GRAND JURY REPORT.
A New Jail Strongly Recommended
Judge Severance Also Urges 1t.

The grand jury completed it's labors
at about ten o'clock Saturday, AND
presented two more indictments
making eleven in all, and the follow.
ing report:
The grand jury would respectfully
report that they have examined the
court house, county Jail and poor farm
and find everything in order
except as herein stated. The radia-
tors in the grand jury room are out OF
repair and it is Impractical to make
the room comfortable in cold weather,
and would recommend that they be
put in order before the room is again
used in cold weather; and would also
recommend that the storm doors at
the front entrance Of the building be
repaired and glass put into the doors
Immediately.
We found the jail neat and clean and
everything in proper order, SO far as it
is practicable to keep such an old and
dilapidated building in. The jail is
so constructed that the male and fe-
male prisoners cannot be kept sepa-
rate and apart from each other. as they
should be, there being nothing but an
open iron bar PARTITION between them,
and they can converse freely with each
other.
We believe the time has come when
a new Jail should be built, and that
the old one should be torn down and
no longer disgrace the beautiful court
house the county has built, and we
would recommend that the county
commissioners proceed at once to build
a proper jail upon the grounds pur-
chased for this purpose.
We found fourteen inmates at the
poor house, and they are all well cared
for and the house and farm well
taken care of. There is great need OF
a corn house and hog house, and we
recommend that the same be built as
soon as convenient, and would recon-
mend that the poor house should be
furnished with mattresses and other
furniture that is very much needed.
O. o. PITCHER,
Foreman of Grand Jury.
L. III. GREGG, Clerk.
Dated Dec. 10th, 1892.
Judge Severance seconded the rec
Ommendation for a new jail, and said
that the Board CT Corrections and
Charities had had some correspond
ence with him upon the subject and
would soon condemn the old building
anyway. 1t would then become neces-
sary to erect a new building in any
case.
In discharging the jury, Judge Sew
erance plimented it upon it's dis
patch in transacting business.

SHAME {!

The Advertiser goes out of its
way to fagrantly insult the Queen,
when it says, in referring to pros
pective resolution of want of conf
dence, shat, at the outside, the
Palace gang cannot command more
than eighteen votes, and, as it re-
a>.i-oe t--e..ty f~e 90 put Ill the
Doodle crowd, this simple example
in arithmetic will prove their
strength" 1t makes the offense
worse that the managing owner of
the Advertiser is member of Her
Majesty's Privy Council, and in that
capacity at least might check the
inordinate disposition of his paper
to sneer at royalty in general anC
the Hawaiian throne in particular.
In the present instance the slur is
wholly wanton. The Advertiser
cannot produce particle of evidence
that the Queen or anybody con
nected with the Court is intriguing
for the overthrow of the Ministry.
Neither is there any justification in
fact for the use of the term, "Palace
gang" to describe any active ele-
ment at work in the politics of the
present. 1t is an incongruous spect-
acle, but perhaps not unexpected
from that quarter, that of the Adver-
tiser's descending to such a depth
of political rancor in the next issue
succeeding that on which truce
was declared to party feeling out of
respect for the associations of Christ

Dear Friends:-If not already members
OF the Congregation of the Central Union
Church of Honolulu," you are hereby most
cordially invited to become attendants
upon its services. Its new house of wor-
ship has been built for the people, and
dedicated to the service of God in the in
terest of our common humanity. "Whoso-
ever will, let him come"
On Thursday, December 30, at 7:30 P. NJ,
the sittings in the Church will be offered
to the free choice of the people. Any seat
you may choose will be assigned to you for
your use, subject only to the possible limi-
tation OF the same seats being chosen by
two or more persons; in which case every
effort will be made to adjust the matter
amicably between them.
The seats are not to be rented They are
simply to be assigned to households, or
single sittings to individuals, for their
regular use. No price is put upon any
seat. No pledge Is required of any fixed
sum from any occupant. Only one condi-
ton is made, namely, that every holder of
pew, or OF sitting, shall make some con-
tribution each month to the treasury of
the Board of Trustees, for the current ex-
penses of the Society. What each ones
contribution shall be is left entirely to his
own sense of duty; "every one as he pur-
poseth in his heart" and "every one ac-
cording to his several ability" These con-
trbutions may be handed to the Treasurer
ten by any one, the Treasurer will call at
the close of the month and receive the
waiting offering.
The object Of this plan, which is on trial
for six months, and to be continued or
changed as may be found wise, is to make
the house of God equally accessible to all
classes, and at the same time to make pro-
vision for the current expenses of the So
cety, by the free will offerings of the peo-
pie.
In the name of the Master, and on behalf
of the Church, we most cordially invite
| you to join with us in the worship of our
common Lord and Saviour.
Very sincerely yours,
