A locking of horns is taking place
between the Board of Health and the
Queens Hospital. Some warm feeling
was developed at the meeting of the
Board yesterday afternoon by the read
ing of a letter from the secretary of
the Hospital trustees, which in polite
but unambiguous terms rejected the
Board s proposal that they should open
sort of receiving ward for sick per-
sons, having tuberculosis or other dis
ease supposed to be contagious, who
might suddenly come upon the hands of
the Board.
At the last previous meeting Pres
ident Pinkham spoke about the diff
ficulty of hospital accommodation, say
ing how undesirable 1t was to have
to hold very sick persons in the Health
Office hallway, sometimes for hours,
until places could be found for them.
And then he suggested "that the
Queen s Hospital would do well to
provide small, detached, isolated
ward on their own or adjacent grounds
TO which such patients could be i'm
mediatcly removed until they are per-
manently provided for, or the diagnosis
permits of their return to the hospital
proper. In such a ward the president
of the Board should be allowed to
place very i'll persons for not over
twenty-four to forty-eight hours until
he can provide for Them
This suggestion having been approx
ed by the Board, the president en-
bodied it in letter to the trustees of
the Queen Hospital. And this is the
answer he received:
LETTER OF TRUSTEES.
Honolulu, Nov. II, 1905.
Mr.. L. Z. Pinkham, President Board
of Health, Honolulu.
Dear Sir: l am directed to acknowl-
edge receipt of your letter of the 31st
ult., addressed to the Trustees of the
Queens Hospital, and to state, in reply,
that the subject matter thereof has
| had the careful consideration both of
the Executive COMMITTEES and of the
| Trustees as whole.
Inc trustees appreciate Iully your
position in this matter and readily see
the necessity for an institution such as
you suggest and find nothing discour-
teous in your proposition, but, very
naturally, consider everything from
their standpoint as guardians of tn,
Hospital and of the patients and in.
mates thereof.
In their opinion the locating on the
grounds of the Queens Hospital OF
such an institution would be a menace
to the Hospital and would have an in
furious effect upon its special sphere OF
work in this community.
A possible infection of the wards and
patients in the main building must
necessarily be taken into consideration
and, also, the fact that the attendance
of the superintendent, nurses and the
Hospital staff would be necessitated.
In their judgment, therefore, the
Trustees do not feel that they car
assume the risk proposed.
l am further directed, by the Trus-
tees. to convey to you their assurance
of hearty goodwill and regret that they
can not see their way to carrying out
your suggestion.
Yours very truly,
GEO. w. SMITH,

Totals.

A decrease of over thirteen hundred
voters in seventeen years has a curious
look about it. Yet is is very largely
explained by the other fact that the
total decrease is almost exactly two
thirds of the decrease in Portuguese
voters alone. The increase in Ameri-
can voters, including no doubt all who
brought American citizenship from the
mainland and those born in the islands
of American parentage. is over the
thousand mark

to send in his resignation as a member

CuI-TlVAT|NG THE MEMORY

call to mind whatever they wish to re-
member.
Again. there are persons who have a
keen eye for color. They will make
their memoranda on slips of paper Of
different colors. Then simply calling
to mind particular color will enable
them to remember the memorandum as
sociated with that color. OF course, all
this is based on what is known as the
faculty of association of ideas.
But perhaps the most wholesome way
In the long run is simply by repetition
and effort to fix the thing in the mem
ory directly without tricks Of memory
or artificial methods. BY memorizing
each day one sentence or verse from
the best literature the mind will soon
have fine treasury of beautiful
thoughts and an enriched vocabulary
For quotation purposes 1t Is neces-
sary to remember verbatim. and, though
this Is the hardest task of memory, 1t
well repays the effort. Once trained
the memory will be able to recall the
exact words of conversations, sermons
and passages in books without having
made any conscious effort to commit
them.-Philadelphia Inquirer.

FATHER UPHAM'S ADVICE.

When the late DR.. Fredric Upham. IA
miliarly known throughout Southern New
England as Father" Upham, was pastor
Of the Matthewson Street Episcopal
Church in Providence, R. l., he preached
one Sunday morning on the eternal pun
ishment of the wicked, and as he was
known for rigid orthodox 1t Is safe to
say that the sermon was somewhat
strong.
AS he was about to take a train for
Boston the next morning young man
approached him In the station, saying: Il
was in your church yesterday morning,
Mr.. Upham. and heard that hell fire SER
mon Of yours. I want to tell you I don't
believe word of 1t. I don't take any
stock in the idea that man will go to
hell forever for his sins in a short life
here"
so you don't believe in future punish
ment for sin?' asked Father" Upham.
"Oh, well,' replied the critic, Il
wouldn't say just that. There may be
punishment for some for time, but the
Great Father will bring all in at last
young man." said Father" Upham,
''I haven't time to argue with you, as
my train Is about to start. but let me
give you just bit of advice If you
don't expect to stay In hell more than a
fortnight, just keep out."-Boston Her

NAANY persons complain of having
M a poor memory and yet that fac
ulty can be developed as easily
as can the biceps muscle. Nor is II
necessary to go to any professor Of
memory or to master any elaborate
system in order to accomplish this re-
suit. One does not have to go to a
gymnasium to strengthen the arm or
back Chopping wood or rowing
boat will do it. Similarly, memory may
be cultivated by an effort and amid
ordinary pursuits.
One man made the Sunday service of
his church serve as a memory exer-
else. After the service he would en-
deavor to call the numbers of all the
hymns sung, the chapters and verses
of the lessons, words of the anthem,
the text and points of the sermon. This
required paying close attention and a
conscious effort to impress these things
upon his mind. BY this and other
equally simple means he developed a
memory that was absolutely at his
command.
Famous speakers who have memoir
lied their speeches have adopted simple
devices to aid them. One noted orator
fixed in mind the different points In his
speech by first drawing little figures or
pictorial representations. If part of his
speech had to do with a bridge he
would make little sketch Of such a
structure, or, If with Cuba or the Phil
ippines, he would sketch a small map
of these islands. He could remember
these little figures or pictures. When
he rose to his feet he could see them
in imagination and select them one by
one as he proceeded from point to point
in the address, not having any note or
manuscript by him at ALL That was
the method best suited to him.
Certain persons possess what may be
called the bump of location. If they
remember a passage In book they
can tell you which side Of the page 1t
is on and on what part of the page.
There are students with that kind of
a memory who prepare their recitations
by taking a large sheet of paper and
writing different parts of the lesson in
different places on the paper They
then rely on their sense OF location to
