The subjects are all secular and
quite varied, ranging from Califor-
MIA, through Tennyson to ancient,
medieval and modern surgery.
This is a decided step in the right
direction. We need the mental
stimulus of the lecture. The plat
form disseminates ideas, it makes
men and women think of other
things besides mere business and
private pleasures or griefs. In this,
as in all that it does, the Y. M. c.
A. is fulfilling its mission and is
indicating its right to public sup
port. Ofcourse there is a religious
side, but it is upon the secular side
that we have dwelt. There it GER
tainly works upon the broad plat
form OF doing good and elevating
all who take advantage of the OPP
portunity offered. Honolulu would
be hard put to it if it had to do with
out its Y. NJ. c. A. organization,
and especially its hard working
secretary.

CHINESE NEW YEAR.
Preparations Being Made for a
Big Day at Waianae.

Arrangements are in progress for
the Chinese to hold rousing re-
ception at Waianae on their New
Year. 1t is proposed to run an
excursion to Waianae, with such
inducements that will result in
large numbers of Cinnamon max
ing the trip. The excursionists
will carry fire crackers, bombs and
other combustibles; these will be
exploded on the campus in a grove
Just off the railway line, and it is
safe to say residents in the locality
will be treated to a bombardment
never before heard or witnessed.
The railway company intends
spreading itself on the 18th by ar
ranging entertainments at Remond
Grove, Pearl City, the Peninsular,
Eva and Waianae. Cheap excur-
sion rates will prevail to all points
along the line. Luaus with brass
and string music followed by dam
ces will be among the features
of the day and evening.

DROPPED FROM THE ROLL.
Wedding Out Process in Amer

Wedding Out Process in Amer
lean League Last Night.
A business meeting of the Amer
lean League was held last night.
At that time the wedding out pro-
cess, before mentioned, was car
ried into effect with vengeance,
one hundred being dropped from
the roll of active members. Fifty
more were given one months time
to pay their dues, at the end OF
which time the names of the de-
linquents will be published and
scattered broadcast for the inform
alton of all.
Without the $50 mentioned
there are at present 297 members
in the American League. Five
applications for membership were
read last night. AT the next meet
ing the business of the evening will
be confined to consideration of the
finances of the league in order to
square up all accounts and make a
new start this year.

THE runaway tram on Nuuanu
Avenue, New Years day, should
act as warning to the Tramway
Company. 1t was fortunate that
no lives were lost, but we shall not
get through all accidents as easily.
The cars should be provided with
independent brakes. The brakes
in use 60 to the same bar. As long
as only the chain Of one brake gives
wav the other brake will act, and
an accident can be avoided, but If
the bar gives way, then both brakes
are useless-this was what occurred
on New Years day. Il would also
be well that the brakes should be
examined by government inspec-
tor. 1t is a matter of life and
limb to our citizens and they
should be protected as efficiently
as possible Our remarks are nots
intended to carp at the Tramway
Company, but it is clearly the duty
of the press to issue word of
warning and perhaps save a very
serious accident in the future.

THE Y. NJ. c. A.

In an unobtrusive way the
Young Mems Christian Association
is doing a great deal of good work.
The objective point of the secretary
seems to be to give healthy amuse-
ment to those who are willing to
have it, without regard to creed or
religious faith. The membership
of the institution is 419, but a
number avail themselves of its adj
vantages who are not members.
The reading room is naturally a
great attraction, there are 1923
books now, and the number is con-
stantly increasing. Then there is
good selection of papers and ma
gaines, which enables the readers
to keep up with the current litera-
ture of the day. The fact that the
average daily attendance in the
reading room is 1853, shows that
the advantages are appreciated.
The educational classes are a
comparatively new departure, and
the two which have been COM
menced count SO pupils. This is
the kind of work done in Mechanic
Institutes in England. Many
Young man has laid the foundation
of his future success in life by at
tending such classes
But the gymnasium is probably
the greatest attraction. 1t is fine
building, well equipped and thor
oughly adapted 20 its purpose.
The class attendance for the month
of November was 1865, showing
conclusively that it fills a want in
the community and that the COM
munity responds. The cost of
erecting the gymnasium and max
ing necessary alterations in the
building was $1S,500; of this $4,000
remain to be paid. The debt is
small one and will be easily wiped
out.
In another direction the Y. M.
C. A. proposes to cater to healthy
amusement. Commencing January
4th, a course of eight lectures has
been arranged to run through the
months of January and February.
