Japan is not thoroughly Christianized, but it is said that in that country doctor never thinks of asking poor patients for a fee. A proverb among the medicalfrster- nifty of Japan runs: "When the twin ene- mics, poverty and disease, invade home, he who takes aught from that home, even though 1t be given to him, is robber." When standing within few yards of the muzzle of gun at the time of its discharge person would be astonished could he see the shot go whizzing by. Experiments in instantaneous photography prove that the shot not only spread out oomet-like as they fly, but they string out one behind the other, to a much greater dissancs than they spread. Thus, with a cylinder gun, when the shot of charge reaches target that is forty yards away, the last shot is tagging full ten yards behind. Even a choke bore gun shot will lsg behind eight yardi in forty.
 A series of experiments has demon strated the relations between red flannel monkeys, beer and rheumatism.

Mr.. EDITOR: "Veritas Prevale-
bit" in Bulletin says that the natives
are now at the present time willing
to trust large share of the govern
ing of their country into the hands
of upright, square-dealing white
men, etc.
Recent history, however, proves
that this is not the case, for had
such been their desire their repre-
sentatives in the last Legislature
would not have voted almost unani-
mously to overthrow the Jones'
Wilcox Cabinet.
The writer in the Bulletin clearly
shows the class and stripe of
citizens that he belongs to by de-
claring that all who were in favor
of the Reform movement in 1887
were robbers, etc. and had [
known tbs when | read his first
letter I would not have been sur
prised at his pretended cry of jus
tice to the natives"

A LOAN.

The Loan Act passed by the Pro-
visional Government appears in
our columns this morning. 1t
simply carries out the provisions of
the law which was enacted by the
late Legislature. Some of the ex-
penditures to be covered by the
loan had already been incurred,
while others were of nature which
admitted Of no delay. The expense
of dredging the Honolulu harbor
is an illustration of the first kind.
The item for this purpose was orig
inally in the first section of the
bill but was afterward transferred
to the second section. The pro.
posed improvements to the Homo
lulu Water Works, are another
matter on which work should be be-
gun with all convenient speed.
The negotiation of this loan is a
matter which the people have very
much at heart, as it is to be ex-
pended exclusively for needed pub
lie improvements, and it is proba-
BILE that the Government will have
no difficulty in placing its bonds.

FOOTBALL.

The football game of last Satur-
day drew large and very enthusi-
astic audience. A short life has
been predicted to this somewhat
arduous sport in Honolulu, but
there is certainly no present sign
of any decline in it's vigor. One
sees where the good stuff comes
from which made the boys from
Punahou such good patrolmen, and
the qualities of manliness and
pluck which football nourishes fit
boys to be men when they step
upon the larger stage of life.
No doubt there are objections to
football, and outsiders sometimes
question whether the game is not,
on the whole, too rough and too dan
gerous to be cordially approved. At
the same time there is no reason
why a football player need not be a
gentleman. The strongest men are
frequently the most gentle, and we
do not believe that football players
compare unfavorably in this regard
with other classes. Manly sports
are a school Of many virtues. They
cultivate pluck and self-reliance,
and furnish to moral courage that
physical basis, which after all it
must have, if it is to meet the
emergencies of life with the readi-
ness, the initiative, the presence of
mind which are indispensable in
times of trial.
Great credit is due Mr.. Wood for
importing the game and bringinghis
team to such pitch of proficiency.
1t is to be hoped that the fine young
fellows who acquitted themselves so
well on Saturday will not let the
tradition of their proves die. 1t
should be kept alive by an annual
series OF victories for old Punahou.
To the town team also great credit
is due. The game cannot live I'M
less it is kept up at both ends, and
the healthy rivalry now existing
between "town and gown" furnishes
the atmosphere of generous emula-
ton, in which alone such sports
can flourish.

JUSTICE IN JAPAN.

A correspondent of the New York
Nation, writing from Toxic, makes
a very strong plea for the abolition
of the system of foreign Consular
Courts. That a necessity for these
originally existed is not denied,
but the writer, who is a careful
student of japanese institutions
and laws, claims that this neces-
sity has been long since outgrown.
The value of japanese culture
has been very variously estimated

WHAT X, NJ. DAGGETT SAYS
Lord Palmerston Once Pro-
nOunced for american An
nexafiOn.

neXafiOn.
Ex-Minister Rollin M. Daggett is
of the opinion that the British
government will not offer any very
strenuous opposition to the annexa-
ton of the Hawaiian Islands to
the United States. His reasons
for holding this view are the re-
suit of a friendly conversation
he had with the representative of
the British government at Honolulu
while he was the American Minis
at King Kalakaua's court. This
gentleman had grown gray in the
British consular service, and was
we'll versed with the traditions of
British diplomacy. He informed
Mr.. Daggett that he believed when
ever the time should arrive for the
Hawaiians to seek the protection
of some foreign power that the log
ical course of events would bring
them under the American flag.
In fact" remarked this gentle
man, cit is well understood in the
British Foreign Office that there is
to be no serious opposition to an
nexation to the United States.
When Lord Palmerston was Minis
ter of Foreign Affairs he advised
England's representative at Homo
lulu that the contiguity of Hawaii
to and its close commercial rela-
tons with the United States would
ultimately justify closer Ameri-
can connection"
From other remarks made by
Lord Palmerston his attitude on the
question was made quite clear. He
said that if the Hawaiian Islands
were located as near to the British
possessions as they were to the Pa
cific Coast, and if the British COM
mercial interests in Honolulu were
as extensive as those maintained by
the United States the British gov
eminent would pursue a policy hav-
ing for its end the bringing of the
Hawaiians under the English flag.
Palmerston, while in the British
Cabinet and when later its Premier,
was, perhaps, the most dangerous
and aggressive representative of
British foreign interests England
ever had.
Mr.. Daggett was very strongly
impressed by the the language and
manner of his informant, and ever
since he has been and still re-
mains of the opinion that England
will interpose no serious objection
to the annexation now proposed by
the Provisional Government of the
Hawaiian Islands.-S. F. Call.

by foreign observers. One thing
however is generally admit ed,
and that is, that the progress in
social, political and admins
trative reforms during the last
generation is something enor-
nous. Japan has been ex-
ceedingly hospitable to Western
methods and ideas, and her failure
has rather been that she has bor-
rowed too much rather than too
little from foreign sources that she
has swallowed more than she can
assimilate The disposition of the
Japanese to make use of whatever
is good in the civilization of other
countries is, under the circum-
stances, exceedingly remarkable,
and presents an example which
might be followed with profit by
many who would scorn il.
In defense of his plea in favor of
the abolition Of exterritorial juris-
diction, the writer in the Nation
states that Japan has laws equal
to the best in Europe, "the product
of concert between the best for
eign and native experts" which
have been twenty years in prepare
ton. AS to the intelligence and
efficiency with which these laws
are administered, the statement is
made that of the 1850 magistrates
and judges, nearly half have re-
ceived an education in Occidental
law, while business is disposed of
with a speed which compares fav-
orably with the work of Western
Courts. A very striking illustra-
tration of the quality of japanese
justice is the case of a German of
the name of Carsten, who demanded
that his trial upon charge of muir
der should be held in a Japanese
rather than German Court, on
the ground that under japanese
law he would get the benefit of
certain extenuating circumstances
of which he would be denied under
the laws of his own country. AS it
is not likely that any body of law
errs on the side of lenity, this
speaks loudly for the humanity of
the japanese system.
In conclusion we would draw at
tention to the following citations,
which contain moral for most
people
The right of Japanese culture to
receive in the fullest degree the title
of civilization is still to certain
section Of people an impossible pOns
dsinorum, but it is open to a demon
stration as easy and as various as is
the Pythagorean proposition. = IS AS
for the inner substance-the degree
of refinement to which the art of liv-
ing has been carried, the private and
public virtues of the people-it is
inexcusably invidious for us to as
sumo to judge them in any other
spirit than that in which we would
criticize Italy, France, or any other
political equal of Europe.

Friday last a gentleman walked in
to the Great Northern depotand asked
Agent Norris for ticket to Miles City.
The agent informed him it was not on
the G.. n. line, and then the stranger,
who seemed easily satisfied, asked how
much it would take to buy ticket to
Deadwood AS Mr.. Norris was busy
he asked the stranger to waita few mo-
ments, and the latter sauntered to the
office stove and kept his eye on the
agent. James did not like the scrutiny.
He thought he was dealing with a
"spotter" or possibly "hold up your
hands, man, and he prepared for the
worst After the train for the east de-
parted the stranger again piled the
agent with questions, all of which were
answered, until at last Mr.. Norris took
a tumble and with the question, "isn't

with a brotherly grip. Matthew G..

Foul Piay.

w. F. Strehlow, of Casselton, North
Dakota, son of William Strehlow,
formerly resident Of Watertown, this
county, disappeared in Chicago, very
mysteriously, October 81, while on a
visit to the Worlds fair. He should
have returned about October 25. 1t is
inferred that something has happened
to him, because he did not call on any
Of the business houses that he intend
ed calling upon. He was accompanied
by his cousin, Miss Laura Strehlow,
whom he took to their hotel and prom
ised to call for later. He never re-
turned. G. r. Meredith, a prominent
business man of Casselton, is now max
search for the missing young man,
who was about twenty-four years old
and brother of clerk in his employ.
Not long ago the Chicago police report
ed the murder of a man named William
Frederick, from the vicinity of Cassel-
ton, North Dakota. AS Strehlow's Civ
en- names were William Frederick it is
feared that he was the victim. Mr..
Meredith stopped here Wednesday on
his way to Chicago, to learn something
if possible of his Whereabouts.-FO

Eastern Star Party.

The winters social season of Water
town chapter, Order of Eastern Star,
was inaugurated Monday evening with
a dancing party at Masonic hall. The
attendance was confined to members
of the order and their families, and in
by the usual gayety and reckless aban
don always to be seen in the so-called
"family gatherings" or their like AL
though the arrangements made the
occasion essentially one for dancing,
this did not prevent the company from
engaging in other festivities which
tended to keep the participants in
most happy mood, and the vocal efforts
of certain members of the gathering
were not the least among these latter
means of amusement. Chief among
the entertainers in this line is said to
have been Ed. May, whose fine bari
tone (?) voice was a perfect delight to
his auditors The ladies, of course,
came to the front with an excellent
luncheon at tho proper time, and alto
gether there was nothing lacking to a
thorough enjoyment of the evening.

Mr.. O'Connor and the Roster Job.

If it is admitted that the attorney
general was not engaged in a scheme
to smirch and disgrace the governor,
then there does not seem to be anv
explanation whatever for his approval
of that scandalous and extravagant
secret contract, except upon the sole
supposition that be knew how much
money it contained for the expiring
organ and that his interest in the organ
was such as to induce him to give his
approval to such disgraceful job. To
claim ignorance Of the constitutional
prohibition and Of the law and of the
character of that contract is nearly as
bad for Mr.. O'Connor and as humiliat-
ing to his political party as it would be
to admit the true character of the
graceless job.-MadiSon Democrat.

does it begin the same time January

"Suppose you had several hundred
silver dollars and wished to divide
them into piles Of 500 each. Would
you stop counting when you had 500 in
one pile in order that your second pile
might begin with number 100? Not a
bit. Your first $100-pile would not be
complete until the e-hundredth dol
lar was in it, and your second S1OO-pile
would begin with dollar number iOl
Isn't it the same way with the cen-
turies?"
