the House at noon he said, a person
had said that he (Coelho) had been
induced by the plumbers to introduce
the bill, that it was simply a scheme to
help that trade. He denied this most
strenuously and insisted that the bill
requiring concrete floors for buildings
floors that were imperyious to water
and filth, were an absolute necessity in
a place such as Honolulu with its mix
ed population and its constant success
sion of arriving strangers.
POOR PEOPLE GAMERS.
It had been said that the poor PEG

II was the poor people who suffered
from the present conditions, not the
rich. The Hawaiians were used to hav-

and air but the Chinese crowd into
narrow ill-smelling quarters and dis
ease breeds rapidly amongst them
These diseases spread among the Ha-
waiians and the Hawaiians are the suf-
ferers though not the sinners.
Aylett opposed the bill and a con-
troversy, which was not translated,
arose between Coelho and himself. Ka-
leiopu moved the previous question
which carried.
The motion to indefinitely postpone
the bill was carried by u to IL.

Washinoton's Outlook

Governor Mead of Washington says,
in the Sunset Magazine for July, that
Washington has nearly doubled in
population in five years; that the peo-
pie Of his state have an abiding faith
in it's resources and believe when
they are exploited and the charms of
climate and location become known,
that the Pacific northwest will assume
a commanding and perhaps a fore
most position among the favored re-
gions Of the world. The most advan-
tageous shipping point from the north
west shore of the Pacific is Puget
sound. Add to this the fact that with
in the borders of the state of Wash
ington are the timber fishing, mineral.
coal, pastoral, agricultural and horti-
cultural resources of an empire and
population drawn from the sturdi.
est and most progressive stock of this
and other nations.

To a star.

Beauteous star in the depths OF night.
Say whence cometh thy wondrous
light
Is it a spark from the great unknown.
Does thy radiance come from the great
white throne?
I have gazed on thee oft from this world
AS in the blue depths you sparkle and
glow,
And thought. could the fancy of child
hood be true,
Stars were small holes where heav-
ems glory shone through.
Sometimes as I've gazed on the gem
studded sky
My thoughts like a meteor swiftly
would fly
And species of awe Ger me suddenly
AS l think of the eye that ne'er slum-
bers nor sleeps.
And again as in childhood there cometh
to me
A hope or a phantom. whateer it may
be,
That the friends who have left us and
gone on before
Are waiting for us on the opposite
shore.
And myth though 1t may be twill al
ways be sweet,
To think that once more our kind
friends we may meet.
That each star is a soul with a bright
To tighten our pathway and guide us
to heaven.

Arriving at a Verdict.

Kushequa, Pa, July 10.-(SpecialD-
In this section of Pennsylvania there
is growing belief that for such Kid
ney Diseases as Rheumatism and
Lame Back there is only one sure
cure and that is Dodd's Kidney Pills.
This belief grows from such cases as
that Of Mrs. M. l.. Dawson of this
place. She tells the story herself as
follows:
II have suffered from Rheumatism
for thirty years and find that Dodd's
Kidney Pills have done me more good
than any medicine have ever taken.
I was also bothered with Lame Back
and can only say that my back hasn't
bothered me since l took Dodd's Kid
ney Pills."
Considering that Mrs. Dawson only
took two boxes Of Dodd's Kidney Pills,
the result would be considered wonder
full If it were not that others are re-
porting similar results daily. Kushe-
qua is fast arriving at verdict that
"Dodd's Kidney Pills are the one sure
cure for Rheumatism"

Very primitive water pipes of an an.
cient date have been discovered In the
streets of Manchester. England. They
were hollowed-out tree trunks fitted
together so as to make a wooden con-
duit. The joints were somewhat in
the style of those Of a fishing rod, the
thin end OF one trunk being made to
ut into the thick end of the other. II
Is supposed that this means of supply
Ing Manchester with water was in use
about 200 years ago. and discoveries
OF the same kind made in other towns
go to confirm that view. The boring
through the wood was about four
inches In diameter. The supply of wa
ter In those days was not only much
less In absolute quantity than now, but
very much less in proportion to the
population.
