The Hawaiian star. [volume] (Honolulu [Oahu]) 1893-1912, 1900-09-10

Ideas of proper dress to meet the de-
mands of decency seem after all to be
largely a matter of environment and
custom. Nor is Honolulu the only place
where the question comes before the
authorities. The Kobe Chronicle says:
about a year ago a wooden-headed
policeman at Osaka ordered little
European girl, riding in a jinrikisha
with her mother, to return home and
clothe herself properly, his ideas of de-
cency being shocked by seeing the little
girl wearing a sleeveless dress in the
hot weather! AS the result of the pro-
ties that was made in this case, it will
be remembered that the policeman was
dismissed from the force, and the Chief
of Police apologised to the father for
the indignity put upon his child
almost an exactly similar incident
has now occurred at Shioya. About five
o clock on Wednesday afternoon, lit
tie foreign boy, under seven years Of
age, who had gone down to the Beach
House Hotel with his father and mother
went in to battle with other children.
Somewhat superhously, if the age be
taken into consideration, he wore bath
ing drawers. Yet he had not been in
the water long before a solemn police
man came down and ordered the child
to return to the hotel, as he was not
sufficiently clad. A few minutes later
a number of coolies towing junk came
along stark naked as they were born.
The policeman had gone, but the Incl
dent is a common one at Shioya, and
the police never think of interfering or
expostulating with the coolies"

The situation in China seems now to
be clearing up. Apparently there is a
better feeling among the allies. If pre-
sent indications are to be trusted there
wiz be no partition of the Empire. A
strong government is to be instituted at
Picking. Guarantees for the protection
of foreigners are to be secured. China
and the Chinese people are to be put
forward on their way to work out their
own destiny and their own part in the
worlds progress, If this program shall
be carried out it will be at least one in
stance of war for a principle in which
the principle was not forgotten in vic
tory and the lust for territory.

Perhaps there was not such general
regret among the soldiers on the Logan
at arriving in Honolulu on a dry"
Sunday, as some people ve'assumed.
A well intentioned citizen, meeting a
group of soldiers on the street, express
ed regret to them that everything was
closed up, that they could not even get
a drink of beer. "Oh, 1 rather like a
quiet Sunday" replied one of the SOL
diers I'VE are waiting for church time,
we are going to church."

The Regatta Day Committee are to be
congratulated on the effort made to
make the regatta day events amatuer
as far as possible. 1t is to be hoped
that before many more regatta days all
the events will be amatuer. Perhaps 1t
is not possible to make them so now.
But there can be made to come time
when a medal or trophy won on Homo
lulu Regatta Day in our harbor, will be
more valuable and more highly priced,
than any money prize that could be put
uD.

The rowing races Saturday were a
great success. There was the most
healthy rivalry in a most excellent sport
The crowds present show that this COM
munity has a most wholesome interest
in sports. 1t is something too, that
this event, in which there is more gem
eral and active interest, than in any
other, is a strictly amatuer event. 1t
is sport for sports sake.

The resignation of Judge Silliman is
to be regretted. He has shown quail

[Staff Correspondence in the Newark
Evening News" of Yesterday.l
WASHINGTON, Dec. 3, 190o.-There is
to be Democratic caucus late this after
noon, and there is considerable specula-
tion regarding its possible action. AS the
Democrats are powerless to block legisla-
ton effectively, it may be determined to
confine opposition to the casting of ad-
verse votes on all measures distinctively
Republican.
Another matter, one, however, having
no connection whatever with legislation,
may be considered. The caucus may de-
termine the party status Of Allan Nc
Dermott, the successor of William D.
Daily, as the representative from the Hud-
son district of New Jersey. A leading
Democratic representative said this morn
ing that the question of regularity might
be raised regarding McDermott
The latter S severe arraignment of DEM
ocratic methods and platform declara-
tions, after his election, has aroused a
spirit of bitter resentment among new
line Democrats.
The followers of Bryan remember Nc
Dermott's att..ude in 1896, and claim that
there has been no changing Of spots SO
far as the Hudson County man is con-
cerned. Should the question of party reg
ularity be raised the caucus is likely to
resolve itself into debating society," in
which rules of order are absolute And
McDermott is not the kind of man to re-
main quiet under attack

larity of the institution with which he
was connected.

reavement; and be it further

BAKING POWDER PEDDLERs.

Many brands Of alum baking powders
are for the purpose of introducing them
peddled from door to door There are
others which grocers get five or ten
cents can. for recommending to Gus
toners. Neither Of these methods are
ever employed to sell the pure, high class
goods.
People cannot be too careful about
what they eat. No one can tell what
these baking powders contain without
employing chemist The peddlers Of
the powders frequently claim they are
made from phosphate, but the recent
official test show that most of the so
called phosphate powders are mixed with
alum.
IT Is only safe to refuse all baking pow
ders or Samples Of food that are ofrefed
In this way It is best to 70 10 your
