Idleness is crime against both heaven
and earth, a sin against God and man.
And the idle opulent are worse than the
idle INDECENT. An ignorant tramp, beg
ging bread at our doors, is more excus-
able than a modish vagabond who feasts
and fattens on the fruit of the toll of
others.
Our opulent idlers sometimes undertake
to excuse themselves by saying that they
make lucrative work for the laboring
classes by the costly Injuries which they
indulge in their Incidence. But does it
make no difference what sort of work
they make for others? Here, for exam
pie, is a disreputable dancer brought
from Portugal to the United States and
paid 5000 night to dance before our
fashionable idlers.-our modern Herods
and Herodiases. Is 1t nothing to become
accessory to the crime Of wasting a hui
man life on dancing career? Ten thou
said strolling players also are now start
ing on their autumn rounds of playing
for the diversion OF our opulent idlers;
is ii nothing to squander hun
dreds of thousands of dollars to keep
this army of trihers on the march,
One of the worst features in the evil
lives of our opulent idlers is that while
wasting their own lives, they do also
waste many thousands of other lives
which they employ for the qualification
OF their vanities and lusts.
Let US put all our idlers under the
ban of a stern public opinion. The able
bodied vagabonds who ask aims at our
doors should be put in the work-house,
and they deserve neither more nor less
than the modishly attired idlers who
languish in drawing-rooms and shipper
in lighthouses. They are all of class,
and If they were all to die at once, they
xvo,ld dron indiscrfYnina tely into a COM
mon perdition, where sinful want and
sinful wealth meet the same doom. Since
by the impartial standards of divine jus
tice they must be classified together, in
eternity, why should we separate them in
time? The public opinion of earth should
conform to the MEMORABLE righteousness
of heaven.

HEROINE OF
AEON WRECK
Naval Officers Wife, Passing
Through Honolulu, MarOOned
on Pacific Isle.

Lieutenant Riddle, United States
Navy, who has been stationed at Pago
Page for the past two years aboard the
station ship Annapolis, passed through
Honolulu yesterday on the Mariana en-
route to the mainland. He was accom-
panied by his wife, one of the heroines
of the wreck of the British steamship
Aeon, which went to pieces on Christ
mas Island in the latter part of 1908.
Mrs. Riddle and other naval passen-
gers boarded the Aeon at San Fran
cisco. The Aeon has no register for
carrying passengers, so Mrs. Riddle
became for the time being steward
ess, and others went on the books in
other capacities. The steamer left San
Francisco on July and was not heard
from for two months. Then vessels
went in search of her. The United
States ship SOlace was detached from
the Pacific feet at Samoa and sent to
Christmas Island where the passengers
and crew were found marooned. They
were marooned for nearly two months
They suffered many privations, but
none was serious. Mrs. Riddle show
ed herself to be a true, brave American
woman.
Lieutenant Riddle states that many
Improvements are under way at Page
Page. Cottages are being built ashore
for the, officers Roads and bridges
are being given considerable attention.
He states that Captain Parker, U. s.
N, Governor of American Samoa, ex-
poets to be relieved shortly.
When the officer passed the Island
of Savaii, one of the Samoan group,
a great steam cloud hung like ghostly
vision over the shore. This was pro
duced by the hot lava pouring down
the mountain sides from an active vol
cano, into the sea. The volcano has
been in eruption for about five years
and the streams of lava are uninter-
rupted. The sight of the flowing lava
by night is wonderful

When Captain Hugh Rodman, U. s.

as captain of the yard and master of

ago ne compiled valuable set of sail
ing directions for the Hawaiian Is
lands which were published and issued
by the navy department. The sailing
directions were complete in every re-
spect and were regarded by mariners
as the best ever published. Captain

Ensign Kenneth Whiting, U. s. N,
who, few months ago, gained for him
self an international reputation by an
exploit with submarine torpedoboat,
is spending few days in Honolulu,
having arrived yesterday as a passen-
ger on the cruiser Cleveland from Ma
Mia.
Ensign Whiting risked his life-and
the risk was great-to prove his own
theory that a man could escape from
a sinking, or sunken, submarine. He
was in command of the submarine
Shark in Manila Bay. Experience with
submarines led him to believe that a
man could go down in one the little
iron terrors and, when it failed to rise
to the surface, throw open the torpedo
tubes and escape.
His seniors in years and experience
hooted at the idea of a man taking
so great a risk in trying to do some
thing that had never been attempted
before. Many Of his superiors derided
him when he proposed to test his the
DRY. But Whiting was determined to
make good.
The young officer got the consent Of
the navy department to sink the Shark
there at MaLila. 1t was known that
with little effort and expense the sub
marine could be raised, consequently
there was little opposition to Writings
plan.

rived there was large number of big

paper contributed to the Popular
Science Monthly for June by DR..
Thomas W. Salmon, Passed Assistant
Surgeon, U. S. Public Health and Ma.
rine Hospital Service, on "Two Pre-
ventable Causes of Insanity" In part,
he writes;
'Turning to the cases we have Sc.
lected to examine for preventahlo
causes, we find that there were very
large number of patients in whom alec
holic intemperance was the cause of
their mental disease. There is no sub
ject which needs to be discussed with
so much conservation or with such scru-
pulous regard for accuracy as the eff
fects of alcohol So much in the rela.
ton of alcohol to social and bodily ills
is the subject of bitter controversy
and SO much may be done q cause by
careless or ambiguous statemen ts that
seems desirable to define very pre-
clsely what we mean when we speak Of
alcohol as a cause of mental disease.
! Alcohol has been assigned as the cause,
directly OF indirectly, of more than one
half the admissions to hospitals for
the insane by Kraepelin Of Mnnich, a
very great leader in psychiatry and
perhaps the foremost IN Europe in the
cause of temperance. In order to re-
main upon unassailable ground in this
important matter, we will consider sep
arately those cases in which alcohol is
directly responsible and those in which
it was controlling and probably the
only cause So the facts relating to
which to name the disease is to give
the cause, will be presented first. In
one series of 1901 first admissions there
were 63s such cases, or about ~ per
cent of all.
Sex and Environment
"There We're together, then, 664
cases of general paralysis depending
upon syphilis) and 63s cases of the
alcoholic psychoses (all due to intern
perance) or more than one-fourth of
all admissions due to these two pre-
ventable causes. Before considering
any measures of prevention, it is desir-
able to examine little in detail these
1902 cases, because there are some mat
tiers of sex and environment which are
particularly significant. 1t is seen in
smaller chart that, as would have been
supposed, both these causes affected
men to much greater extent than
women. A factor which bears directly
upon preventive measures is shown in
the larger chart, which indicates the
residence, as rural and urban,
of patients admitted with general
paralysis and of those with alcoholic
psychoses. It is seen that in the case
of male. admissions environment did
not have very marked influence upon
the prevalence of the alcoholic
psychoses, but that the percentage of
cases of general paralysis in men was
nearly three times as great in the ad-
missions from cities as in those from
the country. For women, this chart
was twice that from rural communi-
ties, but that the percentage of admis-
sions with alcoholic psychoses was sew
en- times as great for cities as from
rural communities. This is eloquent
testimony to the influence exerted by

naval officers to witness what they be-
lieved to be a piece of sheer foolhardi-
ness.
Whiting crawled into the boat, shut
the matches and lowered it. Down he
went, and when the craft reached the
bottom, rs feet from the surface, Whit.
ing went to one of the torpedo tubes
and removed the cap. The water gush-
ed in. The pressure at the depth is
great, and the only means of escape
was by the method the ensign had de.
vised.
Taking hold of the mouth of the
tube he quickly crawled out of the
sunken craft. While all this was going
on, a crowd of extremely anxious peo-
pie watched the surface of the water.
They were wondering whether the young
man would rise or not. Some shook
their heads in utter dismay, for they
had had no hope for him at the start.
There was a bubble or two and sput-
ter, then the head Of the daring
youngster protruded above the water.
Some cheered. Some caught their
breath. Others just simply stared, over
come by wonderment.
The story of Writings experiment
was flashed all over the world, and lay
men as well as trained mariners sat up
and wodered, as they did when HobsOn
and his associates faced the Spanish
batteries in front Of Santiago as they
ran the old Merrimac into the narrow
channel and sunk her in an effort to
coop up the hostile fleet.
Young Writings exploit will be dis.

stories are forgotten.

MOTT-sMITH OPENS
PRECINCT PACKAGES

The ballot packages of the second
and sixth districts, representing West
Hawaii and Kauai, were opened by Act
ing Governor and Secretary MOtt-Smith
yesterday at the archives building in
the presence of Justice De Bolt. This
was done in order to obtain copies OF
the precinct registers for those dis
triets.
The law requires that the election
inspectors be furnished with copies of
tho precinct register, one of which is
supposed to be preserved for future
use But in the second district at the
last election the inspectors sealed up
all three copies in the pack, instead Of
sending one to the secretary as is re
quired by law.
In the sixth district there was some
time ago a special election FOR county
auditor and the same registry of voters
was used that was used in the regular
election. The secretary had to send
them his copy of the precinct register
for the purpose, and instead of return
ing it, they put 1t in the bag and sealed
1t up,
Yesterday morning Link McCandless
and II j. Ryan called on Mr.. Mott.
Smith and made two objections to the
proposed method of taking the plebs
cite vote. They objected to the names
Of the precinct vote being numbered,
and although he is unable 10 sec the
reason for the objection, no will give
IN, just TO keep peace In tho family.
Ryan objected 10 the regulation that
each voter BIO required himself 20 siga
the precinct voting list, aud, although
the secretary says he ean see no good
reason for the objection, he Is willing
10 give Ia on that pOint also.
