THE REPORT NOT CREDITED.
Andres Brother Does Not Believe the
Siberian Story.

Malmo, Sweden. Feb. 1.-THE brother of
Prof. Andre, the missing balloonist who
attempted to cross the Arctic regions, has
informed a local newspaper that he does
not believe the report received by way of
Krasnoyarsk Siberia, that the remains of
Andre and mis- companions and the car of
the balloon in which he left Danes Is
land, of the Spitzbergen group, July Ii,
1897, have been found between Keno and
Pit, in the province Of Yeniseisk.
He says that locality is cultivated and
that it appears incredible that the corpses
and the car of the balloon could have been
there a year and a half without having
been seen before this. Furthermore Andres
brother points out, in stormy weather the
remains would almost certainly have been
separated from the wreck of the balloon.

HILO TELEPHONE

At a meeting of the Hilo and Hawaii
Telephone and Telegraph Company it
was pretty well decided to enlarge the
present Office quarters of the company,
by making a two story building of the
present structure, having the office in
the upper story. This it is believed
will be much more satisfactory in many
respects than the present arrangement.
The number of operators will also be
increased.
There are now about two hundred
telephones on the circuit and the re-
turns from these, though considerable
are mostly expended in improvements.
1t is hoped, however, that in a short
time the system will be brought to such
perfection that the returns will be ap-
piled more largely to dividends-Hilo

ANOTHER BIG OPIUM HAUL
JACK McVEIGH FINDS DOPE AT
MAULIOLA.
An Old Honolulu Chinaman, Return
ing From Hongkong, Tries False
Bottom Scheme.

Jack McVeigh made a clever opium
haul at Quarantine Island yesterday
afternoon. A Chinaman named Young
Dai, an old resident of Honolulu, is
under arrest at the police station un-
der charge of importing the contra
band stuff.
Yesterday afternoon McVeigh receiv-
ed orders from the custom house to
release certain of the Chinese passen-
gers by the Gaelic. They were march
ed out and inspected. Young Dali car
ried a basket and a tin can which had
previously excited the suspicious of
Guard Vierra. superintendent McNeigh
ordered the baggage overhauled.
Both the pieces contained double bot
toms. In the false chamber of the tin
can was about six pounds of opium.
In the bottom of the basket was a coup
lie of big "sausages.' These were found
to be full of opium, about ten pounds.
Young Dali was Immediately arrested.
He made no kick. The luggage was ta-
ken from his hands, for which reason
McNeigh thinks he has a good case
At the station house the prisoner met
a number of old friends. A Chinese ac-
quaintance came in and offered the
$1,000 asked for bail. The turnkey of
the station and several policemen also
recognized Young Dai as man who
had frequently been there before for
che ia playing.

NEW SCHOOL BUILDING.
site Selected Near the Hilo Hospital
Criticised.

The new school building authorized
by the board of education for Hilo to
be run in connection with the present
Union school building is now under way
and is to be completed by the 25th of
February.
The building now under way is to
cost A225, is situated on Waianuenue
street, just above Reeds Island road
and will be a handsome structure with
broad varandas.
The construction of a new school
building close to the Hilo hospital is
looked upon with considerable disfa-
Vor by residents of Hilo and by people
in charge of the Hospital 1t is be-
lieved that the location is unhealthy
for children, while the presence of the
latter near the hospital will be inju-
rious often to patients. Even the noise
from the Catholic school, located at
considerable distance has been found
a source of annoyance to both nurses
and the sick. The selection of this site
was in this respect unwise.-TIilo Tri-

WIT IN ADVERSELY.

1t is related of a wealthy Irishman
who had Slapped the resources of life
with excessive eating and drinking
and as a natural consequence was ov-
erthrown in health. The leading feat
ure of his disease was incipent dropsy.
The family physician was duly sum
mOned and the usual treatment of diet,
etc, carefully enforced. The disease
progressed until consultation was de-
clared advisable. This resulted in the
opinion that the only remedy was the
relief of tapping Upon this commune
cation the patient seemingly shook his
head and replied: Doctor, | never
had anything last very long in my
house after being tapped" He was
correct in this, as he had often proved
in his numerous empty wine barrels.
He was tapped and died.
