If it be true that the degree o' peoples civilization is indicated oA the treatment accorded it's prisoners of war. it also should be true that { fair test of advancement IS 10 pt found in the manner people treats it's prisoners of the other hnd-those who have fallen into the clutches ol authority through malefactions. iht first class of prisoners represents Vio' lators of international law, the seconc class breakers of civil laws, but the same considerations of humanity and fairness are supposed to govern the treatment of both.
 Applying this standard. the treat pent of prisoners by the police of the large American cities would indicate that our civilization was that of the seventeenth century. Chicago, With ifs high percentage of criminals and ifs more or less inefficient police force is by no means the most clVlllzed of the cities of the country as %ua2ed bv her way of handling known or SnS- pected criminals But the sweat box and the third degree are to be taken as American. and not as dlsllnc= i've of police methods in Chicago. In fact, one of the chict ltclsnses ol the local police in the matter is present. cd in their statement that we handle 'em With gloves here as compared with what they do in other big cities. If that be true, the third degree in "oiher big cities" must stop little short of manslaughter.
 Mysteries of "DownStairs.'
 The "sweatbox," to which reference is made daily in the newspapers in connection with criminal cases, far from being d box, is a system. It's logical continuation is the third de- gree, which is also d system, the manifestations of which usually are so brutal and torturous as to render il clearly illegal Much of what goes on in the foul-smellinG and mNSteti- ous regions known to the police as downstairs the basement cellrooms at the city hall and other important iOlice stations never finds it's way tG the public and therefore there is lit tie to prevent the operation of the system whenever the police see fiji to apply it,

of the party. If the arrested person is a known thief. for instance, and in formation concerning his own opera lions or those of other thieves is sought there is likely to be little lenl- encv shown in case the thief refuses to divulge what he knows. Being a thief there is little probability of his making any systematic attempt to re- taliate against the police for their treatment of him, and just as little likelihood that anybody is going to believe what he says. Even if he were believed the majority of those hearing his story would pay little heed, be- cause they would argue that i'll all probability he deserved all he got, whether it was administered accord- ing to law or not. Therefore, the wise thief or other criminal takes what he gets and keeps his counsel.
 Revenge Plays Its Part.
 Tn the event, however, that the ar rested person is only suspected of crime, and was therefore unknown to the police, more caution is exercised in handling him. There always is the chance that such person may prove his innocence and produce influential friends who may take up any indigni- ties offered him while under arrest. The greatest severity is used by the police against that class of evildoers who have inflicted injury on fellow policeman. For such as these the third degree is worked without Om- ission of any of it's substantial fea- lures.

 The burglar was knocked down and unmereifully beaten by the policeman, while others stood around The hammering continued until the most hardened criminal would have been pounded into a state of proper sub missiyeness and would think twice be- fore he assaulted another police of ficer. There was no complaint. It was the third degree" for revenge

perhaps our speed had a good deal
to do with it also" continued Captain
Gallagher. although our average
weight is about $50 pounds when in
training there Is not a man but can do
a hundred yards in close upon eleven
seconds. Naturally enough this means
that the men are quick in the get
away and in football this is every
thing. A quick Splinter starts at full
speed, he does not have to work up his
speed i'm the first half dozen PAGES. A
yard gained at the start simply puts
the pursuer out of the chase. OF course
with a good lead the impetus of about
$50 pounds going at a lively clip makes
tackling a bit hard"
Captain Gallagher was asked as to
dieting.
ooh we don't do any dieting" he said
the boys eat and drink just what they
want to, with moderation of course.
Nearly all of us drihk beer, or rather
what you call ale, with meals and some
take an occasional whiskey but never
in the slightest degree to excess. As to
pastry few eat it, but that is mat
ter of personal preference, they can eat
it if they want to. Moderation is the
only detail we have tried to impress
on the boys throughout the entire trip"
Captain Gallagher had no excuses to
make for the defeat his men suffered
at the hands of the Welshmen the only
defeat in their whole tour.
1.-THE Welsh team is a hard nut to
crack he said. "They beat us by 8
points to 0, just securing one try, or
touchdown, as you call it. But it must
be remembered that we had played
Cheshire and Yorkshire within the
week and It was pretty hard going.
There was a tremendous crowd at the
Welsh game which was played in Car
diff. The railroads actually stopped
selling tickets to Cardiff for the peo-
pie were coming from every part of
England, Scotland and Ireland to see
the game.
our trip has been most satisfactory
! am very glad to say. 1t may sur
prise you that the initial expenses to
the New Zealand Rugby Union amount
ed to about seven thousand pounds.
The gates more than paid this back
and we are returning with a handsome
balance. OF course none of us share
in this for we are proud to say that we
are amateurs in the strictest sense. AS
a matter of fact the trip will cost each
of us personally anywhere between a
hundred and two hundred pounds.

world will know that New Zealand is

CONSUL OTHER

TOXIC, February 3, 19O6-On the
evening of February 1, a joint meet
ing of the repre- sentatives of all the
emigration companies of Japan was
held at the Hotel Metropole in Toxic,
and each company was either repre-
scented by its president or managing
director
Among the principal speakers of
the evening were the Hon. Mr.. Ishii,
Chief ON the Bureau of Communica-
lions of the Foreign Department, the
Hon. M. Saito, japanese Consul General
at Honolulu, and r. Horiguchi, Esq,
First Secretary of the Japanese Lega-
ton at Valparaiso. These and other
speakers all dwelt strongly on the great
necessity of consolidation with espe-
cial view of the urgency of a Business
that shall be conducted with uniform
methods and regular system and
method.
Consul General Saito especially laid
great stress upon the present condi-
ton of affairs in the Hawaiian Islands
and stated that the absolute lack of
unity of purpose and method was de-
plorable and had been NOSE severely
felt.
A second conference of the emigra-
tion companies was held on the follow
ing evening at the same place, when
after a lengthy and heated debate, an
amalgamation of all the companies was
finally effected A delegate was at
once chosen to wait upon Mr. Kato,
the new Minister of Foreign Affairs
and it Can be definitely stated that
the amalgamation will have the full

cabinet The following officers were

1--WE play the ball and not the man"
said Captain Gallagher of the world
famous New Zealand Rugby football
team when in Honolulu the other day.
II would not like to attempt a criticism
of the American Collegiate game for
the very good reason that have never
seen it played but from what have
read of it, it seems that a feature of
the play is the disabling of opponents
with our game such an end is not even
dreamed of. We keep after the ball
We have no mass plays and Of course,
no interference. To be i'm play a man
must be behind the ball. Certainly
Rugby football as we play'it is not a
parlor game but it is fact that in all
the games we have played, against the
best teams in the old country we have
only had one accident and that was
a broken collar bone The man was
well again in a short time and was
soon playing again. Yes, I'm a bit
proud of that record"
Captain Gallagher was asked as to
what he Thought was the largest con-
tributing cause to his teams astonish-
ing series of victories over the best
that England, Scotland and Ireland
could produce.
"In a large sense our succ, SIS was
due to a new system of play that we
evolved in New Zealand" he said. THE
British teams play with eight forwards
two halves, four three-quarters and
one full back. We've changed that
and play seven forwards, one wing
forward one serum half back, two
five-eights backs three three quarters
an a full back"
Wing forward" and serum half back
were new names even to one who
thought he knew something about foot
ball so enlightenment was sought.
well, the wing forward plays close
up with the forwards but is not one of
them He always puts the ball i'm the
serum, when it is our ball, and if he
sees fit he can add his weight to the
serum though that is not his work. He
keeps a close watch for the ball of
course to get it if heeled out. Yes, we
are one man weaker in the serum than
are the other side but We figure it that
seven men can hold eight if their
strength is properly applied, and we
have a way of our own of packing it in
Then as to the serum half back, he
plays very close up to the serum and
the five Fights play close up to him
again, read for an instant pass. We
find three three-quarters plenty. What
is the use in having four men there
when three will do? 1t is simply
keeping a man out of the play.
