"These gentlemen generally travel
with the members Of their favorite

of them are very kind and good friends
to professionals in time of stress, and
not few of them are noted for their
wild enthusiasm and their peculiarities
in the way of expressing it. For instance,
a certain gentleman always, when any
member of the opposing team is very
quickly out, oonvulses the field by play.

Another gentleman always stands

who are on the field, no matter where
ne may be playing, by their peculiar
demonstrations. "

Lyman Presided.

The Kinau brings the news today IF
mass meeting held in Hilo on Tues
day evening last, at which Minister Of
the Interior King, Attorney General
Smith and Superintendent of Public
Works Rowell, all of Honolulu, were
present.
The purposes of the meeting of IIilo
citizens were n desire of the Govern
ment officials to meet with them and
exchange views upon the several inn
provements which the Government has
declared itself ready to make, in com
pliance with action taken upon tn,
same by the Legislature of 1896.
Mr.. F. S. Lyman presided over the
meeting. Attorney General Smith
made quite an extended talk and
| placed himself at the disposal of the
citizens for questioning upon the con
dition of affairs in the Government.
The improvements brought up for
discussion were the hospital scheme,
the water works extension and sew
erage.
In speaking of the meeting, the
Hawaii Herald says editorially: 1T
was plain statement of some of the
very pressing needs of our growing
city, and the facts were placed before
the Cabinet members in businesslike
way. Personalities were not shown
and no pertinent questions, not JUS
tifiable, were asked"
| After more deliberation the editor
changed his mind and in the same is
sue says: "It would seem that when
men holding the highest offices in the
! Cabinet meet the citizens of town
to discuss the public wants and needs.
and do so with the intention of finding
out what is most needed and the way
of securing them, that they should be
accorded at least the courtesy shown
by one gentleman to another. In the
meeting Tuesday evening, this was
not the case"
