WOLSELEY TO FltONT.
Ills Journey to South Africa Snld to
ho l'rlvntc, Hut Significant.
Iondoti, March 14. Field Mar
shal Lord Wolselcy, former Commander-in-Chief
of the British army,
is to go again to Africa, the scene
of the greatest military triumphs.
He says his trip is to be entirely
private, and the war Office denies
any connection with it, but the
average Briton is talking of coming
important changes in South Africa
and connecting them with thejour
ney of Lord Wolselcy, which will
begin tomorrow.
The capture of Lord Metbticn
tunilr. nun nf tlm lirtrlnef ttlntt'C
' Britain has had to bear for years,
and when this was immediately
followed by news that Kitchener's
blockhouse system had been found
weak again in spots, anger was suc
ceeded by disgust. That the War
Office has determined to practically
begin again at the bottom and
make n clean sweep, mapping out
an entirely new plan of campaign,
is the belief.
In the City Lord Wolseley's trip
is believed to be the beginning of
new ideas. The War Office be
lieves Wolselcy will make a tho
rough investigation of the situation
in South Africa. Hence came a
rumor late tonight that as a matter
of fact he is to take actual charge
of future operations. He is not,
however, to go to the front, it is
believed, unless he deems it im
perative, hut is to remain in Cape
Town, keeping in communication
with Kitchener.
Kitchener is being most harshly
criticised for his course in the pre
sent plan of campaign. His reas
suring messages and his triumphant
reports of insignificant victories
have angered all Britain. Espe
cially was this case when he an
nounced the Majuba day anniver
sary victory a victory that was al
most immediately overshadowed by
three almost inexcusable routs.
Colonel Frank Rhodes and
Arthur Rhodes, brothers of Cecil
Rhodes, and Lady Methucu will be
passengers on the steamer which
will take Lord Wolselcy to Cape
Town.
HIVE OF IMIUSTKY.
Excellent Work Turned Out by
Extensive Local Manufactory.
Geo. S. McKenzie is making the
Volcano Stables and Transportation
Company, a concern which is to
Hilo what the Honolulu Iron
Works is to the Capitol City. The j
concern is one ot many branches
and departments. There are the
carriage shops wheie the best vehi
cles from a light road wagon to the
heaviest dray are turned out in
finer finish and more durable quali
ties than are possessed by the fac
tory made vehicles of the East. Mr.
McKcnzie's trade is that of car
riage maker. He knows the busi
ness and makes the best goods. He
rides in a buggy that was made by
himself in California, nineteen years
ago. He puts durability into every
vehicle turned out. The sixteen
hacks used by the Volcano Stables
were all made in Hilo at the River
side shops and orders are being
filled each week for heavy and
light wagons for all parts of this
Island.
The help employed in the various
branches of manufacturing under
the supervision of Mr. McKenzie,
number twenty men, leaving out
the large number of unskilled and
skilled hands kept busy about the
stables and on stage lines and a
the paddocks at the.race track. Ten
men work in the blacksmith shops.
The horseshoeing department keeps
three of these busy and their parti
cular work is supervised bv a
graduate horscshoer Mr. O'Rourke
from one of the best veterinary
colleges. The carriage department
of the blacksmith shop employs a
gang of expert workmen, who have
every facility for rapid and efficient
work. Take the matter of setting
tires. Mr. McKenzie has put in
11 little plant of his own devising
j which enables his men to put on a
set of four tires in 20 minutes. The
tires are heated uniformly their
entire circumfeieuco and are drop
ped into a tank which cools the
j tire instantly through its length.
This causes uniformity of contrac
tion and makes a stronger, more
durable job than the old fashioned
slow method. One day last week
his men put on sixteen tires 1 inch
by four inches in two hours. For
heavy work this is a record breaker.
The stock of carriage material
and fixtures carried runs up in
value to more than $10,000. The
dry room is filled with some two
thousand dollars worth of stuff
ready to go into fine carriages and
stout wagons.
The paint shop is supervised by II.
Hardin, late oi San Francisco, who
has done some of the best work in
carriage finishing that has been seen
in the city. Hacks trimmed and
painted and varnished and striped
under his direction discount the
finish on factory made vehicles as
may bee seen by a comparison at
the Carriage Emporium on Wai
anuenuc street, At this store house
of fancy and stylish vehicles can be
seen a large stock of both home
and foreign made goods.
Every vehicle used on the Island
of Hawaii should be from the Hilo
factory.
The harness department of Mc
Kcnzie's hive of industry is show
ing rapid growth. He carries an
immense stock of ready made har
ness bought on the Coast at figures
which make underselling an easy
matter to customers who get quota
tions on large lots. In this line the
Island buyer has also the advantage
of immediate delivery. In madc-to-order
goods, McKcnzie's men are
doing work which brings the de
partment to the front in point of
excellence of product.
The Volcano Stables proper is an
institution itself of many ramifica
tions. There are stage lines, mail
routes, freight contracts and the
multifarious items of livery and the
hack business which make the iu
stitutiou one of the most important
to the people of Hilo. To the peo
ple outside of Hilo, the product of
the manufacturing departments
should appeal most strongly.
HII.OVS FEDERAL I!UlLIIX(i.
Progress Already Made Lends P.
Peck to Mnfco Trip.
Philip Pock received a letter from
Captain Matsou by the last mail, j
enclosing a telegram sent from 1
Washington by Congressman Stark
of Nebraska, saying that the matter !
of the Federal building at Hilo was
being properly advanced. The data
and the arguments sent forward by
the committee of Hilo citizens had
been received and given immediate
attention.
Mr. Peck will go to the mainland
by the return of the steamer Enter
prise and has decided to go on East to
Washington and other cities on
business that will advance the in
terests of Hilo. He will do some
good work in Washington in behalf
of the Federal building and will
carry a portfolio of information re
garding conditions and needs in the
Hilo harbor.
In a conversation with Mr. Peck
the other day a Tkihunk reporter
asked him if he was not afraid the
President might consider him a
candidate for the Hawaiian gov
ernorship. "I shall soon prove to
officials at Washingtau," said Mr.
Peck, "that I am not there on any
political lobbying scheme. They
will soon know that I am there in
the interest of a deserviug commu
nity and I venture I will find will
ing ears for my story. As it will
be some time before I depart I
would like for anyone who cares to
make suggestions in the interest of
Hilo to call and see me before I
leave. Of course too many cooks
would spoil the broth, but two
heads or more are better than one."
New Deputy Sheriffs.
Some time ago High Sheriff
Drown sent to Sheriff Andrews of
Hawaii the application of Henry
K. Mattin for the position of de
puty uf the Kau district in place of
Mr. Katon, who it was understood,
contemplated resigning. Mr. Mar
tin was seen and was found to be
just the man for the place, so that
High Sheriff Drown gave out news
today that he had finally decided
on that young man for the place,
he began his duties 011 the 1st of
April.
L. Kahlbaum of Kauai has been
appointed deputy sheriff of Koloa
under Sheriff Coney and he also
began his duties on the first of
April. O. Crowell, a Kamehameba
graduate and a former clerk in the
deputy sheriff's office here, was the
last deputy sheriff of Koloa, but
upon the resignation of Walter
Wright, he was promoted to the
more important post at Waimea.
The many friends of Mr. Crowell
in this city will be pleased to know
that he is doing well and that he
has the absolute confidaucc of his
superiors.

METIIUEN FREED KY THE IIOEKS.
Wounded (IciicrnI Helng Atteudoil
by Ills On n Countrymen.
London, March 13. The follow
ing dispatch, dated Pretoria, March
13th, has been received from Lord
Kitchener: "General Mcthuen was
brought to Klerksdorp today. He
is doing well. Everything possible
is being done for him."
The War Secretary, Brodrick,
announced in the House of Com
mons today that he understood that
General Mcthuen, who was cap
tured, severely wounded, by General
Delarey, March 10th, had been re
leased. The General's condition
was favorable. Brodrick added that
the exchange of General Mcthuen
for Commandant Kritsinger had
not been contemplated. The trial
of the Commandant had been post
poned because consideration of the
evidence to be presented had not
been completed.
Timothy M. Hcaly, Irish Nation
alist, amid Nationalist cheers, in
vited the Government to show equal
magnanimity and release Com
mandant Kritsinger.
Sound Sense In Poetic Form.
George W. Hatch, who thinks
in numbers and who lisps in rhyme
after a fashion that is envied but
not to be attended by Miles Menan
der Dawson, has strung his lyre in
this style "Who works his brain
from mom till night, and oft from
night till mom, and cats a lunch
and wears a coat that any clerk
might scorn? the president. Who
wrestles with the digits nine till
figures fag his brain, to furnish
estimates and such and make the
reasons plain? the actuary. Who
ploughs around the field all day
and hustles for his pie, and never
to temptation yields to rebate,
twist or lie? the agent. Who
struts about and smokes cheroots
as if he owned the place, is up on
sports, knows all the ropes, and
and shows it in his face ? the office
boy. Who wears a giddy pompa
dour and shirtwaists rare displays,
and strews the mother tongue about
in many curious ways? the type
writer lady."
There is no Family Medicine so
favorably known as Pain-Kii.i.i:k.
For sixty years it has been used by
Missionaries in all parts of the
world, not only to counteract the
chimatic influences on their families,
but for the cure of all diseases of
the bowels, and for wounds, burns,
bruises, etc. Avoid substitutes,
there is but one Pain-Killer, Perry
Davis'. Price 25c. and 50c.
