SENATE WILL
INVESTIGATE
Committees to Look Into Conduct
Of Each Executive
Department.
(From Saturdays Daily)

Each department and bureau OF the
peyernment will be looked into
by the senate before II adjourns.
This was foreshadowed when yes
terday afternoon, acting upon the
invitation of Governor Dole, that
body decided that there should be in
yestigation made by committees of
each Of the executive branches. and
before the afternoon closing hour had
come the work was well under way.
No time was lost in getting down to
work by the new senate, and the tenn
per of the leaders was clearly for early
action and no loss of time in complet-
ing the work. The senate received four
messages from the executive, two of
them relating to the conduct of the
Audit and Public Works offices. and
asking that the senate consent to the
removals from Office of II. c. Austin
and James II. Boyd. These were or
dered translated and typewriter, so
that the various committees when
have to do with their recommendation
shall have the words of the Governor
before them.
The senate was fully organized be-
fore the Governor was informed thai
il was ready for business and respond
ed by sending in his messages. Wher
they came, shortly after o'clock in the
afternoon, there was a full attendance
and every seat in the visitors section
was filled. Secretary Hawes presented
the communications, which were reat
in order. the two first produced being
translated. and the others being sim
rlv read in English, as Senator ka
lauokalani said that there was no ust
in translating them, as it simply wen
in at one ear and out at the other
The messages were as follows:

his heart he was filed with sincere

NLW w..rrO MoTE cARS.

A French inventor thinks he has
perfected a plan which will make
great Improvement in railroad travel
ling. If it succeeds it will certainly
make a great change. A train consist
ing of three automobile" carriages is
to leave Paris for Dion, on January
IS. The carriages will take forty pas
sengers each, as well as Luggage, and
a lavatory and bar will be provided.
Under the system employed a small
quantity of petroleum converts small
amount of water into the greatest pos
sible propelling power, the steam act
ing directly on the wheels. Thus the
locomotives are superseded and each
carriage is independent. The initial
cost of the carriage complete is equal
to that of one of the present corridor
cars, which, however, are not convert
ible to the new system. 1t is asserted
that a speed of sixty-two miles an
hour can be maintained for the whole
distance from Paris to Nice.
1t will be rather humiliating if the
French get ahead Of this country in
railroading. Perhaps they wont. 1t is
one thing to have a promising inven-
ton and quite another thing to see it
keep it's promise.

POPULAR DANCING IN PARIS.

A Grand Waltz Tournament--Whe
the Masses" Find Amusement.
All the dancing societies of Paris
have just held a grand waltz tourna-
ment. The idea was originated by
society with the deliciously naive name
of La Franche Amitie." Challenges
were sent out to all the similar instf-
tutions in the town. The support Of
the local authorities was sought and
obtained. The scene chosen for the
contest was the ballroom of the Frank
Friendship society, in the Montmartre
reimbursement. This, by the way, is
the very district where the Scarlet
Windmill f1aunts it's flaring arms. The
mayor of the reimbursement consented
to preside at the tournament. Several
officials sat on the jury, by the side of
the presidents Of the various dancing
societies, all gentlemen of local weight
and influence, the most prosperous gro
GERS, iron mOngers, pork butchers, cafe
keepers of their respective neighbour
hoods. Severe tests We're arranged for
the competitors. The tournament was
to last forty minutes. The only step to
be employed was that of the classic
waltz Reversing was allowed, but
dancing in one place without advan-
cling or receding was forbidden. The
sliding waltz known in France as the
boston was also prohibited. Finally,
elegance of department was to be taken
into account, and, of course, the strict
est decorum Of manneh was required.
Competitors were to be at least eigh-
teen years of age. Each male dancer
had to pay an entrance fee of two
francs The Frank Friends CALAMITY
refused to charge the ladies anything.

Amendment to the Constitution. The
allegation that the exclusion of Chinese
from the public schools is arbitrary
and the result of hatred for the Chi
nese race the opinion says, is not L
matter for the Court to inquire into.
The relief sought is refused because
there was not even an allegation that
the school for Chinese did not give
just as good an education as those to
which Chinese were not admitted.

TROUBLE AND HELP IN LONDON

TROUBLE AND HELP IN LONDON.
There is great distress among the
poor of London. 1t is said that there
are 100000 out of work there. A census
that has been made of actual paupers
shows that the number receiving relief
from the County of London at the close
of November was 108,157, or more than
ever before in that month and not ex-
eeeded relatively to the population since
1857. Most of the work houses are full,
and some Of them are greatly over
crowded, their total population being
s. ,703, while 39,S46 persons are receiving
outdoor relief. The restitution is scat
tered throughout the entire metropolis,
even the district which includes the
ultra fashionable st. Georges, Hano-
yer Square, having 3,705 paupers to
support. The fear is that the situa-
ton will become much worse before it
becomes better, and that the actual
hardships Of winter will be more bitter
than at any time within recent recol-
lection.
While it is saddening to read about
the distress in London it is cheering
to read about the help that is being
given there, Funds are being collected

DIFFERENT IN CHINA.

They don't do some things in China as
they do them in this country. Last year,
according to the China Times, Mr.. Jen
was betrothed to Miss Han and paid
his money to the lady's parents. A
month ago he called on the parents to
have the contract fulfilled, and was told
that the promised one was the bride of
another. Having paid his money he
considered he was entitled to the girl,
and went to her husbands house to
carry her off, but she was not at home.
He then laid his case before the magis-
trate. The girl was arrested, and SEN
fenced to be ''kua-ed." The process of
kuaing is very similar to the ling chin,
or slicing to death punishment In pass
ing sentence the magistrate said to the
girl: eff You are so wicked at twenty
years of age, at the age of eighty you
will be a menace to the Celestial en-
pire"
Marriage, OR, at least, a marriage
trade, seems to be regarded seriously in
China. 1t is lucky for the girls of this
country that they are in no danger Of
being ''kua-ed' If they go back on the
arrangements made for them in a mar
riage dicker. or on the arrangements
they make for themselves.

4 HTGH SCHOOLHOUsE.

The New York board Of education is
considering an interesting plan for
high school. That is, the school at the
top of the proposed building will be
high. A new schoolhouse Is needed in
one OF the congested districts of the
city; in fact, more than one schoolhouse
Of ordinary size. The committee on
sites proposed the purchase of a plot
comprising about seven and a half
house lots, the estimated cost of which
is over 100000. A five story school,
house on this plot would accommodate
from $500 to 5000 pupils But the
board of education already owns the
old Essex market site, in the same vi
cinity, which abuts on three streets. 1t
is proposed to erect on this site an
eight-story schoolhouse with accommo-
cations for 5000 pupils. with ample
stairways, retiring rooms, etc. Access
to the upper stories would be had by
elevators Of size sufficient to carry an
entire class at one trip. The assembly
room would be on the first floor. The
cost of such a structure would be, it is
said, only about 100000 more than the
other proposed site.
1t will not be, surprising to see an
eight-story school building in New York.
Perhaps the building proposed wouldn't
be as dangerous in case Of fire or panic
as some Of The existing buildings are,
It could be built so as to be safe.
