IHnSE pESrRucIlYE BEES.

EDIToR BULLETIN 81 wish in
friendly spirit to correct the impress
sion that the humble bee is the in
sect that is doing SO much destruc-
ton to buildings in Honolulu and
elsewhere at present; the insect is
the carpenter bee { (Xylocopo rjola-
ceo), and very different from the
other insect.
The humble bee is really the hum
BILE bee (bombuS mp&corUm), to
which name it has got corrupted.
They are found in meadows and are
valued for the good they do, carry
ing pollen from plant to plant, there
by fertilizing them. They are espe-
cially fond of clover. They build
their nests on the ground and often
| have seen them cut in half by the
mower.
i feel sure that this is the insect
that the Kentucky firm has q con-
tract for and not the other destruc-
tive insect that would be of no use
TO them in fertilizing clover.
] do not think we have the hum
bic bee otherwise called humble bee
on these islands; if any of your
readers have seen it should like to
hear of it. Yours truly,

How or in what way the Government
is accountable, or by what means it
can cause return of the "good old
times," does not appear.
To be sure, no candid man will
deny that times with us are dull
comparatively so, at least; and no
intelligent man will deny that some
minor circumstances within our own
control may help to augment the
dullness; but the main cause OF
causes are of nature that we are
unable to regulate. Therefore it is
true wisdom on our part to unite il
curing what is curable; and for the
rest, cheerfully make the best o
our circumstances, hoping for better
times until better times come.

DR., FANNY,

EDITOR BULLETIN:-I am sur
prised at the sentiment of two of
your locals in last evenings paper
in regard to the appointment of
Government physician for Hilo.
Had you been personally acquainted
with the facts, ] am certain that the
items would not have appeared in
your paper.
CDR. Fanny" as Hiloites like to
call Miss Francis Wetmore, NJ. D.,
is pre-eminently qualified, scientific
ally, physically, and by her thor
ough knowledge of the natives, to
fill the position of Government
physician in the Hilo district. She
had become familiar with many of
the usages in medicine before she
went to the United States to take q
practical course in one of our best
medical schools, then she came
back and practised medicine for
some time. When she saw that for
some diseases almost peculiar to
this country it would benefit her to
study under celebrated specialists,
so she again went to the States and
remained another year. Her sue
cess since coming back the second
time has been very great, so much
that the larger part of the inhabit-
ants, especially natives and Portu-
guese, have for some time employed
her. She is sympathetic, gentle
and industrious.
"Dr. Fanny is not hampered by
any of the sham conventionalities of
so-called polite society, but pro-
perly dressed for her work and for
protection against the weather. She
mounts her horse and let the rain
come down in torrents, or the night
be ever so dark she is instantly off
to any part of the district to allie
viate suffering, never asking whether
the people wanting her be rich
or poor. Of all the appointments
made by the Board of Health, none
will give the satisfaction to the peo-
| pie OF Hilo that this one will. And
if selection of Government physi-
clans for Hilo was left to popular
vote, DR.. Fanny would certainly re-
ceive nine-tenths- of the votes, let
her opponents be whom they might.
| T.. LYCAN.
