health matters in Honolulu. We have
had an experience which generally
wakens up a community. u has al.
ready accomplished two great points
one is iu the cleaning out Of the filth
Of Chinatown. and the other is the in
stallment Of the sewerage system

thing which has made Honolulu a place
Of danger. 1t has been the system Of
dispOsing OF dejecta. That. I believe.
Is going % be thing OF the past.
Another thing needed Is the proper
treatment OF the citys water supply.
Those cities which have perfect sewer
systems and perfect treatment Of the
water supply are the cities which es-
cape all epidemics They do not have
cholera, or typhoid fever and there is
no reason on earth why Honolulu
should not spend money n rendering
the city so sanitary that no epidemic
can gain any foothold. 70 Is certainly
feasible and economical.
Dangers TO be Needed.
have drawn up a list Of things
which I think should be brought TO
the attention of the Government before
the Board returns 20 it's normal c5ndi-
ton. Among those things are tubcrcu-

listed in the city sometime previous,
perhaps a month before II was really

facts In support of my opinion. With
that statement was one that some
deaths had occurred, sudden in char

ably a number of these deaths should
be accredited to plague. II sounded
very plausible. but believe that is not
true also. have looked over the NOR

ed by Mr. White of the Washington High


School
The diplomas were awarded by Prof. w.
s. Montgomery, who made an address to
the young students. Addresses were made
also by Revs. Bradford, Taylor and How
ard of Washington. The meeting was pre-
sided over by Prof Ellis w. Brown, chair
man of the executive committee.
A meeting of the board of directors was
held at 5 o'clock pm, at which a full re-
mort was submitted showing the condition
of the school. The years work was re-
ported to have been very satisfactory, and
the school in excellent condition. In sub
hitting the financial report it was shown
that Mrs Frances A. Hackley and MISS Elm
ily Rowland both of New York. had been
generous contributors to the school during
the year. ~
The directors decided to erect large
brick structure in place of the frame build
ing recently constructed by Mrs Hackley
and DESTROYED by fire last winter. The new
building is to furnish dormitories for the
bows and room for work shops. and Is to
cost about $500. Provision will be made
for establishing blacksmithing and shoe
making plants, and the large farm Will be
nut under the immediate control of train
ed agriculturfst, SO as to relieve Prof. w ood-
ford of this duty.
A more extended effort will be made dur
ing the summer to increase the number OF
students and Miss Jennie Dean, the for
mer field agent for the school, will resume
that work next fall.
The school has exerted a wide influence
for good among the colored people of this
community.

DIFFERENCEN RULES
Mr.. Spalding's Announcement to
Athletes Going to Paris.
OUR MEN PUT At A DISADVANTAGE
Opening the Y. M. c. A. Tennis
Tournament.
CURRENT SPORTING NOTES

Mr.. A G. Spalding. director of sports at
the Paris exposition. has issued instruc-
tons to the various athletes who will COM
pete at the Paris sports in relation to the
difference between the rules that will gov
ern the shot putting over there and our
own rules.
Instead of being put from a circle the
shot will be put from a square, and the
measurement will be from the nearest
break in the ground direct to the square or
prolongation of the lines on each side. This
is similar to rule in vogue in America
many years ago. The discus will also be
thrown from a square instead of a ring.
In the international tug of war the teams
will consist of six men each
Mr.. Spalding says in answer to the ques-
ton as to who will do the handicapping,
that it will probably be conducted by the
officials of the Union des Societies Fran
caises of Sports Athletiques. under whose
rules all competitions will take place.
The contests designated in the official
program as weight throwing contests will
consist of putting the shot and throwing
the hammer and discus, they having elimi-
mated the throwing of the fffty-Six-pound
weight. Any style of hammer handle can
be used.
The pole vaulting rules have apparently
been modelled after the English rules, and
our American pole vaulters will find that
they will be severely handicapped in this
respect. for in America we have eliminated
the climbing of the pole, while Englishmen
lshmen an advantage over our American
CHAMPIONS.

club at National Park yesterday afternoon.
The visitors were outbatted and outfielded
the final score being to l in favor Of the
association boys. Nicholson's arm was in
good condition, and as result but six hits
were registered off his delivery. Back of
Nicholson the men played finely in the field
and batted hard securing eleven safe
drives one of them a double by Herring.
Edwards did the twirling for the AleXan-
d1ians and when his support is considered
his work was good. The Virginia boys
fieded poorly at critical times. and could
only hit the ball when the singles went for
nothing. The only run credited to them
crossed the plate as result OF being hit
by pitched ball, an error by shortstop
and a single into center. The Alexandria
team needs strengthening in one or two
places, after which the other members of
the league will find them tough article to
walk away with.
Tomorrow afternoon a great game is ex-
pected at National Park. Two Of the best
clubs in the league-Eastern Athletic aud
Ccrcorans-will face each other, and the
chances are that a splendid game will be
played. The ability of the Easterns is well
known, while the reputation of the individ-
ual players of the Corcorans assures a
strong team should they be able to pull to-
gether. Whaler will probably pitch for
the Easterns. while Waple will do the same
for the Corcorans. The game will be called
