ON HEALTH GET IN
GOOD WORK.
A Big Saving to the Tax Payers by
Having Board of Health Salaries
Itemized-QuietS Session.

There were only ten members pres
ent in the House this morning be-
sides the speaker.
The committee to whom had been
referred the petition regarding the
records of courts outside of the First
district, reported through Chairman
Achi that they had made careful in
quiry through both the Chief Justice
and chief clerk of the courts, and
they had found that the clerks of
several of the courts outside of Hon
olulu were now at work preparing
duplicates of their records. The COM
mittee strongly urged that all origi-
nal records of the outside courts be
kept in Honolulu under the control
of the chief clerk of the courts, and
carefully preserved in the fire proof
vaults which it is proposed to erect
in the Judiciary building for that
purpose.
The report of the Committee ON
Health and Education to whom had
been referred that part of the Appro-
priation Bill relating to the Board of
Health, was taken up by the House,
on the consideration of the Senate
Appropriation Bill
The committee recommended that
instead of Jumping off the sums for
the various departments. the salaries
of each official under this head be all
itemized and inserted in the BILL in
order that the House might know
just what they We're doing. The rec
concentrations of the committee were
adopted in almost every case. and in
this manner the appropriation for this
department was reduced over $4,000.
