A RAT INVASION.

A recent number of the Peking
Gazette contains a memorial to the
Emperor of China from the Cover
nor of Uliasautai stating, that owing
to the appearance of swarms of rats,
it has been found necessary to alter
the routes of the Government cour-
ier service in three Of the postal
stations in the khalbha region in
Outer Mongolia. For two years
past, it is learned, the pasturage in
the districts in question has suffered
severely from the ravages of these
vermin, and last year much of the
grass was eaten up. The whole
country have been honeycombed
with their burrows, and the horses
and camels are reported in a famish-
ing state. The burrows are source
of great danger to the mounted
couriers, and the want of forage
renders it impossible to maintain a
supply Of animals for the service.

SANITARY ITEMS.

The immunity of Chinese from
typhoid fever, in localities where
the circumstances seem favorable to
its spread, is attributed by DR..
Underwood, of Kin Kiang, TO the
fact that cold unboiled water is
rarely used when tea can be had.
Professor Leeds, of the Steven
Institute, commenting on an cpl
demic of typhoid fever on Mt.
Holly, n. j., gives fresh confirma-
ton to the belief that drinking
water polluted with animal putri-
scence is the most common cause of
such outbreaks of disease. He
claims that minute quantities of
alum, Il half grain to the gallon,
will steriize the water by the pre-
cipitation of the bacteria.
The garbage on the west side of
Chicago is now cremated in fur
mace built upon the site of stone
quarry. Fifty tons day are
dumped into the furnace with four
or more tons of soft coal and burned
up. Dead cats, decayed vegetables
old clothes, are all reduced to in.
offensive residue, though such
things as chicken feathers give off 9
troublesome odor in this new pro.
cess.
The success of the anti-vaccina,
tionists is aptly shown by the re.
suits in Zurich, Switzerland, where
for number of years, until 1883, 6
compulsory vaccination law obtain
ed, and smallpox was wholly pre-.
vented (not single case occurred
in 1922. The result was seizec
upon in the following year by tn,
Observation-Disclosures, and used agains
the necessity for any such law, ant
it seems they had sufficient influence
to cause its repeal. The death re
turns for that year (1883) showed
that for every 200 deaths two were
caused by smallpox; in 1884, ther,
were 3; in 1885, II; and in tn,
first quarter of 1886, 50.

FRIDAY, MAY IS, 1883.
PROFANITY.

One might easily come to the con-
clusion that there is some great adj
vantage to be derived from the use
of profanity, judging from the
amount used, and the social status
of some who are addicted to the
habit.
Blasphemy can be heard in every
direction here in our little city,
among all classes of labor, the me-
chanic in his shop, the accountant
at his desk, the laborer on the street,
the drayman andlongshoreman about
the wharves, and those who COM
mand and man our coasting vessels.
1t permeates through every grade
OF society and every walk of life.
There is nothing overdrawn in this,
it is patent to the most casual OBJ
server. Ask yourselves if it is not
so, and then go earnestly to work TO
suppress this growing evil.
DR.. Talmage, in the Brooklyn
Tabernacle, in the course of q lecture
on profanity, said, ga gentleman
coming from the far west sat in the
car day after day behind two per-
sons who were indulging in profan-
ity, and he made up his mind that
he would make q record of their
profanities, and at the end of two
days several sheets of paper were
covered with these imprecations,
and at the close of the journey he
handed the manuscript to one of the
persons i'll front of him. Is it
possible,' said the man that we have
uttered so many profanities in the
last few days?' 1T is replied the
gentleman. Then, said the man
who had taken the manuscript, i
will never swear again
Quoting still farther from the
same address, he says, 'The habit
grows in the community in the fact
that young people think it manly to
swear. Little children hardly able
to walk straight on the streets, yet
have enough distinctness of utter
ance to let you know that they are
damning their own souls, or damn
ing the souls of others. 1t is an
awful thing the first time the little
feet are lifted to have them set
down on the burning pavement OF
hell"
The English language, in its COM
prehensiveness, has words that ex-
press all shades of feeling, and al
degrees of energy, without resorting
to profanity; and with such a Ian
guage, replete with words express
i've of exhilaration, indignation
denunciation, scorn, sarcasm, carl
cature and wrath, there is no excus
for it. Whatever be the cause o
it, profanity is on the increase, an
if you do not know it, it is becaus
your ears have been hardened b,
the almost constant contact wit
people who are adicted to the habit
and consequently fail to notice it,
1t is reported that a japanese ha

Wel0KAl NOTES.

The water works party have re-
moved their camp location from
Waikolu to Papupule, Kalawao;
making the transit on the 9th inst.
Her Majesty, as guest OF w. r.
Meyer, Esq, was TO arrive at Kalae
on the 10th inst.
Test of the pipe line laid by
Superintendent Wilson, to convey
water from Waikolu 10 the Leper
Settlement was made on the morn
ing of the 9th inst. The result has
brought joy to the oldest inhablt-
antssat klaupapa.
Work israpidly progressing on the
new houses built here by order of
the Board of Health. Though not
gaudy, they are neat and comfort
able, and number now about 50
with about fifty more to hear from
Father Damien is the good shep-
herd of the homeless boys and
girls of the Settlement, but late
additions to their number have
greatly cramped his ability to ac-
commodate them with lodgings.
He hopes to be enabled to erect
commodious quarters for this pur-
pose in the near future.
As before stated, newspaper
project is underway here and pro-
vided permission is given by the
Board of Health, the Settlement
representative of the art preserva-
tive will appear at an early date.
A practical printer will be editor,
etc.
Dir. Peterson with his wife, chill
dren and sister-in-law, leave by the
schooner Heeia to-day for Honolulu.
His valuable services will undoubt-
edly be much appreciated in settling
complicated medical questions in
the capital.
1t is pretty near fact that the
project of supplying Kalaupapa
with water from Waikolu will be
successfully accomplished by the
end of May. About 6,000 feet OF
pipe yet remain TO be connected and
when that is done the poor long
suffering sick will enjoy the great
boon Of pure water.
The Kilauea lIou was to arrive
here on any day this week at Kalau-
papa en- route to Honolulu. To-day
is Friday (night) and she is not yet
signaled, nor is there much hope
that she will be until sometime next
week. For first class disappointer
the kilauea Hou takes the cake.
Weather here, on windward side
of the island, has been excellent for
a couple of weeks past, and is likely
to so continue.
The "tcrror" of Waikolu Valley,
a huge boar, weighing between $50
and 400 pounds, with tusks about
a inches in length, was shot and
killed on the 4th inst. by Superin-
tendent Wilson. AT the same time
a brother (probably), but younger,
was given its death wound by Frank

On Friday last, Mrs. Kahanu, q
resident of the Settlement, gave a
luau, with acconpaniments, in honor
of her Settlement birthday, i. e.,
the anniversary of her arrival in
Kalaupapa. An enjoyable time is
reported by those who were present
which goes a great way to prove the
ability of the Hawaiian to "throw dull
care.'

1t is reported that japanese has
discovered a process of laquering
ships bottoms which protect them
from marine growths, and that an
experiment of year and half in
duration has been complete sue
cess. If so, that Jap has fortune
in prospect. The most troublesome
thing about steel and iron ships is
their affinity for grasses and bar
nacles, etc. Many iron ships of
war have been sheathed outside
with, wood to permit of coppering
them and thus avoid fouling and
loss of speed.

Negotiations regarding the Behr-
ing Sea seal fishery are now going
on in London. The decision of the
Senate Committee to report unfavor-
ably on the Chamberlain Treaty
may actuate Mr.. Bayard's represen-
tatiye there to look out more sharp
ly for American interests than was
done in that case. The Alaska
Commercial Company may have
more influence at the State Depart
ment than the New England fisher
men.
