Or. W. J. Emmer is now the
President of the Parish Board of
Health. He was appointed to
this position by the Police Jury
some months ago. When he saw
the shape things we're taking in
the fight over this city's Health
Officers portfolio he retired
from the contest This, however,
in no manner effects the position
which he holds by virtue Of the
Police Jury appointment.

shocked had he been in the Police Court

ton is a Porto Rican negress charged
with stabbing p. North, sailor of the
U. S. S. Wheeling, on July list. North

Hospital. Mrs. Bennett was committed
to the Circuit Court.
Gus Brettcher was up on a third
charge of larceny in the second degree,
but sentence was suspended for thir-
teen months in order to give him a
chance to get out of town after serving
his other sentences. e. Gemean, who is
alleged to have shot the negro Ulysses
G. Harris, had his case continued until
today. w. Bum, charged with assault
and battery on Victor A. Henry, cabin
boy, was reprimanded and discharged.
S. O'Donnell paid SO and costs for being
drunk. All the other cases We're con-
tinued until this morning except the

RAILROADS To THE
new MILITARY POST

The Oahu Railway and Land Com
pany is reaching out for new business
and contemplates running spur to the
new military reservation at kahauiki. A
plan for such spur has been filed with
the War Department, which involves a
branch of about half a mile from the
main line to the edge of the reserva-
ton.
The Rapid Transit & Land Company
has also requested permission to run
their tracks to the reservation from the
present King street line. If the de-
partment is agreeable, the Rapid Transit
company will make extensions which
will involve about two miles of track
from the Kalihi terminus.
The Rapid Transit contemplates car
rying not only passengers to and from
the military reservation but building
supplies and materials of all kinds.
The surveys for the location OF the
various buildings on the reservation
will be completed in about six weeks
and will then be forwarded to Wash
ington for approval.

Night.

Strauch's Cooperative Home Pur.
chasing Society held reorganization
meeting last night in Waverley hall and
debated until late hour over the pro.
posed new bylaws. The meeting was
attended by women as well as men, al
participating in lively talk
One of the principal items discussed
was that providing for the bonding OF
the treasurer and manager The new
bylaws stated that the bonds would be
approved by the Board of Directors
Several members of the society took
the floor to demand that the share
holders be the ones to approve the
bonds. The matter, however, was per-
mitted to stand as presented.
The reorganization provides for a
number of officers, including president,
vice-president, treasurer, secretary, man
ager, board of directors and trustees.

couragement and discoura cement. They
report the climate less trying than they
had been led to believe, and are con-
fident that good sanitary conditions are
all that are needed to make the place
fairly healthful. Commissioner Grups-
ky, In an Interview. said that lie and
his associates found evidence all along
the route of n great waste of energy
on account of lack of system and the
use of obsolete tools. He Is IN favor
of paying enough for having the work
done So that the contractors will be
able properly to equip themselves at
the start. The contracts win be let in
about year.
AS to how long before the canal will
be completed, ten years at the least is
the estimate made. a canal with locks
seems the only practicable one. To cut
the isthmus through to the sea level
would be prodigious undertaking. DIR.
ID. c. Stephens has just returned from
Panama, and says that the project OF
putting through tidal canal would be
out of the question. He estimates that
II would take thirty thousand laborers
thirty-one years to do the work. and
that the cost would be $4,000, 900. He
does not make quite so favorable n re-
port as the commissioners do regarding
the climate, but says that the fatalities
attending the French company's work
were largely due to the total neglect of
the most ordinary sanitary precautions.
DR.. Stephens describes the Culebra
cut Uhe deepest excavation that Is to

TRADE SCHOOL

Trade school development instead of

mehameha Schools so as to give the
Hawaiian graduate a trade whereby he
can at once begin to earn his living.
An example of what has already been
done in this line is to be seen now at
the residence of Theodore Richards
where Prof Eskew, superintendent of
the trade school department of the Ka-
mehameha Schools, is making extensive
alterations assisted by corps of Ka-
mehameha students.
The plans for the alterations to the
Richards home We're drawn by Mr..
Traphagen and to Mr.. Esl<ew was Of
fered the opportunity of giving his pu-
pills practical demonstration in carpen-
tering. The alteration consists of rails
ing the roof and building a second story
over the original house which was of
one story. The work Is nearing com
pletion and is said to have been ex-
ceptionally well done.
The manual training idea has done
much for the students of Kamehameha.
but as given to young boys, 1t is
theoretical to a large extent and the
instruction Is not altogether associated
with practical examples The trade
school idea on the other hand Is in
tended TO give practical instruction in
carpenterlng, blacksmithing, painting,
gardening and farming. In this the
pupils are put on actual work which
must of necessity be done right and
thoroughly.

nrnte contracts.


Mr.. Sharp supported the views of Mr..
Bowler. He told of the practice in
England, where he served as an APP
prentice. There municipal work must
be done by workmen residing in the
particular municipality and nobody
could be given a contract unless he was
able to prove that he was master
mechanic in the line of work required.
Mr.. Mott argued that the division of
contracts would not involve more work
or trouble of supervision than the pres
ent system.
The motion being carried. the chair
appointed Messrs. England. Bowler and
President Craig as the committee.
MATTER DEFERRED.
The proposed amendment to the by
laws, broadening the range of eligi-
bility to membership, was deferred to
a larger meeting when the president,
who originated 1t, would be present.
Secretary Avery stated that there
was a matter of Importance, which had
arisen within the past few days, but
which was not quite in readiness to be
submitted to the Exchange. He sug-
gested that another meeting be held
next week.
Accordingly the Exchange adjourned
until Thursday evening next.

Judge De Bolt granted the motion of
libellee in the divorce case of Lono
Keanini VS.. John Keanini to vacate
the order of July 16 requiring the libel
lee to deposit in court $50 for costs
and $50 as attorneys fee for j. Alfred
Magoon. The ground of motion pre-
sented by II. McCants Stewart was
that the appearance of the libellee
on the hearing, when the order was
made, was caused by failure of his
attorney to see the order of the court
fixing time for the hearing, also that
the libellee had q substantial defense
against the order. Judge De Bolt.

different ground that the court Is in
