nothing, and the helpless widow is
living on charity. Over three hun
dred millions of dollars were sunk
in railway enterprises in the United
States in the year 1892, much of
which was the property of the
helpless.
On the other hand, the trustees
of every estate form desire to in
crease the income of the beneficial
ries, and often urged to do go by
the benefciaries themselves, are
confronted with the fact that high
rates of interest mean dangerous
security. If perfectly safe security
is taken, yielding small income,
the benefciaries bitterly complain
and charge the trustee with selfish
ness.
So grievous have become the
burdens and risks of trustees, In
the large cities, and so great is the
fear of ultimate loss by those who
have labored hard to provide
money for those dependent on
them, that trust companies have
arisen to meet the difficulty, aud
these act as executors and trustees.
The have already become the
money powers of the money centers,
as they hold vast sums in trust.
The corporations are careful, and
"cold- blooded." They take no
risks, looking always to the abso-
lutte integrity of the principle.
Careful men are gradually de-
Ginning to act as trustees, owing to
the risks involved. If they obtain
large incomes they are rarely
thanked, and if there are losses
they are required to make them
good.
There is no social problem more
than that of man
living generously during his life |
from his business income, and at
his death leaving property, the in
come of which, if invested with
absolute security, compels those
on him to largely reduce
their scale of living. The difficulty
Of making this adjustment has
filed the civilized countries with
people who are disconnected, and
are quite willing, if allowed to do
so, to put their property in peril.
The courts here and elsewhere
ire confronted with most serious
in these matters.

THE POPULAR WAY.

The bill which provides for the
summoning of a Constitutional
Convention does not contain any
thing regarding the method by
which the Constitution, when
framed, is to be turned into law.
We believe that it was, and still is,
better to leave the hands of the
Government free in this particular.
At the same time, the submission
of the Constitution to a popular
vote is course which will natural
ly commend itself to those who be-
ieve in popular government. In
the present instance, such sub
mission is further recommended by
the circumstance that the conven-
ton will only be partially COM
posed of delegates chosen directly
by the people.
We believe that the Government
will adopt the most popular and
representative methods, as far as
thu safety of the interests at stake
will allow it to do so.

EQUALITY ; NOT VOTES.

The Holomua, which is now am
iably disposed to the conserva-
tives, now to the radicals and now
to neither, as the exigencies of the
moment may require, has devel-
oped a great weakness for the Jap
anese, and is very confident that
they will soon exercise the fran
chise on these islands. The Holo-
mua forgets that the contention of
the Japanese Government is not
for the franchise, but simply for
equality. If the subjects of the
Mikado are not Disseminated
against in the matter of the fran
chise, but are treated as the citi-
zens of other nations are, the Jap
anese grievance will be dispelled.
At the worst, then, the exclusion
of japanese from the ballot will
depend only On the willingness of
the Hawaiian Government to ex-
clude from the same privilege all
persons who are not citizens of the
Hawaiian commonwealth.

THEY WANT GOTO.
Lepers Send In a Strong Petition
for His Retention.

The Board of Health met yester-
day afternoon with President Smith
in the chair. There were present
members Waterhouse, Ena, Ian
sing, Miner, and DR.. Myers, and
Agent c. B. Reynolds.
Mr.. Reynolds reported that he
had inquired into the question OF
purchasing the launch of DR..
Trousseau. Captain King was not
in favor of purchasing any launch
that used kerosene as a motive
power, but he favored a launch
using coal. 1t was estimated that
a good one would cost $4,000 or
$4,000. Mr.. Reynolds reported
against purchasing DR.. Trousseau's
boat, and the Secretary was in
structed to notify DR.. Trousseau to
that effect, as the general feeling
was that launch burning coal was
preferable.
An application was received from
DR.. G. A. Peterson asking for the
position of Port Physician. 1t was
placed on file
A petition signed by SCI lepers
at the settlement was received ask
ing that DR.. Goto be appointed res
ident physician there. President
Smith reported that he had seen
DR.. Goto, and that the latter was
willing to continue his present SER
vice for $500 a month, or that he
would remain permanently at the
settlement for $3.50 a month. 1t
was suggested that he be continued
for one year at the present terms,
or at least that no definite arrange
ments be made until after the
passage of the appropriation bill.
1t was also suggested that sam
pies of DR.. Goto's medicines be OBJ
tanned for analysis.
The board adjourned at 5
o'clock.

SUGAR is A MUSCLE MAKER.
On a Diet of Sweets More Work
Nav Be Done With Less Fatigue.

At a recent meeting of the Royal
SOCIETY paper on Sugar as Food
in the Production of Muscular
Work." was read by DIR. Vaughan
Harley, who first gave chemical
reasons that led him to believe that
sugar was the principal factor in the
production of muscular energy. He
then went on to prove that it could
the addition of large quantities of
sugar to the diet caused an increas-
ed capability of doing muscular
work. By means of the ergograph
it was possible to estimate the
amount of work accomplished under
various circumstances by the middle
finger of each hand, weights of 3
kilograms and kilograms being
raised. The total height to which
the weight was lifted being multi
piled by the weight used expressed
in kliogrammemetres the amount of
work accomplished.
The first step was to ascertain the
the value Of sugar when taken alone
IN the production of muscular work.
During "a hours fast on one day
water alone was drunk; on another
500 grammes of sugar was taken IN
an equa! quantity of water. It was
thus found that the sugar not only
prolonged the time before fatigue
occurred, but caused an increase of 81
to rs per cent. in the muscular work
done. In the next place, the effect
of sugar added to the meals was in
vestigated. The muscle energy pro
ducing effect of sugar was found to
be SO great that 200 grammes added
to small meal increased the total
amount of work done from 6 to 80
per cent. Sugar-250 grammes-
was now added to a large mixed
meal, when it was found not only to
increase the amount OF work done
from to 16 per cent, but increase
the resistance against fatigue. As
concluding experiment., $50 grammes
of sugar was added to the meals of a
full diet day, causing the work done
during the period of eight hours
to be increased % to 36 per cent

AN IMPORTANT ISSUE.

The decision of Judge Cooper in
the matter. of the Banning estate
should attract general attention, as
it discusses deliberately, for the first
time in the legal history of this
country, the laws governing the in
svestments of money by trustees or
those who are acting for others.
There is no more serious prob
lem in modern economic life than
that of providing safe investments
FOR the helpless, the ignorant, the
aged, the widows and orphans.
There is constant increase in the
humber of those wholly dependent
llpon the income of property pro-
lEided by kind relatives. Such
persons become untitled for self
support. Vast charitable institu-
ions are dependent upon such in
restments. In the meantime,
throughout the civilized world
ates of interest are gradually de-
sreasing.
Every man, who has accumulated
property for those he loves, is in
onstant trouble as to it's safe in
,estment. He is confronted with
he danger of insecurity. Great
Eanking houses, which are reputed
D be conservative" like the Bar

lg investments in securities in
'hich they have an interest. There
ave been fearful losses through the
anking houses of New England.

The Jones Locked Fence is
the cheapest and strongest
fence ever constructed. We
make this assertion because
the letters we have received
from parties using it on these
Islands endorse everything
we have ever said about it
We believe that in another
year every plantation and
ranch on the Islands will be
enclosed by the Jones Locked
Fence. You will understand
that we do not sell the fence
made up, only the material;
wire, stays and washers for
making it. This means that
if you have a poorly built
fence of the old style you can
make it as strong as you
please by bracing it with
stays fastened to the wires by
washers. For a five wire
fence each stay with five
washers will cost you eight
cents. You can tell from this
just what it will cost you to
strengthen your fence and
keep it from sagging. Send
US an order for a hundred
stays and five hundred wash
ers and surprise yourself.

Particulars of the Accident to the
Claudine.
POLITICS ARE BECOMING QUIET.
An Interesting Budget of News from
Maui and Hawaii-Several Serious
Mishaps-Hilo's New Ice Machine
Causes an Injury to Mr.. Terry.

MAUI, April 2S. = Maui people
looked in vain for the Claudine during
Wednesday morning, the 25th inst.
The islands favorite steamer was not
at her moorings. What could be the
matter? Revolution, casualty or
what? The story of the weeks epi-
isode is as follows:
The Claudine left Honolulu Tuesday
evening with the large bark Alden
Besse in tow, but the wind was so
strong that Wednesday morning the
lighthouse on the end of Molokai was
still ahead of her. Just before noon
she reached Lahaina, and as the water
was smoother, Captain Cameron
ordered the hawser to be shortened.
This task was successfully accom-
plished, but in the meanwhile the big
bark had gotten considerable stern
way on. The captain, noting this,
stopped the steamer SO that the strain
would not be too great when the line
became taut. Nevertheless, the strain
was so tremendous that the iron bits,
around which the hawser was secured
aboard the steamer, gave way, and
pieces of iron flew in all directions
with a mighty force. The second
mate, standing to one side, was struck
by a small fragment just above the
forehead, infiictiDg quite a serious
flesh wound. Two native sailors
standing back of the bits received
greater injuries. One of them was
wounded just above the ankle, open
ing deep cash, from which the blood
struck by large piece just below the
knee and fell forward as though shot.
When picked up it was discovered
that leg had been broken, the bones
in the vicinity of the fracture being
badly shattered.
DR.. Allen, of Hama, fortunately
being on board, did much to relieve
the suffering of the wounded ones.
In the face of so much misfortune,
Captain Cameron decided to land pas
sengers and mail at Maalaea, and to
pick up Pilot English, of Kahului, to
assist him rounding the windy Kaha-
kuloa point. The pilot, having been
summoned by telephone from La
haina, met the steamer at the bay,
and coon boarded the Besse, which
had been temporarily left at Lahaina.
The bark and its convoy arrived in
Kahului Thursday at:9 O'clock a. M.
The three injured men were landed a.
Maalaea and taken to Wailuku Hos
pital.
The Claudine did not get away for
Hama till early Friday morning.
The master of the Alden Besse is

to Maui people.

STRAY SCRIBBLINGS.

During last evening, the 9th inst,
the old Wailuku saloon building, op-
posite the depot, was burned to the
ground. Some natives living near by
discovered the fire about O'Clock d.
m., but as it originated from the i'm
side and had gained great headway,
nothing could be done to prevent total
destruction. Not only were the build
ing and outhOuses completely con-
sumed, but the front platform of the
Kahului Railroad Co.'s station was
burned, and it was only by great
efforts that the depot itself was saved.
The destroyed building was large
two and one-half story wooden struc-
ture belonging to Mrs. Bachelor. 1t
was formerly used as saloon, but re-
Gently it has been undergoing repairs,
preparatory to be opened as hotel.
Painters had been at work, and the
owner is in Honolulu, so rumor says,
purchasing effects to fit up the house.
The cause of the casualty can only be
couiectured. 1t is stated that the
property was insured. III. III. Plem-
mer, several of the Catholic brothers
and some natives saved the depot
from destruction.
This was the second Wailuku fire
during the week. On Tuesday eve
ming, the oath inst, small Chinese
shanty opposite Henry Roberts
butcher shop on Market street, was
destroyed. Through the efforts of
citizens the adjoining buildings in this
thickly-settled part of the village
were saved.
On Monday, the 23d inst, two Chi
namen, Loi Sin. and Ah Koni were
committed for burglary at the Wal
luku police court by Justice Daniels.
The story of their crime and arrest
is as follows: During the night of the
10th inst the Spreckelsville planta-
ton store was entered through
window and about $40 worth of dry
goods, watch chains, shoes ETC., were
spirited away. Thursday, the 10th
inst, Deputy Sheriff Hooking was in
formed that the aforesaid Celestials
had been seen bearing mysterious
bundles into certain Haiku gulch.
Upon searching the house of Aiona,
