the annual report of the COVER

of the Interior Hitchcock Saturday

complete at that time, for Mr.. Cooper.
who Immediately departed that after
noon for his former home in Boston,
planned to write more on, the operations
of the territorial government which
will be inserted in the proofs when he
returns to Washington about Oct. q.
The contents of the document are close
Iy guarded but it is known that the re-
port is very comprehensive, covering
the work of the territorial government
in it's various phases. especially the
operations of the laws affecting public
lands and including several instruction
/ maps. He has also left with the Inter
| of photographs of the enterprises, in
dustries, and people of the islands
which viii be Incorporated in this re-
! port as printed
During all of the week, ending Sat
urday. Oct. 5. Mr.. Cooper was engaged
busily in completing as far as he could
this annual report. He had also to pre-
pare the annual estimates which in
cluded estimates for public buildings
light houses, dredging of harbors, and
other improvements that the govern
ment is expected to undertake. These
estimates, prepared after visit tc
Secretary Gage and several sub-officials
of the Treasury Department were filed
Saturday, Oct. 5, with the chief of the
bureau of warrants and appropriations
of the Treasury Department and will
be printed in full hen Congress has as
sembled. It is altogether probable that
they will be printed in atseparate docu-
ment and not together with the large
! volume OF estimates for all the De-
partments of the Federal government
These estimates were printed separate
" las; year.
Mr. Cooper has asked for large ap-
propriatiops OF money. Ii should be
remembered that Congress may not ap-
propriate all that is asked. Such i:
the case with all government estimates
submitted to that body through the
Treasury Department. However, it is
interesting to know that generous re
quests have been made and that moth
ing has been left undone in that re-
gard.
For Improvement of the harbor oi
HiIo Mr.. Cooper estimates that $500 00(
should be appropriated by Congress
This would be used chiefly in the con
struction of q hreakwater from Cocoa

"A private letter from San Francisco
says:
'The Board of Health have had case
of plague in quarantine here on Sacra-
mento street, for some five weeks and
today they put another house under the
ban. Both the patients are Chinese.
The disease manifests no tendency to
become epidemic. There has been but
little of the time since May, 1900 in
which there have been no cases in quar-
antine and all told there have been less
than forty
THE one patient now on Sacramento
street, has recovered and at all times
during his Illness a large number of
both Chinese and whites had free access
to him. One day at least fifteen doctors
and employees of the Board of Health
were in his room and went and came
at their own pleasure. To that ex-
tent the quarantine was farce"

then to their disgust our, fishermen
discovered that they had left their pai'
on the kitchen mantcl of the under-

and dig a supply in the barn YARD. hut

of the orchardists are not feeling par
ticularly pleased at this long spell of

trees are in blossom. They say that
during the wet weather the wind can
not blow the pollen from one blossom
