X-RaY Surgery.

A Portuguese woman who had broken
off a piece of hat pin in one of her
hands recently presented herself at the
Queens Hospital for treatment Pur-
veyor Eckardt made two X-ray pic
lures of the member, clearly locating
the bit of pin with each exposure.
However, between the time the pic
lures were made and the lances used,
the foreign substance moved an inch or
more and is not yet found. 1t is be-
lieved that the piece Of pin will work
itself out If it gives any further trou-
BILE another X-ray picture will be made
and the instruments of the surgeons
used at once.

Hail On Hawaii.

On Saturday, February 18th, there
was a severe hail storm on the road
above Keauhou, Kona, Hawaii, about
three miles from the beach. The storm
is reported to have covered an area OF
about a mile and a half square. The
stones that fell were some Of them as
large as a mans fist, the greatest num-
Der however, being about the size OF a
walnut. These fell so thick that peo-
pie caught in it could scoop them up Oh
the ground in handfuls. A large num-
Der were shaped like cross with the
middle rather rounded and appearing
for all the world like candy known as
acid drops. Fortunately, no one was
hurt by the loose stones.

An Appropriation Bill Introduced
In the Senate.
is MERELY A TRANSFER OF FUNDS
Representative Achi Presents Pc
titionS for Many Appro-
priationS.

The bill presented by Minister
Damon on Thursday, calling for an
appropriation of S5O,OOOOO for the
erection of school houses, was intro
duced in printed form from the Print
ing Committee yesterday and referred
to the Committee on Public Health and
Education.
The D.-4 calls for no direct appro-
priation from revenues to be received
during the present taxation period.
1t is already in the treasury as the
proceeds of the sale of the Hawaiian
Hotel property. The proposition to
transfer it to the order of the Min
lister of Public Instruction is Mr..
Damon's. He explained the situation
to the Advertiser. The needs for
additional school facilities are imme-
diate. The complaints from the other
islands are frequent and general. The
conditions in Honolulu are we'll known
and the Board of Education has
frequent discussions on the subject
According to provisions the public
real estate in Honolulu is Government
realization. When the Hawaiian Hotel
property was sold the proceeds were
turned into the public treasury and
constituted part of the surplus at
the end of the period. Before the pro-
perty was sold it was proposed to con-
vert the building into school house
but it was found to be unfit for that
purpose.
Mr.. Damon considered that the fact
that it had been contemplated trans
ferring the property to the Department
of Education was sufficient reason for
introducing "a bill to transfer the
money received from the sale of the
building to the same department
There must be money expended at once
for school purposes. 1t is already in
the treasury, while the discussion over
the appropriation bills may be con-
tinued for weeks when once it is pre-
cipitated and the Department of Edu-
cation suffer meanwhile. In his mes
sage the Acting President called the
attention of the legislators to the
need of additional school houses. At
the rising of the Senate the Committee
on Education went into session to
discuss the Act. Mr.. Damon was invit-
ed to confer with them. 1t is likely
that the bill may be reported today.

35 deaths and 65 surgical operations.
The reports of the different Govern
ment physicians to the Board of Health
contain the detailed accounts of the
health and sanitary conditions in their
several districts as we'll as recommen-
dations and suggestions for improve
ments in these conditions. Special
attention is paid to school houses. The
almost universal report is that dur
ing the period the general health Of the
districts has been good. In the Hama
district of Maui there has been a great
call for the physician. There were
252 deaths at the Molokai settlement
and of the births, "a survive.

SENATE.
Third Day, February Is.

The session of the Senate yesterday
was shorter than on the previous day
The roll call found II members pres
ent. There was little business. The
statistical report of the Minister of
Finance was presented by Min
lister Damon. A message was received
from the House announcing the organ
ization of that body and it's readiness
to proceed to business.
What appeared to be a meritorious
case was brought before the Senate in
the form Of communication from Pa
lihea, native 20 years old. He leases
piece of land in Palolo valley at S25
a year. The returns from the land are
practically his only source of revenue.
Taxes for three years, amounting to
over $50 have accumulated and he is
unable to pay them. He asks the Leg
islature to waive collection.
The bill providing for the appropria-
tion of $4,000 for current expenses OF
the session passed the first reading
The bill appropriating $4,000 fol-
school purposes was introduced in
mittee On Public Health and Educa-
ton. This was after some discus
sion on the merits and rights of spe-
cial appropriation bills generally
Senator McCandless wished the meas.
ure reported back to the Executive
He contended that the Legislature haC
nothing to do with the bill in its pres
ent form. In his opinion there should
| be no appropriations in lump sums
He disapproved of special appropria
| tions unless the subject were frs
thoroughly discussed. Mr.. McCand
less said he thoroughly believed in ex
tending the school facilities and ad
vancing the interests Of the Education
al department Of the Islands, but h'
preferred seeing the appropriation

A Bagpipe Party.

Members of the Scottish Thistle club
and lady and gentlemen friends had a
party at Wright's Villa, Waikiki on
Thursday evening. There was dancing
and feasting and good time generally.
The feature of the occasion was the
bagpipe music supplied by Messrs.
Lizard and Smith, who recently gave a
recital at the rooms of the club in the
city. These young men, who have been
in responsible positions in the Islands
for some time, are soon to leave for the
Orient.

The Wheeling Butchers Association,

Mr. Rowland locate his utilization
plant at Fulton. now that council has
given him the privilege OF locating 1t in
the Sixth ward. The association some
time ago was thinking OF entering the
field as a competitor for the cremation
OF the city's garbage, but afterward
gave the plan up. A member OF the as

yesterday that as soon as Mr.. Rowland
arrives here from Philadelphia, the
butchers may make oyertures to him 10
induce him to build his plant at Full
ton.
The association has a small plant at
Fulton. which turns out fertilizer,

citizens would object to the scheme X

plant be located within the city limits,
where council could exercise proper SUI
pervtsion and control of its operations.
The South Side people who objected
