WHAT OF THE RECORDS?

Black Hills and the rest OF the state
have not finished bowling about
the iniquity of the late popullst leg
%islature. First they charged ex-
travagance, but when the figures
were hunted up it was found that
the populist legislature had cost
the people of South Dakota s2,7S1-,
as less than the republican session
of 1895. The figures had a quiet
ing effect on the charge Of extrava-
gance and then followed charges Of
various kinds, from the populists
being '.green and clumsy legisla-
tors" to anything that the ordinary
mind could conceive. The repub-
lican papers of the state kept this
thing up from the time that the
Legislature convened till it adjourn
ed, and some or them haven't fin
ished yet.
In view OF all that has been said
by these journalistic diciples Of
Mark Hanna, The UNION feels
compelled to go into details some
what and briefly review the career
Of a few or the republicans who
have s'served" the state so efficient
~ in the "good old days. In
this connection we would call to
mind the fsct that two years ago
the republican state treasurer,
Taylor, was a fugitive from justice,
with $685. 600 Of the states money
in his inside pocket. He after
wards got IS months in the peni
tertiary and was turned loose last
Wednesday.
;. ExzLand Commissioner, Ruth,
was tangled up in some kind of a
deal and at one time charged with

IMPROVEMENTS GOING ON T MAKES HIS BOW BAD LOT 0 RESIDENTS GOOD THING FOR MAUI
THE WINTER SEASON FITTINGLY
USHERED IN.
Last Nights Heavy Storm Quite Cen
eral-Niolent Wind and Heavy Rain
Another Blow Brewing.

The tropical winter was ushered in
with storm of more than usual vio-
lence. The rain fell in torrents, the
wind blew and lightning, accompani-
ed by heavy thunder, added impress
siveness to the onslaught of old Bo-
reas. So far as can be learned no
damage was done, but leaking roofs
and ramshackle buildings suffered
and many timid persons burned CO.
pious quantities of midnight oil to
keep their courage up.
The storm had been gathering for
several days, and its approach was
marked by fitful gusts of wind and
showers, but it was not until after
most folks were abed last night that
it finally broke over the city. 1t was
not steady blow. but rather series
of heavy squalls. Out at Makiki, and
along the Waikiki road, it is estimat-
ed that the wind attained maximum
velocity of from 35 to 40 miles an
hour, although it blew scarcely more
than % miles down town. But the
heaviest rainfall was, as usual. in the
heart of the city. One guage showed
fall of over an inch between sunset
and sunrise.
Frank Browns guage on King street
showed fall of 2S of an inchv during
yesterday. and 80 of an inch fell in
kapiolani park last night, according
to Cecil Browns guage. The rainfall
was very heavy on the Peninsula.
George Allen says that when he came
to town this morning he could see the
COWS in his pasture knee deep in mud
and water. The gullies were all over
flown, and the lowlands all trans
formed into lakes. Nuuanu and Ma
noa valleys are almost wateriogged
from the heavy downpour of the past
few days.
The heaviest part of the electrical
storm occurred at about , o'clock this
morning, while the wind was knock
ing down the cocoanuts and rattling
tin roofs and loose shutters. The
thunder rumbled in unison with the
roofs, making "A great din. On the
whole it was wild night. and no gen
tie warning of the approach of winter
The indications today are that an
other and gger storm is brewing tc
| the eastward. Frank Brown, who
says that he was once a weather pro
phet but has lost the hang of things
in these latter days, predicts a very

and heavy rains. and he thinks il

NEW QUARTERS.
Pacheco & Fernandes to Have Il Larg-
er Shop.

When Pacheco d Fernandes, the
proprietors of the Criterion Barber
Shop, commenced business last year,
they started with two chairs. Ihey
attended strictly to business, kept
their tools in perfect condition and
paid particular attention to the clean
liness of their shop. Their bust
nesslile methods attracted the best
class of custom in Honolulu and in a
short time they added third chair.
Last June they remodeled the shop,
put in some handsome fixtures, and in
response to the demand, placed Il
fourth barber at work.
AS a natural result of their enter
prise, they find now that they require
larger quarters. These they have Sc
cured in the Arlington block on Ho-
tel street, in the store next to the
billiard room. The place will be very
handsomely fitted up and enough
money will be spent to stamp il as
the only first class shop in this city.
A fifth chair will be placed in the new
shop, which will be occupied about
the first of next month.

FIFTY CHINESE NAGABONDS MAY
BE HAULED IN.
Better Glass of Chinese Merchants
Want Them Jailed for Nagrancy-
Burglars Said to be Among Them.

The attention of the police author
tiles will be called to the presence of
a half hundred Chinese vagabonds,
some of them bad characters, in Hon
olulu, by a deputation of young Chi
nese Christians.
George {. Bungchong. bright
young Chinese who holds the position
of clerk in the law office of De Ia
Nergne q Case, is at the head of the
reform committee. He stated today
that they had the full endorsement OF
the better class of the Chinese colony
in their work, and they had every con
fidence of ridding the city of very
undesirable element.
''There are from fifty to sixty Chi
nese living in the city who do not do
one stroke of work from morning un-
til night" said MIR. Bungchong this
morning. at is not because they can
not get work or are not able bodied
but simply because they are down
right lazy and will not work.
Nearly all of these vagabonds are
living i'm what is known as Chinatown.
They are gamblers and opium smoll-
ers. True, they have no money, but
they will take Il hand in a game and
II lneN WIN Will purchase tntlE OPIUM.
Should they lose and be called upon
to settle after the game is over, they
attempt to get away and then a gen
eral free for all fight ensues.
"They are curse to the Chinese
community in that they are continu-
ally backmailing some of their own
countrNmen. Now strong suspi-
cion is pointed toward them for con-
necton in the many burglaries recent
ly reported"
''It is believed that they have come
to the point where they have no fear
of thieving and burglarizing residen-
ces; they having become so well spot-
ted in Chinese circles that it is hard
for them to obtain one penny.
THE better class of Chinese recog-
niZe the disgrace this element is now
bringing on the colony, for they are
the ones who are so frequently arrest
ed. What we want is the police al
thorites to arrest these worthless
| Chinese on the charge of vagrancy,
and if found guilty sentenced to six
months Imprisonment, as the law pro
vides. If this is done there will be
less thieving. opium smoking and
gaming in Chinatown"

VIII Soper, in all probability the fun
back on the Punahou college team,

memorable Stanford-Olympic game
played in San Francisco in October of
last year. Mccormack played right

full back for the Stanford students.
Neither eleven was able to score. Cap
tain Ficiert of Stanford raised So

IN THE FIELD or SPORTS.
What is Going on in Athletics, Cycling
and Boating.

Apropos of the great growth of the
game of football, comparison be-
tween the old days and the present
may be interesting. Before the intro
duction of the Rugby game, the audi
ences were decidedly limited. Very
few except the substitutes were sutii-
ciently attracted to stay through the
entire match, and in truth the game
hardly warranted the term sport.
This was true of all football played in
the United States at that time by the
Americans. The Englishmen were
much further advanced and in time,
through Canada, their Rugby game
came down to us. Even, however, af-
ter the Rugby game came in, it re-
quired number of years to accustom
the players and the public to the fact
that football could be made interest
ing.
