Of HEALTH
IN REGULAR SESSION

At the Board OF Health meeting yes
terday the decision was reached that
the Act to Mitigate should be carried
out no more. The Attorney General
said that in his opinion the act is con-
trary to the Edmunds law and should
be observed no more. The executive
officer was instructed to discontinue
supervision under the act.
J. A. Magoon appeared before the
Board In behalf Of Lee Chu the Chi
nese who was awarded the contract to
furnish paiai for the leper settlement.
Magoon objected to certain ironclad
provisions In the contract which his
client believed impossible to carry out.
Among these was the clause providing
that paiai be delivered at Kalaupapa in
o fresh condition. AS steamers now
run, II would be impossible to have
paiai arrive at Molokai In good condi-
ton. The matter was referred to DIR.
Sloggett, who with Mr.. Magoon Will
try to induce steamship company to
make q direct run from Honolulu to
Kalaupapa.

A letter from DR.. st. ID. G. Walters,
acting superintendent Of the insane
asylum, called attention to the fact
that the Department OF Public Works

turbance OF the inmates by a thor
oughfare of this sort would be very
detrimental. President Cooper stated
that in company with ]. H. Boyd he
had examined the premises. Mr.. Boyd
said that he would have new route
surveyed preventing the disturbance
pointed out by the physicians.

collectors was held in the office Of
Treasurer Wright. The object of the
gathering was to discuss the income
tax, and make such arrangements as

cuss the matter and to suggest meth
DDS for expeditions working.
The income tax which goes into ef-
feet next month, provides that all in
comes of more than 81. 600 shall pay a
tax of 2 per cent per annum. In order

An entertaining and able address on
THE Value of Higher Education was
then delivered by Prof. David Starr Jor-

with gems of instructive thought and
wisdom and with the spirit of encourage

showing the broader and happier way

plauding the rest OF the bill.
The colored comedian was the hit of
the evening and the rest of the turns
went off satisfactorily enough, though
there was considerable disssatisfacto
felt that the star acts of the perform
ance were left out and Improvement
in the ushers' department IS needed.
Honolulu has been disappointed so
often by performances not being the
same as advertised. that the substitu-
tion OF a not particularly good varie-
ty performance, in place OF the bril-
liantly pictured flying athletes. as ad-
vertised on the posters. created a feel
ing that possibly the combination was
another Mainland fake.
Jordan, interviewed after the per-
formance last night. claimed that tie
show is all that IS claimed for It and
showed numerous commendatory no
tees of performances by the same
company at the Chutes in San Fran
cisco the past few weeks. Everything
worked against us. said the worried
athlete. Il would rather give many
thousand dollars thai. have people feel
that my name was ever connected with
a fake of any kind. Contracts made

company may be more unfortunate
than erring.
Everything is promised to be RENE

bunch lights of their own, and viii use
them if necessary; and Seabury will

Vigorous amendments are certainly

Jordan seems earnest in his protests
to set things right. Last nights per-
fornance from start TO finish, was a
poor substitute for the advertised pro-
gram, but in view of the past reputa-
ton of the management it would Be
only charitable to wait until tonight's
