LEFT CORNER OF MERCHANT
AND ALAKEA.
Suspect Case Caused Exodus-Board
of Health did not Interfere-Case of
Chinatown Jap.

From II o'clock in the morning a
suspicious" case near the corner of
Alakea and Merchant streets was being
treated by Japanese physicians. At
2;l6 Or. Mitamura reported in person to
the Board of Health that he considered
the case a bad one and asked for an
efficient dagonis. The request was
complied with in aehalf hour, but even
then, for some time, it was impossible
to judge accurately.
Shortly after noon the alarm of a
plague case spread through the neigh
borhood. In a few minutes the Chinese
of one of the filthiest huts thereebouts
had packed up all their belongings,
were seen to put them in an old wagon
and were jogging off to Waikiki. The
old poi shop near the corner followed
suit, going to Kewalo. Before the
haole doctor arrived to investigate the
Chinese had moved their personal eff
fects out of the two story building at
the corner of Merchant and Alakea on
to a dray. Soon the dray drove off
all the neighbors had packed up anod
before o'clock there was not a half
dozen people, outside of the suspect
house, around there.
At the same time to the minute
another case was reported on Mauna-
kea street near Kaumakapili church.
This patient was taken charge of, all
the people in the neighborhood corral
ed and the house will be burned In
fact, the whole block may be burned
and all the people in it moved to a
special quarantine.
In the meanwhile the people in the
telephone office neighborhood, with
their effects, have scattered from town
to Waikiki and PunahOu.

CRANKY INVENTORS.
Now Trying the British since Spanish
War is over.

Col Arthur II. Lee, military attache
of the British embassy, is spending
most of his time these days reading
letters and examining models and spe-
cilications submitted by inventors of
machines and methods for the destruc-
ton of the human race. The war with
Spain directed into that field, but was
so brief that they did not have time
to develop their ideas. The South
African war has given them another
chance, and they are now bringing
their models to the British embassy
with the hope of selling the patents to
the British government. Col. Lee ex-
amines everything that is submitted
to him with great care, but thus far
has not found anything that he thinks
would be of value to his government
Most of the schemes are impracticable
or only partially developed.
One of the most persistant applicants
is an engineer who has a curious idea
of warfare and has suggested a plan
for the humiliation of the Beers which
at least has the advantage ct novelty.
He says it was suggested to him by an
accident that occurred in the power
house of the Third avenue cable rail
way in New York city a couple of years
ago. The fly wheel which regulated
the energy applied to the movements
of the street cars on that railway, be-
ing improperly adjusted, flew into a
thousand pieces, which were thrown
with great destruction in every direc-
ton, and his plan is to ship lot
of fly wheels to South Africa, ad-
just them improperly and set them
whirling in the face of loom Pauls"
army. All the British have got to do
is to wait until they explode and tncn
bury the dead in decent manner.
Another great genius has suggested
the collection of a large quantity of
disease germs, and having elevated
them to a proper height by balloon
power, jerk a string, open a valve and
let them drop like a shower of rain
over the Boer camp.

SHORT OR TALL.
Influence Of Time of Birth Upon Ones
Height

The children that first see the light in
summer are taller than those born in
any other season; so 1t Is stated by DR..
Macdonald in Child Study. According
to Combe, he says, boys born in the
months of September, October, Novem-
Der, December, January and February
are not so tall as those born in the
months, Those born in November are
the shortest. Those born in July are
the tallest. Girls, according to the
same authority, born in December,
January February, March, April and
May show less length of body than
those born in the remaining months.
Those born from June to November
are taller, but the tallest are born in
August. The Investigations of Wahl,
in Denmark, and Wretlind, in Gothen-
burg, and especially those of Mailing
Hansen in Copenhagen, on the deaf,
show that the length of body Of boys
from March till August increases
greatly, but very little from September
to February" DR. Macdonald attrib-
utes this fact TO some extent to eco
nomic conditions, for a child born in
summer has greatly better food and
air

GENERAL MACARTHUR
Thinks This Country Should Have a Good
Sized Army.
BY Associated Press.

Dy ASSUCldlGu IT6SS.
Manila, Nov. 21.-Gen Macarthur
was asked today whether the election
in the United States was in any way
responsible for the orders to push op-
erations against the Fllipinos.
He replied that the result of the
election was merely coincident with
other features of the situation. He
added that the return of soldiers and
marines from China with the recruits
that arrived recently would increase
the number of troops to 10000 men
/ The enlargement of forces, ending of
rainy season, better roads, improved
transportation and a desire to make
the most efficient use of volunteers be-
fore their term of service expires in
June, are all contributory to the more
active campaign.
Concerning the replacing $4,000
volunteers, Gen. Macarthur said that
he favors the establishment of stand
ing army of $4,000 men, and authoriz-
ing the President to increase it to
100000. The General said that various
column movements have been planned.
Soldiers and marines who returned
from China are selling quantities of
curlos, looted from the residences of
nobility or wealthy persons at Pekin
and Tien Tsin. Many of them are val
liable and ridiculously cheap.

United States Judge in Virginia
Makes Decision in
Peculiar Cnse.

Under decision of the United
States circuit court of apepals, rem.
dered at Richmond, Va, the other day
by Judge Purnell, a woman in Vir,
ginia can now claim to be the head OF
her household.
The woman in the case under advise.
ment was Mrs. Marion Richardson
She had been engaged in merchandis.
ing, but made an assignment for the
benefit of her creditors. The assets
failed to satisfy them and she asked
to be adjudged a bankrupt claiming
at the same time $4,000 under the
Homestead exemption" law.
This was refused her by District
Judge Waddill, who held that a mar
ried woman living with her husband
was not the head of the house.
Judge Purnell decided that mar
ried woman, either living with oil
apart from her husband, can be con
sidered the head of the house.

LION HUNT IN COLORADO.
The Annual Organized Chase After
Big Game Takes Place
as Planned.

The second annual lion hunt of the
Western Slope Hunting association has
started from Debeque for the noun
famous region north. The association
itselfnumbers among it's members hun
dreds of crack shots and sportsmen
scattered throughout every section OF
the country. A wide area is covered
by the converging lines of huntsmen on
horseback and afoot. The game will
be shot on the spot if necessary, but
the plan is to drive it toward an eX,
tensive canyon 30 miles north of De,
beque. The walls of the canyon will
prevent further fight from the hunt
ers, who, gradually closing in on the
game, will be able to kill it indiscrim.
inately.
The season is open for elk and other
such game, so that the determination
of wild animals will not be the only
object sought. Game wardens, how
ever, accompany the hunters to enforce
the laws of the state where possible to
do so. The hunters will report at De-
beque, where the association has its
headquarters, as well as large game
preserve. The hundreds of square
miles in the Debeque preserves are
filled with big game, which enjoys i'm
munity from slaughter during most o1
the year.
