A REGULATION NEEDED.

Some sort of regulation should lie
made with regard to the congregating
together of the servants of household
ers at their usual haunts. These are in
general small stores, and there the men
enjoy themselves at cards and dominoes
and having a good time. There is no
objection to this at ordinary times. The
Chinese has as much right to amuse
himself as Mrs. Highhyer when she
gives a progressive euchre party. But
Mrs II. does not give euchre parties now
and the Chinese cook and steward
should not congregate in numbers at
the present time.
The danger lies in this. The cooks
and servants who live upon their en-
ployer's premises are living under good
sanitary conditions. If they were only
to confine their society to a strict circle
of their own class there might be no
danger But they do not confine them
selves, Cinnamon from all parts of the
city join the merry band.
Take an instance in point. One of
the sub-inspectors whose duty it is to
visit a Chinese store, went his rounds
somewhat earlier than usual last sun
day, and came upon some twenty or
more Chinese in one of the rooms.
There was a general stampede but
some dozen were coralled and their
names taken, Several of them were
cooks and stewards. One man was
from a Waikiki rice plantation He
was just out of quarantine and had a
pass. Another was from a Chinese
washhouse. Yet another was from
The Hawaiian star. [volume] (Honolulu [Oahu]) 1893-1912, 1900-01-26

vegetable garden away up Pauoa val
ley. No doubt those who escaped came
from all directions of the compass.
Again some of the men were scrupu-
lousy clean, while others were the
exact opposite.
Now there is danger in such
promiscuous gathering as this, and If
we of the Caucasian race have closed
out theaters, our churches, and stopped
all social gatherings, the Celestlals
should do the same
What is needed to be avoided at the
present time is the promiscuous contact
of people from widely separated dwell
lings. No one at the present can say
where a case Of plague may spring up,
and it is the bounden duty of all to
avoid unnecessary contact with stran-
gers. The place where the people meet
may be perfectly sanitary, and yet a
man coming in with infected clothes
may start infection in it.
No one desires to be unnecessarily
hard upon the oriental population for
goodness knows it has suffered enough.
and some of the causes for the outbreak
do not lie at its doors, but at the doors
of greedy landlords and careless OIL
Gals, but here is a clear position where
warning from the Board of Health
might very properly be given. In the
case cited, the arguments of the sub
inspector have had Statutory effect,
and the place is no longer a rendezvous
The owner was convinced of his own
danger. Perhaps similar arguments
might prevail elsewhere, but a distinct
warning from the Board would nc
doubt have good effect. 1t should be
published in Chinese.

CANCER-A STUDY.

The disease of cancer has been
battling one to physicians for one may
practically say centuries. Investiga
tion upon this line is now made possible
at Harvard through the bequest of
close on a hundred thousand dollars by
the will of Catherine Brewer Croft, tn
daughter of one of BOstOn's many sue
Cessful business men. Before her mar
riage Miss Brewer was very active in
philanthropic endeavor, and was thus
brought into contact with the horrors
of incurable disease.
The Star has again and again called
attention to the same horrors. If Miss
Brewer saw them in Boston, there
would also he no difficulty in showing
similar circumstances here, in spite of
sunny skies and emerald Isles. 1t is a
noble work to have initiated this devot-
ing of a fortune of what seems an i'm
possibility But after all what are for
tunes made for either to be used for
the amusement of those who own them,
or to be administered for the good of
all, as many have been.
The work of investigating cancer is
being carefully carried on in Europe.
but it is quite a question whether it is
not a more common disease in the
United States than it is in Europe. Tho
hundred thousand dollars which Mrs.
Brewer Croft has donated will be of
immense value in furthering investiga-
ton on this side of the Atlantic. The
result of the Harvard Investigations
must be for good.

1t is suggested that a guard be placed

states that a large number of people,

Loading sugar in an open roadstead
like Koloa is very much slower pro-
cess than loading it in the still waters
of Honolulu harbor. This the schooner
Robert Levers is now discovering. Sea
captains will be very glad when the
quarantine is over and the trade once
more runs in normal channels. They
have been having anything but a plea
SAINT time of it.

The case of the Chinaman who was
burned out of his home and having no
where to go to, was arrested and fined
a dollar through no fault of his own
seems a peculiarly hard one. What
COT the man do more than report to
a sub-inspectOr.

The cleaning up of Chinatown pushes
along. Under Mr.. Hiltz some kind of
order is coming out of chaos, and quite
a number of safes are yielding up their
money and valuables to the rightful
owners. The presence of A. G. M.
Robertson when the safes are opened
is a wise precaution on the part of the
Board of Health.
