The Wiener Tagblatt, an influential
Austrian journal, has found an extraor-
binary reason for praising the demeanor
Of the czar. He actually allowed Nine.
Faure and Nine. Brisson, who are not
even hofahg, to dine at the same table
with himself and the czarina. Such a
concession to republican principles
would, the journalist continues, be alb
solutely impossible in Vienna, where,
though a low born man might be adj
mitted to the emperor's table, his wife
never could be. The fact is correct and
was once the occasion of curious scene
at the Hofburg when the emperor had to
exert his personal authority to obtain
partners for his premier's daughter, but
our contemporary surely mistakes the
feeling of the czar. In his mind, as in
that of every true autocrat, there is no
rank except that derived from his favor
His notice, in fact, as Nicholas I once
openly said, of itself confers rank. The
well born in Russia have social ad-
vantages, as everywhere else, but Peter
the Greats ablest minister was a cook
or sutler, and the tradition has never
been forgotten. In Russia, as in every
o1<ptal country without exception, all
cadR's are as open as in the United
St. -LondaN Spectator.

The water supply and Asiatic Immi-
grafton Discussed.
The regular meeting of the
Board of Health took place yes
terday afternoon.
President Smith told the Board
that the government had done no.
thing further in regard to the
order passed by the Board res
tricting the landing of over 700
immigrants from any one vessel,
as there was some doubt of the
legality of the action. A bill was
before the Legislature, based on a
similar United States law, which
would settle the matter and
the orders could go on the
Doric on the 10Th. The Executive
had also thought it advisable to
send one or more members of the
Board to China and Japan to per-
sonally investigate the system of
shipping immigrants, the plague
and the conduct of officials gener-
ally. DIR. Wood had consented to
go and it was more than likely he
would go with him. He asked
for an expression of opinion from
the Board.
Mr.. Lansing said as the govern
ment seemed to have settled the
matter there was nothing more to
say.
Members Day and Brown fav-
ored the measure.
The regular weekly reports were
received and filed.
The committee appointed to in
yestigate the condition of the
water in the Nuuanu reservoirs
presented their report, which was
discussed at length. 1t was
finally resolved to ask the Execu.
tive for an appropriation of $780,
600 for the purpose of introducing
the Hyatt system of filtration.
The matter of the enforcement
of the vaccination law by school
teachers was brought up but went
over to next week for determine
ton.
At request of L. M. Thurston,
attorney for DR.. Akana, the clerk
was ordered to make out copy
of the charges brought before the
Board against Akana by DIR.
Clifford Ryder.
After a short executive session
the Board adjourned.
