DR.. Adolpho Mercondes de Moura, of

on the application of rattlesnake poison
to the cure Of leprosy to 1.-THE German
Medical Weekly Journal"
This poison has been used for a long
period by the natives for the treatment
of skin diseases and even leprosy. Many
wonderful cures of lepers through rattle
snake bites having been reported to him.
DIR. de Moura set himself to make inves-

fifteen lepers, and he has come to the
conclusion that the lepra tuberculosis,
If not complicated with another disease,
is durable by it's means.
The publication of DR.. de Moura's pa
per has aroused much interest in the
matter in medical circles.
rof. Levin, of Berlin, discusses the
subject in the same number of 1.-THE

gun from place to place. giving the i'm

wind drove the flames back every few

low to bring a larger rope.
A coil of heavy rope was brought and
the hremen grasped the net and all watt

the small rope about the little girls
shoulders and stood watching as alert as

The most pernicious of all the methods
Of the license Office must be that custom
which permits the wholesale liquor deal
er to hold license for the sale of liquors
at retail Next comes the practice of
permitting wholesaler to become bonds
man for an applicant for retail license.
In effect the latter practice makes the
retailer the bondman, for he Is only the
agent of his principal. In the opinion of
members of this committee there should
wholesale dealer must not be allowed to
hold the whip hand over the small dealer,
for to such conditions may be traced
some of the difficulties of the past. When
large dealers are permitted to exercise
leading influence with the licensing pow
er, as may be traced in some instances
submitted herewith, then will the inter-
ests of the small, the retail dealer be
lost to sight.
OF the half-dozen matters treated in
the evidence before the committee and
now in the hands of the House, the COM
mittee wishes to call attention to the
case of w. C. j. Ottman, as furnishing
the most peculiar features. In Novem-
Der. 1899, q light wine and beer license,
as contemplated by law, was issued to
Ottman, he then having place at Wal
kiki, more than the required distance
from the nearest spirituous liquor license,
which in this case was the Hawaiian
Hotel. The strictness of Minister King
was shown when, in measuring the legal
600 feet from the church, Ottman was
required to take straight line, which
left his fence line 592 feet away, instead
of following the road, which would have
given the necessary distance. It was
only by the waving of objection on the
part of the church people that the license
was finally given. Then Mr.. Gilman
went to the expense of building a resort
at cost of $500. For one year he en-
toyed the use of his property and license.
Then came the question of renewal. With
the application approved by the Marshal
the proprietor sent in his formal re-
quest. But a change had come over the
state of affairs. When the light wine IL
eense had been issued there was no Ii
cense nearer than the City proper. Spir-
it's we're sold, 1t was current rumor, on
the strength of an arrangement with the
police authorities, a sort of quasi licens-
ing of two resorts, at the seaside. But
even this was not for long, for both of
those places secured the necessary
amount Of influence to bring about the
extension of the saloon or spirituous
liquor license district from the down.
town section to Waikiki. and the Hotel
Annex and the Waikiki Inn were grant
ed full hotel licenses. In addition, one
of the most fragrant breaches of public
propriety was committed. One of the
largest wholesale liquor houses had OBJ
tanned license for its Beach Hotel. an
other wanted the same privilege. The
government which had forced Ottman to
measure an air line to the church and
had waived the provision only when the
church authorities sanctioned the licens-
ing-this government through Minister

Young, who had succeeded Minister
King. promised to the promoters of a
proposed new hotel a license, granted 1t,
in fact, though there was not built the
hotel In which the license was to become
operative, so the issue coulu not take
place for many months after, and this
was the third license granted within 800
feet of a church, plain violation of the
law-the location for which the Moana
Hotel license was granted being almost
directly across the street from it. The
bugbear of Ottman was no bar to the in
fuence of the hotel men with the Minis
ter.
This then was the condition when Ott-
man, with s., 600 Invested in buildings for
his resort, requested a renewal of his
license, and was met with the remark
that there were three spirit licenses In
