D. Howard Hitchcock, the artist,
will paint a series of volcano pic
lures for the museum at Kameha-
meha. These will represent the
changes of Kilauea since 1889 and
will prove very interesting studies.

NEWS OF THE VOLCANO.
More Active Than at First Report
ed-Will Soon Overflow.

More Active Than at First Report.
ed-Will Soon Overflow.
Purser Matthews, of the steamer
W. 6. Hall, reports the volcano in
a much more active state than was
at first reported. Just previous to
the departure OF the Hall from
Kailua, Manager Lee, Of the Vol
csno House, telephoned the purser
that the lake was rising very
rapidly, and if it continued at the
same rate for three or four days
longer, would overflow the banks.
In a private letter from Holua-
loa, L. S. Aungst, well known here,
writes in similar strain. He says
Peter Lee is the happiest man on
the big island and is ready
to conduct parties to the lake,
with the incidental remark that all
who desire to witness the grand
sight should avail themselves of the
opportunity without delay.
The Alameda, due here tomor-
row from the Coast, is expected to
bring a large tourist party and
several returning islanders that
have not seen Kilauea in an active
state. These will probably leave
by the Kinau Tuesday. As before
mentioned J. J. Williams is ar
ranging an excursion to the vol
cano for the Kinau, a number hay-
irg signi6ed their intention OF
going by the steamer Tuesday.

Emphatic Denial That It Was
Brought Here by Belgic.
LOCAL DISEASE FROM FILTH.
President W. o. Smith of the Health
Board Interviewed-A Review ofthe
Late Epidemic, Its Causes and In

And now comes DR.. Bowie and
emphatically denies that the dis
ease prevalent here short time
ago was Asiatic cholera, but was
a species of cholera with local
origin from dirt and filth.
DR.. Bowie was physician on the
Belgic which is said to have
brought cholera to Honolulu, but
he again denies and reiterates and
repeats that the Belgic never had
any cholera on board in her life, or
more particularly from Yokohama
to Honolulu at the time mentioned.
DR.. Bowie is through passen-
ger by the Coptic and is bound for
San Francisco to join the Doric or
return to the Belgic, the latter YES
sci being expected at tie Coast
some time in February.
PRESIDENT SMITH INTERVIEWED.
In connection with the above,
President W. o. Smith, of the
Board of Health, was interviewed
and spoke as follows:
1.-The physicians and officials of the
Board of Health are satisfied that
cholera was introduced here by or
through the passengers who arrived
by the steamship Belgic, August 9Th,
and that the waters of the harbor be-
came infected from the excreta OF
several of the passengers on that yes
sci who bad cholera. One of the pas.
sengers died on the morning of the
arrival Of the vessel at this port. One
was sick at the time he was removed
to the quarantine station and vomited
in the scoS WHEN oeing taken over.
After reaching the quarantine station
the lick man was taken with violent
vomiting and purging, accompanied
by cramps. He was Immediately sep
arated from the other immigrants.
A young ChiDaman accompanied him
as nurse. The sick man died the next
day, August II. Upon the following
day august IL the young Chinamsn
who had attended this case was him
self taken suddenly i'll and died the
next morning at 9 a M August 18th
after an illness OF only fifteen hours.
He was not seen bye physician, but
his symptoms We're described by Mr..
McVeigh, the officer ia charge of the
quarantine station, as follows: VIC
lent purging and vomiting, cramps in
abdomen and extremities He became
emaciated aud his body was
cold.'
"Fhere was overwhelming evidence
that the waters of the harbor became
shortly after the arrival of
the Belgic, and not in q single case
could the infection be traced to the
provisions or freight imported. Aft
davits taken of several of the Chinese
passengers, one of them being an old
resident Of Maui returning to his ISL
and home, distinctly stated that two
of the Chinese passengers who died on
the voyage were affected in the same
way as those who died at the quaran-
tine station, viz: vomiting, purging
and cramps. As a result of the evil
dence and circumstances of the case,
there eau be no question a. to the fact
that the steamship Belgic brought
the disease OF cholera hrIe on that
occasion"

Z RAYS ARE MATERIAL.
So Says Niltoia Tesla After Crucial Inves-
tiCation.

The Roentgen rays-the wonderful Y
rays, as commonly callcd--which have as
tonished the world by bringing light out
of dark places, even Illuminating the hui
man body, are now declared To be material
particles by no less an authority than
Nikola Tesla.
MIR. Tesla has been led TO take this view
for some time from the results Of expert
ments which he has been conducting in his
laboratory. But now he comes forward
without hesitation and says that the cleo
trical conditions within the tube from
which the rays issue produce absolute par
ticles. They are material rs cannon balls,
indnitesimal and attenuatcd, il is true,
but actual material which lombard the
glass and any object which mey come In
line with their motion. And this motion
is no insignificant thing and would make
the most rapid moving cannon ball appear
to stand STILL for Mr.. Tesla says his expert
ments show them TO move at n velocity of
not less than 60 miles second. In the
measurements he uses hc calls 1t 100
kilometors second. -
MIR. Tesla further says he can feel the
effects Of q SO particles striking against
his eye and ~ noted the sensation pro-
duced when they come in contact with his
brain.
Mr.. Tesla makes public his conclusions
In relation t. the Rocntgen rays in a letter

SHOCKED UNDER WATER.
A Divers Unpleasant Experience With q
Very Much Alive Wire.

The truthfulness of the old saying that
one never can tell where lightning is going
to strike is proved by an accident which
happened 10 "a man while standing on the
bottom OF the Willamette, in "A diver S

mill, from which the electricity is conveyed
by submarine cable across the river 70
operate some Of its lines on the west side
A short time since the Union power house,
from which some OF the company's lines
were operated was burned, and, as mis-
fortune never comes singly, n day or two
since the cable which crosses tho river TO
the foot of Jefferson street failed In its
duty.
j. #. Kelley, superintendent of the pow
er plant on tho east side, took steps to as
certain what tho trouble was and to have
1t put to rights. He sent Billy Martin, tho
company's diver down to overhaul the
cable, which was found to have sustained
fracture, and the copper wire in the CEN
ter, which is tho conductor, had in some
way got in contact with the wire covering
which protects the outside of the cable.
The power had been shut of from the ca
BILE at the power house before the diver
went down, and all concerned supposed he
would have "dead wire" TO handle.
They forgot about the "back water"
current from the Third street trolley wire,
which kept that part of tho cable west of
the break charged and very much "alive. !"
In bending his head down close TO the
cable to examine tho break, for the light
was dim down there, the metallic fixtures
on the divers helmet touched the charged
end of it, and he received a shock which
nearly knocked him insensiblo. He sig
nailed "Up" as quick y he could, and
when hauled to the surface expressed q
strong desire TO stay there.
He had been surprised as well as shocked,
and he wanted to quit work there and
then, as il was not in his contract To have
live wires applied to his "headpiece. He
was demonstrated with and assured that
he must be mistaken; that IL was impos-
sible he could have been shocked by cleo
tricity, because the power was shut off at
the power house. He was finally persuaded
that the shock was due to the imagina-
tion or something of the sort, and, his
helmet being put on, down he went again.
Before he would fairly SEQ what he was
about he was shocked again in the same
manner and came to the surface, If posi-
bic, quicker and medder than before.
Finally some one thought of shutting off
the power from the Third street line, and
the cable was soon raised and properly re-
paired. Portland Oregonian.

MUSICAL AND DRAMATIC.

'The Girl Left Behind Me-" which is to be produced at O'Brien's opera house tomorrow night. may be described as an American drama in four acts. written around Indians and white men, with a stockade for the most startling scene and Indian warwhoops for the incidental mu- sic. It has a cast of seventeen characters and every human emotion is brought into play during the action of the piece. It causes the heart to sink in the throat most of the time. There is a strong love element intimately connected with the garrison life and there are vivid con trasts. "The Girl I Left Behind Ms" Is considered the best combined work of its authors, David Belasco and Franklin Fyles.
 The play seems to have the power of delighting all classes of society. Per haps the judicious mingling of social incl dent, the flirting and fun that are sure to happen when soldiers and pretty girls are thrown together, and the exciting war scenes, explain this success with diff ferent classes. But even without it's pretty girls and the brilliant ball at Camp Kennion there is enough fire and stir in the tremendous stockade scene to fill any audience with enthusiasm, no mat ter whether 1t is purely fashionable one or not.
