Our learned Judge has des-
covered undoubted proof of the
fact that John Smith and his
Englishnen were not the first
at jamestown. Astonishing as is
this statement, Justice Clark has
apparently every proof, showing
that nearly 90 years before the
expedition of Sir Walter Raleigh
landed at Roanoke Island, and
81 years before John Smith
landed at Jamestown, the Span
iards made settlement Of the
identical land that afterwards
was occupied by the English
as Jamestown.
This Spanish colony consists
ed of 600 persons, men, women
and children, with priests and
physicians, horses and cattle.

Precautions against the ad-
mission of contagious diseases
are well in their way, but the best
possible safeguard of the public
health is local sanitation. The
British Imperial policy Is now
adays set against embargoes OF
quarantine upon commerce, the
authorities trusting tor protection
against pestilence mainly to
local sanitary precautions. Late
iy au cutlery was made in Eng
land against colonial guarantees,
as tending to weaken the influ-
ence of the mother country in oppo-
sition to such protective methods.
AS the warm season is approach
ing in Honolulu, while epidemics
are raging in Oriental ports from
whence many steamers come here,
thorough and systematic santa
ton of this city is demanded at
least contemporaneously with, if
not in precedence to, the medical
inspection of emigrants for Ha'
waii at Yokohama and Hongkong.
Itshould be remembered that the
cholera epidemic of 1895 broke
out of quarantine.

one to be followed. This may be
bitter pill for cavaliers, pessi-
mists and detractors, but it will
give general satisfaction to all
true friends of the cause.

not about time that some of those

Financial journals of England
handle the Queensland Govern

When the Government put the
concern on its feet in 1898 after
the great financial crash in the

been concealed that Government
claims would have priority in the
event of liquidation. Accusations
of obtaining money from deposit
ors under false pretenses are be-
ing made against the Government.

that the space within the Gordon
is not sufficient for their needs,
and in many cases they are herded
like animals.
A Canea dispatch of March %
relates how the insurgents pre-
vented body of Turkish troops
from conveying provisions to the
forts at Malaxa. The troops, find
ing that they could not reach the
fort, signaled to the gunboats in
Suda Bay, requesting aid. The
gunboats opened fire upon the in
surgents, but could not drive them
from the positions they occupied,
which effectually commanded the
approaches to the fort. So far as
known the fire from the warships
did no damage.
The dispatch adds: "The insurg-
eut leaders reiterate their refusal
to accept autonomy from the pow
ers, and declare that if the island
is not annexed to Greece they de-
sire war. If it were not for the
support afforded the Turks by the
powers they would in a short time
be driven from the island.
at is believed here that success
has so intoxicated the leaders of
the insurgents that they would
not hesitate to assume actual hos
tilities against the troops of the
powers. If they should join forces
with the Greek army of occupation
and resist the powers it would
take a strong force and large ex-
penditure Of money to conquer
them"
An Anthems dispatch of March
Fl says: According to the pro-
clamation issued by the foreign
Admirals, the blockade of Crete
began at 8 o'clock this morning.
1t is apparent that the blockade is
directed solely against the Christ
ians in the interior and the Mos
lens will suffer little inconveni-
ence from the action of the six
great Christian nations of Europe.
The understanding here is that
Great Britain has insisted upon
the powers according to Greece
two weeks notice before foreign
wHr ships enforce the blockade
against the Piraeus, the Port of
Athens and the port of Volo in
Thessaly, and is not at all in favor
of Russia's project that foreign
troops in Crete shall attack the
Greek army of occupation under
Colonel Vassos and compel their
withdrawal. 1t is known that
Lord Salisbury continues to treat
directly with the Greek Govern
ment, but no official opinion re-
garding England's action in this
matter has been publicly express
ed
Unseen allies of King George
at the courts of st. Petersburg,
London and Copenhagen are
splendidly assisting him. Greece
is having this splendid secret SER
vice without costing her anything.
To it is due the prolonging of
negotiations.
The Athens correspondent
of the London Times says: The
necessity of removing the Turkish
troops from the island becomes
more and more imperative. Abso-
lutely nothing else will convince
the Cretans of Europe's sincerity.
1t may be regarded as certain that
they will even prevent the de-
parture of the Greek army by
force until the Turks have gone.

illness is next to goodness and
we believe it to be a true one.
So many people in Honolulu
use our stoves and kitchen
utensils that they have got in
the habit Of sending to us for
all sorts of things for kitchen
and general use.
Soap is one of these things.
1t is not exactly in the line of
hardware but it certainly can
be claSsed as merchandise.
Anyhow we have a lot of it on
hand and we propose to sell it
and sell it quick. The line of
soaps we handle is that made
by Colgate & Co. of New
York, and we need no+ say
there is none better in the
market.
We offer Colgate'S Cash
mere Bouquet and Jockey
Club Soap at s. cents per cake,
the genuine article and full
size; Glycerine, Rosador and
Honey at 20 cents the cake,
and Rico and CASTLE at 10
cents.
For a shaving soap there is
none equal to Colgate's De-
mulcent. We sell it at 10 cents
the cake, it is worth 50.
In medicated soaps we offer
the Well-known Cuticura at
20 cents a cake, and the
Medicated Tar Soap al IS cents.
This latter article is excellent
for bathing and shampooing
purposes. Try it and you will
be convinced.

cock stated that if he did not take his
oath OF oifce on time he (the Superlntend.
ent) would appoint his successor accord
ing to law.
Though Mr.. Halstead was in a condi-
ton where his physicians could not tell
whether his illness would result fatally or
not, 1t was decided not to risk the chances
OF his being disqualified in case he re-
turned 10 health.
Presiding Justice of the Peace Groez-
niger, friend of the family. was called
on and agreed 20 administer the oath of
office. o-
After preparing the necessary papers he
repaired to Mr.. Halstead's nome, 14O4

there, at the bedside of the sick man. in

tne oath that makes Mr.. Halstead a
director IN case he is able to take his seat
WITHIN the time the law requires.
Inc disabled School Director has been
sunerlng from typhoid fever for some

doctors in attendance has not rallied from
