Your committee finds that the Govern
ment mas on its hands a complete quar-
antine station outfit at Kalihi of the
value of over s100, 600 on leased ground
| for which 10-year lease was made al
$50 a month. Should another epidemic
occur, this property would be invaluable
1T therefore should be cared for and
kept in repair in such a manner as to be
subject to immediate use. The Superin-
ttendent of Public Works has therefore
considered it expedient to rent the rooms
from month to month at a very low
rental to the poorer classes. by this meth

q time when every possible economy

Health BY this manner it is believed a
larger revenue can be obtained than at

of the Government.

ings, 5000. Your committee finds that
this is for the pay of eleven yardmen at
1910 per month, who have charge OF
the grounds of the Judiciary and Execu-
tive buildings. This is small pay and
there Is considerable work to be done,
and We recommend that the item pass as
in the bin.

grounds. $3.50 per month Your COM
mittee finds that this item of 49, so per
month is TO a resident keeper at the mau-
soleum. and as there are men provided
for the care of the grounds, We recon
mend that the item be stricken out.

buildings, $500. Your committee finds

Senator Achi then presented the fol-
lowing report, which shows careful con-
sideration of each and every item:
Hon. S, e. Kaiue. President.
Sir: Your Committee on the Board of
Health Department, to whom several
items were referred respectfully report
as follows
l. Item 5S2. general expenses, SO, 900.
Upon consultation with the Board we
came to the conclusion that the above
amount ought to be raised to $4,000 The
expenses to be paid out of the above ap-
preparation are advertisement and print
ing. incidentals. stationery and postage,
laboratory supplies and burial of paupers
and morgue expenses.
We also found out that the expenses
for advertising is continually increasing
with the growth of the duties of the
Board; the same way with the expenses
for incidentals.
In regard to expenses for burial of
pauperss and morgue we found out that
buried at the expense of the Board is
greatly. We therefore recon-
mend that the item may be passed at
sla, 600
2. Item 535. medicines for City Dispen-
sary, 5000. The idea of formerapresi-
dent Of the Board was that the Govern
ment physicians in different districts
should supply drugs and medicines, to be
used in their respective districts out of
their own expenses; but the Board in
formed your committee that they found
1t impracticable; and we concur with the
opinion of the Board in that matter; we
believe 1t would be impossible for the
Government physicians to furnish drugs
and medicines out of their nominal sal
aries. We therefore recommend that the
amount may be passed as follows: Medi-
cines, s9,oo0-being the same as inserted
in last Appropriation bill.
8. Item 534, support of non-Ieprous chill
dren, $12, 600 The Board strongly urged
your committee to increase the amount
to $4,000 for the reason that the Board
believe that building for boys ought
to be built at Kalihi We therefore rec
ommend that the item may be inserted
as follows: Support of non-leprous chill
dren and buildings for boys, $4,000
4. Item 535. Insane Asylum, $4,000
The above amount is supposed to be
spent as follows:
