hon. member at the expenditure for
foreign missions, he could inform
him that the United States Govern
ment had recommended Hawaii TO
give the aid of her counsel to the
Kingdom of Samoa and also TO her
other Pacific neighbors. There was
no attempt to deceive the Assembly
in the manner characterized as i'm
proper by the hon. member, in maxi
ing up the Appropriation Bill. The
expenditures put in were such as it
was estimated the ordinary revenue
of the country would meet. Extra
ordinary internal improvements
should properly come from loans,
and he had little fear that if the
house pass the loan act introduced
by him, there would be money forth
coming for those necessary works.
Rep. Kaunamano moved the com
mittee recommend the reference of
the item to select committee of
five.
Rep. Castle thought the discus
sion illustrated pretty well the
necessity for the Committee on Pub
lie Lands and Internal Improve
ments doing its work. A while ago
they brought in report, recon-
mending twenty or thirty petitions
to be laid on the table for consider
alton with the Appropriation Bill.
If that committee had done its work
properly the house would have some
information before it on these mat
ters to-day.
Rep. Kaai believed these things
should be settled by the committee
of the whole. There were so many
committees now that nearly every
member was on several.
Rep. Aholo was in favor of re-
ference to n committee, rs the mem
bers knew nothing about the require,
ments. The member for Hilp had
no idea what it would cost either 10
roof the llilo roads with corrugated
iron or to pave them with stone. Ii
was a mere guess with him that
$500 would be required for hi;
roads.
The motion to refer passed.
Minister Dare moved the commit.
tee rise, which carried, and the
committees report, as presented by
the chairman, was adopted by tho
Assembly.
Rep. Castle, on suspension of the
rules, gave notice of an act to
amend chap. %, laws of 1882, re
lating to Acknowledgements to instru
ments; also, Of an act relative tt
returns of officers on processes o:
court.
The President appointed rs th'
special committee on the item TO
Hilo roads, Reps. Kaunamano, IA
ulukou, kauhane and Castle, an,
Minister Gibson.
AT 1856 the house adjourned til
10 o'clock tomorrow.

SAVINGS BANK LAW AMENDMENT.

The Hon. Mr.. Kaulukou gave
notice yesterday of an act to amend
the law establishing Postal Savings
Bank, so rs to exempt deposits from
taxation. This amendment COM
mends itself to the reason and COM
mon sense of reflective people, and
is following precedents of other and
greater countries. The Postal Saw
ings Bank is for the benefit of the
poor, ,and every encouragement should
be given that class of people to
avail themselves Of the benefit.
The deposits on which interest is
payable are limited to 81 200 and
under. a rich man cannot therefore
place his surplus cash there as pro-
titable investment. No interest is
given on any amount exceeding
1000, and even on that amount
and below, five percent. only is
allowed. If deposits are taxable at
three-quarters of one percent, that
is reduction of the interest to four
and one-quarter percent. Not very
encouraging to poor people to use
the Savings Bank as care-taker of
their small savings. Besides, de-
posits in this bank, which is Gov
ernment institution, should he re-
garded as q Government loan. For
these and other reasons we consider
the proposed amendment u wise
measure.

FIFTY-EIGHTH DAY.

SATURDAY, July 10th.
The Assembly was opened at 10
A. NJ, with prayer by the Chaplain.
A quorum was obtained at 10:l5,
the following being present: Minis
tiers Gibson, Creighton and Dare:
Mobiles Cleghorn, kuihelani, Martin
and Kapena; Reps. Keau, Lilika-
lani, Baker. Kauhi, Amara, Kaulia,
Kaulukou, Pahia, Kaunamano, Ma
hale, Wight, Nahinu, Kauhane, Ke-
koa, Kalua, Kaukau, Richardson,
Kaai, Thurston, Paehnole and Palo-
hau. The minutes of last meeting
were read in both languages and
confirmed.
ADJOURNMENT.
Rep. kaulukou moved the house
adjourn till 10 O'Clock on Monday
morning. Owing to the call of two
foreign steamers this morning, IA
great deal of correspondence had to
be attended to, both by Ministers
and others. Adjournment would,
besides, give opportunity to COM
mittees to meet, and, on the whole,
promote the work of the session
more than sitting.
Minister Gibson desired to pre-
sent his supplementary statement OF
the Indebtedness of the Interior
Department. An advertisement had
been issued, calling for claims OF
whatever sort, and some of those
received might have to be disputed.
The aggregate amount of claims was
$50, 1919. He sympathized with
the motion to adjourn, as he in.
tended to have asked for an hour OF
two's leave of absence.
The house adjourned at abou
| 1926.

THE LEGISLAI I'URE.
FIFTY-SENENTH DAY..

FRIDAY, July 9TH.
The Assembly was opened with
prayer by the Chaplain at TO- A. NJ.
Present: Noble j. S. Walker, Pre-
sident; Minister Dare; Mobiles Kui-
helani, Martin and Kapena; Reps.
Keau, Baker, Amara, Brown, Kau-
liza, Kaunamano, Wight, Nahale,
kauhane, Aholo, kaukau, Richard
son, Castle, Dickey, Paehaole,
Kauai and Palohau. The following
arrived after the roll-call, making
quorum at 10:15: Reps. Nahinu,
Thurston, Pahia, Kaulukou, Hay
selden and Kauhi; Noble Kaae, and
Minister Gibson. The minutes of
previous days session were read
and confirmed.
COMMITTEES.
Minister Gibson reported, from
the Printing Committee, the act to
prevent collisions at sea ready for
distribution.
RESOLUTIONS.
Minister Dare presented resolu-
ton that thereafter the chairman of
the several committees send notice
in writing, to be read by the Clerk
of the Assembly, of meeting of his
committee, said notices to be read
each day prior to adjournment"
Rep. Thurston considered that,
as the committees usually had only
five members, the chairman could
notify each personally. The diff
Guilty was that so many members
were on several committees. This
resolution would have the effect of
clearing the chairman of responsible
lity.
Rep. Kalua thought the resolution
was good, but he would have il
amended that the chairman rise ir
his place to announce meeting Of
his committee.
Rep. Paehaole moved in amend
ment that notices of committee
meetings be posted up on the bull
letin board and the lobby doorway
by the chairmen.
Rep. Aholo stated the former
practice to have been personal noti
iications. Members might not pause
to inspect the bulletin board. HI
preferred, if Il choice was to b.
made, to have chairmen rise.
Remarks were made also by Reps
Amara and Kaunamano, after whicI
the amendment of Rep. Kalua wa
adopted.
Rep. Kaulukou gave notice of a
act to amend the law establishing
Postal Savings Bank, so as to ex
empt deposits from taxation.
Rep. Brown gave notice that to
morrow he would question the Min
lister of Foreign Affairs regardin
the admission of Chinese into tn
kingdom; also, the 46 Chiname
arrived yesterday and permitted t

UNFINISHED BUSINESS.

in Berlin with extraordinary violence. From here it again passed to England, thence to France where it was especially severe. in June 49 from TOO to 900 died daily in Paris, some 10000 in all falling victims to the disease. In November ls48 it appeared again in New Orleans but did not penetrate to the north.
 This second epidemic passed almost without interruption into the third which appeared in Persia in 1850, in '5l and 52 it produced very great distruc- tion in this part of Asia. During the latter year it extended to St Petersburg and Moscow again In 1853 Berlin and Hamburg were again attacked, thence it passed as before to England and later to France, the latter suffering severely in j4 and 55. In 53 and 54 it reached the United States but the epidemic was not so widely spread nor so fatal as in 1882.
 This time it reached South America and ragged with great severity in Brazil,
 Since this time there has been no reg ular world-spread epidemic The dis ease has ragged at different times in sev- eral places, as in Switzerland in 1867. and during the German Austrian war of 1866 at which time nearly as many sol diers were killed by cholera as by bat tie
 of its later appearance in Egypt Italy and Spain during the past two years, our daily papers have given full account.

 A BAD SUBJECT.
By Frank Williams,

When Thurston was performing his great ieats of mesmerism in New York city, he called for subjects one night as usual, when the famous little ball player, Charlie Miller, stepped upon the stage to be mesmerized Millerand Thurston were warm friends and Thurston did not wish to mesmerize him, SO he hurriedly left the stage and going to the propertyroom, he secured pair of false ears, with which he re- turned to the wings of the stage, and at- tracting the attention of Miller to him. self, he motioned for Miller to come to him, which Miller did Then handing him the ears, with the remark to slip them on over his ears in some manner unohserved by the audience There were several would-be subjects on the but two with Miller, saying these two were sufficient Thurston then com menced to work on Miller. apparently having him under his control He made Miller follow him all around the stage by simply pointing his finger at him. Thurston then pointed to n chair and Miller sat down. He next took knife and stuck it through Mller's ear with out Miller feeling it. Thurston then turned to the audience to say that he would make Miller eat tallow candles while he was under the impression that he was eating candy. While Thurston had his back to Miller, Miller took off the ears and shook them at the audi ence, whereupon the audience roared with laughter Thurston thought they were laughing at his remarks, and bow ing to them, he made few passes be- fore Millers eyes. Then giving him the candle, he said; candy and Miller commenced to nibble but as quick as Thurston had his back turned he threw the candle out to the audience, who again roared with laughter, upon finding that if really was candy Thurston then advanced to the footlights, saying: " l will now conclude my performance by making the subject as stiff and hard as d bar of iron, and leave him in any po- sition I choose He then placed two chairs about four and half feet apart, and turning to Miller he made few mesmeric passes before his face telling him in an undertone to stiffen his knees. Then lifting Miller from where he was sitting, he placed Millers neck on the back of one chair and his feet on the back of another, and turning to the al- dience, he said: The subject is now a bar of iron. and will conclude my per formance by sitting on him" and as he was about to sit on Miller, Miller quietly threw his feet in the air, stand ing on one chair on his hands, and Thurston had hardly sat on the floor when Miller sat on him, remarking: You don't sit on this subject worth cent The audience roared and loudly applauded Miller, who bowed and withdrew behind the scenes

hundred hours Sometimes, like other
articles of human manufacture, they
fall short of expectations. The COM
betitive trial recently made at the
Franklin Institute of the lamps of yari-
Gus companies furnished several Woe
full examples Of this truth. A we'll
made lamp will last that length of time,
however. If by bad workmanship air
is allowed to leak in, the carbon burns
out quickly. If it is run at too high a
tension-that is, if too much current is
sent through it, the friction wears out
the little horseshoe in a short time and
it breaks. It is the necessity for prac-
ticaIly absolute vacuum that requires
the employment of the platinum con-
meeting wires. Platinum is the only
metal which expands and contracts
with heat at the same rate as glass.
This keeps the joint, where the wires
pass through the glass, always tight
so that no air can enter. There is a
fortune in store for the inventor who
can get up some kind Of cement that
will prevent the passage Of air, and at
the same time admit the use of cheap
copper instead of costly platinum
wires The problem may be capable of
solution, for this whole matter of cleo
tic lighting is still in its infancy,
though not most vigorous stage Of in
fancy.-N. y Tribune.

The Peppermint King.

Hiram G. Hotchkiss, of Lyons, Wayne
County, is the peppermint king Of the
world, and his name has been for many
years kept standing in the chief market
journals of all lands. He is seventy
five years old, and native of Oneida
County. About 1887 he began buying
peppermint oil of the farmers about
Lyons, and in 1871 he abandoned gem
eral store in Phelps. Ontario County,
which he had been Keeping, and thence
forth devoted himself wholly to the
peppermint oil business. There are
two or three other dealers in Wayne
County, which cont lis the market in
this speciality, but M. Hotchkiss han
dies the bulk of the crop. The mint
acreage of the county is about 1000
acres, and the total product last year
was worth about $4,000 But it was
bad season; in fairly good one the
crop is worth $780, 900, which figure
may perhaps be put down as the ex-
penso to the world of the collie. -Bstfalo
