Sans Souci. This favorite seaside
resort, which has been immortalized
by the pen Of Robert l.. Stevenson,
who resided there for months, is
only four miles from Honolulu and
within easy reach of the tramcars.
The surroundings and bathing at
this famous resort are superior to
anything found in the Hawaiian
Islands. Cottages and board can
be obtained on easy terms. The
table set by the manager is better
than any offered here at other ho-
tells. For picnics, bathing parties
and outings the best accommodation
can be secured by giving notice to
the manager.

SHALL WE TAKE oHANoEsp

The China arrived this morning
from Japan and anchored outside.
The agent of the steamer Mr.. Hack
field, went out in a boat and de-
livered to the captain sealed letter
received from the head Office at
San Francisco. The letter was read
and contained emphatic instructions
to the master OF the steamer to re-
fuse to take passengers, freight and
mail from Honolulu.
The Independent. [volume] (Honolulu, H.I.) 1895-1905, 1895-10-07

The Board of Health promulgates
an order officially that no schools
shall be opened in the infected dis
trict as proclaimed by boundaries.
The Board of Education, who
ought to know where all the Gov
ernment schools are located, notifies,
also officially proclaims that sail
Government schools" are open to-
day. In the case Of the Kauluwela
school which order are pupils and
teachers are to obey? The Board of
Education's or the Board OF Health's?
Again the Board of Education has
shown it's incompetency and lack of
knowledge. AS we have before said
this is no doubt due to its compost
ton.

THE POLICE RUN.

The Advertiser recites a trial drill
of the police force under Marshal
Brown on Sunday evening, which
can only add lustre to that function
ary's reputation and the efficiency
of the force he commands. We are
sometimes led to wonder what Mr..
Dole's Government could do without
the Hawaiians on the force. They,
under Captain Parker, are selected
The Independent. [volume] (Honolulu, H.I.) 1895-1905, 1895-10-07

Doubtless this exhibit as to what
the police could do has application
to the. supposed Eruption of fill
busters from-wherel OF course
the filibusters will select one of the
most available wharves on the water
front to effect a landing upon, notice
OF which probably came with the
original notice Of intention. That
is the way the filibuster generally
does.
The Independent. [volume] (Honolulu, H.I.) 1895-1905, 1895-10-07

We may say to the Marshal, and
it applies with the same force to the
major OF marines, that it is hardly
soldierly, and certainly not inspiring
to the men who must do the fight
ing, to see their commanding officers
select carriages in which to lead
their men. 1t was too much "Ker-
ridge" that led to the downfall Of
General John @. Fremont, the Great
Pathfinder.

The Independent. [volume] (Honolulu, H.I.) 1895-1905, 1895-10-07

1t is perhaps proper here to call
the attention of Marshal Brown that
no army or soldierly body of men
ever run at "full speed" except they
run away. Marshal Browns Sat
tacking" or defending" force that
reached the Inter-Island wharf in
four minutes would be unable and
incapacitated to aim gun or fire it
off with any effect. The boys, after
such run, might be full of courage,
but certainly short of wind. But
the Marshal knows, Of course, that
this is all boys play, and that the
police never run towards the enemy.
The Independent. [volume] (Honolulu, H.I.) 1895-1905, 1895-10-07

The proposition of the govern
ment to throw another batch of
coolies from infected ports on our
shores is simply outrageous. The
China may have a clean bill of
health. So did the Belgic. The
authorities have got the bills of
health; the community has got the
cholera.
The Independent. [volume] (Honolulu, H.I.) 1895-1905, 1895-10-07

A meeting of the Board of Health
was held and it was decided that the
China cannot land her 534 Chinese
passengers for this port, her freight,
or her mail, unless she agrees to take
equivalents from this port.
The Independent. [volume] (Honolulu, H.I.) 1895-1905, 1895-10-07

We now have to ask the powers
that be whether the filibuster epi-
sode has not had its day9 And
should it not be relegated to the
limbo of other scares to which this
community has been treated during
the thirty-one months since the
monarchy2 As the Royalists do not
scare, the interests of the men, wo-
men, and children of those who sup
port Mr.. Dole should be studied, or
we shall have other cases of nervous

Francisco seems to be the only balm.

Timely Topics.
Honolulu, Sept. go, 1895.

questions OF hygiene are the
main issues of the day. While
the learned scientists of Europe
are devoting their time and
skill to find remedies which
can destroy the disease breeding
germs, the diseases go on and
cholera, diptheria and typhoid
ravage cities and countries.
Whenever q disease becomes
epidemic it is because the germ
found conditions which suited
it and in which it felt at home
and ready for business. The
sanitary conditions of the town
and of the home becomes of
vital Importance. Honolulu is
having a taste of a cholera cpl
demic and it behooves every
body to do his best in placing
every home in the best sanitary
condition possible.
When the general house-clean-
ing which will take place next
Monday is over, many house
keepers will find some house
hold furniture which needs re-
newal and others missing both
as to utility and convenience.
We. call attention to-day to
our Oil Stoves. The "Dietz"
Stove which we carry in stock
has gained great reputation
everywhere. The one we espe-
cially recommend is the most
complete oil stove ever offered
in the market. 1t is perfectly
safe for the user of it, and it
will answer all purposes in
well regulated household. Five
quarts of oil is sufficient to burn
ten to twelve hours. In ten
minutes a half gallon water can
be boiled. 1t will fry and boil,
bake or broil at the same time.
You can boil potatoes and bake
biscuit at the same time. In
ten minutes you can broil a
steak to perfection, and in an
hour and a half you can roast
an eight-pound turkey. Once
tried the "Dietz" Oil Stove will
be found the very thing for the
housekeeper, and the price
brings it within the reach of
everybody.
The Water Coolers which we
have on hand are the very
things for restaurants, saloons,
schools and stores. After the
water is boiled fill the cooler
with it, and even without ice, it
will keep a pleasant tempera-
ture. Large families will find
these highly ornamental coolers
of great advantage and a great
saving in regard to ice.
What, however, is more use
full than a Monarch Bicycle. In
San Francisco and other places
mail and paper carriers, bust
ness men and professional men
use the Monarch, and have
within the diamond arranged
leather bag, very easily fixed,
which will contain paper, docu-
ment, lunches and clothing and
10 service as the saddle bags do to
Jhe horseman. The Monarch is
Jhe most solid and best appointed
The Independent. [volume] (Honolulu, H.I.) 1895-1905, 1895-10-07

If it is agreed to land the coolies
from the China to accommodate a
certain clique, they will have to be
landed at the quarantine island.
There to-day, are large number of
men, women, and children, who went
into voluntary quarantine to reach
their homes on Maui and Hawaii. In
few days more the quarantine rule
would have been complied with and
the people allowed to depart. By
the landing in their immediate
vicinity of a number of coolies from
ports cholera infected ports the
chances are that our friends will
depart in coffins. Dare the Board
Of Health of Mr.. Dole take the risk?
The Independent. [volume] (Honolulu, H.I.) 1895-1905, 1895-10-07

The agents of the steamer may
persuade the captain to disobey his
orders. For the sake of sending a
few letters abroad the community
it may again take it's chances of the
landing of germ breeding Asiatics.
But if the step is taken and cholera
breaks out again retribution will
perhaps be swift and sure.
