J. a. Low. who has given splen
did service for the cause OF santa
ton in Palama aud Kalihi, is now
finishing up his labor by disposing
Of Waipilopilo spring and stream.
This waterway became contami-
mated soon after the appearance Of
cholera. Its Eva bank for a dis
lance of couple of miles was lined
with homes of natives. These PEG.
people had wells OH the edge of the
stream, visited and used pools and
ponds along the course and had
outhouses and pig pens near the
wells and the streams. One house
contributed thirteen cases of chol-
era to the hospital and the disease
made itself manifest from the spring
to the sea. Quite a number Of the
houses were burned. S. NJ. Damon
is providing new homes for these
people, who in the meantime have
been housed by the Government.
After the houses were disposed
OF the wells were filled and the
other nuisances abated. The spring
and stream alone remained. Mr..
Low, who had managed all the
operations, was requested to care
for the creek and its source. lie
first provided system water Tor all
the people. Now the stream is be-
ing filled and the water of the spring
will be piped beyond a point where
people will reach 1t. This work Will
be completed in a couple of days
now. 1t includes a sunbath loi
about four acres OF hali-grown rice
on one OF All ms holdings. 1t is
hoped 10 make a partial saving o.
the crop. Quite force OF natives
has been engaged i'll this work ano
they have labored most faithfully
The sight OF thousands OF fish ane
shrimp was so aggravating to the
men that Mr.. Low, simply to be oil
the safe side used few gallons o
disinfecting fluid left over iron
cleaning day. The death of thu
water denizens surprised and fright

That Body Petitions For q Mitigation
of Quarantine.
An important meeting OF the
Chamber Of Commerce was held
this morning. President f. A.
Schaefer was in the chair. F. NJ.
Swanzy acted as secretary in the
absence of J. B. Anterior. There
was a good attendance of promi-
nent business men.
President Schaefer stated the
meeting was the outgrowth Of in
formal talk among gentlemen who
believed that the strict embargo on
traffic was no longer warranted. l,
was plain that the epidemic had
ceased and that any sickness now
was merely local, not dangerous tc
others and not sufficient pretext fol
suppression of traffic.
Resolutions were presented by
Mr.. Swanzy and seconded by Mr.
Ena. The petition is in effect re-
presentation to the Board Of Health
Of the changed condition with rela
ton to the public health, and q
mention Of the hardship to mer
chants. 1t is requested that there
be permitted the shipment Of al
American and European goodi
from Honolulu, as we'll as Hawaii
an produce.
The petition will be taken up a
the Board of Health meeting thi
afternoon at 4 o'clock.

Comment of "An Old Sailor" on some
Popular faIlacies.

Popular FaIIacies.
EDITOR starr saw by yester-
days AdOerfiser that the "philo-
buckster" DOGGY had got loose
again, and am very sorry that it
happens so, for if this industry
booms periodically as heretofore, it
will soon take its place in the front
rank with the saw dust, green
goods and cheque swindles and
brighten the usual number Of old
ladies in breeches and become a
standard article in the news market.
The whole thing reminds me oil
an alteration l once witnessed be-
tween two rogues (which collected
a crowd) and gave their confreres
in rascality, an opportunity to mix
with, and pick the pockets Of the
public.
l saw by the papers also that
some Of our Solons deem the fencing
in Of the Nuuanu stream Cor the
fencing out of the disease) a neces-
sary measure. l would say, Fence
it in by all means and hang the ex-
pense.
We want to be famous, and as
we have no ancient history to speak
Of let US go laundering down the
ages as people who were quite as
wise as our old country kinsmen,
the men Of Mevagizzy in Cornwall,
who advertised their intelligence by
covering their town with fishing
nets to keep former cholera
epidemic out. The measure may
have been effective of good, and the
filibuster story may have some
foundation in fact, as THE STAE
neatly suggests, but both item:
look mouldy and belief in then
seems rather odd to an

Mr.. SUTR0 AND DOCTORS
A CHOLERA CONFERENCE.
Talk On the MISUNDERSTANDING Germs
Where the Disease .. Deadly
Mates Of India.

A dozen doctors from all parts of
the State were met together in San
Francisco recently discussing the
comma bacillus aud his relations.
Mayor Sutlo was present and he
happened to mention the name of
Pettenkofer, the great German
specialist on epidemic diseases.
"But, said DIR. Morse, "Petten-
kofer does not believe in the germ
theory Of the propagation of cholera.
He believes rather that il is of mi
asmic origin-some,hing in the sub.
soil.
That is true" said DIR. Lame of
Sacramento. "Pettenkofer went
so far in support Of his theory as to
swallow some third cultures of the
cholera bacillus. He did have an
attack of diarrhoea in consequence,
and some of the doctors said it was
cholera, but in mild form"
All present, however, were con-
verts of the Koch theory Of the
comma bacillus.
DR.. Lovelace, the health officer
of the city, remarked: Cholera is
an absolutely preventive disease.
If the right precautions are taken,
there is no danger"
DIR. Winslow Anderson has seen
good deal of the comma bacillus
in its native wild.
What do you do with a cholera
patient, doctor?" was asked of him.
Bury him, mostly" said DR..
Anderson. II have seen men taken
sick" continued the doctor, ION
the streets Of Madras and they were
dead in an hour.
"No bacillus? Oh, yes, | know
Pettenkoier says that there is nc
cholera bacillus. He banks on the
fact that he once swallowed some
of the cultures by way of expert
ment. That proves nothing. The
acids of the stomach of healthy
man will destroy the germ.
might perhaps swallow the germs
with perfect safety. That would
not prove anything. But if the
germs once get past the stomach it
is bad business.
why, if cholera germs might
not be swallowed in some cases with
impunity the whole of India would
be depopulated in a short time.
THE streams, the rivers, the
pools, the ponds in that country are
all impregnated with cholera germs
1t is risking death to taste any Of il
without boiling. Yet l have seer
the natives battle in a pool and
then, when they were through they
would brush away the green scum,
fill a bucket with the water il
which they had washed themselve.
and take it home to drink"

A TERRIBLE WEAPON.


FrightfuI Effectiveness Of the New
Maxim Gun.
The new Maxim gun, according
to latest reports, is one Of the most
terrible weapons known to man.
In appearance it is a mere toy,
weighing only twenty. five pounds.
1t can fire 500 shots a minute, so
that if every man of a regiment was
supplied with it, 10000, 900 shots
could be fired an hour, each bullet
being capable of piercing forty
inches of oak.
If even a small percentage Of the
bullets did their work deadly work
war on large scale would be i'm
possible and armies would cease to
meet, So long as the trigger is held
back the gun will fire automatically
as long as ammunition is supplied.
When the trigger is released the
firing ceases. The gun can be un.
limbered and fired within fifty eight
seconds of the word Of command.
1t will prove OF especial value in
a mountainous country, where a
few well placed guns could wipe
out an army. II is no exaggeration
to say that 100 men armed with the
gun could NOW down 10, 600 caval-
rymen with ease. Each bullet
would pierce the bodies Of six men
and its muzzle can be moved like
the end Of a garden hose.

The Insane Asylum Inmate Taken to the
Hospital.
The second insane asylum in
mate adjudged to have cholera
gives his name as William Henry
Harrison Hiram Wheeler. He is
quite a character. just crazy enough
to be at times interesting and gen.
orally obstinate. With others he
has been in strict quarantine since
last Saturday. On one occasion
before, lie assaulted an attendant
who tried to stop him from drink
ing hydrant water. For this he
was locked in a chair till he sur
rendered. Wheeler was writing
the Bible. He said the accepted
edition was full of mistakes. Be-
sides this he had constructed a
model of warship to demolish the
navies of the world. Wheeler
claimed to be the son of George
Washington. The patient has been
very contrary at the hospital. He
refused to swallow medicine.
Though aged, the man had quite a
rugged constitution.
1t is a strange thing that this
man, who is rewriting the Bible,
cannot write at all. He makes the
printed characters and likely never
had great familiarity even with
these.

upward and away from the horses
at an angle of about As degrees.
As soon as all the horses are lin

NUUANU STREAM.


A Government Oficiai Talks Frankly of
Ways and Means.
at is going to cost a pretty
penny if it's DONE" said a Govern
ment official last evening. f, He re-
ferred to the proposed street along
the Waikiki bank of Nuuanu stream
from King street to Vineyard.
Property claims already i'll, as |
understand it, foot up $4,000, with
more to come. This cannot be re-
duced more than thirty per cent
and then there will be proceedings
in court. The matter Of expense is
becoming a really serious consider
alton. After paying for all this
property the walls come in, and
they are not going to be a present.
1t will be we'll to take up the
scheme suggested in THE STAR
lately. If the wall for the Waikiki
side of the proposed conduit is
placed in mid stream and the other
wall on land owned by the Gov
eminent, there will be great saw
ing even if some excavation is re-
quired for the new channel. If
confined as proposed, the stream
should make a new road for itself
between St. Louis college and King
street. In any event the stream
should be deepened to ten feet up to
Smith street. This would allow a
free play of fresh sea water each
day and it might prove the cheap
est and an entirely safe and sound
solution of all our difficulties in
connection with the troublesome
water course"

Ending of the Useful Life of Princess
Poomaikeiani.
Another of the old aliis has
passed away. Princess Poomaike-
lani, sister of Queen Dowager Ka-
piolani, died at her home in Kalihi
valley shortly before 6 o'clock yes
terday evening. The deceased was
taken off suddenly, as she was in
good health and spirits mp to a few
minutes of her death. She. was
sitting in chair when she felt pains
in her chest. She was lifted into
bed, where she died. A telephone
message to the Board of Health Of
fee brought out DIR. Wayson, but
when he arrived it was too late.
Poomaikelani was about fifty-nine
years Of age at the time OF her
death. For over ten years she has
been suffering with paralysis in the
right leg. Notwithstanding her Grip
pied condition she was about con-
siderable and she attended services
at the st. Andrews cathedral until
few years ago when she became
worse. Recently she was confined
to her home, being deprived of the
use of her limbs. She was a pious
woman and was we'll liked by all
who knew her. Deceased was I'M
assuming, being generally seen in
her own carriage with a single
horse driving out to Waikiki. The
body was removed to the residence
of her sister at Honuakaha last
night.
The funeral took place from the
residence of Queen Dowager at 2:3o
o'clock this afternoon, the following
to the grave being large. Bishop
Willis performed the ceremonies.
Deceased was at one time repres-
entative Of the crown on the Island
Of Hawaii. On account of her for
mer prominence in governmental
affairs the authorities rendered the
use of the band and Of an escort oil
honor of police. These were ac-
| cepted.
