AN INTERESTING EFFORT.

How to improve beggars and tramps is one of the modern problems. Some
 think that they can't be improved. They themselves don't care much about being improved. But an organization in the Netherlands is trying to improve some of them, The organization calls itself Tl,e Society for the Moral and Temporal Improvement of Beggars and Tramps. In the province of Gelderland the society has established two institu- tions which operate as a refuge for beg gars, tramps, discharged convicts and homeless wayfarers-a motley collection of human failures. The inmates are re- quired to hustle at farm work, and they are allowed 8 maximum weekly wage of one florin, payable only at the time of their discharge. They enter the in stitution at their own volition and quit when they please. Lectures are occa- sionally provided, talks are given by the superintendent, moral tonics are administered, all the available salvage is sought from the social wreckage, and serious effort is made to send the inmates out with new and firmer grip
 The society thinks it has made some progress, and it hopes to make more. It is wholly divorced from government supervision and support, and is sup ported by voluntary subscriptions.

Extensive projects for the establish rlent of ironworks on the west coast of Sweden are now under consideration, but 1t is alleged that such works, in or der to be successful, must not be de- pendent on the home markets, but be in position to manufacture cheaply and compete with other produce in the markets of the world. This, 1t is ad- mitted, is of more importance to the rev industry than either an export duty on iron or heavy customs duties on foreign produce introduced into Sweden

The Atlanta Constitution objects to the idea that there Is a new Bryan. It says: The change may seem almost a paradox, but it is not MT Bryan who has changed. He has simply been vim dicated by the mutations of time. The things he fought for have been proved to be right and "safe and sane" He was the pioneer who blazed the way for the inevitable federal war on Trusts, and it was his early shibboleth of civic reform and righteousness that called the American people from their deadly coma of Indifference and ignorance to wide-awake political activity against their corporate oppressors and despoil- CTS. Bryanism is eminently respectable to-day. The Roosevelt Republicans have adopted it, and even men who posed as Democrats. yet gave aid and comfort to Democracy's enemies in those days-even these are showing symptoms of cuddling up to itr

A general order has been issued by the War department changing the sys- tenn of recruiting in several important particulars. Hereafter men will not be enlisted at the regular recruiting of-
 fees in cities and towns where agen- cies are established, but after they have been selected they will be sent to mill itary posts for examination by army surgeons before they are finally accept ed. If the men are rejected they will be returned to their homes at the ex- pense of the government. The new ar
 rangenent will make 1t unnecessary to discharge men after they have been in the service for a short time because of some physical defect. Recruiting off, cers will not be responsible in a pecun- iary way for enlisting men who are un- fit for the army unless they have care- lessly admitted the men for enlistment.

TUCSON, Oct. 19.-Colonel Epes Randolph arrived in the city yester- day morning from Yuma where he has been giving personal supervision to the work of repairing the damage done by the giving way of the Redwood gate. Colonel Randolph will return to Yu. man this evening.
 He stated that the repair work is progressing very favorably and that the indications are excellent that the Colorado will eventually be turned back into its old channel.
 A dam is being constructed 10 take the place of the big gate. This is a gigantic task, but everything has pro gressed favorably thus far and unless the unforeseen should happen, the. dam will be completed within a very short time.
 Several pile drivers are being used and large number of men and teams With the dam completed. the river will be eventually controlled by means of the concrete headgate. If success crowns these efforts, as there is every indication at present it will, the great. est engineering feat ever seen in this section will have been accomplished The Colorado is a decidedly uncertain river and the task of turning this troublesome stream is one of big pro portions. The river drains country for hundreds of miles, and during the rainy season the river rises rapidly and to a considerable height and is very swift

WORKERS
Put in Active Sunday
at Different
Places.

The service at the Rapid Transit
mems clubhouse yesterday morning at
10 O'Clock was in the nature of an
experience or testimony meeting.
/ Everyone present took part, and found
themselves much encouraged and
strengthened by hearing each Of the
others trials and triumphs, both as
men and as Christians.
The services at the prison, in charge
of John NJ Martin, were specially
bright and hopeful. Secretary Brown
I carried strong message of good cheer
to all, showing that, with a faithful
purpose to serve Christ in their hearts
on leaving their present surroundings,
a life of honor and usefulness was
possible to each one. Mr.. Day and
Mr.. Miller both spoke with their usual
vigor and emotion. A special feature
Of the meeting was the singing of two
selections by a strong chorus from Mr..
Riders Kakaako mission and a finely
rendered solo by Miss Maddox.
There was a good attendance at the
$50 D. m. meeting in Association Hall.
DR.. Doremus Scudder was at his best,
and spoke powerfully on the subject
of prayer. He quoted many passages
of scripture proving the almost incon-
ceivable and illimitable power of
prayer, when properly used. He also
gave several instances of almost mirac-
uious and instantaneous answers to
prayer in his own family. Many ex-
pressed themselves as greatly helped
by the speakers able and earnest ex-
position.
At the close of the supper following
the address, Secretary Brown, who |
sewers his official connection with the |
association at the end of this month. |
received many expressions of esteem |
and regard not only from the president |
and members of the various commit |
tees, but from others who had learned |
to love him for his Christian courtesy !
in meeting them as strangers in the |
city and at the hall.

JAPANESE
'GRAFTERS
Reason Why Honolulu
People Can't Keep
Servants.

By reading the following article from
the English part of the Hawaii Shinpo
of this date, many housekeepers of
Honolulu will know why they have
trouble in retaining the services of
Japanese servants:
"From Makiki district come reports
Of much trouble caused by Japan
csc employment agents who are said to
be the cause of the many changes of
positions by japanese servants. 1t has
long been source of complaint among
those who employ japanese as house
servants that the servants do not re-
main in one place long, and according
to the Makiki report, that is due large
1y to the scheming of the employment
agents. The latter get those for whom
they secure positions under their con-
troll and then shift them around, max
ing them change jobs. On each change
they get commission, for securing
job or for getting a servant. 1t is
nice grating scheme, and all the
agents need is to have servants NOV
ing around often enough, to enable
them to make fortune. Similarly, it
is said, hotel men are causing trouble
by their work in connection with I'M
migration to the Coast. They are al
ways sending people away, and they
keep a lot ON hand, waiting for a
steamer. If there is to be some time
before the steamer goes, the Japanese
who are waiting are turned over to
work as servants, whether they know
anything about such work or not. They
are to hold themselves ready to leave
their positions whenever notified to do
so. From this system come the incom-
petent servants and many OF the sud
den designations from jobs.
''The best remedy is probably a
license law to regulate the employment
agency business There are too many
employment agents. The result is that
in order to make a living they have to
spend about as much effort getting peo-
pie out of jobs as getting them IN.
When a man is gotten out of his job, |
there is a fee in getting him another.
Men who are utterly ignorant and IRE
sponsible come to Honolulu and, willing |
to do anything to escape real work on
plantation, they open an employment |

concern that preys upon its neighbor-
hood.
eff the Legislature will pass a law
recurring a reasonable license to be |
paid by employment agents, there will
be far less of them. 1t might also
make provision for some sort of bond,
to insure responsibility. Honolulu is in
danger of being crowded by small,

OREGON GIRLS ENJOY
OUTING At HALEIWA

and conducted by Mr.. Downing. went
to Haleiwa, stopping off en- route at
Eva plantation, which they inspected
under the direction of L. P. Tenney.

estate. The methods of producing
sugar were entirely new to the young
ladies and it proved an interesting ex-
cursion. The party was then picked up
by the regular Waialua train and
taken to the hotel
In the evening the lanais were clear
ed and a dance was given in honor Of
the Oregon girls, which was largely at
tended. Many OF the plantation folk
were present and there was, OF course.
