.KAIMUKI MAN ANSWERS ]. 4. SCHNACE

Editor, Hawaiian STAR" Your let
ter as published in your issue Of this
evening, and signed as if written by
81. H. Schnack" is, to a Kaimukian,
but evidence of the truth of the bibli-
cal injunction TASK and We shall re-
Ceive." The 'hoggishness" of which
genial Schnack complains is, presum-
ably, an expression of crocodile regret
that his section of Honolulu has not
had large look in for improvements;
but, at very recent meeting Of the
County Supervisors the Kamehameha
neighborhood was voted funds for pub
lie works; the reservoir he speaks
about was built years ago and, them
seemed sufficient for the Districts
needs. The reason that Kaimuki gets
some Of the public improvements,
which it's Importance and population
(has Schnack been able to travel east
of Fort Street, and recently see Waia-
lac distTict?) deserve and imperatively
needs, is because Of the concerted eff
forts of its residents and property
owners; that its Improvement club
exerts proper influence, is shown by
results achieved. The Schnack dis
trict seems, unfortunately, to be un.
able to grasp the utility of the bundle
of sticks. If 81. H." can organize and
spouts as well as he seems to write.

critical period of his life. It is true
that Cosima Wagner is yet living at
Baireuth and that we might expect
this fact to put an effectual obstacle
in the way of publication of the
memoirs if they contained any refer
ence to the separation Of the Won
Bulows.
But this is just one of the things
about which no one can be sure till
the book is made public, for the ex-
traordinary vanity of Wagner and the
still more extraordinary view of him
taken by his family renders it entirely
within the possibilities that the in
mates of the Villa Wahnfried might
regard it as of the gravest Importance
that the masters explanation of the
events of the early sixties should be
given to the world.
1t is hardly likely that the autobiog-
raphy will throw any new light upon
the famous friendship between Wag-

yet it might easily do so, for this at
fair has never been thoroughly illum.
ined. We have abundant literature on
the subject, and above all we possess
in the correspondence between the
composer and Mrs. Wesendonck, one
OF the most beautiful and touching OF
human documents. But nevertheless
there are matters which remain unex-
planned. The self-consti4uted advocates
of Wagner, such as w. Ashton Ellis,
appear to regard it as their solemn
duty not to tell merely the cold facts,
however, unpleasant they may be, but
to make out a case for the composer
at all costs. He speaks of Wagner
and the two Wesendoncks as vessels
of silver against which the poor earth
en- jar Minna, Wagner's first wife,
shattered herself. He refers to the
painful scenes which must have been
enacted on the hearth of the Wesen-
donck home, and almost morbidly de-
clines to imagine their precise nature.

analysis Of his own the last time he
was here and came to the same con.
clusion,
e. A. EAMES-We can get along
without the troops at Wahiawa, but
sending them to a city block would be
an outrage on the enlisted man and an
injustice to Honolulu. Why not try
and trade the armory lot for a lot of
tie Kewalo beach front and put the
troops there
CHARLES II. CARTER-In my opin.
ion the more troops that are located in
or near the city the better. 1t will
give the men and officers a better
chance to spend their money than
would be the case were they quartered
away from the city, and to spend it
more advantageously and among a
larger circle of business enterprises.
c. S. DESKY-I am one of the
strongest believers in town of using
buttermilk for a daily drink. Mr..
Damon is another. One of the editors
in Honolulu says he couldn't be heal
thy without buttermilk. All the soda
fountains have the tablet make brand
Of it on tap and Uncle Patrick McIn-
erny once in a while starts run on

e. A. MOTT-SMITH-The japanese

would think nQthing of catching a
dozen or more fair-sized paul in an
afternoon. Nowadays a fellow is lucky
If he gets one. The trouble is that

LEWIS CORYELL NJ. D.-I am a

is anything more deadly than a mix

The volcano is boiling and spouting
but nobody is there to see. We never

LINK McCANDLESS-Did you ever
see such a change? Men who a year
ago We're staunch republicans are to-
day clamoring for a seat in the Demo
cratic band-wagon.
EDITOR AFFONSO-Waits are too
long at the Portuguese window of the
postofiice. A good man has been post
ed there but he has too much to dc
in other parts of the building.
w. L. HOPPER-The Kings Daugh
tiers have no endowment. Their house
is full of people who have to be fed
and cared for but their only resources
are what little help can be picked up.
FRANK S. POTTER should think
that an up-to-date city like Honolulu
could dispose of it's stray dogs in a
less barbarous way than by shooting
them, a lethal chamber, for instance.
