ANOTHER EXPLANATION


1@ulAOi A<N NAoos
If Mr.. Staley's explanation in
your issue of the 2oth was accur-
ale, no further mention Of the
commencement affair would be
necessary. but since 1t is mislead-
ing and totally misrepresents the
reason for the objections on the
part of these mentioned in his
article, a further statement seems
opportune.
The sum total Of the objections
was to the charge of an admission
fee at the door; this was the text
and the whole sermon. Personally
I have beeu entirely consistent in
this position having always oppos-
ed an admission fee to commence
ment exercises. | believe the
humblest, poorest Patron of the
schools should be invited TO attend
and should not be barred for lack
of fee; again there are objections
on the part of the membership as
general proposition to the use of
our church for entertainments or
exercises other than religious. for
which fee is charged, it smacks
too much of "a house of merchan-
disc.
There was not the slightest OBJ
lection OH the part of single one
of those mentioned, or of any
member of the church SO far as /
have been able to learn to holding
the exercises in the church and
the effort to make it appear other
wise is, to say the least, absurd.
The best explanation of the
change in places is that it was the
result OF a misunderstanding.

WEDDING GIL IN FRANCE.
Each Couple Is Presented by the
Government with Lit
tie Book.


When the civil ceremony Of
marriage is performed in France
the official who conducts it passes
to the newly-wedded pair a little
book, which is the wedding gift of
the French government. This
book contains an official record of
the wedding and a number of
blank spaces for future births,
marriages and deaths in the fam
lily.
The most important feature Of
the small volume, however, is con-
tanned in about six pages that are
devoted to the special instruc-
tions which the Academy of Medi-
cine has prepared on the care Of
young children. These instruc-
tons number 35 in all and they re-
fer to the feeding and clothing Of
infants and to the further protec-
tion of the helpless child.
This curious little wedding gift
was inspired by the deep thought
which the government has given
to the subject Of the reduction Of
infant mortality,-a problem of the
utmost Importance in view of the
backward movement in popula-
tion in France.

that the sea wall itself was built up

| However that may have been, it is
TACT that when it was desired to erect

first procedure was to link three or

they went down. Engineers even said

best. And the city kept on sinking.
The piles, in many cases. were driven
down one on top of the other without
finding bottom, but at last some of
them would hold firmly, and then up
on these concrete would be poured and

Superintendent Gaines. Everything
else was fake, a deliberate playing
upon popular anxiety. Business men,
the steamship agents, the newspapers,
received nothing up to six O'Clock,
and at that hour it was reported from
the cable Office that there had been no
communication with the mainland by
way of San Francisco since 7:30 in
the morning, and of course it was not
known when communication would be
re-estahlished. Nothing was coming
the other way, via Manila, either

And there was that dispatch stating
that New York had not been able to
raise Oakland, and asking if Honolulu
had any news from San Francisco? At
that time, Honolulu probably knew

of the Rocky Mountains-and Honolulu
knew little enough.

A SECTION OF
BIG BUILDINGS

That part of San Francisco which
has been involved in ruin is the sec
| tion of the city that has of late years
been invaded by the skyscrapers-in-
| mense ten and twelve-story buildings,
| with steel frames and heavy walls of
| pressed brick and stone. It began
with the Chronicle building. followed
closely by the Mills building, ten
stories high and built of yellow brick,
which stands on the water side OF
Montgomery street al the corner of
Bush, and has ended with the compile
ton of the new Merchants Exchange,
on California street below MontgOm-
cry, which was fourteen stories high
and one of the most splendid structures
in the world. The big buildings, the
high ones, were all splendidly finished.
1t paid to finish them splendidly. They
were intended to endure for all time.
Along Montgomery street, from Mar
ket, these buildings in their order made
most wonderful showing of business
stability Perhaps, as the disaster
seems to have had it's center or it's
starting point at the Call building at
Third and Market streets it is well TO
start this slight description of the big
buildings of San Francisco with the
Call building. 1t is a structure familiar
in its aspects TO all Honolulu people.
When it was constructed an excavation
was made and in that were laid fifty
feet depth of railroad iron, the rails
laid across and across and cemented
together. The steel frame of the build
ing proper was bolted to this, and when
the Cali building collapsed it must
have created a tremendous dispIace-
ment of earth and stone. The Calls
presses were in the basement of the
building, and a tunnel ran from this
basement to the basement of the build
ing on Stevenson street, where the
Call editorial rooms were and where
the forms for the paper We're stereo-
typed.
Down Market street, on the same
side, We're the Examiner building. fac
ing the Call across Third street, and
next to that the Nucleus building. now
being raised several stories in height,
where was located the Santa Fe up

Next, across a narrow alley. was tn
Palace Hotel. and below that across
new Montgomery street and connecting
with the Palace by a bridge over the
street, was the Grand Hotel. Both The
Palace and the Grand are gone.
Across the street from the Grand was
the Union Trust skyscraper, and next
TO it and below it on Market street
was the Hobart building, in which was
the Bile office. Opposite the Palace,
at the gore formed by Market and
Post streets. was the splendid Croker
building, one of the most imposing i'm
San Francisco. Then, returning up
Market street, the Chronicle building

and on a lower level than the call

disaster.
1t had been cabled to the local cable
Office that the San Francisco office must
cease sending, the fire driving the oper-
ators into the street. That was at 1870
IN the morning. 1t had been presumed
that the cable operatives would go at
once to the landing station near the
Cliff House, and continue sending mes
sages from there. They did not do
that. 1t may have been that, the city
being put at once under martial law,
the operators were not permitted to
work. That is mere possibility. 1t
Is not at all probable. The military
authorities themselves would try to re-
heve popular anxiety everywhere
And, when a message was sent from
here to New York via Manila, and
failed to draw my information con
corning the disaster, anxiety in Homo
lulu rose to the point of frenzy. 1t was
seen that the disaster must have been
more widespread than the dispatch in
the morning to Cable Superintendent
Gaines would indicate. 1t was feared
Oakland was involved and San Jose
and that all the region about the bay
was affected more or less. Why did not
