HIS EAR WAS
CUT IN TWO

Castino. a part Spaniard, came to
the police station yesterday morning
and wanted to have a native girl ar
rested for assault with intent to COM
NIT murder. He was a horrible look
ing sight. Blood was streaming down
his face, and one ear was cut almost
in two. The side of his head was al
so laid open.
Casino told the police that he had
been sleeping in a room in Kakaako
when he was attacked by woman
who wanted his money. He said he
was knocked almost senseless by the
force of the blow, and awakened only
in time to see the native girl disap-
nearing from the vicinity of his room
Casino was sent to Queens hospital
in the patrol where his torn ear was
sewed up and he was put TO bed Then
the police started out to investigate
the matter They found the girl with
out any trouble, but she told an en-
tirely different story and was corro-
borated by the neighbors, She said
she was in her room when Castino

his head through the window she
gave him a blow on the face

( of Health. Just what the expenditure
will be is not definitely known, but
the standing committee is composed
of men of business ability and inte-
gritty and whatever recommendation
for the expenditure of money, will be
by and with the advice and consent of
this committee.
1t is the purpose of the Board of
Health to get out instructive circulars
for general distribution. 1t may be
necessary for the Board to pass fur
ther rules and regulations to better
control the sanitary obstacles which
may be presented. 1t is a wise meas
ure to have the cooperation of the De-
partment of Education to assist by
educating the pupils Of our Terrific
rial schools, in the, reasons for and
methods of exterminating the pests.
AS there is a great deal more to be
said on the subject and which will be
brought forward by other speakers,
1 would summarize as follows:
SUMMARY OF OBJECTS.
1. We do not propose to extermin-
ate mosquitoes in the entire group of
Islands. We propose only to deal
with them in the town in which we
live and it's suburbs.
2. We do not fiatter ourselves that
it is possible to get rid of every mos
quito, even in this city. We aim at
reducing the number of insects as
much as possible.
3. We do not think it absolutely pos
sible to drain, or otherwise treat, ev-
cry breeding place in town. We aim
at dealing with as many as possible.
4. We cannot exclude mosquitoes
which may just possibly be blown into
the city from long distance. We con-
tent ourselves with preventing the in
sects breeding in the town, itself.
SUMMARY OF METHODS.
/. We start work at once with
whatever means we can scrape to-
gether.
3 We operate from a center, out
wards.
8. We clean houses, back yards and
gardens of all rubbish; empty tubs
and cisterns containing larvae, or de-
stroy the larvae in them, by means of
kerosene OIL
4. We propose to show people how
to do these things for themselves and
how to protect tubs and cisterns by
means of wire gauze.
5. See that the premises that have
been cleaned, are gone over and over
again.
6. Fill up or drain away all pools,
bitches, old cesspools. especially those
which contain most larvae.
Z. Such pools as cannot be filed up |
or drained to be cleared of weeds, if |
they contain larvae.
g. Streams and water courses which |
larvae, to be trained"
g. When we can do nothing else, to |
destroy the larvae periodically, with |
oil, or by other means.
10. We will endeavor to interest our |
neighbors in the work, and to educate |
the town into maintaining a special
fund for the purpose of prosecuting
this work indefinitely. The Board of
Health has no special appropriation
that can be used for this purpose.
Our motto should be the first law of
tropical sanitation; namely, mo stag
nant water"

An interesting letter accompanied by
translated clipped article from La
Union, leading paper OF Valparaiso,
has been received by Mrs. w. T. Chut-
ter OF Astoria from the South Amer
lean city, The correspondent is Cap
tain Alexander Young, master of the
British bark Poltalloch, former Wis
itor to this port. The vessel was at
Astoria during the last regatta held
here, and that time her gallant skip
per made many friends among local
residents. He took an active interest
in the regatta events and the signal
success met with on that occasion was
due not a little to his valuable services
so agreeably rendered.
The La Union article is on the great
hurricane that recently swept the VAL
paraiso port with such devastating eff
feet and In which 1t Is to be remem-
bered that the Brltist ship Foyledale,
that sailed lumber laden from this
port, was made total wreck. While
Captain Young is very modest about
the part ne played in the hurricane,
the La Unions praises are unstintedly
in his favor,an as an expression of his
appreciation for the interest his friends
taks in him and his movements he has
mailed them copies of the appended
story.
