CORRESPONDENCE.

correspondents.

MR. EDITOR Nine weeks ago last
Friday night I arrived in Honolulu on
the w. Il. Dimond. On the voyage l
had received injuries in the shoulder and
back from the kicks of horses, and was
taken to the Hospital as soon as the
vessel arrived. The doctor examined
my arm, and said there was nothing
broken. He ordered ice put on the back
and shoulder, and this treatment was
kept up two weeks until the swelling
went down. A few days later he ex-
amined the arm and shoulder and said
nothing was broken or out of place.
The cords OF the arm were bruised, and
would take some time to get right. He
ordered liniment applied three times
daily, after that he tried electricity.
Sometime after he said: +" Davies, YOU
must use that arm; you must get men
to exercise it, or you will lose the use of
It." This was done for a week. It
was very painful, and made the arm
swell again. Then the doctor said
it must be rested for a while and not
used. When the swelling went down
the doctor ordered me to 90 out and pull
on bar. Then he told me to lay the
fingers of the we'll hand across the palm
OF the other and then close my hand on
the fingers. l next spoke to the doctor
and said, doctor, there's something
wrong in my shoulder" The second time
l told him, he said 1 Imagined that. Last
week, Monday, called his attention to
the swelling of the hand. He said that
was weakness, and must rest it. Last
Saturday he asked how the arm was,
and / replied "the same as usual;
"Oh," he SAID, in another week
you'll be able to go to the plantation.
l pointed to my shoulder and said " Oh +!
doctor, there's something wrong here"
He felt of my shoulder and it hurt, and
| said, Doctor. that's too sore" He
said, THAT shoulders as good as the
other"
The same day 1 left the hospital and
went to another physician. He felt of
my shoulder, and said it was badly dis.
located. was fifty-fve minutes on the
operating table under the influence of
ether, while he and another doctor set
my arm.
Now, Mr.. Editor, the hospital is a
public institution, and 1 think it only
air that the public should know these
acts, and l think they ought to be in
7estigated. EDWIN POWELL DAVIES.

TIE statement made by patient of the
Queens Hospital, of his experiences and
treatment while in that institution, will
attract the attention of our readers. The
good name which this institution has en-
joyed for many years, and which has at.
tracted to it patients from every nation
atty on our shores, is too precious to be
furnished without sufficient cause. If
the statement made by Mr.. Davies is q
truthful narrative of facts, as experienced
by him, it should be at once thoroughly
investigated by the trustees of the insti-
tuition. If it be false or in any way ex.
sggerated, it should be met with a
prompt Genial by the proper authority.

UNITED STATES WATER FILTER.
1t is hardly necessary 10 direct the
attention of the public to the fact that
pure water is one of the principal agents
in preserving health and insuring per-
feet comfort in a household. The germ
OF our most malignant diseases can be
traced back to impure water.
The filter works easily, and, like
magic, turns the impurest water into a
perfectly colorless and absolutely pure
liquid.
This apparatus is attached to the or
binary water-pipe and filters RAPIDLY. II

CURRENT POLITICAL NOTES.

Whatever the sentiments of Mr..
Reed may be the rest of the country is
profoundly thankful that the next
house of representatives will be a de-
Lucrative body.-Albany Argus.
We have had fiftyone congresses,
but in only thirteen has the speaker
had to depend on strict party vote for
the honor of vote of thanks. Reed
makes the misunderstanding Reg
ister
"A billion of the peoples dollars
appropriated by spendthrift congress-.
How much of this bread cast upon the
political waters will return to the G. o.
p's campaign fund in 1S92?-Chicago
Times.
The president is said to be max
ing an effort to strengthen himself in
Indiana. 1t is always an unfortunate
indication when a politician or any
other man is driven to the necessity of
strengthening himself at home rather
than with strangers.-Detroit Free
Press.
THE theory of the reciprocity
clause in the Mckinley law seems to be
that the doctrine of protection is per-
fectly just when applied by the United
States against other countries, but I'M
reasonable and very much to be re-
scented when applied by other coun-
tries to the United States.-N. Y.
World
The principal blunders of the Re-
publicans consisted in the pressing of
the election measure and the passage
Of the Mckinley bill in the shape in
which it appears on our statute books
For both these transgressions the party
was adequately punished at the polls
last Novem ber.-St. Louis Globe-Dem-
ocrat. (Rep.)
Among the things Senator Quay
neglected to deny was that he helped
to bribe Voice employee to steal
THE Voice mailing-list. AS his COM
mittee only paid two hundred and fifty
dollars for it, and as he had several
much larger steals to deny, he doubt
less thought this was of minor impor-
tance.-The Voice.
The republicans have certainly
done one thing well. They wiped out
the surplus with exceeding neatness
and dispatch. A few years ago there
was alarm over the amount of money
accommodating in the treasury. There is
no necessity for such fears now. 1t
will be many long day before there
will be another surplus. When they
got rid of it they also took care that we
should not see it's like soon. 1t has
gone to come no more for years.-Lou-

RELIEF FOR IRELAND.

A Liberal Credit Voted by the British,
Parliament for the Relief of the Distress
in Ireland, at the Request of Secretary
Balfour.
LONDON, March 13.-In the house of
commons yesterday Secretary Balfour
asked credit of ESQ, S31 for the relief of
distress in Ireland. Every possible
means had been taken, he said, to eX-
pedite relief works, which would other
wise not have been begun before April
or May. Eight thousand persons had
been employed and there were about
&c, 900 to be relieved. He never allowed
a statement of actual starvation to go
without immediate special inquiry and
relief if found true, although many
cases of fraud had come to light.
There was no starvation on
the mainland but great risk of it in the
western islands Wherever a reliable
list of deserving and destitute families
could be obtained, employment was
given on the relief works, at the rate
of seven shillings per week in money.
Where such list could not be obtained,
the pay was given in supplies, a stone
of meal, valued at eleven pence, being
given daily. This had caused dimi-
mutton in the demand for relief. The
present roll of weekly wages amounted
to e3, 900. On February IS the mum Der
employed was 1897, and G21, 159 had
been paid in wages.
Messrs. John Morley and Thos. Rus
sell spoke in support of the credit, which

PARNELl IN SECLUSiON

He is Supposed to Have Withdrawn from
Public Gaze for the Purpose of Prepar-
ing His Promised Manifesto.
LONDON, March 13.-Mr. Parnen is
making a good deal of mystery over
the manifesto which he promises to is
sue to the world, giving reasons for his
course in Irish affairs. 1t is said that
he wishes to secure the publication of
the manifesto in America about the
same time as the arrival of the deputa-
ton which he has sent to that country.
Parnell has had one of his old time dis
appearances from public view. Form
erly the public used to connect these
disappearances with Mrs. O'Shea, and
when an Irish member Of parliament
wanted to find Parnel he usually
sought out Mrs. O'Shea and obtained
her intercession for the privilege of an
interview. There is no presumption of
that kind now. Private Secretary
Campbell has disappeared as well as
his master, and they are both undoubt-
eddy engaged on the manifesto. The
reporters who called at Parnell's house
Yesterday were met with the infOrma-
ton that he was not there and that no
information could be given as to his
wherea bouts.

HERR WINDIHORST.

The Condition of the Catholic Leader In
Germany and the Probable Effect His
Death Would Have on the Relations of
Germany with the Vatican-PapaI In
quiries in His Behalf.
LONDON. March 13.-Berlin dispatches
state that the pope has telegraphed in
quiry as to the health of Herr Wind
thorst. The condition of the Catholic
leader and the probable effect of his
death, should his illness prove fatal, of
which, in view of his advanced age Che
being in his 10Th year,, there is great
apprehension, eXcites much discussion.
The kaiser, Notwithstanding Herr
Windthorst's opposition to his naval
projects. is deeply concerned. The
kaiser has prided himself on win
ming over to the imperial cause Herr
Windthorst and his followers and has
conceived what appears and is believed
to be, sincere attachment for the vet
eran champion of the Roman church.
In all the negotiations for the resump-
ton of entirely cordial relations be-
tween Prussia and the papacy, Herr
Windthorst has been principally con-
suited. and it was largely due to his in
huence that the government at length
declared its readiness to promote
measure for the restoration to the
church of the accumulated Stipends
withheld under the Fall1 laws. There
is no man of prominence or influence IN
the Catholic party to take his place, and
this fact makes all the greater cause
for anxiety.
The surviving members of the de-
posed house of Hanover, to whom Wind
thorst has always been devoted, both
before and since the absorption of that
kingdom by Prussia, has sent repeated
inquiries as to his condition, and the
aged Queen Marie, of that family, who
was rescued from poverty through the
intercession of Windthorst with the
Prussian government, has forwarded
her deepest coincidence.

THE REED CONGRESS.
Reckless Extravaganza and Lawlessnes
Under the Late CIR Reed.

Reckless Extravaganza and LawleSSneSS
Under the Late Gar Reed.
The adjournment of congress was
greeted with cheers by the largest COM
mercial body in the United States-a
sort of compliment never extended, so
far as we now recall, to any other con-
gress since the foundation of the gov
eminent. This expression of relief will
find an echo in all parts of the country.
No congress in our time has done so
much to fill the minds of the CONNER
cial community with fear and appre-
hension. Yet the things actually done
by the Fifty-frst congress were not SO
bad as the things that the public feared
it might do. The cheering had refer
ence to the latter category altogether.
Bad tariff bills and bad silver bills have
been passed heretofore, and extrava-
giant appropriations have been made,
although in these particulars the Fifty
first congress has outdone all it's prede-
cessors. But the rejoicing of the COM
mercial public is over the fact that this
congress had not passed the free-coin-
age bill or the force bill. These were
the measures over which the fiereest
battles had been fought, and around
which public interest and public appre-
tensions chiefly conferred. When it was
known that the hour Of noon had come,
and that neither of these measures had
been passed, the tension was suddenly
relaxed, and the feeling of relief was
well nigh universal, and was not
bounded by party lines.
What the Fifty-frst congress has done
can be stated in few words:
1t has passed the most reckless and
indefensible pension bill ever put on
the statute book, together with private
pension bills by hundreds, and has
thereby put in train probable deficit
in the treasury during the coming year.
Such deficit can be met only by is
suing bonds or imposing new taxes.
1t has passed the most reckless and
indefensible tariff bill ever known in
