The hope OF every book agent in New
York is to be admitted to J. pierpont
Morgan's office in order to show his
wares. 1t is asserted that the more
expensive anything is the more easily
can it be sold to Mr.. Morgan. Some
time ago, according to a story that is
vouched for by a man who has been in
the book business for 20 years, the
widow of we'll known English artist
wrote to Mr.. Morgan offering to dis
pose Of all the paintings, sketches, etc,
her husband had left for $4,000. No
notice was taken Of the letter. Six
months later the widow gave permits
sion to a book agent to try TO dispose Of
the paintings. He took them to Mr..
Morgan and sold them to him for $780,

For great many years past the di-
rectOrs of American roads have con-
sistentIy If pitilessly pursued 4 policy
which they conceived TO be financially
sound and which is the very reverse of
that adopted by railway directors in
this country. After providing for the
interest on the debt the first thought of
an American board is Of the road itself
and its equipment. Their last thought
is of the shareholders. Relentlessly dis
regarding the cries Of the latter for
Dividends every cent OF earnings be-
yond the bond interest is put into the
road and its rolling stock. Betterments
before dividends is the motto of an
American railway president. Precisely
the reverse. as every one knows. is the
policy of English railway boards. Our
directors always divide up TO the hilt
and when they want money for the
road or extensions OF it they issue
fresh capital. Which policy is justified
by the event? American railway shares
have risen and will rise. British rail-
way shares have fallen and will fall

WHEN A PARTISAN BATTLES.
The Difficulties he Encounters In
Taking Hot Dip.

Taking "a Hot Dip.
When a Partisan takes a bath. all
Paris knows it-that is, when he takes
hot bath. The Partisan has a hard
tine keeping clean. That he succeeds
50 we'll is very much to his credit. He
lGbors under the disadvantage Of hav-
ing no adequate supply of water. There
is plenty of water in Paris, to be sure,
and an enormous quantity of it is used
on the streets. All day long men with
lines OF hose which are made in metal
lie sections with flexible joints, each
section mounted on wheels, go up and
down the principal streets and boule-
wards distributing water with q free
hand. The difficulty is not to get wa
ter on the street level, but to get it
above that level, and after that the
great difficulty is to get it hot All but
the very newest of modern houses in
Paris have water only Oh the street
level. This water is carried to the
upper floors Of houses in buckets as
needed. This is true not alone of pri-
vate houses, but Of hotels of the older
type. These abound in Paris, and the
comforts they offer to the traveller are
almost confined to the table.
Moreover, though water may be
drawn in any quantity on the ground
floor, there are no facilities for heating
water. \ hotel keeper may put q ket-
tie On the range and send up a quart
of hot water to your room, but when it
comes to filling a tub he would admit
that it t-as beyond the capacity Of his
establishment. Many Parisians use the
big lighthouses along the Seine. IN
places these houses occupy a greater
part Of the river, but if a Partisan
wants a hot bath at home he must turn
to that time honOred French institu-
ton, che perambulating bathtUb.
To the American who sees this insti-
tuition for the first time traverSing the
principal streets Of the great city it is
very mirth provoking. And he will see
it in almost any part of the city if lie
stays there long enough and moves
about the streets, for the bathman's
houses are distributed all over Paris.
From the bathing establishment the
bathman goes forth in harness. This is
unusual in Paris, where well
dressed men are seen drawing small
wagons of all kinds. The bathman has
two straps over his shoulders. and he
stands between the shafts of a two
cart. On this cart is mounted
q tank. On the tank structure is bal
anccd a substantial bathtub which is
provided with casters. In front Of the
tank are two large metal buckets and a
yoke. The bathman draws this appara-
tus through the streets TO your house

The Hawaiian star. [volume] (Honolulu [Oahu]) 1893-1912, 1901-02-05

Waialua or Kahuku, With a proper
head, an active man, who understood
the care of an institution of this kind,
it might become almost self support
ing. The boys sent to such an insti-
tuition would in the aggregate develop
into good citizens Called an industrial
school there would be no stigma at
tached to residence in the place. 1t
would prove a home to many a waif
and stray who has none now. The
writer has seen and talked to i'll clad,
underfed boys, wandering around our
streets, to whom an institution of this
kind would be haven of refuge, and
whose presence in it would be a guage
of future prosperity and advancement
to the community.
But it is not only the boys that we
must look after. More important still
are the girls. Should the present Re-
form School be moved to Waialee, the
buildings now occupied by the boys,
might be used for an industrial school
for girls. That the homeless and i'll
cared for girls of the community should
be looked after is acknowledged by
every one, yet no Legislature has seen
fit to appropriate money for the pur-
pose. 1t is all very well to attack exc
cutive officers for not doing their duty,
but unless they are supplied with
money for carrying out those purposes,
they cannot be carried out 1t Will go
great way towards reform among
young girls if thee Legislature appro-
pirates sufficient funds for the proper
carrying on of an industrial school for
girls, and authorizes magistrates to
commit. The matter is in the hands
of the Representative Of the People.

BANANAS.

The bananas trade is very impor-
tant one for the Hawaiian Islands, and
any attempt to shut us out from our
markets must be viewed seriously by
the small producer, and the small
handler. There is considerable local
market and the export trade amounts
to about $4,000 year, with always
hope that it will be much enlarged.
The banana planters of the Islands
need not worry too much over the ac-
ton of the Louisiana men. The states
that they control are not tropical
countries. There are frosts to contend
with even in Florida. The Hawaiian
Islands have no frosts to contend with.
There may be a flood of bananas for a
time, but there will also be time when
the banana cannot come from the
South and the supply be entirely cut
off
1t is no surprise to find that the
schemers against our territorial banana
trade are Zuberbicr and Behan. These
names have the fine Italian ring of
Palestine and some of these days Am
orleans will find out that such Italians
are a danger to their progress.
To the poor man settling here the
prospect of banana culture has been
an inducement. AS our means of loco
| motion increased, it was expected that
this industry would increase. There
are lands on the windward and lee
ward side of Hawaii which are ideal
for banana planting and cultivation.
If the territory is to attract American
citizens this banana cultivation will
be one of the inducements. But if Mr..
Zuberbier is going to smash our mar
ket, it only means that so many less
Americans are coming hitherward.
However, as has been said above, the
Louisiana effort to capture the fruit
market in San Francisco, need not be
feared too much. The Louisiana peo-
pie cannot keep their lick up, more
over they cannot produce the variety
or the quality of the bananas grown
on the Hawaiian Islands. The banana
trade may for moment have a set
back, but it will push it's way in time
in spite of anything Mr.. Zuberbier can
do.

No doubt the icemen who have been
employing the waits and strays in car
rying ice have been actuated by the
kindliest of feelings, and knew not that
there was an education law in the Ter
ritory. The action of the police justice
win make them and others understand
that there really is a law upon this
subject. If Honolulu is not careful it
will develop either Hooligans, Hood
lums or LarrilIins, every one Of which
in their respective countries are their
curse, and we do not want to add an
unenviable name to the list.

The steamship companies are begin
ming to bid for the contract from the
Colonies across the Pacific. Some years
ago no one would have been willing to
pick such a contract up. Now there
is somewhat of race to get it. This
kind of competition will go on. The
eldermen of today have little idea of
what is the future of Pacific commerce.
Thirty odd years ago the Pacific hardly
carried one steamer upon its broad
bosom. Now there are numbers which
plough their Way from the West Coast
to Asia, from British Colonies north to
British Colonies south, and from all to
the countless Isles of the sea- 1t is a
great prospect that is opened out.
