Mrs. lamar Meekapu died in
Honolulu on Sunday last. The de-
ceased was born in 1852 and was
educated in the Mission school by
the Rsvs. Ogden aud Bingham. She
married the Rev M. Kuaea, the pas

was known as the Hawaiian Henry
Ward Beecher, and who died several
years ago. Later on she married
Mr.. Meekapu who survives her. One
daughter, Mrs. D. X. Koki, is also
left to mourn the loss of good
mother. The funeral took place on
Monday last from Kaumakapili
church and the remains were in
tered in the Kawaiahao cemetery.
The presence at the grave of several
prominent foreign ladies showed the
high respect in which the deceased
was held by the Christian COM

CHARITY BEGINS AT HOME.

Is it not possible for our wealthy
people to do something in the line
of establishing a hospital for incur
ables without waiting for govern
ment action until we have govern
ment2 1t appears to be very easy
matter to raise thousands of dollars
to save the souls of strangers thous-
ands Of miles away, and to carry out
the adage Of first the missionary,
and then the man-of-war, but to
save the bodies and alleviate the
sorrows and sufferings OF the sick is
far different matter. That charity
is too near at home to be approved
of by the fantastic freaks Of frail
humanity who invariably hunt for
the mistletoe miles away from their
own homesteads where it is, un-
known to them, growing profusely.
If our Sugar Barons and our true
and protesting Christians 80 desired
sufficient money could be raised in
ten days to build aud found hospital
for consumptives which might be
located on government ground on
any one of the islands and not me-
cessarily in Honolulu. The. Execu-
tive Council might be willing to
treat the money raised as to be re-
garded as loan to be eventually
repaid out of special appropria-
tion when the territorial legislature
assemblies. Surely there is some
method by which a concentrated
effort in the right direction might
bring in favorable results. In this
general connection the following
fact has been brought to our notice
which suggests that caution must
be used to prevent the country
being overrun with pauper invalids.
A few days since an incurable con-
sumptive, with only ten dollars of
wealth, of only two or three weeks
residence in the country applied for
treatment and the repose Of the
dying. How is it an incurable, a
stranger and almost penniless was
ever permitted to land here. This is
brutal way of putting a matter
that affects the health OF the whole
community, but the health inspec-
tors of other nations deal practical
ly with the individual for the bene-
fit of society at large. Give, gen.
erous people, to your benighted
heathen generously if it salves your
consciences or encourages you on
your christian path to eternal bliss,
but at the same time cast your eyes
down on to your own door steps and
cleanse away that blood stain drop
ped from the sores and sufferings OF
your own people. The recording
angel frowns at hypocrisy whether
gilded with gold or slavered over
with unctuous and impious prayer

NOTWITHSTANDING President Nc
Kinley has expressed the belief that
present conditions will not justify the
calling of an extra session of Congress,
there seems to be very good reason for
getting Congress together earlier than
usual. There is enough business on
the schedule to occupy all the time of
the session, even we're everything
ready for immediate action. But owing
to the resignation of Speaker Reed
there will be considerable business to
dispose of before the regular work OF
the session can begin. The election OF
another Speaker to succeed Speaker
Reed will occupy some time and will
probably result IN a complete reorgani-
cation of the House. By the time all
this is disposed of there will be com
paratively little tins remaining for the
transaction of other business of great
Importance. The questions growing
out of the Spanish American war and
the Philippine instruction will be up
for settlement, and probably by the
time all the preliminary work is at
tended to conditions will be ripe for q
careful investigation of those problems

THE New York Times asks the
question, what shall We do for the
man who has done so much for us?"
and then proceeds to answer it. The
Times suggests that the people of the
United States treat Dewey as England
did Wellington, by making him a
present of 100000, or as much more
as can be raised by the plan proposed.
half of which shall be for building a
handsome residence for the hero at any
locality in the United States he chooses
and the remaining for his personal use.
The Times then states it's plan of rails
inc the funds, which is as follows:
There are some 10000 periodicals
in the United States which are entitled
to transmission as such through the
mails. Among them are 2,ll9 daily
papers, which represent, most immedi-
ately and most accurately the senti-
ment of the United States. Let US
assume that only one fourth part of
these are in position to act as collect
ing and distributing agents for a
national Dewey testimonial, and that
each one of these 500 is willing to
pledge itself to the collection from it's
readers and the transmission to the
appointed trustees of the sum of $500
for that fund"
The Times is daft. The people of
the United States honor Dewey and
would no doubt be glad to show their
esteem in any possible way, but when
they give Admiral Dewey an estate or
any gift of that nature they will much
prefer to go at it in more practical
way. The people are pretty we'll rep
resented in Congress, and would pro-
badly feel willing tosallow their agents
and representatives there to act for
them in matter of this kind as we'll as
in that of raising money to carry on the
war.

ANDREW CARNEGIE and Russell
Sage are two rich men. They have
both been successful in amassing en-
ormous fortunes. Presumably this has
been done by dint of constant applica-
ton to business and the exercise of
rare ability. Both of these gentlemen
have reached time of life when the
arduous duties OF business might be
thrown aside. This Mr.. Carnegie has
concluded to do. He has announced
his intention Of breaking loose from the
thralldom of money making and live
the rest of his days on the fruits of his
past labOrs. In the meanwhile he is
going to amuse himselfby philanthropic
deeds. By virtue of considerable
practice and experience in the matter
of gift giving he has learned whore,
when and how to give to the best ad
vantage and he anticipates much in the
way of pleasure from this manner of
pastime. Whatever Mr.. Carnegie's
political views may be, and howsOever
different from our own his ideas of ex-
pansion, annexation, ETC., we are bound
to admit that in the matter of philan-
thropy his ideas are the true ones, and
his philosophy of life wise one.
His millionaire contemporary, Rus
sell Sage, is in many respects the exact
antithesis of Mr.. Carnegie. All the
pleasure Mr.. Sage can find in life is in
making money and keeping it, and,
possibly one might add, giving advice
to young men. In spending money
Mr.. Sage is not able to see the pleasure.
He isn't philanthropist and has we'll
merited that negative distinction. His
greatest ambition is to hoard his money
and die rich man, for Mr.. Sage be-
lieves that the rich man occupies the
highest pinnacle Of honor and esteem.
In plain terms Mr.: Sage considers the
philanthropist a fool. From this
criterion Mr.. Sage is far from being
fool. SO far from being considered one
of that despicable class he would spend
hundreds of dollars to escape the pay
ment of damages to a clerk who just
escaped with his life from an Outburst
of Mr.. Sage's benign anger. Of the
two gentlemen we think we most like
Mr.. Carnegie.

THE Michigan Legislature promises
to make record in reform rivaling
even that of the Wisconsin body. An
anti trust bill of a rather strenuous
nature has already passed the Senate
and promises to pass the House with
little trouble. Besides, a resolution
mas been introduced calling for the
passage of bills taxing railroad, tele-
graph, telephone and express compan
les specially, creating permanent tax
commission to recommend general
revision of the tax laws, and providing
that the question of q general revision
of the Constitution be submitted to the
people at a special election.
In the matter of general and very
much needed reforms the West is
assuming the lead. 1t is fact of
which Wisconsin may be justly proud
that she stands in the van of the
movement.
