An inquirer asks the following question
in a Brooklyn newspaper: I ask you lie it
tie correct thing for a mother or father,
as soon as a young lad of 9 or 10 years of
age comes home from scbosl, to keep him
three and four hours on the piano-no
outdoor recreation, no tins for him to
playa This ia allowed by man calling
himself coed, religious man. What do
you think Of such q mani Was he ever a
boy3
This ia a very pertinent inquiry, but,
like most other questions, it canrot be
answered in such a way as to leave no
room for argument. There are two large
classes of people who will have no hesita-
tion in saying that the man who
calls himeelf good, religious man
and "allows" his ron TO practice on
the piano three or four hours day after
coming home from echo oil Is not a good, re-
ligious man. Every boy who is allowed to
so practice knows 1t is wrong, and knows
that the father who allows 1t IL wrong.
And all the nei9hbors who hear the boys
who are "sllowed" TO practice three or
four hours every day feel Just AS the boys
do about 1t, though for somewhat different
reasons. Those who live near such boys
know that no good, religious man will
keep piano and boy going for three or
four hours at a time daily.
But music teachers will see nothing
wicked or irrsligious in such a perform
ance They have an idea that boy looks
better and is better practising on q piano
than on a baseball field. They know that
in most cases such practice will not make
perfect, but they also know that by prac-
tice almost any boy can learn to play the
piano little And as 1t is their business
to encourage art they find no difficulty In
looking upon a small boy at a piano
as q proper and improving spectacle.
Ambitious and hopeful parents also
see nothing wrong or irreligious in
such piano practice as the Brooklyn boy
complains of. They think their boys who
are willing to play anything but the piano
for hours at time are the ones who are
In the wrong. Why boys who are the
most unfit for piano playing are usually
picked out for Paderewskis by their pa
rents is one of the mysteries, but they are,
and 1t takes great deal of practicing to
make the mistake obvious. But no father
who Is convinced that he has piano
humping genius in his son can be easily
persuaded that ii is wrong or irreligious to
keep him humping.
So the Brooklyn inquirer cannot have
his question conclasively answered. Prob
ably he is q boy, who doesn't like to prac'
tice three or four hours a day, and whose
bondage has brought him to such.a point Of
bitterness that he thinks his dear father Ii
wicked and irreligious. Many boys are ir
the same predicament. We think sucf
boys are right, but we are perhaps prsju
diced on account of the necessity which Il

The rise IN sterling nevertheless is a
favorable feature, in so far as it reflects
the international money markets re-
turn to normal conditions. How far the
recent extreme low rates for sterling
were due to importers inability to raise
money for the purchase of bills on Lon
don 1t is not easy to say. Certainly this
has played its part; for what the ster-
ling market has witnessed in the fort
night past has been an absence of de-
mand so complete that moderate offer
ingS, If pressed, could break the
rates to almost any figure. Pre-
cisely the same situation existed
in October, 1873, when actual quo
tations for demand sterling fell to 81. rs,
the embarrassment of importers through
the lack of bank accommodation being
then increased by the market premium
on gold. In 1878 the lack of saleable
commodities caused a rapid and contln-
uous rally in exchange; the Bank Of
England rate, too, standing at per

notably in the grain market, present in
most respects an altogether different sit

Three Englishmen Arrested for
Conspiracy Against the Pro-
VisionaI Government

HONOLULU, June 2S.-Developments
of the past six days have been three ar
rests for conspiracy to overthrow the
provisional government; threat
against the life of Claus Spreckels, and
organization of a society within the
the ranks of the anneXationists,
for the purpose of shooting
down certain royalists in event
of any open attack upon the present
government. Claus Sprcckels found on
his gate few days ago a placard Or
namented with skull and crossbones
and bearing the inscriptions: "Gold
and silver will not stop lead" He laid
the matter before Minister .Blonnt, and
the latter forwarded Spreckels' state
ment to the provisional government.
The names of the persons arrested for
conspiracy are r. B. Walker, Z. c.
Crlck and Archibald Livelain. They
are all English, and the British consul
was disposed TO Interfere in their be-
half, but dropped the matter when in
formed of the nature of the charges
against them. The government
claims to have evidence against
these men showing they were
forming plot to blow up the
government buildings and then shoot
down the anneXationistS when they
should rush to the scene. A large NUM-
Der of other persons are being watched
by the authorities. Six or seven hun
dred anneXationists have formed ''cit-
liens reserve" They are armed
with rifles, and have selected GER
tain prominent supporters of the eX-
queen whose names are known, and
marked them for slaughter in event of
a rOyalIst outbreak. A member Of this
organization gives list OF names of
those marked for assassination, and
says that in addition to prominent Ha-
waiians, it includes Claus Spreckels and
Minister BOunt in case they interfere
III any fight that may occur.
