:. Anglican Church ChronIcIe."

This monthly publication for January
is out, and contains the usual local and
foreign church news also continuance
of ''Our Pilgrimage" Among the bap-
tisms we find the following names given
to child: Louisa Keohiokalani Kani-
niu Kameanui Wahinepiilanf Hart"
This is ridiculous. What better will the
child be with such an array of names.
How tired the clergyman must have
been before he got to the end of such a
list.
The Anglican" suggests that a hos
pital should be erected for the reception
of inebriates who are neither wholly
criminal nor insane. There certainly is
need of such a place for there are
among US several persons of this kind
who at times ought to be placed in such
an institution and not sent on the reef.
Those young gentlemen who go out
shooting on a Sunday instead of attend
ing church will find advice in an article
on Church Worship

The AIm an.

Early Saturday morning rumor was
around town that the steamer Kinau was
on the reef, but where, was not known.
AS no vessel had arrived from Hawaii,
and the Kinau did not touch Maui till
Saturday night, it was impossible for
anything to have been heard of the YES
sci. Some people, however, believed
there was truth in the rumor, and all
day long the employees of the Wilder
Steamship Company had nothing else to
do but answer inquiries through the tele-
phone and otherwise, much to their an
noyance. The Kinau arrived early Sun
day morning from her Volcano trip with
large number of passengers and nearly
5000 bags of sugar. Nothing unusual
happened during the voyage. The per-
son who started this idle rumor ought to
be most severely punished, and it is to
be hoped that he will be caught. It
caused considerable anxiety among
those who were expecting friends from
the other islands, and it was also known
that large number of school children
were on board.

full business in the heart of city ought
to be publicly horsewhipped. No pun
ishment is bad enough for such beast.
One would think this man would be SO
SO ashamed of himself that he would
quit the country by the very first oppor-
tunity. It is, as our contemporary says,
disgrace to the police administration
that such a vile resort has been allowed
to exist on one of our principal streets.
But with such law and Indifferent
Marshal, what can be expected? The
Marshal has signally failed to do his
duty. Of That there is no doubt, and he
cannot deny it. Why has he done so?
Well, We cannot say. without he is in
terested in the matter and does not in
tend to take any action. If Marshal
Kaulukou had done his duty there is no
doubt this man would at the present
time have been on the reef, the proper
place for such character. Once more
we urge on the Marshal to shut up this
place and others similar to it, and there
by show that he means to do'his duty.
We will give the Marshal pointer
and hope he will follow it up. This man
sent $50 to San Francisco to pay the
passages of two girls to 'assist in his
restaurant" Only one came, and that
was by the Alameda. It is possible that
the other one may be on the steamer to-
morrow Would it not be as well for the
Marshal to be on the look out?
It has come to our knowledge that a
certain young man (whose name we
know has been offered $50 to find out the
source of the ADVERTISERS information.
There are so many sources that this
young man has hard task set before
him. Another fellow with an unenviable
reputation is acting as spy, most de-
testable business to be engaged in. If he
continues in it he will get his name in
public print. 1t would not cause any
surprise.

THE ADVERTISERS ACTION ENDORSED
ON EVERY SIDE.

In Saturdays issue of the Gazette"
We were pleased to notice credit was
given to us for our course in7regard to
showing up the man who is engaged in
importing girls for immoral purposes,
and also the proprietor of disorderly
house. We can assure our contemporary
that we do not intend to let up in this
matter until this vile wretch gives up his
infamous business, or leaves the country
or is safely landed on the reef. With re-
gard to the name of his den on King
street, we were not aware it was called
the poodle Dog" until the Gazette"
80 stated in it's issue of Friday In fact,
up to the present moment we are not
aware of it's exact locality. The stand
our contemporary has taken in this mat
ter is very gratifying. 1t may rest as
sured of one fact, that this entire COM
munity is at our backs. Every day we
come into the possession of new evidence
against this man, and if the Marshal
does not soon take action in the matter
the public will. Any white man who
will engage in such filthy and disgrace

Vaccination.

Recently our port has been visited by
three vessels, each of which had cases
of smallpox on board. The disease is
prevalent at the present time in San
Fraecisco. It behooves the Board of
Health to be careful in the matter when
vessels arrive here from that port. The
President of the Board informs us that
Or. Wood will be at the Government
Dispensary, Fowler's yard, every day,
except Sunday, between the hours of 10
a. m. and II M, for the purpose of vac
cinating free of charge all persons who
present themselves.

MONDAY
+" HIGHWAYMEN. T"

From a reliable source it is learned
that one evening last week while a we'll
known resident OF Punahou was driving
home, his horse was stopped by two
young men with blackened faces. After
little struggle the two "'highwaymen"
took to their heels, but one was caught
Immediately afterwards and recognized.
The matter has been hushed up, but it
appears to us an investigation should be
held, for this is rather a serious
matter. 1t will not be safe for people to
go out at night if it is known that they
are likely to be attacked in this way.

A Railroad Innovation.

Frequent ment on has been made recently
that the Pennsylvania company was testing
an appliance, consisting of a system of air
tubes. to replace bell-cords for signaling on
passenger trains. The test has been salts
factory, and the new system will be adopted
generally on the Pennsylvania lines. Rub
Der tubes run under each car, which are
connected after the manner of the air-brake
tubes. They are charged at fifteen pounds
pressure with air from reservoir under the
cab of the engine, which is in turn supplied
with an air brake reservoir. A whistle valve
is attached to the end of the tube in the en-
CINE cab. The conductor, by pulling cord
in the car, opens a valve in the rubber tube,
and allows the air to escape. This relieves
the pressure on the whistle valve, throws
it open, and causes the whistle to sound So
long as the cord is held the whistle will
sound

"Yes, I've spent good deal of time
under water said Mr.. Peter Il. Sculley,
OF the contracting firm OF Hopkins &
Sculley, that has so successfully built
the Omaha and Council Bluffs bridge.
"For sixteen years Inever earned dol
lar on top of it, but turned over good
many at the bottom.
SHOW did | start into the business
Well, it was away back in '53. My
father was stone cutter, and | learned
the business. He wasn't paying me go
ing wages, however, and l ran away
from home. ! struck job at my trade
when they were building bridge
across the Schuykill for the Reading
road, and in those days they sank stone
pillars at the bottom as foundation for
the piers. Somehow they got them too
long, and they had to be cut down. We
had diver, but he didn't know any
thing about stone cutting, and l was
young and volunteered to go down and
do it. / got through it all right, and
they paid me 80 day. No more stone
cutting for me then.
Iquit, and | have been in the diving
business more or less ever since. What
do they pay diver? Oh, all kinds of
prices. I'm paying one man 50 500
year, whether he works or plays. Good,
all-round divers get from $500 to $500
per month when they're working, but
only know of four in America worth
that. Sometimes they get heavy pay
for risky job. | once got 81 900 for
three hours work.

st. Louis bridge, and l was working up
the stream for $400 month. The su-
perintendent came up and offered me a

getting he said he could get all the
divers he wanted for 1925 n month, and
that settled the deal. BY and by the
river began to raise, and his men
couldn't stand it, and came up without
being able to close the gate in the
caisson. He sent for me and managed
to do it and saved the pier. Then
sent in my bill for 81 900, and after
grumbling day or two he paid it. 1t
