The billiard Tournament.

The tournament to come off this week
at the Hawaiian Hotel is looked forward
to with eager expectation by all who
take an interest in the game, and it is
anticipated will be one of the finest eX
hibitions of billiards which has ever
taken place in this city. The first game
will be played this evening at s o'clock
between Saylor and McCleery. On
Tuesday evening Morris will play the
winner, and on Thursday the two win
ners will play off. The game is to be
1000 points up, straight billiards, and
Morris will play 1000 to $50 of his OPP
ponent's. The contest is for purse of
5000 in addition to gate money. With
view to keeping the attendance select a
charge of half dollar will be made on
each evening, every provision having
been made for the accommodation OF
spectators. 1t is not often that such a
bevy OF distinguished players are seen
together, and the opportunity therefore
should not be missed.

POLICE EFFICIENCY.

The escape of two prisoners from the
custody of the police within the past few
DAYS necessarily raises the question OF
police efficiency. In the first case, that
of Chinaman on his way to prison, the
fault did not lie with the officer in
charge, but with his superior officer who
sent seven prisoners in his custody, to
walk through the streets without any
restraint upon their personal liberty.
The Chinaman in question disappeared
among a crowd of his countrymen, and
the officer feared to follow him lest he
should loose all the other prisoners. 1t
certainly is surprising that they did not
likewise avail themselves of the oppOrtu-
nifty to regain their freedom, and the only
explanation is that they knew they
would be better off in Oahu prison than
depending upon their own resources out
side.
The second case reflects more injuri-
ously upon the system of management at
the city lookup. Particulars OF the es-
cape of Davis, the burglar, from the
lookup will be found in our local
columns, and need not be repeated.
There has been gross carelessness,
if not completely in this case.
Mr.. Dayton being absent from this
Island ON duty, the Marshal of the King
dom has personal charge, and is respon-
aible for the acts of his subordinates. 1t
is his duty to investigate and satisfy the
public in this matter There has been
far too great laxity in the Police Depart
ment heretofore, but the taxpayers have
made up their minds that there shall be
decided improvement both in system
and execution of police duty or they will
! insist upon a radical change.

MONDAY
THE SUPREME COURT.

Article 90 of the Constitution declares
that ''the Supreme Court shall consist Of
a Chief Justice and not less than two
Associate Justices, any one of whom
may hold the Court" If the COnstitu-
ton had used the phrase ''not more"
instead of mot less" an increase of the
number of judges could only have been
made by Constitutional amendment,
but as this provision of the organic law
reads it was competent for the Legisla-
ture TO enact that the Supreme Court
shall consist of fifty Judges, and
the Court could not have been consti-
tuted with less number if the King had
approved such a bill. As the matter
stands, however, by an Act approved
October Is, 1886, it is enacted: "Sec-
ton 1. The Supreme Court shall consist
of a Chief Justice and four Associate
Justices, any one of whom may hold the
Court" etc. And section 8 of the same
statute provides "This Act shall take
effect and be in force from and after its
approval"
The law in question having been pro-
mulgated, it now devolves upon the APP
pointing power to fill the two vacancies
on the Supreme Bench, without which
we doubt whether full term of Court
can Oe held. Ii the law had provided
that the Supreme Court should consist
of not more than five Judges nor less
than three, the King in Cabinet Council
might have postponed action under it
until the requirements of the country
rendered it necessary to fill the vacancies
upon the Bench, but no such discretion
is allowed. The law is mandatory, and
the exact number of Judges constituting
the Supreme Court is specified. 1t there
fore devolves upon the Executive branch
of the Government to fill up the va
cancies in the Judicial branch as re
quiTed by law.
Thus a very grave responsibility rests
upon the Cabinet, and one for the exer-
else of which it viii be held to strict ac-
count. The Cabinet itself even
is incomplete, and therefore hardly
competent to exercise such important
functions as are vested in it by the Act
amending the constitution of the Su
preme Court. Before the vacancies ON
the Supreme Bench are filled therefore,
the Executive branch of the Govern
ment should itself be fully constituted.
These remarks are made in a friendly
spirit The Constitution specifies how
the Executive should be constituted.
The law in turn provides for the cOnsti-
tuition of the Supreme Court. But there
is now what seems to be disposition to
ignore both the organic law of the
realm and the statute law, and we feel
it to be our duty to point out to the va
rious parties in interest that there is
danger in persistence in such Il
course. 1t is always the wiser
and safer course for any Gov
eminent, however strong and well es-
tablished, to travel within the lines OF
the Constitution and scrupulously OBJ
serve the law of the land.

A Thief Captured.

On Sunday morning shortly before 8
O'Clock man named J. POmpOn, who
occupies a room over Ramsey's store, on
Hotel street, was awakened by noise
in his room. He Immediately jumped
out of bed and found man in the room,
evidently in search of plumber. Pompon
asked him what he was doing there, and
then struck the intruder blow on the
face, causing the blood to flow. The
thief made off, but POmpon knowing
him, summoned the police and they
went into another room in the house,
occupied by Mike Coffee, alias NJ.
Crotty. The latter was in, and on being
charged with entering Pompon's room
said that he could not be arrested, as
the policeman had no warrant. This
formality was dispensed with, and Col
fee taken to the Station House. Officer
Hopkins went up to his room and there
found a watch, and also the key of Pom
pOn's room. 1t was hid in the bed be-
tween the sheets and the mattress. The
watch belonged to Pompon, and he also

as yet this has not been found. 1t is
supposed that Coffee threw it away.
The latter now stands charged with lar
ceny of a watch, and will have hear
ing in the Police Court this morning.
Coffee at one time drove an express,
but on account of drunkenness his Ii
cense was taken away. Since then he
has frequently asked Hack Inspector
Macy for a license, but the latter would
not issue it. He said he would get a
license if it cost him 5000, and further
more told Macy that if he could not get
living by driving an expires he would
make it some other way. About two
weeks ago he was arrested for disturb
ing the quiet of the light.

"oP1UM IN THE PUBLIC SCHOOLS"

In Saturdays issue we referred to the
charge made against the Educational de
partment, to the effect that the boys in
certain Government school are already
debauched with opium. The charge
was made in such a way as to create the
impression that Opium was procured, if
not consumed in school hours. Such
charge is one of the most serious that
could be made, and as the belief was
general that it referred to a city school,
considerable anxiety was aroused in the
minds of parents and guardians. because
if true, it pointed to a looseness of man
agement which appeared to strike at
the efficiency of control exercised by the
Board of Education. The time and place
when this charge was made, and the re-
spectability of the gentleman making it,
added to its gravity. But for these con
siderations we should not probably have
taken notice of the affair in the pointed
way We did.

ever, came out on Saturday in a letter to
a contemporary in which he virtually
withdraws it. He says he did not refer
to any school on this Island, AMI that he
does not believe, nor did his informant
state, that the opium was used in school
or during school hours. In short, he de-
clares that neither the Principal nor the
Board OF Education are responsible. He
says: ''The indulgence is in the opium
dens and not during school hours" and
therefore, beyond the control Of either
the Principal Of the school or the Board
Of Education" To put it in brief, a
most serious charge was made against
the Principal os a Government school,
and indirectly against the Board Of Edu-
cation, without a scintilla OF evidence to
sustain it; and now, when the mis-
chief has been done, Mr. Cruzan prom
ises to write to his informant for all the
facts in the case at the request Of the
Secretary Of the Board. Better late than
never; but one would have thought that
a knowledge Of the facts should have
preceded the charge.
Some good however, may result from
this incident 1t has directed public at
tention to possible danger to school
children everywhere throughout the
group, and clearly imposes upon the
Board of Education the duty Of con-
slant, vigilant and untiring supervision
of the children attending Government
schools, to prevent them being contain
mated by the degrading opium vice.
And it is equally pointer to the mana
gers of schools not under Government
control. If the pupils of the public
schools can be debauched by the opium
habit, so also may pupils at private
schools

The Rainfall.

The rainstorm, which was suspended
during Friday, again set in at an early
hour Saturday morning and continued
during the day almost without intermis-
sion until nearly daybreak on Sunday,
the streets of the city being in terri
bly, muddy condition. The total fall at
the ice works, Nuuanu Valley, as regis
tered by Mr.. j. X Wilder, was 1.52
inches, of which SO inches fell since
SATURDAY. morning The wet weather
has not been confined to Honolulu. At
every point from which advices are to
hand it has been raining more or less
heavily. This has been the case at
many different points round Oahu.
News by the Kinau, which arrived from
Hawaii yesterday morning, indicates
that rain has also been general through
out that island. Purser q. G. Beckley
says there has been a splendid down
pour in the Hilo and Kau districts !;
so also was there at KeauhOu up to the
time the steamer left on Friday. At the
Volcano the weather was such that Mr..
and Mrs. Castle, who had taken a trip
thither, found it necessary to defer their
departure. Three other tourists, whom
necessity compelled to return at once,
report a drenching journey. A heavy
stream OF water was pouring over the
bluff little to the left of Keauhou, that
part of the island having been visited by
something approaching a deluge. Com
ing up the Kau coast, no less than four
teen large STREAMS were counted, and it
is thought that even more rain has

THE RAILROAD CENTER.
Tw enty Passenger Trains ry Day to and
from Wichita.

By the new time tables received to-day
from the Santa Fe and from the Frisco
lines We see that the latter puts on,next Sun
| day, another through train from st. Louis
to Wichita, and on to connection with the
Santa Fe at Halstead. The new passenger
train from st. Louis arrives at Wichita ut
6:3O in the morning. connecting with the
Santa Fe Pacific express at Halstesd at $50.
The evening train on this rosd arrives at
Wichita at $50. The morning train for ST.
Louis leaves at 9:25, and the evening train
for St. Louis ut 900.
BY tho ether time table We see that the
Santa Fe will hereafter run the Wichita ex-
pres. on through to Caldwell, arriving here
from Kansas City at 7:45, getting
back to Wichita the next morning at
s:a5. This arrangement will permit the
people of Derby, Mrivsne, Belle Plaine,
Wellington and Caldwell TO come to Wichita
in the morning and return home in the early
evening, giving business men full dsy in
the city. The change is most excellen;
one. and very advantageous TO cur city,
which fact the EAGLE takes pleasure in &C
knowledging. In fact the Santa Fe could
not have made sn arrangement more in ac-
coriance with the business interests of this
city.
The new arrangements of time tables COM
bined and in connection with the Wichita
and Western, gives our city twelve passen-
ger trains per dsy-in and out-st the union
depot. Counting the passenger trains in
and out at the Fl Scott and Wichita depot
and the Wichita and Colorado depot gives
twenty passenger trains in ard out every
dAy at Wichita
