A regular meeting Of the Hill city
Knights Of Pythias Was held at that
place on Wednesday evening, upon
which occasion this city was represented
by the following Knights: S. n. Fitch,
7. ii. Bertschy, &. s. Manahan, l.. q.
Reder, Fred Porath, John Wells, Frank
Mclaughlin, Weldon Richardson Chas.
Means and AL Craig. The Custer con
tingent report the meeting as having
been one Of exceptional interest, and
are loud and enthusiastic over the royal
manner in which they were entertained
by their fellow Knights Of Hill City.
An elegant banquet between acts was a
feature so entirely pleasing in is char
acter that it will probably be a long
time before the boys cease talking about
it. The mos! Of the party returned on
Thursday morning, but there were a
few, who were SO badly gone on the
town that they couldn't pull themselves
away until the next day.
Throw away that old leaky boiler and
pail, and buy the Anti-rustware, that
never leaks, at Garlock's.

Discovered by a Woman.

Another grea. discovery has been
made, and that too, by a lady in this
country. Disease fastened it's clutches
upon her and for seven years she with.
stood its ~seyerest tests, but her vital
organs were undermined and death
seemed imminent. For three months
she coughed necessarily, and could not
sleep. She finally discovered a way to
recovery, by purchasing of us a bottle Of
DR.. Kings New Discovery for consump-
ton, and was so much relieved on taxi
ing first dose, that she slept all night
and with two bottles has been absolutely
cured. Her name Is Mrs. Luther Lutz."

BOARD OF HEALTH.
Business Transacted Al
a Regular Meeting.
Bids for Supplying Dressed Beef
and Vaccine Virus-ClOse
Figuring.

At a regular meeting OF the National
Board of Health, held in the offices al
the Judiciary Building at 4:3O yester-
day afternoon, the matters considered
covered quite a range.
Those who attended the meeting
were President Smith, Secretary VIII
cox, DR.. Day, DR.. Emerson, T. F. Ian
sing. L. D. Keliipio, DR.. Alvarez, Dr.
Monsarrat, Inspector J. D. McVeigh.
The Maternity Home has invested in
a $1,000 bond of the Oahu Railway &
Land Co. and still has a neat balance
on hand
Letters were read citing that there
was no Government physician in Kau
district. Dr. Capron has left and DR..
Macmillan is acting for the planta-
tions only. The matter will be held in
allegiance for a time.
1t was suggested that notice be given
to all concerned that hereafter the
purchase of a practice including the
post of Government physician, would
not meet with the approval Of the
Board. No formal action was taken
in these premises.
( DR.. Moore of the Hilo hospital re-
commended that DR.. Fanny Wetmore
De made a consulting physician for
HiIo hospital. The board at once made
the appointment, agreeing with Dr.
Moore that it would be wise to have
woman on the staff.
President Smith remarked on %
deaths during the months of March OF
persons unattended. Of this number
10 were Hawaiians, 4 Chinese and L
Portuguese. The weather was blamed
to some degree for the alarming high
rate of mortality. President Smith
wished the matter of so many persons
dying unattended to be given careful
attention. He added that in some cases
there was doubtless attendance that
was not reported. Dr. Day limited that
it might be a good plan to require GER
| tificate of cause of death from a physi-
clan. The matter will be considered
later
Two tenders for supplying beef cattle
to the Molokai Settlement for six
months were received. The MOlokai
Ranch Company said 5A cents for
dressed beef and the Trustees of the
Parker estate said cents. The con-
tract was awarded to the lower bidder
| by unanimous vote.
The Hebron Drug Co. and Benson,
Smith & Co. Ltd bid for the contract
| to supply vaccine virus tubes to the
Board of Health. Benson, Smith & Co.
Ltd, placed the figure at 1917 cents and
were given the contract, as the other
bid was half a cent higher. The price
has been so cents a tube.
DR.. Monsarrat reported on stock kill
ed here for beef. This food supply is
becoming cleaner constantly.
The application of Arthur JOhnstOne
for appointment as milk and food in
spector, detailed the capabilities and
accomplishments of that gentleman at
considerable length. Filed.

Wells for MOIOk al.

Senator J. A McCandless and his
brother "Kimo" S. McCandless, COM
prising two members of the we'll bor-
ing firm of the three brothers, left yes
terday morning on the steamer Mauna
Loa for Molokai. The gentlemen will
leave the boat at Kaunakai. Messrs.
McCandless go to Molokai on this trip
at the request Of the new Molokai
Ranch Company. 1t is the intention to
make an expert Survey" in matter of
artesian wells. The statement was
made when the Molokai Ranch came
into control of the new owners that it
was proposed to establish a sugar es-
tate. This planning for artesian wells
is the first step in the direction Of the
same enterprise. It is believed by a
number of men who have given thought
to the subject that water will be found
by boring on Molokai, the same as on
the other Islands of the group.
