Much Interest Exhibited. Mrs. 13. F. Dillingham's story "Ka lani," and George H. De la Vergne's "The White Queen" were awarded first and second prize, respectively, by the judges appointed by the Literary Cir cle of the Kilohana Art League to pass judgment on the short stories sub mitted for prizes offered by the league. The award was made last evening in the league hall on Hotel street in the presence of the members and their friends. Miss Edna Kelley read the stories to the audience. Her well known ability as a reader, and her study of the stories given last evening, enabled her to present them in a most pleasing way with all their finer points and important features brought well to the fore. There were four stories read in all, including the prize winners. Their presentation consumed an hour and a half and furnished a delightful enter tainment. The hall was well filled, as is usual when league entertainments are given. It was beautifully decora ted for the occasion with ferns and palms and handsome tapas. The storm kept few people away. The judges had of course come to an agreement before the evening. The decision was not announced until after the stories were read. In order partly to test the accuracy of their verdict, and partly to add to the pleasures of the occasion, the audience was asked to vote upon the merits of the stories. Attached to each program was a bal lot on which was printed the titles of the four stories. At the conclusion of the reading each one present was asked to number the siories in order of preference. The bal lets were then gathered and counted. It was understood that the result would not affect the verdict of the judges. This had been reached after much reading and a careful study of the 20 odd stories submitted in the competi tion. The judges selected by the league were Mr. J. F. Brown, Mrs. F. S. Dodge, Rev. Dr. C. M. Hyde, Rev. Alex. Mackintosh, Hon. H. M. Sewall, Miss Mary Burbank, Mr. M. M. Hurd, Mr. M. M. Scott, Miss Anna M. Paxis, Mrs. R. F. Woodward. Much interest has for many weeks been centered in this prize competition. The league has several branches. It is not limited to the development of pictorial art. The league has at all times during its existence sought to develop Art as exhibited in its vari ous forms of expression. It has ac complished this end in several lines. It was known that there is much latent talent in Honolulu among those who had never to any great extent written for publication. The offering of prizes for short stories was decided upon to encourage this talent. To secure stories having local color it was stipulated that the competition would be open only to stories having the theme dis tinctly Hawaiian. It was believed that the imany intensely interesting historic incidents of the Islands, and the na tural topographical beauty of the country would furnish a wide enough range of subjects to make the contest interesting. The stories submitted were all care fully written and well developed. The league has been gratified at the re sponse. It is proposed to publish the prize stories as it is believed the public will be interested in them. Must Pay the Penalty. All petitions for new trials and par dons having been denied, the two Jap anese from Maui under sentence of death in Oahu prison will be hanged this forenoon. In high police circles unusual interest attaches to the double execution. Only physicians and news paper representatives will be admitted. Yoshida killed the wife of a Japanese after he had failed in efforts to make the woman leave her husband, and had a slight quarrel with her. Sagata killed his wife and child. About the only reason advanced for this was that he hated the woman and baby. I have been afflicted with rheuma tism for fourteen years and nothing seemed to give any relief. I was able to be around all the time, but constant ly suffering. I had tried everything I could hear of and at last was told to try Chamberlain's Pain Balm, which did, and was immediately relieved and in a short time cured. I am happy to say that it has not since returned. JOSH. EDGAR, Germantown, Cal. For sale by all druggists and dealers. Ben son. Smith & Co., Ltd., wholesale agents for Hawaiian Islands.

The dinner given at the White House in honor of President and Mrs. Dole, says an exchange, broke the record for the number of guests and elaborateness of the dec-orations. All the flowers came from the White House conserva tory. If they had been furnished by a private florist, they would have cost thousands of dollars. In the east room there were 2,000 carnations, 5,000 sprigs of azaleas, 2,400 spikes of Ro an hyacinths, 200 spikes of Dutch hya cinths, 2,100 violets, 400 roses, 400 tu lips, 400 nun flowers, 500 ferns, more than a mile of garlands of smilax, 100 large palms and 1,000 blooming plants in pots. Upon the dinner table there wrere 1,005 rare orchids, COO lilliesof the valley, 100 spikes of Dutch hyacinths, 100 pots of Chinese primroses, 300 pots of maidenhair ferns, 25 of farleyense and 175 strings of smilax. The table was decorated by Mr. Pfister, the head gardener of the White House conserva tory, while the adornments of the east room were designed and executed by Mr. Brown, the head gardener of the public propagating grounds, who has decorated the east room on every oc casion of ceremony for 27 years ever since the marriage of Nellie Grant. A Rain Wall. It was stated in this paper on Mon day last that on the Saturday before there had been one of the sharpest tropical showers ever seen here and that it was a local rainfall. In the makai direction the rain ceased on the Esplanade. Will Harris of Lewers & Cooke was at the Myrtle boat house during the downpour. There was not a drop of rain falling there and he did not come into the flood until al most :U of the Kakaako district, com ing u. .own. The wall was definite as a stone wall. From the boat .house during the storm there was no sight of the Executive building or much of the town. From the waterfront the show er was like a heavy mist or fog. Supreme Court.

That's the confidence we have in our goods, and that's why we are not afraid to stand by them, not only before, but after they are sold. All other goods perish, or are con sumed in a short time and the dealers' responsibility soon ceases, but a choice piece of Jewelry or Silverware lasts forever, and the Jewelers' responsibility with it. It is to your advantage to pur chase such, where the guarantee is your safeguard, where great distance does not make the guarantee value less to you, and where it is the honest endeavor to give satisfaction in every instance.
