OFFICIAL STATEMENT CONCERN
ING BUBONIC PLAGUE.
Office of the Board of Health.

Office of the Board of Health.
Honolulu, II. l., December 49, 1899.
On December 18th, 1899, five deaths
under suspicious circumstances We're
reported to the Board of Health. Au-
topsies We're performed in each case,
and only two of these, however, have
been formally declared to be cases of
bubonic plague. No deaths from bu-
bonic plague have been reported since
the 18th inst, and no deaths under
suspicious circumstances since the 14th
instant.
BY order of the Board of Health qua
rantine was raised on the 18th inst.
at y o'clock noon, the infected dis
trict having been under strict quaran-
tine from the 18th instant to that date.
The houses where the deaths occurred
are still under surveillance.
The Port of Honolulu is hereby de-
clared free from dangerous, contagious
or infectious diseases.
HENRY E. COOPER,
President of Board of Health.

THE COMMISSIONERS.

The appointment of c. B. Ripley,
George r. Carter and j. Edwards as
commissioners for Chinatown is the
true earnest that President of the
Board of Health wants free and indie
pendent views upon the reformation of
that unfortunate district 1t had been
rumored round town that the appoint
ment would only be made If the APP
pointees would agree before hand with
the preconceived notions of the Minis
ter. This seemed impossible, but 1t
was believed by the credulous. How
ever, the announcement of the appoint
ments on the commission is sufficient
guarantee that no such scheme was
toward, and those who know Minister
Cooper would not for moment believe
any such charge against him.
The members of the committee are
eminently practical men. Mr.. Ripley
is one of the best architects in the city
and what he does not know about sani-
tary points in erecting buildings is not
worth knowing.
Mr.. Carter is a man who fearlessly
expresses MS OplHOHS, no matter WHOM
the criticism may hit. There is prob
ably no more Independent minded man
in this city than Mr. Carter. He Is
thoroughly honest in his views and
never hesitates to express them, wheth-
er it is at a political meeting or upon
a matter concerning civic policy
Mr.. Edwards is comparative strang-
er to Honolulu, but he has had large
experience in sewage and kindred mat
ters away from here and he brings in
valuable assistance to the two other
members of the committee. Cleaning u
town is an art as much as painting and
music. A man requires training for It.
Sometimes a man has an inmate idea
of what is the right thing to do and
the right time to do it. Such a man
is the business man of the committee
and there is no doubt that he will prove
of value to the expert. With two good
technical men and an eminently active
and experienced business adept, both
disease and change ought to be well
fought while the interests of the public
should be well conserved. 1t seems to
go without saying that the appoint
ments are good and should commend
themselves to the public.

have a Legislature again. The subject

The dock question is a very serious
one. If the transports continue to come
thick and fast, and the coal ships and
merchant ships come piling in, there
will be a tremendous congestion in the
harbor. There is some hope, however,
that the Grant will be the last through
transport, and the vessels carrying
horses and supplies may be limited to
three a month.

The work of the associated charities

the originators of the scheme knew
thoroughly what they were about.

MINING M ACHINERY.

A number of mining machinery men are
in the city soliciting orders for their re-
spective firms. They all report good bust
ness even at the advanced prices caused
by the advance in the price of iron and
steel. Said a travelling man today "It
is surprising how suddenly the business
of this vast country finds a limitation.
The American iron and steel people M
especially the American manufacturers
of mining machinery, have been reaching
about over the world for orders until
very recently; n American machinery
has been the main mechanical developer
of the South African gold mines.
but the present mining development
of this country is practically stopped by
the inability of capitalists to maxi con-
tracts for mining machinery. Neither
good dredging machinery nor stamp mill
machinery nor hoisting machinery can
be contracted for now in this country for
delivery within any reasonable time. Six
months & the E. p. Allis Machine COM
pany of Wisconsin, was declining more
orders than it accepted, and, like other
manufacturers in the same line of bust
ness, 1t is now filled with orders for about
two years ahead"

A WONDERFUL PIANO PLAYER IN
BUTTE.

He plays the most difficult compost
tons, such as LISTS Hungarian Rhap-
sodie and Jan Juan Fantasia, and all of
Beethoven's Sonata: also the commoner
music, rag-time pieces, etc. Like many
automatic Instruments, the Pianola plays
from punctured sheets, but with a diff
ference-the music is for the instrument
is laid out and cut from ordinary cards
with mathematical exactness. Not so with
the Pianola. The Aeolia company, pro-
prietors of the Pianola, are the owners
of a very remarkable machine, by means
Of which it is possible to record a piano
performance, note for note, exactly as
played. 1t is by the aid of this really
wonderful invention that the music of
the Pianola becomes a faithful imitation
of the best performances of leading
pianists. It requires no musical educa-
ton to play the Pianola. Any one who
has never taken a lesson car play as well
as the finest musician. 1t is endorsed by
all the leading musicians in the world
Nine. Lillian Nordica, Nine. Melba, M.
Ignace P~adarewski, NJ. f. Ysaye, Rosen-
thai and others. The Pianola is also en-
dorsed by ex-senator Lee Mantle and ex-
Mayor Thompson of Butte. For sale and

The defendants in the suit of J. H.
Maloney and others against Silas +. KING
and others in connection with the Silver
King vein apex, made a motion IN court
TODAY to have the bond OF the plalntilI
on injunction increased from $4,000 to
$50, 900. The motion was based on an affl-
; davit made by Wakeman Sutton and
James "A. Talbot. two Of the defendants.
In the affidavit Sutton states that talbot
and himself own the lease-hold on the
Silver King mine and it will xplre an
February L; that since the lease was
executed an order has been made re-
straining all Of the defendants in the
suit from mining ore east of a vertical
plane passing through a point on the
north side line of the Plymouth lode 405
feet from the northeast corner of said
claim: that Talbot and himself have no
interest in the Silver King, other than
the lease; that on the date of the making
Of the injunction order a bond of $4,000
to indemnify the defendants from any
damage they might sustain was required;
that since the order was made the plain
tiffs have sunk an incline shaft about GO
feet, following the dip of the lead, and
have made an upralse from the under
ground workings, together with other
work, showing. to q certainty that the
apex claimed by them to exist at the
point where they have sunk to be that
of an entirely separate and distinct lead
from the one upon which defendants
made their underground workings, and
that the apex Of the latter is wholly
within the surface boundaries of the Sill
yer King for the entire length of the
lead involved in the injunction order.
Further, Sutton says that if the in
junction order had not been made Talbot
and himself could ave mined from the
prohibited district at least SIS. 900 worth
Of ore within the limits of the lease; tina,
the case will not likely be reached on the
calendar before the expiration of thu
lease; that if the injunction is continued
in force until it is reached the plaintiff!
will sustain damage to the extent of a
least .$37 500, and therefore the IS, 900 bone
is insufficient to preserve their rights.
