LETTER TO HEALTH BOARD.
Action at Yesterdays Meeting
Suggestion for More Members.

GENTLEMEN The time it took
Drs. Wood, Day and Emerson at
todays meeting to come to the
conclusion that although lime was
a disinfectant they would consent
to its being shipped to the other
islands; the discussion on the SUBJ
ject of fumigation of gunpowder
and kerosene oil, and DR.. Woods
inquiry as to whose lumber it was
that they wanted to ship; and the
quiet submission Of the National
Board of Health to the position
taken by the residents of the other
islands, is the only excuse L offer
for making the following sug-
gestions:
Believing, as do, that the
Board fully realizes the gravity of
the situation are doing their level
best, and deserve great credit for
their untiring efforts, and yet I do
believe that under the circum-
stances where so much depends
upon the advice of the medical
fraternity that such physicians as
Brodie, Murray, Herbert, McGrew,
Ryder, Wayson, Stangenwald,
Cooper and Howard, should be
made at least temporary members
of the Board of Health. The opin-
ions of these gentlemen are worth
having and should go on record.
Many things that are being done
may be avoided and many things
that are being undone may be
called to your attention, the res
possibility will be more evenly
distributed and the friends of the
various physicians named will feel
that they have personal represen-
tative on the Board.
Submitting the above as 1 do, in
the belief the suggestion is good
one, and congratulating you on the
effective work done so far, I am,
yours respectfully,
G. D. CHASE.

BicycleDigeSt.

The Bicycle has established
itself. 1t is an institution.
Though it has become a neces-
sity of modern life, it has not
ceased to be a source of pleas
ure and those who ride it for
business purposes still find
their greatest enjoyment in
the saddle.
Taking it for granted that
you have decided to ride, and
naturally want the best wheel
for your money, we wish to
point out to you some of the
superior features of the
BARNES SPECIAL.
One taking and distinctive
feature of the Barnes wheel,
is the method of brazing the
frame joint. When a Bicycle
is reinforced from the outside
it resembles a sore thumb
with a rag around tan apt
but homely simile. Our joint is
not a sore thumb. The con-
nections are punched from
steel formed into pieces of
such shape that they encircle
one tube, rendering it doubly
strong and project therefrom
to form a stud at the desired
angle over which the adjoining
tube can be fitted and brazed
firmly. The steel connections
are secured on each side by
secondary pieces, and all of
them brazed as one piece serve
as a pointed reinforcement to
the second tube.
Bearings First quality tool
steel hardened and ground to
such a degree that there is no
possibility of their becoming
worn. On such grounds as
these fair, frank and honora-
BILE, we solicit the patronage
of the bicycle riding public.
An examination will prove
that they are all we calm for
them.

lege before he was twenty-five years
of age, and was afterwards the
celebrated superintendent of the
Coast Survey. Mr.. Twins father
was once mayor of Pittsburgh, Pa,
a member of Congress and Minis
ter to Denmark. His mother was
connected by marriage with Robert
J. Walker, Secretary of the Treas
ury under President Polk.
Mr.. Irwin was brought up in the
mercantile business, and became a
resident of Japan in 1867 in
the service of the Pacific Mail
Steamship Company. He was ap-
pointed acting Consul General for
Hawaii in 1879, and in 1881 was
appointed Charge d'Affairs. In
1885 he was made Minister Resi-
dent. He has been engaged in
many large business matters in
Japan and has a large and infuen-
tial acquaintance with the leaders
of the Japanese government. He
speaks the vernacular language
fuently, and is married to jap
anese lady of high social rank.
Through his efforts Japanese immi-
grafton to these islands was COM
menced, and the price of labor on
the sugar plantations was quickly
reduced from high and ruinous
rates to the present prices. He
has ceased to have any connection
with the labor supply, but has
strongly urged that great care
should be taken in selecting the
laborers, if future immigration Is
needed.
HAWAIIAN CONSUL HOWARD.
B. G. Howard, recently appoint
ed Hawaiian Consul at Yokohama,
is from Boston and was connected
with Mr.. Webb's Australian line
via Honolulu from its start to the
finish. After this he became con-
nected with the Pacific Mail
Steamship Company, and was Tor
some time purser on that line until
December, 1885.
He then joined the agency OF
the Pacific Mail and the Occl-
dental and Oriental Steamship
companies at Yokohama, and has
resided there since that time. He
is now in charge of the business OF
those lines. Mr.. Howard is a
nephew of James Jackson Jarvis,
who, for several years, edited the
Polynesian in this city, and the
author of history of the Hawai-
ian Islands.
He is regarded in Japan as an
excellent business man and cap
ital manager of the steamship COM
panies. The merchants of 4oko-
hama congratulate him on his ap-
pOintment.

porting house q line OF what purported
10 be iS-ounce clay worsteds. When the
goods were received and opened, the cloth.
ier observed a suspicious dampness bout
them. They were weighed and found
to tin the scales at exactly the stipulsted
rs ounces per yard. Then the clothier
concluded to expose them to the air ana
dry them. He did so, and when ne
weig he'd them again no found that they
had meanw hile fallen of TO 1919 ounces
per ward. That is the clothier had been
buying "cheap" foreign goods and pay
ing for water.
The English manufacturer had deliber-
ately wet his light and fiimsy fabrics TO
bring them up to weight. This 10 known
as "conditioning" and Is said TO be reg.
ularly practiced in England. Ii would
yield, SO 1t is estimated, an extra profit
