ANTI NOISE.

And now it is "noiseless milk The
name is certainly odd, but there are
things about it worth considering
/ %Noiseless milk is only another term
for a new method by which the deliv-
Eery Of the Tactical fluid at ones back
idoor can be done without rouslng the
ineighborhood by the changing Of milk
cans, rafting of wagon wheels, siam
Inning of gates and the pounding OF
heaviy-shod feet on the back lanai. It
has been proposed by a longtime suf-
ferer from nightly Interruptions of sleep
by these demons of the dark, yclept
drivers of milk wagons, to have their
wagons rubber-tired the boots and
shoes of the drivers shod with rubber
heels and soles and to put rubber mats
where the two-gallon cans are deposit
ed while the milk is being measured
Further than this he has even gone so
far as to propose putting rubber bump
ers on the cans. If such a system is
introduced in Honolulu it Is possible
that one may sleep in peace.
The Dietetic and Hygienic Gazette
says that dairyman whose dairy was
near Indianapolis, was taken sick and
went to the Hoosier capital for treat
ment, and while there lying in bed con-
! valescing he was greatly annoyed by
being awakened at an unearthly hour
each morning by the man delivering
milk. This caused him to improve his
/ idle hours by developing a scheme to
! furnish "noiseless milk" AS soon as
he got we'll he had all his milkmen shod
with rubber heeled and soled shoes and
| rubber tires were put on his wagons. He
y-a So fo,. 81 Tt, l., 4 a
| with rubber shoes and then began to
exploit his 'noiseless milk" The result
has been immense. His business has
quadrupled and his "noiseless milk
has gained great popularity.
| If the milkmen of Honolulu will but
heed this advice 1t is possible that their
customers might even make their or
ders larger for the tactical fluid 1t is
only too certain that the noise and din
produced by the milkmen during the
wee sma' hours of the morning, when
only the ghosts, the reporters and the
milkmen are supposed to be abroad in
the land, would be decreased to such an
extent that they would become a bless
ing to the community instead of a
bane.
In the larger cities where asphalt
paVements are more frequently en-
countered the rubber-tired vehicles
have reduced greatly the noise of the
streets both day and night. Many
people are learning the advantage of
the rubber heeled shoes. A physician
says that the use of rubber tires on
his buggy saves much wear and tear
on the vehicle, and on the same prilici-
PIE he believes that the man or woman
who wears rubber heeled shoes will be
protected and life will be prolonged.
He says: THE cement walks OF the
city are not the walks that nature
made for men. They are hard and un-
ylelo1hE and every step is a shock TO
the human system, but with the rubber
heels this unnatural inelasticity of the
CITY SIDEWALK is counterbalanced and
the person steps lightly and briskly
along. feeling that 1t is a real low to
be alive"

There only remains now George Wal
lace, the first minister of the Second
Congregation of the Cathedral. who
from a worldly point of view enjoyed
the only plum" the diocese had to Of
fer. 1t must be confessed that the
cause of his departure is not quite
clear Was it as an act of self-denial
that he exchanged Honolulu for Sioux
Falls? Perhaps the Second Congrega-
ton can explain. One thing is sure.
He did not leave on account of any
differences with the Bishop. If he anu
his diocesan did not always agree, the
relation between them was not strain
ed. Moreover, while he was minister
there was no hard and fast line drawn
between the Cathedral and the Second
Congregation, 1t being Mr.. Wallace's
practice to attend the early celebration
of the Holy Communion in the Cathed-
raj with some members of his flock

SUBJECT OF CANTERBURY.

Apropos of the long standing Epfsco-
| pal controversy here, the following
from Bishop Willis periodical, the Do
cesar Magazine for April, is both inter-
esting and important. 1t is published
under the caption, THE Relations of the
See of Honolulu to Canterbury Are
Unchanged:"
By the s. s. Ventura, on February
q. the Bishop of Honolulu received a
circular letter from the Archbishop of
Canterbury, addressed to him as Bishop
of one of the fourteen independent di-
oceses of the Anglican Communion,
with reference to his vote for repre-
sentative of the Body of Independent
Bishops (aforesaid) on a Consultative
Body now being created to sit yearly at
Lambeth, in the month of July.
The formal announcement thus made
that the church in Hawaii is an indie
pendent diocese of the Anglican Com
munion subject to the Archbishop of
Canterbury, should be argument enough
to convince the church in America
that it is unrepresented in this part
of the United States. The American
church cannot under its canonical law
be represented on American soil by an
Anglican church.; 1t must have its own
branch If any. In no other part OF the
Union has it avoided it's responsible
ties: and it cannot avoid them here
without practically surrendering its
prerogative and leaving American
Episcopalians to either attend foreign
church, identify themselves with one
which, for it's attitude in favor of the
American connection has been de
nounced as schismatic, or stay away
from church altogether
To impartial observers here it would
seem to be the manifest duty of the
American Bishops If they care for the
progress of the church in this Terri
tory, to establish a mission here. This
would leave an Anglican church for
Anglican communicates, and at the
same time ordain an American church
for American communicates. 1t would
then become a question of taste with
the Archbishop of Canterbury or with
the English Episcopate whether to con-
tinue the Anglican branch diocese on
American soil. The subject could be
properly left to the parties at interest,
the church in America merely concern
ing itself with the interests of Ameri-
can churchmen who are now without
the ministrations to which they are
accustomed.
AS things are now the Episcopal in
after long years of English jurisdiction.
Is it not about time for the American
church to try it's hand?

CALLED JADE WINCES.

What is known in the parlance Of
Legislatures as a grand stand play"
was made yesterday by the Home Rul-
ers who have shown themselves unduly
eager to pass the Tramway franchise
bill. After much irritable talk they
made up a committee whose business
4 1t will be to investigate" a charge,
voiced by a native paper, thatf the
Tramway men had sold out to Pain for
81, 500. OF the merits of this charge we
scannot speak; but the only thing about
= 1T which causes surprise in the COM
munity is the bargain counter cheap
ness of the sum named. The Tramway
company is rich enough to stand more.
q An attempt was made to get a COM
mittee together to look into the free
lunch story, but the prime mover of the
scheme, upon sober second thought,
gconcluded to draw off. We are rather
sorry he did So for there is a great
4 deal in the Nolte incident that might
entertain the public. However the
facts may come out later in Grand Jury
proceedings.
The truth is, the Home Rulers who
9support Pain are getting themselves
Gin a bad box, owing partly to the num-
Der of things they do not attempt to
explain. Let US enumerate some of
them: -
1. What public good would be SUBJ
gserved by granting a fifty-year fran
Ichise to street car corporation which
sgives a wretched service and which UNI
der the franchise bill is not required
nor does it agree, to improve that SER
vice?
II. If there has been no corruption
fused or attempted on behalf of the
Franchise, why did, the manager of the
sTramway company pay bill of be-
tween $500 and $500 incurred by the
Header of the Home Rule party? What
Hdid said manager expect to get In re-
turn?
q III. Who has furnished the money
paid by Home Rule leader nearest to
the Tramway people for the restaurant
meals of legislators who support the
franchise job?
s If the aggrieved legislators would
answer these questions satisfactorily
and in way to relieve them of the
suspicion they acknowledge to exist,
+ there would be no need of an investi-
cation committee

FAMILIAR But UNTRUE

u The chance to dig at the Board OF
Health is one that DR.. Russell cannot
spermit himself to miss. He says in
plain terms, ignoring the fact that the
I'ecent plague scare was coincident with
a nearly empty treasury that plaques
are only started when the treasury is
s'ull. This is a familiar jibe but it does
Snot bear analysis. In the small pox
and cholera visitations the public
strong box was not much in evidence;
sand an inspection of the plague bills
will show that but a small percentage
of the outlay of last year was ques-
,Eionable. 1t must not be forgotten that
Che sanitary fires thrust more than half
Che Asiatic population on the Govern
nent for lodging and food: and that
4he cost of running gigantic free
boarding house for many weeks was
necessarily large and at the same time
unavoidable. Much money had to be
gpent, but the outlay brought results
which kept our sugar cargoes from be-
Eng dumped overheard at foreign ports,
were the coffee cargoes from plague
Infected Bahia, thus saving the Terri
sery a loss of millions, which, unlike
Che so-called loss of treasury money.
3gry funds were not lost; they were
Imply taken out of the surplus created
nainly by postal and customs receipts
Ind put in circulation among the peo-
Bile. There was threatening strin-
8ency of money here before the plague
kroke out owing to the Government
soard-a stringency which made loans
Impossible at the banks, which made an
8bnormal rise In private rates of inter-
ST and which disheartened business
hen. About the only good thing the
Hague did, aside from bringing about
n Improvement in the sanitation of the
own was to open the flood gates of the
sceasury for the benefit Of the people.
But that this was the cause of the APP
earance of the plague is a theory
Shich hardly does credit to Senator
sussel's good sense.

! DR.. Russell, in the thoughtful and
lucid interview which appears else
where, advances a new idea which will
be read by the friends of the Dispen-
3sary bill with varied emotions. He
shows that, under the proposed law. the
retail liquor dealers need not, neces-
sarily, seek pastures new, but may en-
gage in the business of manufacturing
spirits to supply the Dispensary. The
Question thus arises whether the cause
of public morality would gain by the
,crea ton of such an industry. In form
Ter years, when it was proposed to make
rum from native sugar and turn these
Islands into another Jamaica, the idea
was opposed and the project defeated
by the temperance people. Have times
lchanged and men with them? The
Question is one which, we submit to
DR.. Russell, ought to be studied care
fully, for new generation is on the
stage which caught no Impressions
from the old debate. Such novel ideas
Jas DR.. Russell advances but strengthen
us In the plea that, before the Dispen-
sary dill is pushed for passage, the
public and a Legislative commission
fought to be given a chance to study it
in all it's protean phases.

and labor to gathering materials for q

the name Chicago was derived from

that it took that name from the guam
