THE PROPOSED HOTEL.

We hope that some definite steps
will be taken by the Govern ment in
regard to the proposed Waikiki
Hotel, previously to the departure
Of Minister Cooper on his vacation.
There has hardly been one dissent
ing voice heard in Honolulu in re-
gard to the license petitioned for by
Mr.. Krouse. All classes Of men with
tho exception OF few fanatics be-
longing to the alphabetical societie 8
have prayed for the establishment
OF first class hotel at Waikiki.

The speeches Of Chief Justice
Judd and members OF the Bar in
memoriam OF the late Joseph Nawshi
were stamped with that lack OF tact
for which the Chief Justice is espe-
cially noted. With the exception OF
Mr.. l.. A. Thurston none of the
speakers paid a proper tribute to

II is something new to be told
that a hotel will tend TO injure
property in it's vicinity. In other
places of the world where towns and
lands are being doomed, hotels,
saloons, churches, schools and jails
are the FIRST institutions established.
Thereafter it is plan sailing and the
town and country are built up.
That Honolulu needs hotel at
Waikiki cannot be disputed. The
question now is whether we shall
follow in the SLOUGH of old days and
put off to some future date what
could be done to-day and ought to
have been accomplished years ago
The next Legislature will undoubt-
eddy attend to the matter if nothing
is done by the Executive nov. But
then it may probably be too late to
secure the proper site and the prop
or man. II Minister Cooper leaves
without any final decision being ar
rived at by the Cabinet the responsi-
bility for failure to attract tourists
will fall ON the heads Of our best
Government Let license for the
Waikiki Hotel be granted without
further delay.

their political differences, and the
Chief Justice said that Nawahi, al
though leader Of his countrymen,
did not have the constructive mind
to enable him to make the best use
OF such an advantage. What the
@. j. meant was that Nawahi was
too much of a man to be led by the
nose by Mr.. Judd aud his clan. II
Kalua, Kauhane, Iosepa, or some
other sycophant had been the OBJ
ject OF the learned Doctors address

true love for their country and their

toms fair and honest tribute to the
man, who Of late years stood politi-
cally opposed to him and his party,
will be remembered by the Hawai-
ians, and will be entered on their
great book OF reckoning to his credit.
On our outside pages will be found
to-day some very pertinent remarks
in regard to the efficient labors OF
the Sisterhoods Of holy women who
devote their lives to the care of the
sick and the poor all over the world.
In this connection, although Father
Yorke aud Barry may be regarded
by some as sectarians, we do not re-
gard these noble women OF all creeds
OF religion as sectarians. We ac-
knowledge them as Catholics in the
universally of their charity. Their
flowing bounty of love and good
deeds fears no niggard pause and is
not damned or stemmed by the
bigotry OF creeds. Where danger
and death, sickness and foul disease,
poverty in all its wretchedness and
Satanic crime dwells, there these
noble women are almost omnipres-
ent. Hawaii-nei owes them an es-
pecial debt of gratitude. If to the
Roman Catholic Sisterhoods Tie
greater credit must be given to
them for their assistance TO our un-
fortunate brethren at tho Leper
Settlement through special circum-
stances and aptitudes, none the less
is credit due to the ladies OF other
and antagonistic creeds who in their
own quiet way have wrought so
much good in our country. As IL is
not possible for all to help the
lepers, the many other fields of
human distress and ignorance are
nobly covered by different societies
OF braye and aid-givipg women. We
cannot all be celibates, as Natures
economy forbids this. And outside
Of the self-sacrificing women who
imprson their bodies for the sake
OF their souls, remains the still af-
fectionate class who, while accepting
Natures responsibilities, lend labors
to the improvement OF humanity.

To Clean White Rugs.

There are two methods of cleansing
white goatskin tugs. If nopvery much
soiled, wet soft cloth with naphtha
and rub the hair vigorously, doing q
small portion at time; then hang the
rug upon the line in the open air, that
the odor may disappear. Do this work
in the daylight and have no fire in the
room while using the naphtha. If it is
necessary to wash the rug, choose a
cool, windy day for the purpose. Throw
half pint of household ammonia into
a tub containing about four gallons of
water. Place the rug in the tub and al
low it to remain there about 30 minutes;
shake thoroughly in the water, rinse
carefully in lukewarm water and hang
in the shade in the open air. When dry
it will be found very stiff, but may be
softened by hard rubbing and combing
with the fingers.-St. Louis Republic.

Our Occupatlo,ns.

Every rightful occupation has its
just compensation to the industrious
worker in the shape of well-earned
money; it has also its own peculiar
service of welfare to the community;
but beyond both these it exerts a
reactive influence for good upon the
life and character of every faithful
toiler. 1t has the power of developing
every faculty of the mind, every fine
moral quality. Energy, courage, forth
tude, patience, perseverance, calm
ness, disinterestedness, magnanimisy,
fidelity. may all be unfolded, expanded
and strengthened through our daily
ordinary labor.-N. Y. Ledger.

Saving Feed.

No matter how cheap feed may be,
1t is still cheaper to keep a COW warm
with board than with an ear of corn.
The shrinkage of milk in the winter is
not entirely due to the absence of sue
culent feed, but it is partly owing to
the COW having to use. part of her food
to keep herself warm. And while q
healthy COW may stand good deal of
cold weather without seeming to
suffer to any great extent, yet ct the
same time her digestive apparatus
is only capable of SO much
work, and if large part of the
work must be to keep herself warm
there remains consequently much
smaller part to manufacture milk. A
horse may have strength to carry a
light load a certain distance every day,
and If the load is increased he carries
more weight, but can not carry it SD
far. He does the same amount of work
in each case, but when his load is in
creased he loses in distance what he
gains in weight. 1t is just the same
with the COW. She has certain
amount of digestive strength, and if
she has to use part of it to keep herself
warm she most certainly has not SO
much with which to make milk

In cases of sore throat in the horse
the above-named authority does not
believe in blistering. He considers
that it does more harm than good and
adds to the pain and discomfort of the
horse. He would never administer
fluid drenches, as that necessitates
raising the animals head. This is likely

to produce coughing, which increases
the irritation. Immediate suffocation

lungs might be set up by
medicated fluids passing down

an electuary-such as powdered
boracic acid mixed with treacle. With
this he smears the tongue and teeth

spread it further and possibly swallow
a portion of the mixture. BY no
means should the sick horse be tied
up in a stall. The head should be
free and the patient should be turned
