SENSiBLE WORDS.

Mr.. Allen Herbert in letter to the
Advertiser touches notes which find
a dear response from all wholove Ha-
in brilliant foliage, should surround
tho residences of rich and poor. Mr..
Herbert objects to prisoners being
marched around the streets instead
of working on farms. We have been
in jail but fail at this moment to
remember whether Mr. Herbert was
there, but we are not sure that man
slaugnters "Hooligans" and similar
offenders would receive just punish
ment by grating roses and twining
lima leis, instead of breaking rocks.
The letter of our friend Mr.. Her
bert formerly of lielsingborg and the
Hawaiian Hotel is interesting and we
take the liberty to republish it in full
1t reads:
Our public institutions should re-
ceiye our earnest and most careful
consideration. First, they contain the
unfortunate wards of the Territory;
second, we eXpend biennially for their
maintenance large sums of money.
No committee of the Legislature or
any person, by merely visiting our
reform school and prison, can there
by estimate the reforms needed there
in. Why the prisoners at Oahu jail
and the boys at the Reform School
should be turned loose, g prey on So
ciety, instead of being reformed ana
taught to maintain themselves out
OF iail when liberated is wrong and
cannot be explained.
Prisoners should be compelled to
labor so as to be self-supporting, thus
relieving the taxpayers from the bur
den of their maintenance. Beyond
this point they should not be permit
ted to engage in remuncratlVe work,
and they should be so directed as to
produce the least friction with free
labor Our road supervisors have told
the waiter tnat it takes three prisoners
to do one mans work, and that they de-
stroyan unnecessary lotof tools. There
is no city that we know of where the
prisoners are paraded through town
four times a day 1t is degrading to
the man who is confined for some
minor offense against the law. 1t is
degrading and humiliating to his
friends and relatives, and has ten
dency to harden him and add to his
burdens. Such man should be put
to work in the country on Govern
ment farm.
If my suggestion could be carried
out, on the 5000 acres of magnificent,
rich land which | have tried to de-
scribe in a previous issue, the prison
ers could by their work produce sup
plies not only for themselves but for
other Territorial institutions, such as
hospitals and asyslums. 1t does not
take so very long to teach man,
boy or girl to be familiar with diver
siled agriculture, and how to care for
and produce beautiful flowers, fruit
and vegetables. The work, we all
Know, is interesting we can ma
gine to ourselves what a paradise the
now worthless tracts might be made;

Pupukea, 4,3G5 acres, with the rail
road and telephone lines running
through them, facing on the sea for
over five miles. With a steam plow,

Her Heart Cannot be Bound by Con- tract Under Seal.
 Love laughs, we know, at locksmiths
 He also laughs at signed agreements.
 This was the melancholy lesson which a young German had to learn in his inter- view with the magistrate at the Thames police court He had been courting a young lady and when she blushingly gave her consent to his offer of hand and heart, he, with the practical instinct of a victoriously commercial race, made her affix her signature to written document, by which she made herself over to him. Then followed the pres ents which custom demands-a watch, to regulate the beatings of her heart; engagement rings, to prefigure the eventual hoop of gold, and handsome hat, we presume for the reason that Gainsborough's Duchess has made handsome hats the vogue. But the hat in the case of this domestic story, as we'll as in that of the admirable Duch- ess proved very expensive. Ladies who appear thus adorned must inevi- SAAN first step in a desire to possess. Some other young man, attracted by her fas- cinatng headgear, made love to the Germans affianced damsel, and a cruel letter explained that "all was over" be- tween the parties to the first engage ment Naturally enough, the German refused to admit his defeat. What was the use of that formal contract, know all men by these presents" if both the lady who signed the document and the presents he had lavished on her were to be lost to him forever? At least, the watch, the rings, the hat ought to be his, for they had only been given after the paper had been sgned, and given, therefore, on particular understand ing. "We had agreed to be married; the things belonged to her and she would belong to me"--such was the logical ar gument by which the plaintiff sought to convince the magistrate of the Thames. police court The dialogue ought clear ly to be written in an Olendorf11an spirit-"I give thee the watch, the rings and the hat Where are the watch, the rings and the hat which have given thee? If thou dost not give myself to me I will take back the watch, the rings and the hat.' Unhappi1y, the free Eng fish custom of pledging one's troth does not include the logical exercises of Teutonc grammar book. Gifts from one lover to another remain mere gifts, even though a written agreement be in the background, and it is the privilege of fair and fickle woman to change her mind So the German had to go discon- solately away, with the ironical comfort administered to him that he might, per- haps. seek to recover his goods in the county court. But what serves the duly seated and perfectly attested paper if the never to- be- sufficiently criticised high Thames police court magistrate his only justice desiring applicants thus with contumely dismisses ?-London Telegraph.

The late Sir John Stainer. one Of

Stainer was In the smoking room Of

the delighted parson. Il will do my

The service passed or all right, but
the congregation, instead Of rushing

recital When the parson heard the

Stainer was a great story teller. One
