American safes. In a report on the
subject Consul Kennedy tells that there
were in the offices OF the concern six
safes, one English, one German, one
French one Portuguese and two of
American manufacture. These were all
placed together in the center OF the
second floor. After the fire il was
found that the Portuguese safe was a
complete wreck. and fell to pieces when
touched Its contents were totally de-
stroyed, and the same was true OF the
French and German safes. The English
safe contained, in addition to valuable
books and papers, 200 contos in Bra
lillian currency, equivalent to about
sI75, 00O This safe was opened only
after the greatest difficulty, and the
money was found to be in an almost
unacceptable, charred and pulpy
mass, and the remaining contents were
a total loss. There is little hope OF re-
covering anything of the money thus
damaged by fire and water. When the
American safes were opened their con-
tents were found perfectly intact
money. books and papers being little, if
any, the worse for the ordeal through
which they had passed. There could
not have been a more convincing Illus
tration of the superior quality of the
American product.

was not the sum of her offending; for

One of the good things about a disci-
plined church, such as the Roman
Catholic and the EpiscopaIian, is that
no stranger gets into a pulpit unless
he has a Bishop or some other respon-
sible authority behind him. Whoever
hears of travelling impostor in the
pulpit OF either branch OF the Catholic
faith? He or she cannot break in But
IL is too often true of the evangelistic
churches that any one with a SNUG
face and a clerical information and a
letter or two which may have been
forged, is permitted to wreak himself
upon the sympathies and the pocket
books Of the congregation.

CELL AND OTHERS.

The case OF Edgar Cell. who went
from the hospitality of Honolulu
homes and pulpits to defame the town,
should lead our local pastors to give
more scrutiny than has been their re-

visitors. For a long time after Ham

What the Kidneys Are For.
WHAT DOsKS BAGKAGHE KIDNEY PILLS Do

It's the duty of the kidneys to see
that the blood keeps pure
Not to make new blood-the food we
eat does that, but to remove from the
blood all the poisons and impurities
the waste matter-that is gathered up
during its circuit of the body.
These poisons are deadly.
II they are not taken out of the
blood by the natural filters, the kid
neys, they are carried back to the
heart, and are started out again all
through the body.
OF course they cause disease.
We can't be healthy if our blood isn't
pure.
When our kidneys are sick our back
aches. That's a way they have of tell
ing US they need help.
It's the duty of Doan's Backache Kid
ney Pills to cure sick kidneys.
They know their duty well.
They are performing it here in Ho-
nolulu.
Here's case In point:
Mr.. H. H. Smythe, OF Inter-Island
S. S. Co., this city. writes to tell us
that he was afflicted with a lame back
for a number of years. Assembling the
cause of this to the kidneys and hear

Pills, got some of them at the Hollis
ter Drug Co.'S store. They relieved me
so much that 1 am perfectly satisfied
with the result of having taken them,
and can recommend the pills to others.

Doan's Backache Kidney Pills are
becoming popular in Honolulu be-
cause they are always endorsed by Ho-
nolulu people.

they remove about 500 grains OF i'm
pure matter daily. When unhealthy

Murphy q Co.'S Grain Letter.

Chicago. Oct. 22.-Liquidation- by tir-
ed longs and general selling by COM
mission houses was the cause of the
decline in December wheat. Among
the best early sellers were several
prominent commission houses. Fair
buying on the decline resulted in
little recovery, but the principal sup
port was given the May option. Deem
Der was inclined to drag and recovered
but little of the loss. Conditions were
mostly bearish.
The announcement of liquidation of
Armours line of December corn was
the signal for a selling movement in
corn, resulting in a break of one and
half in December, May declining only
about half cent. Prominent commission
houses were among the sellers. At the
decline there was very good demand
and Armour gave the market some
support. Local shorts also covered in
December. This resulted in recovery
of a good part of the loss. Weather
conditions were a weakening influence

New York, Oct. 22.-The market was
narrow and professional with business
Slightly under yesterdays record. At
the start there were few rallies, but
the market soon turned downward and
prices lost l per cent in some instan-
ces. After the first hour dullness pre-
vailed. Call money continued to be
easy and there were no developments
in the foreign market to justify fears
of immediate gold shipments. That
contingency, however, seemed to be the
factor which checked the speculation
and inclined the trading element to
liquidate to a small extent. In the af-
ternoon prices rallied on covering of
shorts who were induced to change
their position because of failure of any
liquidation of importance to appear. In
the general list the late rally was frac-
tional, just as the previous fall had
been confined within small limits. The
improvement was not held fully to the
close, dullness again set in with the
final transactions and prices sagged off
in spiritless fashion. The market
closed listless and slightly heavy in
tone.
