MORE LIGHT.

The best safeguard against footpads
is electric light. The deeds of the city
highwayman are always deeds of dark
ness; ne does not prowl in the daytime
and at night he always seeks the
murkiest spots. A city that is flooded
with light cannot harbor him and will
be equally untenable for his friend the
burglar. The reason why two hold-ups
have occurred on Punahou street within
six weeks is entirely one of electric
lighting, there being two blocks there
which are dark enough to serve the
purposes of any Jack Turpin who wants
to take a road agency" BY letting
the electric blaze into them Jack will
have to find some other hiding place.
The fact lends interest to the proposal
to increase and extend the government
electric light service and give every
part of the city the benefit of it. 1t is
possible that the coming municipality
in the development of NOR, water pow
or, can provide such a SER fc so cheap
1y that Honolulu will be the best lighted
city west of Chicago.

CABLE DAY CELEBRATION.

cable Day will be made one of The
xaar,orable occasions in Honolulu's
chronology, and fittingly so, for the ar
rival of the Silvertown, with the enc
of the copper wire which will bear sc
many messages, fraught with grea'
meaning, will be an event second only
in Importance to annexation. 1t Will
mean, as did the other, stability, FOR
with knowledge as to the markets OF
the world there will be parity of values
and equality of prices.
1t would be impossible to enumerate
the variety of ways in which electric
communication with the world VIII tend
to make Hawaii a business center.
Already there are to be seen the signs
which indicate the coming of greater
fleets of merchant ships. The prospec-
tive French line viii give new connec-
ton with the South Seas and with the
coming of the great Jim" Hill liners
from Sound ports there will be an adj
ded evidence of the Importance of Ho-
noiuIu as a mid-seas capital.
With all the advantages in prospect
it would be unlike Honolulu to permit
the day of the opening of the line to
pass without ceremonious celebration.
Governor Dole sounded the note when
he declared that he favored peoples
day, with music, addresses, public re-
ceptions and fireworks as opposed to
a mere formal banquet where the few
might voice their rejoicings. The four
as will enable the various elements of
our cosmopolitan population to find
pleasure in the exercises which will
mark the event and certainly every
citizen will have cause to join in the
merry making which will mark the
epoch in Island history.
The only element which will be lack
ing will be the presence of one of the
general officers of the company to whose
progressiveness must be credited the
contamination of the hopes of a genera
ton. The leaders in the great enter
prise however will be at the other end
of the wire and will be able to know
Instantly the feeling which will animate

SCHWAB ON THE
USES OF WEALTH

PARIS, November 27.-Since the ar
rival of President Schwab's parents,
mother-in-law and brether-in-law the
millionaire has recovered his old time
gayety. He is devoted to his mother,
and strolls and drives with her daily.
The Enquirer correspondent chatted
with Mr. Schwab about the pleasures
and disabilities of wealth.
Pointing to table in the room, Mr.
Sehwab said:
Look at that heap of cards, tele-
grams and letters which l have receiv-
ed since the papers announced my ar
rival in Paris. Behold the power of the
press. / have worked upon that pile
until l am tired. l intend to instruct
the clerks not to send up any more
yes, there is pleasure in riches if
properly employed. Their use should
be altruistic, not selfish. The old
teaching that we can do what we
please with our own is wrong. Wealth
means responsibility; more wealth, more
responsibility. Observe how the Ger
man Emperor is realizing the response
bility and how, he works necessarily
to the end that wealth may make the
path of life a little easier. The man
who helps others judiciously feels bet
ter for it. All this reyerts to the
brotherhood of man.
Wealth has drawbacks under certain
circumstances. 1t attracts undue pub
lieity; it tends to make public aspects
of life which should be private. It is
harder for men of wealth to find rest
than men of moderate means. There is
wisdom in the phrase, give me neither
poverty nor riches
but all depends on the use made of
it, for wealth increases ones opportun-
ity of doing good. That's the meaning
Of Shakespeare's counsel, Put money
in thy purse The path of the wealthy
is not always strewn VITA roses. The
editorial says:
'Honesty's essence is religion
assume that honesty implies truth.
Some newspapers once accused a men,
Der of my family of being successful
speculator. She does not know the diff
ference between stocks and bonds'

1t is rather a pity that the news of
the capture and conviction of Rod
riguez, the man who robbed General
Miles party, will not travel so far as
that of the robbery itself. The impress
sion that even a General of the Army
could not protect himself from the
light-fngered gentry in Hawaii, was
spread broadcast by the Associated
Press, but few will hear that it only
took three days to find the criminal and
only three months to land him in prison
for three years. With so alert a police
service Honolulu and its tourists do not
need to fear for their property even in
the rare instances where it gets away
from them.

Injured by the accidental discharge of
s. shotgun, while he and two compan-

were driving in a wagon at the time

caused the discharge of the gun. The
load of shot grazed the head of one of
the men and tore away the flesh of
Garrettson's upper arm to the bone. A

for a surgeon who went to the house
where Mr.. Garrettson was being cared
for, accompanied by Mrs. Garrettson.
