Electric Light and Healt n.

Electric lighting has made numerous con-
tributions to sanitation. Or. Saunders,
medical officer OF the London board or
health, says that 1t has done much toward
making the employees of commercial and
manufacturing establishments healthier.
Faces that were pale and wan from work
in gas-lighted Easements stores and shops
are much improved since the Introduction
of electricity. The heat from the gas
jets and poor ventilation are responsible
for much sickness. 1t is also shown that

NO BOUNDARY DISPUTE.

Nicaragua and Costa Rica Have No
Cause for Qunrrel
The alleged cable dispatch from Mana gua
Nicaragua, recently published, to the effect
that President Barrios of Guatemala would
arbitrate the boundary dispute between
Nicaragua and Costa Rica, is asccrtained
to be wide of the truth.
There is no question as TO extent OF terri
tory pending between the two countries.
Such a controversy did at one ;ii:ie exist
but it was definitely an. ti.dl'y
settled by President Harrison as ar
bitrator several years ago, and II wenld
be considered in Central America rs an in
suit to the government of the United States
to attempt to reopen it.

BUTCHERS WAGON THERE.

At the gate was a butchers wagon.
This certainly did not look like starving,
and to judge from the liberal chunks of
beef that the group or men who were
gathered around the vendor of meats were
investing in, they were one and all de-
termined to live well over Sunday.
"Miney" Thompson was watching the
proceeding from point OF vantage on
the balcony over the kitchen.
Put n picture OF that wagon in The
Times he called down, land ask them
IL that looks like starvation ranch May
be We don't get enough to eat, but I'm
just waiting up here for my bSeakfast to
digest
Most of the men and boys who gathered
around the butchers wagon appeared to
have plenty OF money with which to
make purchases, and before he left his
wagon was lighter by many pounds. As
"Miney'' said this didn't look much like
starving, but still these men and boys
were much more fortunate than many
others who are quartered at the track.
Jockey Bloss, OF the racing firm of
Butler & Bloss, strolled up and joined in
the conversation.
He volunteered to show his string. The
entire stable was gone through and every
one of his horses was found in A No.
condition.
When the dinner bell rang fully two
dozen men and boys responded to the call.
and after them came a steady stream.
Dick said that they kept coming until
or 8 O'Clock in the afternoon.
HAY FOR THE PONIES.
Some of the nearby farmers have stacks
of hay that have never been baled. While
this is not quite SO easy to handle, it
answers nearly as well as fodder, as the
baled hay is hundreds OF per cent bet
ter than no feed at all.
Mr.. Hill has bought this hay and will
have il carried over to the track the early
part OF this week. Those who are actually
in need of this fodder can get it from him at
very small cost. 1t will not be neces-
ssry, however, for them to have money
to purchase it as he will furnish them with
all they want and wait until such time rs
they are able TO make good for payment.
II they never have the money that Will
be his loss. but the chances are that they
will. all of them, at some time or other, get
hold of enough TO repay him.
While the present weather continues
there is no suffering among the stranded
men from exposure but in case another real
cold spell sets in big firess are TO be built
in the old pool room which. stands just
across from the club house. Here those
who want to keep warm can loaf the

their blankets up at night and sleep there.

II is stated that the Beers, in their battle

Speaking of the coming season genial Gus
schmelz has this TO say: THE scramble for
the pennant in the major league viii he
closer than ever next season, especially
among the teams IN the second division, the
last six. Those teams that brought up the
rear last year have all repa ired their fences,
and this Strengthening OF the timber was
accomplished by Wholesale exchange OF
players, with very few additions in the way
OF Job lots from minor leagues. The St
Louis-Cincinnati exchange VIII prove a bene-
fit to both teams, and those who believe that
Arlie Latham is has been and incapable
ofstrengthening Won der Ahe' German band
VIII find their mistake before next season
is over. McCloskey, OF Louisville, has
enough good material 'joblots and seasoned
players from which to select one of the best
teams that Louisville has ever bad. With
a fair share of luck, the Senators will be
IN the race all through the season. Our rec
ord last year is a striking Illustration OF
how strong factor luck is in baseball.
Just figure on the crippled condition of our
pitching department from the Fourth of
July till the finish OF the season, also the
speaking of pitching reminds the that l

Pittsburg last week. He has friends over

Mercer. While paying them visit several
days ago be passed Mercer's house. Win
was propped up on pillow in his window.
He was in quarantine, and George hurried
up the front steps TO shake hands with the
handsome twirler and congratulate min on
his recovery. Win opened the window and
yelled: For heavens sake, old man. don't
come In here. I'm still in quarantine
And what the deuce does ne mean by quar-
anteen? IN have to lock that up in the

call it,. said George to himself. George
told me that win is as pretty as ever,

WILL NOT RESIGN.
Present immigration Agent Salts
fed to Stay Where He is.

There was great excitement in many
localities yesterday regarding the re-
ported anticipated resignation of ]. d.
McVeigh from his present office of I'm
migration Agent of the Board of Health
which office he has held for a long
time with entire satisfaction to the
Government. The excitement grew out
OF an application for the office handed
in to and read at the Board of Health
meeting Wednesday afternoon.
Various people have been studying
their respective qualifications and i'm
agining themselves commanding a
small sized army of Chinese and Jap
anese, with officers at either hand to
help out in case of emergency; have
been making resolutions to do this and
that when they take Jacks place, and
have done everything but go out to
the quarantine station and wade in.
1t is sad to have to disappoint these
people, but at the same time the true
situation of affairs must be told. ]. D.
McVeigh has no intention Of resigning
his post, and the Board of Health is
perfectly satisfied with his work. The
rumor probably arose from a certain
conversation in which Mr.. McVeigh was
mentioned favorably as resident super
intendent of the leper settlement on
Molokai.

Oahu College Commencement
Thursday Night.
vALEDICTORIAN WON DISTINCTION

Address by Inspector Townsend.
PauahI Hall Well Filled Miss
AxtelI Charms the Audience.

Commencement at Oahu College has
come and gone, and with it have gone
forth into the world, to brave the
storms of life, a graduating class of
seven, composed of Albert Fayerwea-
ther Along, Thomas Huddy Barlow,
William Richards Castle, Jr., Anna Isa-
bella Forbes, Charles Edward Hapai,
Mary E.thelwynn Rice and Clifton How
ard Tracy, the class of 80.
The large audience room in Pauahi
Hall was beautifully decorated with
palms and flowers. Long before the
exercises commenced the room was fill
ed with the relatives and friends of the
graduates, and people interested in the
work of Oahu College.
Shortly after o'clock the graduates
with President Hosmer. Rev. c. NJ.
Hyde, Rev. D. P. Birnie and Inspector
General Townsend, marched into the
room and took places on the platform.
The teachers of Oahu College came in
next and took the front row of chairs,
while President Dole, Hon. A. F. Judd,
Judge Frear, Professor Alexander, W.
r. Castle DR.. Emerson and Frank Da-
mon, constituting the Board of Trustees
OF the College, took the seats of the sec
ond row in the center section.
After a we'll executed voluntary by
Professor Arthur B. ingalls,, Rev. G. M

and laughter was the result.
Next came an able address on the
subject of Purpose" by Henry S.
Townsend, the Inspector General of
Schools. The address was replete with
good advice to the members of the
graduating class and to people in gen
eral Mr.. Townsend spoke as follows:
''It is both interesting and instructive
to look for the reasons why the world
offers some men permanent honors
which it denies to others of greater
ability, who have made themselves
more deeply felt by their contempora-
ries and who have left deeper impress
sion upon the history of the race.
ITO come at once to a concrete il
lustration, the educational world cele-
brated the 18th day of last January as
a day notable in the annals of educa-
tion-the one hundred and fiftieth an
niVersary of the birth of Pestalozzi. Now
the celebration of a birthday is dis
tinctly personal honor; and when a
body of men celebrate the birth of
man long after his death it is evident
that it is their deliberate and perma-
nent judgment that his is worthy of
special honor
Why, then, do men honor PesCaIIoz-
III? The history which we find upon
tombstones is proverbially unreliable;
but if we look upon the monuments
which men erect to their heroes we
shall get true view of their ideals.
Let US look, then, upon the monument
