HEALTH MATTERS
Regular Session of Board
Yesterday.
tuberculosis Discussed-Dr. Shaw
to Act-Dairymen are
Satisfied.

The regular weekly session of the
Board of Health was held yesterday
afternoon with the following present:
President Cooper, Drs. Monsarrat, En-
erson; Messrs. c. B. Reynolds, c. A.
Brown, T. F. Lansing and Keliipio.
Minutes of the two previous meetings
read and approved.
Inspector Keliipio's report for the
week ending April 4th showed SO, 700
fish received at the market. This is
quite a drop in the receipts of fish for
the week previous. Mr.. Keliipio re-
ported that fish were very scarce.
Mr.. Keliipio also reported detection
of certain Cinnamon at the market in
the offense of mixing pond with sea
fish. The assistant inspector had been
arrested on complaint of one of the
Cinnamon for throwing away certain
salt water fish that had been mixed
as above, The case had not been tried
yet.
Mr.. Meyers, superintendent of the
leper settlement on Molokai. wrote
saying that there was no need of an
eye specialist at the settlement as the
| trouble among the patients was not of
the kind that required operation. The
| patients themselves had become con-
WINGED of this to large extent Mr.
| Meyers asked that no further action be
taken by the board in the matter.
The application of Rev. d. Kaai of
the Molokai leper settlement. to at
tend the meeting of the Hawaiian
| Evangelical Association on Maui, was
unanimously granted.
The application of an old native at
the settlement, aged S. years, and who
has been at the place for IA years, to
! life, was referred to Mr.. Meyers.
The application of Kahalewai, an old
nuisance, to go to the leper settlement
as kokua to his wife, was promptly de-
MED.
President Cooper stated that he had
had talk with Dr. Shaw. veterinary
surgeon. and that he had expressed
himself as willing to give the time
necessary to the work of examining
stock for tuberculosis for a certain
compensation, this to pay him for the
loss of time from his own practice.
President Cooper further stated that
there seemed to be a general willing
ness on the part of owners of cows to
have their animals tested for tubercu-
losis.
DR.. Shaw was employed by the board
to do this work of examining the COWS
for tuberculosis, and Dr. Monsarrat
was voted an addition to his present
salary for his part of the work of ex-
animation.
The matter of testing cows in pri-
vate families came up for considera-
ton. 1t was the opinion of the board
that these, as well as dairy cows,
should be tested.
DIR. Monsarrat explained that he had
learned from the Interior Department
of 81 daires operated in the city of
Honolulu. He had not, as yet, become
familiar with the location of all these
places.

TROPIC RAIN.

(By Robert Louis Stevenson.)
Sudden the thunder was drowned
quenched was the dim light,
And the angel-spirit of rain laughed
out loud in the night,
Loud as the maddened river raves in
the cloven glen,
Angel of rain! You laughed and leaped
on the roofs of men.
And the sleepers sprang in their beds,
and joyed and feared as you fell;
You struck and my cabin quailed, the
roof of it roared like a bull.
You spoke. and at once the mountain
shouted and shook with brooks.
You ceased, and the day returned, rosy
with virgin looks.
And methought that beauty and terror
are only one, not two:
And the world has room for love and
death and thunder and dew;
And alH the sinews of hell slumber in
summer air;
And the face of God is a rock, but the
face of the rock is fair
Benefcent streams of tears flow at the
finger of pain;
And out of the cloud that smiles, be-
neficent showers of rain.

soon the japanese were in a rather
turbulent state. Rushing here and
there in the pens, they informed the
Deputy Marshal, through three or four
spokesman, that they did not intend
going back TO Japan, and that they
would die before going a single step.
Then they thought a while and sent
word that it was their desire to see
Consul General Shimamura.
The Deputy Marshal returned to the
city, and later on, went to the quar-
antine station together with Minister
Cooper and a Japanese interpreter.
The causes of the return were made
clear to the Japanese. they were rea-
soned with on the uselessness and fool
ishness of any show of hostility and it
was not long before they were quiet
and peaceful again
Then came the packing and general
exodus to the scow which was wait
ing patiently to receive the rejected
Japanese. When they got aboard the
Coptic, they seemed quite pleased to
think that it was not the dark and
close hold of the Sakura Maru they
would have to remain in. There was
no further demonstration on the part
of the Japanese.

AFTER CANE WHAT
Louisiana Planter Por-
tends the Future.
United States Is Exceptionally
Adapted to Growing
Sugar Beets.

Now that it is claimed by sugar beet
growers that it is but a question of
time when the United States will be
able to supply the world with sugar,
the Louisiana Planter asks what is to
become of the cane sugar growers. The
Planter says:
In our issue of January 80 we wrote
sugar beets in the State of
Washington, based upon bulletin No.
26 by Prof. Elton Fulmer, which was
recently issued from the State Expert
ment Station at Pullman, and covered
experiments in the culture of the sugar
beets in Washington during 1895 and
1896.
An earlier bulletin gave even more
favorable data concerning sugar beet
culture in Washington than what we
deduced from bulletin No. &c, although,
as we said in that article, the gist of
the whole matter was that the State of
Washington was exceptionally well
adapted to sugar beet production.
Now comes Professor Fulmer and
calls our attention to a grievous error
that we made in selecting the best sam
pie for the basis of our comparison
from the column of poorest samples
If the best of poorest samples justified
our conclusions. and they did, what
must we conclude from an examination
of the best samples. We shall see.
EXPERIMENTS WERE MADE.
In order to determine the adaptable
ty of the various sections of the State
seed was distributed and samples were
tested from ten different sections OF
the State. The experiments were made
in large way-in fact, we may say
practically on industrial lines. An acre
of beet constituted each experimental
field to secure fair average. Now fol-
the results As we said before, the
poorest samples averaged above IL pei
cent. sugar. or to be more exact, throw
ing out one exceptional sample that
was grown under peculiar conditions
we find the nine poorest samples aver
aged 1921 per cent. sugar in the beets
or to make better comparison with
sugar cane, of which the can juice or
dinarily is tested. the juice of the nine
poorest samples averaged 1896 pei
cent. sucrose of 1924 per cent. purity
Now. we shall consider the best ter
samples, and with increasing expert.
ence it is certainly fair to think thai
the farmers of Washington will be able
to raise beets equal to these ten sam
pies. The best ten samples averaged
20.31 per cent. of sugar in the juice
the poorest of the ten indicating 49,;
per cent. and the best of the ten 23.t
per cent. sucrose. No wonder Profes
sor Fulmer protested against our fain
praise. The purity of the best ten sam
pies averaged 91.3 per cent
All this is surely morvelous, but i
indicates the inevitable The United
States will stand ready to supply thu

mission and he thought that no good
could result from delaying its appoint
ment. Business throughout the coun-
try was greatly depressed, and it was
his opinion there should be no delay in
taking measures for the general relief.
There was, however, he said, in some
quarters, serious doubt of the expedi-
ency of allowing legislation of any
character whatever to interfere with
the consideration and prompt passage
of tariff measure.
1t is understood that the House is
ready at any time to carry out the Pre-
sident's views as to a monetary COM
mission and revision of our monetary
system. In the Senate, however, it is
said there is likely to be opposition to
speedy action. The committee expect
to remain in Washington a week or so
in conference with members of Con-
gress on the subject.

Railroans Averse to Becoming Mixed Up
in the Big Strike.
CLEVELAND, July l3.-Positive infor-
nation has been received in this city
that the Ohio railroads have decided to
tefuse to haul West Virginia coal.
These roads include the Baltimore and
Ohio, the Cleveland, Lackawanna and
Western, the Wheeling and Lake Erie
and the Cleveland, Canton and
Southern. An effort is now being made
to verify the information. prominent
coal operator said that unless the min.
ers are represented at the meeting OF
the board of arbitration at Pittsburg the
whole thing will be farce.
"The miners are not in position to
ask for arbitration" said he. "They
do not want it. They have more than
fulfilled their boasts. They have &C.
complished as much, if not more than
they said they would. They are in a
position to dictate. In my opinion the
strike will last 60 days at least"
Colonel Myron T. Herrick, receiver
of the Wheeling and Lake Erie, was
approached upon the subject as tc
whether the Ohio roads would refuse tc
haul West Virginia coal.
1--WE are not refusing to haul it,
said he, "and I have not heard that
there is any such movement on foot
among the roads,"
Mr.. Wardrell, the receiver Of the
Cleveland, Canton and Southern, said
1--WE are very glad to get West Vir
ginia coal to haul, and have no disposi
ton to refuse to haul it. However,
do not know what labor contingency
may arrive in the near future that vii
make it convenient to refuse to hau
coal"

THEY FEEL EASIER.

Coal Operators Recovering From Their
Panic of Last Week.
CLEVELAND, July l3.-The local coal
operators are taking more hopeful
view of the strike situation. Dan
Hanna, manager of M. A. Hanna &
Cr., said that as long as the West Vir.
ginia coal was mined, there could be nc
particular stringency, as there is suf'
fiicient coal out of the earth already to
last until winter. Small dealers, how
ever, are squirming over their inability
to get coal for retail orders from the big
dealers. The big dealers will not part
with their supply.
The Madison daily leader. [volume] (Madison, S.D.) 1890-current, 1897-07-13

The small coke operators of the Con-
nellsville region, who own Independent
plants will, it is said, shut down the
majority Of their ovens and begin to
load the raw coal for shipment. At the
present price Of bituminous coal, there
is more profit in it in the raw state than
could be made by manufacturing it
into coke. With the prices advancing
and not much coal on hand, there prom.
ises to be exciting times in the coal
market. It is known there are a mum.
ber of operators short on small orders,
and it is probable that number of the
smaller dealers will unite in making one
big purchase and thus protect their
tradesmen.
Visible Supply Very Small.
The visible supply of coal is very
small. There are about 10 trainloads of
The Pittsburg product OH the sidings of
the Fort Wayne railroad between this
city and Alliance, on which the railroad
company has an eagle eye. 1t was
mined for the lake trade, but held.
Then there are 100000 to 10000, 600
bushels on the flats and barges along the
rivers. This might as we'll be in the
mines as far as satisfying the rail de-
mand is concerned. There are serious
doubts, however, of the operators being
able to put it on the market. The
miners will watch the coal in the barges,
and if an attempt is made to load it for
the railroad trade, the handlers will be
induced to strike. In this the miners
expect to be successful.
Will Result in a Compromise.
"This whole thing will result in a
compromise, said one Of the prominent
operator, '.The opeuttors are in po-
sit>,a to stand it for some time, and !
believe the miners are in about the
same condition. It looks as if business
will brighten up, and in that event the
operators will be able to get better
prices, and the condition Of business and
the condition of the miner will be SIM
ultaneously improved"
From the best information obtainable,
the Pittsburg operators are in no hurry
to have the difficulty adjusted, as SO
many of them had stocks on milroad
sidings which they held for an advance
Much of this was disposed of Saturday
at good profit. One prominent oper
ator said that it would take another
week to determine the exact state of the
market, and by that time genera
cleaning up will have taken place.
