1t cannot be stated definitely at

plant will be in condition in a few
days more so that the ore can be
binned, and it is always sampled

SHED TO DRY BRICK.
Winter Cannot Stop Henry Fox
from Doing Business.

An innovation in the brick max
ing industry, so far, at least as
Florence is concerned, has Just
been completed at the brick yard
of Henry Fox, on the bluff north
of town, near the Dorcas mill. 1t
is a brick-drying shed, the first
erected in Florence.
The brick-drying shed makes it
possib BILE to manufacture brick all
the year round, instead of suspend
ing operations in the winter. Up
to this time all brick made in
Florence have been laid upon the
ground, when moulded, to dry
before being kilned, but this con
not be done in frosty weather.
Mr. Fox's drying shed is brick
structure under the floor of which
are heat-conveying fiues. These
are connected with a small furnace
at one end and a chimney at the
other, and in this way the floor is
kept heated. The brick, when
moulded, are laid upon the floor
of the shed and are dried even
more rapidly than when exposed
to the sun outside. 1t is likely
that other sheds will be built here.

THE MIOwERA AND THE HOGAN
MINSTRELS.
AgentA Say the Steamer Had Not Ac-
comnodations for the Colored Troupe.
Travel to Paris.

There was no drawing of the color
line against the Hogan minstrels by
the steamer Miowera, according to the
agents for the vessel. Thomas r.
Walker of Davies e. Company stated
this morning that the real reason why
the theatrical people were not taken
was that the steamer had not accom-
modations for them.
The minstrels paid for through first
class Passage at Sydney, being given
the privilege of stopping over at Ho-
nolulu, Yesterday afternoon, when the
Miowera was coming I'm, they marched
to the Oceanic wharf, provided with the
necessary papers from the doctors,
showing that they had complied with
quarantine rules. Their baggage and
scenery was taken to the wharf and
fumigated, and the band, brilliant with
leis, stood on the wharf and played
while waiting for the steamer. When
Captain Henning got to the wharf he
told the minstrels that he could not
take them. A number of other passen-
gers were taken by the Miowera. The
minstrels think that the color line was
drawn by Captain Henning, and they
have placed THE matter in the hands of
attorney McClanahan, who is preparing
to bring suit for damages.
There was no discrimination against
the minstrels on account of their color"
said Mr.. Walker this morning. "It ap-
pears to have been simply a matter of
accomnodations. The steamer could not
take the troupe because she had not ac-
commodations. Whether the next one
will be able to carry them I cannot say
now. Travel to Paris on account of the
exposition has already set in, and some
of it comes this way"
There are twenty-nine members of
the minstrel troupe, all of whom had
certificates that they had complied with
all the regulations of the Board of
Health, the steamship company, consul
and DR.. Carmichael. Their forced stay
here will be very costly, and will result

CAPTAINS WHO REFUSE TO BE
QUARANTINED
They Think That the Bubonic Baciln
Cannot Live Through Five Months on
the Briny Deep.

Captain Watts of the bark Pactolus,
which is loaded with sugar for New
York, had business ashore yesterday
and came ashore in defiance of quar-
antine rules. There was nothing secret
about it. The captain simply conclud-
ed that it was no use observing quar-
antine when he was to be four or five
months at sea, and he ordered his boat
out and was pulled ashore in broad day
light. AS a result the planters asso-
citation went on the war path and
threats were made that the vessels
cargo would be taken away. The cap
tain's course was approved by the own
er of the vessel, w. e. Mighell of the
California Shipping Company, who has
no use for the local quarantine. Seven
other ships owned by the same COM
pany are in the harbor, all to take
sugar.
Captain Watts has been in quaran-
tine for some days and his vessel has
been fumigated. 1t is claimed that
there iS'no use to quarantine the people
who are on ships that are to be four or
five months at sea. DIR. Carmichael,
however, states that it is to the inter
ests of the community to send vessels
away from here in the best possible
condition, so that there may be no risk
| of stopping sugar shipments. I'VE
! have the same rule for all Vesse Isl said
the doctor, and are simply trying TO
send the vessels away in the best pos
sible conditions as regards health bills.
| OF course any plague there might be
aboard would develop long before a
+ ship reached New York"
! Captain Watts was on shore again to
| day. His vessel is now almost ready
for departure. The fact that he has
/ broken quarantine rules will affect
his bill of health, but the captain thinks
! that when he has crossed the equator
| twice and has spent some weeks bat
tling with storms in the icy latitudes
of the Horn, the authorities at New
York will not think, five months after
he clears from Honolulu, that any
plague bugs" are alive on the bark.
Mighell the ship owner has stirred up
a lot of opposition to quarantine, as he
is emphatically of the opinion that 1t
should be pau" The masters who are
going round the Horn do not object to
fumigation so much, as that kills the
rats, but they decline to observe the
rule of staying aboard after loading.

ALL OF ITS DIFFICULTIES
CLEARING.
Whole Trouble Appears to Have Been
Due to Doubtful Enterprise of DR..
Ii Khai Fai.

Indications are that the Bow Wong
Progressive Association will now get it's
charter without further trouble. The
matter was further considered by the
Cabinet this morning and taken under
advisement until Monday, but indica-
tions are that the charter will not be
longer delayed.
1t now appears that one DR.. Ii Khai
was the cause of all the misunderstand-
ing and trouble. This man came here
about three years ago from Hongkong
and has since paid visits to San Fran
cisco as an organizer of political socie-
ties. He it was who took the initiative
in working up the Bow Wong Associa-
ton. Local Chinese were impressed
with the ideas presented by him and
supported the movement. At that time
there was no suggestion or thought of
politics in connection with the matter
and not until a few weeks ago did this
thing crop out.
After getting the society started, as
he thought, DIR. Fai issued a circular
heralding it's strength and purposes,
stating the latter to be the support of
the Chinese Emperor, etc. Appended
to this circular appeared the names of
all the Chinese citizens who had signed
the roll of the organization. At the
same time DR.. Fai got up a set of by
laws, which was the same as reached
the Chinese consul and which went to
the Government a little later.
AS soon as the Chinese found out
what had been going on they repudi-
Gated DIR. Fai and his constitution, or
set of bylaws. Continuing their old
organization they prepared their own
bylaws, the object of which is the in
tellectual and moral advancement of
the Chinese, and that only.
This morning DR.. Fai and Yak Nam
were. before the Cabinet on the matter
The latter is one of the heads of the
local association. w. r. Castle and w.
A. Henshall appeared for the associa-
ton and Paul Neumann for the CON
sui. The evidence educed showed the
situation to be as above stated. There
is no objection on the part of the Cab
met to the bylaws as now presented.
The association also stated that if the
name is Objectionable it will be chang
ed. This will probably be done.

BELIEVED TO BE INTERNAL
INJURIES.
Doctors Puzzled over It-Patient at
Ago-The Man Will Die.

There is a case at the drill shed camp
today that has given more or less an
noyance to the doctors of the Board of
Health since Tuesday While the case
is not believed by the physicians to be
one of plague, it has been hard to de-
termine just what the ailment is.
The patients name is Tom Norman,
negro, native of jamaica, aged Go. He
was unable to hold anything on his
stomach. At noon his temperature was
105, and he was only partially conscious.
Death will almost certainly result dur
ing the afternoon or evening.
DR.. Davis was puzzled over the case
yesterday. In the afternoon he called
in Dr. Jobe for a consultation. At that
time the man was conscious and dec
Jared that he had absolutely no pam.
A friend of his stated, howeeere, that he
had been complaining of severe palms
in the lower part of his chest. Indica-
tions were of bronchial pneumonia; no
signs of lobar pneumonia. At the same
time, an internal injury may be the
cause.
1t is learned on the best of authority
that the darkey sustained a severe ac-
cident a few days ago, which would
give emphasis to the theory that he is
suffering of severe internal injuries in
the region of the lungs. He is a steve
dore, and while assisting in the dis
charging of coal was accidentally
struck on the back just below the neck
by a filled basket, and was thrown
heavily upon the wharf.
1t is the intention of the Board of
Health to have a post-mortem eXami-
nation as soon as death occurs, as the
doctors say they will not sign a GER
tificate. Health circles generally have
been very quiet today. Not a single
cas- of illness, other than the one above
has called for much attention

DIR. WOOD LOOKS AFTER THE
MIOWERA.
Honolulu's Turn at Self-Protection
Measures-sydney's Failure to Give
Facts the Subject of Protect

1t is Honolulu's turn to quarantine
against Sydney now, and Sydney is
not doing anything to make the quar-
antine against her any easier The
Miowera came in yesterday afternoon,
as the Moana did on her last trip with
no statement on her bill of health show
ing the conditions at Sydney. DIR.
Wood boarded her with the pilot, and
he had hard time getting at the facts.
To the question "How many deaths?"
there were several different answers. 1t
was stated that there We're twenty
seven cases in the Sydney plague hos
pital. How near is the infected dis
trict to the water front?" asked DR..
Wood.
The answers We're a mile, half mile
and two miles. DR.. Wood could take
his choice. When he had found out
what he wanted to know the doctor
was questioned about Honolulu
There's no difficulty about getting the
facts here" said DR.. Wood, and he drew
from his pocket a statement, type
written that showed a complete his
tory of the health conditions for several
months back. You don't need to be
afraid of us continued the president
of the Board of Health. 1T is Homo
lulu that has to fear you. There's
more plague in Sydney than there ever
was here" Before leaving the steamer
DR.. Wood gave orders prohibiting the
discharging of any of the Sydney
freight. except coal and the refrigerat-
ed meat, and the Miowera took the stuff
she had for here on to Victoria
quarantine against the steamer,
and not to protect her from Honolulu,
was established as soon as she came to
the dock. Three guards We're on duty
keeping people off the wharf and if her
officers had wanted to come ashore or
to receive visitors they would not have
been allowed to do so. 1t was a COM
pletc reversal of the conditions that
have prevailed for the past few months,
and quarantine officer Campbell was
advised to turn the rat-guards so that
| they would stop rats from leaving the
ship rather than prevent shore rats
from going on board. The vessel was
allowed to discharge some coal, and one
of the officers sarcastically asked DR..
Wood If he didn't fear that there might
be rats in the coal.
Through the consul = protest has
been made against the failure of the au-
thorities at Sydney to furnish proper

what the situation there is. Their ac.
ton is in striking contrast to the course

interesting. 1t Is to auction off the
privilege of sending the first message
over their lines to amy point in the Is
lands, limited to one hundred words,
the proceeds to go to charity to be
determined upon later The bidding
will undoubtedly be lively, not only for
the novelty of the thing, but for the re-
quirements of some people that may
arise at the moment.

tralia that the experts are on the way
and will arrive by the Moana. They win
