A little extra money is a great
thing TO many OF the lepers, and
what ia OF much more Importance is
that the plan Of Mr.. Smith will rouse
the ambition OF the poor people aud
give them something to occupy their
minds, something to work for instead
of brooding over their sad infliction.
The inhabitants greatly appreciate
the new policy OF the Board OF
Health in allowing relatives and
friends to visit the Settlement at the
semi-annual trips in more liberal
sense than heretofore, aud Minister
Cooper was greeted in a hearty
manner.

surrey and horses and ride to Wal.

which plays there on Sundays.
They cannot go yachting and leave
their empty bottles floating in the
lochs OF Pearl Harbor, and they can
not afford to travel to Waialua and
take a.dinner a lacarte at the new
hotel What then are they to do2
Do the complaining people who
couldn't sleep because the boys
made a noise expect them to stay at
home in their stuffy small rooms
and spend their day Of freedom like
ascetics waiting FOR the dawn of the
day when they again would be called
to work? Or do they wish them to
club together, buy barrel of swipes,
get drunk, commit unmentionable
offenses, and then become unfit for
work, but ready for the life OF vsg-
rant aud criminal2 As long as the
youngsters behave themselves as
decent boys will do; as long as they
use no language which can offend
the ears OF decent people, we say let
them lift their young voices, call
their umpires down and enjoy their
youth and health, even il those liv-
ing in luxury among Gods green
hills feel annoyed We believe the
good God will smile approval at
those who spend His Sabbath iu en-
joying the fresh air, their vigor, aud

a l. rye Party Inspects the Leper
Settle ment-A Pleasant voy age
NO Complaints Made.
The delayed semi annual visit to
the Leper Settlement by the Board
OF Health took place on Friday even
ing when officials and visitors to
whom permits had been granted
boarded the w. G.. Hall aud sailed
for the Settlement, which is the
most unique institution OF its KIND
in the world
After very smooth trip the party
landed at Kalaupapa at daybreak
without finding any difficulty in
reaching the wharf. 1t is to be
hoped that some day breakwater
will be built. There are any amount
of rocks available noar the landing
place, and at comparatively small
cost the landing at the Settlement
could be made perfectly safe. There
is nothing new to tell about the
Settlement since the last visit.
Everything is apparently running
aud for wonder there was no
"kick" from any Of the unfortunate
people. The two noble Homes which
shield many of those afflicted are
conducted in the manner which is
credit to the Sisters who have charge
of the Bishop Home for girls and
single women, and to the Brothers
who, in a model manner, look after
the boys and men at the Baldwin
Home at Kalawao. In this connec-
tion, it may be mentioned that Bro
ther Dutton, the chief OF the Boys
Home, completed the thirteenth
anniversary of his arrival and work
amongst the unfortunate class Of
our people on this visiting day The
houses belonging to the Govern
ment or to private inmates are kept
in excellent condition, and since the
blessing OF an ample water supply,
the surrounding grounds and gar
dens are being cultivated and beau
tilted.
In this connection we will men
tion the scheme OF Mr.. w. o. Smith
to encourage the planting OF trees
and the improvement OF the grounds
around the houses, With his usual
liberality Mr.. Smith gave notice
that in October next year five money
prizes, ranging from $40 to $50, will
be paid to the five persons who have
done the best work in cultivating
trees during the year. There are to
be given nominally by the news
papers of the city to hide Mr..
Smiths modest generosity.
Aao hex sol Of prizes, from S. to
$25, is offered to those who, during
the period, have kept their grounds
in the best condition. All the in
habitants can enter in the competi-
tion, and w. o. Smith, @. b. Rey-
nolds and William Motley will act
as judges. Ii Mr.. Smith sees that
his liberal offer is rewarded with
success he will see that his plan
will be continued annually,

THE SUNDAY Law.

Why should not Sunday be day
OF recreation and a chance given TO
those who work during the week to
forget their drudgery and e7joy
themselves in decent and healthy ex
ercises. In civilized countries is the
workingman's day and parks, zoolo-
gical gardens, museums, theatres,
ETC., are crowded with those in
search OF recreation. Bands are
playing, Glee Clubs are singing,
picnics and dances are going on and
nobody feels disturbed, and we hope
all 60 to the same heaven Of the
Central Union Church. A number
OF boys we're arrested, taken to the
Police Station and arraigned in the
District Court yesterday, because
they had gathered on the plains OF
Puunui and were prepared to play
game of ball. Certain people living
in the vicinity heard the shrill
voices of the youngsters and felt very
much annoyed by being disturbed
in their prayers (for rise in
stocks?) They telephoned to the
Police Department thereby disturb
ing two worthy officers who were
dispatched TO the scene, and instead
OF telling the boys to disperse
chased them around and arrested
them. We would like to know what
the disturbed prayers" expect the
boys to do on a Sunday. Every one
of the youngsters has to work hard
daring the week and Sunday is the
day when his amusement and re-
creation should come in. Honolulu
is growing and the people in author
ity have never thought of the poor.
The boys cannot play ball or have
frolic in the city proper, and now
they are being driven away even
from tho suburbs because the deli
cate ears of come person, not even
willing to appear in Court to give
evidence and explain where the an
noyance comes in, has laid COM
plant The INDEPENDENT has always
advocated the strongest measures
against hoodlumism and rutfianism
but we think the police made fools
of themselves by arresting 40 boys
at Puunui, because they made a
noise preparatory to opening a
healthy game with balls and bats.
Chinese are being arrested by officers
without sense, because they spend
their evenings in playing game Of
dominoes. Now boys are arrested,
put under heavy bail and treated as
criminals because they enjoy their
day OF liberty by gathering together
and having good time. How about
the jolly surf riders, and canoe
steerers, and the bathers who make
noise enough on Sundays at Wal
kiki, to make the dead wake up2
How about the noise church bells
and the singing hordes who gather
every Sunday and make life misery
to those who want sleep but live
near a church or near a corner
where the noisy Christians assemble.
Give the poor boys show. They
cannot enjoy their day Of rest, the
only day that they have not to work
by enjoying dolce far niente in
