ALL HONOR
ST. PATRICK
Big Turnout for IreIand's
Patron Last
Night.

Ireland's patron saint, Patrick by
name, was remembered by the sons
and daughters of Erin in Honolulu
yesterday in manner which was
quite befitting such an occasion BY
day, several flags of Erin f1oated to
body. it seemed, whether Irish or not,
wore the green.
1t was reserved for the Ladies' Aux
iliary and Division No. L, Ancient Or
der of Hibernians. to particularly give
Honolulu an opportunity to learn
something of what the day really
means to the Irish, at an entertain
ment given last evening in the Hawai-
ian Opera House. In music and ora
tory the two organizations presented
a fine program to an audience which
filed the theater to oVerfowing. 1t
was one of the best entertainments OF
the kind ever attempted by the Hiber-
mans. Every number on the program.
literary and musical, was encored,
thereby lengthening out the exercises.
but as every number was excellent the
audience was so much the gamer.
The st. Louis College Orchestra was
a revelation of excellence. 1t is COM
posed mainly of young students and
some of the instructors and is an Or
ganiza ton of which the Catholic COM
munity may well be proud. It's sew
eral selections, especially the overture,
1.-The Caliph of Bagdad," and it's ac-
compartments for the large choir of the
school, were of unusual merit. The
choir is a fine organization.
Rev. Father Valentin sang 1.-THE
Last Chord" in a manner which call
ed for prolonged applause and he re-
sponded with a popular air with words
appropriate to the day. Master wal
ter Cough rendered a violin solo so
acceptabI that the audience demand
ed an encore. The young fellow is
improving wonderfully and last nights
performance indicates that he has
fine future. Madame Alapai sang
Kathleen Mavourneen" beautifully
and Hugo Herzer sang Killarney IN
his usual pleasing manner
John Akana's bassoon solos were
novelties to the audience. Bruce
Hartman recited several of Eugene
Fields poems in a. manner which
kept the audience, and especially the
laughter.
Irish Love Song was one of the gems
of the evening. Mr. A. B. angus.
recent arrival in Honolulu, has a fine
voice and his tenor solo, Colleen"
was especially pleasing. Miss Adele
de PArtigue appeared in a buck and
wing dance. Miss de TArtigue is a
clever dancer and attired in a pretty
costume of green and pink, she made
a distinct hit Her dance was preceded
by a ballad which she sang quite
prettily.
Not the least to contribute to the
was Miss Rice, as ac-
companist, and \. E. Murphy. as stage
director.

CARTER PLANS
To RETURN
IN MAY
Not Thought Ills Health
Will Be Recovered
Sufficiently.

Governor Carter plans to come home
on the first big steamer to leave San
Francisco in May. That would be the
Korea, due here on May 22nd.
''It was the tentative plan of the
Governor when he went away" said
one of the closest friends of the Chief
Executive yesterday, ito return to
Honolulu on the first big. boat leaving
the coast in May. Whether this plan
will be carried out, cannot tell at the
present time. I have not heard frsm
the Governor directly
When the last letter was received
here from Governor Carter. he was in
Redlands, having failed at the time to
secure the accommodations that he
wanted at the Raymond Hotel, in
Pasadena, and he was not at that time
gaining in strength quite as fast as it
had been hoped that he would.
Since then, it. is known that he did
go to Pasadena-and nobody in Homo
lulu now knows just where he is. 1t
v
and Mrs. Carter went away, to pro-
ceed at once to Southern California,
and to move about there from place to
place as fancy dictated, or as the con-
sdition of the Governors health seemed
to require. The Governor gave an in
terview to the San Francisco papers in
which he said that he had no purpose
to resign, but would come back and
take control here when he gained
strength enough.
1t is not believed at the Capitol that
he viii come home as soon as May,
however. The Governor was a much
.sicker man than even his physician
was inclined to admit when he went
away from here. and the advices con-
tained in the only letter received from
him here, as has been said, was not so
reassuring as had been hoped.
1t was no part of the Governors
purpose, either, when he went away, to-
pay a visit to washington before COM
ing home. In fact, the Governor had
no plans, when he went away, other
than plan to make up his mind what
he would do when he got to Southern
California, and that other tentative
plan TO return by the first big steamer
leaving San Francisco in May.

JUTE NALL.
IN PRISON
High Sheriff Henry's Plan
to Utilize Convict
Labor.
ASSOCIATED Press Cablegram.)

/('I do not know any good reason why
/fhe three hundred or more prisoners
in the Territorial penitentiary should
not be put to work making jute bags,
said High Sheriff Henry yesterday.
This Territory imports annually $500,
900 worth of jute bags for sugar and
rice. I am of the opinion that at least
a part of this money can be saved,
and the prisoners put at a labor which
will not be in competition with citizen
labor And I have written to the
Warden of the San Quentin prison, in
California, asking him for data as to
the cost of a plant for making sacks,
where the jute is obtained and about
the process of its manufacture.
II will have this data for presenta-
ton to the Legislature, and L would
like in the meantime to get all the
information that 1 can relative to the
subject
High Sheriff Henrys idea is certain
ly worthy of very serious considera-
ton. The utilization of prison labor
is one OF the gravest problems that
confronts modern governments. 1t IS
conceded that prison labor should not
be brought into competition with Ia
Dor outside the prison walls. In sew
eral of the States schemes to avoid
this competition have been tried, and
The sentiment against it is a growing
one. On the other hand the treadmili
and things of that kind represent so
much energy wasted, and political
economists abhor that.
The jute mill in the California
prison of San Quentin has, perhaps,
been one of the happiest solutions OF
the problem so far tried There is d
market in the California grain fields
for hundreds of thousands of burlap
sacks annually. Jute is not grown nor
manufactured in California, and the
cnly labor the prison jute mill comes
into competition with is the cheap Ia
Dor III India. The prison-made sacks,
of course, can not supply the Califor-
MIA demand, but they do serve as a
check to keep down the prices and the
manufacture is thus a double benefit
to the State
In Hawaii there is a condition very
similar to that which exists in Cali
fornia. Thousands of sacks are i'm
ported into the islands annually. and
il the prison labor is used in the vr3n-
ufacture of sacks to help meet this de-
ton, as it does to a certain extent
now. with the free labor. In Hawaii
there is large labor element, as
everybody knows, that must get work
on the roads if it is to work at all.
The matter was threshed out in the
last Legislature, and is threshed out
At every sesSion-but the prisoners
continue to work in the quarries and
on the roads because no other work
can be found for them to do. They are
sentenced to hard labor. If High
Sheriff Henry's plan of jute mill for
the prison is feasible. there will be so
much more work for unskilled cite ems
If they want to do it,
The jute itself might even be grown
here in certain localities. as it requires
a hot. moist soil, with plenty of rain
fail. 1t is produced, commercially. for
the most part in Bengal.

DIRECTORY MAKERS
WAR NO MORE

The directory war is a thing of the
past and the banner of Hustled f1aunts
its folds over the hard-fought field.
The late F. NJ Hustled, who has
catalogued the residents of Honolulu
for many years past, was for years a
member of the Association of Ameri-
can Directory Publishers, an associa-
ton formed for the purpose of mutual
protection and. incidentally, the pro-
lection of the public.
A few months ago Mesdames Lennon
and Earle essayed the task of getting
out a directory of Honolulu along new
their new enterprise literally and
hustled around after business. their eff
forts being rewarded with considerable
success.
The Hustled people took umbrage
when they heard of the contemplated
poaching on their preserve and referred
the matter to the association, which in
turn enlisted the services of r. l..
Polk & Co, the heaviest directory pub
fishers in the United States. to protect
the Hustled interests.
Just what arguments were brought
to bear is not known. but the fact re-
mains that the Lemmon-E Earle rom5ina-
tion have changed their minds about
publishing a local directory and that
as of yore the name of Hustled will
appear on the hy-Ieaf of the coming
publication which. it is promised. will
contain a greater mass of accurate
matter than any of it's predecessors.
The Lennon Earle contracts nave been
transferred to Mr.. Stenhouse, the rep
resentative of Mrs. Hustled and the
Association.

INDICTED BY
Hi. .O GRAND
JURY
W.T.. Rowland Arrested
on Embezzlement
Charges.

Last night High Sheriff Henry ar
rested T. NJ Rowland upon three
charges of embezzlement on warrants
sent to him from Hilo, where Rowland
was indicted by the grand jury. The
Indictments of Rowland We're placed on
the secret file. pending his arrest in
Honolulu.
1t is charged in the three indictments
propriated to his own use and benefit
money collected by him from certain
Japanese for license to do business in
Hilo. Rowland was a captain of the
Hilo police under the old regime, and
presumably the money that he is al
legged to have embezzled was taken
when he was in that office. He
will be sent ITO Hilo for trial on the
next Kinau.
Rowland is of a Honolulu family,
and is one of the most prominent
young Hawaiians in the Territory. He
was a leading Republican politician
during the county campaign in Ha
waii, and when the Home Rule sheriff
was elected was one of the policemen
who continued to claim his place after
the sheriff had appointed his own
policemen, the old crowd with Row
land holding on by commission from
the Board of Supervisors. Rowland
remained in Hilo for some time after
that matter was settled in favor of the
sheriff, and when charges We're made
against Jailor Maby recently, of
cruelty to prisoners. Rowland was
Rev. Mr.. Desha's candidate for the job
of iailor. He came to Honolulu on
this business some time ago, having
the backing of the Hilo Young Mems
Republican Club, and presented his
claim to Maby's job to the High
Sheriff and to the Governor.
There was nothing doing. as the Off
cials had concluded to give Maby a
chance to be heard in court, and so
Rowland went to work as a linemanf
for the Telephone Company here. He
has been in this employment for about
two months, but always with a wealth
er eye out for political doings.
At midnight, Rowland was released
on bail

Some Criticism Of Ideas Held by the
Great Frenchman.

Napoleon said at st. Helena that his
glory consisted not in having won

in the deliberations Of the council OF

Savigny and Charles Austin con-

law and the customs" three-fourths
OF its contents having been extracted
by craftsmen from printed treatise.
The code, In a word, was not a sub

an immense body Of Jurisprudence ex'

One OF the dlctator's Objectionable
