This Is q Nuisance.

1t may be necessary for the good
and welfare of the National Guard
to practice military tactics, but
there is such a thing as OVERRIDING
it. Surely more suspicious time
could be selected for such practice
than the early morning hours.
Company F has the reputation
of being among the best drilled
companies of the military, but resi-
dents along King, Alakea and
Beretania streets, the route used
by the company shortly after day
light, complain that the company's
high standard of excellence is Sc
cured at the expense of their inter-
rupted peaceful slumbers. 1t is
all right enough for the military
companies to take advantage of
the cool, early morning hours in
which to drill, but it would seem
that they could get along with less
drum beating when passing
through the residence portion of
the city. There is no divided
opinion as to the present course
being a nuisance of the greatest
degree.

QUARANTINE ONLY IN NAME.
Absurd and Arbitrary Action of the
Health Board Agent.

Cholera is commencing to spread
again in China. A great number
of cases were reported when the
Peking left Hongkong.
An agent of the Board of Health
heard about this yesterday, so he
decided to place a quarantine on
the steamer. He would not allow
any one on board, with the excep-
ton of agents of the steamer, naval
officers, hackmen and baggagemen.
Newspaper reporters were barred,
as usual. The cabin passengers of
the steamer were allowed to come
ashore and remain over night, if
they pleased. The foregoing pro-
gram is what the Board of Health
calls quarantine"
A prominent citizen said yester-
day: "The annoying rules
made by the Board of
Health seem ridiculous at
times. The City of Picking comes
in with a clean bill of health, and
they say that no one shall board
her. AS a matter of fact, they
have no right to give such an
order their authority ceases when
the port physician allows the
steamer to enter the harbor. If
she has disease ON board, her place
is in the roadstead, not inside.
eff the port physician passes her
as clean, she comes inside, and
then Captain Ward, or any other
captain, has the say who shall or
shall not board his steamer"
There is no objection to enforc-
ing strict quarantine in the inter
est of pub ic health, but no favors
should be shown.

BANANA FLOUR.
Likely to Develop Into a Very I'm
portant Industry.

A good deal of attention has been
drawn of late to the use of the bans-
ma as a source of flour or meal, and
though such an application is by no
means new, or the discovery modern,
it seems not at all unlikely that
banana -four is an article that has a
prospect of great development in the
near future. Wherever the banana
or plantsin thrives, the fruits, when
dry, are converted into meal, and
used for making cakes, buildings,
and for various other uses in cookery.
An effort is being made to establish q
factory for the manufacture Of bsns-
ma meal.
As to the use of banana -four for
brewing purposes, Mr.. Kshlke, one
of the best known manufactures of
yeast In Germany, writes in this con-
nection: Banana flour, without
doubt, from its richness In starch and
its good flavor. is particularly suit
able for the manufacture of yeast.
This -four is easily rendered sac
charine. The yeast obtained by add.
ing banana flour to the other ingre-
dents has a good color, all the re-
quisite properties of an excellent
class of yeast, and more over keeps
well. The alcohol obtained from it
leaves nothing to be desired, so that
this flour may be introduced as an
article of commerce, and employed
without any special preparation.
Satisfactory experiments have also
been made In some breweries, where
20 per cent. of malt has been replac-
ed by the flakes and -four of bananas.
The flavor of beer Was not altered,
and the quantity of liquid was in
creased, aud the malt was replaced
by less expensive substance. Ex-
periments are being made in which
the proportion of banana -four is
increased" -Ex.

MORE BENEFICIAL INSECTS.
Prof. Koebele Sends a Large Num-
Der by City of Peking.

Commissioner Marsden received
by the City of Picking from Prof.
Koebele, now in japan, a large
number of beneficial insects, chief
among them being the Chilochorus
Renipustulatus, a very valuable
beetle that will feed upon nearly
every scale, even the young of
Ceroplastes, as well as aphids.
Regarding mosquitoes, Prof. Koe-
belle enquiries if the noise of frogs
would prove a nuisance in the ISL
ands. There are millions of them
in the rice fields of Japan, and in
consequence only few mosquitoes
as compared with Honolulu and
the islands.
The Professor regrets not being
able to send a supply of bats by
the Picking, but will do so by next
steamer from the Orient. The bats
are energetic enemies of the Japan
csc beetle.
Professor Howard, chief entom-
ologist of the United States, urged
that Professor Koebele visit China
before returning to Hawaii, that
being the oldest country from
which scale or injurious insects
eminated, and where their enemies
may also be found.
Commissioner Marsden has mott
fed Professor Koebele to spend two
months in China in quest of addi
tional beneficial insects for the
islands.

Special to the Indianapolis Journal.
CRAWFORDSVILLE. Ind. Dec. 14.-w.
L Baboitt. living in this city, has just dis
covered the whereabouts of his mother.
from whom he was stolen thirty-two years
ago. His parents came from England and
located in Chicago. where W.. L. Rabbit
was born. His father was a lumber dealer
and an ATHEIST. which finally led to a d.
vorce from his wife. One day the husband
stole his son from the home OF his former
wife and took him to a relative at Sabula,
Ia. where the boy remained until his father
removed to Michigan, when he took his son
along. In the meantime his mother had ex-
hausted her means in searching for her son,
but to no avail. and she went TO reside with
relatives at Niles. Mich, and later TO Guy
his father. and as he grew up he learned
about his having been stolen from his moth
er. His father said his mother was dead.
He had finally concluded to find his mother,
and when sixteen years old he ran away
from home, but his father got him back
the boy left his father, whom he has not
seen 70 this day. The young man went to
his relatives in Iowa. and there he OBJ
tanned a clew concerning his mother. He
then returned 10 Chicago. where a wealthy
friend helped him in his search. They ad-
finally married and settled in Niles. Mich,
removing TO this city. and Is
