A cradle song, dedicated to the Prince
Imperial of France (killed in Zululand
in the Zulu war; at his birth, written by
Douglas Jerrold and published in
Punch, closed with the following stanza:
Hush-a-by, baby, what tho at thy birth
Humbugs called monarchs may cum DER the
earth,
Ere thy life closes the sunshine may beam
On "A world without kings and a people
supreme.
To the foregoing it may not be map
propriate at this time to add
How little he thought who thus sang at thy
birth,
That the head of the greatest Republic on
earth
Would be ere to ashes had crumbled thy
bones,
A champion of queens and supporter OF
thrones

power by any encroachmeut upon the

wrong which it has ever done the Ha-

of the native Hawaiian. The cause and

WAS A REGULAR FLOOD.
MOUNTAIN TORRENTS OVERFLOW
NUUANU's BANKS.
Fences and Outbuiidings Carried Away
Were Ready to Take to Boats
Rescue Work.

For about three hours last evening
residents on the banks of the Nuuanu
stream were in danger from flood On
the Eva side the channel in places was
wldened more than 100 feet. There was
a cloud. burst up the valley about $3.50.
The freshet brought down any quantity
of building material, trees, shrubs and a
few pigs, chickens and ducks. A num-
Der of fences and outbuildings were
wrecked.
Large crowds gathered at the Bere-
tania and King street bridge.
Piles of lumber and other plunder
We're accumulated by natives and Chi
nese with lassoes. Fence posts and
boards were the chief prizes. The heav-
lest swelling of the stream was Just
above the Beretania crossing. Here the
creek widcned into Il small lake. A
regular torrent rushed down on the
Waikiki side of the Chinese joss house.
On the other side, where there is usual v
dry land. the water was from two ,
five feet deep. About twenty Chimes
and few natives viewed the flood from
the veranda of the joss house. Early in
the flood they brought whale boat up
from the dock. This was made fast to
the fence and equipped for a voyage
For a time it looked as if the fence
would go. The water had deepened so
between the house and the fence that it
was necessary to swim for the boat.
Skitfs. punts and canoes were fastened
to houses all over the neighborhood, and
in couple of places RATS were hastily
| constructed
In the little settlement on the bottoms
above the Beretania crossing the efforts
| of the inha bitauts were directed TO saw
ing chickens, ducks, pigs and dogs. All
| the live property was brought into
the houses. In doing this the
men and women had to wade
in water above their waists. They were
urged to greater eXertions by ad vice
and cheers from the crowd on the
bridge.
About $50 the new, big stream began
to retire and this morning muddy water
was moving lazily in the old channel.
The damage will not be great. a few
/ garden patches were ruined. At one
I time the railway embankment near the
mouth of the stream was threatened.
! The water has not been so high in the
channel for several years.
| Heavy rains are reported all over the
island. The stage from Eva to this city
was abandoned yesterday on account of
swollen streams.

A Plea for White Labor.

EDITOR STAR: Reading the Holom ua
assuredly gives me that tire feeling, but
there was one article in that would be
paper last Friday that | think will
stand careful perusal by employers OF
labor in this country. There are a lot
of idle white men here at present, many
of them willing to take any kind of
work that they can get. Now it is not
necessary for these men to go into a
cane field. There are plenty of jobs In
sugar mills, and as plantation carpen
tiers and blacksmiths and pa n ers. All
the plantation managers neeu o do is l.,
get it in their heads that someone else
besides the Chinese could do their work
And, by the way, could not our local
steamship companies, both strong An
nexationlsts, | believe, employ few
more white men on pinchl

The Railway All Eight.

The track and roadbed OF the Oahu
Railway and Land Company resisted
the severe storm beautifully. A gang
of men was kept out all night clearing
the culverts and removing debris from
the bridges between the city and the
terminus. In scores of places the water,
in great volume and with terrific force,
threw itself against the embankment,
but effected no harm whatever, This
speaks well indeed for the condition of
the line.

4 Good Plan that win Facilitate Tinnn-

A new plan is being pursued in pre-
pairing the biennial general appropri-
alton bill. which must soon be brought
before the Councils. Minister Damon
is responsible for the variation.
He presents course that will
appeal To all who are in favor
of business-like administration of
public affairs. 1t is that instead of
having one bill to cover all manner of
expenses in all departments, there
be at least two acts Tie first will
provide for salaries and pay
rolls, the second for the several general
purposes requiring funds. BY this
means If there are any changes in
salaries the new rate can he put in force
with the new period instead of continue
ing at the old figures into the new term
u I'll the general appropriations become
available. Salary and pay roll allot-
ments can be made at one or two meet.
ings before the accounts of the depart
ments are closed for the biennial period.
BY division of the question the law
makers will face two compact
bills in place Of one speci-
fying every dollar to be eX-
pended in any direction by the Gov
eminent. A proper amount of time eau
be given to the bill providing for gen
eral purposes if il ia freed from salary
and payroll considerations. Drafts of
