The claim adiuster of the Southern
Pacific Company says that. last spring
he received every day about, thirty
five complaints of injuries caused by the
electric-cars, and now he receives only ten
day. From this he infers that people
will soon get used TO the ears and quit
complaining, and the inference is not
illogical. If ten people are knocked over
every day it won't be long before the town
is silenced.

In the Rcpie7o Of Rcpie5oS recently
cholera was mentioned a number of
times in an account of diptheria
and other infectious diseases. Some
of the expressions i'll this article will
have a strong tendency to allay fear
and apprehension here. Those who
are acquainted with cholera from
study or observation of it have no
horror of the malady. Cholera is
a disease whose actual ravages and
possible dangers dwindle into
insignifcance in comparison with so
ever. present and frightful a scourge
as diptheria. Happily stalwart
measures of quarantine, isolation,
water-supply publication and the
like, have driven the cholera back
to oriental confines where such adj
ministrative precautions are nom
existent. While smallpox
has never been suppressed beyond
the possibility of its temperance,
with occasional threat of epidemic
virulence, there is today very little
fear of it in highly civilized coun-
tries. Aged men and women re-
member we'll how fearful and inn
minent a scourge the smallpox
was in their youth. Nowadays, in
the homes of well-to-do (cleanlyp)
people, smallpox is regarded as
practically an extinct malady."

WHILE it is true that the Gov
eminent wash house is an eyesore
and perhaps a common nuisance,
the general supposition that The
establishment is all especial menace
to health, is scarcely correct.
Water is boiled there and carries
plenty of alkalo'd into the stream.
However, the house should have
disappeared long ago. Two other
locations are mentioned. One is in
Iwilei. The other is Kakaako.
The first is objected to by the Chi
nese on account of its distance from
town. The second would present
the wash house to the first view Of
visitors. If Kakaako seems better
a building could be provided that
would please rather than offend the
artistic eye. The Kakaako land
scape is open to improvement.

In the corner, softly rocking,
With her knitting, grandma sat;
At her feet before the fender
Purred the household tabby cat;
Soft and CHEEKY glOwed the freight,
Rejecting on the polished tongs,
As grandma piled her needles nimbly,
And crooned this tenderest of songs:
"Ye banks and braes o. bonny Doom,
How can we bloom sac fresh and fair
How can ye chant, ye little birds,
And sac weary. flu o. carer
There beside her on hassock
Sat her darling golden head.
Little Mabel, with her dolly,
Nearly ready for her bed.
Through the thoughts of that wee maiden
Rang the notes of that old tune,
And between her childish fancies
Swept its dreamy, tender rune;
aye banks and brles o. bonny Doom.
How can ye bloom sac fresh and fairf
How can ye chant, ye little birds,
And | sac weary, flu % carer"
To grandma's lap climbed little Mabel.
List'ning to her grandma's song,
And the freight danced upon them
AS they sat It's rays among.
And by and by the golden tresses
Lay damp and soft on grandma's dress,
While the eyelids softly dropping
In slumber sweetdid lightly press:
'Ye banks and braes o. bonny doom,
How can ye bloom sac fresh and fairf
How can ye chant, ye little birds,
And sac weary, fu' o. carer"

While slower, slower moved her chair,

PUNcTuALTY.-I owe everything in
the world to being always quarter Of |
an hour beforehand. -L Lord Nelson.
What a lot of sorrow and
misery would have been saved
if Lord Nelson's practice had
been carried out in Honolulu;
had the disease breeding place
known as Kapuukolo and the
Nuuanu stream both been look
ed after by the authorities
some months ago, we might
have been spared the present
visitation. We have always
boosted of our climatic condi-
tions, depending on the winds
to sweep disease into the sea.
Up to a few weeks ago, the
Trades did their work nobly,
but we now find that it requires
more than a breeze to disinfect
a tainted atmosphere. Every
man, woman and child who has
crossed the King street bridge
at low tide will recall a very
unpleasant odor; an odor that
seemed to impregnate every
thing in the vicinity. None
would admit that such a condi-
ton was beneficial to the health
of the community, but nothing
was done. We depended on
the winds and a water-fow
from the mountains to accom-
plish what man neglected and
we let it 60 at that. 1t is now
proposed to do something in
regard to the Nuuanu stream.
One man wanted to disinfect
it, another thought if it was
walled in, danger would be re-
duced to a minimum. The
latest scheme is to divert the
course in the direction of Iwi-
lei. An engineer says the
latter idea is not a good one for
the reason that the water could
be made to run over the course
proposed on account of the bed
of the stream being very low.
Another objection has been
made by some bright mind.
Mr.. Bright Mind states that
the fresh water from the stream
flows out into the ocean. This
is not news, but the same man
goes farther and claims that
the said fresh water prevents
the formation of coral at the
entrance to the harbor. He
does not state how the fresh
water drops to the bottom and
then flows out. Perhaps he
has it all figured out in his own
brilliant mind and we must be
satisfied if he does not take us
into his confidence.
We have plan to purify
the stream. 1t is both good
and inexpensive. We have in
stock a number of Roberts
Ozonators, a handy little ma
chine that can be fastened any
where. 1t is made in compact

AT Wooster Square and for the Children
Too--A Citizens Appeal.
To the Editor Of tho JOURNAL AND COURIER:
And why remove the posts at the en-
trance to Wooster Square? To accom-
MEDIATE baby carriages is the only
reason given In the case. Now, for
one, and plenty more who pay taxes
for property about Wooster Square will
endorse our plea, enter our earnest pro-
test against the removal of the posts,
There is no need OF it in the first place
for there is plenty of room for the baby
carriages. No one has yet proposed re-
moving the posts at the entrance to
the old green except at the pump, where
the whole city congregates on account of
the stopping Of so many electric street
car lines there. Wooster Square is as
it is now, beautiful and tolerably
quiet spot. Pedestrians certainly do
not object to the posts. One great
beauty of the new green has been it's
secluslon and privacy, but this is rap
idly passing away and the children and
little tots who frequent this green are
in danger of being driven from this
pleasant spot, if it Is to be overrun by
all kinds of people, including tramps,
who seem of late to favor this spot ex-
ceedingly, much to the regret and alarm
of many anxious mothers. Let the
children have a safe and quiet spot in
the city where they may have their little
sports and innocent games and not be
| subject to annoyance and danger. Tax
payers on large amounts of property
ought to have some voice as to the
parks. Columbus discovered America
| but we doubt if he would discover any
resemblance to himself in the patriotic
statue which stands on the park. AND
over our public squares?
| AS to the baby carriages there are
| dozens on the new green every nice
| day. The posts are no Interference.
