HYDRUPATnY.

ntDNuphluI.
EDITOR BULLETIN Having placed
my services before the Hawaiian
Government some time ago, which
will involve q considerable risk for
my own personal safety, for the
benefit and alienation of the un-
fortunate Lepers, and upon reso-
luton brought before the Assembly
by the Hon. Noble Rhodes, "that
our system of hydropathy be made
available for the Lepers," | have
been much surprised at the factious
opposition made by some members
of the Assembly, objecting to our
treatment, first, on account of hydro
pathists not possessing a diploma of
medicine.
have to intimate that this di-
ploma of medicine is the very thing
we do not desire to possess. A di-
ploma of medicine, with all its ac-
companying infinite number of
drugs and chemicals, is the very
thing which we repudiate and abhOr.
Therefore for an hydropathist to
enter upon the study of medicine
would be waste of energy, and a
retrograde movement to fill his mind
with the accumulated rubbish of an
effete system which is fast passing
away, as u remnant of the dark
ages.
The unfortunate Lepers of this
Kingdom have been dosed with
medicine in galore these last twenty
five years-yes, medicine of every
kind which human skill could invent
and the public know with what
results, with yearly increasing num-
bers of poor wretched diseased
creatures chargeable upon the Gov
ernment, resulting in gross de-
moralization of these people, many
Of whom go down to death every
year without any possible hope from
the Materia Medica of all the
schools of medicine. Every person
in this Kingdom who dies, botl
young and old, rich and poor
literally soaked with physic, which
is amply proved will not avail fol
the cure of these constitutional
diseases. 1t is strange to see per
sons advocating system which has
been tried over and over again will
such abortive results.
Having been n student of hydro
pathy and hygiene for u period o
over twenty years, | have witnessed
its healing power in nearly ever,
disease under the sun, and l believ
that hydropathy will yet restore
large proportion of these diseased
people to sound health, and as sool
as our science of hydropathy ha
, operated upon them it will be re
vealed who are the quacks and wh
!, are the true physicians.
Moreover | consider it unbecom
+ ing for one gentleman to cast re
i Elections upon another because b
H, cannot meet his views, and say tina
his patients would be either scalde
to death in hot water or chilled t
death in cold, or any such ridicu
: lous nonsense.
: wish also to state that hydro
. pathy is not an experimental sy'
TEN, but is a positive science, a

1t was Mr.. kaunamano who intro
duced the bill to amend the Penal
Code so as to make the Hawaiian
the authoritative version in case Of
"a radical and irresconcilable differ
ence" between that and the English
version. When, therefore, we said
that Mr.. Aholo "fathered' the bill,
we were only right to the extent
that he promoted the document to
its second reading.

We cheerfully commend Mr..
Kcau's zeal in the matter of repairs
to Liliha street, and endorse the
statement that ''it is one Of the worst
streets in the city," but are not so
ready to sanction the method
adopted for remedying the evil.
Moreover the assertion that "streets
on which foreigners live are kept in
good repair, while those inhabited
by natives are neglected" is er-
roneous. Probably the best thor
oughfare in the entire district is the
continuation of King street, from
Liliha street to and beyond Kaiihi,
and large majority of the iuhabi-
tants along its course are native
Hawaiians.

A motion to suspend the rules is
not debatable, according to common
parliamentary practice. The deci-
sion of the Assembly yesterday, in
sustaining the chair on this point,
conforms the Hawaiian practice to
the above rule, and its enforcement
will likely save much valuable time.

TeXas-Maryland Romance.

A writer in the Baltimore Sun saws
a good deal of interest was excited in
Greensborough, Nd, few days ago
by a rumor that Texan had eloped
with buxom gypsy girl from a camp
near the town, and that the father of
the girl was hunting the runaway
couple with a gun. 1t seems that the
1exan is a gypsy, and formerly of the
same band as the girl. She is very
pretty. and he fell in love with her.
They became engaged, but during
horse trade between the father and his
future son-in-law hot words ensued
which brought blows, and from blows
the father sought to protect himself
with an axe, when the young man
drew a revolver and shot him, but not
fatally. He Immediately informed his
hancee OF what had happened and of
his intention to seek pastures new.
With promises from her that when he
should return he would find her watt
ing for him, and that she would also
endeavor to make her father forgive
and forget, he left for Texas. This all
happened three years ago. Since then
the young man has kept his fiancee
posted as to his whereabouts. Having
prospered in his career in Texas, he re-
solved to return, and, despite the
fathers continued opposition, secure
his sweetheart if he could.
With this resolution he started for
the camp, which was then at Chester
town, Nd, but before he reached there
the gypsies had left. Following in
their wake, he reached Greensboronqh.

confded his troubles, and accepted
their offer of assistance. Being afraid
to enter camp, he provided one of them
with five-dollar bill to get his fortune
told, and started him for the camp.
He was not only to get his fortune
told by the Texans Sweetheart, but
also to tell her that her lover awaited
her on the outskirts of the camp. The
plan succeeded, and the girl met her
long absent lover at the place agreed
upon. That night they hired a team
in which they drove to the hotel in
Greensborough, but not without being
followed. The father, who had been
on watch. discovered the scheme, and
endeavored to have the gypsy Texan
"locked up for a week or SOL His
request, however, was not granted by
the local authorities. With pleadines
and money his anger was finally an
Peased. and he again took in his band
the young man and his sweet heart.
The man ordered stakes pulled on
Tuesday morning and the band de-
parted, but the Texan says he Goes net

life.

There were two bright little girls off
for holiday with their Western uncle,
big good-natured man with a dia-
mond breast-pin, and his voluble son,
lad about the age of his little cousins,
whom he constantly pestered by his
rude and dominating behavior. The
boy was product which it is the de-
spair of all Europe to produce, and our
travellers had great delight in him as an
epitome of American "smartness." He
led all the conversation. had confident
opinions about everything, easily put
down his deferential papa, and pleased
the other passengers by his self-suffi-
cient know-it-all air. To boy who
had travelled in California and seen the
Alps it was not to be expected that
this humble mountain could afford
much entertainment, and he did not
attempt to conceal his contempt for it.
When the stage reached the Rip Van
Wrinkle House, halfway, the shy
schoolgirls were for INDUCING in a lit
tie sentiment over the old legend, but
the boy, who concealed his ig-
norance of the Irving romance

the outlines of it, was not to be taken
in by any such chat. and though he
was little staggered by Rips own
cottage, ana by the sight of the cave
above it which is labelled as the very
spot where the vagabond took his
long nap, he attempted to bully the
attendant and drink mixer in the hut.
