Editor Advertiser: In order to cor
rect any misapprehension that might
possibly arise from the statements of
Ramon Hernandez, a Porto Rican, and
which appeared in the issue of this
date, L desire to state the facts of the
case.
He was not turned out of the Home
for Incurables, to ole in the street; he
was not treated in such a heartless
manner.
1t is true that he caused a. great deal
of unnecessary trouble by his lack of
compliance with the rules of the Hos
pital, and by his failure to obey Ger
tain orders in regard to a restricted
diet, necessary in the treatment of his
case. He became greatly dissatisfied
with the efforts made on his behalf
by the attendants of the Home and
threatened to leave on account of the
treatment he was receiving. He was
shown that it was not from a desire
to arbitrarily punish him, but from a
desire to prolong his life. that he vas
deprived of certain articles of diet. and
must obey certain other regulations
laid down for him. In spite of this he
still persisted in his desire to leave
the Home, and refused to receive the
treatment for his disease, and again
stated it as his desire to leave. He
was then told that if he left without
the sanction of the attending physician
he would not be allowed readmission
and he then left the Hospital
There are thus more reasons for his
not being granted readmission than the
Home being full, which was also the
case, as we have always two or three
applicants awaiting a vacancy. and
these viii comply with the rules and
are more entitled to sympathy than the
one under consideration.
However, a vacancy has occurred in
the meanwhile and the man has been
readmitted, but or the distinct under
standing that he obeys orders.
It is one of the most difficult tasks
to maintain discipline in an institution
whose inmates are SO cosmopolitan and
varied in social status Gas is the case
with the Home); one breaking through
the rules will cause a number of others
to do the same. This cannot be toll
Grated for a moment, and a failure of
Ramon Hernandez hereafter. or any
other inmate of the Home. to comply
with the rules and regulations viii
make it necessary, however heartless it
may appear, to discharge him. We
could not run the hospital a month I'M
der any other understanding
Furthermore, the personal desire of
Hernandez to return to the Home, and
his assertion that if permitted to do so
he will comply with all our regulations.
is sufficient proof, even to his limited
understanding. that the rigorous treat
ment adopted in his case, was for his
best interests.
Respectfully yours.

HEARKEN YE!
To the Voice of Honolulu People

If you will but listen to your friends
and neighbors they VIII tell you how
the pains and aches of a bad back, the
annoyances of urinary troubles, the
nervousness, the restIessness which
come from kidney ills can be relieved
and cured. Read what one Honolulu
citizen says:
Writing under date of January 10th,
1899 Jurgen Walter of this city tells
US as follows: MY age is 79-wen
past the ordinary span Of life-and /
am the parent of eight children. Be-
ing so far advanced III years, 1 regard
the relief obtained from Doans Back
ache Kidney Pills.
1 suffered from lame back for years,
but after taking some of the pills (pro-
cured at HOLSTERS drug store) was
greatly benefited, and I am satisfied the
pills did me much good"
Our kidneys filter our blood. They
work night and Gay. When healthy
they remove about 500 grains of i'm
pure matter daily, when unhealthy
some part Of this impure matter is left
in the blood. This brings on many
diseases and symptoms-pain in the
back, headache, nervousness, hot, dry
skin, rheumatism, govt, gravel. dis
order, eyesight and hearing, dizzf-
ness, irregular heart, debility drowsi-
ness, dropsy, deposits in the urine, etc
But if you keep the filters right you
will have no trouble with your kid
neys.
Doan's Backache Kidney Pills are
sold by all chemists and storekeepers
at so cents per box, or will be mailed
on receipt of price by the HOLSTER
Drug Co. wholesale agents for the Ha-
Waiian Islands.

Honorable D. P. r. Isenberg, President
of the Senate
Sir: Your Judiciary Committee, to
whom was referred the Senate bill No.
Is, respectfully report as follows:
Your committee are of the opinion
that the Revised Laws should be legal
lied as soon as possible in order that
oil int Of &c
be referred to it and in order that
members may have the whole law be-
fore them in a compact form for pur-
poses of reference.
AS it is now, dozen books or more
have to be examined in order to as
certain the law. By passing the act
we will have it all in a single volume.
The passage of this act will give us
all the laws in a convenient form
In the experience of the past it is
known that numbers of district mag
istrates have tried cases under laws al
ready repealed, because they were in
ignorance of the fact. as they had so
many books to examine. BY pas sing
this law all such mistakes viii be large
ly avoided
The Revised Laws viii be a great
convenience to the public, and especial
~ to the officers of the Government.
1t is the first authorized revision of
our statutes made during the past for
ty years and fills a long-felt want.
The Commission is entitled to great
praise for the manner in which the
work has been accomplished.
The cost of the books and the ex-
penses of the Commission, including
their salaries, we believe will be fully
covered and more by the sale of the
books.
We recommend the passage of the
bill with the following amendment:
Add a new section to be called Sec
ton s, as follows:
Section 8. This Act shall become law
from and after its passage.
Respectfully submitted,

Fort Monroe June 17-Rear
Admiral Dickens, commanding
the hostile fleet operating in these
waters, seems determined to blow
Fort Monroe off the face of the
map before noon to-day when the
joint maneuvers terminate. Since
ten o'clock last night two fierce at
tacks have been made by his YES
sells upon the Notifications, and
while neither of them were sue
cessful, Dickens conclusively dem
onstrated the fact that it would
be possible for an attacking feet
to land marines and make a flank
movement against Fort Monroe
which is wholly unprotected from
the land side. At ten o'clock
last night, almost Immediately af-
ter the alarm sounded of ap-
proach of the enemy's feet, tor
pedo doat destroyers shot out
from the darkness and passed in
front of the Notifications, and re-
peated the tactics of the night
previous, causing an artificial wall
of gun fire from smoke from their
guns and tunnels. A strenuous

The difficulty which led to the

who is a very peaceable and law
abiding citizen.
