GUEST Of
THE BISHOP
Bishop of Tahiti Comes
Here With Bishop
Libert.

Right Rev Libert Boeynaems, Bishop
of zeugma. leaves San Francisco after
short visit there in the steamer
Manchuria today. He will be accom-
prelate, Monseigneur Verdier. Bishop
of Tahiti, who will spend some. time
here as the guest of Bishop Libert and
the Catholic Mission.
Bishop Verdier has been in Tahiti for
fifteen years. His presence here will
come opportunely for the celebration
of the Pentecost season by the Catho-
lies. They will have two bishops in
stead of one to conduct the principal
devotions of that occasion. which is
a particularly great religious festival
with the Portuguese devotees.
In san Francisco Bishop Libert was
a guest of Father Lynch, pastor Of st.
James church in Guerrero street. This
is outside of the burned district. He
would have visited the French priests
in Bush street but that they were all
burned out.
Bishop Libert was appointed by Act
ing Governor Atkinson a member of

take charge of the Hawaiian relief
fund for the San Francisco sufferers.

NUUARU PARK SCHEME
AND Watch CARNIVAL

After the editors retired yesterday
afternoon, the Hawaii Promotion Com
mittee transacted two important items
of business.
One of the things done was to renew
the project for establishing a park
along the banks of Nuuanu stream, and
renew it with strong emphasis.
Mr. Gartley, presiding, opened the
subject with strong advocacy.
Fred. c. Smith was very enthusiastic
over il, saying it was master place"
for a city park. On his motion the mat
ter was made a special order of bust
ness for next meeting.
Mr.. Gartley was appointed a commit
tee of one to submit report, also to
present the subject TO the Honolulu
Improvement Committee and the Board
of Health.
One of the arguments presented was
that of the great sanitary Improvement
the scheme would effect.
The other matter was a decision to
hold the water carnival on June ii. 1t
was decided TO have it on the naval
station docks.
A letter had been submitted from I.
V. King, chairman in charge of the
Healani Myrtle water carnival, stating
that it was 'tdeeided to go ahead with
the work of pushing for the carnival on
the 11th of June. 4. E. Murphy was

mittee and any assistance to him would
be gratefully appreciated

Making Plans to Enter
tain Southern Cali
fornia Association.

| Progress was made yesterday in the
plans for entertaining the Southern
| California Editorial Associa ton on its
| projected visit to these islands. A
| conference for this purpose was held
! by the Hawaii Promotion Committee
with the committee of Honolulu edi-
tors at Promotion headquarters in the
Alexander Young building.
A. Gartley presided and others in at
tendance were Secretary H P. Wood,
E. l. Spalding, Fred C. Smith, L. A.
Johnson, Fred. L. Wa,dron, w. r.
Harrington of the Bulletin, Walter C.
Smith of the Advertiser and w. NJ.
Langton of the Paradise.
Some things were definitely assured.

three leading hotels A special train,
for a full days sightseeing along the
line, viii be at the disposal of the
visitors, free, through the courtesy of
the Oahu Railway & Land Co. The
local editorial committee takes the re-
sponsibility of managing an old-fash-
ioned Hawaiian luau in honor of their
fraternal guests
Certain important details are not
definitely settled, though tentatively
ton yet lacking from both ends of the |
line. A trip to the Volcano of Kilauea |
is partly contingent on how long the
visitors can stay in the islands and !
that may be obtained. An itinerary Of |
sightseeing in and about Honolulu is |
placed in the hands of the editorial |
committee, its details being already
fairly. understood but depending ul-
timately somewhat on the time that
will be available. The volcano trip. if
not a rushed ore, may leave but little
time for showing Honolulu. This
whole matter of time depends on the
scheme the visitors may adopt for the
round voyage between San Francisco
and Honolulu. In this particular they
may be helped to the best decision by
suggestions from here already con-
sidered.
Secretary Wood started the business
by stating the purpose of the meeting.

SAN FRANCISCO, May 17.-The re-

effects of the earthquake and the con-
flagration on the better classes of
buildings in San Francisco were. given
yesterday by James L. Mclaughlin, an
service OF joint concerns which employ
on the average 10000 persons in build
ing. He spoke as the representative
of Frank B. Gilbreth of New York

of New York
MY first observation he said, sis
that the only material which both
withstood perfectly the. violent shakes
of the earth and the fierce ravages of
the flames We're concrete and re-en-
forced concrete, where they have been
used here in foundations, floors and in
columns for fireproofing. The Ferry
building, in which concrete flooring
had been laid, was unaffected by the
earthquake, so far as the main build
ing was concerned. An example of its
utility for freproofing was afforded by
the concrete protected columns of the
St Francis Hotel, 1t inclosed the steel
columns and by the protection thus
afforded saved that structure from
burning.
"As to class A steel construction,
the examples where the strength of the
buildings was unimpaired was in those

Ell FRAME BUILDINGS
WITH CONCRETE ARE BEST.

'.To show the advisability of the use
of gusset plates, take the steel cages
standing. Where they have been en-
ployed with stiffeners under girders
and girder beams they have admirably
served the purpose of sway-bracing.
In my opinion class A steel buildings
constructed with gusset plates under
girGers and girder beam, and with
stronger connection are capable of
withstanding any shock such as that
of the recent earthquake. Undoubted-
ly the amended building ordinance will
require stronger connections between
beams and girder beams and if the
girder beams have gusset plates
wherever they are connected with the
columns, the best results will be at
tanned The most important factor
in construction to withstand earth
quake shocks IS to have solid founda-
tions. These may be on piles, but it is
not my purpose to discuss the details
of their employment at this time.
For buildings OF twelve stories Or
over there is the possibility of putting
up steel cages with little extra ex-
pense than now. which would be proof
against any earth vibrations. The
ideal building of this kind would have
re-enforced concrete walls supported
by a. steel cage, and. in turn, strength
ening the steel cage so as to be able
to resist horizontal and upward move
ments This building would have re-
concrete floors and partitions |

building having also wire glass with |
metal sashes, a new kind Of fire floor. |

study of the effects of your great con-
fagration. will give a building which. |

BY WHAT AUTHORITY? +?

A member OF the dominant church
writes pithy article TO The Tribune,
which Is reproduced on this page. 1t
goes to the question OF authority H.
the control Of the affairs OF the church
and over the consclences, acts, and
property OF the members thereof.
This correspondent Is not disposed to
accept without examination the claims
set up by those who are now exercis
ing this autocratic authority. He calls
attention TO the large numbers af-
fected by that autocracy and very
reasonably pleads that it is not enough
merely TO assume that this authority Is
genuine and unquestlonable, IT must
be proved. He holds, and properly so,
that there should not be any objection
on the part either of the lay members
OF the church or of the leaders them
selves. to n candid inquiry into the ma
ture OF their authority. Authorization
is not enough; let us examine and find
out. he says, by whom 1t Is authorized,
In what manner, whether that authori-
zatlon Is valid and sufficient. and
whether 1t is right for the people to
submit to 1t.
Primarily, OF course, the question Is,
whence comes it, An authority which
is merely assumed and which cannot
be traced to any source that is compe-
tent TO authorize the thing claimed or
the acts done by virtue Of that author
ity. cannot stand. The masses of the
Mormon people have submitted to that
authority without examining its source
or its scope or in any way questioning
il for two or three generations. Is 1t
not time that there should be the eX-
animation proposed by our corre-
spondent? His demand is perfectly
reasonable. straightforward. and just.
| In any other form of human activity
| this examination would be made be-
| fore 1t Is submitted to, here the sub
| mission comes first without any exam
| inaton into the reason why the au-
| thority should be exercised. Now that
| the question Is squarely raised, why
not come forward with It's examination
| and let the people judge whether they
| wish to submit to 1T or not2 show
| down is called for. Why should not
| all the Mormon people second this call
| II their claim can be defended, surely
those who exercise this power should
| have nothing to fear.

things are desirable and ought to he
done. 1t js quite a different matter,
however, to point out some practical
way OF achieving the result desired II
marriage is made difficult, then immo-
rality increases. II the criminal class
be denied the ordinary companionshIp
of humanity. 1t becomes worse than
before. Tho human race In its differ
ent species and tribes has tried a great
many forms OF social life, and uni
versally 1t has arrived at about the
same conclusion: that the best thing
TO do on the whole is 10 allow human
inclination, human desire, and human
choice to have its free scope. There
are disadvantages attending this, to
be sure. but there are greater disad-
vantages attending any other method
Of social existence. And until Doctor
Lyndston shall propose a remedy that
is at once effectual and practical his
theory may be dismissed as others
have been in the past, as out OF the
domain of practical life. and go not
worth serious consideration.
