A TEMPLE On

The NEXT
Park E>@ rt Listens to
Idea OF Local
b. sutifiers.

Punchbowl. crowned by structure
of classical design with fiuted columns,
and somewhat resembling the famed
temple of the Acropolis of Athens, is
the latest proposition offered for the
Improvement of Honolulu.
Another is the giving over of one OF
the Kapiolani P; K gardens to repre-
sentatives Of the japanese colony to be
converted into japanese garden and
ornamented with picturesque land
scape gardens and a tea-house.
These suggestions We're made last
night at a meeting of the delegates of
the city improvement clubs who are
soon to form a central or executive
committee. The meeting was held at
the Promotion Committee rooms with
E. L Spalding in the chair and George
Thielen, secretary Others present
were Judge s. B. Dole, Judge Frear,

tive listener. 1t was announced by the
chair that Mr.. Robinson was not YET
ready 10 make an address on the sub
ject of Honolulu's parks and their i'm
provement. but that he was ready at
any time to arrange appointments with
any of the delegates from the clubs
and to be taken to different sections
of the city so that suggestions could be
given him.
AS il is. Mr.. Robinson spends his |

RUSSIA SAYS JAPAN
IS BACKING CHINA

ST. PETERSBURG, February 10
In view of recent events in China the
Russian Government, like that of the
United States. has found it advisabI
to take the necessary military meas
ures to be prepared for all eventuali-
ties. Though the Foreign Office official
sian press and declared to the cor
respondent this afternoon that no
news had been received to excite ap-
prehension. the council of national
defense, which has been preparing to
reduce the forces in the far East to
a minimum. takes a more serious view
of the situation and is revising its
plans for the evacuation of the armies
in Manchuria in order to retain there
a force sufficient to maintain Rus
>ja's special interests on a plane with
the other powers
According to the Slovo the govern
ment is in possession of information
to the effect that CFina is making war
in which she is support
ed almost openly by Japan. and that
an attack on Russia's Ussuri possess
sion is feared. Fears. the SIovo says,
are also entertained over the Chinese
designs to overthrow the Russian in
fiuence in Chinese Turkestan that has
grown up in consequence of the special
trade and military arrangements in
stituted before the breaking out of tn
war

ton. He is making a study of the
exact facts and figures, and it will be
surprising if his direct mode of solving
problems will not soon bear tangible
fruit in this instance.
County Treasurer Trent is quoted by
an evening paper as admitting that
County Attorney Douthitts opinion
hat the county has no authority to
vote aid to Schools reads as good law
and common sense but adding the
reflection that to him as a 1ayman
the parks are exactly in the same
position as the schools
SHOULD BE A REFUND.
IF the Supervisors have received
money which was raised for school
purposes and will not voluntarily ap-
propriate it for the schools they should
De made to do so,'' is the opinion ex-
pressed by Hon. D. L. Wilmington yes
terday in connection with the request
of the Board of Education to the
County Supervisors that some money!
to pay school janitors would be $ack
ceptable, which request was turned
down through the advice of the Coun-
ty Attorney.
There should be some appropriate
legal methods, by mandamus or other
wise, whereby the Supervisors could be
compelled to pay over the money. I
hardly think that they can get school
money and not return it, but / have
not gone into the matter carefully
enough to say what would be the prop
er method of procedure
Would you say that formal de-
mand should be made on them by the
Board of Education?' he was asked.
Without going further into the mat
ter, 1 could not say what should prop
arly be DONE

who is passing through on the Korea
from the Orient, where for some time
past he has been in command
of the Department of the Philippines.
The General is entirely recovered in
health since being succeeded in COM

talked freely of affairs in the Orient.
"In the islands today there are more
people at work than ever before known
in history, and the crops raised this
year were the largest known. A gem

only on the island of Sa-

pie on the Coast. but they are fast
being brought to a satisfactory con-

"There is no truth whatever in the
reports coming from Australian sources
of cholera and plague being prevalent
in the Philippine. There were a few
cases of each, b1: they were only
sporadic and ne.tr at any time did
they get epidemic or beyond the con-
troll of the health authorities. 1t was
only about the usual condition among |
poorly nourished natives. The condi- |
ton of the troops compares favorably |
with that of any division in the Unit |

tary Taft there was more or less con-
Germ and alarm among the natives, who
are thoroughly satisfied with Amer

lea is doing a great work there. The
church. the army and the navy and
Sthe civil government are all working
together for the upbuilding Of the
people. The thought that we went
there for gain has now been dissipated
and the world sees that our work in
establishing a school system, building
harbors and civilizing the country is
for the progress of the people. The
greatest crown in our history is the
work we have done for the Philip
pines.
