Another worthy organiration.

In connection with her good work
among the poor of this city, Mrs.
Southwick has organized in Fowler's
Yard free school for the children of
poor parents. The object of this school
is to give to those children, chiefly
German and Norwegian, who do not
attend any of the public schools, an
elementary training in all the lower
branches of learning, simple instruction
in the principles of temperance and
promotion of health, and to encourage
them in the habits of cleanliness, self
help, order, good morals and pure
thoughts, which may not only be useful
to them in after life, but may qualify
mind, soul and body to be useful to
Others Some of the German residents,
with their usual generosity toward
Mrs. Southwick's objects for charity,
are the principal supporters Of this
school, and Mr.. Fowler donates a
liberal amount per month, whilst
others interested in it have come for
ward with their mite to assist in this
good work The teacher is Miss
Frances Johnson, whose amiability and
love of children, together with the
necessary qualifications, especially fit
her for the work This organization is
another move in the right direction, and
should meet with the sympathy and Co
operation of all who desire to see the
coming generation of Hawaii stronger
in morality than the present 1t is to
be hoped that the. generous donation:
will be continued that Mrs. Southwick':
school may be,a prominent success. -

kobt' ]. Creighton. Mr.. Creighton
has been assisted in his labors by Prof
w. ID. Alexander, Mr.. +. L. Clarke
and Mr. Wray Taylor. This is the
third year of the new publication, and
is great improvement upon those
which have proceeded it, both in mat
ter and model, as well as in statistical
accuracy. 1t is but just to add, how
ever, that the improvement is mainly
due to the fact that the work has been
remodeled, as nearly as possible, after
"Thrum's Almanac and Annual" which
has brought such work, in the twelve
years of its publication, very near per
fiction. Some of the leading features
of the old work have been SO CLOSELY
followed as to give the new publication
considerable merit. The price of the
work is fifty cents--the same as
" Thrum's Annual"
They say That the threat to "bull-
doze" the Opposition, by instituting
criminal suits, is all bosh that if the
Government wants any work of that

these Islands, and who is now try

that the streets are not SO bad as the
Government that the Ward-Vernon
troupe will not be able to perform
again before they leave for the Coast

running on the Opposition ticket for

be honest men--which is more than
can be said for some of the Govern.
ment party that the steamer ST Paul
did bring some interesting news yester.
day, which, however, cannot be gotten
hold of just at present; that the worst
men known to the Honolulu police
are not adventures; that more than
half of Hilo was drunk on the first
instant; that the political meeting held
at the Kaumakapili Church the other
night made the National ~ candidate:
look blue; that the new addition to the
Honolulu Library, under the will Of
Queen Emma, is,a fully appreciated
public benefit; that the latest memo
randum made in the Government diary
is, ''lost three points since the first o.
January" that the PRESS compositors
saved Fort street from lively blaze
night before last; that the men who
clean the streets neglect their duty to
get necessary sleep, it is alleged; that
the most bitter criticism heard upon
the drama night before last was, that
the fellow who painted ''the scene-cur-
tain forgot to paint oars in the boat
that the most obstinate man in the
Kingdom is the one who refuses to run fol
office; that the local dramatic club con
templates giving the public treat
during the month of February; that the
defense of the Government leaders dis
plays both sorrow and repentance; thai
the new political party has virtually
consolidated with the Opposition; anc
that the next social event will take al

body's chickens, and nobody wants
them; but it seems that the Cabinet
wire-pullers and a section of the plant
ing interest are agreed that such mate
rial may, by the cohesion of several of
them, effect a breach in the indie

best piece of election engineering that

purchasable.
The collection of tax papers is said

In answer to his own questions, what
are the chief qualifications for repre-
sentative ? he replied: ''first, a good
Constitution S(thumping his breast);
second, man who is not afraid" And
of such material is this rising genera
ton of Hawaiian lawyers and publicans
to come. c.
