IAUKEA STIRRING
UP RURAL POLICE

As a consequence of the trip around
the island now being made by Sheriff
Iaukea there has been a considerable
shaking up of the country police and
q. renewal of activity upon their part.
At each Of the points visited by the
Sheriff he has addressed the police,
urging them TO the proper enforce
ment of the law and the suppression
of gambling and other fragrant mis-
demeanors. He has also selected
number of responsible persons I'm the
districts visited and commissioned them
as special officers to assist the regular
force and see that the law is properly
enforced in their districts. Today the
Sheriff is at waialua and is expected
to return to Honolulu today.
In his trip the Sheriff was preceded
by Lieutenant Luahiwa, who arrived
at Kahana in time to secure evidence
for the conviction OF a Chinaman for
Illicit liquor selling, and Of a japanese
doing a butcher business unlicensed.
The Chinaman was fined 800 and costs
and a small fine given the Jap.
Following the liquor case a charge
Of bribery was laid against the China
man. who offered s. to a police officer
to have the case dropped. passing
over the money in the presence Of wit I
1esses.

HARD RULES FOR CHILDREN.

LONDON, March DIR. George Car
penter, prominent authority on the
diseases and treatment of children, in
a lecture before the Institute of Hygi-
enc, laid down several rules for child
rearing, one of which was that chill
dren must never be excused from eat
ing wholesome food when it is set be-
fore them.
They must be made to eat it willy
nilly, he said, and mothers must not
be frightened when they scream or
otherwise protest. There must be no
second helpings to dainties. If a child
processes to be hungry after 1t has had
its share, bread must be given to It,
DR.. Carpenter condemned currants,
which, he said, were excessively indi-
gestible and had not the least nutri-
tive value. Children should never
taste currant sultan cakes or plum
They should have no light |
at night, and should not be allowed to |
stay up after bedtime.

the local school. has adopted a prae-
tical method of testing the severity OF
the punishment inflicted on a pupil
whose parents complained 90 the board
that the headmaster had caned their
boy viciously. The clergyman went 20
the school and asked the headmaster
to administer the same sort OF whack-
ing 10 him 50 that he might fudge
whether the parents complaint was
justified.
The headmaster said the boy hal six
strokes. three on each hand.
Very WELL" said the parson. smIl-

In the presence Of the assistant
teacher and the scholars he held out
his hand. The headmaster let 90 good

or more than three times the total
amount Of taxes collected in 1892, three
years after the first section of the rail-
way built was opened.
The total for 1905 was 1,126,6 658.32, but
a footnote states that, owing to appeals
to the Supreme Court, taxes in Eva
and Waianae amounting to $4,000 were
paid in 1905 which otherwise would
have been paid in 1904.
Another reason for the decrease in
1906 as compared with 1905 is that only
six months of the income tax was col
lected in 1906.
Mr.. Dillingham;, referring to the tax
figures, laid stress on the small in
crease of revenue from Koolaupoko, as
yet not penetrated by the rails, amount
ing as stated above to about s26Oo, in
with an increase of $780,

doubled taxes from Koolauloa where
the railway terminates.

laupoko, without the railway, would

sions.
On January 1, 1900, he founded Zion
City, which grew to a population of
10000 ,T1a,eons, connected with the in
dustries he had founded there. Then
he extended his mission to New York,
from which time dated his downfall.
In Gotham he was laughed at and his
mission proved a fiat failure.
Then came financial troubles in Zion.
His claim of personal ownership of
church property was disputed and he
was finally deposed from the leadership
and practically driven from the church
and city he had founded. This occur
red during the past year, following an
attempt of the prophet to form colony

He went to Melbourne, built a taber-

a divine healing association, which aft

Benjamin F. Dillingham;, promoter of
the Oahu railway and its general man
ager from the start. when spoken to
about railway extension on the Island
of Hawaii, pointed to the above pas
sage in the recently published letter Of
o. P. Austin, Chief of Bureau of Statis-
tics, Departent of Commerce and La
Dor, to the Hawaii Promotion Commit
tee.
Every word there is true" Mr.. Dill
lingham said, so far as the productive
capability of the islands is concerned.
But the islands will never yield the
products mentioned by Mr.. Austin to
any material degree until the country
is opened up with railways to give pro-
ducers access to market at a cost that
will leave them fair profits on their
enterprise.
what the railway has done on this
island is the best evidence Of what may
be expected, and even assured, from
the building of railways on the. other
islands. There Is a large aSricuitoAei

SCHOOLS CROWDED.
Additional Room for Two Grades a
Necessity.

Notwithstanding the fact that the
school census shows a decrease over
last year of 81 in number of chill
dren of school age in the district,
the school board is confronted with
the problem of providing additional
room.
The crowded condition of two
grades is where the trouble exists.
The 5th and 9Th grades are over
loaded, one teacher last year being
required to handle as high as IS
pupils. 1t is conceded that this is
far too many young folks at the
average age of IL years for one
teacher to handle with young Ameri-
cans as full of mischief as they are
nowadays, not a drone in the
bunch.
The board is engaged in seeking
additional room for these crowded
grades and has options on several
different quarters, among them be-
ing rooms in the Clark block. North
western hotel and the Anton
Schmitt building near the depot.
