GENTLE CYN|C'S MUSINGS

From the New York Times:
BE sure you are right. and then
go ahead. but don't tear up your
return ticket.
Every time a man makes good
resolution he feels that it is the
hest he ever broke.
Only an optimist can suffer from
insomnia and feel glal it isn't a
tooth ache that is keeping him
awake.
One way to make a small boy
wash his hands is to lie. him blow
soap bubbles.
Most women are eager for the
latest wrinkle, and yet they go to
a beauty specialist to have it re-
moved.
"Pay as yon go" is a good
motto, and in the case of the bore
we are often willing to lend him
the money TO get away.
1t is difficult to make trouble
for others without having some
left over for yourself.
A WOman's age really doesn't
m after so much as how long she
has been that age.

RAILROAD BUILDING

The statistical abstract of the
United States, the thirty-third
annual volume, has just been
issued by the Department Of Com
mcrce ard L!bor. and shows,
among other interesting things,
the wonerful development of rail-
road building in the country.
From 10000 miles operated in
1860 the vast system had extended
to 100000 miles in 1910. The
value of farm property for 1900,
the last year for which complete
statistics are available, was over
5000. 600, 900 and has undoubtedly
greatly increased in the last
decade. The wealth produced on
farms shows a growth from $751;
600, 100000 IN 1900 to $9,OO0,-
100000 last year. The figures
showing exports and imports are
almost invinciblc in magnitude.
Imports nave grown from $685..
100000 on 1880 to $l,557. 0O0,-
600. 900 in 1910. while our exports
show an increase from 1888, 600,
0G0 to $l,745. 900, 900 in the same
period.

DID NOT WANT
TO MURDER HER
.Kehio Fukamoto Only Wanted to
Punish Woman, Who Was
His Cousin.

Coroner's inquests have been held
over the remains of both Masu Yoshida,
the woman murdered last week in Ma
noa Valley, and Kehio Fukamoto, the
murderer, the verdict in the first in
stance being death from hemorrhage
due to multiple wounds and shock in
ficted by Fukumoto. The latter, who
died Saturday night, was declared a
suicide.
The afternoon of the day he died,
Fukamoto gave long statement to
Deputy Sheriff Rose, embracing his
reasons for killing the woman and also
the manner in which ne had done it.
He stated in the first place that he
did not go to the Baldwin home with
the intention of killing her, but only
to punish her and after he had inflicted
enough punishment, he stated, he com
mitted suicide.
1t seems from other sources that he
was the woman's cousin. Masu came
here some time ago, but her first hus-
band died shortly after arriving and
she went to Lihue where she lived with
a Japanese vegetable grower named
Myura.
After separating from him she came
back to Honolulu and was working for
various families Fukamoto's first wife
had died in the meanwhile and he lived
for two years with his cousin who fin
ally left him on account of his drink,
ing habits and because he always want.
ed money.
He stated to Rose that he wanted to
"punish" her for not lending him
ninety dollars that he wanted. Accord.
ing to his story of the crime, he walked
into the Baldwin laundry behind the
woman, and telling her that he was
going to punish her, struck her with the
cane knife, laying open her face. On
the second blow she fell to the ground,
but arose and ran out, to be followed
and afterwards stabbed to death. Flu.
kamOto stated that he did not want to
kill her if he had, he could have
done it with one blow of the dagger.
As it was she only had twenty six
wounds.

COUNTESS EAzUKO
DIES IN JAPAN
Sister Of Grown Princess and
Wife Of Head Of Powerful
Church.
(From Mondays Advertiser J

News reached Honolulu yesterday in
the form Of a cablegram from Toxic
which informed the japanese residents
Of the death Of the Countess Kazuko,
sister of the wife of the Crown Prince
Of Japan, and the wife of Count otani,
formerly the head of the West Hong
wanii Buddhists, and one Of the most
potential figures in Japanese religious
life.
The Hawaii Shinpo got out extras in
the form of placards yesterday after.
noon announcing the news, which was
the first intimation which the japanese
of the city had of the countess death,
which occurred on the 27th.
Private services were at once held in
the Hongwanji mission temple on Fort
street and formal services will be held
later, probably on the day when the
state funeral takes place in Japan,
which will be on the second of Feb.
ruary.
Countess Kazuko has been active in
the religious life of the island empire
and was, besides her position in the
church, at the head of number OF
benevolent societies. She was highly
educated and a great traveller, having
accompanied Count Otani on many OF
his travels and having completed a tour
around the world few months before
her death. She was ailing a month
previous to her death.
The death Of Countess Kazuko was
preceded by the retirement of her has.

PLAN MANY AFFAIRS
FOR CARNIVAL WEEK
Mid-PaCific Kirmess Will Start
the Ball RoIIing-What
Is in Sight.

Carnival Week in Honolulu this yeai
promises to be more filed with the real
carnival spirit than any similar event
in the history of Honolulu-though per.
haps it is mistake to say any similar
event, for nothing to compare with the
proceedings planned for next month
has ever occurred here.
The events will appeal, not only to
tourists, but to all classes of the local
social body. The plan to hold Kir.
mess on the eighteenth was most for.
tunate idea, for it win add greatly to
the gaiety of the week and will bring
into active participation in events
many who otherwise might have been
merely lookers-on.
The Mid-Pacifc Kirmess win start
the ball rolling. 1t is to be held at the
old fishmarket on February Is and will
formally open carnival week. The Kir-
mess will be not only "society"
event but will appeal to all classes Of
people and to all nationalities in Homo
lulu. Fourteen booths, representing as
many nations, all of which have their
representatives in the city will line
the street Of the nations.
1t was the original intention to have
only thirteen, taking chance on the
unlucky number, but Mrs. Cooper came
to the rescue with proposition to in
stall q Hungarian booth and have II
Hungarian dance Her proposition was
gladly accepted by the general COM
mittee of the Kirmess and Mrs. Cooper
is now training six young men and an
equal number of young ladies in the
intricacies of the national dance of her
country-for she is a Hungarian her
self and glad of it.
| Never before have the prominent
women of Honolulu gotten together so
enthusiastically on any project. Not

than to justify their original expecta.

SaIaried Probation officer Now
Necessity to Handle All
the Cases.
lFrom saturday,s Advertiser. }


The first report for full years work
yet made by the juvenile court is now
receiving consideration from Governor
Frear, having been submitted to him
by Chief Justice Hartwell of the SUI
preme court, to whom the letter was
addressed. Judge Whitney of the
Juvenile court, who has practically ere
ated this institution, being the first
magistrate to handle juvenile cases
under the juvenile act, and who has
devised and Estematized a complete
system in connection with it, has made
several important recommendations
which win probably find their way into
the appropriation bill when it is pre-
scented to the legislature.
Prominent among the recommends
tions is the creation of an Office for a
probation officer, who would undertake
the regular work of the court under a
salary, and who would increase the
courts efficiency to great degree. An
appropriation to place dependent chill
dren in private homes is also requested.

The Letter.

Judge Whitney's letter, in full, is as
follows, the table having been omitted
as the text is self explanatory;
GAS has been the custom for some
years past, beg herewith to hand you
special report of this court as to juve-
nile cases handled during the year 1910.
''The report of this year is of par
ticular interest from the fact that it
is the first full year under the Juvenile
Court Act of 1909. The tables here
with appended will show that this court
handled during the year 3s1 delinquent
cases and AZ dependent cases, or a
total of 42S cases. This number of
cases exceeds by 80 the number of juve-
nile cases tried the four years prior to
the passage of the present act and I'M
der the juvenile act of 1905. We do
not understand that this indicates that
delinquency among juveniles is increas-
ing in the community, but that the
court is becoming more effective in
handling cases arising.
The Hawaiian gazette. [volume] (Honolulu [Oahu, Hawaii]) 1865-1918, 1911-01-31
First ofenses.

"From another table it will appear
that of the 3Sl delinquent cases 290
were first ocenses and 81 cases have
been before some court on previous oc-
casions. This would seem to indicate
that methods previously used, and per-
haps those at present in use, were not
altogether effective in completely re-
forming the delinquent. The effort of
this court should be to decrease the
number appearing after the first offense.
"From another table it will appear
! that the court has handled forty-seven
dependent cases, and that of such forty
seven private homes were found for
thirty-eight. Special efforts have been
made by the court in each of the de-
pendent cases to find some private home
for the dependent rather than to create
of him a public charge-a thing good
neither for the individual nor for the
public, and the court is gratifed at the
success of its efforts in that regard, a
success due primarily to the generosity
and benevOlence of this community.
