a PRINTERS BLUNDER.

Honolulu's political Bishop has had
a sad joke played upon him. OF course
it is the irrepressible printer that is
in fault, and the good Bishops proof
reader must have missed the word
In an article in the Diocesan Maya
zine in which the Bishop dances on
the Y. NJ. c. A. and the Countess
Wachtmeister with equal joy and grace,
for the Bishop is a graceful dancer, he
says:
1T is not three years since the Con-
gregationalist body published through
out Inc length and breadth of the Unit
ed States that the overthrow of the
monarchy had been rendered absolute
ly necessary in order to save the Chris
tianity planted by the missionary faith
ers from being swept away by the re-
turning tide of the old Hawaiian Pa
ganism.
THAT this was pure fiction is we'll
known"
Now it is very evident that the wor-
thy prelate wrote this lis" pure fic-
ton. The paragraph concluding with
the words Hawaiian Paganism" is
pure fiction and we quite agree with
what the Bishop meant to say.
But this is only one more instance of
the malevolence of that demon of a
compositor, that descendant of the man
who produced "See the poor martyr
with his shirt on fire" 1t is bad
enough that the poet should suffer from
the mad pranks of the comp, and it is
only the deserved fate of the journalist
but when he lays his unholy fingers
upon the copy of direct successor of
st. Peter, it is really time to see if
something cannot be done to stop him
in his sacreligious course. In Eng
land they used to say that until a
Bishop was killed the railway COM
panies would take no trouble over their
railway accidents. and up to this we
have looked upon the vagaries of the
comp with lenient not to say a
twinkling eye. But all our compass
sion is gone; post him in the deepest
dungeon of the Castle Moat: try some
thing pleasant with boiling OIL as
the Mikado says. Stay, we have it, a
more dread punishment STILL Let him
be taken to hear one of the good Bish-
ops sermons. Poor fellow!

ADAPrABILITY OF CELEsTIALs.

Who says the Celestial is not adapt
able? 1t is the preconceived notion OF
the outer barbarian or foreign devil
that he is not The stock stories all
tend to show that he is very unadapt-
able, and as a rule the stock stories
are based on facts
But there is a generation of Celestial
here which certainly is adapting it
self to Western methods, and oddly
enough it is to be noticed in a game,
viz, baseball Centuries of use have
made the Chinese shoulder peculiarly
unadapted to throw ball in the man.
ner of the Western boy. Yet if anyone
will watch the game of baseball played
daily by the children of the Chinese
school on the corner of Fort and Bere-
tania streets he will see that the young
Celestial pitcher has quite overcome
his hereditary tendencies and pitches
his ball in approved Yankee fashion.
And this makes one think that if the
inherited physical characteristics are
overcome, so may be the mental char
acteristics. The mental attitude of any
Asiatic is entirely different from our
own. Their ethics are not our ethics,
their morals are not our morals, nor
are the standards of right and wrong
the same as ours. 1t is next to impos-
sible for an American or a European
to view any matter from a Chinese
standpoint. 1t is just as impossible for
a Chinese to view matters from a Eu-
ropean standpoint We can readily I'M
derstand the mental attitude of Ger
man, a Frenchman or "a Russian, but
dealing with the Eastern we are at a
loss.
The work done among the young Chi
nese of this city, commenced by Mr..
F. W. Damon, and now continued I'M
der the Government, is likely to give
some Chinese whose minds. trained
entirely on Western methods, may gain
thorough assimilarity with Western
methods of thought. If the arm has
learned to pitch a ball properly, per,
chance the brain has acquired the
tinge of Western thought

AN ADVANCE IN SURGERY.

France, whose physicians are ever
wide awake and progressive, has adopt
ed new method of treatment by which
a large portion of the injured limbs
now amputated can be saved. DR..
Reclus, who is the inventor of the
pl ocess, says that whatever the extent
or gravity of the LESSONS, he never, I'M
der any circumstances, amputates the
limb, but merely wraps it in antiseptic
substances by a veritable embalming
process, leaving nature to separate the
dead from the living tissues.
This method preserves for the pa
tent much larger part than would be
left after amputation. He also freely
uses hot water. Before embalming"
the limb, jet of hot water 40 degrees
to LA degrees Fahrenheit is made to
irrigate all parts of the wound, thor
oughly cleansing it. He claims that
the advantages of hot water are, first,
it is antiseptic, heat increases the po-
tency of antiseptic substances; sec
ond, it shameless the flow of blood; third,
it helps to compensate for the loss OF
heat caused by the bleeding. After the
dead tissue has separated from the
living, the matter of dividing the bone
is a small matter for the surgeon.
Our doctors here may have adopted
this method 1t certainly .commends
itself to the mind of the layman. 1t is
gentle in its treatment and does away
with the CORY unpleasantness of the
operating table and the glittering ar
ray of angry knives and nippers. The
method is not down among the "sched-
ule rates." but from its simplicity i;
will probably. like Mr.. Wegg's poetry
come high"

mounted patrol, but few cycles would
come in very handy some day or night
when a patrolman was not available.
Moreover, when a patrolman is sent
anywhere in a hurry the clang of his
horses hoofs pounding on the road
gives ample notice of his approach,
while bicycle would bear the police
man silently to the spot he might be
required in, before the evil-doers real
lied that the guardian of the law was
at hand.
1t is marvellous how popular cycling
has become away from here. There is
statement in an exchange that on a
Sunday in New York thirty thousand
were awheel on the boulevard. :"
The fashion has been growing in Eng
land till it has become a perfect craze.
The Thames, which at this season only
short year ago was alive with steam
launches, while the banks were lined
with punts, is now practically desert
ed and the former river marines can be
seen careering over the country on
their wheels.
Here the bicycle is still in its infan-
cy. Though go-ahead enough in some
things, there is a tendency to conser-
vatism in others There are still a
number of antidiluvians who don't
thing it correct for woman to ride a
bicycle Their position is analogous to
the savage who, having gone naked all
his life, looks with horror upon the
innovation of a shirt and trousers,
which his descendants have been in
duced to wear. These antidiluvians
had no objection to a lady sitting
astride of a horse, but to sit astride of
a bicycle is quite another thing. They
forget that sitting astride of horse
was in its day every bit as far ahead of
the days of billions as the bicycle is
ahead of their views. The day will
come when a bicycle will be as neces-
sary part of woman's equipment as
parasol or cloak.
