In looking over the accounts II has
become apparent TO Secretary Shaw
that some drastic action should be ta-
ken toward reducing the expenses or
the bureau. The tonnage tax upon yes
sells heretofore has betrayed the ex-
pense Of the service, and for many
years did so but OF recent years, treas
ury officials allege. there has been an
unwarranted extravaganza in manage
ment which has resulted In exhausting
a surplus OF nearly s1,OOOOOO, until last
year there was a deficit Of 100000, when
Congress made an appropriation of
A0O 0OO-s20O,OOO for last year and the
same sum for this.
Secretary Shaw calls attention to the
fact that last year appropriations were
made for the establishment of marine
hospitals at Buffalo and Pittsburg with
out his advice. He has recommended
that these hospitals, among others, be
abandoned. Surg.-Gen. Wyman has
many strong friends in Congress, and
the fight between him and the secre-
tary of the treasury is apt TO create
bad feeling in many directions.

DONE BY TRYING.

Nobody can tell what he can
do till he tries. When thing
ought to be done the modern
spirit moves us to keep working
away at it until it is done. In
the face of this idea the "impos-
sible" vanishes. Where there's
a will, there's a way. "If we
could but rob cod liver oil of
its sickening taste and smell and
then combine it with two or
three other ingredients we should
possess the best remedy in the
world for certain diseases that
are now practically incurable."
So said famous English physi-
clan twenty-five years ago. "But
it will never be DONE" he added.
"You can no more turn cod liy-
er oil into a palatable medicine,
than you can turn the Goldfish
itself into Bird of Paradise"
Yet he lived to admit that in
WAMPoLE'S PREPARATION
the "impossible" had been ac-
complished. 1t is palatable as
honey and contains all the nu-
tritive and curative properties of
Pure Cod Liver Oil, extracted
by us from fresh cod livers, COM
bined with the Compound Syrup
of Hypophosphites, Extracts Of
Malt and Wild Cherry. This
remedy is freed from the bad
peculiarities DR.. rockingham so
detested, and it is precisely the
splendid medicine he wished for.
Use it freely and confidently for
Hysteria, Wasting Complaints,
Anemia, Blood Impurities, Asth-
ma, and Throat and Lung Trou-
bles. DR.. W. II. B. Atkins, Ply
sician to Toronto General Hos
pital, says: 81 am much pleased
to state that the results from
using Wampole's Preparation Of
Cod Liver Oil have been uni
formly satisfactory; it appealed
to me as being prepared accord
ing to correct scientific princi-
pies" 1t increases the appetite
and influences the digestion OF
food; it is delicious to take, will
not disappoint you, and is effec-
tive from the first dose.* One bot

SALVATION ARMY
CHRISTMAS TREE

The newsboys Of the city filed the
Salvation Army hall Christmas even
ing at 6 o'clock. While they listened
to short prayer arranged for them,
they feasted their eyes on a beautifully
trimmed Christmas tree, gotten up for
their benefit. The boys were well be-
haved and seemed to understand and
appreciate the spirit that prompted the
kind people of Honolulu to make 1t
possible for the Salvation Army to sup
ply them with the Christmas treat so.
dear to every child. After each boy
had received his toy, apple, orange and
box of candy, the lads marched out,
and soon the hall was empty, but in a.
little while to be filled again by a crowd
of people who heartily enjoyed the pro-
gram, which consisted of Christmas
songs and drills by the children; also.
songs and recitations by the young
people.
Each one present was remembered
with little gift, and many of the boys
who were far away from their homes.
and friends, were reminded that here
in Honolulu there are those who are in
terested in them.
In every way the Christmas tree was
a great success, and the Salvation
Army extends its hearty thanks to all
the kind friends for their help, which
enabled them to make so many happy
at this Christmas time.

bars of the arena and at the feet of
Mrs. Jeffries.
The bull had seen the act and had a
few things to say about himself. He
had heard of Jeffries many times. and
galloping over to the same spot he bel
lowed and paved the earth, while the
crowd yelled and Jeff grinned.
Wheeling, the bull dashed straight
to the opposite guard, and leaping
into the air attempted to escape over
the grandstand, while the spectators
screamed and ran in panic. Quiet was
quickly restored and Robert advancing,
sent in a perfect stroke, straight
through the left shoulder. Then while
the fighters dashed in to lend assistance
the matador leaned forward and smiled
grimly at his enemy. The bull lowered
his head and the crowd gasped.
Thrilling Moments
But there the -plucky little French
man stood, the same grim smile play
ing over his features, and slowly ne
dropped to one knee and laughed. The
never moved. Slowly Robert arose and
advanced until he could almost sit on
the bulls horns, but still Ell Toro failed
to charge
And then the great head of the ami
NAL rolled from side to side and as
Robert leaned over him with his shout
of triumph, the second bull rolled over
in death.
The blow had been a perfect one and
the hats showered into the arena.
Robert then turned the performance
over to Barrar, the young Spanish
matador. The younger man met with
great applause in his tantallzing of
the bull, but he failed to strike true
when 1t came to the killing and the
third bull was stabbed in several places
before he made his last charge and
sent his slayer back from the death
stroke with a bruised side.
The killing of the third bull seemed
SO inhuman to many of the crowd that
they left and only a few spectators re-
mained to see the last bull put 10
death.
Following the bull fight one OF the
special rurales. known as angelo" on
duty at the arena, turned over his re-
