The Beef Trust Suits.


The United States grand jury at
New Orleans, which has been investi-
eating the alleged beef trust, has been
finally dismissed, no Indictment hav-
ing been returned. It is believed in
structions from Washington have been
received to take the action made in
dismissing the grand jury, and that the
whole status of the alleged beef trust,
so far as the government is concern
ed at Washington, will be determined
by the proceedings now under way at
Chicago-an Injunction against the
alleged trust, brought under the pro-
visions Of the Sherman act. This in
junction is chancery proceeding, and
was instituted by the attorney general
of that State and the district attorney
for Chicago.

Spring fever is another name for bilious
ness. It is more serious than most people
think. A torpid liver and inactive bowels

serious illness may follow such symptoms.

danger by stimulating the liver, opening
the bowels and cleansing the system Of

Editor Advertiser:-I notice in Sat
urday's Advertiser an invitation to non
church going people to give their rea-
sons for not attending church. 1 will
give my reasons based on personal ex-
p~erience only. 1 have attended one or
more of the different churches in Ho-
nolulu at different times but not reg
ular, but 1 came to the conclusion to
do so no more under any circumstances,
and my reasons are this: First, you
are surrounded by a good many people
who pretend they are glad to see you
quaintance with some of them you can
plainly see that it is all put on with
the majority of them. Second, you
will, on going to church, become ac-
quainted with a number of people who
are very glad to see you at church, will
shake hands and inquire after your
to meet them on the street a few days
later they don't know you and in some
cases try every way possible to avoid
you. Third, there are a good many
people attending church who to put it
straight, are Sunday Christians and
Monday Devils, and it is such people
that try to make people believe they
are the whole thing, but to people whc
know them it is all a fake and thor
oughly disgusting. If people in the
islands expect others to attend church
they should be sincere in their preten-
sions of friendship, and not lead PEG.
pie to think that they are friends wher
in reality they only care for you while
you are putting your dime or quarter
in the contribution box.
