POLICE COURT NOTES

Thirty-seven persons we're taken to
police headquarters over tie week

cheat and insanity to having opium
in their possession. The station was
taxed to the limit.
Because she had imbibed too freely
of samshu, Mrs. Ahou, Of Dowsett
lane, was taken to the emergency
hospital yesterday afternoon, and was
treated for what the attendants
thought was poisoning. DR.. Aver dis
covered that it was only samshu and
sent her home.
Thomas Douglas, a 18th Infantry
soldier, driving Capt. Bankhead's car,
was placed under arrest late last night
charged with reckless driving. He
was running the machine, in which
was Capt. Russell, 25th Infantry, when
he tried to squeeze between two other
cars in front of Vida Villa. He
smashed into a car driven by a Japan.

wrecked, although no one was injured.
The two prisoners who dove into
a clump Of keawe bushes last week
and made a clean getaway, are once
more at home in the city Jail. Kapu
Keawekane went home to his father,
who promptly turned him over to the
jailer. Kapeliela was picked up in
Kakaako by special officer.
When a drunken soldier at Kuliouou
yesterday pulled revolver and threat
ened to shoot anyone in sight after
he had counted to twenty, the gang
of carousers with him broke for the
keawe trees. One brave soldier
sneaked up behind the gunman and hit
him over the head with an iron bar.
The man with the revolver was
dumped into the sidecar of a motor.

Jerome J. Patten, So years old, and
E. Thayer, aged 80, both photograph
ers living at 522 Hotel street, got into
an argument over whether a rat
catching cat should continue to eaten
rats around the premises. Thayer, it
was charged, tried to wiring the cats

swore out warrant for assault and
battery against the older man, who
was arrested and later released on
bail.

Hawaiian who ran amuck near the

insane, was causing trouble for jap

Eight men held him down while the

WANT BIBLE MODERNIZED

The question of undermining the
Bible and bringing it up to present
day conditions caused lively debate
at Mondays meeting of the Baptist
ministers, of Philadelphia Rev. Dan
iel G.. Stevens, of the American Bap-
fist Publication Society, read a paper
on THE Baptists of Today and the
Bible" He contended that the words
of the Bible should be interpreted to
suit the needs of the time.
Rev. Milton C. Evans, president Of
Grocer Seminary, said that while he
favored Mr.. Stevens's address, it was
not radical enough to suit him. He
said that not only should the Bible be
interpreted to suit present conditions,
but that the Bible, as it now stood,
was a detriment rather than help
in the teaching of Christ's law, and
that in his theological classes he had
always deep fear for them attempt
ing to follow literally the teachings
of the Scriptures. The day would
come, he said, when the Bible in it's
present form would have to be aban-
doned as rule CT faith.
DR.. Evans further said that if the
Bible were not changed, so as 10 omit
many obviously foolish things, such
as certain prophecies, which foolish
people believe refer to the present
war. etc., the book would soon lose
it's influence and fall into disuse.
One of the most glazing signs OF
the perilous times into which it seems
the world is entering is the neglect
OF reputation of the scriptures. We
expect people who are averse to the
tranmels of the book to reject it, but
when ministers Of the Gospel treat
the Bible with contempt conditions
are becoming appalling.

vIERECk VS.. RIDDER.
Richmond Journal.)

George Sylvester Viereck makes
an appeal in his weekly Ito Ger
many for the feelings of German
American citizens who are conscript-
ed for the army. He thinks that we
should spare Americans Of German
descent the torture of shedding by
compulsion, legal or moral, the
blood of their brothers. In the war
between the states brother was often
found opposing brother and occa-
sionally father against son. More
remote kinship was repeatedly in
armed conflict. Such conditions
were far more painful than could
happen in the present war, since in
addition to the ties of consanguinity
was the fact that the country like
wise was divided 1t will be of rare
occurrence for father and son to OPP
pose each other in the war between
the United States and Germany. The
Emerican-born sons of German par
ents who are conscripted could hard
ly be so arraigned. They should be
proud of the opportunity to lend
their unit-might to the defeat of
kaiserism and all that it implies. Was
it not because of the autocratic pow
ers of the emperor that their fathers
left Germany for land Of greater
personal liberty? What better boon
could they confer on their less for
tunate kinsmen across the water
than freedom approximating their
own? That, surely, is worth fight
ing for. But what shall be said Of
the American-born son of German
parents, living in this country. who
enlists to fight for the kaiser? There
are scores of such. They are vir-
tually helping to perpetuate a form
of government their fathers sought
to escape from. Such inconsistency
is lamentable and such service mex
cusable. 1t may be arged that they
went over to what they term the
"F'atherland" before the United
States declared war. That does not
materially change the situation. AL
ways, it has been war of militant
autocracies against genuine demo
cracies. No real American at heart
or in spirit would align himself on
the side of kaiserism or czarism.
It is unthinkable. The best service,
then, that citizen of German des-
cent can do for his kinsfolk across
the water is to fight with heart and
soul against the principle of Prus-
sian militarism, Mr.. Viereck's plain
tive appeals to the contrary. not
withstanding. That is Mr.. Bernard
Riders advice and the editor of
the Stats Zeitung is better Amer
lean than Editor Viereck has shown
himself to be.

ions: not such divisions as those OF
1914-have been transferred. If the
determination Of German and Rus
sian soldiers can be encouraged ana
the country left to anarchy after
the collapse of the Provisional Gov
eminent, the Germans will be able
to strengthen still further their
lines in France and Belgium.
And if the Teutonic Powers could
either win or get peace on the ba-
sis of a drawn fight, their very next
step would be- the establishment OF
STRONG" Government in Russia
The ultra democrats would have
betrayed representative government
only to find themselves once more
under the heel of a military autoc-
racy fortified by German and Aus
TRAN support. The Council that is
sued the manifesto to the army to
60 on with the war and keep faith
with the allies has Derspicacity
enough to see that popular govern
ment in Russia is menaced by the
ultra pacifist, or pro-German, influ-
ences.

TRANSATLANTIC AN EXOTIC

Attorney General John Garland
Pollard, who is stumping the state
for Governor. appeared on the east
elm side of Chesapeake Bay Monday
and delivered speech in North
ampton county. Among other things
ne declared himself to be in favor OF
the initiative and referendum.
We have ever been democrats eN
amino. but must confess that we have
generally flinched at the initiative,
referendum and recall planks of the
"wild and woolly west" platforms. 1t
is doubtful whether this exotic will
take root in the Old Dominion. We
deem it unnecessary to go into de-
tails concerning this idea of democ-
racv which would remove the roof
from all government and rule the
world by mass meeting or, more
properly speaking, by mob law.

THE RUSSIAN MANIFESTO

The manifesto addressed to the
army by the Council of Soldiers and
Workmens' Delegates of Russia, is
reasSuring in some degree. But, AS
a contemporary observes, its impor"
lance depends upon the amount Of
influence it has with the army, and
for that we must wait. But it does
something to restore confidence IN the
Russian democracy to find this Coun-
Gil. representing the Russian Social
istic elements. fully awake to the
menace of Teutonism, and appealing
TO the soldiers to continue the war,
not to refrain from offensive move
ments against the enemy, and not to
think for Il moment of separate
peace for Russia.
The overthrow Of the Gar shook
the throne Of the Hohenzollerns and
the HapS5urg. 1t is cutie certain
that there will be no democratic Rus
STA If Berlin and Vienna can prevent
1t. If the Central Powers can para
lyze Russian action they will have a
little more hope of winning the war.
They cannot possibly succeed, for the
United States is a far more fornlid-
able antagonist than Russia has
