W. ID, Laphdm In tne Lewiston Journal.l
In the notice OF the late Col. John NJ. Frye
1t was stated th the source of the family
was ''old England which is doubtless cor
rect, but the further statement that his
grandfather, Gen. Frye, came from England,
is an error. Gen. Joseph Frye, the grantee
of Fryeburg and an early settler there, was
born in Andover, Massachusetts, in I'LL.
He was the son of John Frye of Andover,
grandson of Samuel Frye of the same town,
great grandson of Samuel, and great great
grandson of John Frye, who was born in
England in 1905, came early to Andover and
died there in 1898. General Joseph Frye
was therefore the fourth in descent from the
emigrant John. General Joseph Frye was
prominent man in Essex county, was
Justice of the Peace, Representative to the
General Court, and very useful in public af-
fairs. He served in the old French war, and
was at the siege of Loulsburg in 1855. He
was also at the unfortunate capture of Fort
William Henry in 1857, and was in COM
mand of the garrison. After the surrender
and contrary to the terms of capiJulation,
the Indians fell upon the disarmed soldiers
and slew many of them. Col Frye was
seized by savage, stripped OF all his cloth
Ing anu leu IOWdru Lu0 WOOu III a mduAcA
that left no doubt as to the purpose of the
Indian. Col. Frye determined to make one
| eff ,rt for his life, and in an unguarded mo-
ment be turned upon the savage, threw him
down. killed him with his own weapon, and
then made his escape into the woods. He
reached Fort Edward after several days in a
| completely nude and almost famished con-
| dition. He was commissioned General at
| the breaking out of The Revolutionary war,
and was for awhile in the army at Cam
| bridge and subsequently at Falmouth. but
| he soon resigned his commission and moved
| to Fryeburg, this township having
been granted to him on account OF
military services some sixteen years previ-
Gus. He died here in 1704, aged 83. He
married daughter of Gen. Poor OF Ando-
| yer, and had four sons, Capt. Joseph, Sam
uel, Nathaniel and Richard. If the late
| Col. John NJ. Frye was the grandson oi
| Gen. Joseph, he must have been the son o.
one of the above sons, who settled in Frye
burg and Conway. 1t is quite probable tina
if lineal descendant, Col. Frye was one
| generation farther removed from the Gener
| al than is given in the notice, for Gen. Frye
was born upward of 80 years before the lat
| Col. Frye was born.

The Providence Journal, in an article up
on "The Philosophy of Suicide" gives the
number of suicides in New York city during
1854 as 226, which is an increase of 65 over
the previous year. Of these 1877 were men
and 80 were women. A comparison of the
ages shows that the propensity to suicide in
creases with advancing years. Between the
ages of Is and 20 there were 5; between 20
and 20 there we're 81; between 80 and 40
there were 90; between 40 and so there
were Al; between so and go there were So;
between go and 70 there were 20; between
10 and 80 there were 8, and 3 above so years
OF age. Apparently it would seem that
there were more suicides between the ages
of 8 and 40, but when we consider that the
number of persons between those ages is
much larger than that above so years it will
be seen that the tendency to suicide In
creases rather than dfminishes with age. OF
the total number IS were Germans, go ma
tive born, 20 Irish, and the remaining 66 of
various natioaalities. The small proportion
of Irish suicides is attributed to the religi-
ous impressions of that race. Shooting and
haaging were the favorite methods of self
destruction.

Let us be consistent, esteemed contempo-
rary. A drum beaten by a member Of the
Salvation Army doesn't frighten horse
any worse than drum beaten by a member
OF minstrel troupe, or of a circus band, or
of band engaged In advertising an Island
resort or skating rink, or the Peoples the
atre. In the interest of some one of these
affairs drums were beaten in the street al
most every day last summer. Yet we never
heard that anybody requested the May
or to forbid it or complained of him because
he did not. Even our esteemed contempora.
ry had not then become aroused to the fright
full dangers of drum-beating.

President Pennell of the Senate expresses
the opinion that the session of the legisla-
ture need not be a long one. In the past as
a rule the people of Maine have not had
much reason to complain of dilatoriness on
the part of our law makers. They have gen
orally attended strictly to business, got
through in good season and gone home.
Seven or eight weeks has been about the av-
erage length of the sessions. The Massa-
chusetts legislature consumes as much time
at one session as the Maine legislature does
in three, and the former meets twice as Of
ten in the bargain.

production is insufficient for the local

term it. In fact, it is so ''inferior" that
great part Of it is not butter at all,

NUISANCES.

What is the use of the Government
organ talking about nuisances and con-
demning the condition of a nuisance
here and there, when it is we'll known
that the minute the other papers Of
Honolulu have brought the question
up, and have placed the blame Of these
sanitary nuisances where they properly
belong, on the shoulders of the Board
Of Health, the organ has Immediately
entered its protest and endeavored TO
defend the Board by placing the entire
blame upon others. If the Govern
ment organ is truthfully in earnest in
regard to any of these matters for
which the present Administration is
responsible, they can only make the
people believe they are, by following to
logical conclusion the arguments
which cluster around the unsanitary
condition of the city; these are suffi-
ciently illustrated, even by the few facts
published in Its own columns from
time to time, when the discussion OF
the question per Sc in not being
agitated.
Now if the Government organ is sin
cere, as il processes to be, we ask an
investigation and report on the follow
ing districts
In the district bounded by Nuuanu,
street on the East, Beretania street on
the North, the river on the West, and
the harbor on the South, embracing a
space of ground not to exceed 1000
feet square, more than one.third of the
populationof Honolulu rehoused- Say
5000 souls--embracing say four fifths of
the Chinese population Of Honolulu.
This space is net work OF alleys, from 2
to 8 feet wide one alley being only
two feet wide and sixty feet long ending
in all de sac sox5o feet. This space
has daily resident population of IA
souls, at times running up to twenty
persons. In many rooms the dodgers
do not enjoy to exceed 200 cubic feet of
space. The block bounded by Nuuanu
street on the South, enclosing space
I6S by &c PAGES, is simply packed with
human beings, and the same thing
occurs on the block North bounded by
Hotel, Beretania, Nuuanu and Mauna-
kea streets This dense population all
depend on open privies in this hot
climate. The smell in places is intoler-
able. In all this district poi factories
abound, the refuse being dumped in
the most convenient place OF deposit.
In the block beyond the Fish Market,
from town, is good sized lot filled out
into the harbor, the residence of several
families. This lot is almost entirely
comprised ofthe debris from neighboring
poi factories, The doctors tell us there
Daily Honolulu press. [volume] (Honolulu, Hawaiian Islands) 1885-1886, 1885-12-09

is much sickness in the neighborhood
Many animals are stabbed in the distric,
and there are no adequate means Of dis
posing of the animal filth.
After the Government organ fur
nIshes the taxpayers Of Honolulu with
comments on the above nuisances, and
logically explains who is responsible 70,
this state of the city's sanitation, We
will point cut some other nuisance:
equally as bad for future consideration
1t is very likely, however, that such dis
cussion will be avoided until afel
election.
