It may not have been Intentionally applied, for the authorities set out to burn a part of one block only, but the fire spread until the entire infected quarter was burned over. The homeless ones have been assist ed in various ways, and in the long run in- demnities will perhaps be paid to the suf- ferers
 The fear is that the rats of the infected quarter escaped the fire, and they may carry the germs of the disease to other districts of Honolulu. Time will deter mine this feature of the problem. If the heroic remedy releases from restraint the thousands confined by force in Honolulu's Chinatown, there will be compensation in it at least for all. The fight against the disease will certainly be maintained in Hon. olulu until the disease is stamped out. No city had been perhaps more negligent in sanitation. but no city could have met the seourge with more courage or more freedom from red tape and overnice dlscrimina- fiona

THE "CHRIsTIAN DAILY"

The Rev MT. Sheldon. who is to come in- to the possession for week of the Capital, a daily paper in Topeka, Kan, and to con- duct it on a strictly Christian basis, an- nounces that he will begin his work by rais- ing the price of the paper Is this Christ ian proceeding? It strikes us rather as a proceeding savoring of the money changers who were cast out of a certain place by the founder of Christianity. Some person has sent to MT. Sheldon the following em- barrassing communication: 'If Jesus were to assume the management of the Capital, do you think he would put up the price on us like this the very first dash out of the box?" Christian readers should certainly have as good a chance with a Christian newspaper as worldly readers with a world ly one. It is remembered that the poor also had the gospel preached to them in Jesus day.

Bubonic Plague in Honolulu.

The appearance of the plague in the American town of Honolulusis attracting. especially on the Pacific coast, a great deal of attention. Up to January 24 fifty-five cases had been discovered, resulting in for ty-one deaths. Such a rate of mortality is not new in plague visitations. It is the worst scourge that overcrowding in the Orient has speeded over an unhappy world. Its record in London alone was more frightful than the bloodest battle fields In 1893 it slew in that city 11,50S persons in 1903 the deaths from 1t in that city number. ed 36.269; in 1925 there were S6.50O more; in 1886 the scourge there claimed 13. .lS0 more victims, and in 1865 the death roll contained the names of SS,6Oo. In 116s "the great fire of London" swept over its filthy, narrow, unsewered streets. purifying them. ana putting an end to the dreadful epidemic. London is now well-kept, and the plague shuns 1t.
 Like nearly all diseases. the plague seeks filth.

California Deadlock Broken.

Californa's governor preferred to let the States senate that their own acts had pro- longed. They seem to have no difficulty in that state in recognizing the difference between a recess vacancy and vacancy that did not occur during a recess. They accept the constitution in it's plain and obvious sense The governor of the state reconvened the legislature, and 1t proceeded to fill the vavancy by making Thomas Robert Bard a senator. He received the entire republican vote, MT. Burns, the choice of the railroads, having withdrawn himself from the contest
 Mir. Bard is a Pennsylvanian by birth, and lawyer by profession, and a capital ist and representative of capitalists in fact He went to California to take charge of the land interests of Thomas A. Scott then president of the Pennsylvania railroad. ana ne passed ITOH1 that employment to coal oil production which he has led ever since He Is a millionaire oil operator and producer in California, his county, Ventura. being an oil-producing county. His politi- cal services have been confined to places on the electoral ticket, and to representa- ton as delegate in national conventions
 When he takes his seat and Quay is seat ed in accordance with the present pro- gramme the governors of Utah and Della ware, both democrats, will undoubtedly off, set two democrats. The governor of Del aware is a democrat, but the legislature is not democratic. The governor of Utah is probably convinced that the present 1egis- iature would not agree upon a senatorial choice. The breaking of the deadlocks, therefore, depends to some extent upon the seating of Quay.

Why They Laugh

From the Demopohs Express.
 An amusing incident and one that was not the programme occurred last Mon day night at the opera house. The Core Keene Co. had opened a weeks engagement and were playing My Uncle from Japan" One of the actors made up as an eccentric character came on the stage and immed lately the audience noted the remarkable resemblance between him and the Hon. J. M. Miller. As this recognition flashed over the house it threw the audience into an audible Utter and as the scene at this particular time did not call for any laugh ter the amusement was unaccountable to the actors and for an instant rather upset them. They perhaps thought they were being "guyed" and were naturally a little worried but they got through their work very creditably and are probably even now wondering why the audience laughed at the wrong time.
