MAGAZINE NOTES.

The opening article in Scribner's mag
azine for June is, "Life in Logging
Camp" Michigan logging camp, writ
ten by practical lumberman who began
life as a cruiser, or Gland locker" as he is
more frequently called in this article. 1t
has about it the freshness and dash OF
personal experience that we all know
how to appreciate, after reading write
ups" of such things by lily-handed liter
airy sharps. Foi cnce we need not make
the moan of Mr.. Bagehot that those who
know anything don't know how to write,
and those who know how to write don't
know anything. This jolly land-looker
knows his Michigan logging camp from
foreman to chore boy, and has good
word, free Of fattery, for all.
The work is, Of necessity, very like our
Washington; but being carried on in win
ter, instead Of summer, elements of hard
ship, danger and rollicking recreation
about the bunk room stoye, makes the life
fuller of excitement than we know in oul
tepid climate.
The illustrations, by Dan Beard, are
rather too much in the spirit of carica
ture to be thoroughly satisfactory. The
writer recognized in the "shanty boy
his past self; but the artist found, OF
made, him droll fellow, somewhat out
side the pale Of his friendship. Many o
the faces are distinctly clownish as shown
in the drawings, which is far from char
acteristic OF the logger's face. 1t would
be strange, indeed, ii SO daring, manly
and wide-awake a life as the writer des
cribes, did not write itself in frank
strong faces; and any one who has stud
led the men about the dinner table of 6
logging camp, can testify to the high av
erage OF that best good looks that spring
from health, pluck and intelligence.

Humming Bird In a Spiders Web.

morning when she heard frightened bird
in tangle of nasturtium vines. She

black and yellow were fastening toward It.

THE LEPERS.

The mild, but firm, policy which
the board of health already init
mates will be carried out in regu-
lating matters at the leper settle
ment, is the proper one to follow.
We remember that for the past ten
or more years the question of the
treatment of lepers has been con-
sidered of grave importance by
succeeding legislatures, and much
discussion has always resulted.
But, while the matter has generally
been thoroughly talked over, it
seems to have never been settled.
This may have been owing to dila-
tory action on the part of each
succeeding board of health, or from
other causes.
Be this as it may, the present
board shows d disposition to take
this question, among others, "by
the horns" and place itself upon
record with policy which should
have been followed long ago. The
matter of segregation is one of the
things upon which a firm stand
should be taken. Once the policy
is decided upon it should be car
ried out bravely and fearlessly. 1t
is believed the present board will
do its duty here as at other points.

4 Fatal Visit to Hawaii.

indianapolis, April pa spec
ial from Fort Wayne, Ind, to the
Sentinel says: a case of what sew
eral physicians who had an exami-
nation unhesitatingly pronounce
genuine Asiatic leprosy has made
its appearance in this city. This
afternoon a Syrian woman giving
her name as Schantznes Onschlet
called at the office of DR.. Stirgis
for treatment. Her face was yellow,
shrunken and bore disgusting
blotehes such as Enthusiastically
mark lepers and distinguishes lep-
rosy from any other disease. When
the woman held out her left hand
it was seen that all the fingers were
rotted off as far as the first joint,
and the index finger bone protrud-
ed where the flesh sloughed off.
She said that she did not want any
medicine, but asked the doctor to
remove the dead bone, which inter
fered with her business, which is
that of notion peddler.
The bone was removed, as it was
already rotten. The case was re-
ported to the authorities, who i'm
mediately took steps to take care
of the woman. She arrived in this
city three weeks ago from the Pa
cifc coast, and states that she
spent year in the islands of the
Pacific ocean, and that she con-
tracted the disease on one of the
Hawaiian islands. She will be sent
to Syria, where she desires to go,
that she may die on her native
soil.
The Hawaiian gazette., 1893-05-09

TIE press Of the United States
has at last awakened to the fact
that annexation is a question OF
national rather than of party i'm
portance. Even that staunch demo
cratic organ the New York World
is hedging on its former position,
and now comes out fairly and
squarely in favor of sustaining an
American policy in Hawaii. The
New York Herald viii likely follow
the lead Of its powerful contempor-
ary as soon as It discovers on which
side the presidential favor is likely
to lean. It Is rather surprising that
these journals have not ere this
discovered that the government at
Washington would in the end carry
out the clearly expressed will Of
the people of the United States.
The Hawaiian gazette., 1893-05-09

fore, be the first to uphold the gov
ernment in its endeavors to stamp
out, or at least control. this dread
full disease. That many of the
natives do so is well known to all ;
but it is nevertheless a fact that
the majority of native Hawaiians
are either Indifferent on this point
or are openly opposed to protective
measures.
The whole trouble, however,
seems to be in taking the first
steps towards segregation. At this
point the chief opposition arises,
which gives the authorities so
much perplexity and vexatiOn.
After the unfortunate sufferers are
once removed to Kalaupapa, the
government finds but little oppo-
sition.
The humane treatment of these
unfortunate wards of the govern
ment is one of the foremost causes
of success at this point. The
fact has been lately illustrated
during the investigations carried
on by the committee of the board
of health at the settlement. After
public notice of two weeks had
been given by the proper authori-
ties for the re-examination of lepers,
only two, out of 1884 at the settle
ment, presented themselves before
the examiners. And it is stated
to be an actual fact that those
showing the least signs of the ter
rible affiiction will offer excuses
rather than appear before the ex-
aiming board, when they think
they may stand a chance of being
from the easy and COM
Portable life they lead at Kalau-
papa,
Such q state of contentment
speaks very highly for the policy
and management of the present
beard of health, as matters at the
settlement have not always been in
so satisfactory condition.
We are not of the opinion of
some that the least said of leprosy
the better. There might have been
grounds for such a view in the past, |
put there are certainly none now.
The Hawaiian gazette., 1893-05-09

IT Is quite evident that the
stream Of travel towards the great
Columbian Exposition has fairly
set in, and that the three lines OF
ocean steamers will be taxed to
their utmost capacity to meet the
demands of tourists. The Austria
liza carried away over two hundred,
the Monowai over three hundred,
and each following steamer will be
full for four or five months to come.
It is possible that this stream of
travel once diverted from the old
beaten tracks to the new route via
Honolulu, may keep on and require
the employment of larger and
swifter vessels than those now in
the service. Travel and trade are
on the increase in other quarters
and will increase here, provided
the facilities are equal to the de-
mand.

THE MISREPRESENTATION OF MR..
gORDHOFF.

The author Of the work on Nor
then California, Oregon and the
Sandwich Islands is not celebrated
for his accuracy, and his recent
correspondence viii win him no
laurels in this direction. The letter
which he has sent to the New York
Herald is a tissue of misrepresen-
tations from beginning to end, and
its title, Facts About Hawaii" !" is
most misleading. We have searched
it in vain for anything about Ha-
waii which could possibly be des-
cribed as a fact, and indeed the
only fact Of any kind upon which
il sheds light is one not expressly
set forth-the fact, namely. that
the writer must have been a grossly
prejudiced, unfair and incompe-
tent observer.
The truth is that Mr.. Nordhoff
came 10 Hawaii with his mind all
made up, and he has not condes-
eended to change ii. His article
might have been and very likely
was written before he set foot on Ha-
waiian soil. The sea voyage would
have afforded the leisure, and sea
sickness all the spleen which the
occasion required. Mr.. Nordhof'
may have learned of the New
York Evening Post or Herald that
'only the planters favor annexa-
tion," but he cannot have learned
it in Honolulu, because here peo-
pie happen to know better. Is it
not more charitable to Mr.. Nord-
hoff to treat his letter as the
effusion of seasickness, or as the
fancy piece of a space writer, than
to suppose him so dull of sight
and hearing as to have composed
It here in Honolulu, where every |

4 Rare Greek Coin Bought of a
Portuguese.

Friday Mr.. D. F. Sanford
brought rare and old coin to this
Office that had been bought by Mr..
J. A. Macguire of a Portuguese
about week ago.
The coin was submitted to DR.
Hyde, who is of the opinion it is
genuine, and was probably made
from 400 to 60 years before
Christ He thinks that the coin
was probably brought here by some
of the Greek or Arab peddIers who
have sometimes visited Honolulu.
The piece is of silver and nearly
resembles the cut of the well-known
coin of Antiochus the Great, fam
iliar to classical students. 1t differs
