House OF Representatives.

A communication from the Senate
notifying Representatives that the bill
relating to estrays had passed third
reading in that body was read.
Rep. Winston, from the Committee
on Commerce, recommended striking
out all of Section 1, in Senate Bill No.
%, relating to fire limits.
Rep. Hanuna offered resolution ask
ing that a committee OF five be appiont-
ed from the Legislature to visit the
leper settlement and see how things are
going on there.
Rep. Bond wanted the views of other
members. He was not aware that any
thing at the settlement needed ilvesti-
CATION.
Rep. Kamauoha said petitions had
been presented from persons who want
ed to take the Goto treatment, and these
petitions had been referred to the San
itary Committee. He thought it advis-
able that they go up and see to the
needs of the people. Questions have
arisen regarding treatment OF patients
by Government physicians, and the re-
ply from the President of the Board of
Health has always been that medicines
are provided but Hawaiians do not go
to them. In a previous Legislature
complaints were read and committee
of thirteen was appointed, and | was
one of the number. We found some of
the complaints just, and 1 believe we
had them rectified. A committee of
nine should be appointed now to 90 up
with the Board of Health on the next
visit and adjourn the House until they
return
Rep. Rycroft said he had heard of
only one petition, and If there is any
thing wrong the Board of Health will
investigate il. There are eminent men
going up there occasionally, and the
Catholic priests and sisters there who
would not permit wrongs to 90 on with
out reporting them.
Rep. Kamauoha-The Legislature ap-
propriates large sums of money to be
spent at the settlement, and We have
only the words of the Board of Health
as to the proper expenditure of the
funds.
Rep. Rycroft-If had any idea that
those people, isolated as they are, were
being ill-treated, / would be the last
person to object to any measures for
their relief. AS to the bath houses.
which the honorable members SAYS are
neened, bring in bill for their relief
and let them be established IL they are
necessary.
Rep. Hanuna-Besides the petitions
have received private letters to the eff
feet that the improvements which the
Board of Health says are being made
are not. / am informed that medical
ted baths are allowed one class at the
station, while others less fortunate are
refused them. The Attorney General
thought it would be good thing for us
to investigate the affairs at the Insane
Asylum, and we did so and found every
thing all right. He wants scrutiny; he
should not refuse to sanction the ap-
pointment Of committee to visit the
settlement-say Saturday night and
return Sunday night, and no time
would be lost.
Rep. Rycroft-The honorable member
going with the Board Of
Health and now he wants to go on a
Saturday night.
Rep. Hanuna-The Board of Health
could arrange to leave on Saturday
night, so that the talk about waste of
lime is nonsense
Rep. Bond-The President of the
Board of Health is present, and | think
It best that he be informed that a reso-

STORY OF JAMESON's FIGHT.

Captain Holden, who was an officer in the
Chartered Company's Corps. and has just rss
turned to Church House, Windsor, the resi-
OF Colonel Holden, gave in all interview with
our correspondent, IA narrative Of the march
or DE-. Jameson's troops into the Transvaal.
The invading column, according to Captain
H0lden's accOunt, consisted II two uetach-
ments, the Chartered troops leaving Pltsani
at dusk on the Sunday evening, and the Be
cnnanaland Police marching from MafekinG
and joining them at daybreak Oh the follow
ing day. The total strength OF the force
amounted to about 900 officers and troopers.
having with them eight Maxims. one II, and
two 7.pOnnder guns. The little force, which
Captain Holden states had no intention Of
firing upon the Beers during its advance,
first came into touch with the latter on the
Tuesday night, when they were opposed
by about forty or fifty Beers. They
were driven back, and the march con-
timed with never more than an hour or an
hour and a halls rest till Wednesday after
noon, when the Chartered scouts were sud
denly fired upon by Beers concealed in
rifle pits on the slope of a hill. and a mine on
It's summit The captain of the scouts and
several troopers were taken prisoners. DR..
JaneSOn'S troops who made excellent shell
practice, succeeded IN turning the position
Of the opposing force, and then lAagersd
up. The Beers, who eventually numbered
between 5000 and 1900, and fought under
every possible cover, their horses during the
contest being turned loose knee-lIaltered, re-
newed the attack, ana poured hot fire all
night into the lager On the thursday DR..
Jameson'S men prIed to ger round the enemy
and move towards Johannesburg, but were
unsuccessful and eventually we're obliged to
surrender. Captain Holden is of opinion that
the Beers are Lot such good shots, as he
believes they lost over two hundred men dur
ing the battle. The firing Of DR.. J"mesOn's
men quite s~qualled that of the former, who,
as we'll as their horses, could rarely be seen

highly Of the kind and humane treatment Of
the prisoners by the Doors.

on and succeeded in wounding the serpent in
in many places. The constructor suddenly
assumed the offensive, for rapidly uncoiling
itself from the first boar, it twisted itself
around the body Of the one which had been
attacking it. While the beast was plunging
and struggling to release itself the snake
lowered its head. The boar made a last plunge
and seized the serpent's head in its jaws and
crushed it fiat. Then the coils loosoned and
the attendants dragged the dead body out of
the cage. The two boars fell exhausted to
the floor, and lay there for nearly an hour
hardly able to do more than breathe.-Ibid.

FIGHT ETWEE BOARS AND
BOA CONSTRUCTOR.

Under date New York, yesterday, Dalziel's
Agency sends out the following story: A re-
markabl~ fight between "a boa constructor,
thirteen feet in length, and two wild boars
occurred on Saturday. The former had been
placed in the storage tank for animals des-
tined for the collection in Central Park. The
boa managed to escape from his box. and
slid between the bars of a large cage contain
ing two Texas boaIs. The mon in charge of
the animals heard the bears making a fearful
noise, and ON running to the spot found the
snake had already coiled itself round one of
them, and was slowly squeezing it, while the
other boar. in q state of great excitement,
was swapping at the reptiles bead. The men
attacked the constructor with iron bars to in
duce it to release it's captive, but cosld make
no impression upon it. The snake kept its
head high in the air, with it's tongue darting
rapidly in and out as it watched its assail-
ants, its muscles meanwhile tightening round
the body of it. prisoner. The other boar
fought bravely for the rescue of its cOmpani-

An Egyptian Bride.

At the marriage in Egypt Of Princess
Minet Hanen, sister Of the khedive,
the bride came in preceded by a
woman musician all dressed in white
satin. She was supported by two
bridesmaids. Her gown was Of white
satin, but one could scarcely see the
material because Of the heavy gold
embroidery. Her neck and arms were
simply covered with diamonds, and on
her head she wore high crown Of
precious stones, to which was attach
ed her veil of silk and gold. On either
side Of her head were ornaments of
gold and Jewels, with threads of gold
reaching to the ground, of such weight
that the bridesmaids had to carry
them. She was one Of the most beau
tiful women ever seen, and when she
was seated on the throne 1t was pic
ture. She and her surroundings were
beautiful beyond description. When
she retired the khediva stood sLn the
throne and threw newly-coinad ploney
among the ladies for luck.

popular in Venice because Of the man

quest to lend the Rezzonico Palace for

ciety Of Croce Rosa, a charitable as
sociation to which belong some of the
noblest Italian ladies. The fete was
organized on scale worthy of it's set
ting. Nothing like 1t has been seen in
Venice for 3 century. The palace has
been finely restored throughout by Mr..
Browning, the walls Of the drawing
room covered with rich brocades
woven purposely in Venetian looms.
On this occasion the great ball room
was the center Of attraction. Its cell.

Elephants Horror Of Rats.

That elephants are afraid Of rodents
was conclusively demonstrated to-day
at Barnum & Bailey's winter head
quarters at Bridgeport, in the presence
Of a car load Of New York newspaper
men, and couple Of Yale professors.
The sixteen huge pachyderms in the
elephant barn were first securely
chained to prevent their breaking
loose, and then an attendant brought
in O small rat tied by it's tail, at the
end Of long string. About half the
elephants exhibited Indifference, while
the remainder trumpeted and tugged
at their chains with every evidence of
terror as the rat was successfully
brought to them. Some of the big
towards made efforts to leap in the
mir to avoid contact with the dreaded
little rodent. In their fright they gave
vent to sounds of agonized fright pitt
ful to hear. Even after the rat was
killed by being accidently stepped up
on the elephants were not quieted un-
til the remains were thrown out
through a doorway, and then the
frightened ones watched the door in
evident dread Of its appearance
