A BISHOP AND A TRAMP.
Bishop Talbot Turns the Tables on
Begging Tramp.

People of Bloomsbury, especially
Episcopalians, will be interes ted in
this story printed in E9e,yb0dy'S
Magazine concerning Bishop Ethel
bert Talbot, who presided over the
Central Pennsylvania diocese of the
Episcopal church before it was di-
vided into the Diocese of Harris
burg and Bethlehem, as the distin-
guished churchman made frequent
visits here:
"Once, while Bishop Talbot. the
giant cowboy bishop, was attending
meeting of church dignitaries in
St. Paul, tramp accosted a group
of churchmen in the hotel porch
and ask for aid.
No. one of them told him,
Pm afraid we can't help you. But
you see that big man over there p
pointing to Bishop Talbot. Well,
he's the youngest bishop of us all,
and he's very generous man. You
might try him.
Inc tramp approached Bishop
Talbot confidently. The others
watched with interest. They saw
a look of surprise come over the
tramp's face. The bishop was talk
ing eagerly. The tramp looked
troubled. And then, finally they
saw something pass from one hand
to the other. The tramp tried to
stink past the group without speak
ing, bur one of them called to him:
Well, did you get something
from our younger brother?'
The tramp grinned sheepishly.
No. he admitted, 4 gave him a
dollar for his blamed new cathedral
at Laramie p'

THE ROSEMONT CEMETERY.

There is still in the minds of
some persons, an idea that the cem-
etery is playground for any per-
sons who desire to roam through it,
breaking off limbs of the trees and
shrubbery planted therein. The
following Act of Assembly will
teach such persons to be more care
full, as the Act will be enforced. 1t
was passed the second day of April
A. ID 1858:
THAT all laws of this Common
meath now in existence protecting
the grounds of any cemetery from
trespass, or the tombstones or mon
uments, ratings or fences, from
mutilation or injury, shall oe and
the same hereby are extended to
the Cemetery Company here incor-
porated."

THE AFTERNOON SESSIONS

pr cent, Hawaiians showed a decrease;
they were being crowded out.
Kaleiopu stated tnat ne was unquali
fiedly opposed to the immigration mea-
sure, and moved to Indefinitely post
pone, urging the Hawaiian members to
back him up.
Kamahu declared that today Japa-
nese were leaving the plantations be-
cause they were not receiving decent
wages. Spaniards, who had been
brought here, were leaving the planta-
lions because they were not receiving
fair wages The best people to be
employed here should be Americans. If
we were to have American conditions
here, why not give Americans a chance
to work for the plantations at good
wages. There were plenty of Ameri-
can citizens here willing to work on
the plantations If they were to receive
living wages.
There were often citizens idle on the
waterfront while Japanese did steve
dores work on the railway wharves.
The introductions of more aliens, from
Europe or elsewhere, would crowd
Hawaiians, American citizens, help
less, to the wall to be crushed by i'm
ported cheap labor competition.
Shingle showed that the Japanese
plantation laborers were gradually but
surely leaving the Territory and Jap
anese immigration was amounting to
nothing. If the labor situation SHOULD
become such as to paralize the planta-
tions there would arise a most serious
situation wherein business would be
dead and every individual would suffer
for money or employment. Now the
proposed law would bring forth money
practically from the sugar men to pay
for immigration; money would come
from source never so drawn upon
before.
Single agreed that the planters
ought to employ more citizens thar
they do in skilled labor; they should
put citizens innstead of japanese ant
other aliens on the locomotives; bu
it was nonsense to suppose that Ha
waiians or other Americans here, WHIT
might be idle would go to work in tn
plantation fields and hapai cane TO
they never had, nor they never would

THE HOUSE
NINETEENTH DAY.
Afternoon Session.

AS reported in yesterdays Star, sec
ond edition, the aye and no vote then
being given, the administration i'm
migration tax bill was passed in the
House on thiru reading, 10 to IL after
a debate that took up some time in the
morning and most of the afternoon
session.
At noon yesterday there was very
grave doubt if the bill would pass, for
the vote stood then, as was ascertained
by careful ballot Of those interested,
at fifteen to fifteen. A representative
of the Star was told by more than one
member that that particular member
particular member changed his mind
before the vote came and voted for the
measure, so it is to be presumed that
the god arguments of Single, Rice
and Castro won the day for the bill.
Kaleiopu's action, though he voted
against it, certainly helped to pass the
bill, as was admitted afterwards by
| certain members, above referred to,
who declared that Kaleiopus attack
convinced them of the good points OF
the bill. Kaleiopu had said in the
beginning that he was not against the
bill and he actually warned the
members, to use his own word warn
ed" that if immediate action was
insisted on the bill would be killed. He
gave the House to understand that he
was in favor of the bill, that ne was
guarding it from defeat, and then did
his best to defeat it in vain.
Before the immigration tax measure
was taken up in the afternoon session
having been deferred from the morn
ing, the consideration of Senate amend
ments to House Bill IS, on Sheldon 5
motion, was postponed. The amend
ments seek to put out of Office all dis
trict magistrates VINO are not licensed
practitioners.
Then came the wind-up on the i'm
migration tax proposition.
Kaleiopu started the discussion il
the afternoon session. He doubted
in the first place, if this taxation coulC
be enforced, if the bill became law. l
was the salaried man who had to ben
the brunt of the income tax, anyway
for it could easily be ascertained how
much he was getting, whereas corpor
ations could readily have it appea
I.N l. q
over to expenses to pay any tax.
Kaleiopu attacked the law general
#. ly, whereas, on previous occasions h
had stated he was not opposing tn
: measure. He declared there was moth
ing in the proposed law to show tina
laborers would be brought from Europ
alone; they might be brought froI
anywhere. How was this law goin
to benefit the laboring class in thl
Territory? Why was it that the pre-
moters of this bill had not deligentl
made inquiry whether or not theI
were laborers here willing to work
the plantations if they were paid de
cent wages. The idea Of the pants
tons was to make a hundred per cel
profit, hence the move for cheap labC
through such a bill as this, seeking
introduce pauper labor from Europe
r from any other country. Immigrant
meant an increase of children in Il
already crowded schools, to the detr
ment of people already here. Statisti
I'd showed an increase of siXty-eight p
cent in the public school attendan
a. here of Japanese children; Portugue
thirteen per cent, and Chinese twel
