LIQUID AIR CREMATORY.
Will Work Il Revolution in
Present Methods.

The first liquid air crematory in the
world will soon be built in the cemetery
of the Comforter. in Nyack. 1t is pro-
posed to make this cemetery a New
York burial ground, and the crematory
is intended to revolutionize the pres
ent method of incinerating human be-
ings. The crematory will be erected
under the direction of DR.. S. II. En-
mons, who owns the patents covering
the process by which it will perform its
work.
The front of the retort, a furnace, is to
be of glass, through which the process
going on within can be observed. 4
body about to be incinerated will rest
on an asbestos support and will he
covered with an asbestos robe. Liquid
air will then be applied, beginning at
the feet, and within 20 minutes the en-
tire body, including even the teeth, will
be entirely consumed. The ashes can
be removed within five minutes after the
work of the retort is finished.
The company building the crematory
is also erecting similar retort at

corner of the porch have generous
pitchers of iced drinks-lemonade, rasp-

well filled throughout the evening.
With the beverages offer thin sand
chopped nuts, olives, or mayonnaised
lettuce leaf Little home made sponge
cakes are nice by way of an additional
dainty, or the menu may consist of gin
ger ale, crackers, cheese and sailed
almonds. The bonbon dish never goes
wrong at porch party. Dates, stuffed
with marshmallows, are new sugges-
tions for filling it. These dainties are
easily done at home. The stone OF the

penses of the Court of Claims o. the
amout $4,000 is for pay of the court,

DR.. GARVINS NEW DUTY THE COURT Of CLAIMS.
JUST WHAT HE WILL DO IN THE
HEALTH BOARD.
Will Take Executive Work of President
and Will Also Succeed Mr. Reynolds
as Health Agent.

There is a misunderstanding as to
what DR.. Garvin's duties will be as
executive officer of the Board of
Health. Some have thought he would
assume the duties of president, and
others have figured that he would sue
ceed Mr.. Reynolds.
He will do both, the office being a re-
creation from the old system. The du-
ties of the president of the board will
be so divided that the executive part of
it will be handled by DR.. Garvin. The
President will become a mere figure
head, save that he will preside at all
meetings and sign the official papers
of the Board.
Dr. Garvin will also take the work
of Mr.. Reynolds. After the plague is
over this will become his hardest work
L is purposed that in future there shall
be absolute health data, down to the
smallest details, and this will mean
work. Added to this will be the inter-
minable routine of the office of health
agent. 1t is safe to say that DR.. Gar
vim is not taking hold of a sinecure.
Mr.. Reynolds will then be given alb
solute charge of the settlement on Molo-
kai, the Board supervising as before
He will have time to devote a large part
of each month to the work there, whicr
is very desirable at present and in the
future.
1t is not the intention to make the full
change until the plague is over Fol
the present Dr. Garvin will have his
hands full with general Board business
and it may be weeks before he can take
| hold of the entire work
| At the meeting this afternoon The
! Garvin matter will come up and be for
mally disposed of. 1t is understood that
| the Subject of a new president will alsC
! be discussed. George w. Smith anC
1 F. j. Dowrey are mentioned in and ou
\ of the Board for the place. DR.. Woo
said this morning that he does not car,

Fujihara in Jail at Hilo, Charged with
Killing Sakuda-Sakuda's Wife Held
as a Witness.

HILO, March 27.-Fujihara is under
arrest here charged with the murder at
Paauilo last Saturday of Sakuda Min
ezo. The two were laborers on Miss
Annie Horner's plantation. On Friday
Fujihara traded a clock for a shotgun
with a Portuguese. Saturday he went
with Sakuda about a mile from the
ranch to gather feed for the COWS.
About o'clock Mrs. Blaco heard the
report Of a shotgun. Soon afterwards
Sakuda walked into the ranch house and
told the japanese woman that Fujihara
had shot him. That night he died. In
his ante-mortem statement he said
that while standing on a rise of ground
he heard the shot felt the sting of
the wound and saw Fujihara running
away with the gun in his hand.
Fujihara returned the gun to the Por-
tuguese from whom he had secured it,
late Saturday afternoon. 1t was some
what damaged, and Fujihara offered to
pay for the damage, Fujihara was ar
| rested Sunday morning, but denied
having had the gun or knowing any
| thing about the shooting, and also de-
MED that he knew how to shoot, though
| others testify that he was good shot
1t is said that an intimacy has exist
ed between Fujhara and Sakudas wife
and that during Saturday afternoon she
| had absented herself from home. There
are other circumstances indicating that
| she was cognizant of the murder. The
| coroner's jury held her as a witness.

having to close its doors this morn
ing on account of the illness of Sarah
Laa, aged 13, one of the pupls, in the
lane near the. school Early in the
morning parents began to arrive and
take their children away. By noon the
rooms were quite thin.
The Laa girl was taken i'll yesterday
with fever. When examined by DR..
Davis, the sub-maXillary glands were
swollen. This was hard to understand,
and the case was reported one that
would bear watching.
There was no occasion for the alarm
in the school today, however, SO far
as is known. The girl is better and
DR.. Davis is satisfied that there is
nothing suspicious whatever about the
case. The patient was at school on
Friday.

COURT OF CLAIMS.

EDITOR STAR: Is the court of
claims a millionalre's court? 1t was
supposed that it was organized to de-
termine the amount of loss the govern
ment through the Board of Health has
inflicted on individuals. Many of these
individuals lost their all. Many of them
have since been obliged to live in re-
lief camps or by the generosity of
friends and the kindess of the charit-
able. They have with difficulty been
able to get bread. How can these ad-
vance 500, or any other sum, as costs
Is not this an unnecessary hardship
Does it not amount to positive cruelty
in hundreds of cases?
