In the old days of Nevada City, California,
there were two rival church sociables, each
held monthly in alternate fortnights. At the
Protestant Episcopal social, dancing was in
order) at the Methodist Episcopal social, kiss
Ing games prevailed. Hut the Episcopalians
considered kissing games pernicious, and the
Methodists, held up their hands in holy horror
at the worldliness of their dancing ncighliors.
The lioys, however, fitted from bower to
bower, and were very good young Churchmen,
or very orthodox .Methodists as occasion de
manded. They do these things better at the
Ijcthcl social. Iloth the frving pan of Terp
sichore and the fire of Osculatus arc gracefully
avoided. Those to whom good singing, good
reading ami good conversation are unsatis
factory substitutes for cither dancing or kissing
games, would not hav c enjoyed themselves at
the liethcl social last Thursday evening.
Otherwise they might have spent a thoroughly
enjoyable evening.
On Wednesday last the manager of the Ilccia
plantation, at Koolau, had occasion to dis
charge a number of Chinamen who had been
working there as day hands. They got their
'1Bp1Ke an' furniture together in apparent
readiness for departure, but still lingered about
the place as if disinclined to go, and located
themselves so as to interfere with the mill work.
For aught the manager knew, their intention
may have been to create a further disturbance
by persuading others to join in a "strike,"
and he naturally ordered them off. Refusing
to obey the order, some natives who were
present became a little officious, and hard
words between them and the Chinese were
bandied back and forward. As a result, a
melee soon ensued in which bamlxra sticks
and other weapons were freely used, and two
Chinamen apparently "laid out." Dr. Mat
thics was immediately called upon to attend,
but he found that the dead men were only
plajing 'possum and that neither had rcccivcil
any severe injuries.
It is desirco to call the attention of the
government to a plot now a-brewing, which
may prove the entering wedge of an inter
national complication, unless nipped in its
callow flcdghnghood by the iron hand of
administrative interference which is what Mr.
Local Writer of the Daily Cabbage Garden
ought to consider a mighty fine metaphor.

permitted to tarry at Kohala, and it may be
well for the minister of .foreign affairs to dele
gate his share, in the statue pageantry to his
amiable undcr-secrctary. For there is no
knowing what may happen while he is away.
In consideration of tile bigness of the topic,
the big words employed in giving away this
grewsomc conspiracy ought to be fully and
freely forgiven.
Music Hall would have been none too large
comfortably to hold the audience that assem
bled last Tuesday evening in the hall of the
Athletic Association, assembled to witness the
Hanging of the Crane tableaux, given for the
benefit of the association by many amateurs
ladies and gentlemen, young men and maidens,
bojs and girls and babies. Mrs. E. P. Adams
read the lines introductory to and explanatory
of the various scenes. In the patomimic tab

Misses llcrnice Parke, Dora Dowsctt, Gabticllc
Severance and Delia Adams; Messrs. Henry
Whitney, Jr., Oscar White, John Dowsctt and

The people of Lahaina have been greatly
exercised over the failure of the government to
prov idc a physician for the neighborhood. A
number of prominent citizens sign a public
protest, printed in the Gazette of last Wednes
day. It reads as follows: "We, the under
signed, residents of Lahaina, desire through
your valuable columns to express in the
strongest terms possible our condemnation of
the government in their non-ability (or un
willingness) to provide us with n physician.
On account of being In this condition, a native
named Hoomana lost his life. The circum
stances of the case arc as follows: On Satur
day cv'cning Hoomana and Kalo became
involved in a quarrel, the result of which was
that Hoomana received a cut in his leftside
about two or two and half inches in length,
from which cut the bowels protruded. A
messenger was sent to Wailuku for a physician.
He rcturneil on Sunday noon, and almut 5
o'clock on the same day a messenger arrived
from the sheriff stating that the government
physician was too ill to go to Lahaina. The
man Hoomana lingered until Monday morning,
at which time he breathed his last. The
man's life, we believe, could have been easily
saved, as bis bowels were not cut nt all, but
they remaining out, without any attention,
became swollen and inflamed, which naturally
caused his death. We say, with strong em
phasis, that wc believe the death of this man is
attributable to the government. If the govern
ment physician was ill, why not send romc one
else, as we believe there is more than one
physician on the east side. There are two
plantations on this side within five miles of
each other, cmplovjng between five and six
hundred men and women. They are liable to
accidents, and should one occur, and they be
treated as was this poor Hoomana, then it will
be time for us to enter our protest, not in
writing, but in person"
.I.V AVSV1CIOUS OVKKIXO.
ine nan iirotncrs opened their new ice
cream room on Hotel street, opposite their old
restaurant, last Monday evening. The new es
tablishment consists of an entrance room, fitted
with a soda and candy counter, handsomely
decorated and hung with chromos. Hack of
this entrance room is a long hallway with pri
vaic rooms nanung uoui sides, isach room
has a table at which four persons comfortably
may sit. Each room has a natty curtain, a set
01 enromos and a dado, the opening was at
tended by a" large number of invited cuests.
and was a source of enjoyment to the visitors
and of pride on the part of the hosts. The
gentlemen comixKinc the societv firm of Brow n.
Jones, Robinson, and Smithe were among the
socially select invited to the opening of the
r.iue ice urcam rariors 01 tnc Messrs. Hart,
Ixst Monday night.
All these Gentlemen are unmarried, and.
considering it not good form to invite ladies to
an entertainment that was gratuitous, they went
together unaccompanied by any of the oppos
ing sex.
It is well they did, as the seouel will prove.
Jones and Robinson are dapper voung men of
unprciennous muscular development, bmithe is
a six-footer and Browne an athlete, tipping the
scales at two nunured and two.
The latter had recently joined ''The So
ciety for the Total Suppression of Puns," of
which factthe others were unaware.
Four kinds of delicious cream were being
served : chocolate, lemon, vanilla and rasp
berry. Of these Brown chose the sort first
named, at which Jones incautiously suggested
"it's good you came early, Brown, for that
kind of cream has been known to choke-a-latc
comer."
There was a swift but noiseless movement,
a gasp, a gurgle and a moan, and Jones limp
and unconscious, was consideratefy'and ten
derly laid under the table.
The cream was eaten in silence; Brown
carefully appropriating Jones' share. But as
they rose to no. Robinson, in the fullness of his
appreciation, imprudently exclaimed "Hearts
are trumps."
There was a s. b. n. m., a g., a. g. and a m.
and Robinson, 1. and u., w. c. and t. 1. u. t. t.
hmitlic, trembling in every limb, walked out
with his friend into the pure, fresh, tobacco-
scented air. He wrung his friend's hand over
the latter's front catc. and as Brown turned to
go up the steps, said with studied carelessness,
"That's the first free blow I've had for free
years."
lhcn he turned away and ran down the
street like a startled roebuck. There was a
snort of vengeful fury, a clatter of pursuing
lect, a despairing snicker ol inappropriate
laughter, a chorus of expostulations, a sound
as of vigorous kicks, a dull thud. And
the Hotel street policeman of one bright par
ticular beat considerately put out his cigar and
covered his eyes with his fan.

many of the children had odd knitted caps of

The case of the crown, uttered against John
Richardson versus Robert Grieve and Alatau
T, Atkinson for libel, came up for trial before
the police court on Monday last. Mr. A. S.

dismiss the case on the ground that no lilrel
had Irecn committed, ami that the Indictment
was faulty in specifvjng the degree, which was
a matter for n jury to decide upon. Judge
Bickertnn notified defendants that he would
take the matter under careful advisement, and
that he would render his decision on the com

Following is the judge's decision, rendered
on Wednesday, May 2d 1 "The court has
taken this matter under careful consideration.
In recard to the first eround taken bv the de.
fense, 'that the prosecution should not charge

tainly think so, and have so considered it; I
find portions of it arc quotations, but the w liter
of the article comments on them, and taking it
as a whole, I consider it libelous, and I think
that the charge might have been made fuller

graph. It seems to me hardly probable that
the words I allude to emanated from your
own pen or from the pen of any one at nil
acquainted with the work of education. I can
but think they must have slipped into the
paper by one of those accidents so common to
the newspaper. At all events, as the para
graph contains a slightly erroneous statement
and an unfair comparison, perhaps you will Ire
good enough to allow me a short space to
correct the error and to attempt to convince
inu wiuci ui 111s uiuairncss.
The error is involved in the following:
"Teachers of schools have much more time to
themselves than those of almost any other
avocation; they have but five hours' work to
perform daily." It is not always safe to state
the minimum required to represent the work
actually accomplished. True, the actual hours
of teaching required by the Board of Educa
tion, arc live, but is not the personal prepara
tion of the teacher to Ire called work? There
are very few subordinate teachers who can
afTord to spend less than two hours daily on
this important branch of their labor, and docs
the writer imagine that the principal's work
ends at 2 r. M. ? He has accounts to keep,
exercises to correct, work to plan, sick to
visit, complaints to answer, and a host of
things to do, which, all or nearly so, must be
done after that hour.
The comparison with "mercantile clerks
and liook-kccpers generally," is unfair in at least
two ways. First, everyone will allow that one
hour of good earnest work in teaching, will
take more steam out of one, to use a common
expression, than two spent at a desk. Half
an hour's worry, with a disagreeable temper or
a stupid child, will effect one a hundred times
more than an error in the trial-balance.
Altogether, the wear and tear of a teacher's
work is beyond doubt far greater than that o
any one in a clerical capacity, and, therefore,
to do good and efficient work longer intervals
of total cessation of labor are necessary for
teachers than for clerks and bookkeepers
generally.
The second thing to take in consideration is
the Ay of teachers. How would a clerk or
liookkeepcr like to spend his life for the
salary of a teacher? I turn out every year
boys of sixteen who begin with salaries as
great as some teachers of several years' stand
ing are novv getting; and what would you
think, Mr. Editor, if you saw )our sons whom
you have trained yourself and fitted for their
office, earning higher salaries than your own,
in lar interior capacities, under the same em
ployers ? This is what teachers see every year
111 1111 Kinguom. aurciy, some compensation
should be given for this, besides the ioy and
pleasure in the success of the pupil, Clio
is the teacher s son.
One word more, if the teacher happens to
find an hour to spare from his labors, he is
sometimes obliged to employ it in outside
work to eke out sufficient to pay his way, buy
a few books, or to enable him to get a change

free from all responsibilities. Still it is r1 my
uwn opinion inai ine cierKS nerc are over
worked, at least their hours arc too long. In
conclusion, I should like to say a word for the
ladies who presented the petition for the extcn
sion of the holidays. lean vouch for them,
that they do not fall under the head of those
described In the concluding sentence of the
paragraph under notice as " physically incom
petent, or invalids, or their work at variance
with their natural tastes." A longer breath
ing time than one week is necessary, lioth
for teachers and pupils, at the end of a term.
The writer of the paragraph overlooks the fact
that the pupils are to be considered. The last
term was particularly fatiguing and arduous,
owing to the long continuance of south wind
and several other causes.
I am, sir, yours laithfully,

T1IK Jv-tfir TAX LAW.
An Inquiry and a suggestion respectfully ad
lressed to his excellency the minister of
finance 1
Section 10 says : "All carts and dravs shall
he subject to an annual tax of two dollars each,
aside from value as iicrsonal property, to be
paid by the owners thereof." The clause
aliove, Winning with "aside," implies that
carts and drays are not only to pay a specific
tax ui iwu uuuars cacn, out arc also to ue
taxed as personal property.
But Section 17 says t "All personal property
within this kingdom, not subject to specific
taxes, shall be subject to an annual tax of three
iiuarters of one per cent uxm the cash value of
tnc same." Here the plain implication is, that
lersonal property, subject to specific taxes,
shall not be subject to the general tax of three
quarters of one per cent.
Inquiry t Shall the assessor therefore stop
with the assessment of the two-dollar specific
tax on A's cart, or shall he also assess the value
of the cart, say $75, to A, as personal
property?
Suggestion 1 That the native assessors be in
structed to follow the English version of Sec
tion 25, rather tlian the Hawaiian, since the
latter omits the "eight" before "years,"
and hat "years'' " na makahiki" only, and
as it stands is quite incomprehensible. A.
MISS MA SIKH Wir.Ll.tnii.
One of the must noted women of America,
Miss Frances Williard, President of the
National Women's Christian Temperance
Union, with her secretary, Miss Anna Gordon,
is now- on the Tasitic Coast, engaged In tern
perance work. There Is a ossib.lity that
these to ladies may visit Honolulu, and, if so,
perhaja other points in this kingdom.
Few speaker of the present day have such
Ejwer with an audience as Miss Williard.
very where, east and west, In the United
States her success has been unprecedented in
awaking enthusiasm in the temperance cause.
In cultured Iloston, Music Hall and Tremont
Temple hare been, at different times, too
small to accommodate the eager thousands who
have thronged to hear this gifted woman. In
a recent tour through the Southern States, in
every city where she spoke. Miss WiUiartTs
audiences were only limited by the site of the
urgc&i nans cuiainaDie.
The results of MU Williud's work is not a
mere temporary enthusiasm, which dies out
with her departure .She so grounds the Utcrt
et in temperance upon principle and solidifies
it in organisation, that It lives and shows Us
value by its work, I trust that the postdbUftty
of her coming to Honolulu may become an
actuality. If we should lie so fortunate as to
receive a visit from Miss Williard, she will re
ceive a warm and enthusiastic welcome, ami
an eager hearing. J, A. CRUAN.

that extreme tightness of drew is at

"Even beautiful arms, when very tightly In

their Infinite chaneeablcness of ihane. lin-M.

New England Mutual Life Insurance Co.
The thirty-eighth annual statement of the old fashion
ed fmrtty mutual life Insurance company whose name
appears aboe, has been ssurd. Organized In 1843
when little was known by the average public in this
country at least concerning the advantages of this
most unselfish beneficent principle In Its application foi
the protection of relict dependencies, the old New
England Mutual Life Inst Co, of I tost on, Massachu
setts, takes rank among the early exponents of this im
portant auxiliary to the Interests of virtuous and provi
dent persons, as also communities, upon whom charity
makes many requisitions In favor of the "always with
ou" unfortunates of earth. The history of this com
pany shows such a record of management that any
man who contemplates providing his dependencies with
the indemnity afforded by life Insurance, may safely
conclude that his contract will be honorably complied
with when the time for pajment ofhisclaimshall arrive.
Heing strictly mutual by Its charter, no stockholders or
other persons whatever are entitled to any advantage,
one over another member. 1 he fact that this company
his uniformly declined to entertain any of the many
schemes, catch-penny plans or gilded pill Inducements,
by which to rope in the unwary gudgeon, that are In
vogue by less scrupulous companies. Is of itself an
cvidrnce of dignified management, as also the best
possible argument in favor of its well deserved reputa
tion of high merit, than which no life insurance Insti
tution extant stands superior. As will be observed by
the annual statement above referred to, the gross assets
of this company on the first of January, 188, was
$16,910,465.97, against which all liabilities aggregate
$,3i57457-99. leaving the handsome surplus on 4 ftr
ttnU basis of reserve $2,635,894.93 or If estimated by
the New )ork standard at 4J4 per cent., the suplus
would be about fouk million dollars, or nearly
one-quater of the entire assets of the company.
We are not aware of any more desirable institution to
be insured with than the New England Mutual Life
Ins. Co., and we are confident that no honorable ad
ministration is exercised by any corporation than that
so long expressed by this company under the direction
of PreVt Benjamin F. Stevens, whose personal atten
tion is not omitted in even the minor details of the
business of his trust. An examination of the applica
tion and form of policy Issued by this company Is re
commended before parties Insure elsewhere.
