There have been two suspect cases

ed for positive plague indications. One

tai in Kakaako for treatment,
The most important case is that of a
half native and half Portuguese named
lone, a driver of one of the odorless
excavators. This morning the man ap-
peared at the dispensary for medicine.
Upon examination DIR. Howard found
plague symptoms, locked the man in the
room and later had him removed to the
pest house. The diagnosis is not yet
positive. On account of the suspicion
however, all the men of the garbage
department have been required to oc-
cupy one house and not roam around.
The other suspect case was Japan
ese named Kanaba, aged So, from the
corner of River and Beretania streets.
| A Japanese doctor decided that malar-
ial fever was the cause of death, but
| Dr. Scaparone is not satisfied and an
autopsy will be held.
| A third alarm from the corner OF
| Nuuanu and Merchant turned out not
| to be of consequence.
The woman and child taken from the
Merchant street house are still alive at
the pest hospital, but will die. Both
have the plague.
Two buildings, to accommodate $50
| people, are being built over the tide
water at the shooting battery in Ka-
kaako. They will be occupied by per-
sons from infected houses.
Mr.. Thurston states that the handi-
cap to work at Palama is the difficulty
in getting lumber to the scene of oper-
ations. The road is being extended rap
idly, however, and by tomorrow every
thing will be in good shape. Contractors

MATJ NOT WANTED,

Captain Houdlette of the Mariposa
did not want to take any mail on board
his vessel for fear of making himseir
liable to quarantine. Certificates from
the British Consul, the American Con-
sut and the postmaster-ge were
furnished him, showing that the mali
had been fumigated for three hours.
There were only three bags and Cap
tain Houdlette concluded to take them.
The captain is having a run of hard
luck. First he was transferred from
the favOrite Australia run and sent to
the colonies and then he had to lay our
in the harbor of Honolulu, where he
has many friends to visit

MAsCoTTE AT THE oRPHEUM.

The opera Martha" was repeated
successfully last night and now gives
place to "Moscottee." "Mascottee" for
some reason or other has been by COM
mon consent handed over entirely TO
the comedy element. No one is serious
even the lovemaking is played in hu-
morous vein. The music, too, is light
and catchy, the "gobble-gobble" duet
being always a favorite. One feature OF
the Boston Lyric Company's perform
ance which is daintily fascinating is
the smartly carried out eVolutions of
the dandy Hussars in the last act. A
good laugh is a panacea for many Ills
and will scare away many a microbe
"Mascotte" should prove an exceeding
ly popular card with the Orpheum's
patrons,

BUILDINGS RAISED.

The building of the Henry and Doro-
thy Castle Memorial kindergarten on
King street has been raised about two
feet higher than it was, and a brick
foundation put underneath it. This was
done to raise it high enough above the
ground to make it certain there would
be no question about it's sanitariness.
A new frame building in course of
erection on King street near the Ho-
nolulu Stock Yards Company, has beer
raised several inches above the ground
since the discussion brought out by the
plague has impressed on the public the
necessity for free ventilation beneath
buildings.

Two Horses and a Dray in the Water
1T Brewers Wharf

A horse swimming in the harbor be-
hind a shore boat this morning. The
animal was one of two which backed
off the Brewers wharf with a dray this

out of the water
The dray that was backed into the
water was a ballast wagon, driven by
a Japanese. 1t went off on the boat
landing side of the wharf. One horse was
dragged into the water and the other
held on with his fore feet and managed
to get ash Ore again. The wagon fell
into the water and the driver was
thrown onto the dash board One horse
fell in altogether. A boatman cut him
Loose and led him round the wharves
to the old fishmarket wharf, where he
