TRADE IMPROVES SLOWLY.
ttuii k < o.’s Report of Basinet* for the, >
Past Week.
It. G, Don A* Co., in tln-ir weekly
review of trade, say: Business is
gaining, but it is a constant complaint
that the improvement i« glow. This
is because very few realize liow heavy
a load business lias to drag after it in
climbing up again. Uncertainties
weigh heavily.
There lias been great encouragement
daring the past week in the fact that
November payments are far more sat¬
isfactory than whs expected and yet
the extensions of the month would
have seemed alarming in other years.
Merchants who collect part of the
amount due are rejoiced,hut their buy¬
ing power is not as laTge usual. The
extraordinary shrinkage in purchase
for consumption, if lessening, has still
marie it impossible for many firms to
go on as before, and the largest fail¬
ure id the past week, that of the ’1 bur¬
in r-Why land Company, illustrates cm
barrassiiii nts which cannot betermina

Disappointing.
A Ban Francisco special says: The
steamship Australia from Honolulu
arrived inside the golden gate at 8:40
o’clock Saturday forenoon. She

political situation. The new United
States minister, Air. Willis, presented
his credentials to President Dole, of
the provisional government, and had
not indicated prior to the d parture
of the Australia any intention ou tbe
part of the United States government
to insist upon the restoration of
Queen Liliankanlani.

AS IN THE LONG AG'->.
ti ia tbe long ago, my love
As In the long ago—
r wander o'er the dear old place.
Each object there recalls thy lace
Each fragrant zephyr breathes a sigh,
For tender joys in days gone by ;
Sow falls again the evening glow.
And calls the thrash so soft and low,
As in the long ago, my love,
As in the long ago.
As in the long ago, my love.
As in the long ago—
We wander slowly, hand in hand.
In young love’s dreary wonderland,
Again the light of evening skies
Shines in mine own from thy dear eyes
Again the distant chimes so low.
Peal forth the hour in measures slow,
.As in the long ago, my love,
As in the long ago.
As in the long ago, my love.
.As in the long ago—
The vespers' dying echoes peal
Among the hill. Again I kneel
Aud moan and weep beside thy grave.
Where grass plumes in the wild winds wave
And sway in mute grief to and fro.
While calls the thrush so s i l and low
As in the long ago. my love,
As in the long ago. Globe.
