WAKE A THOROUGH JOB.

We hope the citizens OF Hawaii. all
the islands counted in, will unite to
make Honolulu a healthy city and VIII
oppose no project no outlay which
has that end in view A plague here is
not an injury to Honolulu or Oahu
alone; IL affects the reputation, the
safety and the income of the whole
group. For the common welfare. that
OF Hawaii, Kauai, Molokai and Maui as
we'll as of oahu, nothing should be left
undone 20 make this as healthy a port
as nature intended it TO be.
We have tolerated epidemics too
long. There was an epidemic of small
pox in 1853 which cost between $500
and 5000 lives; another in 1872 which
cost 81 lives; another in 1881. lasting
seven months. during which there were
$50 cases and 2S2 deaths. The recent
cholera epidemic was not stamped out
until over go lives had been lost. Now
we have the bu5onic plague which up
to date has cost not less than 10 lives.
If things are allowed TO drift back as
they were We may have the plague a.
often as we have had small pox and
perhaps get the yellow fever besides.

OPERA AT THE oRPHEUM.
The Lyrics Do a Trip to Japan in
the Mikado Tonight.

Mikado, the masterpiece ot Gilbert
and Sullivan, is TO be presented to-
night. Mikado enjoys the reputation
of being considered by many the most
tuneful and picturesque of all modern
light operas. II possesses certainly the
combined advantages of pure harmony,
catchy melodies, a sparkling libretto
in Gilbert's style with a romantic plot,
and, as a background for the whole.
the aesthetic surroundings and COS
tunes of Japan.
New arrangements have been made
to give the opera the requisite sur
rOundings. New scenery has been
painted and a great many properties
gathered together that with the flower
ing plants and bizarre lanterns indis-
pensible 10 japanese plays will make
the stage a very pretty and effective
frame for the performances.
MikadO went very well at the pre-
viOus rendition. Kunkel as the Mika-
do, Henderson as the Lord High Exc
cutiOner; Hallam as the Wandering
Minstrel with the absurdities of Joel,
helped to make the opera a success.
Miss Mcneil carried off the honors of
the fairer artists as Katisha while Miss
Stanton as Yum Yum was very dainty
and sweet, The Moon and !. making
a distinct hit. Miss Andrews and the
other little girl from school were most
fetching also.
The makeups were we'll carried out
features and the opportunities of the
quaint cOstuming were used to their
full advantage. MikadO is so distinct
ly apart from all other operas save
perhaps the Geisha, with its odd pos
turing, its quaint music and withal so
charming that it will probably be sung
to delighted audiences long after the
present generation has departed.

A NEW PROBLEM.

a fresh question, connected with
the plague, will soon present itself to
the people of Honolulu. What is to be
done with the quarantined persons
who, having passed the prescribed
time at the detention camps, must
d. leave them to make room for others
Where are they to go? By the middle
of this week two hundred will be dis
charged providing the plague does not
break out among them meanwhile and
hereafter, if the detention camps re-
main immune, the discharges will run
from 500 to 1900 weekly until the
camps are cleared.
These people are and will be from
lne burned part of Chinatown. Their
homes and business places, having
been destroyed and their friends being
residents OF the infected district, they
must look for quarters outside. They
cannot s~atter over the island in search
of plantation work because of the
quarantine of the city's judicial dis

want them and because many, being
merchants, clerks, bookkeepers and
other sedentary people, are not quail
fed for hard manual labor. Unless
some place is provided for them to eat
and sleep in shall We not have a large
body or Asiatics on our hands whose
hardships will make them desperate?
1t seems essential that the homeless
poor-the industrious people whose
dwellings and stores have been sent up
in smoke for the public good and who
are now the wards of the Board of
Health-should be provided with camps
where they can live and be fed until
Chinatown is recreated for them.
These camps should be at once COM
Portable and sanitary; they should
have ample sleeping accommodations
and a well-organized commissariat and
be located where, in case the plague
should break out among them. the rest
of the community would not be i'm
perilled. All this involves large ex-
pense to some one and the question is,
Who? The Board of Health has its
hands full; the Chinese benevolent as
sociations are swamped; the apprOpria-
ton made by the Council of State is
no more than may be needed in fight
ing the plague.
1t strikes us that the expense of
caring for discharged Asiatics and
natives could be fairly assumed by the
planters and merchants. The suppress
sion of the plague means millions to
commerce; it's continued existence
means enormous losses. 1t is but fair,
therefore, that a part of the burden of
the hour should rest directly upon the
shoulders of this business community;
fairer by long odds than that the ISL
ands as a whole should bear the cost,
through drafts on the common treas
ury. of an affliction which is local to
Honolulu We therefore suggest that
the merchants and planters take the
matter up at once. No time can be
lost for, as we say, discharges from
the camp will begin this week. What
then?

see no reason why they should not be

just as essential to keep the people

matter might be referred with a cor

drastic and may yet take the form of
the condemnation of all Chinatown.
IL every structure in the district could
be burnt, the ground entirely cleared,
every cesspool emptied and filled up
with clean sand, lime and sulphuric
acid and the site plowed over and the
loose earth soaked with kerosene and
fired, We should not only conquer the
plague but lay out the ground plan Of
a sanitary Honolulu. On the site of the
old Chinatown a new one, conforming
to wise building plans would soon
arise. IL would be a Chinatown with
broad streets and alleys, sewers, pave
ments plenty of light and air and a
sanitary police. After getting that and
insisting on cleanliness throughout the
town, Honolulu could begin advertis-
ing itself as a. health resort with a

New York Sun.


OF all the poor creatures who take
sides against their country, the Hon.
Richard Franklin Fettigrew is the poor
est. 1t is not enoug.l for him to coddlc
the Tagalogs. He has to apologize for
the Boxers and to blame the Americans
in China for having been in danger of
death and the administration for having
protected them:
"When the missionaries found they
were in danger, they should have sought
places of safety; and Conger should have
done likewise. The Chinese have given
us no justification for sending an army
there"
pettigrew has egged on the Tagals to
shoot Americans. He disapproves pro-
tecting Americans in China. What an
ornament to the senate of the United
States! Yet he is only carrying TO an
extreme the doctrine of anti-imperialism.
