Excellent Casts Prepared by
Sculptor Hutchinson.
Allen Hutchinson, the talented sculp-

Bishop trustees bust of Mrs. Bishop
Those citizens, friends of Mrs. Bishop,
VINO know the difficulties of portrait
ure, with nothing but some unsatis-
factory photographs for guide or mo-
del, will appreciate the excellence of
the likeness which Mr.. Hutchinson has
succeeded in securing. The dignity
and amiability that were so prominent
characteristics in the life and appear
ance of Mrs. Bishop have been most
satisfactorily brought out in this bust.
1t will be on exhibition at the Museum
tomorrow.
Mr.. Hutchinson has also completed
cast from life for the new Annex to
the Museum. 1t is one of a series of
six, designed to perpetuate better than
could any description, old Hawaiian
customs and arts, now passing into

attitude perfect, but the "draisem-

of the skin, the rigidity of the muscles
the hair and the expression of the face
is so startlingly life-like, that one can
hardly imagine he is only looking on

During the session DR.. c. B. Wood
brought up the matter of filtration OF
the drinking, water, illustrating his
talk with a very handsome photograph
of a portion of Hong Kong showing the
high hill back of the city and the filter
beds below.
DR.. Wood stated that the hill was
1858 feet hiso and at the summit were
some of the finest residences in Hong
Kong. The water after passing through
the five filter beds passed around
through a wier and was piped at de-
cline about 200 feet. AT this point it
was forced with the greatest ease by
means of an hydraulic engine to the
top of the hill and the residences there
were never without supply of pure
water.
The doctor is of the opinion the wa
ter from Nuuanu could be piped to the
top of Punchbowl and filtered and piped
down the slope to an engine similar
to the one in Hong Kong, and by il
forced around the city and the top OF
Tantalus He considers that the cost
of operating would be merely nominal
as the engine requires no fuel and
never gets cut of order.
If this could be done, then it would
be but short time until Tantalus
would be dotted with residences Of
people who enjoy cooler atmosphere
than can be had in town or at Waikiki

EDITORS DISAGREE.
Head Men in the Chinese Times
Get Into Trouble.


There was a peck of trouble in the
office of the Chinese Times on King
street yesterday morning, when the ed
itor and sub-editor of that paper got
into an alteration that ended at last
in one blow and a serious one at that.
1t was in the main Office of the Chi
nese Times and the editor and sub-ed-
itor were lounging comfortably with
pigtails swinging gently in the summer
air.
Cheng Vat Kai, the sub-editor, was
talking about his shares in the newspa-
per, and was told by Chang Jan Sing,
the editor, that he must sell these as
soon as possible. Cheng Vat Kai sat
bolt upright and began series of OBJ
jections. His shares were his own, and
he could do with them as he saw fit
This said, both men stood up and
faced each other, with the editor wear
ing an especially menacing look on his
face. Chang Jan Sing, not wishing to
disable his hands for newspaper work,
ran into the back room, grabbed up a
hammer and started for Chen Vat Kai
who, in spite of his efforts to ward of
the blow, received a sumner on the
top of his head. He fell to the ground
with the blood flowing freely from the
wound. He was taken to the Office OF
Dr. McGrew, where the wound was
dressed. Serious results may follow.
Chang Yam Sing was arrested very
soon after the incident and taken tc
the police station, but was released il
the afternoon.
