ium for interchange of thought. AL
though our antipodes in many respects
we find that they are exceedingly rec
iprocative of politeness extended to
them. Their merchants here have
maintained the high standard for hon
est dealing which is attributed to those
of Hong Kong, Shanghai and the trad
ing ports of China. They have proven
to be very law abiding and are rarely
before the courts on charges other than
misdemeanors. They have never sought
to intermeddle in the politics of the
country. short residence in this
country imbues them with desire that
as good a government as is found here
may maintain in their own country.
Their young men, while joining reform
clubs, are thoroughly loyal to the En-
peror and are very solicitous that their
people at home should acquire the wis
dom of the western nations and that
the resources of China should be devel-
oped. Their merchants are the purvey
ors of all kinds of goods to every val
ley in the islands and their little stores,
where it would not be profitable for
white men to do business, are great
conveniences to their respective neigh
borhoods. Their laborers have been of
incalculable assistance IN building up
every plantation on the islands and
have aided much in the development of
the prosperity of the country. They
have reclaimed large areas of land,
which We're of old mercy swamp and
marsh land, and made of them product
i've properties, which now bring large
rents to their owners. In many in
stances they have leased disused taro
lands, too remote to be utilized for
cane, and have thereon established rice
plantations which yield large revenues
to the owners and taxes to the govern

Cbrum'S Hnnual,

With each New Year the demand for
this condensed encyclopedia of Hawaii
az information becomes more marked
and each issue shows an improvement
over the preceding one. The Annual
fer 1902 is, we feel justified in saying,
the best number ever issued and shows
a great amount of painstaking research
and careful compilation. For 2S years
Thrum's Annual has been the ready
reference book for the Islands and in
all that time little or no complaint has
been made against the correctness Of
the information set forth, its absolute
reliability being generally recognized.
The present number contains in adj
dition to the Hawaiian Almanac and
the usual statistics of distances, height
Of elevations, population, etc, the Gus
tom House tables of imports and eX-
ports arranged in handy shape for ref
erence; license rates; census tables up
to and including the census of 1900; sta
tiGtics on education, rainfall, tempera-
ture, shipping, labor, sugar and tables
showing the returns of the general
election of 1900. A number of the spec
ial articles are of unusual value, the
most prominent one being that on Ha-
waiian Birds by H. w. Henshaw, fol-
lowed by Miss j. L. Tilden's first paper
on Hawaiian Algae. The history of the
great house of Hackfeld e. Co., since it's
inception in 1S49 is written up interest
irgly. Club Life in Honolulu is set
forth by the Hon. A. S. Cleghorn. Or

editor; the Laws of the First Legisla-
ture of the Territory of Hawaii are
given and information regarding the
Hilo Railroad system. The retrospect
and information for tourists is com
plete and up to date.
In no other condensed shape is there
so much valuable Information to be
found and especially for so little cost,
10 cents per copy, postage 10 cents eN-
ira, being the price. Mr.. I. q. Thruul,
the compiler and publisher, is entitled
rot only to a liberal patronage, but to
the thanks of the public as well. Par

~ EARLY as 1902 some Chinese
~ came to the Islands in vessels
owned by Kamehameha, the Great, one
bringing stone sugar mill with the
intention of establishing a sugar plant
alton. Finding that the locality in
which he had located. the Island of
Lanai. was unsuitable he returned the
following year to China. In the year
1910 the King was trading with China
and his annual ventures at that time
amounted to 100000. Finding that the
tonnage tax at Canton was very oner-
Gus and was productive of great rev.
enue to China he conceived the idea of
establishing a similar tax on foreign
vessels in the ports of Hawaii-nei,
which was the origin of the Hawaiian
customs service.
From 1902 the number of Chinese re-
siding on the Islands slowly increased
EARLY in the last century, owing to the
ABUSE or native women, a law was
passed that no foreigner could marry
a native without first taking the oath
of allegiance, thereby declaring his in
tention of making the Islands his
home. AS some Chinese had taken
wives, and others We're DESTROYS of do
ing 50, we Ilnu as early as 1872 certain
of them We're admitted TO citizenship
1t might be mentioned here that they
made exemplary husbands and reared
fine families, many of whom are inter-
married with natives and whites, and
all degrees of blood are to be found
amongst their descendants
Bringing with them their sterling in
dustrious and economical habits, they
gradually acquired much real and per-
sonal property. Their great love of ed
uCatlon lead them to send their chill
dren to China to acquire the Chinese
classics and of late years we find many
OF them pursuing a higher English ed
ucation, all of which involves great
outlay. 1t has been remarked by tour
lists that the Chinese of Hawaii were a
superior class to those who go to Cali
fornia, but such is not the case, as they
are in both instances largely from the
district of Quang Tung, the capital of
which is Canton.
The intelligent and prepossessing ap-
pearance of the Chinese of Hawaii as
compared with those met with in the
western States, is accounted for first
ly, by the manner in which they have
been treated by the residents of the
islands, and secondly, through their
acquiring so quickly the Hawaiian Ian
guage, which has been and is a med

BROOKLYN BRIEFS

Patrick Gaughan of the Watertown road has accepted a position with Val entine Bohl of the Watertown road.
 w. H. Borchardt and Joseph Bor- chardt returned last night from fish, ing trip to Bantam lake. They had fairly good luck.
 An anniversary mass of requiem will be celebrated at St Patricks church on Friday morning at o'clock for the late Mrs Patrick McGrath of Poplar avenue.
 Constable Lannon served an at tachment upon the owner of the fruit and confectionery store at S60 Bank street this morning for small bill. The attachment was immediately re- leased by the payment of the bill.
 Alfred Eyerard of Avon avenue, carpenter, met with a serious accident yesterday afternoon. He was work ing at a house on Hill street and was using his chisel when it slipped and the edge of it entered the palm of his left hand, making a deep gash about one and three-fourths inches long. Dr David rendered surgical assistance.
 At meeting of the St Thomas Ca dets' A. A. last night, two propositions were received. The board of direc- tors was directed to select manager for the baseball team for the coming season. The board of directors will make known their choice at the next meeting of the Cadets, which will be held the first Friday in February.
 There was an exciting fistic en- counter between two parties of fish ermen from this section at Bantam lake on Saturday afternoon. The scrimmage lasted for quite a time and when it was finished the coun- tenance of more than one of the par ticipants was slightly discolored. The trouble arose over some type. Sat urday morning two fishermen went to the lake. They had fine luck during the day Late in the afternoon a party of four fishermen from this sec tion went over to Bantam. They knew the other parties who were fish ing there. While one of the party was putting up the horse and team in barn, the other three went down to the lake were they met their two friends fishing. They at once made an agreement whereby the party that had just arrived should use the type and holes of the others who had been there all day, in return for some re- treatments The agreement had been ratified and everything was all right when the fourth member of the second party arrived. It appears that he and one of the first party were bitter enemies and at once trouble en- sued. The first party demanded their type, but as some of the refreshments had disappeared the second party re- fused to surrender the type. Then the fight began and q hot one it was. so hot that the participants will avoid such encounters for some time in the future.

 Last Night.

Reelected the Old Board of Officers
 Last Night.
 The Union club held it's annual meeting at its headquarters on North Main street last night and reelected the old officers as follows: President. Frederick ". Chesson; first vice pres. ldent John T. Boylan; second vice president. James H. Filling; treasurer. Edward l.. Futile; secretary Martin I. McEvoy.
 The full board of directors were re- tafned for another term.
 The club has practically concluded to seek new quarters and make other Important changes and it was deemed advisable to intrust this work to a special committee. The following were appointed for this purpose. Fred erick W. Chesson. Isadore Chase. John T. Boylan, Jacob Kaiser and Francis F. Guilfoile.
 The Union club was organized June l, 1S9o, with aighty-six members. At one time it promised to become one of the largest organizations of it's kind Tn the state, but for some time past 1t has not been going forward and this lack of interest on the part of some of It's members led many to believe that the society was about to go out of ex- istence. This is not so. It will seek other quarters, but this must not be taken as any indication that it is thinking of disbanding.
 The local members, printed in al phabetical order, are as follows:

Frank D. Pagan Received Nine Votes
 for ,Sealer of Weights.
 The board of aldermen met last night, Chairman Goss presiding and all the members being present.
 The Walker case came before the board again in the form of a lengthy resolution, reviewing the whole case, including the veto of same by the mayor, and recommending that a vote be now passed that the bill of $S96 be paid to Alice Walker, and that the city attorney be instructed to take such proceedings as are necessary to collect that amount from the Hell mann Brewing Co. MT Chesson moved that the communication be re ceived and the recommendations con tained therein be adopted. When the chair stated the motion, MT Filling said:
 I'm not familiar enough with that matter to vote on it tonight. This is a new board and some of us know nothing about the case before us ex cept what we read in the papers near ly year ago. should like to see action deferred on the communication for the present. 1 move that 1t lie on the table"
 By unanimous consent, the two mo tions offered were withdrawn and the communication was referred to the law committee.

For Governors Inaugural.
 TRENTON, N. J., Jan. 21.-The two houses of the legislature met last night, but practically no business was transacted outside of the introduction of about forty bills.
 In the house Afr. Leavitt of the joint committed on inauguration made re- port of the programme that will be fol lowed today in the inauguration Of Governor Elect Murphy.
 The two houses met in their respec- tive chambers in the statehouse this morning and shortly before noon ad- journed to reconvene on the stage of the Taylor Opera House, where the in- auguration ceremonies will take place.
 The house Republicans held con- ference last evening at which the steer ing committee reported that Thursday at 2 o'clock had been fixed as the time for the joint caucus to select a Repub- lican candidate for United States sena- tor. The committee reported that un- less the joint caucus decided otherwise the caucus will be secret one, but that there would be open balloting.
 Some of the members are opposed to a secret caucus and will make an ef- fort to have it thrown open to the newspaper men in order that the re- suit of the balloting may be correctly reported

 For a fortnight 2,500 men as or in the vicinity of Barcelona and Clmana have been awaiting arms and ammunition in order to take the field against Presi- dent Castro's forces.
 The financial situation in Venezuela is pronounced to be hopeless.
 Later in the day it became known that the insurgents who attempted to capture Maracaibo Saturday were ad- herents of General Hernandez ('El Mocho'D who is still kept in prison by President Castro. The revQlutionists attacked the police post situated In the main street, where fight which ended in the defeat of the revolutionists took place.
