The Board of Health held its
regular meeting at 3 O'Clock yester-
day afternoon. There were very
large number of business men pres
ent, besides a full attendance of
members of the Board and medical
fraternity.
President Smith announced that
the steamer Kilauea Hou had landed
freight along the Hamakua coast,
in some places meeting with difficult
ties. The people at Laupahoehoe
had very little food. Mr.. Smith
asked that coal oil be added to the
list Of articles that can be shipped,
the article being very scarce OH the
other side OF this island.
1t was carried that coal oil be Al
lowed, provided if taken from the
kerosene warehouse to the wharf.
On motion Of Mr.. Waterhouse it
was decided to allow a consignment
Of machinery now on the bark J..
c. Glade belonging to Hanamaulu,
Kauai, to be taken to its destina-
ton. There was no danger of
contagion from machinery.
The question Of sending coin to
the other islands to pay off the
plantation hands was discussed.
The coin was steamed at the Iron
Works, and Mr.. Warehouse saw
no reason for not allowing it to go.
Rufus Spalding said if money
was not sent there was no use OF
sending anything else. The mep
must have money.
A letter was read from Chinese
planters requesting the Board to al
low the shipment Of tanned
skins, wire cloth, powder, caps and
shot to the plantations on this isl
and.
Mr.. Waterhouse favored allowing
the articles to be shipped as they
were necessary,
The request of the planters was
granted.
Mr.. Giffard announced thai
Paauhau plantation was unable to
grind for want of lime. There
would be loss of several thousand
dollars unless supply Of lime was
shipped there.
There was some discussion about
lime being essential OH the othel
islands. President Smith was sur
prised to hear that any lime was
on hand.
The following articles were finally
added to the shipping list; Lime
coal oil, cement and machine oil
The matter Of adding lumber
was deferred.
Permission was granted the
steamer Likelike to 60 to Paauhol
and other ports with freight and re
turn with sugar. The steamer hac
been in quarantine nine days.

THE PATIENTS FAULT.


An Incident showing Difficulties of
Cholera Fighters.
Up at the headquarters of the
Committee of Ten last evening Jas.
A. Low recounted an incident
which threw a strong side light ON
the work of inspection. Mr.. Low
is in charge of one of the largest
districts. Nearly all of his assist
ants are natives. He knows them
we'll. From his acquaintance with
Hawaiians on the Eva side of Nu-
uanu stream he was able to enlist a
capable staff.
Yesterday one of the "subs" re-
ported to Mr.. Low: Everybody
in my apana we'll except one native.
He has pains in his head and a
cough. Perhaps he has whooping
cough like my wife. He wants
medicine for his trouble. l gave
him some cholera mixture.
Mr.. Low notified headquarters Of
a suspicious case" and soon after
visited the sick man. The latter
was bent over in sitting posture
with hands on his stomach. He
jumped to his feet and began to de-
clare he was not sick. Being ques.
toned closely he admitted he was
ill, and further that for two days
he had been suffering from the
symptoms of that disease" The
Health Boards attention was al
once called to the case. The mar
frankly said: 81 made a mistake
l told the inspector a lie. l wa:
afraid. Before receiving the chol
era mixture from the sub-inspectol
the man had clearly developed tn,
malady.

There is China boy over on
Kauai who has great head on his

evening. ''He is an humble hand
at rice culture. but has genius for a
better occupation. In the middle
of the fields he has built a sentry
box on stills. In various directions
he has put up contrivances to
brighten the rice birds. These con-

"If the citizens will only CO.
operate" said sub-inspector, last
evening, "the work of the sub-in-
spector can be made less difficult
and much more effective. Many
people do not seem to understand
at all that our orders are to see
every room and every person at a
place twice daily. A man engaged
in his work does not feel like
forcing him. into many of the
houses on his beat. 1t is not right
that he should be compelled to use
authority or make argument or
long explanations"

THE STAR has been enabled to
get pretty well at the particulars of
the last voyage of the Kilauea Hou,
a Wilder steamer dispatched by Mr..
Wight for Maui and Hawaii with
the approval of the National Board
of Health. The vessel had been
quarantined and fumigated accord
ing to regulations. More than that,
she had on a previous trip landed
laborers from the BeIgic on both
Hawaii and Maui, and no trouble
had come OF it.
On arrival at Olowalu, Maui, on
the up trip, the authorities refused
fatty and without argument to al
low landing OF freight. They further
announced that every port on Maui
was tabu.
The steamer proceeded to Ha-
wall in heavy weather and anchor
ed off Mahukona. Upon the Kill
auea Hou being telephoned a
meeting of the sanitary committee
and citizens was held in Hilo. A
resolution was adopted forbidding
the landing of any freight OH
Hawaii. Regardless of this, the
steamer left Mahuk ona, proceeded
to Laupahoehoe and began to dis
charge.
A message came from Deputy
Sheriff Williams at Hilo to make
the Kilauea Hou stop unloading and
compel them to take back
aboard all that had been brought
ashore. The consignees and the
people of Laupahoehoe jumped into
the breach and insisted on having
their goods, as they were out OF
provisions. Delivery was made
under protest of the officers.
Learning of the opposition from
Hilo, managers of plantations ant
citizens at other ports urged Capt
Weir to come OH with their freight
They represented they were in sore
need of the supplies for themselve:
and of grain for their stock.
After no end of serious trouble
all the Hawaii freight except foi
Honomu was landed. Mr.. Kinney
manager at Honomu, wanted hi.
goods, but was dissuaded from ask
