DR.. WOOD IN)CULATED
TAKES DOSE OF THE PLAGUE
PREVENTIVE.
Feels Effects Very Strongly Today and
Has Gone Home-Many People Ask
for Prophylactic.

The plague situation today is very
favorable. There are no deaths, no
cases, and no suspicious cases.
DR.. Wood is today enjoying the ex-
duislte sensations of a man in his first
day of plague. His knees are weak
and quaky, temperature tending up
ward and eyes are hot and wear a
drowsy expression.
Last night DR.. Wood took the pro-
phylactic sent down by Surgeon Cen
eral Wyman to be used as a preven-
tive of plague. 1t was injected into
his arm. The effects became manifest
this morning, when the experimenter
began to feel that he had swallowed n
bottle of malaria. He tried to work at
the office but the symptoms became
more pronounced and he went home
just before noon.
There is an assuring statement in the
printed description of the prophvlactic,
which DR.. Wood now reads with a
gulp. 1t says that a person having
contact with plague patients, and TAX
ing the preventive may succumb." d"
This is printed in cold type, but is prob
ably merely a warning to ensure great
| caution in the use of the medicine.
DR.. Wood expected to be sick today.
He states that he believes he has the
first symptoms of plague, and feels
effect the preventive is intended to
have.
Yesterday the Board of Health pre-
scribed that persons desiring to leave
Honolulu need not go into quarantine
| if they would have take the prophylac-
| tic and then remain about town seven
| days. 1t was not expected that MANY
would apply for the treatment until the
result of the experiment on DR.. Wool
| was known; but just the other thing
has happened. Quite a number of peo-
pie have f1ocked to the Board of Health
office today to take the treatment
| They have all been referred to DIR. Day
With each one there was complete con-
ftdence in the preventive and an alb
sence of any fear concerning it,
| The results of the preventive on DIR
Wood will be watched with great in
terest. His first report on how he feels
will doubtless be given to the Health
Board this afternoon.

BACC|LLI killer FOUND
FORMALIN GENERATOR is THE
THING.
1t Twists the Little Microbes Into Bow
Knots and They Dle-Experiments
Prove Successful.

The formalin generator imported by
the Hollister Drug Company has proven
a success. For some time tests have
been made by the Board of Health
officials with chloroformal, a combina-
ton of formalin and calcium. Four
tubes containing plague bacilli were put
into a room and the vapor of the ger
micide was forced through the keyhole
of the door for one hour; after which
time the door was kept closed for the
night. The next morning the tubes
were removed by Dr. Camp of the bac-
THEOLOGICAL laboratory, and kept under
observation by him until yesterday af-
ternoon, when he announced the action
of the fOrmalin vapor on the baclli a
success, all having been killed.
This is a matter that will be particu-
larly gratifying, as it will afford a sat
isfactory scheme for fumigating freight
and personal effects. 1t is understood
that the system has been adopted gen
orally in the United States, particu-
larly in the yellow fever districts of the
south, where it's success has been noted
for some time A few weeks ago the
postoffice department agreed to deliver
mail promptly at San Francisco If for
maldehyde was used at this end.
One machine for transmitting the
chloroformal was received here by the
| last steamer. 1t Is now probable that
several more will be ordered for imme-
dlate shipment, and that they will ar
| rive in the next month or six weeks.

SPECIAL TASK OF THE POLICE

Everybody Who Starts to Travel the

Concealed Weapons.

Hereafter the gay and festive tippler
who walks the streets of Honolulu may
know that he is under the special at

watch than has ever been known before

the game every time now, when they
see man going pace that seems
likely to lead to trouble, especially on
Saturdays and Sundays, and they pro-
prose to find out if he is armed.

man getting too much liquor on board
1t will be our business to investigate
him in some way, find out who he is,

he carries arms. Any man who gets

likely to use the weapons. Those who
are in the habit of going on sprees will
find that they are being looked after
more than they like.
"On Sundays and Saturdays there are
great many people under the intiu-

to look up the cases of people who get
that way on Sundays, and find out

RELIEF FOR THE STARVING.
Sixty Millions Deprived of Subsistence in
India.

The magnitude of the scope and raw
age of the present famine in Indi is
almost beyond the comprehension of
the favored inhabitants of a fertile
and unfailingly fruitful region like the
United States. In striken India, in an
area of 450, 200 square miles, equal IN
extent to New England, New York,
New Jersey, Pennsylvania, Ohio, In
diana. Illinois, Michigan and Wis
cOnsin), sixty millions of people equal
to nearly two thirds the population of
the United States) have been deprived
of subsistence, and in every twenty
four hours thousands die of star
vatiOn.
Such picture of human misery and
suffering should appal the stoutest
heart and excite the compassion of the
most callous. With snch shocking
want requiring immediate relief, the
demand upon opulence becomes i'm
perative. The American people have
for years enjoyed abundant harvests,
and are now passing through a period
of unexampled prosperity. Upon
them, therefore, devolves, with almost
the significance of a Divine admoni-
ton, the duty of giving from the plenty
with which Providence has blessed
them for the succor Of the many who
are furnishing.
But, with their customary prompt
ness and energy in charitable work,
the American people have already
taken steps to provide relief for these
starving millions. There has been
formed IN New York a Committee OF
One Hundred on Indian Famine Re.
lief, the members of which have placed
themselves at the service of all who
may desire to make use of the facil
ties employed.

BOER SOLDIERS NOT VANDALS.
They Manifest no Disposition to Destroyed
Property.

The Boer soldiers are not vandals.
They departed from johannesburg
without dismantling the gold mines,
and the disturbing rumOrs, emanating
from British sources, that the city
would be destroyed if the Beers were
oblidged to surrender it, proved to be
unfounded. There has been no wanton
destruction of property there or else
where. The war has been conducted
by the unfortunate Beers from the be-
ginning according to the rules of civil
lied warfare.
With the return of more settled con-
ditions at Johannesburg it is probable
that operations at the enormously pro-
ductive mines in the locality will be
ully resumed. If gold mining had
been long suspended in this field the
worlds supply would have been ma
terially dimished, and this incidental
effect of the South African War was
receiving serious attention from writ
ers on economic and financial topics.
The Transvaal is a remarkable pro-
ducer of the yellow metal. 1t is said
that the mines of the Rand will be pro-
ductive for a century, and it is pre-
dicted that great quantities of the
metal will be found in Rhodesia, Zulu.
