A Small Boy With Heroic Appetite.
On the Avenue their holds forth freckled-
faced youth of perhaps eight years who is en-
gagged in the sweet-violet trade. His height
is about three feet but it conceals ten-foot
appetite. 'Good heavens % exclaimed a
lunch-room keeper a day or two ago as the
door slowly opened and the small flower dealer
appeared. 'If this isn't the twentieth time
to day that boy has come in for lunch" But
the exclamation went unheeded by the little
fellow. He quietly laid down the tray con-
tanning his stock in trade, and drew chair
up to the counter filed with rows of pies,
sandwiches, etc. He climbed on the chair, and,
carefully scrutinizing the wares, selected the
largest piece of pie and called for mug of
milk.
"That young man." went on the lunch
dealer "ought to be called the 'Lunch-room's
Friend; or, the Gorgeous Appetite. Heknocks
the feats of Dickens's Fat Boy out of sight.
pledge you my word, he comes in more than
dozen times every day and calls for mug
OF milk and piece of pie, to which his de-
votion is unswerVing He drags chair up to
the counter, and first considers what will best
tempt his perpetual appetite, and, what seems
to be still more to the purpose, which is the
largest piece of pie. 1t seems to me that
whenever he makes a sale he sets off in hot
haste to my place and invests both profits and
principal in the eating line. His business
must be exceptionally good, too.

Those Garbage Carts.

Mr.. EDToR-SIR: In all cities of the
United States and Europe where the
authorities have system of removing
the garbage, nightsoil, ETC., it is the
practice to do so between the hours of
say II o'clock P. NJ. and or, at the
latest, O'Clock A. NJ. Here, however,
in the so-called Paradise of the Paci-
fic, "a paradise of dusty roads and
NANCY dogs-the olfactory organs of the
citizens are greeted at any time of the
day with gusts of unsavory smells from
the garbage carts, which appear to take
leisurely round of some of the chief
streets of the town. To-day, at noon,
the writer had the pleasure of following
in the wake of two of these carts, loaded
with decayed vegetable matter and other
rotten stuff that gave forth deadly
odour like that of stagnant cesspool.
Surely the Board of Health, if they have
any regard for the health and comfort of
the inhabitants, ought to put stop to
such an unsanitary practice-a practice
which would not be tolerated for one
moment in any town where the citizens
their own municipal affairs
and were not content to let affairs in
general be run by an irresponsible bureau
of political favorites. ANTI-TYPHoID.

The Pacto1us Chinese Again.

The PacfoIus Chinese Again.
Mr.. EDITOR: AS it appears from Mr..
Aseu's letter in the Bulletin that he con-
siders himself unjustly represented in
the GAzETTE's report OF the Chinese
trouble in Kohala, will you allow me to
invite his particular attention to the fol-
lowing clause near the beginning OF the
report in question, viz. " The course OF
events thereafter, as nearly as they could
be ascertained from various sources, ap-
pears to have been about as foiloWS
fills WIS :, distinct disclaimer on the
part OF your correspondent to v0uch Tor
the correctns SIS OF the detail S OF the report
or for the omission OF any fact which had
not come to his knowledge, although he
had endeavored to get true version OF
the case.
The venture - further down The re-
port, that ''the foregoing statements Will
be fully substantiated on any honest IN
vestigation," was intended particularly
to apply to the occurrences which took
place after the Cinnamon had lett the
Court House, although this may not
have been made very clear In the report
itself, which was by no means written in
spirit unfriendly TO Mr. Aseu. and If
the criticism at the end was unjust, he
will excuse it as having been made on
the supposition that the reports concern
ing his having broken his word to appear
at the Court House, like the reports that
he had left his house, were true.
1t does not appear to the writer that
the main drift of the story has been con-
tradicted. X.
