wait
In Honolulu for several days before court
opens they are under expense without
any returns coming in. When the, sched-
Hle OF jury fees and mileage was ar
ranged it is not likely that the Kinau
was taken into consideration. In the
States the distance can be made on the
railways for about two cents a mile. here
it is about ten cents. Under the present
understanding each juror from Hilo is
out of pocket something like twenty
three dollars Independent of whatever
loss is incurred by him by his absence
from business.-Hilo Herald

the management of Mr., Vredenberg.
Samples of cane brought from there this

Kau, Hawaii, July %, 1901
Editor advertiser: Through the col
umns of your paper the residents of this
district desire to register a kick regard
ing the aggravating manner in which the
postal authorities are handling the mails.
The foreign mail that arrived in Homo
lulu on the 18th was detained in Hflo
thirty-siX hours, and was then forwarded
TO the Volcano House, where it was held
for thirtysiX hours more before being
forwarded, or a delay of three days more
than the time required Then again the
mail that arrived in Honolulu on the 9th
was sent to the Hamakua coast on the
18th, when our direct steamer Mauna
Loa left for our ports on the 18th Our
citizens were naturally disgruntled when
they found we We're minus our mail, and
our local postmaster kept the telephone
not till at last a wee small voice" said
there was bag of local mail at the great
OBTAINING station Cthe Volcano House,.
Upon thorough estgation, however,
II proved to be the missing bag and
by sending special messenger it was
received by us late in the evening. some
tn ty odd hours later than if it had come
oy our regular steamer, and had not a
special been sent for it We would have
h%u To wait two days longer. 1t seems
to US that a little interest should be felt
IN towns outside of Hilo ard Honolulu
ana II the mail agents here are not do
ing their duty they should be made TO
and II the arrangements are faulty thew
ShouId be corrected. II, would be a
nfst rate plan for the authorities in

where steamer is bound before throw

meyer q hisers Telegram.
NEW YORK, Sept. THE pressure to
sell at the opening was rather lighter than
had been expected. There were no symp-
toms Of panic, and many commission
houses seemed to have buying orders The
initial declines ranged from 8 to points
But the supporting orders quickly brought
about a rally. and for while the market
seemed to be fairly steady. The rally, how
ever. disclosed the fact that although the
selling orders at the market were smaller
In volume than had been expected there
was a very large number of selling orders
at limits somewhat above the opening
prices. When IL became evident that these
limits would not be reached they were in
most instances either reduced or made to
sell at the market and this resulted in a
renewed decline, which continued practical
~ without interruption up to the close The
disposition TO llQuidate was intensified by
the publication of the bank statement
which showed a decrease in surplus re-
serve Of over 100000, bringing the surplus
down below $HOO0,O0O. The decrease of
over ten millions in loans a surprise,
as was also the decrease in deposits of over
s2O,0OOOOO. On the whole the showing was
disappointing, and the position Of the banks
Is rather weak, considering that further
Withdrawals by the interior are inevitable
IN connection with the movement of crops.
No doubt, however, some relief will be
afforded by importations of gold and
should the financial situation become really
critical the clearing house committee, which
was in session most of this morning, would

the Presidents Illness will hang over the
market for some time to come; and prob
ably will result in declining market.

UNCLE SAM Is INDEPENDENT.
He Can Live i'm Luxury without the
Aid of Any Other Country.
Saturday Evening Post


Ours is the country in the world that
could get along in perfect comfort without
any foreign trade at all OF course, II is
impossible for any conceivable combination
TO deprive US OF all our commerce-the bulk
of il would remain after continental Eu-
rope had done its worst-but If every dol
lars worth OF il should disappear we could
continue TO supply ourselves with every
necessary and luxury Of life.
\ few thousand farmers who now raise
wheat for export would devote their land to
sugar beets and pastures for blOoded sheep
Our tea farms in South Carolina would pass
from the experimental TO the commercial
stage. our cotton acreage would be some
what reduced. and flax and silk would be
produced instead. The cultivation OF coffee
would be encouraged in Porto Rico, Hawaii
and the Philippines. Factories would be
built FOR the production OF fine textiles
glassware and metal goods that we now i'm
port from Europe.
The destruction OF our forests would be
checked by the stoppage of exports of lum-
Der. The deserts OF Arizona. New Mexico
and southern California would be redeemed
to give us the semi-tropical products of the
Mediterranean. and our island possessions
could supply us with everything that we
now draw from South America and Africa
The gold OF Alaska and OF our Western
States and Territories would more than
supply all our financial needs In short. this
Republic is a world, planet IN itself in
dependent OF any and all other countries.

Dull AND A SHADE DOWN
SPECULATIVE GRAIN MARKETS
SHOW But LITTLE CHANGE.
Only Slight Effect of the Buffalo Trag-
edy-Provisions Fairly steady
and Little Lower.

CHICAGO. Sept THE leading specula-
tive markets ruled quiet and slightly lower
to-day No material depression of prices
due TO the Presidents condition was no
tceable, the low price level being due 10
causes chiefly local. Wheat closed sc.
corn &c and oats sc lower for December
delivery. Provisions closed but slightly
changed.
The usual disposition to do as little trad
ing as possible pending the Sunday holiday
was noticeable in the wheat pit. The
opening was easy. December &c to nc low
er at 705sc 10 707sc, under the influence OF
liberal Northwest receipts and lower
cables. Covering by shorts sent the price
TO &c early, but feeling was bearish and
selling for the Northwest account in
fiuenced liquidation for the local account.
December declined to 7Ol4u70Ssc, and closed
weak, sc lower, at 1Ol2c. Primary receipts
were $4,000 bu. compared with l,343,0O last
year. Local receipts were 2O2 cars, Z OF
contract grade; Minneapolis and Duluth re-
ported $40 cars making a total for the
three points of LIP cars, against LII last
year. Seaboard clearances We're $4,000 bu;
Favorable weather conditions induced
selling of corn throughout the curtalled
Saturday session. Private crop reports
were bullish, but the liquidation was too
torceful To allow of more than temporary
shows of firmness. There was a moderate
cash demand and somewhat free country
acceptances. The only effect of the Presi-
dents condition on the market was selling
for Eastern interests. December sold be-
| tween 67Ssc and 56sc, and closed nc lower
| at size. Receipts were 367 cars.
Oats were quiet, prices declining with
| corn. December ranged between S5isQ35lc
| and 34$4 Q347sc, and closed sc down at 3i7sc.
There was a fair demand for provisions,
| led by packers. The selling pressure was
| quite heavy at one time, in sympathy with
| hogs. but the tide was stemmed by local
support, and the close, while slightly lower
| on the average, was fairly steady. Pork
| closed 21ac lower at $15.671R; lard, 2izc high
| er at $9.15, and ribs sc down at $S.071a.
Estimated receipts on Monday: Wheat,
200 cars; corn, 395; oats, 175; hogs. $1,000
