A Liberal Contract,

Attention is called to the ad in this issue of the Kaliski Music Company in which they offer free insurance against loss by fire, lightning, torna
 do, breakage or any cause whatever and agree to replace the instrument with a new one should it be totally destroyed, this to cover on any piano or piano player purchased of them and to continue during the life of the contract with the purchaser. This company further agrees to give it's customers clear title to their in struments if they should die before the expiration of the contract, pro- vided all payments are made promptly during their coatract This is very liberal contract and will doubtless re- suit in the sale of many instruments

NAME FOR FORT

The seacoast battery to be erected
on Kaakaukukui reef at the entrance
of Honolulu harbor will be named
Fort Armstrong i'm honor Of General
Is. c. Armstrong. This is by direc-
ton of Secretary Dickinson on the
request of Geo w. De Long Post,
G. A. r., Honolulu that one of the
local batteries or posts be given the
Hawaiian born generals name.
Samuel Chapman Armstrong was
born in Waikiki, Maui, in 1899, while
his father was a missionary on the
Island of Maui, and moved with the
family from there to their cid home
stead on Beretania avenue. The old
coral house still stands, being part
of the group of Iolani College CON
nected with the Episcopal church.
Armstrong took the high school course
at Punahou and went to Williams Col
lege about 1858.
At the outbreak OF the war he wrote
his valedictory address and eft it for
another to read, while he nastened to
Troy and organized a volunteer COM
| pany of which he became captain His
company was among the volunteers
from New York and it's campaigning
was done with the army OF the Po-
tomac. He was in most OF the big
battles in which that army was en-
gagged and at the battle Of Gettysburg
won promotion for bravery. He had
been promoted to the rank of colonel
and was mustered out at the end of
the war with the rank of brigadier-
general After Lincoln's Emancipation
Proclamation, he was appointed to the
command of negro troops made up
from emanicipated slaves and this ac-
cident shaped his career thereafter
After the surrender of Lee, he was
the first to enter Richmond, because
it was feared that the surrender would
result in an ambush, and they sent
the negro troops in first to stand the
brunt of any street attacks. While
taking these troops on transports to
Fortress Monroe at Hampton Roads
there to be mustered out, the question
came into his head of what these
negroes were to do after they ceased
= to be soldiers. While camping a

this question was fermenting in hi:
mind and the result was an applica

to organize a school and assignment

troops to be useful citizens. Tit

MISSES
SELLING
STAMPS
Red Cross Pastors Placed
on Sale at Post Office
and Two Stores.
YOUNG LADIES HAVE
EMBLEMS ON SLEEVE
Some Factories Renew Their
Orders and the $4,000
Mark Is Easy Prospect.

The campaign for the sale of red
cross stamps in this city was given
further impetus this morning by the
establishing of three stations by
Rev. James l.. Lancaster and Dr.
William e. Ramsay, the committee
in charge of the work in this city
The stations are in the post office,
Reynolds Brothers dry goods store
and William Murdoch's dry goods
store, and are In charge Of Mrs. c..
@. Baldwin. The stations consist Of
tables on which red cross stamps are
displayed for sale and are presided
over by pretty young ladies', who
wear the red cross emblem on the
left arm. Miss Louis Dover is in
charge Of the table at the post
office; Miss Kathryn Nelson at Rey-
nolds' store and Miss Cornelia
Boggs in Murdoch's. Miss Margaret
Wight will relieve Miss Boggs this
afternoon and until the Monday fol-
lowing New Years day other young
ladies will assist in the work.
The tables at both of the stores
are placed near the front entrance
and the one in the post office has a
conspicuous place. That the booth
will be a success is certain, as the
stamps began to sell as soon as the
branches were opened. The young
ladies make a very attractive APP
pearance with the red cross emblems
on their sleeves. The little stamps
cost only one penny each and the
proceeds of the sale win be used for
tuberculosis work in this state.
About $4,000 red cross stamps
have been sold in this city since the
campaign was started and the COM
mittee believes that more than 50,-
600 will be disposed of before the
sale closes The large manufacture
ing concerns and the merchants and
business men In general have taken
an interest in the campaign and
have responded literally to the ap-
peal of the committee to take the
stamps The Barbar Asphalt Works
and the American Smelling & Re
hniifg Works, both OF whom took q
hs gsswrn 1xhen tales
were frst plaeed On sails, have used
them on tAeir ray envelopes and
outgoing mail and have asked tfe
committee to renew their order. The
little clamps are very attractive and
add much TO the appearance OF q
holiday package or an envelope.
The cause Is one that Is deserving
of support and everyone should buy
a few OF the stamps.

Copenhagen, Dec. 22:-Denmark
is today divided into three camps re-
garding the turning down of DR..
Cooks polar record yesterday. The
majority OF the people believe DR..
Cook is deliberate and colossal
fakir. Many declare that DR.. Cook
is honest, but ignorant, and that he
probably believed that he had
reached the pole when he had made
the statement. Few still maintain
that DR.. Cook did reach the pole.
The university authorities here to-
day are unable to locate DR.. Cook to
notify him OF their decision The
committee thought 1T knew where Dr.
Cook was, but is now convinced that
his statement in regard to his where
abouts was false, and made solely to
convince the committee that he was
honest in his assertions. Even Mr..
Lonsdale, DIR. Cooks secretary, ad-
mits he does not know of DR.. Cooks
whereabouts.
