Fashion.

We cannot grieve over the news from the
gay capital Of Austria that the fair Wen
nese are in revolt against the tyranny OF
Ia mode de Paris and propose to set up fash
ions that suit themselves. We are rather
pleased with the fact. 1t may give q hint
to the fair New Workers. who groan under
the tyranny OF That same mode. which often
makes displays OF itself that are offensive
to the artistic sense and obnoxious to the
genius OF w~omanhood. Let us hope that
our fair New Workers will hereafter keen
an eye on Vienna as well as on Paris:
though we must say that we think 1t would
be still better for them to make suggestions
on their W account. without giving heed
to the fashions OF any foreign town. We do
not mean suggestions In the line Of that
Chautauqua-Chicago-B Boston form OF insan-
ity known as dress reform" Oh, no.. We
mean suggestions In the line OF superior
styles. under the abiding formulas OF art.
and in the best American taste. But we
feel that here we must leave this subject:
we arc sure that our fair New Workers
know how to handle 1t.
In respect TO fashions. Paris has domi-
neered civilization for ages. certainly since
the time OF LOUIS XIV. II not since that Of
LOUIS XI. London has strlven to initiate
her French rival. and the result has often
been laughable. Berlin detests Paris. yet
Paris is regnant in the fashionable circles
Of Berlin. Rome has long labored to scrape
up an intimacy with Ia mode OF Paris. The
proud city of Vienna has walked in tho
wake Of Paris. under protest. st. Peters,
burg gets her fashion plates from
Paris. in SO far as the censor will permit
them to cross the frontier. In short. from
Madrid to Copenhagen. Paris rules the
roast or roost. The fair South Americans.

FOREWARNED.

The recent action of the Board of
Health, in establishing a rigid quar-
antine against the introduction of
cholera from the United States, was
generally acquiesced in by residents.
Although the Inconvenience caused
by the delay in delivering mails and
freight, as well as the personal hard
ship involved in the detention of
passengers, was considerable, the
safety of the community was regard
ed as paramount to all other con-
siderations. Notwithstanding that
a good deal of railing has at differ
ent times been heard from both resi-
dents and strangers regarding quar-
antine at Honolulu, all the evidence
seems to be that the quarantine ar
rangements here compare favorably
with the average if not the best to
be met with anywhere. Quarantine,
however, forms only small part of
the duty OF the authorities in keep
ing out calamitous epidemics.
1t is very doubtful if quarantine
will always avail to keep out cholera,
This fell disease is said to follow in
the track of influenza, and its ap-
pearance may be just as unheralded.
Its germs may be waited to us on
the breeze or foated to us on the
ocean. Certainly, quarantine will
not avail much once an epidemic
gets past the embargo. Cholera is
said to be Natures great Health In
spector. 1t seeks with unerring pre-
cision the unclean corners of the
populous habitations of mankind.
The best preventive of its gaining a
lodgment is cleanliness. With good

sanitary conditions the work of
driving the pestilence out of any
community it has entered is not
likely to be formidable. Even in
Hamburg, where the city was taken
by surprise, the disease was stamped
out, sooner than might have been
expected, after it had taken a fearful
hold, by the energy of the authorities
in measures of comprehensive dis
trict sanitation and an energetic
hospital service.
Hamburg lost nine thousand of its
inhabitants by the scourge before it
was abated. 1t might perhaps not
have lost a hundred if it was not
caught mapping with filthy quarters.
It's case should be taken as warn
ing by all cities. Leaving sanitation
measures to be adopted only when
Pestilence flaps her sombre wings
over the place is risking the lives of
hundreds where the devastation
might by forehanded action be
limited to units if not wholly pre-
vented. When cholera lately
threatened the United States, caus-
ing alarm for its appearance in these
islands, besides the quarantine ar
rangements previously mentioned
there was instituted a house to
house visitation by health officers,
with view to having enforced a
general cleansing of the whole city.
This effort at sanitation does not
appear to have had any appreciable
result. The filthier parts of the
city are as filthy as ever, if the
senses of anybody going along GER
tain streets and lanes are to be be-
lieved.
1t is the opinion of the sanitary
authorities of Europe and America
that there is strong liability of the
reappearance of cholera on both
sides of the ocean, in the coming
spring or summer. OF course the
Hawaiian authorities will at the first
intimation of danger proclaim quar-
antine again. But the more valua-
BILE precautions of sanitation should
not be left till visitation of the
scourge threatens. Measures should
be set on foot now for cleansing the
city and keeping it in strictly good
sanitary condition. There is SC
much to do, and the conditions are
f so crude, that it would take the
health broom all the intervening
, time from now till next heated tern

sanitary measures adopted, but
