CHOLERA AT INSANE ASYLUM.
Native Drinks Taro Patch Water
Dies From the Effect.

The last case OF cholera proved
beyond q doubt the existence Of in
fiction in the tsro patches near the
Insane Asylum. Paahao, s native.
fifty-three years Of age and an in
mate Of the Insane Asylum, was
taken sick st 5 80 p. N. Friday.
Dr.. Herbert was summoned and
found that the man had taken q
drink Of water from the taro patch
in which he and other inmates Of
the Asylum had been working dur
ing the cary part Of the day. No
symptoms OF eholers could be dis
covered. The man had been vom-
iting but that wss nothing unusual
under the circumstances. Another
summons 10 the effect that Psshso
was much worse reached Dr.. Her
bert about 9 so o'clock Saturday
morning. Examination proved
that the msn had developed
S clear case Of cholera. He
was removed to the hospital
where the physicians in charge
concurred in the decision Of Dr..
Herbert regarding the case. Pas
hao died st s 20 .. N. of the same
day. Both Of the latest cases have
succumbed to the rsvages Of the
disease. Psipa, the old native
woman from kikihale. died Friday
night ST l0:40 O'Clock. Stringent
measures regarding water nesr the
Insane Asylum, have been taken
oy tie Board Of Health. The taro
patches will be destroyed and the
water drained of.

was by putting up ten-foot fence
from The ses 10 the rapids--on both
sides OF the stream. Barbed wire
couId be placed along the top. Inc
fence could be made to include tr.e
nonds near the stream, which IL WAS
nroposed TO fill in. King street bridge
should be removed and s pontool put
in its place, while the steam dredge
wss digging up the bed OF the stream
nesr the mouth.
Marshal Brown said that people hsd
been given instructions to lesve their
homes Monday morning. Some had
left already. He thought the twelve
guards along Nuuanu stream could
prevent natives from fishing. he
didn't believe there was sny fishing
going on.
President Dole said that while
walking along the road in the vicin-
ity of the old fishmarket he had come
upou sn old native woman, who, TO
all appearances, was in the act OF fish
ing. There were no guards in the i'm
mediate locality. As soon IS she saw
him coming she pulled in her nod and
disappeared into the house.
II. Waterhouse thought Mr.. Mars
den's plan the best one that hsd been
so fsr proposed. 1t was almost an
impossibility 10 stop the natives from
fishing in any other way.
President Dole said he concurred in
Mr.. Narsden's ides OF dredging out
Nuusnu stream near its mouth.
W. f. Rowell said that the work
would require about four months, on
account OF the narrowness Of the
stream. The dredge required width
OF seventy-five feet in which to work.
He thought s barbed wire instead of 3
board fence could be used. This
would not cost so much.
DR.. Rodgers thought s. military
guard should be placed on Nuusnu
stream. This was the only sure way
Of guarding. This seemed TO be the
opinion Of several Others st the meet
ing.
T. +. Lansing thought the buildings
should be cleared away from the in
fected districts ST once.

The number of women in this country
who are studying law is much larger
than most people would suppose. On
Tuesday last the University of New York
sent out ten women graduates from its
law department, the largest class of the
kind ever graduated in the world.
Some of these young women made very
fine records in their legal studies. Some
of them, we are told, are born lawyers
and would make their mark at any bar
in the country.
But the bar is not to receive the benefit
of all this array of genius. Three of
these graduates admit that they are en-
gagged to be married aud several of the
others are under suspicion on that sc re.
How man would feel with lawyer
for wife we can not imagine, but
great many men need legal advice fire.

have no doubt that some of these women
lawyers will make excellent wives, and if
they should all get good husbands they
would be far more fortunate than if they
should win fame and fortune in the
courts or on the bench.

Adve: s'TTIsement writing.

A new business or profession has
grown up recently. 1t is that Of writing
advertisements for the newspaper and
periodical press. cad. smiths they are
often called in New York, where they
chiefly flourish and abound, and some
of their products have the appearance
of having been forged with a hammer
and cut off with a cold chiseL
The essentials Of a good advertise
ment are brevity, simplicity and truth.
That which the advertiser desires to sell
and the location of his business should
be given the most prominence, and it is
a good idea to quote prices. As rule
minute descriptions of goods advertised
are unnecessary. The retail buyer espe-
cially is not familiar with technical
trade terms.
The trouble with some Of the SO called
"ad. smiths is a tendency to exploit
themselves rather than the goods they
advertise. Usually the best results of
advertising are secured when the adver-
tiser leaves the question Of space and
matter to the editor or business mana
ger of the medium he is to use, for they
are interested with him in securing the
best results.

The father had objected to the match
because Mr.. Bush is politician. A few
mornings ago he heard his daughter
arise at about 8 o'clock, and thinking
mischief was brewing he hastily dressed
and got down stairs just in time to see
the lovers drive away. The father seized
a shotgun, mounted a horse and pur-
sued the couple, but they were too swift
for the old gentleman. They stopped
long enough at Stomer for Parson Evans
to pronounce the ceremony, and then
pushed on to Adams just in time to

THE LAST PENSIONER.
Death Closes the Roll of Revolutionary
Pensioners.
from the Atlanta Constitution.


From the Atlanta Constitution.
The roll of revolutionary pensioners
was closed last week by the death of Mrs.
Mary Brown, of Knoxville, Tenn, at the
age of ninety-one years.
Mrs. Brown has drawn revolutionary
pension of $12 per month for many years
because she was the widow OF Joseph
Brown, a soldier in the war of independ-
ence. In 1924, when the pensioner was
twenty years old, she married Brown,
who was probably very old man. 1t is
announced that Mrs. Brown was the last
of the revolutionary pensioners. Her
death emphasizes the fact that this is
still very young country. She was
woman of our day, and yet she had been
the wife and companion of veteran who
had shouldered the musket in the great
struggle of 1776.
The old soldiers of the last century
were sturdy fellows, and many of them
ngered here until they were almost in
sight of our civil war. Naturally some
of their widows remained here many
wears later. A soldier who came out of
the revolution of 1888 at the age of TWEEN
ty would have been seventy years old in
1888, and if he had then married girl of
sixteen she would, if living now, be sew
enty eight, which is not such very old
age, after all. With these figures before
us, it is a matter of surprise that there
are not more revolutionary widows
among US.
Taking the case of Mrs. Brown as a
basis, it is safe to predict that some of
the widows of the soldiers of our civil
war will be drawing pensions as far in
the future as the year 1885 or possibly
1000.

This is From Nebraska.

There are twin brothers IN the jail a.
Lincoln, Neb. One Of them is gailty of
forgery, while the other is innocent of
the crime or any connection with it. The
authorities do not know which is the
guilty brother and which is the innocent,
and the brothers refuse to thrown any
light upon the situation. Each declares
that he is the person who was sentenced.
Under the circumstances the governor
has been asked to pardon the guilty one,
in order they may both be discharged.
If the crime was murder and the sentence
was death, would the authorities be JUS
tilted in hanging both of the brothers
if one persisted in his efforts to shield
the other?
