ONLY I4NEW LAWS
Some Data on Work of
Legislature So Far.
There Have Been Presented 114
Acts Petitions and Resolutions
In House Task of Committees.
There are a number of passed bills
in the hands of President Dole and
the stream of acts approved by bo:h
Houses will flow pretty constantly in
the direction of the Chief Executive
from now to May .11, ithe last day of
the session.
Up to yesterday but fourteen acts
cf the Legislature had become laws.
Eleven of these were introduced in
'the House and three originated in the
Senate.
Members of the House have so far
presented for tae consideration of the
whole assembly eighty-one acts. The
Senators have brought in thirty-three
acts. In all one lnindred and fourteen.
Each branch has the same number of
members fifteen. In these totals are
included acts brought forward by 'Min
isters of the Cabinet, those officials
having the privileges of either branch,
barring alone the right to vote.
Yesterday was the fifty-sixth day of
the session, which by constitutional
provision is limited to ninety days,
though the time may be extended
tinder limit by "the President.
The House has received ninety-two
petitions.
There have been returned to the
House one hundred and one reports.
House members have asked of the
Executive ninety-.two questions.
Seventy-nine resolutions have been
introduced into the House.
Miscellaneous documents to the
number of seventy-four "have found
their way to the desk of the House
clerk.
The great burden of the Legislative
work just at this time is upon the
committees. At no session :have com
mitteemen been so thorough, untiring
and willing. Through this means the
scope of the work of the Legislature
.proper has been greatly extended.
Time after time committees have wait
ed upon the pleasure , of individuals
and interests desiring hearing upon
measures. While the Houses have
often been in recess for half a day,
it wil'l be found that nearly all of the
members on both sides have put in
better than average office hours on
duty. Every afternoon and nearly
every evening there have been com
'mittee meetings.
From now to the 'end of the session
the work will .become more and more
arduous. Of necessity some of the
measures will be ihairried along their
courses.' This means burning of the
midnight incandescent. Only a few
more bills will be introduced. There
will not be a great amount of new
work. There is a real mountain of
work on hand right now.
Both Houses convene at 10 every
morning. It is seldom that the at
tendance of spectators amounts to any
thing; at all. lawmaking here 'has not
developed any orators and what lob
bying is undertaken is done down town
or in the committee meetings.
Handling Coffee.
Hackfeld & Co. Ltd., have now in
their warehouses here between G,000
and 7,000 bags of coffee of the crop of
the present year. Heavy shipments
lately have been from Olaa and Puna.
This corporation has on the premises
at Queen and Fort streets an extensive
and complete new plant for the prepar
ation of rough coffee for the market.
This plant is now being worked to its
full capacity constantly. Coffee pick
ing for the season has ended at Waia
nae. This plantation has taken off
about 350 bags. From Maunaweli, W.
G. Irwin's place, on the other side of
this Island, there .has come about 75
bags. There are many thousands of
bags of coffee yet to come to Hack
feld & Co. ltd. It is known that some
of the Hawaii planters who have pick
ed, are waiting for the market to im
prove. A Former Resident.
Bruce Waring, who was formerly
well known here in the real estate busi
ness, is said to be in Seattle at present.
It was always the intention of Mr. War
ing to return to Honolulu when annex
ation had been accomplished. The gen
tleman has been in Central America
for a couple of years. It is a circum
stance worthy of note that Mr. Waring
journeyed from an Eastern city to
Seattle for the purpose of meeting Mr.
Ilemens, owner of the property oppo
site the new fire station lately pur
chased by Mr. Desky, with whom Mr.
Waring was associated in business
here. It will be somewhat of a sur
prise to Mr. Waring to learn that the
land he desires to possess came into
the list of his old partner some time
BOCK BEER
Is a treat indeed. That's delicious
beer for yen. As delightful as any one
will ask for. Brewed in the early fall,
of carefully selected hops and malt.
Of mature age and double strength.
Have you tried it at the Criterion
Saloon? It's just the right temperature.

close commingling of major and minor
keys with a predominance cf the lat
ter, and by peculiar and effective liar
monies, that stir one with sysierious
power.
His music is that of the open air.
of field and mountain of flowers and
sunshine and of storm and strife in
quick succession.
It is a tribute to Greig's music that
these who find themselves satiated
even with rhe music of the world's
masters have found new charm and
freshne.-s in the untrammeled meas
ures of the Norwegian composer.
For the expression of the peculiar
individuality of Greig's music, the
shorter forms of composition have
been chosen by him, thereby special
ly adapting ihem to the modern con
cert program and enabling the presen
tation of complete numbers with a
wide range of motive. Greig, like
Schumann and Chopin, and between
whom there are many points of resem
blance, is a master of composition for
the piano, but as a glance at the even
ing program will show, has not con
fined his work to this instrument.
The knowledge of Greig's works and
the admiration for them has been ex
tended by his own delightful interpre
tation of them in concerto in London.
Paris and Germany, he being though
net in front rank, an exceptionally line
pianist.
It would be unfair f.tfr me to tax
your patience further with a musical
program awaiting you, and I shall only
add that a recent musical item has
come to my attention, stating that
Greig and his accomplished wife had
performed before the Queen at Wind
sor, and that he had been the recipi
ant of the Jubilee medal a deserved
honor. At the present time he should
be returning to his home in Norway.
Surely it would be a pleasure to him
in that distant Northland ,to know that
in the mid-Pacific, his work was
known and his genius appreciated.
3IISS HART ENTERTAINS.
Waikik Grounds and Residence
Ablaze With Lights.
A thoroughly enjoyable dance was
given by Miss Hart at Waikiki last
evening. More than a hundred guests
responded to the invitation and the
lanai was well filled at every number.
The house and grounds were very
prettily decorated for the evening.
Long Sines of colored lanterns were
hung between the trees on the lawn
and the illumination was 'brilliant.
There were flags hung about the ver
andasand the lanai, which was clear
ed for dancing, was a profusion of
greens. Excellent music was furnish
ed by the quartette.
The night was perfect. The wind
died down with the sun, making it
possible to serve the refreshments on
the lawn. There were 16 numbers on
the program. Dancing commenced
shortly after S o'clock and lasted until
nearly midnight.

GIVE YOURSELF WEIGHT.
Don't give yourself away by accept
ing any of the inferior brands of beer.
Be onto yourself and insist on getting
"Rainier" and you will be looked upon
as being intelligent and up-to-date,
especially if you patronize the Favor
ite Saloon.
W. M. Cunningham, Proprieor of
this well-known resort, has been In
the business for many years, and 13 a
connoisseur in liquo'rs. His establish
ment is always orderly, and, with the
services of his assistant, Mr. Thomp
son, customers are promptly supplied.
Beware of "cheap" ball
ing powders. Alum makes
good medicine but bad food.
Ask your doctor.

No tetter way to stop the leak,
than by getting a purse with some
lasting quality in the leather.
We believe a poor purse is dear
at any price; and for that reason
will not allow them to creep into
our stock.
Our leathers are all choice Seal,
Morroco, Calf, Hog-Skin, Monkey,
Lizard, Rattle Snake, Kangroo,
and other choice skins.
The mountings and shape leave
nothing to be desired, and so differ
ent from anything else in the city,
that you are assured of a choice and
exculsive patiern beside the lasting
quality of the leather itself.
We also have a good selection of
silver and silver gilt chain purses,
to be carried with a chain round the
neck. Very stylish for stylish
people.
