new three-act opera entitled The Singing Girl" It will be remembered that last season when the youthful prima donna made her first bow as a star, she appeared in "The Fortune Tel Ter" an opera written by Victor Her. bert and Harry B. Smith. The new opera is also the work of these talented gentlemen and in it's construction they have been aided by another eminent author Stanislaus Stange MT. Stange wrote the libretto of the new opera; MT. Smith wrote the lyrics and MT. Herbert wrote the music. "The Singing Girp has been even a greater success than "The Fortune Teller" and during the past winter 1t played an engagement of three solid months in the metropolis. A great many members of the company which appeared here in "The Fortune Teller" are still in Miss Nielsen's sup port including that magnificent basSo, Eugene Cowles and the clever come- dians, Joseph Herbert and Joseph CaW- thorn. Other members of the organi- zation are Lucille Saunders, one of the most talented contraltos on the light opera stage; George Tennery, remark able dramatic tenor; and John Slavin, who was last season the principal come dian with Della Fox.

BRILLIANT ENDORSEMENT.
By Health Journal of New York, Aug
ust "a, 1881. A. Davis, MD, Editor
and Manager.

Only last week we examined the beer
brewed by the Capital Brewing Com
pany of Olympia, Wash, and it is a
perfect illustration of the quality of
beer which we are always glad to COM
mend, for the analysis showed it to be
entirely free from any trace of any in
furious substance. Such a high grade
of beer is most beneficial in its use, for
none of the pure malt and hops have
been displaced by harmful ingredients.
Every hygienist will concur with us in
saying that a beer of such superior
excellence is a very wholesome bever-
age. Physicians often have occasion
to prescribe a pure beer for cases of
debilitation, and they can safely order
>his beer, made by the Capital Brewing
company.
L. H. Dee has in his keeping the
American Journal of Health and can
De seen by anyone.
This beer can be had in bottle or on
draught at the HOFFMAN, corner of
Hotel and Nuuanu streets. A large as
sortment of the very best of American
and foreign liquors we are pleased to
sell you and give you value for the
Nnefit of your health.

A HERO OF THE PLAGUE.
DR.. Camara Pastana of Lisbon Meets
His Death.

His. Death.
Professor Camara Pestana, the head
of the archaeological Institute of Lis
bon, has met his death through the dis
ease which he was so nobly and active
Iy combating. While dissecting a plague
patient (writes Lisbon correspondent
some of the poisonous matter entered
his finger nails, and his fate was sealed.
Only thirty-six years of age, this man
has for the last four months expended
all his energy and every hour of his
time in the minute study of the disease,
not shrinking from any labor which
might aid him to facilitate the labors
of his friends and colleagues. Two days
after his return from the plague strick-
en- city of OpOrto, the first symptoms of
the disease appeared. He Immediately
ordered his own removal to the isolat-
ed ward of the hospital prepared for the
reception of such cases, and himself
gave the necessary instructions to pre-
vent it from spreading. From that time
to the day of his death the history of
his illness is one uninterrupted record
of self-sacrific. Every symptom which
manifested itself was analysed and
commented upon by the patient and,
when at last there appeared those signs
which his experienced eye denounced
as fatal, he calmly said to those about
him, you can do nothing further for
me now the death agony will soon be-
gin" Then, turning to the doctors, he
gave all directions as to precautions to
be taken, and requested that certain
analyses should be made after death,
the results to be sent to the Pasteur
Institute in Paris, where he had him
self studied. An hour or two before
death the doctor in charge of the plague
patients at Oporto, with whom he had
worked day and night, was announced
Let him come to me-" he said and
then entered into complete diagnosis of
his case, and gave minute instructions
for his funeral, so as to ensure complete
immunity from infection for others. He
died giving a lecture in broken words
and sentences upon his own case, and

SULPHURIC ACID TO BE USED
FOR PURPOSE.
No Building in Infected Districts-The
Period of Quarantine Fixed at Ten
Days-President c. b. Wood

The last official act of Mr.. Cooper as
President of the Board of Health con-
sisted of a presentation of his resigna-
ton to his colleagues yesterday after
" ON Same was accepted with eX-
pressions of regret and thanks for past
services.
As forecasted in The Star of yester-
day DR.. Wood was then nominated and
unanimously elected president. Mr..
Cooper presented the name of the new
man. DIR. Wood took his seat at once,
and in doing so pledged his best SER
vices during the present plague crisis.
1t was decided that no building oper-
ations of any kind be allowed in any
district declared to be infected. A sec
ond resolution applied this rule to the
Chinatown district.
After some discussion it was decided
to sprinkle the streets of infected dis
tricts with a solution of sulphuric acid.
Water carts will be used for the pur-
pose. George w. Smith, druggist and
chemist, was entrusted with this work.
He will prepare the solution and see
that it is properly applied. Streams of
sulphuric acid from water carts will
be an unusual sight.
1t was decided to maintain a special
quarantine for persons of the infected
district who wish it and will pay the
additional expense. Some of the more
prominent Chinese merchants object
to being mixed up with the general
population at the detention camps, and
have offered, through their consul, to
pay the entire expense of quarantine
elsewhere.
The period of quarantine of persons
taken from infected districts was fixed
at ten days.
1t was decided that a diagnosis of
plague by the physicians should be
final and that the same should be so
officially declared upon the receipt of
the report of examiners. Heretofore it
has been the custom to wait two or
three days for the report of the bac-
tarinlngiStS.
