SANITATION.

1t is task of no small magnitude
which the Board of Health has, after
good deal of deliberation, decided
to undertake. If the course marked
out be followed faithfully and per-
severingly, material improvement in
the sanitary condition of the city
ought to be effected, sooner or later.
Whether the measures prescribed,
even if carried out to the fullest eX-
tent, will prove adequate to the
necessities of the case is another
question. 1t is very doubtful, in
our opinion, if this city can ever be
made clearly, or kept so, under any
regulations that are within the power
of the Board of Health to promul-
gate and enforce. There is condi-
ton of things existing here which
stands seriously in the way of thorough
sanitation. The town has grown up
in a village style, characterized by
an utter lack Of regulation, so that
n sort of proprietary rights has be-
come established in extremely vicious
aggregatlons of buildings and pre-
misses covering large areas. Only
radical legislation, in the supreme
interest of the public good and
safety, will be capable of setting
aside these rights.
A few evenings ago the writer
took walk through the district be-
tween King street and the water,
below Nuuanu street, in company
with physician who had a patient
to visit in the locality. Within
those bounds condition of things
exists which is enough to paralyze
all hope of material improvement
being effected by any ordinary
cleansing process and mere posting
up and trying to enforce regulations.
So closely built are the dwellings,
so narrow and crooked are the. lanes
leading to them, so abundant and
abominable are the receptacles of
filth, that if it were possible to have
the whole district thoroughly cleans
ed to-day, this day week it would in
all probability be in about as
presidential condition as ever.
There are lanes there, through which
hundreds of people have ingress
and egress to and from their dwell
ings, which vary in width from
eighteen inches to three feet, and
having bends and angles that make
them rival an Egyptian labyrinth.
These passages are reeking with de-
caying refuse tossed out of over
looking windows and doors, and
over the board fences on either side.
Front and rear of houses are alike
redolent of waste matter and all
sorts of offal. The front premises
of one cluster of houses frequently
form the rear of another, and are
dotted with ill-built and crafty
balanced privies perched on the
coral outcrop. These structures are
apparently sought to be made the
most prominent objects on the diff
ferent house lots, but they are less
abominable to the sense of sight
than to that of smell. Here and
there a variety of aggravation is

Some time ago it was somewhat
laboriously argued in portion of
the Honolulu press, that the Japan
csc were not Asiatics as to civiliza-
ton. They were progressive, while
the Chinese were stationary in the
midst of the nineteenth century
whirl. This is not wholly true.
China has gwen evidence in differ
ent ways, of late years, of a weak
ening in the foundations of her wall
against civilization. An additional
symptom of a progressive tendency
is now noted in the latest news from
that Empire. Lately the Empress
ordered a special council of Chief
Princes to consider the question of
railways, and this body decided in
favor of them by four to two. With
railways coursing through her vast
territory, China's eXclusiveness will
soon pass away.

1t seems the Alameda will not

The Canadian Inspector of Pri-
sons has reported that, owing to the
large increase of crime among the
Chinese of British Columbia, it will
be necessary to enlarge the peni-
tentiaries of the Province. A fact
like this one will be more potent to
influence the minds of taxpayers
than volume of reports favorable

the country.

Two Friends.

We have always had sincere af-
lection for that keen-witted and some
what skeptical scientist, who believes
less than he hears and not all that he
sees, and has the trick of discrediting
the signs of emotion with more critical
trankness than falls to the lot of most.
Exclusive and concentrated for his own
part, he does not take well with catho-
licity; and he looks on general amia-
bility, SO he says, us q "thundering'
fault. We know that to be with him
IS to be sacrificed before we leave him.
Yet we are glad to meet him, all the
same; thinking too that a little honest
f1aying-without witnesses-is by no
means unwholcsome for ones soul.
Then there is that other friend who
stands at the opposite end Of the scale

4 Great Year For Chewing Gum.

This is a great gum year in Maine,
osneciallv on the PenobscOt, and now
that the sun is climbing up into the
,orth a little and the lumbermen are
coming out, the air is fairly redolent
with the perfume OF the spruce. The
logs, knees, and bark arc not the only
valuable part of the great timber tree,
for the gum is worth considerable even
in its rough state, just as it is hacked
from the crotchcs of the old trees
There are two or three firms here
which buy large quantities of it from
the lumbermen and gum-hunters for
the purpose of refining it, as they say.
But as a general thing the refining con-
sists in adulteration with rosin. They
throw it into big kettle, bark and all,
ond boil it to about the consistency of
thick molasscs. skimming the impurities
off as they rise to the surface. Then.
if the purpose be to adulterate, some
lard or grease and lot OF rosin is add
ed. and in some cases little sugar.
The mixture then becomes thickcr,and,
after more stirring, is poured out on Il
slab. where, while it is yet hot, it is
rolled out in sheet about a quarter OF
an inch thick, and then chopped with
steel die into pieces half an inch
wide and three-quarters of an inch
long. These pieces are wrapped in
tissue paper and packed in wooden
boxes. There are two hundred pieces
in box. Some gum is treated in this
way without adulteration.
The best gum comes from no par
ticular locality, but always from the
biggest trees. The doctors up here
say chewing gum benefits the teeth.
The loggers, in their many idle hours
by the camp fire, whittle out miniature
barrels from blocks of cedar or white
pine, hollow them out, and fill them
with the choicest gum the woods afford
for gifts to their sweethearts, children,
or friends when they ''come down" in
the spring. Others, who go into the
woods for gum alone, bring down big
bags Of gum, and sell it to the manu-
facturers of the improved article. Up
here adulterated gum is called patent
gum.-New York Sam.
