PUBLIC PARK MATTERS.

Whether the iron wood trees at
Kapiolani Park are to be cut down
in considerable quantities as init
mated by the BULLETIN on good
authority or are to be simply
thinned out as stated by the Ad-
vertiser, the plea of our correspon-
dent Citizen" for a professional
landscape gardener is timely and
worthy of active consideration by
the Park Commissioners.
With the climatic conditions
affording marked natural advau.
tagss, Hawaii ought to add the
best features of modern artistic
beauty to its public parks, squares
and driveways. There is no reason
why Hawaii should be satisfied
with anything but tie best. 1t is
no reflection on the Park Commits
siouers to say that the park is not
today what it might be. The stu
alton is that the artistic features
of the park might be enhanced
hundred fold by a professional
landscape gardener whose special
education and experience enable
him to make suggestions and map
out scheme which would offer va.
liable assistance to the business
men who have not the time to do
vote to such work.
s. M. Damon employed an ex-
perienced landscape gardener in
the laying out of his Moanalua
grounds and even the most casual
observer can note the superiority
of the general scheme of bis pri-
vate park over the public grounds
of the city.
1t is true that the Com mission
is more or less crippled in carry
ing out ideal work, by lack of
funds. The permanent employ
ment Of a scientific gardner is
practically impossible at the pre-
sent time. If the services of such
perso were obtained how
ever for a few months
oaly, it would be move
in the right direction, and we are
inclined to believe with our cor
respondent that this much can be
done. Should il be maintained
that Kapiolani Park is good
enough as it is and that business
men are fully capable of deciding
what tree or shrubs should be
planted or cut down, the grounds
Of the Aala park should not be
forgotten. Here is park that is
soon, we hope, to be improved
and most assuredly the first plans
should come from the hand of q
scientific landscape artist.

men are, and these are in man
ner born to the profession. 1t
also takes many years of
practical experience to make "a
man a good gardener in any branch
of bis profession.
1t is as a matter of fact
not expected of the Com
missloners that they plan and
direct the making and planting Of
our parks; but It is expected of
them that so long as they continue
to hold their position as Commits.
sioners that their work shall be
undertaken and managed in a
systematic manner and that there
be no work done by the "rule of
thumb"
1t is not for me to here enter in
to discussion as to whether the
cutting down of avenues OF iron
wood trees in Kapiolani Park to
make room for lawns, as suggest.
ed in your yesterdays issue, is or
lie not wise, but I with many
others do think that the Commits
sioners should 60 slow in DOOM
ing trees, that on account of the
sandy nature of the soil in the
Park, it has taken many years to
grow, and that before cutting
them down or making any radical
changes at all, that they should
have the whole Park laid out sys.
tematlcally by a landscape garden.
er specially employed for that
purpose.
In the end, were this done,
money would be saved and the
public would at least be satisfied
that every change made in the
present appearance of the
park, would in course of time
be a permanent improvement.
The expense incurred in obtain
ing the aid of such a man, and
getting him to draw plans, etc.,
necessary for the work would l
am sure amount to few hundred
dollars only and his work if pro-
perly done could be then carried
out by a permanently employed
arboriculturist and florist special
ly engaged and who could also
superintend the work of under
gardeners who in turn need be,
for the present at least ,only ordin
airy every day laborers. l have
been told by professional garden
ers in San Francisco that suit
able man to superintsnd such
matters and one familiar with the
nomenclature aud habits of plants
could be imported here to work
for term at 500 per month
with lodging, j. Q. a man who
could at least carry on the work
properly for the time being and
until we could pay more. 1 believe
our Park Commissioners are at
this moment paying their Super.
intendent $50 per month with
lodging, so that the extra cost for
professional services would not
amount to very much.
Hoping that this letter may in
part be the means of giving us
Parks and Gardens which at some
future time may BE- the pride of
the Pacific.
Believe me,
Your obedient servant,

MORE PAYING THAN PRAYING
PRESBYTERIAN CHURCH AS A
FINANCIAL INSTITUTION.
Serious Question That Is Confront
ing the Members of That Faith In
New York City.

New York, June 26.-The Rev. James
Chambers, who has just resigned the
pastorate of Calvary Presbyterian
church, said in his farewell sermon
that Presbyterianism was ON the verge
of serious question in the city of
New York. The church was beginning
to be looked upon in the light of a pay
ing investment. The paying church
was getting more popular than the
praying church The people were too
much inclined to subordinate the real
aim.
In order to provide for the districts
that could not support a church he
thought the presbytery ought to raise
a fund of at least $500, 900 to endow
parishes. He believed something ought
to be done to elevate the real purpose
of the church and that the spiritual
end should dictate its policy.
We have gone through our ex-
perience here because there has not
been sufficient constituency to main
tain a Presbyterian organization" said
DR.. Chambers. The churches must
go where the people are and stay there
and save the people. 1 stated that this
locality was inhabited almost entirely
by people of another race. l want
to say now that a certain rabbi told
or twenty churches if a satisfactory
price was arranged. At least five offers
have been made for this property.
When we send missionaries among the
Jews we must put up the monev. We
cannot work among them any other
way.
There is another element that has
wide influence in this church. The
discussions of the Bible have had a
mighty influence on the people. Their
faith has been undermined until it has
reached state of Indifference. Doubt
has been raised as to the very sub
structure of the Christian faith This
has made the task of minister ten fold
greater
DR.. Chambers said that it was with
deep regret that he relinquished his
pastorate. The church will be sold for
800 600 for a synagogue and the pro-
ceeds devoted to missionary work.

Jumped Into Canal.

Two young ladies of North Ogden
had narrow escapes and an unpleasant
experience last night on the Hot
Springs motor coming into Ogden. One
OF the young ladies was coming in and
the other was to meet her at the
North Ogden depot. The second met
the train at the water tank and got
on to ride on down to the station. The
two were standing on the steps when
the motor started and one fearing she
would be scraped off by some bushes
jumped to the ground. 1t happened
that the ground was not there. as the
step was at that moment above the
bridge of the North Ogden canal and
the young lady ploughed into four feet
of swift running water Her friend
promptly screamed and leapt in after
her. then the two floundered around a
little bit and chung to the bridge until
they were helped out.

The board of county commissioners

able business.
Mr. John Wheelwright of Hooper APP
peared and represented that the bridge
put in by him over the Hooper canal
ON the sugar factory road was accord
ing to agreement. He represented that
the county surveyor had measured

to accept the work. Mr.. WheelwriSht' s
explanation was accepted.
Commissioner Smith reported that he
favored the opening of the new road

ed the road supervisor to begin the
work

Washington, June 26.-Surgeon Gen
eral Wyman, when shown the dispatch
telling of the arrival at Honolulu of a
vessel on which the bubonic plague had
made its appearance, said the marine
hospitel bureau had received no infor-

thought, was due to the fact that DR..
Carmichael of the marine hospital SER
vice. who investigated the case, had
gone into quarantine, and was. there

Washington.
General Wyman was confident that
there was no danger of the plague

measures, prevent suspicious cases
from landing. The plague has never
