A week ago to day, at seven o'clock in the
morning, Mrs Lowell Smith " passed through
Glory' gale."
Abigail Willis Tenney was lwrn In the
village of Ikifre, Worcester County,ln the state
of Massachusetts, December 4,1809 .Her
father was a successful school teacher, and
Abigail was the 9th cf 11 children, six of
whom were boys.
When she was still a little girl, the family,
owing lo business reverses, rcmrtd to llran
don, Rutland County, Vernont, where the
childhood, girlhood nnd )oung-lad)bood of
the future missionary was for Ihe most patt
passed.
To the personal training of her father Miss
Tenny doubtless owed a large share of her
proficiency as n teacher. ,
At about eighteen, while teaching Ihe vill
age school In Heath, Massachusetts, she met
youn; Lowell Smith, then an undergraduate
In William's College, lie was even then fil
ling himself for his future missionary work,
having tell the plow for the college 011 his
conversion, when about twenty-one. They
became engaged soon after, and, better to fit
herself to second the future labors of her hus
bind, Mis Tcnny entcted Ihe newly organ
lird young ladles seminary at Ipswich, Kssea
County, Massachussets. This Institution was
founded In 1S1S by Miss Lyon nnd Miss Grant,
who afterwards founded Ml. Hot) ok.- Scmin
ary. Under these ladies Ipswich Seminary-
soon became justly celebrated for its successful
schooling of teachers, and the future educator
of so many Haw iians of such varied parent
ace was a pupil ol Ipswich in the heyday of
its usefulness. How well she Improved her
opportunities was shown by her rapid promo
tion to ihe important trust of pupil-teacher.
The aflcr-frult of those studious hours is part
of the educational history of Honolulu of
the Hawaiian nation.
Miss Tenney b:came the wife of R. cv
Lowell Smith, October 2, iSj:.
On the 23rd of Novtmber following they
sailed from New London, Connecticut, on
board the old nhaling bark Mentor, Captain
John Klcc, in company with Kev. John IJelll,
first seaman' chapliin and first pastor of the
llcthcl, and Mrs. Drill, Her. and Mrs. II. W.
Parker, parents of Rev. Henry II. Parker,
and Mr. Charles llurnham, a carpenter and
builder, who came to erect the llethel Church,
the ftame work of which was on board the
vessel.
The voyage was a memorable one, occupy
ing 159 days, during which they saw- no land ;
though, being driven by stress of weather far
south of Cape Horn, they passed alarmingly
near many icebergs.
They landed May 1, iSrj. The ladiea of
the party were met t the shore by the queenV
carriage a hand cart, drawn by two natives,
clad in dignity and malos.
The first station of Mr. and Mrs. Smith was
it Molokai, then well populated. Their only
white colleagues on the island were Rev. and
Mrs. K. H. Hitchcock. Their first house
was a (mall native hut. But after endur
ing its discomfort a few months Mr. Smith,
assisted by his parishioners all natives,
built a comfortable cottage of stone collected
from an abandoned heiau, the natitcs furnish
ing a thatched roof.
A biography of the devoted Christian
woman whose life has been thus far outlined
cannot be separated from the life of her equally
devoted husband. It is not often given to
man anil wife no matter how congenial and
mutually helpful so effectually to supplement
each other in a noble life wotk. And though
in the first years of their island life the hus
band's energy was conspicuous and the wife's
ill-health confined her influence to silent and
often unnoticed channels, yet it is self-eviJrnt
to those who have known them Ixrvt that
neither could have led lives of such blessed
usefulness during the changes and vicissitudes
of half a century, If each life had not gisen
strength and purpose to the other.
On Molokai Mrs. Smith's health broke
down, and it was many years before she was
restored to the good, and comptratively
vigorous health she has enjoyed for the past
thirty years. Her condition while on Molo
kai became so alarming, when they had lived
there alwut a year, that she was brought In
Honolulu, her husband's station being
changed to Ewa shortly after, where they re
mained about two years. At Ka, Mr. Sm'tih
began thc-ftion of the Ewa church, com
pleted during the pastorate of Hcv. Artcmus
Bishop. Hut the Lwa climate proved In
sufficient to restore Mrs. Smith lo health and
they icturned again to Honolulu in order that
she might have continuous medical treatment,
and that Mr. Smith might engage in teaching
Ihe hundreds of children and )oulh who had
no school.
After leaching there alwut a year, Mr, Smith

said to his flock 1 " If you want inc to preach,

towards their families. Hut when the project
of the church wrat mooted, and It became
necessary lo provide wars and meant for the
purchase of flooring, doors, windowi, lime for
plastering and a few other essentlt's, Mrs.
Smith lieRin to teach the native! to weave
mat, hat, and bags. The man and halt were
told to wealthier natives and to whalers, the
bags were purchased by the two or three sugir
cultivators then at work on the islands.
The chntch was built rf adobe. Mr. Smith
made molds for the adobe bricks which were
1 feet long, t foot wide and 6 Inches thick.
Lach abl: bodied adult mile psrislnonier was
espected to provide 40 bricks. So soon as
one finished his tale, he passed on Ihe moulds
to another. During 1SJ7-S the structure went
up. and when finished In tSj3 was 125 feet
long, Co feet wide, with walls 12 feet high. It
was one-story, with a very high roof. Its
acoustic propsrtics were admirable. Its "seat
ing" capicily was nearly 2,503, though the
" seating" was done on the floor. Sometimes
the congregation numlieied fully 3,ox.
About iSp, Mr. Smith built a little home
of two rooms on the site of his ptescnt home
in Nuumu Valley. He built it merely as a
retreat from the summer heat of town, but soon
made It a permanent home. There, in Novcm
b:r 1S52, Ajittut L., their yoangsst sun, was
born. Of the seven children born to them
after their arrival in the islands only two sur
vived, l'totn that year, Mrs. Smith's health
improved steadily.
In tSjj two Hawaiian )oung men, em
ployed as cooks In town, came to the house
and asked if Mrs. Smith's little daughter
Hnina (now- Mrs, II, I. Dillingham,) would
leach them to rend, write and speak
English. Mrs. Smith replied that her
daughter was loo young for the position
of teacher, but that she would uladlv
teach them herself. At that time there was
no school In Honolulu at which the common
people could learn I'.nglish. The old Royal
School had been established for chiefs only.
On the premises now occupied by the present
Royal School there was an Lngtish school for
white children, Mrs, Smith's two pupils told
uthers and her little class grew in few sinnlhs
until it became a well-established and well
known evening school for Hawaiian young
men. To limit and define the membership
Mrs. Smith Used tuition rates 25 cents per
week anil 30 pupils testified th: genuineness
of their desire lo learn L'nglish by keeping up
their studies with her for fully a year.
Among her pupils at that time were many
young men who afterwards filled useful
positions creditably and faithfully. Hut the
tfloil ol leaching five nights a week almost
continuously was too severe for Mrs. Smith's
delicate constitution, and she reluctantly aban
doncu her evening school, immediately to
begin a day school for Hawaiian children to
which, ftom time to time, there came also
English, Chinese, Negroes and South-Sea
Islanders, fn 1S5G this school was made a
government school Ihe first English-teaching
common school on the islands. During the
years 1854-60 many of the most promising
native boys on tin: islands attended Mrs,
Smith's school its membership at one time
numbering So pupils. Minister Kapcna,
Captain William Tell, W. A. Klha, Enoch
Kalawao, David Naone were a few of those
prominent Hawaiians who are remembered as
being her pupils.
In 1S60, it w;s decided to open a govern
.dent school for Hawaiiar.s in the present
Royal School premises, and Mrs. Smith was
invited to become principal. She declined to
accept the position, and, the exigencies of the
situation seeming to demand it, the govern
ment,, school she. bad so successfully conducted
was transferred to the Koyal scftool.
Hut Mrs. Smith's educational work did not
cease there. She opened a school for white
children and taught it at home for three years,
coming down the valley in 1S03 to the cottage
now occupied by Mr. J. D. Strong, then
owned by a native. In that school (as occa
sionally during many years before) Mr:, Smith
was nss.stcd by her daughter.
In 1S65, Mr. and Mrs. Smith, paid their
first visit home after an absence of nearly 32
years. They were accompanied by their son
and daughter and were absent from the islands
15 months.
On their return Mrs. Smith reopened their
school at her own home, continuing it until
the close of 1879.
In 1S36 or ,7 Alexander Liloliho was for a
while a pupil, and Regent Kinau wanted Mr.
and Mrs Smith to adopt the little luir. Dut
reasons of state counselled otherwise and the
future Kamchameea IV was educated in the
old Royal School by Mr. and Mrs. A.S.Cooke.
Mrs, Smith's powers as a teacher were in
part o " gift." Uyinheritance and by training
she was fitted as only a chosen few have been
for the particular environment of her teacher's
life. The following autobiographical para
graph, written with rare felicity and admirable
good taste for a memorial prepared on the
occasion of their golden wedding, two years
ago last October, indicate better than can any
words of the writer the zeal, the faith, the
Isvi she put into her life work :
"Lose of children is the strongest passion of
my nature ; and teaching is my normal con
dition. We were not pioneers in the mission
ary work at these islands ; but we entered into
Ihe labors ol" the good men and women who
had preceded us, and who had already made a
successful commencement, and good progress
in the work. There was a dearth of teachers
for the children, and it was a glad day to me,
when I gathered my first group of Hawaiian)
boys and girls about me, and met the little
dusky faces raised to mine, as wide awake and
eager as were the children in Ihe far away
home land. Here was promise, and faith and
hope seemed triumphant."
Mrs. Lowell Smith's influence as a teacher
was not more noteworthy than her Influence
as a Christian worker. She was qctlvc in
many directions, helpful whenever and
wherever her strength permitted her to act.
Her religious fellowship was with Kaumaka
pili Church, of which she became a member in
IS38 and in which she ictained her member-
s'lip ever after. Kor many ) ears she worked
in its Sunday-school, together with her two

For three months the fire did nut go out in
Mrs. Smith's kitchen. Soup, lice, nnd tea

abatement of the scourge, five hundred mem

In 187s, Mrs. Smith spent three months on
the Pacific Coast, her second and last return
visit lo the United Stales. For the past four
years her life has been one of enmparatise

Then came Mrs. Hampsoi, and into the workj
led by that gifted evange'ist she entered Willi
real far beyond her strength.
Three weeks ago last Tuesday Mrs. Smith
attended a meeting of the Hawaiian Woman's
Hoard of Missions. Her friends noted with
ansiety her failing strength. Two da) 's later
she attended the organizing meeting of the
Woman's Temperance Union. It was her last
outing save one. On the following Sunday,
she was driven around the grounds of Luna
lilo Home. A gospel meeting was in progress
at the time. Mrs. Smith heard the sound of
a hymn, and slid i "I shall be glad when I
am strong again. I must come here nnd talk
with these old people." It was almost her
last expression of a wish or, a resolve. Her
words were the words of one faithful unto
death lo the duty she had made her life work
her duty to the poor of the Hawaiian race.
The last fortnight of her life was a gradual
slipping away. The lust week was a pro
prolonged sleep. Her final days were abso
lutely painless. She was not delirious and not
unconscious. Her condition, was natural,
painless sleep. She awoke several times,
spoke occasionally, made slight motions with
her hands, followed ivith her earnest eyes the
movements of the dear ones around her. She
did not want to die. She clung to life for the
good there she still might do. Dut there was
not an Instant's rebellion, not one visible pang,
as thj knowledge of the inevitable came lo her
by imperceptible gradations of consciousness,
till she closed her eyes at last to open them
in the land of her promise.
It was hard to give her up. Three genera
tions of a family that had been closely
united mourned more than a common
loss. And yet they knew God "had given
His beloved sleep" and Cod's beloved was
their beloved
It was a fitting ending the funeral from
Kaumakapili Church, the church of her long
allegiance. By hall-past three Sunday after
noon Ihe church was filled by those who had
known the dead missionary. The population
was about equally divided between whites and
natives. The choir of Kaumakapili Church
sat on the left, the Ewa side. oT the pulpit ;
several members of the choirs of the Ucthcland
Fort-street churches sat on the opposite side. In
the pulpit were Rev. Waiamau, pastor of Kau
makapili Church, and Revs. Hyde, Cruian,
Oggel and Forbes. A wealth of floral tributes
testified to the appreciation ol unnumbered
friends. White roses Mrs. Smith's lavoritc
flowers were profusely used, in crosses,
wreaths, an anchor, a harp, a floral pillow and
in looc masses. On the pulpit desk was a
tiny sheaf made from full ear of ripe wheat,
and in il was thrust a miniature sickle.
The choir from the English-speaking
churches sang two hymns, the native choir
sang one. Mr. Cruran offered a prayer in
English ; Mr. Waiamau, in Hawaiian. Mr.
Hyde read a port.on of scripture in both Eng
lish and Hawaiian. Mr.Forbcs prcaclicd in Ha
waiian, and Mr. Oggrl delivered the sermon in
English.
Many went to the cemetery, though only a
very few in comparison with those who were at
the church. A beautiful feature of the last sad
rite was the lavish use of flowers at the grate.
The five graves of Mrs. Smith's children, aand
those of her grandchildren weie decked with
flowers. A little pile of rocks, taken
(rom the newly-opened grave, was complete y
covered by flowers. And the freshly removed
earth was thickly studded with roses and Icrns.
It was a fitting close cf a beautifully rounded
life the beginning of well-earned "Rest."

life was so much a part of this community, that
it would be superfluous for me lo-dwtll tcitlio
ularlyoTsIl Its labors for the good of lhi wllh
whom she came In coniact. It was a life con-
Uedeemer'j Kingdom in these Islands. A
whole generation has pissed away and nearly
another, and she had been permitted the joy of
seeing this nation coming out of the darkness
and degiadation of heathenism, and rising
steadily Into the light and the privileges of
Christian civilization. Hut today I look
around upon this great audience and ask where
are those who were among the early fruits of
her labors? Where are Ihe old chiefs, where
the good old women, where the good old men
who informer years received instruction and
Christian light and help under her teachings,
and were co-workers with her in all thil was
good ? Alat, how few remain I Gone all
gone, except here and there a solitary one I
Gone before I And now she has gone to meet
them once more and rejoice with them in the
light and the glory of th it heavenly home of
which she so often told them here below, and
concerning wlucli she so oltcn nclU swert
counsel with them.
Hut two short years ago, she was permitted
the rare privilege Of celebrating her golden
wedding, amid the congratulation of children
and grandchildren, nnd many friends. Today
e trrids the streets of the "great city, the
noly Jerusalem," that city of "pure gold, like
unto clear glass," when earth's dross and rub
bish nnd alloy have all been cleansed away,
and only the pure gold of the redeemed and
smclilicd nature can be permitted to enter.
Her life work was well finished. She
dropped In the harness. Hut two shr"t weeks
ago, she visited the Lunalilo Home, and her
life-long love for the Hawaiian people, and in
terest in their welfare was greatly roused, as
she said, "Ah here is my remaining work, to
lo good to these aged and feeble ones" i and
her soul rejoiced In prospect of that work. A
lay or two after, she attended a meeting of
the "Women' Boird of Missions for the Pa
cific," of which she was president. Then it
was that for the first time her physical powers
failed her, nnd that was her last official ser
vice Two days later, she attended a meet
ing of the newly orginlred Women's Christian
Temperance Union, but was obliged to leave
before the close. This was her last public ap
pearance. A few days more of quiet, appar
ently painless, gentle slumbering away of life,
and she slept sweetly in Jesus. She was not,
for the Lord came and took her 10 hlrr.self.
And today wc look on her face and say fare
well dear mother. As one after another ol
ihe aged fathers and mothers who have led
this Hawaiian nation through the tottering
steps of its infancy up to its present position
pass nway, we cannot resist the feeling of
national bereavement in their departure. An
orphaned people may well mourn the loss as
they itep through the open door in answer to
the Master's call, and enter the mansions
waiting for them, leaving to us the priceless
legacy of their example, and the testimony of
their lives to the power of the Gospel of Jesus
Christ for the regeneration of our humanity.

My friends: The words of Scripture which
the minister of God has read in our hearing
and the hymn to which we have listened direct
us lo look upward and onward to the Heavenly
Home. The Bible calls it our Father's house.
The door of it was opened and the voice ol
God said, "Conies" and yesterday morning
the spirit or the beloved wife and mother
passed from these earthly surroundings to the
home above. Through the open door she
went in to behold the Father's House and to
rejoice forever in its beauty.
The apostle John, when an exile on Patmos,
in the revelation that he had of the blessed
hereafter, beheld the number of the inhabi
tants! ten thousand limes ten thousand ; an in
numerable company of the redeemed, of
whom the poet sa)s:
' Ten thousand times ten thousand.

oureiicf. We believe in heaven; a state ol
endless felicity, Jesus said to his followers,
"Ipo my way to Him that sent met" and,
"I will receive you unto myself, that where I
am there )e may be also." Our faith accepts
as true these words of our Redeemer. And
no man shall move us from our faith in him
and in his promise, that thiough the gale of
death He will conduct our siuls to lilt
eternal,
The d)ing Rabelais exclaimed, "I goto

our
We
1 souls cry out' Then what have we?
have the assurance of Immortality j the promise
of (Jod of a tearless, sinless, deathless home in
Heaven. I do no! know what heaven Is.
lVe know not )et whit weshill be. Hut we
know that the Hible presents the future life in
direct nnd favorable contrast with this life.
1 hus it inspires us with the hope "to be de
livered from the bondage of corruption into
Ihe gloiiout liberty of the children of God,"
It teaches, that when Ihe spirit leases this
mortal tenement, it receives "a houe ssith
God, eternal in the heavens," Il announces,
that "they who are troubled here shall have
rest forever when the Lord Jesus shall be re
seated from heaven with h t mighty angels (".Ullons between th
and " that the Lord will deliver us from every
evil work and will preserve us unto H.s
heavenly kingdom."
Trom these statements, thus placed In antith
esis, we conclude, that we are and must ever
Iw stranpers in this world. There can be no
(unbroken home-lile beneath the stars. No,
' the continuing city, the lest and the heart's
full, deep satisfaction" ate yonder I For our
conversation, that is, our citizenship Is in
heaven. I due not try to remove the veil
that hangs before the habitation of God's glory,
IlutTheB-xik teaches, that "Over There"
there Is no sickness, no night, no partings, no
pain. There Is the land where God lives and
Jesus, where our fathers and motheis and
brothers and sisters are. 0 what mut It be
to be there 1
Tfiat I may not lie misunderstood In speak
ing thus of Heaven, let me say, that In so do
ing I do not speak disparagingly of earth or
of this life, For this world is God's creation,
as much as heaven is his workmanship. It Is
the sphere of our work nnd of nur noblest
efforts for God and humanity. The eye and
heart nnd lore of God are over this world too
With such a Father and helper we are not
orphans. And I would say to the weary nnd
heavy-laden, that no knee ever bowed to this
God, that was not strengthened that no
human heart ever opened Itself to this Ileing,
that was not filled nnd enlarged with the in
fluences of His love; that never did a stricken,
bleeding heart approach this Gat with its
wounds nnd sorrows, that He did not meet it
on lis way with healing arid comfort. I only
argue for a better, brighter, more enduring ex
istence. There must be a nobler, higher state
than this material life. True, some, forgetful
of their heaven-born origin and destiny, are
satisfied with these material surroundings and
grow accustomed to this world as docs the
prisoner to his cell. Hut a voice within us
asserts the fact of our dcathlcssness and on the
heart's nllar burns the inextinguishable flame
of immortality.
Here wc are exiles from Paradise. Wc
form purposes over which the angels of God
rejoice, but wc fail in the endeavor. Wc have
a spirit that is conscious of its immortalltt,
but is enchained in this prison-house of the
body until it breaks these bonds asunder lo be
forever free. Wc hate a thirst for knowledge,
that is not limited by the stars and yet remains
unsatisfied when we try to penetrate the
secrets of but a single blade of grass. This
world is the scene of effort and of failure; and
if Ill's be "Home," this lind of disappoint
ments and losses, of death and tears; and il
there be nothing beyond ; if the tomb buries
forever the dear deail ; nnd b.vc, hope, joy and
the struggles of life all terminate in the gloom
of the grave, then, almighty God, destroy in
these hearts of ours the consciousness of im
mortality and the longings in this world for a
land and a summer that have no existence!
But not thus do we part with the hopes
within us. There is a dissolution Df the dust
lrol a soft pillow" for the weary head"sii rest on
In the bosom of the crave; but under the
glmluus shining light of Christianity there is
no death. There is no death here to-day.
This frame gave way, but only thus could
there Jae the commencement of a more lasting
structure whose builder and maker is God.
Then say not to the dust: wife, mother.
The form over which your teardrops fall is
but Ihe garment that has been laid aside and
the spirit is forever free. That spirit may not
be far away. St. 1'aul urges us to run the
race of life and to strive for success and the
crown from the fact that we arc surrounded
by a great cloud of witnesses, that watch with
intenscst interest our hopes, our footsteps and
struggles.
Therefore, sorrowing friends, be ye com
forted to-day. She, whom you loved, and
who was loved and respected by all that knew
her, has changed her sphere and relations.
She was complete in education and character
for the inheritance of the saints in lichr.
From her relations here she has gone to be
forever with the Lord. She served God with
a whole heart and was faithful unto death.
She freely jave her wealth of love, friendship
anil christian work as God git es us Ills sun
shine. Ami in her is exemplified, "Thou
s'lalt come to thy grave in a full age, like as a
shock of wheat cometh In in his season."
May God help and strengthen you, her aged
companion, and may His tenderness and lose
now and ever be over you all,
And to you, my friends, who are here to
s)mpalhize with these bcieavcd ones, let me
say: By faith in God, in Christ, and in Im
mortality act well your part in life. Obey
God and hold before you the life and example
of Christ, and remember that "in every nation
he thai fcarcth God and workcth righteous
ncss is accepted with Him."
In the cultivated circles of Greek and Roman
t icicty it was customary to express ideas, that
might possibly pain the feelings in soft and
flowery language.
The propriety of this is rccocnized atnonc
all educated classes. And the Bible, appre
ciating this fact, addresses the heart gently
and couches what we call death in words of
tenderness. It brings it to our view in pleat,
ing images. Thus it is termed a rest ; pictured
as an exchange of the earthly encampment for
the heavenly home; it is a departure and per.
haps as beautiful a leprescntalion of il as any
is that of a steep.
Yes, dcpaitcd friend, thou art not dead, but
steepest; and we will lay thy form away in its
last resting place in Ihe tomb. Often have
we spoken id thee ; once more would we speak
to thee, whom our hearts will never forget.
When thy precious remains shall have been
Interred, may God sacredly guard thy dust, ai
He guards the apple of 111! eye. Thou wilt
not return lo us, but we will go unto thee.
And front our resting places in the grave, we
shall tise unto glory and Immortality, when
the trumpet thai! sound and the Savior shall
appear.
Till then, departed mother, fare thee well I

On the evening of Friday the 30th ultimo,
Ihe parlor of the Hawaiian Hotel was bril
liantly lighted for the display of two pictures
--The Crater of Kllattea, by Jules Tavernier 1
and a. view of Mauna Loa, by J, D, Strong.
Of Mr. Strong's picture it is sufficient to
say that It was a pleasing composition
conventionally treated - and not quite finished.
Two obtrusive figures In the foreground may
be removed with advantage. If finished care
fully, the picture will be worth having.
At an early hour the room was well filled.
Mr. Tavernier's picture hung on the mauka
wall lietwecn the doors. Its graphic realism
won Instant recognition. The few lilictlles
that had been taken with the proportional re-
width of the crater's
of the crater's walls
door and Ihe high!
heightened the picture's effectiveness without
materially detracting frcrn Its truth, A similar
criticism applies with equal force to the posi
tion of the little crater. Those In the audience
whose art appreciation hail been perfected by
too rigid Inslstance upon absolute fidelity to the
truths of naturt, may htve found fault with
those merely mathematical inaccuracies. Hut
eicry genuine admlter of true art read that
picture as every true lover of poetry reads a
poem on amott.
The daring of Tavernier's coloring might
have made those present who had neser been
lo the volcano doubt its truthfulness. Hut
those who had been there were unanimous
in I enthusiastic In their praise. "It is uinly
jver-colorcd," said a ctitical miss. "Have
)ou seen the originil ?" atked her companion.
"Not yet." "Then, begging your pardon,
you arc scarcely qualified to judge.
I have seen it twice. The first time
the color edicts could not be more faithfully
reproduced than they are in that canvass. The
second time there was a riot of livid hues that
the mbJui J coloring of that picture vivid,
startling though it is does not etcn, faintly
indicate. The floor of the great crater was a
molten tea, that broke in billows of fire against
those craggy barriers. 'Over coloring?' It
is absolute fidelity to one of that marvelous
crater s innumerable phases,"
The critical miss said " Oh'!"
The picture has gone to San Francisco and
will probably go on to New York for exhibi
tion In both cities. It is the work of a genius
ind it is to be hoped will find its permanent
iimiic in Honolulu.
Did it ever occur to houskeepcrs how
much cleaner and nicer it is to wash the nap
(ins, towels, handkerchiefs, table linen, etc.,
by themselves, with soap not made of putrid
fats or questionable grease ? I)j it with
"Ivory Soap" (99.4$ p. c. pure), made of
vegetable oil, nnd use them confident that they
ue clean and not tainted, llcnson, Smith .t Co,
have this soap for sale.
COMMERCIAL.
Honolulu, February 7, 1885.
There has been little business activity this
week be) ond Ihe supplying of pressing local
wants, the movements of foreign shipping
being so light as to barely come within
record, the arrivals being the French gunboat
Kerguclen from Callao on the 3rd and the
schooner Norway from San Francisco yester
day, the latter reporting a tedious passage
of twenty-eight days. The departures since
last issue have been the Alameda and Con
suelo for San Francisco, and Hanca for Port
land, The first two vessels look cargoes of
domestic produce valued, respectively, at
$196,401.45 and $41,223.91. The latter
sailed with part of her original cargo of coal
and salt.
The J. D. Spreckcls sailed from Kahului
nn the 20th ultimo for San Francisco, with
0,673 pkgs sugar and 70 boxes preserved
bananas, and on the first instant the Rosario

4,150 pkgs sugar. The Courtney Ford, from
San Francisco, reported herself off Kahului on
the 30th ultimo.
On Monday next the Mariposa will be due

household furniture al the residence of the late
Henry May, which was well attended and
realized over $2,300. The room sales of Ihe
respective "knights of the hammer" this

Marion, as she lies at Punaluu, Oahu, realized
$50. Mr. John Ena was the purchaser.

" When a man starts out lo paint the town

Joes good work al fair prices, and takes the
horses of customers to and from their stable
without extia charge.
" Large cart are said la denote generosity.
We have noticed that mutes give away their
hind legs." That is very different from the
policy of Mr. W. II. Page. Ue believes in

it why he gives first value for everything he
supplies) and, consequently, has the satisfaction
of a constantly increasing patronage.

The chancellor's head used to be extremely

and he will never be any better until he gives
up using that vile acidulated stuff he drinks,

Cigar Factory, has now resumed business at
No. 84 King street, where you can find genu

The severe test to which Ihe Mac Neale &
Urban safe was recently subjected, in the late
fire, in the building occupied by Mr, George
M. Raupp, is conclusive evidence that this
make of safe can be ally relied upon. On
being extricated from the ruins, this safe
showed the intense heat to which it had been
exposed, the outer sheathing of the door being
warped and Ihe handles melted off. On being
opened, at Messrs. R. More & Co's,, the lock
and combination were found to be in perfect
order and Its contents consisting of $1,0(0 in
cash, books, papers, etc, were in a perfect
state of preservation. Mr. Raupp has since
ordered another one of same size make. Mr.
C. O. Berger is the Honolulu agent for these
celebrated safes,
Mrs. Ulysses S. Grant showed an admirable

offer of Mr. Wm. II. Vamlcrbilt, to transfer
to her the mortgage given lo him by the Gene
ral to secure Ihe debt of $150,000 he owed
Mr. Vandcrbitl. But we doubt, if there had
been one uf Ihe "Light-tunning Domestic Sew
ing Machines " among the articles thus trans
ferred, that Mrs, Grant would base refuted its
acceptance, as it is difficult for any lady lo pan
with one after having once tested its merits.
Mr. Augustus L. Smith, No. 8j Fort street, is
agent for this world-renowned machine and
keeps in stock, a full supply of all kinds of
machine needles, machine oil and domestic
paper fashions, as well as an clegtnt assort

Many of our residents here, are doubtless,
familiar with the patent adjustable swing which
is In such general use in the parks and other
public places, schools, residences, etc, through,
out the United States. Thit swing Is arranged
to securely seal four persons, In a carriage box,
facing each other, and is propelled by the
weight and position of the occupants, who can
easily regulate the movcmenl uf the swing to
any degree of momentum desired so as to
almost approximate perpetual motion. Mr,
E. E. Mayhew, carpenter, al No. 15, Hotel
Street, has recently introduced this swing lo
the residents of these Islands and is now pre
pared to promptly fill all orders for tame. A
model of this swing can be seen at his shop,
and il, also, can be personally le.led al the
icsidctvcctTof Messrs. J. 11, Paly, li. F. Dil
