An ADVERTISER reporter met him
on the Australia yesterday morn

appetite writing out the Australia's
bills of fare for the round trip of
the steamer. "Things seem to

James, "if the menus are written,

was Passed.
Section requiring "that the
| money borrowed shall be payable on
demand with interest not exceeding
six per cent. per annum in United
| States gold" stirred considera ole dis
cussiOn. President Wilder asked why
silver might not be borrowed and gold
demanded by the money lender Min
| lister Damon said the section might ne
| amended so as to provide that the
| money should be repayable in the
same coin.
Minister Damon also remarked that
in the Finance Department it was
necessary to tell the whole story.
There could be nothing hidden under
the cloak of diplomacy. A year ago
there was a surplus but circumstances
over which the country had no control
bad depleted that surplus. This
measure was asked in order that there
should be money provided to meet un-
usual expenses. SIT is singular
thing that the more civilized a coun-
try becomes, the greater the eXpendi-
ture and the greater the taxes" If
there any way in which the Minister
of Finance could be more closely
hedged Mr.. Damon was willing that
it should be done, but he believed the
Legislature should take its share of
the sponsibility and not put the
Executive in a position where it be-
came necessary for the individual
members to pledge their personal Sc
curity.
Minister Cooper offered the follow
ing substitute for section which was
carried. "Ihe moneys borrowed by
the authority of this Act shall be re-
payable by the Minister of Finance
upon his tender of the same, together
with interest not exceeding per cent.
per aunum in United States gold
coin.'
Section 8, which provides that
money cannot be draws under this
act, except against departmental
drafts or oders on the treasury of all
equal amount duly accepted by the
Minister of Finance" passed as read.
Section limiting the act to April
L, 1898, was passed and the bill then
passed the second reading as a whole. |
On motion of Senator Baldwin the
report of commission on the Pali road
was referred to the Public Lands AM |

Minister of the Interior in its cOnsid

The bill for expenses of the commits
sion, $50, was referred to the Com

Rep. Robertson reported for the
Judiciary committee as follows:

the retention of the Circuit Court
term at that town, hereby report, re-
commenting the petition be laid up

the subject.
Rep Richards reported for the
Printing committee that the joint re
port on Great and Department seals
had been printed and were ready for
distribution.
I Rep. Hanuna introduced resolu-
(tion to the effect that the secretary be
instructed to furnish each member of
the House with twelve postage STANG ps
a month with the necessary sticking
material on the side to be applied to
letters or other mail matter In plain
language the iutroducer of the re>olu.
tiOn explained that twelve twO-cent
stamps was all that was wanted. One
or five cent stamps were not in it.
Rep. Bond moved that the resolution
be laid on the table.
There was ripple of light laughter
throughout the House and then Rep.
Kamauoha jumped to his feet. All
eager for the fray and ready to fight
for twenty-fOur cents a month, not on
account of largeness Of the sum, but
as matter of principle. Ink, pens
and stationery had been furnished
members Stamps were right along
in the same line. Very often mem
bers wished to confer with their con-
stifuents When matters of impor-
taDce to them were being transacted
in Honolulu it was no more than
proper that they should be informed
of such. Stamps for this purpose
should not be bought with money
from the pockets of the Represen
tatives.
The motion to lay the resolution on
the table was lost and the motion to
adopt was easily carried.
Unless some of the mem bers refuse
to accept postage stamps the Secre-
tary will have to furnish 50 36 worth
of stamps every month.
Rep. Robertson moved that the re-
port Of the committee on seals be laid
the day, Wednesday. Carried.
Rep. Kamauoha moved that the
rules be suspended in order to. allow
of his reading a resolution. When
the motion was put a few struggling
hands went up for aud against. The
speaker reprimanded the members for
their mesmerIzed condition and as q
punish ment made them stand up to
show their respective sides. The

A meeting of the Board of

noon. Present: President Smith,

Wayson and Monsarrat.
Regarding the mitigation act
sixty-fve examinations were re-
ported and one addition to the

reports showed everything in good
condition.
Mr. Meyers letter from Molokai
spoke of Mr.. Rhodes, the forester
sent from Honolulu. He was re-
ported as doing good work in the
plans set for him to carry out.
Another letter from Kalaupapa
asked that more of the japanese
bathing medicine be sent to the
unfortunates at that place. The
supply had run out completely
and, since so much confidence was
placed in its healing qualities, it
was thought that supply should
be kept On hand at all times. The
Board instructed the secretary to
send up a supply sufficient to last
six months.
An application from DR.. Dalton,
graduate of the st. Louis Medical
College and physician of many
years experience, was received by
the Board together with good
recommendations.

C. E. Van Horn, manager for

Office yesterday in relation to an
item regarding the Zamloch benefit

went to the Strangers Friend So
ciety, the deficit of $500 having
been donated. Zamloch made a
further donation, as stated in this
paper, of eight dollars. Deducting
these two items and one-half the
adv vertising which proba bly,
am ounted $500 more the Zamloch
share net would be $33.25. The
ADVERTISER stated yesterday that
the Society received in cash only
the $500 donated by Zamloch, no
thing was said about the final rest
ing place OF the $3325. Naturally
the inference to be dra wn was that
Zamloch received it. But he says
he did not and both afternoon
papers agree that he did not. The
ADVERTISER believes he did not
and adds, also that the Society
did not get it. Who did?

Last evening Officer Heating sent a
call for City Physician Pudor to come

accompanied the doctor. In a little room

Smith, who is employed, when he works.
putting in coke. He was in peculiar
condition last night, a sort of stupor
from which it was impossible to rouse
him.
Human nature is peculiar. According
to neighbors, relatives and his wife,
White is bad man, drinks heavily,
spends all the money he earns and beats
and abuses his wife; and she, rather
feeble woman, says she has to provide
everything that is needful for the house.
AS one of the neighbors expressed It,
"White is terrible bad man and he al
most kills his wife," Last night as White
lay there utterly unconscious and the
doctor worked over him, his wife wept
and wrung her hands and took on terri
bly, with anxiety lest anything serious
should all her husband.
| Something did all him, too. In fact
his case is rather an interesting one. Ac-
cocding to the testimony OF his wife and
the neighbors. White was perfectly sober.
split the wood, (which would tend to
prove he was sober) and left the house
at half past five without trace of liquor
about him. At O'Clock he was found by
two men lying on street corner unoon-
scious. 1t WAS there Officer Heating
found him and sent for the city physic-

| White was drunk Monday, Tuesday and
Wednesday,, and despite the overwhelm-
ing evidence that White was sober when
he left the house the DOCTOR was disposed
to doubt 1T.
He decided tine man was suffering from
chronic alcoholic poisoning, and White
was still unconscious at late hour last
night. He has a slight touch of pneumo-
MIA, too. and had he laid in the cold a
little longer, he probably would not have
needed the services of a physician. II
he ever comes out of his stupor he will
probably regret his actions.
