MATTERS
Mayor Fern wrote a letter to the
Board of Supervisors, Inlldly com
plaining of the lateness of passage- of
the appropriation bill, which did not
leavo time for him to consider it with
duo deliberation. Also be objected
to changes of Items after they had
settled the bill In caucus with him.
Chairman Logan of the ways and
means committee pleaded not guilty
on behalf of that body, saying he haa
urged the Board for weeks to settle
the Jail nnd other matters, among new
ly legislated functions, quickly so as
to enable the committee to complete
the estimates of expenditures. And,
with reierence to th Mayor's state
ment that the committee had not fur
nished estimates of revenue, he stated
tiiat he orally informed tho Board of
the probably certain amount of revenue
for this half year.
Supervisor Quinn ndniitted the loss
of time In reference to tho new obliga
tions of the Board, but said It was
the sanitation and not the police com
mittee that kept things back. He
thanked the Mayor for not holding up
the bill.
By unanimous vote the letter was
accepted and placed on file, the Super
visors evidently appreciating the con
ciliatory tone of the message in con
trast wth some former communications
from the Mayor.
There was some exchange of badin
age between the Mayor and Board
over the plumbing ordinance the lirst
reading or which by title was moved
by Chairman Aylett or the sanitation
committee.
Logan stated that the amendments
made by Deputy Attorney Milvertou
were merely technical, so that It would
be unnecessary to read tho document
through at that stage.
Kane, ns the motion was about to
be put, asked that the first section be
read. This was done, revealing that
the appointment or the inspector wns
by the Board or Supervisors.
Mayor Fern asked what kind of a
job were they trying lo put up on
him. The plumbing inspector and
appointments to the Board libd Logan
confessed he hnd forgotten unit parti
cular change In the bill when lie spoku
about alterations.
The Mayor said the Board had taken
him by surprise with the provision In
question but confessed Hint lie was
aware of the contents of the statute
.from the time It was signed by tlio
Governor.
Logan retorted that then it was the
.Mayor who had sprung n surprise on
the bound tin making 'appointments
when he knew he did not have the
power. Ho wns us sly as any of them.
The bill passed to publication.
A report from the sanitation com
mittee covered the draft of an agree
ment between the Board of Supervisors
and the Queen's Hospital and was
adopted unanimously.
According to the terms of the agree
ment referred to, the Queen's Hospital
will admit all Indigent persons at the
rate of $1.50 per hospital day of 24
hours on requisition by the City and
County Physician, or, in cases of emer
gency and in police cases, by the Police
Physician. No person shall bo reckon
ed as Indigent who Is entitled to re
ceive a sick benefit from any person,
corporation or organization, amount
ing to J1.50 per day.
Discharges of Indigent persons from
the hospital shall be made upon tho
written order of the City and County
Physician. Payments for Indigent sick
admitted to the hospital shall be made
'by tlie City and County monthly
Rights of visitation and inspection
shall be accorded by the hospital an
thoi'tties to the Mayor and the mem
hers of the Board of Supervisors. The
ticasurcr of the hospital shall furnish
the Board with copies of all annual ac
cotdits as rendered to the hospital
trustees.

for a hundred persons.
At tho instance of the sanitation
committee- the clerk was authorized
to advertlso for bids for burial of In
digent dcail.
Very satisfactory reports were receiv
ed from Road Supervisor Wilson on
the work of tho garbage service and
from Road Overseer Travis of Ewa on
his work.
Murston Campbell, Superintendent of
Public Works, by letter notified the
Board of the Territory's acqulstton of
land for the widening of Hotel street
between Alakeu and Richards streets,
requesting the Bourd to move fences
and curb back to tho new line. Re

While the Board was considering the
dnto for next meeting. Audntor Bick
nell precipitated a warm debate by ask
lug for information nbout a proposed
shifting of ofllce quarters to admit the
road department to the municipal Uoor
in the Mclntyre building.
Quinn contended that the Board had
ulieailv decided the matter in a way
to cive the road department one room

inspector nnd leaving District Magis

Honolulu more than any other city in the World, io
a place where the EVENING PAPER gets the news
first. The clock here is over two hours behind the
clock at San Francisco, five hours behind New York
and ten to eleven hours behind the clocks in the Euro
pean capitals.
This means that when THE STAR is going to press
The Day Is Closed In Washington, Chicago, New York

Under modern conditions it takes practically no time

The Star gets every

Dispatches giving
The News of a
le World
For the day just ended
Here are some of the features that go to make the
evening paper the predominating factor in an advertis
ing campaign:
It is delivered at the home each night when the
whole family has plenty of time to read it.
It is carried home by the business man when his
day's work is done and it stays there. A morning pa
per is usually carried down town by the head of the
family and hurriedly read.
The evening paper is not read hurriedly, but thor
oughly, so that all the advertisements receive their
share of attention.
It presents the store news a little ahead, giving the
prospective purchaser time to plan a. shopping tour
for the next morning.
The evening paper presents the news the day it hap
pens. The morning paper the day after.
The evening paper presents the news first. The morn
ing paper merely elaborates it.
