They are in town, Ben Bruins and his
wonderful dog. The comedian came
down on the Ventura, and the dog
showed up on the streets yesterday
morning with a small tag on his
neck that indicated that he had
been in the keeping Of transfer COM
pany somewhere. 1t didn't make any
difference to the dog "Dudy," as his
master calls him, is a well-behaved
animal who takes the sings and ar
rows of outrageous fortune much as his
master does. That is, he throws off the
sings, and catches the arrows and
shoots them back. When man has
been doing patent medicine stunts over
a country as large as the whole United
States. islands and all, for a few years,
1t is a pretty outrageous kind of for
tune, indeed, that finds him not prepar-
ed to take it at the flood and do about
as much with it as another man in his
place.
Every body In Honolulu knows Ben,
and the dog has a stump-tailed kind of
friendliness about him that wins in a
walk. He is a well-behaVed fox terrier,
the dog is, with black and white body
that seems to be alive to the uttermost
hair on the EXTREMIST tip of the stump |
Of a tail. And he is without pride, is |
the dog, although he does a trick that
raised him above all dogs of ancient |
and modern times. The dog has been

dIRLHOOD's PERTLs.

"Sweet sixteen" is an age of
which poets have sung raptu-
rously. Mothers know that girl
hood is not all romance and
roses. The growing girl needs
plenty of strength to fit her for
the duties of maturity. There
is but one real source of strength,
and that is digested food. But
SO many lassies in the early teens
will not eat what is good for
them; they have no appetite,
they say, and even when they do
force food down their threats,
it disagrees with them. Hence
they are gaunt, white faced and
narrow-shouldered. Kind friends
of the family remark that the
darling of the household is 60
ing into a decline, or that she
looks as if galloping consump-
ton might get hold of her some
day. Let no mother be scared.
Thousands of just such slender,
debilitated, fragile girls have
grown into rosy, handsome, ro-
bust women because they built
and toned themselves up with
WAMPOLE'S PREPARATION
which is palatable as honey and
contains the nutritive and Gu
rative properties of Pure Cod
Liver Oil, combined with the
Compound Syrup of Hypophog-
phites and the Extracts of Malt

that plain cod liver oil does in
making flesh and blood and does
it better. DR.. p. A. David, Pro-
fessor of Chemistry, Bishops
College, Montreal, says: "I have
used your preparation of cod
liver oil both in my hospital
and private practice, with results
uniformly satisfactory, and con-
slider it one of the best recon
structiye tonics before the pro-
fession to-day; its palatabiIity is
also a most important and at
tractive feature" AS sure of VIC

that as he understood the message all

Yesterday the National Bank OF Ha-

various denominations, as follows: Dol
lars, $4,000; half dollars, $4,000; quar-
tiers, 10000; dimes, IS, 900. This was the
first shipment of United States money
received to begin the work Of redemp-

of the bank at p. m, various banks
had passed over the counter $4,000 in
Hawaiian coins of the denominations of
dollars and halves, which were paid for
in United States coins out Of the $1,000.
Cashier Cooper had only the day be-
fore asked for 100000 in United States

leap from the dizzy top of it into a net,
and this trick he does every night, and
does it as though he seems to like it.
And that is why Ben is proud. if the
! dog is not. He is proud of the dog,
with reason. Most men have a call to
be prouder OF their dogs than their dogs
can be of them, which is the nercest
kind of pessimism. Ben is not a pes
simist, however, and the dog likes him,
which is another good point in the
man.
1t had been Ben's intention to bring
patent medicine troupe to the Islands
this trip, but he reconsidered that and
came down alone to sort of spy out the
land and see how much 1t would take
and give. 1t will take all of Ben there

but he will tell everybody about that.
The matter of public interest now is
that Ben Bruins is here-and the dog

The Hawaiian coins received by the

United States treasury in San Fran

TRIAL IS
POSTPONED
Wright Trial viii Not
Take Place for a
Week.

The trial of the case of B. H. Wright
charged with embezzlement, was yes
terday continued by Judge De Bolt to
one week from Monday upon motion of
counsel for defendant. At the opening
of the term counsel for defendant was
insistent for immediate trial, but there
appears now to be change of heart
J. ]. Dunno appeared for Wright in
the application for a continuance and
]. w. Cathcart represented the Terri
tory. There was no objection on his
part to continuance to February 18th,
and the Boyd cases were therefore post
poned to await the conclusion of the
Wright trial.
1t is thought that the trial of Wright
will take at least a week and perhaps
longer. The defense will be, so it is
claimed, that the money collected by
Wright and which he is charged with
embezzling was received by him as chief
clerk and turned over to Boyd, his SUI
perior in office, or paid out for purposes
ordered by the superintendent of Pub
lie Works. Wright has steadfastly de-
MED his guilt and claimed that he did
not take any of the money missing from
the Department of Public Works
On the other hand it is reported that
Boyd's defense will be on the same lines
as Wright excepting that he will claim
that all the money which he is charged
with embezzling was paid over to B. H.
Wright, and never passed through his
hands.

honorable and all that.
But the incident from govern
mental standpoint has been closed.
Count E. Reuentlow, lieutenent gen.
eral in the Prussian army, has come
back at Dewey, with a ROLAND for
his Oliver, and 1t would seem that
this quid pro quo insult ought to
place the former relationship be-
tween the two nations in statu quo.
The Berliner Tageblatt Endorses this
counter insult and declares that our
battleships are antiquated and moth
ing more than old hulks, that our
sailors lack morale, and that our ma
rlnss desert and mutiny by the whole
sale. 1t satirically refers to us as
braggarts filled with youthful impu-
dence, and winds up by Boosting
that the German navy is the better,
and will sink all our fleets to the
bottom of the sea when the proper
time arrives.
Two insults in a case like this
ought to make peace and not war.
They should neutralize each other.
Both sides have broken even, and
so the affair had better be consider
ed at an end.-Kansas City Journal.

The Milwaukee Speech.

The President in his speech at
Milwaukee, showed in very con-
elusive manner that the Republl-
cans in the last congress were sin
cere and earnest in their desire to
curb the evil tendencies of the trusts
and that already much good is be-
ing accomplished in that line. The
cry of the Democratic party has
been all the time that the Republi-
cans were insincere and that they
were only advocating measures for
effect. Measures that they did not
intend TO enact into law and meas
ures which if enacted would not be
effective.
In his speech he showed that laws
had been enacted which seemed to
give all desired publicity to the bus

mess of these large concerns and
hedge them around with the neces-
sary safe guards. The most import
ant of these the President thinks is
| the act of creating the department
of commerce and labor. The Elk
ms law was referred to as an act
calculated to stop freight discrlmi-
nations and break up the rebate
system. The President also show
ed that the Executive department
had not been idle. Four important
actions have been begun by the
Attorney General under the Sher-
man law. The cases against the
Northern Securities Co., the pack
ing companies, the Southern rail
roads which had agreed to divide
the cotton shipments, and the Fed
eral Salt Co. and other salt compa'
nies composing the salt trust. Some
of these cases are still pending.
The packers have been prevent
ed from forming their merger, the
Southern railroad pool has been
broken, resulting in great benefit to
the Southern planter; the salt trust
is wiped out. These things show
that the Republicans were some
what sincere and that tn ey saw the
evil and knew the remedy and had
the nerve to apply it. That seems
to be one great distinctive differ
erence between the Democratic and
Republican parties. The Demo-
cratic party can frequently see an
evil and rail loud and long about 1t
but can rarely tumble to the rem
edy. If few of the brighter ones
do see the proper remedy, the party
has not the nerve or backbone to
put 1t into effect. About all the
policy this wonderful party has had
for many years is the policy of kick
| ing on what the Republicans do.

Dewey Again.

The Germans are at quits with the
Americans: Dewey, coming from
his club late one night recently,
dropped the remark that our navy,
man for man and ship for ship, was
better than the kaiser's, and in case
of war could thrash it off the water.
The president summoned Dewey to
the White House and asked if this
was so. Dewey said it was, and was
thereupon promptly warned not to
say it again. The Teutons, how
ever, we're not satisfied. They be-
lieved that the admiral had intention
ally knocked the chip off their Shout
der and they wanted him reprimand-
ed and humiliated; and unless this
was done they limited at cessation
of diplomatic relations, and threat
ened to take back the statue OF Fred
erick the Great and the little gifts
whicf William made to Theodore,
and to declare officially that the Wis
it of Prince Henry to the United
States did not in fact ever happen.
1t certainly looked squully for a
time, and also as if we should have

Opportunities
in the South.

No portion of the United
States has made greater prog
ress in the last year or two
than the South. Northern
and foreign capital is rapidly
invading that section, finding
profitable investment in the
various industries and factori-
es that are being rapidly deyel-
oped and built. The great in-
fux of settlers is creating an
increased demand for lands Of
all kinds and prices are grad
ually advancing, as they will
for years to come. Work is
plentiful and poverty practi-
cally unknown. Alabama is
supplying the coal and iron to
all the world. More money
can be made and with less la
