SOUTH SIDE MAN
Returns From a Visit to His Old
Home in England

James Bycott OF the South Side. has re-
turned from a visit to his old home in
England. He was accompanied by James
Washnsley. Mr.. Bycott says of his trip:
II spent about two months in England
on my trip. 1t has been p years since
left that country and on my return 1 no.
ticed the many improvements England
has made in that time. The English are
away ahead of us with their fine country
roads kept in good condition. The Eng
lish people are raising a great many to-
matoes now. Theirs are much more solid
than the American tomatoes, and are not
as watery. The English tomatoes are
worth about 121a or Is cents a pound
London is so crowded with cabe and
BUSES that I do not see how so many of
them can pass without Gliding. There
are a great many Americans there to
whom London seems to be the center of
attraction. While there I saw at Derby
barracks of one of the English garrisons
a young man who had just returned from
South Africa. He was a pitiful sight. His
face was drawn and haggard. his clothing
hung loosely upon him and he showed
the marks of severe hardship. l also met
another Britisher who had been at Spion
Kop. One thing very noticeable is the
good feeling between the English and the
Americans

Theatre VIII BE Crowded all Week.
The Grand Opera House should and
will be crowded all next week. The
cause for this is the productions of the
Branning Dramatic Company, which
will appear the entire week What
better plays can the patrons ask for
than those which Manager Branning
has in store for them, such as THE
Social Highwayman,' Friends"
Iron Master" Credit Lorraine"
Lights and Shadows" Under the City
Lamps" etc, and not only the plays
are to be wondered at but the manner
in which they are presented. Miss
Louise Mitchell, Miss Carrie lie Moyne,
Mr.. H. Preston Coffin, Frank Munnell.
Harry Crosby, William Powell and
Burt Wisner have been specially en-
gagged for their respective parts, each
one an actor or actress of highest rank
and ability. Miss Mitchells costumes,
which she will wear during the week,
cannot be excelled or even equalled by

Hello Bill.

Since the sad affection which has be-
fallen Chas. H. Hoyt, Americas most
prolific farce writer, theatrical men
generally have been casting their eyes
about to pick his successor, and believe
they have done so in the person of Will

famous farce, Hello Bill" which is the
attraction at the Opera House next
Monday and Tuesday, September 10th
and 18th. Although but thirty years
of age, Mr.. Goodhue has already won a
proud place among the creators of

was clinched by the even greater hit

WILL LEAVE GUAM
THE DEPARTMENT CONSIDERING
HIS RECALL.
The Governor Has Been Too Long in
Foreign Service-Some of His Orders
at Agana.

WASHINGTON, March LIT is
probable that Captain Leary, governor
of Guam, will be relieved of his guber-
material duties about the beginning of
the next fiscal year, July l, and de-
tailed elsewhere. Captain Leary will
have then been at Guam nearly year.
The reason for the discussion by naval
authorities of the ACCESSIBILITY of re-
lieving him has not been made known,
but it is suggested as one of them
that Leary has been on sea and foreign
service almost continuously for two and
a half years. The Navy Department
does not intend to detain officers in
foreign shore service longer than the
usual period of sea detail, two years
for high officers and three years for
their juniors.
Reports just received by the Navy De-
partment from Leary contain some eX-
plantations for his reasons for issuing
certain orders which have been objec-
tionable to the people of Guam, and
have caused considerable criticism of
his course. One order forbade the ring
ing of the church bell at Agana Leary
says in explanation of this that the
church was located close to a hospital in
which were seventeen typhoid patients
from the American marine garrison,
who were much annoyed by the bell
ringing. Another and more important
order abolished the custom of suspend
ing all occupation on church feast days
This gave great offense, and the matter
was brought to the notice of the Navy
Department. 1t is understood that
I,eary has been instructed to amend
the order so as to let the people observe
as many of these feast days as they
were accustomed to do. The Admins
tration approves Leary's order abolish
! ing slavery in Guam.

.DR. c. B. WOOD TORESIGN
PRIVATE BUSINESS DEMANDING
ATTENTION.
Must Return to His Practice as Soon
as Situation VIII Warrant lt-Rou-
tine Board Matters.

At the meeting of the Board Of
Health yesterday afternoon DR.. WOOD
gave notice that he wished to resign
from the office of President OF the
Board of Health as soon as the situa-
| ton would warrant it. He took the OF
flee at a most critical time, ana Just
when very few men could have filled
the place. DR.. Wood then remarked
that he hoped it would be for month
at most But it has dragged out into
| three months and the Doctors practice
has been badly crippled.
| Both the prophylactic and curative
serum are getting low, and the matter
of fresh supply was discussed by
the Board at length yesterday There
was danger apparently, that the serum
| would run out altogether before more
J could be procured. 1t was decided
/ therefore, to have Consul Wilder at
San Francisco wire to Washington or
Paris for more.
| The matter of the failure of Consul
| Wilder to say anything about the ex-
istence of plague at San Francisco on
the Mariposas report was commented
! On. A clean bill of health was given the
vessel. 1t was the opinion that the Con-
sui should report any suspicious case
of Illness and the Minister of Foreign
Affairs was requested to so inform Mr..
Wilder.
The salaries of John Ouderkirk, c. B.
Ripley and F. j. Wilhelm, appraisers of
the Board of Health, $500 each, were
approved Robertson e. Wilders bill
for professional services, $500, was also
approved This firm was retained in
January as counsel for the Board.
The Bishop estate requested that all
of it's old shacks in Kakaako near the
house from which the Japanese plague
victim of Sunday was taken be de-
stroyed by fire. The request will be
complied with. Several of these houses
would doubtless have been condemned
anyway.
DR.. ]. B. S. Pratt, sanitary engineer,
reported that the yards in the part Of
Chinatown left by the fire, were get
ting in about as bad condition as be-
fore. He recommended a regulation re-
quiring damp yards to be cemented.

Important recommendation for the
