y
or single, to insure his life. If mar
ried he has his wife and family to
provide for, and every unmarried
man has some relative or friend need
ing assistance. How much benefit
and relief from poverty can be as
sured, to those who survive us, by
the weekly expenditure of one or
two dollars in an insurance policy.
The thirty ninth annual report of the
New York Life Insurance Company
has just been issued, and our readers
should carefully read the following
extract from the Commercial World
and U. s. Reporter.
''The report shows cash assets of
S55, ,542, 902.72, an increase of ST.
TAP, ,505, 80; and divisible surplus
at four per cent. of So, ,002, ,5l4.17,
an increase of $53,672.3S, By the
New York State standard of four and
half per cent. the surplus would
exceed $1O,0OO,O00. The revenue
for the year was S13, ,6G1 ,350.66, an
increase of $1,71O, 702.97. The
amount paid in death claims was
S2,263, ,092.29, and the total dis
bursements to policy holders were
Sc, 699, ,390.40. The investments are
of the most desirable character,
chiefly consisting of United States
and other frst-class stocks and
bonds, the market value Of which in
excess of cost is $2,065, ,052 S3.
During the year the amount returned
to Tontine policy holders was 1872
215.12, and the Tontine fund aggre-
gated $2,23G, ,096.0S. The number
of policies issued during the year
was 1861, covering insurance of
S52, ,735, ,564, an increase Of 1888 in
the number of policies and SILL
410,044 in the amount of insurance.
The whole number of policies in
force on the first of January, 1884,
was SO, ,227, covering insurance to
the amount of S19S, ,74G,043 The
prudence with which investments
have been selected appears from the
fact that the excess of interest over
death losses was $449, ,771.G0.
Such an exhibit as the above
proves that the financial solidity Of
the Company is secure against all
probable contingencies, and fully
justifes the public confidence which
has placed this in the front rank of
the most prosperous life insurance
institutions in the country. The
management is characterized by such
prudence and sagacity, combined
with enterprise, liberality and
straightforward dealing as have ac-
complished results that are scarcely
paralleled in the history Of the life
insurance interest, The officers and
trustees are gentlemen of great eX-
perience in financial matters, of the
highest integrity and most prominent
standing, and their names are an
ample guarantee that the important
trusts confided to their keeping will
be guarded with the most watchful
and jealous care"

Honolulu. A man may patronize
half dozen bakers, or butchers, or
milkmen, OF groccrs, to satisfy his
wants, and that without increasing
his cost of living; but he cannot
patronize two telephone companies
without unnecessarily augmcnting
his expenses. Then if some people
have connection only with one cen
trail and others with the other only,
it is easy to see the inconvenience
arising thercfrom. lf the first COM
pany charged cXtortionatc rates, |
could understand the public giving
their support to the opposition; but
no reasonable objection has ever
been raised on that ground. Unless
am under a false apprehension,
when the new company was first
projected the principal stock of the
old company was owned and con-
trolled abroad, and the idea was to
have company purely Hawaiian.
This was reasonable enough, and
public sympathy went with the new
venture. Since then things have
changed, and the stock of the old
company is now owned by our own
people, and along with this change
has come a change in the peoples
enthusiasm for new company.
In view of this altered condition
of things, and also keeping in mind
the disadvantage to the community
of the co-eXistence of two separate
telephone systems, what would be
the most rational, wise and satis-
factory thing for the two companies
to do? | am entirely ignorant of
the views aud intentions of the COM
panies themselves. But | have an
opinion of my own, and that opinion
is in accord with the expressed views
of several others: it is this, that it
would be best to amalgamate-best
for the companies and best for the
general public. The first company
has its wires erected, it's instruments
placed, and its system in operation
but has no central Office of it's own.
and the one it holds and occupies on
the tenure of lease is in a dilapi-
dated state. The second company
has land Of its own in a good loca,
ton, on which to erect offices. be-
sides instruments and other ma.
terial. By combining the property
and capital of the two companies
the deficiencies of each would be
supplied and one strong company
constituted. 1t appears to me thai
such an arrangement should be sat
isfactory to the shareholders of botl
companies, and would undoubtedly
serve public convenience.

for plaintiff, Mr.. Kaulukou for de-
fendant, who pleaded to jurisdiction
and moved for the dismissal of the
case.
Mr.. j. Richardson gave evidence
that the plaintiff, with other Portu-
guese, had been arrested for break
ing the Sabbath that bail was re-
fused by the sheriff and the district
judge, he offered 500 bail for six
men but it was refused because the
day was Sunday. He had message
from Mr.. Dayton to bail them out.
Jose d~ Aruda testified tnat he
was in prison for two days and nights.
His wife and child were compelled to
90 to friends house. He did not
work on Sunday.
l.. Kahlbaum offered bail which
was refused. The Portuguese were
excited and threatened to breal;
down the prison. He had been ar
rested for shifting flume on Sun
day.
j. p. Kama, for the defence, tes-
titled that he was not present when
the men were locked up. He was
going Oh the following Monday to
try the men but felt satisfied they
would not be there. Nothing was
said about sueing him if he did not
take bail. He did not tell the sheriff
not to take bail, he only showed
him the law.
Judge Bickcrton, in giving his
decision, said the case was impor-
tant as it affected the rights of all
citizens. He quoted from Chap. Sc
of the Penal Code, sections 2, 5 and
6 pointing out the duties and discre-
tions of a magistrate. There was
no law against taking bail on Sun
day. The amount rendered was SAC
in excess of the fines that could be
imposed, and if they had not ap-
peared they could have been brought
before the Court and fined in addi-
ton to losing their bail. A Govern
ment officer must not consider the
trouble to himself, he was paid to
take trouble and he must carry out
the law. He was satisfied that the
counsel for defendant would not
have acted in such q manner not
withstanding his argument. He (the
Judge) considered that a grave error
of judgment had been made and he
fined defendant $50 damages with
costs.
An appeal was noted to the Inter,
mediary Court.

French And English Cooking.

The theories of the French and En-
glish cooks vary very widely. The form
er contend that all solid meats should be
subjected to a long, though gradual,
action of heat, so that all the fibrous
parts may be thoroughly cooked, and
thus leave but little work, according
to their views, for the digestive organs
to perform. The English cook, on the
other hand. allows but little time in
his roasting and broiling processes
or even In boiling, and declare
that in any other plan the genuine
flavor Of the meat is destroyed or lost.
Another notable difference lies In
their appreciation of favors. The
French cook can make an almost end
less variety of these from the same
meat. in neither of which will the
original one, belonging to the meat
itself, be recognized. The English
cook takes directly opposite view.
With him no flavor can be invented
which can approach that of the meat
The flavor of this must not be meddled
with. Whether beef, or mutton, or
lamb, or game is to be the dish, that
process is the best which can keep the
uoVok Va CaCu uiStiuCt uuu uiotiuS uiou-
able over and above any sauce or condi-
ment that may accompany 1t. Indeed,
no sauce that French cook could con-
coct could possible equal, according to
the notion of the Englishman, the juice
oozing from nicely roasted joint or
rib when sliced by the carver. There
Is another difference and one in which
we think the Frenchman has the best
side of the argument, and this Is in
point of economy. The French cook,
in all his processes, wastes nothing.
Everything is of use to him; and much
that would be thrown away by the
English cook as of no value, the French
with his ingenuity and skill succeeds in
Transforming into tasty dishes. Both
methods, however, have their advan-
tages, and we think judicious COM
bination of the two forms the best
system of cookery.-The Caterer.
