of rip" illness having compelled his
father to retire for short interval.
he was in blue funk. If it had been
suggested to him to run away he would
have possibly done it. He was terri
bly, scared. There is great deal at
stake in his word and he has been
very successful. His father said to
him about playing the part: TON,
act it as nearly like | do as you can,
| but if you find line or bit of busl-
ness that you can't copy me in with
ease, do it your own way. My way
may be better or worse, but the best
way for man to act is .the way that
his inner consciousness dictates" In
a letter to his son, Tom. the wise old
comedian says: Remember ability
and early success are of but little use
without honest, earnest and conscien-
tious endeavor. Actors who merely
play for their own amusement regard
less of the public duty have but short
reign" So it would appear that Mr..
Joseph Jefferson has pretty clear
idea of the duties an actor owes to
the public as we'll as to himself.

PROTEST
Against Indulgence Of the
Smoke Habit.
A Citizen Who Acted as Challenger
Airs His Grievance.

To the Editor of the Democrat:
The writer is no cynic but enjoys a
and believes that boys will be boys"
but that is not saying that when in
Rome we should always do as Rome
does" nor that we should silently
submit, when in Rome, to what is de-
basing and disgusting without protest.
AT the late election the writer's duty
required his presence at one of the
polling booths, in what is supposed
to be one of, the best and most moral
precincts of this city, during the
counting of the votes.
Now polling booth is no ten-acre
lot as breathing place and with a
half dozen men sitting there behind
closed doors for hours. the air becomes
pretty stagnant. But air is a dish we
all must feed upon and we have right
to eat it fresh and pure and uncon-
taminated by tobacco fumes or any
thing else that detiles it. Yet on the
above occasion in that very small
room. without regard to the wishes
or welfare of the others, one of the
clerks repeatedly filled and smoked
his pipe to the annoyance and dis
comfort of myself and no doubt that
of others also.
And | raise the question what right
has any man to detile and befoul
heavens pure air in a small room like
that without so much as saying, "by
YOUR leave" to those who must en-
dure, at much discomfort, his lack of
good manners? Are such people the
only, ones who have rights in the
case? They seem to think and act
as if they were the only ones who were
to be consulted. Had this young man
stopped with defiling the air with
smoke, the case would not have been
so aggravating. But it did not. For
he frequently belched forth as foul,
vile aud disgusting language as l ever
heard, and yet there We're election
officers there who heard all this and
made no protest or rcmonstrance
against this language which outraged
decent manners and good morals. Is
the filthy pool becoming more filthy
My ears have heard much of the vile
and vulgar conversation of the streets
and / have been present almost every
year for many years at the counting
out of the votes. many times as q
clerk, especially in the COS, 'T0's, and
even the SOS, but never in all my life
were they regaled by words more vile
and indecent than on the above occa
sion. And | say there ought to be
some relief from such people on such
occasions.

co, Chicago and Indianapolis, in re-
gard to the qualities of the Wellsbach

sci for the Northern Ohio Traction
Company. desired the Council to again
continue the matter because of his in
ability to be. present, at the meeting.

MISCELLANEOUS.
Before Council had adjourned, Pres
ident Fiebeger called Councilman
Brown to the chair. and called the
Councils attention to the manner in
which persons riding on street cars
congregated in rear of cars. He said
great deal of complaint is made by
ladies, especially, who find it very in
convenient in being compelled to force
their way through a crowd Oh the rear
platforms of street cars. President Fie-
bcger believed the company should see
to It that individuals enter the car, or
that an ordinance should be passed in
regard to it. He was i'm favor of allow
ing none but Policemen Firemen and
the Conductor in charge of cars to re-
main on the rear end
Councilman Brady said he would
favor the passage of such an ordinance
provided the privileged persons allow
ed on the rear of cars include smokers.

Holland Sympathy For Beers

The feeling of sympathy for the
Beers in Holland Is astonishing all
Europe by the rapidity with which It is
spreading to the very lowliest inhabi-
tant. A few days ago little boy only
ii entered the Office of a HARLEM pa
per and. emptying his pockets, which
contained all his savings, said: This
Is for the Transvaal." leaving the Office
without giving his name. A bourgeois
of Amsterdam went into the Office of
an Amsterdam paper and deposited
1000 forms. II am not rich" he said,
but my wife and children want me
to give this aid of the Beers" An
officer at Breda called his company
together and asked them IL they wish
ed to subscribe. Without a dissenting
voice all subscribed sums according to
their rank. The servants of The
Hague have formed league for the
purpose of making n fund. to which
they subscribe weekly. Through the
newspapers, by committees, from door
to door, IN the churches, in the schools
everywhere where the public gathers,
collections are being made and mil
lions of forms are being found for the
Beers. A rich citizen of The Hague
proposes to found an orphan asylum
for the children OF the Beers who fall
in the war. In Belgium the sympathy
is nearly as keen and persons with
whom l am personally acquainted are
subscribing 5000, $500 and $500 at a
time. Ambulance corps are being
formed and drilled and doctors are
leaving their practice togo out and
help the Beers. The unanimity of feel
ing Is really extraordinary, and the
English of Antwerp. as well as OF Brus-
sells, are Obliged to keep very quiet.
My own house was stoned recently by
roughs because ! was known to be a
correspondent of the American and
English press.

Measures TO Weed
Out Chinatown

meeting of the Board of Health
with President Dole and members of
the Cabinet, as well as several promi-
neDt citizens, was held last evening.
George w. Smith acted as chairman in
place of President Cooper who was too
tired out to be in attendance.
Chairman Smith announced that the
meeting was for the purpose of con-
sulting with the Cabinet on the China
town question. In the matter of the
destruction of buildings in China
town, the Board of Health wished the
support of the government and of the
people.
President Dole asked as to the num-
Der OF people in Chinatown and Chair
man Smith answered that there were
in the neighborhood of 10000 Chinese
and Japanese.
Dr. Wood made the following state
ment: Where cases have broken out,
| certainly know the habitations are
infected. II any one will take the
trouble to go through there and see
the narrow passageways with house
floors directly on the ground, one can
readily see how infection passes. When
we have burned down buildings, where
cases of plague have occurred, still we
may not have reached the limit OF the
infection In that manner. We find that
the infection was carried across Nuu-
anu street from Ahi's to the place
where two cases occurred and which
caused the burning of two places yes
terday. The physicians are convinced
1t was carried across the street by
rats"
When the Kakaako quarantine mat
ter was brought up Minister Young
stat il as his belief that IL was unsafe
from sanitary standpoint for so many
people to be housed at one place. II
was finally agreed that land at Kalihi
or behind the leper receiving station
were more fit for quarantine barracks.
The medical members of the Board
maintained that, as q whole of the
Chinatown district was infected, the
people should be removed to an abso-
lutely clean place and then the place
should be burned as quickly as pos
sible.
l.. A. Thurston offered the following
resolution which was unanimously
adopted: 1T is the sense of this meet
ing that it is sound policy to remove to
quarantine as rapidly as practicable,
the residents of the Chinatown dis
trict and to take any and every step.
without limit, necessary to stamp out
the plague, including the destruction
of buildings and other property"
DR.. Day then offered the following
resolution, which took the same
course: Il move that the Chairman APP
point a committee of citizens to select
and acquire suitable locality for a
detention camp for persons now resi-
dent In Chinatown or other quarantine
ed districts, and to erect buildings for
the accommodation of such persons
as they shan be advised as to number
by the Board of Health | move that
the chairman appoint committee and
let this be the means that we now take
for combating the plague"
Chairman Smith appointed the fol-
lowing committee to look up a site for
a quarantine barracks: Minister Alex.
Young, l.. A. Thurston, c. Bolte, j.
