letter enclosing a letter to you from
natives here, asking for Ayers sar
saparilla. Having noticed in the re
port of the meeting of the board o
health, last week, that the application
had been made, brought with me
one dozen of the sarsaparilla.
As rule, do not prescribe patent
medicines to the people here, chiefly
on account of the expense; but as ]
understand that only n few persons
have been asking for this preparation,
I make an exception in this instance.

His Excellency ]. A. KING, Minister
of Interior, Honolulu.
SIR:-In accordance with instruc-
tions received from Marshal Hitch
cock, now beg to state that the build
ing on Cocoanut Island can be put in
good condition for $500. In little
while more it will almost require
double the amount as the remaining
shingles will most all have blown
away.
Should Your Excellency authorize
me to have the building repaired,
will do my very best to keep the place
in order, and will see that no acts of
vandalism are committed.
Yours respectfully,
GEO. II. WILLIAMS,
Sheriff of Hawaii.

sing, and Agent c. B. Reynolds.
The minutes of the previous meet
ing were read and approved.
President Smith announced that
the board had received from Wash
ington the Annual Report of the
Supervising Surgeon General of the
Marine Hospital Service of the Uni
ted States for the fiscal year Of 1885,"
Weekly abstract Of Sanitary Reports
for 1892 SO. - and other tracts relating
to sanitary matters.
President Smith brought mp the
matter Of the bids made for drugs to
be furnished to the board of health
by local firms. He introduced the
matter by reading the following let
tiers from local firms:
HONOLULU, sept. IS, 1898.
Mr.. c. b. REYNOLDS,
Executive Board Health.
SIR We hereby enter a protest
against awarding the board of health
contract to Messrs. Hollister Il CO.,
for reasons as follows:
In regard to item of alcohol, we
claim that it is irregular and unprece-
dented, as they have submitted a
price on alcohol in bond instead of
alcohol duty paid.
This modifies the whole tender, as
they assume no risk of increased du-
ties, and can therefore figure closer on
remaining articles enumerated.
On the other hand, we submitted
price on alcohol, as duty paid, as has
always been customary, thereby as
sumiiSg the risk of having the duties
increased.
From the fact that we assumed that
risk, we did not figure as close on the
other items as we might have done
had there been no risk.
Consequently, we claim that, in
this way, the item of alcohol affects
each and every item on the list.
Submitting the above protest to
your consideration, we are yours res
pectfully,
HoBRoN, NEWMAN K Co., I'D,

DEPARTMENT OF FINANCE,
HONOLULU, H, l., Sept. %, 1893.

| HONOLULU ii. LIZ sept. -, 1898.
SIR: l am directed by His Excel
lency S. NJ. Damon, minister Of
finance, to respectfully ask that from
and after the first day of October next
and until further notice, you limit
your expenditures to actual necessi-
ties in the item of supplies, and only
then upon the consultation and APP
prevail of the chief OF your department.
If it is possible to reduce your cleri-
cal force, or to curtail the expense of
pay rolls, items that appear to con-
stitute large proportion of monthly
expense, it would assist this depart
ment in meeting. its obligations, and
have a salutary influence on the pub
lie credit.
1t will continue to be necessary for
estimates of requirements for the en-
suing months, and lists of unpaid
items for the past month, to be sent in.
Very respectfully yours,
w. G. ASHLEY,
Secretary, Minister of Finance.
Board of Health.
President Smith stated that
monthly statements had been made
as required by law. He had talked
over the large number of employees
in the department of the board with
the ministry, and had asked Minister
King if he could suggest any reduc-
tions. The bulk of the expense was at
the leper settlement, where it would
be found hard to economic as the
expenses were now az low as posi-
BILE. He asked if the members of the
board could suggest any further re
auctions. Minister King has not yet
suggested any reductions The DIR.
Goto treatment was about the only
point that now offered chance of
reduction. This he would not advise,
as the treatment was helping the
lepers, although it was still an open
question as to whether it would cure
leprosy or not.
Mr.. Lansing asked question as to
the expenses of the settlement.
President Smith replied that the
rations could be calculated to GER
tainty at so much a head. The ex-
penses of the different stations under
the segregation law were charged to
the board. He could not see where,
with regard to the public interest.
any employee of the board at pres
ent could be allowed to go.
After further discussion it was or.
dered that list of the employees of
the board of health be furnished by
the secretary to the minister of the
interior.
A letter from a native woman
named Loe requesting that her boy
be allowed to be kept at the Kslihi
receiving station for year was re-
fused.
President Smith stated there was
matter he wished to call attention to. !
He had received letter from DR..
Herbert asking that the government |
allow him to draw thirteen gallons |
of alcohol, previously used for en-
balming at the Waikiki hospital. |
In connection with DIR. Herbert's |
letter letter was read from Hollis

ing into the character OF persistent
meddler with the legislative department
of the government. He has made it
known to congress that he objects to the
attachment of any amendment what
ever to the Chinese registration extern
sion bill. This declaration has of course
acted like wet blanket upon some Of
the weakened senators who favored a
provision to photograph the registering
coolies 30 as to secure their identifica-
tion beyond doubt. 1t is now believed
that when the bill is passed test Gaze
will be brought at once before
the supreme court, and that as
that body is now constituted the law
will be declared unconstitutional. The
idea is that Justice Harlan, who
was absent when the Geary bill was un-
der consideration before the court, is OF
the opinion that the law is not valid
and that the rscently appointed Justice
Hornblower will reflect Cleveland'a

IT HAS been developed, in the course
of the trial of Evans for the Tovey mur-
der, that the detectives and officers have
resorted to the most outrageous means
to extort confession from the prisoner.
A constable testi6es that he had slips
printed to resemble the cuttings from
newspapers giving false and misleading
reports eff the declarations OF witnesses
Evans depended upon to prove an alibi,
and that whisky, opium and other drugs
were administered to the unfortunate
man to further weaken an intellect
which was not bright at its best. They
laid all sorts of snares to entrap him
into admissions, and passed bogus letters
into him to lead him into making a con-
fession upon which they could convict
him of the horrible crime. If Evans has
been made the victim of such shameful
practices, he is to be pitied, and the Of
ficers of the law who resorted to them
ought to be pilloried.

not be fair to the taxpayers OF this
county and state to make them bear the
charge disappearing these alien juven'
lies. To send them back to the life
they have chosen, is to make certain
criminals OF them. What to do with
these lost waits is a most perplexing
problem, and we are not sstonished
that the judge lie greatly exercised over
it. The United States is building up a
great navy and will require vast num-
ber of sailors to man the new ships.
Why would it not be we'll for the gov
eminent to place several training ships
for boys on this coast? That would
solve this perplexing problem.

Los ANGELES comes to the front again

transactions in the principal cities oi
the United States. She is the only city
in the whole list that shows an increase.
With the eingle exception of week
ago, our city has maintained the unique
position in these reports of an increase
for the past ten weeks. A showing
like this is certainly strong evidence Of
the sound financial condition and the
healthy advance in business activity oi
the commercial capital OF Southern
California. These reports have figured
regularly in every newspaper in the

stability of Los Angeles at time when

ciees in vocal music. Last year an in :
finite amount of mirth was provoked BY
the infantile and ridiculous paraphrases
that had been invented by the music
teacher upon we'll known nursery ditties.
Indeed, when that marvellous stroke OF
genius was exhibited of changing the
familiar lines of Twinkle, twinkle,
little star" to the beautiful couplet of
Twinkle, twinkle, little bat,
How wonder what you're at"
A universal roar went up from all
quarters. We do not know whether the
present regime is pursuing the same
method of vocal instruction as that OF
last year. But we submit that II the
children are to be taught to sing rigma-
role ditties the art might be put to
more practical use. As large proper
tion OF the pupils will in the course OF
time become interested in fruit culture
we would suggest the propriety OF put
ting the technical names of the great
variety of enemies of the fruit pests to
some simple and easy music. If this
were successfully accomplished the or
chardists of the future would have these
difficult names 90 impressed on the
memory that they would come "trip
pingly off on the tongue" and the vocal
lessons would be of great practical SER
vice to the scholars. How would few
little rhymes like the following 60 If set
to music?
Oh, vedslia cardinals.
And rhizobius ventralis,
Mhen you show your insect malice
To the gobbling hateful scalus,
Wipe 'em out.
And again:
For the orcus mum eralis
And the gorging arcataiis
And the rhizobus dorsalis
Before they finally corral us,
Let US shout,
We humbly submit to the august
body that rules over the educational
depart ment that it would greatly add to
the practical tuition of the pupils and
originate a pleasant diversion in the
music of the schools if they would en-
gage either the ingenious poet of the
Express or the gearing songster OF the
Times to versify the parasitic nomen-
clature of the enemies OF the fruit pests,
and adapt the lines to the simple tunes
warbled by the classes.

THE cold-blooded assassination of

SAN Francisco, Oct. 28.-The City OF
New York, which struck on the rocks
while passing out of the Golden Gate
Thursday night, lie, as far as can he
known, resting easily upon the spur
which penetrated her bottom. The sea
is comparatively smooth, but the tide,
which runs rapidly about her, renders
the work of the divers in, their attempts
to ascertain the amount of damage done
to the ship, difficult. 1t is thought,
however. that, should the attempt to
pull her off tomorrow prove successful,
the damaged sustained can be repaired.
The work OF tightening her cargo is now
nearly completed. Tugs are making
regular trips to the wreck, carrying
pumping machinery and wrecking de-
vices, which will all be brought into
play at high tide tomorrow, when the
final effort will be made to rescue the
ship from her perilous position.

CHICAGO, Oct. 2S.-"Yo Tambien
wins!" and howl Of joy went up from
10000 throats at Hawthorne today as
the magnificent mare went under the
wire in an one and one-eighth mile
race, with Lamplighter something less
than block behind when the time
keepers snapped at 2:01A.
The great triangular race between the
two horses named and Clifford had been
postponed, as the lstter's owWr
thought the track too slow for his colt.
The postponement was far from pleasing
to the people who had gone to the track
to see this particular race, and it was
finally decided to let Yo Tambien and
Lamplighter go one and an eighth miles
at the fourth race on the card, for a
purse of $2500 and entrance fees of $1,000
each.
Lamplighter had many hearty sup
porters, but they were in the minority.
Betting on Yo Tambien was z to 10,
while Lamplighter was readily taken at
even money.
Shortly after $3.50. Lamplighter, with
Fred Taral, 119 pounds up, came past
the grand stand and was greeted with
rousing cheers. A moment later O roar
of applause greeted Yo Tambien, under
Sammy Doggett at the same weight.
Promptly at $3.50 the red flag went
down and the two great runners
started. AS they flashed past the grand
stand Yo Tsmbien was half q length
ahead, and staid there all the way
around. At the half Lamplighter got
nearer the leader, but the latter gained
more than she had lost in the stretch.
AS Yo Tambien neared the wire she
drew farther and farther away from the
eastern crack, until at the finish there
was fully three lengths between the
two horses.
