country Of the amount of looting
done by the soldiers showed that
they took advantage Of the un-
usual opportunities afforded them
to despoil churches and religious
houses Of their richest possessions.
1t was plain case of unjustifiable
plundering and stealing.
It goes without saying that
these reports were contradicted;
but the rumors could not be stilled
entirely. The defenders of the
American soldiers honor pro-
tested vehemently against the bare
suspicion that our boys would
even think of such a thing as loot
ing. Perish the thought; wither
the tongue that would give ex-
preston to it! However, in spite
of all that could be done and said
in defence of our soldiers,
credence was given to these re-
ports in many parts Of this coun-
try. And, in truth, there was
not wanting foundation for such
a belief. Since the war the
knowledge that valuable articles
from the dismantled and burned
churches have been disposed of
by their possessors has constrained
a great many American citizens to
believe that the soldiers were not
as immaculate as their defenders
declared them to be.
We have in our possession a
letter written during the past
week in behalf Of all ex-soldier
who offers for sale what is called
"a F'riar's robe taken from
church near Manila before the
church was burned. " That there
may be no doubt about the char
acter Of this "robe' a postal pic
ture is enclosed containing the
photograph Of richly-orna-
mented cope and mitre. The price
asked for this "F'riar's robe' is
two hundred and fifty dollars. To
show how reasonable this figure
is for such a vestment the letter
states that this robe is trimmed
in gold and it was said that it cost
new about five hundred dollars.
It is evidently very old as the silk
holding the gold embroidery is
worn thread-bare in places. " The
reason for selling is also stated
"this ex-soldier is in hard fnan-
cial straits" and wants to realize
on the valuable relic in his possess
sion.
It seems never to have occurred
to this American ex-soldier, or to
the one who writes in his behalf,
that it was bad enough to have
stolen goods in his possession,
even if he did not steal them him
self (Which the letter would seem
to IMPLY without trying to dis
pose Of them to others. Both are
offences against the law Of the
land; but, evidently, he sees moth
ing wrong in the transaction
which goes to prove how blunted
ones moral sensibilities and how
distorted ones notions of right
and wrong may become under GER
tain circumstances.
The cope and mitre were, as the
letter states, stolen from a church
near Manila. Therefore, the ex-
soldier has no shadow Of a right
to them; neither is he justified in
selling them. It is not likely,
however, that he will find a pur-
chaser except it be a museum or
a collector of antiques who asks
no questions provided he gets a
good bargain. We suggest that
this ex-soldier correspond with the
Archbishop Of Manila with a view
to restoring these stolen articles
to their rightful owners. He owes
it to himself and to the flag under
which he served to make restitu-
ton.

preliminaries. Since then S10,500 had
been incurred on contract for de-
livering rock on section two. Total
expenditures were S17300. There was
a balance on hand of S1S2,700 and de-
Quoting from this $176,49S, the sum
of the lowest bids for the two Sec
tions, balance of $e2O2 was left for
engineering and inspection costs.
Petrie moved that the contract for
the second section be awarded to the
Lord-Young Engineering Co. Second
ed by 'Marston Campbell.
Fern did not think this fair. Will
son should first be awarded the con-
tract for the first section. He moved
that this be done,
Campbell withdrew his second of
Petrie's motion, saying no discrimin-
alton was intended.
Fern argued that the fund for en-
gineering was insufficient for both,
and preference should be given 20
the first section.
Petrie said the work could be cut
down on either contract to provide for
deficiency Adams agreed with
this.
Fern then changed his motion TO
one that the contract for each section
be awarded to the lowest bidder.
He waited n vain for seconder and
then said he did not see why the
board should delay. 1T is one Of the
fairest of propositions" said he. Eve

as checks.
The spray was next applied to the
trees and proved very effectual as ,,n
exterminator. Although the appara-
trY was not high enough to enable
the sprayers to reach the tops of the
mango trees, yet Mr.. Weinland thinks
that is not of much consequence, as
they can be kept from spreading.
"While I do not think that this will
kill off all the Mediterranean flies"
said the entomologist, while discuss
ing the new spray, "yet it no doubt
will prove effectual in keeping the

HitClCOCk'S
Art Exhibit

The rooms of the Kilohana Art
League were thronged last night by
art enthusiasts assembled for a priv
ate view of collection of twenty
seven paintings from the brush of D.
Howard Hitchcock which will be plac-
ed on public exhibition beginning this
evening for one week.
The canvasses exhibited are for the
most part representative Of the toll
of the painter for the past few months
and the majority of them merited the
praise which was unstintingly bestow-
ed. They show hat Mr.. HITCHCOCK
has succeeded in absorbing the Hawai-.
ian color and reproducing 1t on canvas
more successfully than any other art
ist. One is also able to see the steady
improvement in his work and the fact
that his forte is marine and shore
views. With figures he leaves some.

Mr.. Hitchcock has plainly come into
his own here as he has abroad. Many
of the canvases exhibited last night
have already been sold, one collector

chased by residents of the city, ap'

Later developments seem to indicate
similar conditions of the fruit in lao
Valley, in the yards of Mrs. Enos in
Wailulu and Judge w. Kalua; at Ke-
aeae and at Kipahulu, though in these
latter places the actual fly has not
been found. Strenuous efforts are be-
ing made in all the places infected
to destroy all the flies that can be
caught. The method used is the pan
of kerosene oil, which is protected
from the rain by a cover held just far
enough above the first pan to allow
plenty of room for the fly to be at
tracted to the oil. Rumors have it
that no more fruit of any description
can be sold by the venders in open
market in affected districts Such a
measure might help in large degree
in the determination of the fly.

After experimenting for a period
extending over several months time,
H. A. Weinland, representative of the
California State Horticultural Com
mission, found formula for spray
which he believes will effectually
stamp out the Mediterranean fruitfiy
or at least will check its ravages to
"a considerable extent.
One of the ingredients used in the
new spray is refuse molasses. This,
mixed with brown sugar, arsenate-
lead and water in the proper proper
9!ons, constitutes the spray which has
been found stamps out the grub and
the adult fly without affecting the
fruit.
Several months ago, the first eXpe-
giments in this line were made en-
commercial orchards in South Africa
with fair success. A cheap grade of
'treacle was used instead of the sugar
mill refuse and, owing to the fact
that the experimenters had commercial
orchards to work on, they were able
to definitely tell as to the results Of
their experiments
Not being able to obtain the same
kind of treacle as that used by the
,entomologists in South Africa, Mr..
IWeinland took refuse molasses as a
substitute and made his first expert
1nents on the wild guava bushes.
He next tried the formula on the
mango trees and, although on ac'
count of the height of the trees, he
was unable to reach the top, the ex
pertinent was very successful and
showed that the formula would be
very potent as an exterminator of the
pests.
Three pounds of arsenate-lead, five
gallons of molasses, ten pounds OF
sugar and fifty gallons of water were
the proportions used.

OF Municipal
Amendments

will not, since, as is stated, leading
members of this organization side-step
the idea of introducing matters which
might dis upt the organization on the
rocks of political dissension.
]. p Cooke is another who is in
favor of some if not all, of these sug-
gestions. In fact the fifth, sixth and
seventh, as above given, are largely
his proposals.
1t has also been suggested that the
six supervisors, elected in accordance
with the above plan, be given power
to select the seventh; and, in case no
majority vote can be secured for any
one candidate, that the Governor be
required to make the appointment.
Some Of the advantages claimed by
the advocates of the proposed amend
ment are:
That IL would enable each of the
Two districts to nominate and elect
its best men without interference or
domination from the other.
That it would cut down expense, anu
would make the Mayor a useful, in
stead of largely an ornamental, mem
Der of the board.
That the four-year term would spell
greater efficiency, and that the recall
clause would check danger of abuse
of power while in Office
That the holding of county elections
separate from territorial and national
elections, would make them less parti'
san in character, and that greater care
and more consideration would be
spent not only in the selection oi
nominees, but by the voters who would
not be influenced greatly by territorial
issues.
