MELAEGE.

The effect produced by the pub
lication of the crown lands act IN
the ADVERTISER has been benefi-
cial. The policy of the Pro-
visional government seems to
be one Of establishing confidential
relations between government and
people. Thus far it has been a
success. The finance department
was the first to lead and it seems
to be now an established principle
at the executive building that the
widest publicity is to be given to
the details of all public affairs.
This is right. 1t illustrates the
true wisdom of craftsmanship. 1t
is contrary to the method followed
by the monarchy, and is, therefore,

able. Thus far the results have

An alarm of fire occurred yester-
day noon which fortunately
proved to be nothing more serious
than an incipient blaze, that was
put out with a bucket or two of
water. 1t was a pleasure to see
the promptness with which the
engines responded to the tap of
the bell. Hardly had the alarm
been given, before the horses were
seen dashing out from No. rs
station, dragging the engine which
sped at 2 40 pace until it reached
the scene in two or three minutes,
followed almost instantly by No. 2
and the hose cart. Such prompt
ness gives confidence to property
holders that this city possesses the
best protection against loss from
fire that it can possibly have and
one that is far superior to the anti
quated system which it superseded.
We congratulate both the fremen
and the government on the I'M
provements made in the fire de-

The care with which the crown
4nds act has been drawn and the
favorable comments it has gener-
ally received go to show that the
government has quite accurately
measured public sentiment and
propriety for utilizing the immense
tract of the public domain whose
revenues have been heretofore
emptied into the profigate purses
of royalty. There seems to be little
doubt as to the passage OF the
crown lands act without material
amendment. 1t is understood that
as soon as the act becomes a law
the government is preparing to in
troduce two other bills to give prac-
teal effect to the act. One will
grant inalienable titles to persons
without means who desire to be-
came bona fide settlers. They will
be expected to pay the costs of en-
try and the taxes. Such lands will
descend by will or probate, in the
same inalienable manner, to their
heirs, failing which they will
escheat to the Hawaiian govern
ment, as they will in case OF aban-
donment. A second bill will be
introduced for the benefit of per-
sons of moderate means, which will
permit them to take up lands under
a perpetual lease system. like that
of New Zealand. Such holders WI
go into possession under a long
lease, with the right aud privilege
of purchase during the term OF the
leasehold upon an appralsemen1
of value made by the government
when the lease is drawn. Such &
plan is to be commended, and we
believe will give the public the
practical benefits of the new lano
measure, which, when a law, vii
aid directly and permanently The
development of our natural ant
national resources.

The New York papers have sized
up the Herald's correspondents to
the letter. The Morning Advertiser
declares that the successor left by
Papa Nordhoff in Honolulu, who
ever he may be, is following the
lead given him. Says Papa's
successor: "Mr. Spreckels has not
taken his attitude from any sentl-

Driving Dynnmiters TO Idiocy.

Thomas Calian of Lowell, who was

legged dynamiter, reached Lowell,
Mass, Monday morning. AS pre-
viously announced, he was released on
ticket of leave. He has been confined
in Chatham and Portland prisons.

depriving the alleged dynamiters of
their reason. They are not allowed
to speak, and solitary confinement is
imposed if the men are even sus-
pected of whispering. Callan says
that DR.. Gallagher of Brooklyn, who
was fellow prisoner, is insane, but
the officials say he is shamming. Gal
lagher, according to Callan, is in the
iniirmary most of the time,. and can-
not last long. One of the other
dynaniters, Callau says. has become
a dwelling idiot. Sometimes he
breaks out in wild laughter and for
this is punished with solitary confne-
ment in a dark, cold cell in chains
from two to five days. Callan is SO
years of age and unmarried, and is a
veteran of the war. There was a
large crowd at the depot to greet
him.

The storage Of Apples.

A room with a good draught of
air through it, and with shelves all
round the walls, made of laths of
wood two or three inches apart, or
perforated zinc nailed on frame
work of wood, is best for the storage
of apples. Do not let them touch
each other, and if they have air all
round them, theywill be in good con-
djtion when other fruit is rotten. OF
course they must have been carefully
picked by hand from the tree, the
bruised ones being used first. Some
varieties will keep three or four
months longer than others, and these
should be carefully looked after. By
looking over the apples once a week,
and taking away any that show symp-
toms of decay, the winter stock Of
fruit will amply repay care and atten-

Chinese Surgery.

practice Of surgery differs considera-
bly, from that in vogue in less en-
lightened Western countries. Bone
setting in the Celestial Empire is a

more cfficacious than European meth
DDS. In setting a fractured limb the
surgeon does not attempt to bring
the bones together but merely wraps
the limb in red clay, inserting some
strips Of bamboo into the clay. These
strips are swathcd in bandages, and
in tEb6uter bandage the head of a
live Ehicken is placed. Here comes In
