Plans to do away with the Honolulu
dispensary are causing considerable
discussion owing to the important work
the physician In charge Of this depart
ment Of the Board Of Health has to
DO. A Bulletin reporter. talking with
Or. Sinclair on the matter. was in
formed that the impression that two
physicians are now conducting the
work Is erroneous. When the county
retrenchmept was made no one was
appointed to All Dr. Myers place. thus
leaving all the city physician work to
be done by DR.. Sinclair, whose position
pays 500 q month.
II am afraid the public have an idea
that the city physician does not earn
his salary" said DR.. Sinclair, but 1t
is fact that great deal Of work done
by the city physician is done without
the knowledge Of the public. To main
tain the integrity Of the health Of a
community In tropical city, situated
as Honolulu is. requires constant Wig.

be exercised by the city physician. II

Dog Doomed to Die.

A fox terrier dog belonging to Archie
Pierce, who resides near the corner Of 18th
and E streets northwest, was responsible
for its owners appearance in the Nolice
Court today to answer to a charge of keep
ing fierce and dangerous dog. Pierce de-
MED that the canine was fierce and danger
Gus, but after hearing the statements of
several witnesses Judge Scott decided that
the charge had been sustained. and gave
Pierce the privilege of turning the animal
over to the poundmaster to be killed or pay
a fine of $50. He chose the former alterna-
tive and Judge Scott accepted his personal
bonds, with the understanding that the
death penalty will be carried out.
The charge against Pierce was filed on
complaint of Mrs. Emma H. Butts, a neigh
Dor. who reported that the dog attacked
and bit her small son several days ago.
Mrs. Adelaide Larner, another neighbOr,
also complained against the dog, saying
that it bit her son about a month ago.

AMUSING BROWN BRUIN.
A Good Natured Coward That Will
Fight Ferociously When Cornered.

From the Los Angeles Times.
The brown or black bear of California is
the most cowardly animal that roams the
hills. He is a worse thief than the north
ern wolverine, and at the same time better
natured than half the farm dogs the hunter
chances upon. A pair at play will furnish
more amusement than three ring circus
and run like scared deer If you but show
yourself through the brush; in short, the
brown bear is the most 'amoosin' cuss" OF
all. if approached properly.
But don't be misled into picking fight
with either Of our small bears, unless you
are well armed, for the black or the brown
bear Zone and the same animal under varf-
atoms of pelage) will fight feroctously when
cornered You will come upon them. too.
in the most unexpected places; not even
the willful jacksnipe can beat brown bear
in variability of moods or choice Of feed
ing ground. Travelling in the mountains
one is apt to come upon Sir Bruin drinking
from a little wayside stream. and the very
next day. having descended into the foot
hills, find possibly a pair playing about
some poorly guarded sheep camp.
Good natured as Is either OF these smaller
bears, which weigh from 400 to 500 pounds
apiece. it is best to know how to hunt them
before attempting it. AS with most big
game, the best way to hunt for them for
sport Is alone armed with reliable rife
and a good knife. though there is seldom
occasion for using the latter If the hunter
keeps cool If one Is hunting for hides. or
to rid section of undesirable bear neigh
bors, a well-trained little dog is probably
the best ally. Fox terriers usually are
best, as they are quick, resourceful and
brave to a degree. A little dog brought up
In a good bear country, where he has
roamed the hills all his life, has had the
best training possible, and is a prize to
be taken care of.
AS has been said, black or brown bear
seldom keeps one address long, but likely
most of them just now are down among
the oaks, where the fallen acorns afford
them an easy living. There are possibly
good many along the willow fringes Of the
larger water courses. but once let the bear
get first sight of you there. and he will
make of into a tangle Of elder scrub. will
low underbrush and blackberry vines. in
which you and your dogs will last about
three minutes.
II bear could be persuaded to play foot
ball, he would make the SWEETEST line
bucker ever on a gridiron, judging by the
way he goes through a tangle of under
growth. and the way q bear of any species
viii attend to q dog that dares to follow
him alone into such retreat Ia certainly
0candalous.

port the commissioner decided to cancel the

land to the Standard Cattle Company for
five years, and after acquiring title to the
same to sell 1t to the company.
