SOCIETY NOTES.
Some of the Events That Took
Place Last Week.


Society took a slight brace last week,
but the hot weather seems TO be get
ting in it's deadly work slowly and
surely. The events of last week were
confined almost entirely to dinners.
Speaking of the hot weather, a prom
inent society lady said yesterday that
she thought it would be good plan
if all the society ladies of Honolulu
would make all their calls now, and
for the remainder of the scorching
days remain in the quiet seclusion of
their own homes, having to think
nothing about anything but holokus
At z o'clock this evening the chill
dren of Mrs. Gums dancing school,
who have been taking lessons for a
number of weeks, will give an exhibit
ton in fancy dancing in Arion hall,
back Of the Opera House. There will
be a fancy drill before the dancing,
and after that there will be six or eight
fancy dances, including the hornpipe,
Spanish and others. The children will
dance until o'clock, when the floor
will be cleared and the Quintette Club
will play music for the grown people
to dance by. Those who intend going
would do we'll by arriving early, as a
large number of tickets have been sold.
Mrs. Avery will leave for Samoa on
the Alameda of June Sd. She has re-
manned here longer than she at first
expected. This is no small compliment
to Honolulu.
Mrs. J. s. Walker entertained Mrs.
VIM. G.. Irwin at dinner in her new
home, King street. yesterday.
The Gay party will return to their
home on Kauai today.
Mrs. H. M. Won Holt returned from

cued by Captain Renken of the Mount
ed Patrol She is very much bruised,
but fortunately received no more seri-
Gus injuries.

New Mob Hill

j. M. Vivas stated last night that
six of his Makiki lots have already
been disposed of to parties. who will
at once improve the property by the
erection of beautiful residences. This
is today the most desirable property in
town for persons who desire to build.
or for speculative purposes. 1t is a
question if values have increased any
where so rapidly as in this particular
locality.

r.. B. HALE's CANDIDACY.

The Office OF county school commits
sioner is very important one and it's
affairs and the supervision of our
school system should De in competent
and experienced hands.
Mr.. Hale has made splendid record
during his first term and the exper-
fence he has gained and knowledge of
what is needed to make the work more
successful will better qualify him for a
second term to which he should be
elected. He has succeeded In getting
libraries into many schools and the
pupils that have graduated from the
eighth grade in district schools under
his examination have been able to go
into any high or graded school OF the
county and enter with the ninth grade
and do the work we'll, something that
has not been done heretofore. Another
point in favor of Mr.. Hale is that he
devotes all his time TO the office, NOV
ing TO Ionia the better to enable him
to do more effective work. He fur
nishes examination questions to all of
the grades In the district schools. His
election will mean saving of money
to the county.

THE TROUBLE IN CRETE.

The revolt of the Christian inhabi-
tants in Crete against the tyrany and
opposition of Mohamedan rule just
now forms one of the leading subjects
of press comment throughout the world.
Crete is an island about 100 miles in
length lying about $50 miles to the
south of Athens in the Mediterranean
sea. 1t contains population of some
of whom are Christians and the re-
mainder Mohamedans. They are
principally OF Grecian descent and
geographically should belong to
Greece. The Turks have held posses
sion OF the island, however, for the
last three hundred years, nearly. The
Turkish yoke and have several times
been in revolt. There was an uprising
In April last, and in July the Porte
promised to appoint Christian gov
ernor and one was nominated but has
not been inaugurated. This fact to-
gether with the total failure of the
Turkish government to put into effect
certain reforms which it promised
twenty years ago Is the cause OF the
present Instruction. The revolution
lists demand that faith be kept with
them In these matters, and have re.
sorted TO arms to enforce their rights
and the fulfillment of these pledges,
Greece Immediately took up the cause
of the Cretan patriots against the Sui
tan and sent troops, accompanied by
Prince George himself TO the seat of
disturbance. European nations desir-
Gus of maintaining the stutus quo OF
the Turkish Empire are endeavoring
to end the strife without further resort
TO arms. Should Greece persist in
lending armed assistance to the Cretan
Christians it is liable to lead to a gen.
eral European war. 1t is thought by
some students of the situation that
Prince George would not be averse to
such result, with the hope that In
the final settlement the famous island
might be added to his domain.

THE SALARY is NIGaARDLY.

The proposition to increase the sal
airy OF the attorney general OF the state
of Michigan to $500 per year, and
make 1t obligatory upon that official to
reside at Lansing and attend to the
duties of the Office In person, will be
submitted to the people OF Michigan in
the form of an amendment TO the con-
stitution. The question In no sense OF
the word is partisan; it's a plain bus
mess proposition and one that pertains
only to the best interest Of the state.
The state legislature, irrespective OF
politics, and by practically unanimous
vote, decided to submit this question
to the people, believing IL To be in the
public interest. Ex-Gov. Rich In an
official address stated that the money
paid other attorneys every year would
far more than pay good attorney to
do the work. Gov. Pingree has given
this his emphatic endorsement, and In
his remarks stated that without any
question the state has lost hundreds Of
thousands OF dollars by reason OF not
paying good attorney a salary that
would enable him to live at Lansing
and give the duties of the position his
personal attention.
The attorney general now receives
the munificent sum of $500 per year,
the same as ianitors and pages about
the Capitol. It's disgrace to great
state like Michigan, with large inter-
ests often involved and correct legal
dvicc in constant demand, to pay such
a niggardly salary. No lawyer OF any
consequence can afford to take the
Office for such compensation, do the
work required, and neglect his private
business. In the past, incumbents OF
this Office have attended TO their own
business, and only looked after state
affairs when it did not conflict with
their private practice. For this rea-
son the interests OF the state have
suffered. With conscientious regard
for the duties Of the Office Attorney
General Maynard has remained at his
post of duty, neglecting his private
business as few attorneys would do, or
could afford to do, and the legal de-
partment OF the state was never more
faithfully and economically looked
after. With respectable salary, and
making 1t compulsory for the attorney
general to reside at Lansing, the state
will continue TO have it's affairs looked
after by competent official.
The salary Of this officer in Michi.
gan was fixed fifty years ago when all
was comparative wilderness, when
about the only duty it imposed was to
accept the honor conferred and draw
the yearly salary. Conditions have
greatly changed since then and the
Office demands the service OF an honest,
competent, experienced official.
