REVISION AT HOME AND ABROAD
 Other countries are having revision troubles of their own. We learn from our esteemed contemporary, the Lon don Times, that the matter of the revision of the Prayer book is being agitated over there. The Prayer book being in a way a national institution it must be revised if at all by par liament Though it is admitted that the Prayer book is somewhat behind the march of progress and ought to be brought up to date, the same is offered that was urged by our stand-patters against the election of a democratic congress to tinker with tariff When there is to be a re- vision of the tariff it must be sup erintended by its friends. It is point ed out by the friends of the Prayer book that there is such an array of Jews. infidels and heretics" in par liament that to use an expression of the street, the things they might do to the Prayer book would be a plenty.
 In view of this warning there is a disposition among churchmen to stand pat and let the Prayer-book alone un- til happier times.

LENIENCY
TO MANY
BUTCHER OF WOMAN AT JUDGE
LINDSAY'S HOME WILL BE AR
.RAIGNED ON MONDAY.

Suspensions of sentences and nolle
prosequis were the order of the day
before Judge De Bolt this morning.
Charles YarTick, the juror who
nearly broke up a trial a while ago
and was dismissed from the panel by
reason of his condition, had sentence
for drunkenness suspended for thir-
teen months.
George Kaea, one Of the gamblers
whose conviction A. p Taylor effect
ed the other day, pleaded guilty to
the additional charge of being pres
ent at a gambling game and had SEN
tence suspended for thirteen months.
]. ]. Combs was released under a
nolle prosequi from the charge Of
unlawful possession Of intoxicating
liquor.
Okirali ct ais, present at gam
bling, offered a plea in mitigation
and judgment was modified from $1S
and costs to IS and costs each.
Kekekuyo, a Japanese woman,
pleaded guilty to the two charges Of
larceny in the second degree and
vagrancy. Sentence In each case was
suspended for thirteen months. She
was accused of abstracting some lit
tie cash from naval sailor, but the
victim being now far away trial
would be futile.
A nolle prosequi was entered for
Nakamura and others, charged with
being present at a gambling game.
On Monday there will be arraign-
ments under recent indictments, the
most notable one being that of Ka-
nagawa for murder in the first de-
gree. He is the Japanese who killed
woman at Judge Lindsay's resi-
dence, nearly severing her head from
the body
Manuel Ferreira and F. Marks will
be arraigned for larceny in the first
degree, and Yee Sui for burglary in
the first degree.

occurring to interests desiring SIM

turally be to secure, if possible, men
already acquainted with the method
of gathering in these people from the
cold regions of the Far East; from
wherever the Russian people are find
ing it difficult to wrest from the world
a living; to bring them where they
will benefit their adopted country and
derive great good themselves.
Atkinson has Hawaii's interests at
heart first of all, however, and he is
enthusiastic in his contemplation of
the future of these islands through i'm
migration.
Atkinson gives out the thought that
there is no reason to doubt but that
in time the tide of immigration of GER
tain Europeans will be across the Pa
cific instead of across the Atlantic
ocean; that instead of crowding to New
York, they will some day be assem-
bling at San Francisco for distribution
among the States, or at Vancouver for
distribution in the Dominion of Canada,
and that Honolulu at the outpost of
Pacific America, will have the pick of
the cream OF immigrants passing
across the Pacific toward the Americas.
The great Siberian railway will be
the means. Why should not Euro
peans come to America by going east
as we'll as by going west? says Atkin-
son.
Crying for freer lands and better
chances of living, hundreds of thou
sands of Russians, for example, may
be brought to America in this manner.
And Hawaii has led the way; Ha-
waii has started the scheme going.

The rest of the world is sitting up
to encourage desirable immigration,
and the latest immigration move Of
this Territory, in importing Russians,
with A. l.. G. Atkinson as the repre-
sentative of the local government at
the source of the labor supply referred
to, has particularly attracted the at
tention of Canada. In fact there are
Canadian interests which much desire
to take Atkinson away from Hawaii
and use him to their own ends, with a
view to Hawaiis loss becoming Ca
nada's gain.
To develop her immense resources
Canada is anxious to encourage immi-
grafton of peoples hardy, healthy and
with some agricultural talent, and the
reports that have been broadcasted
from Honolulu concerning the latest
labor importation in Hawaii, the COM
ing of two hundred and more Russians
who were as glad to get here as we're

Tolstoi is living perpetuum mobile: his
mind always works: he studied many
things: ne thought many thoughts; he
was always looking for the sources Of
truth. for the truth itself, and. after all.
he Is still thirsty for the truth. and his
mind is always occupied with new ways,
with new means how to find 1t. Tolstoi
never accepted so-called axioms about
truth before he himself analvled them
and proved them: he never took for grant,
ed conventional laws. In the sieve Of his
mind he sifted the traditional customs
and habits which we inherited from our
predecessors and fearlessly proclaimed
what he himself thinks about them. Be-
sides Tolstoi is one of those rare preach
ers whose actions go hand in hand with
his teachings. Tolstoi is against books
whose purpose is only amusement and not
something higher. e.. some moral les
sons. He is also against those writer's
who. as he said. bake books.
"A manuscript" he said to me. must

times, in order to make every thought
every expression easily understood by the
reader And Tolstoi always practced
what he preached!
books was rewritten many times; and
that is. perhaps. the reason that the style
in every one of them is SO clear, so sim
pie and SO digestible for our spiritual
stomachs, even when Tolstoi treated the
most serious subjects. In one of our con-
versations Tolsto told me that he took
Hebrew lessons in order TO be able TO
read the Bible in the original
And when | asked his opinion about the
people who gave the Bible to the world
he repeated his words which he used in
one of his letters to me: The Jewish
question is not to be separated from that
of other nations; they-the Jews-should
not be too religious, rather more liberal.
Nations who are liberal have no masters.
no slaves. They are all equal. The Jew
ish nation is inclined toward liberalism
and by this il will conquer. The Jews
have given to the world the Bible and the
prophets. and always preached freedom
and liberalism"
When left Tolstoi l felt a new foun-
tain OF vitality In my veins, new vigor
and new aspirations. seeing among a
throng of moral pigmies at least one real
giant. whose life Is devoted to justice and
truth, to the unfortunate and the needy.

at present indefinite. Just before Mr..
Moore left for the west he painted a num-
ber OF very charming little marines in the
spirit of the one shown in the Society
of Washington Artists recent exhibition.
THE sculptor Chodzinski, it is reported.
! has completed the plaster model of
the statue of Pulaski which is to be cast
in bronze and erected in this city on the
reservation at the intersection of Penn
sylvania avenue and 18th street.
WITHIN the past fortnight two more
" statues have been added to this
city's already large quota of memori-
als-one a portrait statue of Longfel-
low. the other of Witherspoon. Both have
been erected by private subscription and
are the work of William A. Couper, sculp-
tor. That they both perpetuate the men,
ory of heroes of peace makes them an
innovation also of peculiar interest. In
reference to the Longfellow statue the
Outlook says. 1t is a matter of great
satisfaction that American literature has

of congratulation that a great educator.
patriot and statesman has been similarly
honored. From the standpoint OF art
something has been gained. but not a
great deal. These statues are good. but
not remarkable. Aside from their subject
i've interest they would not be considered
of note. But SO long as the world per-
sists in memorfalizing a mans face and
figure rather than his work this will be
the result. for it takes a great genius to
make a portrait statue intrinsically a
work OF art.
Commissioner Macfarland struck the
keynote In his address at the unveiling
of the Witherspoon statue Thursday aft
ernoon when he said that what we want
is more memorial fountains and things OF
that sort-works which will serve to COM
memorate noble. useful life and at the
same time add something definitely to
ing the city while uplifting civic life

had. Indeed, such II Is thought the pro-

His admirers, of course. will repeat
the exclamation of the French writer
Flaubert as he read some of Tolstofs

which Turgenef presented them to the
