Candless moved that the salary Of
the Sheriff of oahu be cut to $500
from $1,000 Dickey moved that the
office of Sheriff of Oahu be stricken out

THE TWICE FIVE
Interesting Meeting at Mr.. Petti,'s.
A Pertinent Subject Discussed.


The "open meeting" Of the Club
at Mr.. PettIts on last Monday eve-
ming was one of the most interest
ing held for long time. None
OF the members knew the subject to
he discussed except the two on duty
Dr.. Aplin aud Rev. Wilson. DR.;
Arlin presented the subject,
(which contributed the more for
the preparation of the world for the
coming cf Christ, the Greek or the
Romans. DR.. Aplin argued tor the
Greek, the language was the tongue
of the learned, the oolonizing Of
the Greek diffused his language
carrying with IT the highest develo.
pement Of the human intellect and
the near approach IN philosophy
to an acceptance OF a Messiah.
Rev. Wilson held that the Rom
ans prepared the way for the traus-
mission of the gospel by its con-
quests, breaking down all the bar
riers, Of hostile nations. bv good
roads making transmission Of intel
ligence practical to the outer limits
of the empire, by restoring peace
to the nations, and in combining in
its religious scheme all the religions
of mankind, made pasanlsm, poly
theisn distas,efn!, disappointing.
The point conceded was that the
Greek was the passive intellectual
preparation. while the Roman was
the material active practical agency
in preparing for dissemination of
Christianity.
The subject was generally dis.
cussed by the members. The next
meeting will be at Mr.. McKay's.

HOTEL wAyrrs.

We met an old man recently on the
streets Of q town hauling small cart
Of refuse from the kitchen Of a large
hotel. He said to us, 'Just see here
what an awful waste Of good food goes
on In connection with these hotels"
and called our attention to the cliarac-
ter of the refuse which he was paid for
taking away and feeding to his hogs.
Looking ut 1t, we discovered that there
Were porterhouse steaks. which cost
not less than 20 cents per pound. from
which only u mouthful or two had been
taken; large chunks and slices of roRst
beef and other meats; slices Of cake
biscult--in fact, all Of the large amount
Of uneaten food ordered by guests
whose mental greed to get even with
she landlord far exceeded their diges-
tive capacity II Is not much out Of
the way to say that not to exceed 80
per cent Of the food served at u hotel
is eaten by the guests. The other so
per rent we found In this old mans
garbage box. There Is sense Of re.
lief. In one way. In knowing that these
scraps went to the pigs, as there Is
quite general belief among many
that In the Interests OF economy these
discarded remnants later appear on
the bill Of fare In the shape OF meat
pies, hash, cake puddlngs and various
other sundries, which are made attrac.
tive with little spice and French

THE POOR STAND or oonx.

A friend asks us whether the poor
stand OF corn to be found In so many
fields Is attributable wholly to poor
seed. 1t is not. There are many agen.
cies which tend to impair the vitality
of seed and preysnt its healthy and
vigorous development. Among these
may be mentioned too early planting
when the weather Is so cold as to be
entirely unfavorable to the termination
Of the seed. Then there Is deep plant
Ing. With our modern planters suffi-
Client care Is not used to prevent the
corn being planted at too great depth.
1t Is common thing to 20 out into q
cornfield and find corn struggling to
reach the surface where 1t has been
buried at a depth Of from four to five
Inches. When the ground becomes
slightly crusted corn under these con.
dltions hardly ever reaches the surface.
Then there are the ravages OF the mice,
gOphers and crows, which cut no small
figure In preventing a good stand Of
corn. Primarily, however, the main
cause OF poor stand Of corn IL poor
seed, and this, too. IL one which Il
wholly within the power Of the grower
to prevent. Here is a short recipe for
Avoiding this difficulty: Pick the seed
corn not later than the 10Th of October,
hang 1t up where 1t will get thorough
ly dried out and then keep 1t where it
will be free from frost until needed for
planting. If this should be followed
out the complaint Of poor seed corn
would almost wholly disappear from
the corn growing regions.
