Thurston the Orator.

The "event" Of the year is un-
doubtedly the selection by th'
Geo.sW. DE Long Post of Mr..
l.. A. Thurston to deliver the
address on decoration day.
What motives have led the
leaders of the Post into COM
hitting so glaring an error,
we cannot tell. 1t is enough
that on the 30thinst., the Me-
mortal Day, honored and
observed by all A mericans, the
address customary at the ce-
LIBERATION of that solemn day,
will be delivered in Honolulu
by a non-American, and a
man whom the administration
of the Great Republic has sent
away in disgrace.
The memory of the George
w. De Long Post must be
very short indeed. Else its
members would recollect that
a certain Post in the United
States was expelled by the
Grand Army for insulting the
President Of the United States
Whoever the person is whC
holds the Office as chief execu
tive of the glorious republic
he is entitled to the regard
respect and honor of every
true American.
Mr.. Thurston has been Sc
lected as the orator Of the day
for the purpose of insulting
Mr.. Cleveland and his admi
nistration. 1t is no use trying
to mince matters. Thurstor
is not an American. He is moi
m orator. He has no affiliatior
with the Grand Army Of th'
Republic. When he in spite o
these facts has been selected
to speak on that memorable
day the object of these mis-
guided, tactless men become
obvious. 80
1t has been the custom her
to ask the American mlniste
or consul-general to make tn
address of Memorial Day
IF none of these gentlemen
has been able or willing t.
do it the Post has Away
called upon an officer from al
American man of war if ther'
was one in port. The Phila
delphia is here and it is we'll
known that there is excellen
oratorical talent on board onl.
too willing to"be heard. l
Minister Willis has been foun'
unwilling to deliver the address
and we have not heard any
statement to that effect surely
Captain Cochrane could nave
been secured. The selection
of Thurston is pn-American
indecent and an egregious error

MEDICAL C0NvENTl0
Doctors Meet in Confer.
ence with the Board
of Health.
Some Interesting Papers And
Discussions.

The Board of Hoalth met in
convention with town and coun-
try doctors yesterday afternoon.
Attorney General W. o. Smith.
nresident, was in the chair, and
Ntber members of the Board pre-
sent were DR.. Wood and Messrs.
J T. Waterhouse and T. F. Lam
sing. Charles Wilcox, secretary;
and q. B.. Reynolds, executive
officer, we're also present, together
with the following visitors: Drs
Cooper. Day, Howard, Wayson,
Bresee, Myers and Surmann of
Honolulu, DIR. Russell Of Waia-
nae and Mrs. Russell. DIR. Al
varez of Waialua. DIR. Lindley of
Kona, Hawaii, DR. Armitage of
Wailukn, Mani, and DR.. Weddick
OF Kealia, Kauai.
President w. o. Smith deliv-
cred an opening address, in which
he announced that papers would
be read by different medical gen.
tlemen present. He suggested
that the members of convention
should visit some of the public
institutions, such MS the Kalihi
receiving station, the prison, asy
,Inm and, If desirable, Lunalilo
Home.
One of the doctors said they
should like to visit the Queens
Hosnital.
The president said he would
like to have the convention cal
on President Dole. He left it tc
the meeting whether any papers
should be read that afternoon.
MIR. Lansing thonght, as the
evening would be fully occupied
and there was a long programme
for next afternoon, some of the
papers should be now heard.
DR.. Alvarez was called up, ant
read a paper on the treatment o
leprosy. He mentioned cures re
ported in Brazil and other coun.
tries, and referred to the discov
cry of the bacillus of hprosy by
'Dr. Jansen of Norway. Much i'm
portance was attached in the
paper to the interchange of ex-
periences and ideas with th;
medica investigators of othel
countries. The essayist produced
much interesting information o
investigations into various di-
seases made in other countries
and advanced some ideas of hi
own regarding the treatment o
leprosy.
DR.. Armitage made some re.
marks on the paper. A great dsa
that had been written on lepros,
he thought had been too san
guine. Yet it was fact tina
leprosy had become extinct il
several European countries where
it had once been prevalent. The
continuance of the disease ir
some countries could not be at
tributed to the existence of old
foul and over crowded houses, fol
in England whore it had dissp-
peared these conditions certainl,
existed. The speaker referred
to the poor way of living OF Ha
waiians, both in housing and il
food, as favorable to the propa
CATION OF the disease.
DR.. Russell said leprosy hat
been treated for four thousanC
years without anyremedy worthy
of the name having been dlscov-
cred. For the most part the
experimentation with the disease
b ad been empirical. The grea

The special session of the
Legislature will meet on the
18th of June. The most i'm
portant question which will be
treated by the august body of
super wise men is the new
land law. 1t is the intention
OF the government to open up |
to settlers the vast lands now
owned by the government and
it is proposed to dispose of
them on the very easiest and
best terms. The lands which
especially will be offered are of
different natures and suitable
for different purposes. Grazing
and coffee lands, sugar and
fruit lands and lots suitable for
the small farmer or for resi-
dence only will be placed in
market. If the government
succeeds in establishing a land
boom under the suggested
term, it will be entitled to
great credit and a great step
will have been taken in the
line of solving the present
question of hard times" now
staring the whole community
in the face.
But whether the lands to be
offered are to be used for the
cultivation of coffee or the
promotion of guava jelly, one
fact remains; it is necessary for
the prospective settler to pur-
chase an Aermotor and secure
> sufficient water for his
premises.
, We offer the very best anc
most improved style of Aer-
. motors. The numerous patron:
who have tried our Aermotor:
speak in the highest terms o
> the results We have recent,
: placed an Aermotor of thC
latest pattern at Lunalilo Home
: and w. O. Smith, who CAV,
: us the order, has only praise
for it.
5 Since we are talking land
we may as we'll remind eventua
8 settlers, that we sell the Jones
. Lock W/He Fence. This fence
t is used on all ranches of any
$ importance, and we receive
. daily orders for more of them
The washers used in the fence.
which we now offer to ou
patrons are galvanized. Form.
erly they were made of iron an(
did not stand the ravages o
wind and rain very well.' Th'
galvanized washers are imper.
turbable to all climatic in
fluences. The Jones Lock Fenc
, is the best and cheapest fenc'
ever introduced in Hawaii, ant
well worthy Of a trial.

Thornton, sadly. Mrs. Downey was

Halt, friends! Advance one with

In the same low, firm tone, and, obedi-

while the Junior officer went quickly
forward and whispered the mystic word
over the lowered bayonet OF the in
fantry guard. Permitted then to hold
conversation with his visitor, Private
Graham answered the first anxious
question of the major: mo, sir; not
sign of a fire anywhere in the valley.

Just at that moment the call of four
o'clock began.
Only two calls had gone the rounds
since the discovery of Rucke's fate,
and once more now, still dim and indis-
tinct, the post Of No. 5, down in the
low ground to the north was uncov-
cred at the front, for Raymond's troop
had returned. Instinctively the Off
GERS turned away from No. 4 and
walked back nearer the northward
slope as the soldier watch cry came on
from lip to lip. They could just faint
ly distinguish the form of the sentry
well to the westward of the road, well
out of range-small blame to him-of
those stunted brush heaps and the
point where poor Ruckel had been done
to death less than two hours before.

at S8 Green street in the latter part of the
afternoon. The little girl drove the horse
all the way home. After all had got out
of the team Mr.. Lombard stepped behind
thezcarriage and raised the top. AT once
the horse, frightened by the act, dashed
away. At the corner of Cumberland and
High streets the carriage was badly
smashed The horse was caught after
being somewhat cut 1t was fortunate
that the top was not raised while the
party were in the carriage
