Gods artillery filled all space.

with large quantities of naturally al

The First Local Mint.

One OF the institutions here
which has the special attention of
tourists as we'll as the. local people
is the Mint, which Ms established on
Nuuanu street, opposite Queen
Emma Hall. 1t is interesting to
enter the large main working room
where general manager McDonough
and his corps of assistants are at
work. The cool and large lanai is a
proper resting place and the vaults,
where the "bars" to be minted and
beer are kept present a very tasty
spectacle. The Mint is open from
5:3O \. m. to 11:30 p. m, and during
those hours the work never ceases,
Visitors after looking over the place
will find first class refreshments and
the purest OF liquors,

RESIGNS AFTER LONG SERVICE.
Captain Ben Brown to Leave Police
Department.

Captain Ben Brown to Leave Police
Department.
Captain Ben Brown Of the local
police force rendered his resignation
to Sheriff Andrews on Tuesday last,
aud will retire from duty tomorrow.
The captain gives as his reason for
rslinguishing his post i'll health and
desire to have a nights rest without
being ION call" at all times.
He was hrst appointed captain
on the police force by Sheriff Sever
auce in 1881, aud in 1884, when Ka-
ulukou was appointed Sheriff, he
rendered his personal selection for
the place. On leaving the depart
ment Captain Brown. went into the
the tax Office with Frank Pahia, the
then Tax Assessor. He remained in
that position for two years and then
was associated with Daniel Porter
in the collection OF taxes. On jan
uarY 10Th, he was appointed by
Governor Baker to his old position
on the police force, and on that
same day the late E. g. Hitchcock,
who was in Honolulu at the time,
received his commission as Sheriff
Of this island. Since that time the
genial Captain has faithfully per-
formed the duties OF his Office.
During his term Of service he has
accumulated some property and has
acquired an interest in canoe fish
cries, Some OF his Olaa land is plant
cd to cane, which will be cropped
next year. He will spend most OF
his time in future at his Olaa home

1T ISN'T SO.

Advertiser Makes Uncalled for In
situations Against Police De-
partment.
1t isn't necessarily 20 because you
see it in the Advertiser. That
newspapers sporting news are usu-
ally tolerably accurate aud rarely
stupidity misleading. Now and
then, however, the Advertiser gets
tangled up as to its facts. This was
the case this morning paper when on
the impulse ofsome unknown motive
said that "Any odds against Weeday
should be profitable investment,
but there is always the danger. that
should the pet OF the force appear
to be getting the worst OF it at any
stage OF the game, the police may
wax over-epthusiastic and step in
and stop the CONTEST"
Now the Advertiser knew that it
had no reason whatever to make
such insinuations against the local
police department. The contest, a
scientific one, will take place under
the auspices OF the Honolulu Athlc-
tic Club and will be fought on its
merits. The police will be present
and "step in and stop the contest"
il there are any infraction OF the
rules no matter who the guilty one
may be. We believe Lon Agnew to
be perfectly able to take care OF
himself and will not need any assist
ance from the police.
The Eleventh is national holt
day and the people Of this city
will enjoy themselves accordingly.
There will be sports and amuse-
ments for everybody, and those
that do not care for races or ex-
hibitions OF the manly art OF self
defense, may take in the Central
Union Church picnic, or go with
Secretary Brown of the Y. M. @. A.
AWAY up in the mountains" And
now take your choice and leave us
in Foace.

are current around that building

the real postmaster is one OF the
clerks. He is cashier, postmaster,
chief clerk, special prosecuting at
torney, Judge advocate and general
manager all in one. No less than
20 employees have resigned from
the Postoffice during the past few
months, and strange to say, they all
have the same complaints to make.
Others who have not resigned, be-
cause they don't see their way
clear to make a living in Honolu-
lu are living in a continuous state
OF terror.
For the least breach OF dis
cipline, for the smallest infraction OF
the rules, clerks and carriers are
suspended for weeks at a time. OF
the original carriers who inaugural

J.A. Durant, the launchmau, had
a narrow escape from drowning last
evening. AS the shades OF evening
began to fall, he started out for the
ship Acme, which was lying outside
the harbor waiting for crew. A
heavy sea was running at the en-
trance to the channel, and on his
return, about 8 p. m, his boat was
swamped. He was rescued from
drowning by a Japsnese sampan
who was near by, but lost his boat
