nese circles.
Questions of citizenship, of individu-
al rights and legal power to name a
penalty were all suLordinated at a spe
cial meeting of the society Thursday to
the one fact that Mr.. Date had APP
parently with malice aforethought
failed in the respect due to the memory
of his Emperor by absenting himself
from the memorial meeting.
Word of the action by their society
brothers in Maui was received in
Honolulu yesterday and it is under
stood that while no official action will
ee taken by the central japanese So
ciety, it might be Just as well for Mr..
Date to heed the warning which has
been given him. Incidentally it is
dSseTleu IN local circles Unat Mr.. Date
has been none too popular in Maui. He
was formerly manager of the Formosa
Store there, but recently opened a
place of his own. His trade rivals, it
is believed, may have had hand in
the decree.
There has been number of memoir
ial services held in this and other
islands in honor of the imperial dead
but only in Kahului has any such de-
cisive action been taken in regard to
non attendance by society members. A
Unknown japanese in Honolulu stat
ed yesterday that few, if any, well in.
formed japanese would he in sympathy
with such action as decree of Danish

circumstances, and seemed to think the

action.

RATS SECURED
TEN WERE DELIVERED TO THE
STATE BAcTERIoLoeIsT YES
TERDAY, BUT ALL WERE FROM
THE oUTSKIRs OF THE CITY.

Although ten rats were delivered to
the city hall yesterday, none of them
were from the neighborhood of the
waterfront, or even from the down
town district.
1t has now been a week or more
since any rats at all were delivered
from the waterfront and of the total
number examined to date only a very
few have come from this locality. As
a result, those carrying on the cam
paign to exterminate the rodents are
becoming very much discouraged.
DR.. Mills, of the state meteorological
laboratory, said yesterday afternoon
that, although he was glad to see the
rats being exterminated in other parts
Of the city, It was a mere waste Of
time to be examining those from the
outskirts for traces of buconic plague.
