Educational Revival.

From present indications, there will
be a genuine revival in educational
matters during the present summer.
There can be no doubt that the teach
ers' school last summer attracted con-
siderable attention among teachers in
the United States. Yesterday Profess
sor Smith and wife of Stanford Uni
versity arrived and will spend the
summer. On July 18th Mrs. Mead,
president of Holyoke College, will ar
rive, and by the next Alameda Profess
sor Brown, of the University of Cali
fornia, and Professor Mead, of the
University of Chicago, will be among
the passengers. These are people of
standing among educators in the Unit
ed States, and their presence in Homo
lulu during the session of the summer
school will add much to the enthu-
siasm of those who attend.
Miss C. D. Mosher, formerly of the
physical culture department at STAN
ford; Miss NJ. de B. Roberts and M
Roberts, students at Stanford, also
came by the Archer yesterday, and will
remain during their vacation.

Mr.. Hutchinson was one of the charter
members of the society, and his de-
parture is greeted with much regret.
He was unanimously voted into the
list of honorary members, the League
being only too happy to retain in that
way one whose talents they cannot
hope to replace. An intaglio head of
Mr.. Hitchcock was presented to the
League by the departing sculptor, and
will be highly valued in the nucleus of
what may some time be a permanent
exhibition.
The dates for the autumn exhibition
are proposed as follows: Pictures to
be sent in November 18th; first view
reception, Monday evening, November
22d; open to the public, November 23d
Notice of proposed amendment to
the constitution was given, making all
membership fees uniform, at the rate
of the present dues of subscription
members.

CoNvj ESCAPES.
But is Captured Again By Natives
in Palolo Valley.

At an early hour yesterday afternoon
Manual Fernandes, Portuguese, tried
and sentenced in Kauai to a short term
in Oahu Jail for assault and battery,
escaped from Guard Gahan's gang
while working on the Waialae road.
The escaped convict ran up into Pa
lolo Valley, where several natives,
catching sight of the striped suit
worn by Fernandes, gave chase,
and captured him. Later on, Captain
Renken and Patrolman Spillner went
up and brought the prisoner to the po-
lice station.
Fernandes had but few days re-
naming to do time During his stay
on the reef he was given the work OF
cooking for the prisoners while out on
the road
Lieutenant Hoh, of the police force
who until recently was guard at Ga,
hu Jail, states that Fernandes was g
good man in every way, but on account
of his peculiar actions at times, be-
lieved him to be slightly "off. " Ger
tainly there seems to be something ii
this theory, since man with but few
days to serve would hardly seek to es-
cape when he knows the penalty for sc
doing is an additional sentence.

John Rodriguez, of Demarara, Brit

boy of the American barkentine Arch

day, found letter awaiting him and

Wray Taylor goes up from Honolulu to

program for four solos. B. L. Marx,
the violinist, will accompany him, and

People who use kerosene oil for light
or fuel will find themselves inconven-
fenced, unless the Iolani, from Boston,
should arrive within a few hours. She
is not due until the latter part of the
month. If bad weather is encountered
she may not arrive until the middle of
next month.
At present there are but 400 cases of
oil in the kerosene warehouse, half Of
which has been sold by the importers,
Castle & Cooke, for delivery; the bal
ance will be sold by the firm in single
cases only and at the regular price.
Preference will be given to the firms
regular customers.
The consumption of oil here is about
5000 cases per month, so that the sup
ply on hand will not last more than
three days at the outside, provided, of
course, that the 200 cases already sold
to be delivered go to the other Islands.
Should it remain here among the gro
GERS, the entire stock will probably last
four days. After that, darkness to

cargo is from 5000 to 10000 cases, the

ONE MORE STEP
Physician Suggests Pure
Food Law.
Adulterated Foods are Common.
Dealers Here Imposed
Upon.

you don't go far enough in your
crusade against impure food" said
physician yesterday. Some of our
grocers are being imposed upon by
manufacturers in the United States,
and are selling adulterated jellies
without knowing it. With the absence
of a sewage system every possible pre-
caution should be taken by the Board
of Health to prevent disease. Impure
food is a good starter for sickness, and
its sale should be stopped. Here in the
Islands, where fruit of many varieties
cannot grow, the people depend upon
canned goods. Neither the public nor
the dealers here know whether the
goods handled are pure or not. In San
Francisco the Oldest and best grocers
were imposed upon. Certain brands of
preserves, jellies, ketchup and what
not were sold as pure, and until the
law was enforced did not find out the
mistake. The Government chemists
analized the contents of sundry tins
and found large quantities of apple
jelly in what was supposedly pure
peach jam.
81 do not know whether the Board
of Health could make ruling that
would have the same effect here as it
had in San Francisco, but it is certain
ly worth trying for and I believe if it
is possible, the Board will do it. I'm
fortunately there is no Government
| nhQrnicf ~ N this Tunrly DrnfnccnT-
Lyons, in the Custom House might be
assigned to the place, with an increase
in pay commensurate with the work.
It would require a chemist, of course,
to do it. AS to testing milk, any one
of ordinary intelligence could attend to
| that branch of the business with the
appliances in use.
1.-THE Advertiser is taking the right
stand in the matter, and l am quite
sure the public will support it in the
crusade Honolulu seems to be getting
out of its swaddling clothes in the mat
ter of improvements in sanitary mat
tiers, and | think the credit belongs to
the Board of Health. But the end is
by no means reached Yes, / under
stand the Board had nothing to do
with the organization of the Dairy
mems Association, but it may have
much to do with it's running on the
pure-milk basis. Now is the real time
for the Board to act in conjunction
with the Association and see that the
milk is pure The milk that goes to the
| Queens Hospital is tested every day
for there it must not be adulterated
except by persons who know the exact
proportions. The milk delivered at
the Barracks is supposed to be equal in
purity to the sample sent to the Min
lister of Foreign Affairs when the con-
tract was let. Whether it is or not
do not know.
But purer food of other sorts must
be had as well as milk. If it is within
the power of the Board of Health tc
have an inspector of such things,
sincerely trust, for the sake Of the
health of the community, that some
one will be appointed"

Saturday Night.
Saturday is the last night of the
tug-of-war tournament, so that no en-
gagements must be made by those who
want to see something worth seeing
in the line of muscular strength. The
arrangement of teams to pull is as fol-
lows:
1. Pakaka VS.. Moanalua.
2. U. s. S. Marion VS.. Foundry.
AS matters stand at present, the
foundry boys stand good chance of
winning first place. However, in case
the bluejackets pull the wielders of the
hammer over the winners mark, a diff
ferent story might result. If that hap
pens, the Waikiki boys, who virtually
hold second place, will have another
chance at the latter. 1t is hardly prob
able, however, that the foundry boys
will allow anybody to walk away with
their hard-won laurels.
