New York-Manila Mail Service.

The much wished for and long ex-
pected change in the transport service
is about to be consummated, by the
establishing of a line of transports
sailing from New York to Manila via
suez, says. the Manila Times. This
much desired move has been in con-
temptation for some time, but the au-
thorities could not make the change
until the movement of the volunteers
homeward had been accomplished.
This being now finished the great de-
mand for trans-Pacific boats has ceas-
ed and It has been found that several
of the crack transports can now be
utilized on the New York run. The
two first boats to be assigned to this
run are the Buford and fitzpatrick,
both well known to Honolulans. The
schedule will be arranged for each of
these transports to make two trips a
year Upon the arrival of the Buford at
Manila from San Francisco, she will
be prepared for her first trip. As soon
as more transports are available they
will be added to the fleet.

THIS is A LOCAL ITEM
Aud the Citizen is on the Spot to
Confirm 1t.


The reader of this must concede two
important points-frst, that which fol-
lows, having taken place IN Honolulu,
can easily be investigated and proved
to be true; second, there is vast diff
ference between opinions publicly eX-
pressed by resident of Honolulu in
Honolulu local papers and the opin-
ions daily met with in the same papers
columns which were originally drafted
in Maine or Montana. Read the fol-
lowing:
Mr.. S. Hanoland, of this city, is a
Custom House guard. He writes:
Having been afflicted with an aching
back for some time, I procured a sup
ply of Doan's Baekache Kidney Pills
at HOLSTER & Co.'s store. and used
them. The results were most satisfac-
tory and I know that the pills are a
valuable medicine for kidney COM
plants and especially for lame back. "
Is there anything stronger than
home testimony? The following are
some of the results and Indications of

" ACONIA, July 25.-The price of su-
gar in the local market has drop
ped 90 points during the last week,
making a difference of one-half cent
per pound in all grades. This is the
lowest price at which sugar has sold
fer a number of years and came as a
SUI prise to a number Of dealers in the
face of reports from the East that the
tendency was to go higher. This is the
season of the year when sugar rules the
highest, as there is the greatest de-
mand during the fruit season.
The cause of the sudden slump Is said
by local dealers TO be due to the large
visible supply.
There are prospects of more beet su-
gar being produced in the States Of
washington. Oregon and California
than ever before, and more than canbe
consumed on the Coast. There is also
a large importation from Germany and
the north of ireland, and it would not
surprise the aB.alers If the price would
go even lower
The present low price viii stimulate
the canning of fruit. as the cost OF the
s,.oor fs about one-half the canning ex-
pease.
A theory advanced by one prominent
dealer is that the sugar kings are en-
gagged in a war.
It is said that the Western Sugar Re-
Inine Co. and the California & Hawai-
an Sugar Co are not working IN mar
n onv and that a breach of faith on the
mart of one of the companies has engeh-
dered the friction which has resulted
in the present decline.

possible consequence which may logically

gress need not observe the principle of

his house, that the sick man lacked
anything that loving sympathy and
tender solicitude could suggest. The
deep velvet carpet gave back no sound
under the feet of those who moved
around him; curtains Of damask and
lace softened the too direct rays of
light which entered the long windows
across the balcony; bits OF landscape
and color relieved the wide expanse
OF wall; and flowers lent freshness
and fragrance TO the soft spring air
sparingly admitted.
The old man was haggard from
loss of rest and from apprehension.

dissolved and hurried towards him.

CHAPTER vi.

In all the throng that followed To
the grave in Hollywood the remains
OF the wealthy and once distinguished
John Brookin there was, aside from
| family servants, but one sincere
mourner. The slender figure Of his
daughter Frances, supported by the
strong arm of DIR. Brodnar, shook
with an agony of grief. She had not
looked ON death since her mother
died, and the passing of the sanity
woman had been but as sleep pro-
longed into eternity. But here was
the consciousness OF a great wrong:
the discovery Of an error beyond rem

has never been raised here in vain.
But in the cities of the older civiliza-
ton. hopeless poverty, and veritable
starvation are found side by side with
unbounded wealth and the most lavish
expenditure.
The text for these remarks is furnish
ed by paragraph in Boston paper
which described the suicide of young
seamstress whose body was found
floating in the bay. She owed three
weeks rent and had nothing to eat.
She could get no work, and she cut the
tangled skein of life by going out of it.
The tale is BADLY told, mere ordinary
incident of city life. But what COM
ment upon our civilization.
We have had centuries of Christian
teaching, we have had centuries of
scientific teaching, we have had CEN
turtles of political and social expert
ence, and yet we cannot meet such
questions as these. The opportunity to
live and to earn bread enough to eat
is denied to many and many one in
the great cities. Is it any wonder that
the socialistic idea is implanted very
strongly in the old countries. 1t is the
effort to meet such cases, and sweep
them from the face of the globe. When
will we find the way which will give
us a form of civilization where want
and starvation shall be no more. and
where all can be smiling and happy.
We certainly have not found the way
yet. Theory is ever busy with the pro-
blem, and sometimes the theories are
put into practice upon a small scale,
but they always fail-and the worst
of the problem is that the higher and
more refined the civilization, the more
glazing do these frightful anomalies of
immense wealth and helpless poverty
become.

AN INSTITUTION.

Honolulu has some institutions pc
culiarly its own. Not that other places
have not institutions similar to Them
but our Island population takes them
and refashions them and shapes them
to it's own view. In probably no city
in the United States would such a
gathering be found as attended the chill
dren's fancy dress ball at the Drill
Shed, last Saturday evening.
Every city has its dancing schools
and it's dancing class, but the closing
exercises only attract the particular
friends of the children, and mostly
their female relatives. But the con-
Guiding entertainment of Mrs. Gums
dancing school is really a society event,
and attracts both young and old. rich
and poor, those who have children and
those who don't have children, the old
kamaaina and the stranger within our
gates.
And it must be confessed that no
prettier sight and no more inspiring
could be enjoyed than that of these chill
dren, the future men and women of our
Island race. 1t is good sometimes to
draw away from the business, the cares,
the politics of life and throw oneself in
to the enjoyment of the young and the
innocent. What could be prettier than
these little tots in their gay costumes,
enjoying every moment of their bright
display, and showing the grace and
lack of self consciousness which is the
most charming attribute of youth.
No paid dancing ballet, no highly
trained body of professional dancers
could give the pleasure and charm to
thoroughly as these children from our
own homes could give and afford.
Nothing, either, could show how fully
our various races mingle than this
pleasant entertainment. Native Ha-
waiian. part Hawaiian, descendants of
Puritans ancestors, German, British, in
fact all our varied nationalities were
represented. 1t showed the republican,
ism of the place and also it's cosmopoli-
tanism.
Yes, the dance of the city's children
has come to be quite an institution and
long may it remain such upon it's pres
ent lines. They are good lines, kindly
lines, and they inspire an interest in
every class of the community. We can
all meet upon the common platform of
love for our little ones.
