AN EARTHQUAKE HOUSE.

Cincinnati has an earthquake
house. 1t stand on the east side of
Pike street, and now shelters David
Sinton, the venerable millionaire,
and Charles Taft, his son-in-law,
and their family. Report has it that
the house was built in 1915 by Mar
tin Baum, who still retained a vivid
recollection of the earthquakes of
1911 and 1912, He believed that
there would be future Developments
of the same dread and mysterious
subterranean influences, and he
built in that belief. The house is a
1-story structure of great superb
cial dimensions the walls are of
cubic dimensions sufficient to sus-
tain at least hundred times their
present weight, and iron girders and
stout iron braces in every corner
render the building proof against
the lateral movements which were
the most destructive feature of the
earthquake of 1911. This is proof
in it self of the impressive lesson of
that early disturbance Cincinna-

AUTHORSHIP OF THE SPANISH Ma.
TIONkL SONG,

A Berlin newspaper claims that
the Spanish National hymn was
composed by Frederick III of Prus-
sia, and that trustworthy Spanish
authors admit his authorship of the
"Marcha Real" The story is that
one day, when the Spanish Ambas-
sador, was in the palace at Berlin,
the King handed him the march.
The Ambassador, who was a great
admirer of the King, Immediately
sent the composition to Madrid,
where it was received with tremen-
dous applause, and is still the most
popular melody in Spain. When in
1869, Marshal Serrano offered a
prize for the best melody which
could be used as national hymn,
more than five hundred compositions
were sent to him, but none of those
were found good enorgh to displace
the melody of Frederick ii.

AN EASY WAY TO A LIVING.

Residents out on the plains, be-
tween Honolulu and Punahou, have
made frequent complaints to this
office of their horses being stolen from
their yards and paddocks atnight.
A gentleman living on King street,
in the neighborhood above indicated,
reported this morning that his horse
had recently been taken from his
ward. One man in particular, n
native named Napoleon, is said to
be engaged in this discreditable and
annoying practice, only he is too
sharp to allow himself to be caught
in the act. The object sought is, n
reward for the return of the stolen
animal. Peoples horses are taken
and secreted unit owners offer a
reward for their recovery, where
upon the thief produces the horses
and claims the reward. A very easy
method of making a living, but not
exactly in accordance with the con-
stitution, nor agreeable to the views
of poor people who have a natura
aversion to buying the same horse
half dozen times without selling
him once. If one person, as report
ed, is well known to be the princi
pal operator in this novel business
there should be no insurmountabl'
obstacle to his being caught i'll th'
act. 1t is manifestly the duty O
the police to take the matter il
hand, and if no other expedient b.
available, the person suspected cal

The PLOT DEVELOPS.

The programme opened in last
session of the Legislative Assembly
is being gradually acted out. The
various schemes engineered through
the House for providing for favo-
rites at the peoples expense, are
becoming more Ineligible to the
public, from day to day. One Of
the permanent settlements passed
with such profuse liberality of other
peoples money by the servile majo-
rity was explained few days ago
in the Adoerliser's "by authority"
notices. 1t was not possible for
two of the Court favorites to hold
the office of Governess of Kauai, at
the same time. Hence the arrange
ment, by which one resigned on II
fat permanent settlement to make
room for the others installment
into the gubernatorial chair. In
this mornings announcements, the
curtain rises on a fresh act. The
Minister of Interior comes before
the public as Attorney-General, pro
tempore, in place of j. l.. Kaulukou,
resigned. The appointment of Mr..
Kaulukou to the Attorney-General-
ship, while holding the office of
Marshal, was well understood, at

A POINTED CONCLUSION.

The "pointed conclusion" of our
article on harbor accommodation, in
yesterdays issue, to the effect that
some 800 acres of tide land, the
property of two private gentlemen,
should be purchased by the Govern
ment, was reached with the full
knowledge of the fact that "there is
no provision whatever in the Appro-
priation Act for this expenditure" !"
But we presume it is quite within
the province of the Government to
inaugurate negotiations, with the
view of bringing the matter before
the Legislature at its next meeting,
and asking for an appropriation for
the purchase of the land. This is
what our reference to the matter
was intended to suggest. Its
urgency IS apparent from a fact
known to us, that a wealthy foreign
corporation will probably endeavor
to effect purchase of the land in
question. Whether the present
owners are desirous of selling, or
even willing to do so, we are not
aware. The conclusion of the mat
ter is this, the land on the other side
of the harbor should become the
property of the Government, and
the longer negotiations aiming at
that object are deferred, the more
difficult and costly may be its
accomplishment.

DUTY OF FIRE POLICE.

The Fire Police organization is an
important and necessary part of q
complete Fire Department. But to
fulfil its mission effectively, its men,
bers must be early at the scene of
fire, and initiate action promptly at
the start. If crowds of spectators
are allowed at first 70 encroach upon
the space that should be reserved
for the operations of the firemen, it
will be difficult to clear them away
afterwards. The first duty of the
fire police is to prevent the undue
encroachn. .ent of the public at the
beginning. These remarks have
been suggested by the assertion that
at the fire on the w. G.. Hall, the
police did not interpose their author.
