Ayer's Sarsaparilla
Mr. Charles Strphenson, a well-known
Hallway Employs at Kalnpol, Xcir
Zealand, write t
"About ten years ago, while en
gaged in shunting, my foot caught
totween the rails, and my leg was
fractured below the knee. It healed
in time, but I have been troubled
ever since with swollen veins, and
have been obliged, at times, to wear
a bandage. About a year ago it be
came much worse, and I feared I
should bo obliged to givo up my
work. A friend advised mo to try
Ayer's Sarsaparilla. I did so, and
nJCter taking four bottles the swell
ing disappeared, and I have not
been troubled with it since."

THE SENATE.
Souslors Homer nud Schmidt
woro tho only absentees at tho
opening of tho Souato this morn
ing. Tho Secrotary read n communi
cation from tho Minister of tho
Interior answering tho questions
propounded by Senator Holstcin,
tho substance of which is hero
given:
"With regard to the Ivobala
"Wnimen road tho Ministor sayB
tho appropriation of April 1st,
1892, was $1,022.29 which has nil
been expended. Of tho appropri
ation of August 20, 1895, amount
ing to $3000 nothing has bcon ex
pended. Tho government will
tin is h tho road as soon as funds
oro available. According to tho
estimates of tho chairman
of tho North Kohala Koad
Board $5000 is needed to
finish tho rond. Bond Engineer
Brunor's ostimntes call for $12,
000. Tho sum of $5000 has been
inserted in the Loan Appropria
tion Bill for this purpose
Honokaa lauding is n private
one. In 1882, $10,000 was appro
priated in aid of a landing at Ho
nokaa, which amount was expend
ed. This lauding was swept away
shortly afterwards, and since then
tho Honokaa Sugar Company
have built a lauding at Honokaa
and kept tho same in repair with
out any assistance from tho gov
ernment. Therefore this landing
dpes not coma under tho pro
visions of Section 4, Chapter
XLIV. of tho Session Laws of
1 1892, which regulates tho charges
at landings under certain condi
tions. Tho question as to whether tho
government intends opening up
the homestead lands back of tho
Awiui tracts in Kohala was sub
mitted to Land Agent Brown, who
Btntos that no applications or in
dications of a desiro for home
steads in that locality havo reach
ed his office but it is tho intention
of tho Land Commission to meet
as rapidly as possible any de
mands for homesteads wherever
existing. Thoro nro numerous
petitions on file for tho laying out
of homesteads in othor localities,
signed by numorous petitioners,
which would naturally have pre
ference, so ,tlmt it is not possiblo
to indicate when tho Kohala work
could bo undertaken.
Ilonoipu landing is a publia
lauding and is not owned
by the chairman of the
Kohala Road Board. Tho
amounts expended on tho two
roads sinco 1893 are: Honoipu
road S412.4G; Mahukona road
$5(57.44. Tho Ministor is not
awaio of any complaints about
oithor road.
In answer to tho quostion : "Is
it not possible that work could
now bo stopped on tho corrugated
iron building now boing erected
on Fort street, nbovo Hotel?" tho
Ministor says: "So long as tho
parties constructing the same shall
comply with tho requirements of
Section 2, Ohaptor 2, of tho Ses
sion Laws of 1880, relating to tho
erection and repairing of build
ings in tho city of Honolulu with
in certain firo limits) tho ministor
of Interior has no authority to
intorforo.
Senator Brown asked for fur
thor time on tho opium bill, stat
ing that tho Committee had boon
ocoupied with othor matters.
Senator Hocking gavo notice of
a bill relating to tho issuing of
patents.
Prosidsnt Wildor appointed tho

Sotition of Portuguese, as follows:

Candles'?, "Wright and Rice.
Sonnto Bill 22, relating to priv
ate ways and water rights, caino
up on tho order of tho day and
passed tho third reading.
Ministor Damon made tho fol
lowing statement on tho financial
affairs of tho Republic:
I think it is well sometimes that
tho Minister of Finnnco should
como before tho Senate, as tho
property authority to whom tho
Constitution especially committed
thepresontationof finnncial matters
nud state tho position that theGov
eminent is in financially. Especial
ly nt this session wliou there are
ho many mnttors beforo it coining
from tho Treasury, for instance,
tlio Act which has been passed
granting tho Minister of Finnnco
facilities for carrying on tho Cur
rent Account; also tho Tax Bill,
tho Loan Bill and the Liqenso
Act. Thoro is so much thnt per
tains to tho Treasury in consider
ation of these various matters I
thought it might bo woll to givo
you a Bhort statement of our pres
ent position and lot you know
how tho Treasury stood this
morning.
Tho quostion of whothor tho
Republic is snfo in its financial
standing, I think, is past. Tho
crisis, you might say, connected
! with our monetnry affairs, has
gono by. Tho Ropublio has
proved its ability to moot its re
quirements. Tho pooplo havo
signified their willingnoss to bear
additional taxation that- tho public
interests may bo fostered and tho
public works carried on. As far
, as tho public works aro concerned
, I think wo can look ahoad with
assurance that wo liavo passed
through the critical period and
aro now on abettor footing. I
placo this assuranco on tho fact
that tho people themselves, sinco
tho Republic was established.havo
subscribed for our bonds in an
amount of nearly six hundred
thousand dollars. In addition to
that, tho Postal. Savings Bank,
from n position in which it was
struggling to meet its liabilities,
has grown until now it has in ad
dition to tho sum Of$50,000required
by law, a largo sniplus of $21,000.
Tho Loan Fund also has a surplus
to its credit of $14,000.
Tho point to which I refer now
specially is our Current Account.
Tho Gun out Account bIiows this
morning, cash on hand $109,000.
On the last day of this mouth wo
will havo to moot tho bills for
salaries and pay-rolls, which un
der tho presout appropriation bill
amounts to about $80,000. Undor
tho now appropriation bill it will
amount to nbout $88,000. Thoro
will bo interest duo on tho 1st of
April amounting to $2J,000. This
is interest on tho loan of 1893, in
stituted by tho lato Government
and npj -ed by this Government.
In teres 3 is duo on this loan on tho
1st Srt of April and October.
The interest on tho diiToront loans
is scattered through tho rest of
tho year, tho principal payments
of interest boing duo on tho 1st
day of January, April, July and
October. As 1 Baid tho interest
on tho first of next month will
amount to $24,000, which will
mako a total of $101,000, whioh
will leavo us a small margin.
Thoro nro a few days loft in this
month to swell that amount, but
wo havo enough to moot this
month's liabilities.
Iu tho early part of April I
propose to moot our January bills,
aud if tho situation in tho Treas
ury should not warrant it I pro
pose to draw from Bishop & Co.
undor tho Act for that purpose
tho sum of $15,000. Tho January
bills should bo paid in tho early
part of April. "Whilo I am speak
ing on tho subject, of using tho
Act that has granted tho privilego
to tho Treasury of securing funds
from outside sources temporarily,
I waut to say, that I havo noticed
in tho newspapers that possibly
tho Minister of Finance may ubo
his position as bankor and his
position as Minister of Finance
to mako them harmonious and
havo thom work together. I can
state that last Bummer when our
firm waB changed and tho present
partnership took over tho busi-

of tho Circuit Court, sitting as a
substitute for tho lato Justico
Bickerton, has filed n concurring
opinion. 0.. L. Brito was adju
dicated bankrupt January 29,
1895. On February 8 A. J. Lopez
filed a claim in bankruptcy against
Brito for $0971.67, whioh was not
contested. Lopez on May 17 filed
a socond claim for $10,419.G0,
whioh . included tho items of tho
first claim. This was disputed by
tho assignee on May 27, but tho
Circuit Court on Juno 19 allowed
$7083 of tho claim, including all
tho itoms of th6 first claim and
some othors.Moanwhilo onAprill5
the assignee brought an action at
law against Lopez for $3805.29
and obtained a verdict on Juno G
for $1900, upon which judgment
was entered Juno 12. Lopez
brought a bill in oquity to obtain
a set-off of tho judgment at law
against tho judgmont in bank
ruptcy, on tho ground that tho as
signee declined to allow tho sot off
und was about to tako out execu
tion on his judgment. Judgo

tho assignee appealed. Tho deci
sions of tho Supromo Court nllirm

In tho Magoon-Afong caso to
day, Mary Afougby h6rattornoys,
Hartwoll, Thurston & Stanloy,
mnko a motion to striko her namo
from tho complaint on tho ground
that bIio is not a weak-minded
person and that tho complaint was
filed without hor knowledge or
consent. The motion was sup
ported by tho affidavits of Doctors
Coopor, Herbert, "Wood and Day,
who certify that "Miss Afong is
fully capable of acting for horsolf
in tho more important affairs of
lifo." Tho court sustained tho
motion and struck Miss Afong'a
name from tho complaint. The
hoaring of tho main caso was con
tinued till Tuesday.
M. Pauahi has by his attorney,
S. K. Kano, brought an action for

It is tho praotico to fly tho

Snpromo Court is not recoiving
this distinction, for tho reason that
the halliards aro broken.

Sermon on Conscience.
Mr. Romig preached an excel

last night at tho Christian Church.
Ho brought out tho necessity of
educating tho consciouco by con
trasting tho zealous persecution
of tho early Christians by thoApos
tlo Paul with his equally zealous
proaching of tho gospol nud faith
ful ondoavors to undo his forra
or work of conscientious ignorance.
"If you aro trying to satisfy your
conscience with anything buV'a
full and complete compliance with
tho Biblo you will fail. It is the
only thing that can sustain you in.
tho dying hour, and woo bptido
you if you como to that awful
timo without tho comfort and con
solation of au approving con
science, without tho knowledge
that you havo oboyod implicitly
ovory command of tho Lord Jesus
that has been mado known unto
you. Do not try to satisfy your
couscionco with tho creeds and
doctriuod of mon, but build on tho
Bolid rock of God's eternal truth."
