LITERATURE OF THE CHINESE.

Chinese literature is so extensive that , catalogue of the books in the four inn lerial libraries in the present dynasty ciassifes and briefly describes no less tEan 93. 0O0 books. and itself fills 200 volumes. Although some western writ CTS have described the collection as d V hole as a vast library of Oriental con Ceit and q dreary wilderness of words. the Abbey Remusat. a genuine student of the Chinese language, wrote enthu- siastically regarding their charm. say ing he found in them eloquence and po- ctry, enriched by the beauty of the pie ,uresque language preserving to im- imagination all it's colors. The desrrip- ,ion is a very accurate one. top.-Suc- C, sS

which the plantation people viewed
with suspicion had been Isolated and
that Or. Bake had notified him to give
the Information to the Health Depart
ment without arousing any excitement.
About the same time another report
reached DR.. Wood that a Hawaiian had
been stricken at Aiea. Both reports
were OF such a nature that President
Wood felt II incumbent upon himself
to personally investigate the rumOrs.
Accordingly General Passenger Agent
Smith OF the Oahu Railway placed a
special train at the disposal of Prasl-
dent Wood, and at s o'clock yesterday
morning the latter stepped off the train
at Aioa, the station for the Honolulu
Plantation. The staGon-master had
heard nothing Of the case and neither
had the s.ore-keeper. There was posi-
lively no information TO be gained at
the Honolulu Plantation about the
rurOT6d case there. and the Presiden.
then proceeded TO the Oahu Plantation.
He was met by DR.. Bake. who ex-
planned that one Of the japanese labor
Rrs had been taken sick a. 4 o'clock
Monday afternoon, and under the cir
cumstanCes DR.. Blake did all tina he
felt was proper. The man WIS isolated
and developments were awaited. All
the laborers became frightened and
panic nearly ensued.
"I saw the man." said Presfdpn.
Wood. "and could find in him none OF
the usual plague symptoms. The zeal
displayed by he physician and plan
tation authorities. however, was COM
Eeudable and il shows they are on the

fire, as il was declared TO be infected.
The livery stable premises at King
and Liliha streets, Palama, were next
inspected. These premises were the
sleeping quarters OF the native boy
Kahelilehi, who was a plague victim.
The entire stable premises, beginning
at a point on King street near Liliha,
together with the buildings along the
pond at the rear as far as the Eva side
of Vow KEGS coffee saloon were con-
demned and ordered burned.
Additional action was taken with re-
gard to the lily pond, which contains
stagnant water, and into which the
seepage Of the entire section drains. On
the Eva side are several large yege-
table gardens, separated from the pond
by a dyke. The vegetables and ground
are spTinkled with water taken from
this stsgnant pond, and the vegetables
find sale in all the markets of the city.
The pond was condemned as iusani-
tary, a source Of filth and menace TO
public health. II was ordered drained
and filed forthwith.

inasmuch as the section from Kauma-
kapili Church TO Nuuanu street and
from that point to Kuku1 street has
already been condemned and will soon
undergo the usual destruction by fire.
Merchandise and household goods are
being removed constantly and every
building is being emptied as rapidly as
possible, for the Board of Health real
ICES that the removal OF the people
from Chinatown to another and clean
district will be the beginning Of the
end. They feel assured that with the
denizens of the infected district in the
detention camps. they will then have
the situation well in hand, and can
prevent the further spread Of the dis
ease by destroying the entire district.
That the Board favoTs more rapid
policy in dealing with the question Is
evidenced by the fact that in many
cases personal effects have been or
dered left in the buildings and de-
stroyed. as was done in the case OF
Block yesterday.
From the church the Board drove
over to the section bounded by King
Kekaullke and Queen streets, and pro-
ceeded to the center Of the block.

DEATH CAME.
Continued from Page IL

Board made a thorough investigation OF
the sanitary condition of the surround
ing tenement houses as far mauka as
the Pauoa stream. These premises
were visited when the deaths occurred
and were then found partially clean.
The Celestials evidently felt that the
Board was through with that section,
and have allowed filth OF all sorts to
accumulate. This fact, together with
the undeniable insanitary condition Of
that sub-district. decided the Board to
institute condemnatory proceedings.
A motion was carried by which the
section bounded by the Kaumlkapili
Church enclosure on the Waikiki side
ard extending TO the auwai which emp
ties into Pauoa stream, thence to Achi
lane. thence to Bere.ania street, and
thence 10 the lane first mentioned, was
condemned as being in an insanitary
condition, incapable Of being put into
better condition. 4 second motion was
PASSED declaring the district infected
by plague. and condemned it to be de-
st~oyed by fire at the earliest oppoTtu-
nifty.
In addition to these proceedings the
Board examined in a very thorough
manner the rest Of he block on the
Eva side as far as River street. The
ground throughout is considerably be-
low the street levels on all sides. and
all seepage water is drained directly
into the hollows. and stands in stag
nant pools underneath the dwellings
and places of business. Foul-smelling
cesspOols and closets were found in
such vast numbers and so built almost
within the houses, that the Board took
summary action in declaring this sec
ton in an exceptionally bad Condi-
| ton. and motion was passed to notify
the owners Of the property to have all
/ the tenants removed TO other quarters
which ostensibly will be at one Of the
detention camps, until the property
can be put in sanitary condition. and
fit for people to live in without danger
of catching some disease.

Why He Left.

A dispatch from Athens, Gs., says
the experts appointed to examine the
Athens Exchange bank have completed
their Investigations Of the books of the
bsuk and 6nd Benedict, the cashier
who disappeared several months ago,
over $ll QUO short. 1t will be remem-
bered that the last seen Of Benedict
was st Greenvills, s G. An hour or
80 after he arrived there on Tuesday
afternoon. May % last, he walked out
of the Mansion house, where be had
registered, as if to go to livery stable
to make arrangements for team to
carry him to neighborirg cotton mill.
This was the last seen Of him. His
TWO brothers went to Greenvills and
made a two weeks search for him in
that and neighboring counties. 1t was
not known then that the cashier was
short and his brothers rejected sugges-
ticns Of the kind with scorn and indig-
nation. All sorts of wild stories em-
braciDg supposed elews we're circulated
from day TO day. For almost two solid
weeks the newspapers in this State aud
Georgia contained leading articles con-
cerniog the disappearance. Then the
brothers gave up the search and people
settled down to the theory that first
suggested itself-that Benedict had
run away because he was short.
