FOOD INSPECTION.
Some Work Being Done Much
Planning Ahead.

DR.. Day and Food Inspector John
stone met last evening on the scheme
of work for the department. A gen
eral plan was outlined, though the de-
tails were not finally decided upon. The
first onslaught will be upon adulter-
ated foods, and a record established of
such, as well as the concerns handling
them. Practical tests of staple goods
will not be attempted until certain ma
terials arrive from the East. This may
be three or four weeks yet.
Mr. Johnstone is now established in
his permanent quarters. He has around
him a number of microscopes and a
maze of scientific names, qualifications,
etc. To follow him in his work one
has to carry dictionary as when read
ing Huxley. Thus far Mr.. Johnstone
has devoted his attentioneto analyses
of food used in the departments of the
Board of Health, particularly at Molo-

Hawaiian Girl Desired to Preside
Over a Carnival.
AN INVITATION FROM KANSAS
VIII Be Given Highest HonOrs and
Paid-A Distinction.

And now they want a Hawaiian girl
to go all the way from the Islands to
the State of Kansas to be queen. The
request comes from Topeka, to AttOr-
ney D. H. Case, formerly of that city.
Mr.. Case is now a court stenOgrapher
for the First Circuit here. The affair
over which it is desired a Hawaiian
girl should preside is the annual Kan
sas State G.. A. r. reunion and Topeka
Fall Festival, lasting from September
26 to October 1, inclusive. 1t is attend
ed by several hundred thousand peo-
pie each year and is packed by the
moneyed men of the State and several
large railway companies. All of the
men connected with the exposition are
well known.
Here is the business portion Of the
letter to Mr.. Case:
ga committee of the Carnival
knights was appointed 10 correspond
with you about securing for us queen
for our carnival. AS l was probably
better acquainted with you than the
rest it fell my pleasant lot TO write.
What we want is that you use your
best judgment and select for us some
handsome Hawaiian girl to be the
queen of the carnival.
Our people are all anxious to have
one of our neighbOrs visit us and to
come in this capacity We will pay all
of the expenses incident to the trip
will have a committee in San Fran
cisco to meet her and make her trip
from there on to Topeka as easy and
pleasant as possible. She will be able
to see a great deal of our country and
hers, under the most favorable aus
pices and the right person would have
grand time. We would return her
in the same splendid shape and give
her attention that would honor a real
queen. Of course there is no salary
with the position and we do not sup
pose any would be expected. You know
and everybody knows that the lady
who is made queen of the carnival is
not placed on exhibition or anything
of that sort and that there is always
the keenest competition for the place
amongst the best class of young ladies'
Now please exert yourself in this mat
ter and if you are afraid to trust your
own judgment call in Mrs. Case and
her choice will please us without
doubt Write to us Immediately and
let us know what can be done and the
moment you find one willing to be our
queen, secure her photograph and send
the same along without loss of time.
The Hawaiian queen of Kansas should
be in Topeka not later than Septem-
ber 28. So soon as We hear from you
we will send such money as you think
necessary. You know the carnival has
money

Athletic Grounds.

Capt Herbert, of the Cricket Club,
suggests that an Athletic Association
be organized here at once for the pur-
pose of securing a proper sporting
field. The base ball grounds are gone
and there is no hold at all on the Ma
kiki recreation grounds for field uses.
c. S. Desky at one time intended to
establish a field in KewalO and may do
so yet. Otherwise the spOrtsmen who
like field pastimes must hunt a new
lot. Base ball is dead here for this
year, but will be revived in 1899. There
are a number of base ball, cricket and
foot ball teams in the First New York
Regiment and besides some Carsmen.

the round off from the shoulder neck is
the band, or rather three bands, of vel
vet ribbon less than an inch wide,
forming straps over the shoulders to
keep the bodice in place. They are
separated just a little, so the effect is
where they fasten, if you like. The
puffed sleeve also has band and small
bow of velvet dividing the puffs. The
elbow sleeves are shirred close to the
arm, with a very small puff of little
frills at the top. Evening skirts with
