The Supreme Court adjourned yes
terday to Friday, August %, after
hearing the concluding arguments in
the Pahia case. Attorney Robertson

ing Pahia to prison, and that the prop
er action to secure a cancellation of

into the merits and evidence In the

submitted himself to the jurisdiction
of Judge Gear He claimed that the
proper remedy in appeal was on writ

MILK IS
BETTER
Report Of theFoo
Commissioner
for July.
VINEGAR SOLD IS
OF POOR QUALITY
Attention is Also Directed to the
Preservation Of Beer by
Benzoic Acid.

The report of the Food Inspector. E.
C. Shorey, for the month of July, which
was submitted to the Board of Health
at yesterdays meeting, shows among
other things great Improvement in the
milk now being furnished to the con-
sumers of Honolulu. The Food Com
missioner states that the average of the
samples submitted during the month is
higher than it has been for some
months. and the efforts of the depart
ment in prosecuting dealers whose
product falls below the standard, are
bringing good results. Three samples
|of beer were examined and one showed
signs Of preservation with benzoic acid,
Ia fact which the commissioner thinks
should be made known to the public.
Attention is also directed to the. vine
gar now being sold here, none of which
1t is reported is of good quality. A rec
standard for all vinegar is made, with
the intimation that it would result in
local factories.
The report is published herewith:

The famous Bassick mine,
around which has grown up the
town of Querida, will, according
to local report, resume work with
in thirty days from this date, with
practically new company organi-
zation. This marvellous mine with
present depth of l,300 feet, has
produced about S9,0OO000. its blue
tellurium quartz having carried to
market by the railroad values of
almoat phenomenal figures. The
mine has undoub btedly larger and
richer ore body than heretofore
tapped, $4,000 quartz being freely
spoken of. while the ore volume
itself includes that of the two orig
inal chimneys and of a third SINH
lar deposit known to exist, but as
yet untouched. while in still farther
addition, one of the original chin
neys has an unworked upraise of
500 feet
The resumed work on the Bas
sick will be watched with pecu-
liar and intensified interest, as the
mine proper is approaching the
l5OO-foot level, at which depth sci
entitc opinion long ago said that
the mine would reach the true gran
ite contact. with a true fssure vein
bearing incalculable gold values
In direct connection with the
renewal of work on the Bassick is
