Sending THE JAPS HOME.
THE IMMIGRATION BUREAU HAS
PHOTOGRAPHS
All Can be Found-Forty Steamers
Would be Needed and Considerable
Force of Troops.

Uncle Sans immigration bureau here
has a picture of every contract laborer
that has come into the country since
the bureau was established, together
with a description and a record show
ing where he or she has gone. If it
comes to matter of deporting them
there will not be much trouble about
finding them, though making them
pack up and board steamer for the land
of the chrysanthemum will be a very
different thing.
AS the Japs have landed here they
have all been taken to quarantine ISL
and, where they We're duly bathed and
held in quarantine long enoug to salts
fy the doctors While in quarantine
each one was photographed and given
number and as they left record was
made of the plantations which they
were sent.
The force of employees of the immi-
grafton bureau or some other bureau
Will have to be slightly increased be-
fore there will be much success in de-
porting the laborers. Visiting the diff
ferent plantations with punches of
photographs to find the originals there
of Will be slow work. Inspector John
w. Short says he can find any Jap in
the lot by digging up records and go
ing to the plantation where he is eX-
cepting a few who may have. moved or
nave been lost in the shuttle. But it
would require good many men to pick
out. the originals of 10000 photographs
in any reasonable period of time and
over forty steamers would be required
to- lSend them home.
The forty steamers and the big force
of Jap-hunters are not all that Uncle
Sam would have to provide if he start
ed to send home the Mikado's subjects
that are affected by the De Almond
amendment. 1t is the opinion of many
that very serious riots would occur on
some of the plantations. The free lab
orers would be likely to join with their
contract brethren and there would have
to be troops on hand to control the sit
uation.
Altogether, it would appear that De
Almond wants to give the national
government a task in Hawaii nei that
would almost compare with the tre-
mendous job in the Philippines.

SAILORS AND TOWN PEOPLE OUT
OF LUCK.
Associated Charities with Hands Fun
is Making a Noble Fight to Relieve
Distress-Deserting Sailors.

Mrs. Berger, manager Of the Asso-
ciated Charities Of Hawaii, is just now
wrestling with an unusual and at the
same time q very difficult work in her
effort tG find employment for the idle
and feed the destitute. The lady is
busy as she never has been before, and
yet but little can be accomplished.
MostOf the applicants for help in the
past few days have been sailors who
have deserted from ships in port. All
belong to deep water vessels. Becom-
ing restless aboard their vessels they
have come ashore and thus broken the
quarantine. It was then impossible to
get back, they being held up by the
health authorities. The various consuls
have refused to do anything, as the
men are the authors of their own trou-
bles and the masters of the ships do
not want them back as long as quaran-
tine keeps up. The sailors have spent
their money and are now on charity.
"In the past few days I have had
numerous calls of this sort" says Mrs.
Berger. tiThey have no money and no
thing Is DO. Most of them say they
would gladly return to their ships il
they could, b0t of course they will not
.be allowed to do that The greatest
difficulty in my way, and in their way
as well, is that I can not recommend
them. They are deserters, which is ac-
counted bad in some eyes. Besides al
most without exception they have fol-
lowed the sea all their lives and do not
know how to work on shore. OF course
they are competent to do ordinary road
work or something of that sort 1 SUI
pose. The best I can do is to give them
meal tickets and in some cases find
lodgings for them. Out of about twenty
applications in the past few days for
work fourteen were sailors of this
class.
"I have quite a number of applica-
tions from landsmen in the trades for
work and do my best TO find something
for them. Such as carpenters, paint
ers, drivers, yardmen and most any,
thing of that class can usually supply.
1 would send what can be safely rec
ommended."
The quarantine is of course respon-
sible for the conditions pointed out by
Mrs. Berger. While the sailors are
themselves to blame for getting into
quarantine on shore, they probably de-
serve a great deal of sympathy. The
other class, the good workers have
been thrown out of employment by the
quarantine and the closing of many
contracts. When the situation clears
their condition-will be greatly improv-
ed. Just now the society is struggling
with a. massive and important under
taking and stands in need of hearty and
general support.

RAIN ON kauai.

. The steamers from Kauai report that
the unprecendented drought on the
windward side of Kauai was broken
last Thursday by copious rains continu-
ing through several days. Before the
rains the streams had nearly dried up,
and the whole country was prey of
dust blown in great clouds everywhere
by the winds. which for days had been
devoid of moisture. The rains laid the
dust, put the roads in good condition
again. and started the streams babbling
and singing on their way to the sea.
At least, that is the way James w. Cir
vim describes the transformation.

AN UNsELFIsH ACT.

There are many reasons to be adj

there are none against 1t, Buying life
insurance for ones family is an unsel-

much relief from care, and so much

BUBONIC PLAGUE.
Central Thought of the Court of Claims
Seal.

Even if the Court of Claims is never
heard of again, there will always be
something to remember it by-its seal.
The court was awake long enough be-
fore the Council of State put it to sleep
to design, adopt and have made seal.
Impressions from that seal have al
ready become curios.
The design of the seal is the con-
ventional circle with two concentric
circles of lettering surrounding the
even balanced scales of Justice. The
outer circle of lettering is Court of
Claims: Hawaiian Islands" The inner
circle is "Fiat Justitia Ruat Coelum:
Bubonic Plague" The court was sup
pressed sooner than "bubonic plague"

VERYukE THE OPIUM NAN
ARRESTED THREE TIMES IN ONE
DAY.
An Australia Passengers Remarkable
Resemblance to the Opium Manipu-
lator of the Schooner Labrador.

man named Burns, who leaves to-
day on the steamer Australia, has
created a sensation among customs ana
police officers during the past few days,
on account of his remarkable resem-
blance to a man who is badly wanted
by both, especially the customs men.
Three times yesterday he was stopped
on the street by officers and taken for
the opium man, Weinecker, who man
aged to get away from here after being
caught in the biggest opium deal that
has been done here for many years.
Burns looks so much like Weinecker
that even after talking with him 1t is
hard for those who knew the opium
man to tell the difference. Port Sur
veyor Stratemeyer and Chester Doyle
were both deceived by the likness and
accosted Burns as Weinecker. When he
said that his name was Burns. Strate-
meyer asked him If he had any other
name, whereupon the stranger became
Indignant and wanted to know what It
was all about, and why he had been
stopped three times by officers. In con-
versation he satisfied the port surveyor
that he was not the much-Wanted
opium manipulation.
Weinecker is the man who was bring
ing the schooner Labrador here some
years ago, when the port surveyor with
a number of other men went after her
caught her with a full cargo of opium,
near Maui. The vessel and cargo were
confiscated, and Weinecker was arrest
ed. AS he was a very sick man he was
removed from the police station to the
hospital. One day he began to feel bet
ter just as the Miowera was about to
leave. He left the hospital and took
passage on the steamer, and that was
the last that Honolulu saw of him.

THE TABLES TURNED.
A Prosecuting officer Was Locked Up
by "Barefooted Bill"

Charles Creighton has an interesting
recollection of "Barefooted Bill" the
jail-bird who has figured in so many
recent burglaries. When the lawyer
was connected with the attorney gener-
ais department, "Barefooted Bill" who
was then in Jail, slipped into his office
and stole his tobacco and other belong
ings. When the case came up in court
Creighton was prosecuting officer, and
did his level best to stick the man. He
accomplished the feat.
The lawyer forgot Bill" In 1895,
when Mr.. Creighton was taken to Oahu
prison on suspicion of being connected
with the uprising he was locked in a
cell by a native trusty. This fellow
proved to be "Barefooted Bill" Once
the lawyer was on top; now 1t was the
burglars turn. This was suggested to
"Bill' at the time. and he seemed to
enjoy the joke immensely.

CHINESE AND THEIR CONSUL.
An Editorial Relating to Losses by the
Chinatown Fire.

An EulIOrlal Relating 10 Losses by the
Chinatown Fire.
The last number of the Sunu Chung
Wock Bo, the new Chinese reform pa
per, has an editorial in strong satirical
vein, concerning the actions and words
of the Chinese consul in regard to the
losses suffered by Chinese by the fire
of January 20. 1t states that soon after
the fire the consul announced at a num-
Der of meetings of Chinese that he had
been requested by the Hawaiian gov
ernment to urge Chinese sufferers by
the fire to make out their claims as
soon as possible in order that they
might be promptly paid, and that in or
der to do this, clerks and interpreters
would be at the rooms of the United
Chinese Society to assist in making out
the claims and translating them and
putting them in shape for presentation.
But continues the editorial, when the
Court of Claims was organized the or
der of President Dole organizing it did
not bear out the cOnsuls statements.
Therefore either the Hawaiian govern
ment must have misled the consul, or
the consul was trying to mislead the
Chinese. The editorial says it does not
believe the Hawaiian government II led
to mislead the consul.
