A Musical Treat.

Our item last week concerning
the concert given by the Union City
Concert Band was published incom-
plete. Part of the copy was acci-
dentally misplaced before the COM
positor finish I'd the take" and it
was overlooked entirely by mistake.
In this we spoke of the cornet solo
rendered by Mr. A. j Hunziker, of
Hickman. His selection was "Ar-
buckelenianPolka, with variations,
cadenzas, etc, of very difficult
character. All that Mr.. Hunziker
lacked in execution was the prac-
tice of a professional artist. His
tones we're taultless. They were
round and rich in volume and color.
Hearty applause followed his first
appearance and then he favored the
audience with song. This was
also done with the warmth and
feeling which is accomplished only
by thorough musicians. Mr.. Hun
ziker certainly made many friends
in the audience that night and we
regret that this part of the article
failed to reach the readers last
week.

was here for few days this week.
The Colonel says that, after a
strong and steady pull, he has
firmly established the Mayors tire
setter as a successful invention in
many portions of the United States
and that the future of the machine
is no longer matter of speculation
but of profitable investment. The
sales are increasing very rapidly
and the Colonel confidently expects
next years returns to be several
times larger in volume than this.
He has been handicapped with the
failure of the factory to supply him
with machines. Next year he will
overcome this by establishing
his own factory and headquarters.
Henry Mayors is man, every inch
Of him. Union City never had a
more useful citizen, and there are
hundreds here who feel a personal
pleasure in his good fortune.

Governor Carter's last official acc
before leaving the capitol to take the
Alameda this morning,-perhaps his
last act as governor and perhaps not
was to sign a proclamation turning
over a square mile Of land to the fed
eral government for the use of the lep-
rosarium. The land is in four pieces
as selected by Surgeon General Walter
Wyman, U. S. NJ H., on his recent trip
to the settlement.
The proclamation is entitled "Reser-
walton of Land for the Purpose of Es-

The preamble sets forth the powers
of transferring land as conferred upon
the Governor of Hawaii by the Organic
Act, the act of Congress providing for
the Molokai station, and the choice Of
the sites by DR.. Wyman, and then dl-
rects the transfer in the following
language:
"Now therefore, I, George r. Carter.

departure of Allen has given rise to
two stories.
one story is to the effect that an ex-
animation of the will by the San Fran
ciscoa ttorney has failed to show any
weak point upon which an attack may
be made and that Mrs. Allen has refus-
ed to make him any allowance at pres
ent, TO this in hinged the additional
rumor that his adopted mother has told
the young man that if he will make
good and lead a life somewhat differ
ent from that he has led, she will look
after him in the future, as soon as she
is assured that he means what he says.
The other rumor is that Mrs. Allen
has made a settlement on the wayward
adopted son on the understanding that
he does not come back to Honolulu and
that he leads a respectable life. This
last rumor obtains the more general
Credence.
Allen himself would say nothing
when seen this morning just before t.
Alameda pulled out. He would neither
deny nor affirm either of the rumors.
