MONDAY,
MAY 1, 1893
A most commendable course is
being taken by the Board of Health
in urging members to acquaint
themselves with the numerous de
tails of work in that department.
The plan can be advantageously
applied to other bureaus of the
Government.
The expressions "under the
shadow of the Boston's gatlings,"
" to be laid aside, labeled 1 n. g. "
and "assaults by the spoils bri
gade," which have long been heard
in the vicinage of Kaahumanu and
Merchant streets, are at last crop
ping out in print. Upon examina
tion, however, they prove to be the
same old familiar political chest
nuts revived under the guise of
genuine editorial bonbons.
By
clerical error made in
copying a financial statement,
the Advertiser represented Mr.
Damon's estimate of the value of
the government lands at .25 in
stead of $2.50 per acre. The jour
nal which drew attention to the
error however, admits the conser
vatism of Mr. Damon's estimate,
in accordance with which the value
of the Crown Lands should be two
millions instead of one. The error
is not costly which can extort so
unwilling a concession.
This is the opening day of the
great Columbian Exposition at
Chicago. To-day its doors have
been thrown open to admit the
wondering crowds gathering there
from all lands and isles to witness
the 'works of industry, art and
science contributed by every en
ligLlened and unenlightened people
on the face of the earth. As the
preliminary plans have been based
on a scale of magnitude never be
fore attempted, involving an outlay
of sorre twenty millions of dollars
for preparation alone, it is safe to
predict that the display will sur
pass in richness, grandeur, novelty
and brilliancy all previous exposi
tions. Each state and n?.Lion seems
bent on outvieing every other in
the rarity and costliness of its ex
hibits designed to honor the fame
of Christopher Columbus. Hawaii
joins with the eloquent orator,
Chauncey M. Depew, in his address
the inauguration ceremony,
which tooEf pi if CS4ir October last.:
All hail, Columbus, discoverer,
dreamer, hero and apostle ! We here,
of every race and country, recognize
the horizon whieh bounded his vision
and the infinite scope of his genius.
The voice of gratitude and praise for
all the blessings which have been
showered upon mankind by his ad
venture is limited to no language, but
is uttered in every tongue. Neither
marble nor brass can fitly form his
statue. Continents are his monument,
and unnumbered millions, past, pres
ent, and to come, who enjoy in their
liberties and their happiness the fruits
of his faith, will reverently guard and
preserve, from century to century, his
name and fame.
THE OFFICE VS. THE CITIZEN.
Recent events have led to some
difference of opinion as to the rela
tions of office-holders to politics,
and there are some persons who
think that the duty of abstinence
from partisan activity absolves the
office-holder from the duties of a
citizen.
"We are of a different mind. It
is true, certainly, that public offi
cials should conduct themselves
with an eye single to the efficiency
of the service; that they should
use office for no purpose extrinsic
to its public function, and that they
should devote their energies as
officials, not to the advance
ment of the interest of any
individual, sect or party, but
solely to tho service of the people
as a whole. The Advertiser does
not believe in spoils, and we have
always strenuously insisted upon
the maintenance of a pure and non
partisan public service a3 the only
course consonant with the main
tenance of constitutional liberty
and the safety of the state.
This does not, however, in any
manner imply that the office
holder is a mere administrative
machine, and that because he may
not serve a party he ha3 no duty to
the public which is not included in
the driving of a government mule
or the footing of a cash book. On
the contrary, he is a subject of all
the duties which stand above party,
which are higher and more bind
ing and more permanent than the
transient and noisy conflicts of the
hour. Precisely because he is re
quired to abstain from the ordinary
political activities he Ehould per
haps be considered in a peculiar
degree the subject of these higher
obligations. We should look to
the Government officers, not indeed
for active political workers, but for
pure and disinterested patriots.
We should expect to find in their
ranks men ready to make larger
sacrifices than most for the up
building and improvement of soci
ety and the maintenance of the
public security and order.
In these times of uncertainty,
the cause of the government can
not spare the services of any of its
adherents. Every man who is
loyal, be he office holder or not,
should be ready to take up arms
for the cause. Military duty is
the duty of every able bodied
young man, and those who derive
their sustenance from the govern
ment should be the first to rally
to its support. No man has a
right to stand idly by and share
the benefits for which others have
labored to do so is to be a para
site and moral beggar. "I am a
government employee," is an ag
gravation, not an extenuation of
the offence. The duties of citizen
ship are paramount, and least of
all to be shirked by those who are
by profession the servants of the
state.
Idaho Diamonds.
One of tho Tiffanv experts and
others recently pronounced against
the alleged f diamonds irom the
Idaho fields, but Herman Vreis-
lander, an experienced diamond
cleaver from Amsterdam, who is
now in an office at No. 51 Maiden
Lane, disagrees with them. About
three weeks ago he received from a
correspondent in Boiso City three
stones which he says are genuine
diamonds. Mr. Vreislander says :
"About January 13th, when the
papers were full of stories of dia
monds found in Idaho, I wrote to
all the persons with whom I had
previously corresponded . on the
subject, giving references and ask
ing for samples. Eventually I re
ceived a package containing three
small stones, with a letter saying
that they were found on the
sender's own property.
"The stones are fine diamonds,
aggregating in weight 1 9-10 carats,
and are unlike any others that I
have ever seen. In color they re
semble somewhat the Jagerston
stein stones, but in my opinion are
superior to them, their delicate
aquamarine tint indicating that on
polishing they will possess a finer
whiteness than the bluer African
stones.
The remaakable feature of these
Idaho stones is their peculiar shape.
They are what are known in Hol
land as "packwatjes," otherwise
stones with blunt edges. Now,
while such stones are found in
most diamond mines, the speci
mens are rare. This peculiarity
makes it improbable that these
diamonds have come from any
where except Idaho. New York
World.
e
An inventive genius has a scheme
on hand which he declares will be
an actual reality in less than a
year. It is nothing less than the
establishment of a "Universal Pro
vider Co.," which will go far to
wards making the lot of the hard
working housewife more endurable.
The Universal Provider, in the first
place, will give to the subscriber a
refrigerator that will have attached
a fine pair of scales. Every morn
ing bright and early an immense
van will drive up to the back gate
and the driver will go into the
refrigerator and get a slip left by
the housewife. On this slip will be
the order for the day's provisions.
Ice will be put in the refrigerator,
and milk, tea, meat, sugar, pota
toes, and in fact anything ordered.
The scales are there for the pur
pose of weighing the provisions.
If this branch turns out a success,
the Universal Provider will then
furnish cooked food, piping hot
and ready for the table. Breakfast,
dinner and supper will be served at
the proper time and the rates will
be startlingly low. Phila. Press.

A GREAT THRONG LISTEN TO
THE NEW OEGAN.
An K'xtenl-l I'rorsm'iir l"rrll Out
WUU Arllic Effect Central l"u
in Church U Now Craiple!e.
V
For many weeks the new organ has
been an object of general interest,
especially to music-lovers, and for a
fortnight past anticipation ha been
compounding in eagerness. It culmi
nated Saturday evening in crowded
car, in throngs hurrying toward the
church and in the large audience al
ready assembled at 7 o'clock.
The church interior did not blaz
with its wonted brilliancy, but the ef
fect would not have been better if the
stores could have spared all their
lights; the choir and organ Ave re in
high relief, while the audience was
cast into the shade.
There were a few flowers on the
platform, but the very simplicity of
decoration seemed to indicate that the
chief pleasure was to be for the ear,
and it was with ciuribus tirrectlz that
the audience heard the opening chords
of "Old Hundred" pealing from the
the new instrument, chords which
were swelled by the voices of all pres
ent. Then the audience settled com
fortably in the pew?, feeling the pleas
ure of a duty done, and prepared to
look and listen to the rest of the pro
gramme. The first number was Concone's
Hymn to the Kternal, which was well
rendered by Mrs. Judd, and furnished
a titling introduction to what followed.
"Hark! hark! the organ loudly peals"
was a tine outburst of fifty selected
singers, the combined St. Andrew's
and Central Union choirs, whose
voices tilled the house. It is difficult
for so large a choir to keep to
gether "without a leader, and it
is creditable to the singers that
they should have done so well, espe
cially in the ending. The "Ave
Maria" was an artistic production
throughout, marked by the earnest
ness and simplicity the piece demands.
With Mr. ltose as violinist, and Miss
Castle at the piano, the introduction
was necessarily well played; the voice
part was clear and full, and well sus
tained ; the organ and 'cello were
always an accompaniment, never too
prominent. The whole was pure
music. The choir-work was good, but
the volume could have been height
ened in each case had the double choir
sung after the others. The Kaumaka
pili and Kawaiahao choirs added
greatly to the pleasure of the evening,
and their renderings of church music
are good and ever improving ; though
Mrs. Kahalewai sang no solo, her
astonishiug voice could be heard
through and dominating the chorus.
The St. Andrew's euo:r stiowd careful
training, and that blending of voices
which comes to those who are accus
tomed to singing together. It is felt
that all showed a most kindly spirit
in helping at this time.
The quartette was one of the best
numbers of the evening. It may not
be generally known that this was
written by Agnes Boyd, a girl
of 15, and that the young com
poser was no other than Mrs.
Judd. While the solos and the quar
tette parts were good especially in the
shading, the duet between Mrs. Taty
and Mr. llooth was a surprise in the
blending of the voices, and a revela
tion of the capacity of the soprano
which was fuller and more expressive
than we have yet heard it in public.
Mr. Henry Jaeger is a young singer of
promise, and it is' hoped that he will
continue the patient work of cultiva
tion which is doing much for his
voice. His low notes were a delight,
and his lowest one D on a concert-
Eitch piano seemed F sharp. Of Miss
ale's organ solo we can scarcely
speak too flatteringly The adagio,
with its far-away music, the joyous
allegro and its diflicult pedal work, or
the fugue ending in stately triumph
which was best? So it is with Miss
Dale's gifts; shall we enjoy most her
singing or her directing or her play
ing? In all she expresses herself, and
pleases. The writer, at least, has
never heard Miss Beckwith with so
much pleasure. She sang with much
feeling, and her high notes were well
sustained and wonderfully clear.
But we did not know what the or
gan was until Mr. Taylor played, wrho
put the fine creature through all its
paces. When the splendid strains of
Star Spangled Banner and America
rolled through the building the people
would have applauded if they had
dared. Appended i3 the programme:
