THE VIGILANT CHEF.
He Prevents a Direful Catastrophe
by Tasting the Mint Sauce.

He Prevents Direful Catastrophe
by Tasting the Mint Sauce.
Very few people in Honolulu are
aware OF the fact that few days
ago the inmates OF one OF our larg-
est hostelries were within an ace of
being poisoned with the mint sauce
appendixed to their luscious lamb.
1t happened somewhat thusly;
some one for the sake OF economy,
or in a spirit of thriftness, placed
under the vinegar barrel metallic
pail to catch the drippings. Sub
sequently he used the liquid to
make the mint sauce. BY this time
the pure vinegar had been convert
ed into a poison with which vitriolic
acid would hear a favorable COM
parison.
Our Chef makes it one OF his I'M
varying rules to taste every dish be-
fore his menu is placed on the table.
He had as the Frenchman says "a
very bad quarter OF an hour" when
he slipped of that sauce. We shall
not repeat the poly-glot interjec-
jections that emanated from the
scalded tongue or follow the liquid
to it's destination, but the Chef
triumphed, and is entitled to free
drinks" for the balance of his career.
Had it not been for his custom OF
tasting everything Honolulu would
have been startled by hideous SEN
sation of many deaths from joint
of lamb and mint sauce.

Was He Sarcasticr

DR.. Emerson appeared in the
District Court this morning for the
purpose OF having a Chinaman
committed to the Insane Asylum.
The Magistrate asked the learned
Doctor to present the reasons which
made him believe the man was in
SANE. The doctor stated that the
man had bought two watches on
speculation for Sc and had later on
disposed OF them for one dollar a
piece.
The Judge removed his glasses,
looked hard at the doctor who look
ed rather "assessable" and said:
"Doc! Do you want me to declare
every man who lately has dabbied
in sugar stocks and has been obliged
to sell at loss, insanei"
And the audience laughed and
said American Sugar Co. Kamalo,
Kihei, Maunalei to each Others and
all la-ha-ha-ha-ed.
The Chinaman was eventually
sent to the Asylum, as it was proven
that he was in the habit OF being
700 free with his money and splitting
az the turkeys.
The next legislature should pro-
videfor an extension of the Asylum
grounds. The place may yet b'
overcIowded.

Influence of Women in Politics.

For many years an active agita-
tion has been conducted in this
country in favor Of granting to wo.
men the privilege OF voting at po-
litical elections. 1t cannot be said
that much success has been achiev-
ed. In Colorado, Idaho, Utah, and
Wyoming they are given the full
franchise. In Kansas they vote in
city elections. A number of States
grant them the franchise in ques-
tions relating to schools. Yet the
movement can not be said to be ad-
vancing or to be gaining in strength.
Two years ago the question was vot-
ed upon in South Dakota and de-
feated by large majority. A con-
stitutional amendment in this State
favoring the extension Of the fran
chise to women was overwhelmingly
defeated. In New York State there
is a strong association OF women or
ganized to oppose this extension of
the suffrage.
An Eastern publication has re-
Gently printed the views Of a num-
Der OF prominent women regarding
the influence of their sex in politics.
Mrs. Mary A. Livermore declares
that the influence of women is felt
very strongly in politics in Massa-
chusetts, and particularly in those
elections in which the temperance
question is an issue. He says it is
no uncommon thing to hear a man
declare that he has no time to read
and think on some particular ques-
ton, but his wife has, and he thinks
she is right. In such a case there
can be no question that the woman
and not the man should be the
voter. She further says that women
do not take part in school elections
because they have no voice in the
selection of candidates and can only
indorse what has been done by the
political bosses. A very similar
complaint has been made by the
male sex with regard to general
elections. As to the influence of
women in politics, she cites the
case OF Congressman Roberts, the
Mormon representative OF Utah.
Mrs. Antoinette Konikow says
that modern progress has developed
new economic system, and has
broadened woman's horizon. She
has entered the commercial field,
but her Influence in politics is not
much felt, and will not be felt until
she has the same political rights as
man.
Not many understand how econ
omic forces are preparing woman
for the political field; it is the socia-
list who will aid her in her struggle
for political rights.
Miss Mary E. Corbett is more
hopeful. She says that woman has
a decided influence in politics, and
whether as wife, sister, mother OF
daughter, is often directly consult
ed on public affairs as we'll as on
matters of business. If given the
ballot in all things, however. she
would soon lose that sentimental
side OF her character that appeals
to mans highest and noblest i'm
pulses. Miss A. S, Blackwell de-
clares that women have influence il
; politics, aud therefore should have
the ballot in order that their influ
