TWO FINE GAMES.
Weiser and Caldwell Meet on the
Diamond

Saturday and Sunday were ball
days in Weiser, and the honors of
the town were well sustained by the
local nine, which twice defeated their
opponents from Canyon. The Cald-
we'll players arrived on the Cannon
ball accompanied by a number Of
friends. 1t was the first time Wei
ser and her neighbor up the line had
contested for ten years, and as Wei
ser did Caldwell up then, she did
Caldwell up now, though there was in
both mines but one player who took
part in the struggles decade ago
that was pitcher Walter Sebree Of the
Caldwell nine.
Saturdays game was well played
on both sides, Caldwell exhibiting
considerable ball ability, but was
evidently out of practice. The Sig
nal undoubtedly furnished the crack
player of the Weiser nine in printer
H. G. Shepherd, who pitched all
kinds of twirlers, and with catcher
Rhea made battery that bewildered
the visitors. The grand stand was
we'll patronized, and was a success in
making up the expenses of the Wis
itors. The score for the two games
stood as follows:

Thanks to the good judgment of DR..
Carmichael and American army sur
geons the news of the appearance of
black plague in Honolulu has not been
presented to the American people in
an exaggerated form. Plain facts have
been stated and Surgeon General Wy
man has given these facts to the public
with the assurance that active meas
ures will he taken to prevent the dis
ease spreading beyond the limits of
Honolulu. The lengthy official state
ments sent out from Washington evi-
dence one Of the many advantages Of
Federal control. The situation is by no
means treated with Indifference, but
the calm judgment Of the officials
makes the alarmist reports of little
avail.

As Part Of Relief Works.
No Funds for Street Extension 49, BerltaBa Street
Widening In MeSheS Of The Law Possible
Rebuilding Of No. Fire House.

Alex. Young, Minister of the Interior
was asked how the article in yester.
days Bulletin, on street extension
jibed with his ministerial mind.
Il wish the editor had gone further,
he replied, and told me from what ap.
preparation to take the money. The
pro rata of roads and bridges would
not be sufficient to do any great
amount of work. Whenever public
work is to he done. however, and funds
are available to do it, it will be put in
hand at such dates as will be suitable
for the condition of those people need
ing employment.
Il was exceedingly pleased to see
the article in the Bulletin advocating
the course o, the Governments en-
| ploying as many of the people dis
charged from quarantine on public
works as might be possible.
For myself | had framed plan a
couple of days ago, and made arrange
ments with the Superintendent of Pub
lie Worns to start Immediately on the
Diamond Head reservoir erecting
camps there to house as many of the
people fitted for such work as might
be commanded. and endeavoring to
keep the people together in camp as
much as possible.
Materials for this work | under
stanu. are on hand, and the work can
be begun as early as any of the people
will be liberated from quarantine.
Houses will also be built Immediately
for that purpose. The Superintendent
Of Public Works and myself will visit
the ground there this afternoon or to-
morrow for the purpose of making
final arrangements
There's work on Beretania street

As matter germane to the inter

ON FREIGHT MATTERS.

Toward the end Of yesterdays Board
Of Health meeting George 4. Garter,
freight agent for the Board, announc-
ed that at a meeting of the planters in
the forenoon and after a very heated
discussion, 1t had been decided to ask
for the shipment from Honolulu Of alb
solutely nothing. II the Board con-
sidered 1t necessary all steamers to the
other islands could be stopped and a
complete isolation OF the port made.
They were willing to stand or fall to-
gether. Mr.. Carter spoke of the nature
of the freight permitted by the Board
and said that 1t was impossible to draw
the line anywhere. II iron was per-
mitted, then hardware should go and
if hardware was permitted why
shouldn't canned goods aud provisions
be sent? ...
80. speaking about the need OF
food for the country districts, Mr.. Car
ter asked that something be done TO re-
lieve the situation there. 1t was fin
ally voted that American canned goods
be allowed to pass into the country dis
tricts after proper fumigation.

HAWAII PARTY IN SAN JOSE.

San Jose, Jan. 81 here was a rather
unique society function at the st. James
Hotel in honor of Miss Abbie Campbell,
the daughter of James Campbell of Ho-
nOlulu, who, in addition to being the pro-
prietor of the hotel, achieved much no.
tOriety through the effects Of Oliver Win.
thrOp to abduct him from the Occidental
Hotel in san Francisco three years ago.
Campbell Is one of the heavy capitalists
in the islands, and his house on this Oc-
casiOn was graced BY many we'll known
names from the mid-Pacifc possessions Of
the United States.
The guests Of honor were Prince David
KaWananakOa, Hon. Samuel Parker and
Hon. Charles A. Brown. both well-knOwn
adherents of the dynasty and opponents of
the overthrow Of Queen LiIiuOkalani. The
Hawaiian Quintet and Glee Club provid-
ed theimusic for he occasion. The decor.
atoms were in semi.tropic style and redol-
ent of the Hawaiian Islands. Norable
among the guests were a number of native
Hawaiian girls, who ale here attending the
Notre Dame Convent. The menu cards
were decorated with the Hawaiian flag,
and the flag OF the little island country
also had conspicuous place in the dec0ra
lions. In many respects the entertainment
was a notable function. Almost the entire
society element OF San Jose was present,
in addition to many rsople from San Fran.

MIR. DOLE AND ELECTIONS.

Mi Dole states. IF the next Legisla-
ture meets under the laws of the Re
public of Hawaii, an election will of
course be necessary" This Is. the ba-
sis of an inquiry to Washington au-
'hority which Mr.. Dole says he has sci
in motion. From the tenor of Mr.
Dole's interview published In his or
gan, it appears that he anticipates the
President will rescind his order de-
claring' the election Off Are our
friends in Washington again to be
treated to the spectacle of the local
Executives personal agent antagoniz-
ing the mandates of the President.
Nothing in the Presidents proclama-
ton was palmer than the statement
that members of the last Legislature
should hold over. Does Mr.. Dole ques-
ton the Presidents right to authorize
those legislators to act?
Whatever the reply made to the in
quiry set in motion, Mr.. Dole may de-
pend upon it that there will be no cleo
ton held in Hawaii while the territor-
ial bill is pending in Congress. If there
is an extra session. the men called
upon to act will DE members of the
1898 Legislature, however disagree
able this may be to the local Execu-
tiye's opinion on the fitness of things,
An election will not be necessary, and
by suggesting such an upset of the
mandates of the President, Mr.. Dole
merely shows the old spirit of antag-
onism TO the Administration that char
acterizes his comments on the land
order.

G. B. Buchanan has been obliged to
suspend his logging operations on
Swan River owing to the lack OF
water. He has succeeded In getting
most OF his logs out of the small
lakes into the main channel OF the
river, those remaining in the lakes
having been doomed to prevent
scattering.
Last week his men built a dam
just below Twin lakes, 20 miles below
the chartered dam at Swan lake, for
the purpose OF keeping what water
they now have. About 10000, 900
are between this new dam and
Swan lake.
No attempt will be made to move
these this year II there is no rain.
All streams in that part Of the state
are dry and all drives are hung up.
In some of the SIN aller STREAMS logs
are piled five and six feet deep and
not a drop of water to move them.
