FOR PIIRE ENOD.

The fact that nearly 100000 pounds
Of oleomargarine were imported to
Hawaii in 1898 and more, presumably,
IN 1899, and the further fact that none
Of 1t was sold as oleomargarine, should
have more public study. With the
highest average death rate of perhaps
any health resort in the world, Homo
lulu has peculiar interest in the
matter of adulterated food. If so much
of our butter is bogus, and If, as In
spector Shorey says, the people of this
city are being fed on adulterated milk,
coffee, spices, vinegar. jellies, jams,
aavoring extracts, and the like, then
the sooner the pure food laws are
amended so they can be enforced or
new and stronger laws are provided,
the better 1t will be for the hygiene of
this community.
1t looks as If Honolulu would have
to make a supreme struggle to get a
chance to be healthy. With such reek-
ing denominations as the Bishop Estate
on the one hand, unfiltrated reservoir
water on another, multitudinous cess
pools all about and food purveyors who
sell axe grease for butter, chicory for
coffee and ground cocoanut shells for
spice, the main reliance for keeping
well must be on a merciful Providence.
But Providence will not always look
out for the culpably neglectful, having
a well-understood preference for help
ing those who hep themselves. We
must begin to meet that condition at
least halfway.
Pure food may be had If good laws
are made and judges of sincerity and
common sense are always on haad to
interpret and enforce them. 1t did not
take San Francisco long, under one of
its reform Health Boards, to get the
adulterators on the run. Milkmen
were stopped on their rounds and their
wares tested, groceries were sampled,
wines, spirits and "temperanca
drinks" analyzed, butter exported,
meat looked after for signs of imma-
turity and tuberculosis, and when an
offender was caught he was hauled be-
fore Judge who understood his duty.
and as a usual thing was visited with a
good, round fine. In any case, his
name, his place of business and his
offence were blazoned in the press, and

The statement in an evening paper
that the Rev. S. NJ. Brooke, an AnglI-
can missionary, was killed by being
dragged through Tiensln on a rope
would have been surprising If true.
Tiensin is the most civilized OF Chinese
interior cities, is the usual administra-
tive seat Of Ii Hung Chang, is a river
port where foreign gunboats lie, and
It has a considerable white colony. Not
since the Catholic nuns were slaugh-
tered there some forty or fifty years
ago has Tlensin added to the red rec
ord OF missionary persecution. As the
statement in the evening paper refers
TO the murder Of Rev. Mr.. Brooke hav-
ing taken place in Shantung, a prov
ince adjacent to Pe-chi-H, where Tien-
sin is located, the probable name of
the city where the murder was done Is
Tsi-Nan. Atrocities that could not
easily occur in Tiensin would be ordi-
nary happenings there.

that generally did the business. A
leading Market street grocer was
among the number who found it best
to shut up shop and move away.
We anticipate the time when there
shall be a pure food crusade in Homo
lulu that will amount to something,
and when it comes-which will be, we
think, after the Legislature has met
it will not lack for the Advertisers
daily backing. People who are around
here then will see some milk split and
some cellar-made coffee go up in
smoke. Axle grease will begin to de-
sert the kitchens and resume it's prop
er occupation in the wagon shops.

Mr.. A. w. Carter has lately become
a trustee of the Bishop Estate. Judging
from the vigorous way in which he has
addressed himself to all sanitary meas
ures during the time OF the plague, we
think he will prove a useful accession

A steamer (the Strathgyle) now on
the way from Japan with part Of a
cargo of Oriental foodstuffs for Homo
lulu. will not be permitted to land it,
but will be passed on to San Diego. her
next port of destination. AS the
steamer belongs to the line which is
supposed to have brought the plague
here in the first place. San Diegans
will do well to watch out for her and
keep their distance. We trust tina; the

NEEDED IMPROVEMENTS.

.
The longer the people of Honolulu
look at the conditions about them the
more they are persuaded that a vast
sum of money must be spent before
this city can be put into a proper sani-
tary condition and the more they are
determined to make the outlay.
The crying needs of Honolulu may
be summarized as follows:
One. A complete sewer system with
device for flushing it with salt wa
ter, the system to reach every inhabit-
ed structure within the radius of the
judicial district of Honolulu so as to
meet the certain growth of the popula-
ton in the next few years and to en-
able laws to be passed and enforced
abo.ishing cesspools.
Two. A garbage crematory backed
and supported by laws providing for
the collection and ineineration of
household refuse and compelling regu-
lar delivery, to the authorized scaven-
ger, Of such refuse.
Three. A public cemetery at a suffi-
cient distance from the inhabited SUBJ
urbs of the city to answer the prob
abe requirements of the next fifty
years. Also the prohibition of further
burials in the old cemeteries, save in
family plots, where sufficient room ex-
lists for interments.
Four. The construction of larger
reservoirs in the Nuuanu valley, ac-
cording to the plans now and for
.ong time past on file in the Depart
ment of the Interior, and the installa-
ton of filtering plants there and else
where, to assure water at all times
that is fit to drink.
Five. The widening of streets that
are too narrow and the projection of
alleys through long business blocks
and where practicable in the rear of
such structures.
Six. The reclamation of lands which
lie too low to be fit for habitation and
The presence of which, within the con-
fines Of the city, promote malarial fe-
vers and other diseases.
Honolulu not only needs every one
of these improvements, but must get
them. Otherwise the city will have to
pay for recurring epidemics. There
are, OF course, other necessary improve
ments, such as the increase of harbor
facilities, which is a Federal charge,
but those We have listed take prece-
dence on the ground that the first law
Of nations as well as OF nature is self
preservation.
The fnanciering of such a vast
scheme of improvement must, of
course, resolve itself into bonded
debt. The surplus now in the treasury
may disappear before we are through
with the plague; at any rate, what Is
left will not be enough to cover all
the projects we have enumerated.
Bonds must come If anything adequate
Is to be done. San Francisco tried for
years to get on without them and has
now decided to build for posterity and
let posterity bear part of the cost. In
the case of Honolulu we may proftably
do the like and at the same time, in
the way of contemporary benefit,
put the city in sanitary shape.
Meanwhile anything that can be
spared from the surplus for works of
permanent sanitary value ought not
10 be withheld.

A Dutch minister, lately arrived in
the Transvaal from Holland, was re-

farmer for having expressed doubts Of
the reality of personal devil. 81 car

and, taking down his family Bible
which was adorned with woodcuts OF
an antique type, he turned to a present

horns and tail. "There!" exclaimed
the Boer, triumphantly, you have
doubts about the existence of the devil
There is a picture of him, and that is
the Word of God" The Boer had fully
believed the artist, as well as the writ
ers, to have been inspired

The revolver is playing a more and

The Seventeen Club.

The story of Senator Depew's dinner
club, to which he has belonged these
sixteen years, which dimes on the third
Saturday of each month in New York,
and once a year goes out of town for
a feed, reminds Victor Smith of the
Seventeen Club. 1t Is made up of
seventeen millionaires whose Offices are
in New York's financial district, which
dimes on the last Thursday of each
month, and once a year feeds, in any
part of the world where the president
may happen to direct. More than. once,
it is said, the entire party had suddenly
taken ship for Europe to obey the
behest of the absent leader, who may
have prepared feast at Dresden, Mos
cow, Cairo, Copenhagen or Sahara's
biggest oasis. Death alone can excuse
a member. The fine for non-attendance
Is $1,000.

Minister Young has broad and lib

Proyements, and all of them ought to
bo carried out. Neglect of many Of
the enterprises he suggests has brought
~ heavy fines. One of the first things
bo do when the city gets to be mu-
nicipality should be to adopt COM
prehensive scheme OF public utilities.
Whatever can be done now to antici-
pate such action will be well done, for
the necessity of a complete sewer sys-
tenn and filtration plant is urgent.

In many sections of the forest lands
of the south during the dry seasons
man may walk for miles without find
ing stream of water or a spring by
which to quench his thirst. IL, how
ever, he Is an experienced hunter and
woodsman, he will not have to drink
water from the stagnant pools In order
TO keep life in his body.
Queer as 1t may seem, an experienced
man can hunt for days through such
dry trncts and yet experience no in
convenience on account of the lack of
water. Nature has provided n mears
which is only known to the Initiated.
Every old huntsman carries with him
when going OIL long hunt a, small au-
ger. by which he can secure refresh
ing drink and water to cook with at
any moment.
A cottonwood tree or willow Is the
well which the willy huntsman taps.
He examines each tree until he finds
one that has what woodsman calls
"vein.' 1t Is simply an attenuated

flow out. 1t is not sap. but clear. pure
water. The huntsmen say that the
water Is better than the average to be
had from ordinary wells. There is no
sweetish taste about 1t, but 1t has a
strong flavor Of sulphur and Is slight

The reason for this phenomenon can

In other words, that there is more at
