PROTECTION FOR YOUTH

In police court this morning a girl paroled
from the Industrial school and man of this
city were brought before the court charged with
a statutory crime. The charge, stripped of le-
gal verbiage, is that they have been guilty of
gross immortality, aud the evidence on which
they we're arrested was that the man had gone
to the private home in which the paroled girl
lived and that the offense in the eyes of the law
was there committed. The girl is fifteen years
old
The case is before the court, the evidence not
yet taken, and the Star Bulletin does not wish
to comment on the case for these obvious rea-
sons The case now serves to draw the atten-
ton of thinking men and women to the laws of
Hawaii and their power in preventing inde-
cency and the sway of a libertine's passions.
The last legislature took up certain phases of
, this question and amendments were passed to
the present law relating to assault with intent
to ravish. Serious penalty is provided for those
who assault female under twelve, while abuse
of child under ten is punishable only by death
or life imprisonment The age of fourteen is
the ssage Of consent, although a widespread
opinion seems to prevail that it is twelve The
lnarriageable age is also fourteen for females.
There has been for some time feeling on the
part of men and women of this community di-
rectly concerned with disciplinary, educational
and reform work among boys and girls that
there are not enough safeguards for the moral
ity of youth. That the next legislature will be
asked to make amendments to the present law
is certain One proposed amendment is that the
sage Of consent" should be fixed at sixteen years.
1t is pointed out, however, that the marriage
law would have to be amended also, to provide
that females under the age of sixteen may not
marry, and the very pertinent question then
comes up if the ends of morality would be
served in Hawaii by fixing sixteen as the mini
mum manageable age for females.
Unquestionably if present statutes are inef-
fective it is time to change, and the time to Sc
cure unbiased consideration of the subject is
now, so that the next legislature may be APP
proached on a sure footing. The subject is not
a pleasant one, but it is a public duty to handle
it fearlessly and thoroughly.

For the past three weeks, George
Thayer, the veteran pedestrian who
walked across the Isthmus of Panama
some months ago, has been tramping
over the hills and down in the valleys
of the islands of Maui and Hawaii.
During the entire three weeks, he has
scorned the use of horse or automo-
bile, but tramped necessarily from
the time he left the boat until he
boarded it again.
Tuesday he returned from Maui,
where he made the ascent of Halea-
kala and went over all the trails Of
the surrounding country, covering his

while ON WAY TO
REBUILD HANKOW
Noted Chinese Engineer Here
on Mission to Construct
New City

On his way TO China where he will
take charge of the gigantic work OF
rebuilding the city OF Hankow, de-
stroyed during the revolution, NJ. B.
Yrng a famous Chinese engineer and
his wife are visiting friends in Homo
lulu today.
Yung is returning to China as the
result of cablegram from Cen Ii
Yuen Hung, vice president of the Re-
public instructing him to return and
take up the work OF constructing the
first modern city in the Orient.
Yung is graduate of Yale. class
1898, and of Columbia, class 1901. He
najored in civil engineering at Yale,
and in mining engineering at Colum-
bia. He has been engaged in important
mining and railway building schemes
both in China and Cuba, and was Sc
lected for hfs new position because OF
his eminent success in all his engi-
neering undertakings.
Discusses Project.
In discussing his new project, Yung
said that it was the intention of the
Chinese Government to plan out a
modern city in the place OF the old
Hankow. wiped out of existence by the
fire and pillage of the late rebellion.
The new city will take on the best
features of the larger American cities,
he stated. There will be civic, cent
er, wide boulevard along the river
front, gas and electric plants, modern
sewage system, parks, eac.
Yung pointed out that this will
rake Hankow the first strictly mod
ern city in the Far East and fifty
qualify her to take her proper place
in the commercial and industrial life
OF the Chinese empire. Hankow had.
before the rebellion, a population of
100000 in the city proper and more
than 100000 more in the environs
across the Yang-tse river The largest
ocean steamers ascend to its wharves,
and it is already the terminus Of Tile
Peking- Hankow Railway. the Canton
Hankow Railway, the Hankow-Szes-
huan lines, and a dozen other lines
planned and in course Of construction
will find terminal in this city.
Backed by Dollars.
While Yung was not fully informed
as to the details OF the matters OF fur
nishing funds and material for the
great work ahead of him, it is under
stood that the Robert Dollar Company
of San Francisco will provide the nee
essary capital, amounting to $4,000
900. and that their employees WilI per-
form the work, under the general su-
rervision OF Yung. Captain Robert Dol
lar is to leave for the Orient shortly
and, through the instruction of the
Picking. Government to Yung, the two
will arrive in China about the same
time
An enterprise which has been dis
cussed with the Chinese Goyei nment
by representatives of the American
banking syndicate interested in the
Chinese loans several times during the
last four years is the building of sus-
pension bridge over mile in length
over the Yang-tse river, and Yung said
that this would come about with the
rebuilding of the RACED city.
This would involve an expenditure
of $5,000pO0 more and the whole
scheme is considered to be. the most
important in which American capital
has ever become interested in the
Orient.

TOBE MODEL FOR
JAPAN BRANCHES

Several new branches of the Young
Mems Christian Association in Japan
are to be copied directly after the
local association both from the point
of constitution and articles of incor-
poration as the result of a journey
made through here a year ago by G..
D. Fisher, national secretary for
Japan.
When the Y. M. C. A. official passed
through here he paid visit to the
new building, then just completed, and
after looking over the plant and read
ing the constitution, bylaws and
articles of incorporation, he declared
that the Honolulu association was a
model one both from the standpoint
of organization and equipment
4 When the last steamer arrived
from the Orient, it bore letter from
Fisher asking that copies of the by
laws, constitution and articles off in
corporation be forwarded him as he
desired to use them for several new
branches of the Association then be-
ing projected.
The new buildings are the result of
