ed to the Legislature with the endorse
ment of Governor Carter and the sum
of $500 appropriated for the work.
"Dr Jordan, on being notified of this
action on the part of the Territorial
Government, selected Mr.. Alvin Scale,
a man of wide experience with the fish
of tropical waters, to undertake the
work. The highly successful introduce
ton of the fish has proved the wis
dom of DIR. Jordan's choice.
"Mr. Scale some two months ago
started from Stanford University on
his journey of collecting the fish and
at once bumped into the rigid quaran-
tine in the state of Louisiana, the place
from whence he originally intended to
collect the desirable species! Failing
to reach Louisiana. he started from
South Indiana, where he found the spe-
cies he wanted, and worked from there
south. His idea was to go as far south
as he could in order that the tempera-
ture of the water where the fish were
gathered would correspond more nearly
with the waters of these islands. Here
again Mr.. Scales knowledge of our To-
cal conditions was invaluable. since a
sudden change of temperature from
one water to another might bring dis
aster to the experiment.
"At Galveston, Texas, the proper
conditions were found and, after ex-
periments to decide the best condi-
tions under which the fish could be
transported, collections We're made and
the journey to these islands was begun.
Three species of killies or top minnows
| we're selected. not only because of their
hardness but especially from the fact
that their food consists almost entirely
of the larvae of mosquitoes. 1t was
thought at first that he might be able
to introduce some sticklebacks, but in
vestigations proved that these species
under certain conditions would feed on
the eggs of other fish. The sticklebacks
were therefore excluded from the col
lections.
"a nursery has been started at Mo-
analua, where the major portion of the
fish was liberated. Some were plant
ed in the lily pond at Waikiki and
others in a special pond of brackish
water in Kapiolani Park, where they
will be under the care of Superinten-
dent Young.
II should like to say that / would he
very sorry If the people of this Terri
tory got the idea that these fish will
relieve them of the responsibility Of
their own dooryards and premises
These fish are for the many ponds
pools, rice fields, taro patches, irriga-
tion bitches, still streams and stan ling
water in the outlying districts. and will
insure freedom from invasions to the
residential portions from those mos
quito-breeding sources, after the vari-
Gus communities have freed their own
houses and premises of inviting water
containers.
After the fish are established they
will be distributed to the various dis
tricts of the islands,"

BEISSEL
TO DR.. BOND

Dear Mr.. Bond: You find that the
conclusions 1 drew of your confessions
are exaggerated. Let us see. Your
knowledge of the mistaken identity"
was the key to lay open the mystery
of Father Damien's blackmatlngs.
You stated your correspondence with
Dr. Hyde on this matter. You stated
that you were also for some tin,e under
erroneous impression of Father Da-
mien's guilt CYou don't like the public
to know this last statement. But
hasn't it right to know the truth in
this matter? Well, 1t was on the same
sheet that you authorized me to pub
lish without noticing any restriction;
handed 1t over to the printer, who, of
course, printed all that was written oil
it,
Now. If your correspondence with
your friend DR.. Hyde had led him to
correct his falsehoods, how much
would everybody have been pleased to
give you credit for such an effort for
good But, unfortunately. our com
munity has not received this satisfac-
ton. On the contrary, the ISLANDERS
have been repeated over and over
again; for instance, in the Bishop Mu-
scum, a couple Of years ago, in pres
ence of some visitors.
But your correspondence with Dr.
Hyde, as well as your tardy revela-
tion of the mistaken identity" seems
to show your intimate impression that.
there being merely case OF mistaken
Identity" the difference is hardly
worth mentioning. Consequently nei-
ther DIR. Hdye nor yourself before June
goth offered any correction. And where
you did at length, you expected me to
answer just with a smile; but, con-
fess, could not see 1t in that light.
| Now, unless you produce your cor
respondence with DIR. Hyde on the sub
ject, the community will be left in the
dark as to whether he received from
you his very first, or his corroborating.
Information in his false accusations Of
Father Damien, and consequently also
about how to draw the line OF pro-
portionate responsibility.

From Saturdays Advertiser.)

One of the Alameda's passengers
yesterday was Albin Scale, formerly of
Bishop Museum, whose mission is de-
scribed above.
Mr.. Scale brought his mosquito-de-
stroying fish through all right. They
were landed from the Alameda ''in
first-clas order and condition" as
President Pinkham of the Board of
Health yesterday afternoon informed
an Advertiser reporter.
No time was lost in beginning a dis
tribution of the fish. ID. L. Van Dine
entomologist of the U. S. Experiment
Station, who has taken a steady inter-
est in the mosquito campaign from the
start, assisted Mr. Scale in depositing
a portion of the killifish--as their popu-
lar name goes--at Kapiolan Park and
a greater portion at Moanalua.
And no time was lost by the mali
hini fishes in getting to work. Those
put into the Moanalua ponds instantly
on striking the strange water vigorous
ly dashed after their prey. 1t was a
sight. the way thy gobbled up every
nucleus of larvae.
"Mr. Scale and Mr.. Van Dine will
look over the islands for the waters in
tageously placed, both for increase and
for destruction of mosquito larvae"
Mr.. Pinkham stated.
Mr.. Van Dine, having sought for fur
ther information on the interesting i'm
portation, showed the reporter speci-
ments of three species of the fish pre-
served in vials. They are about an
inch and half long, grayish in color
with variant markings. Their respec-
tive scientific names are Gambusia af-
finis, Mollienisia latipinna and Fundu-
lus heteToclitus.
Yes, the notwithstanding fish came
through in fine shape" Mr.. Van Dine
said, "and have already eaten thou
! sands of the young of our mosquitoes.
/ watched them eat several hundreds
myself and am confident that If they
can be established they are what we
require.
"Of all natural enemies of mosquitoes
certain fish are the only ones that 1t
is practical to consider in the campaign
against this pest. Some four years ago,
when the work was first begun on the
local problem, it was found that we had
only the goldfish-with the possible ex-
ception of certain oopus or gobies-
which fed upon mosquito larvae. and
the matter was taken up with DIR. Da-
vid Starr Jordan. the American author
| ity on fishes.
1.-The matter was followed up care
fully and when DIR. Jordan was down
here recently, on the sad mission re-
lated to Mrs. Stanford's death, it was
further discussed and definite arrange
ments were made whereby an assistant
of the United States Fish Commission
could undertake the work II the Terri
tory would see that funds, simply for
the expenses of the undertaking, were
forthcoming. The matter was present

BOND DENIES THAT
he TOLD DR. HYDE

Editor Advertiser. In justice to my
SELF Will you permit me to say that
Mr.. James c. Beissel's accusation of
me in your Sunday issues of August
Goth and August 9th. as having been
DR.. Hyde's inrormer IN the Damien
aifYir, was entirely unwarranted. The
more natural and the correct deduction
from my letters in the Gazette of June
2tlh, and Sunday Advertiser of August
goth. would have been, not that / gave
O-. Hyde Incorrect information, but
that when he wrote to me to know
what was wrong with his statement
concerning Father Damien, which had
been disputed. my answer was that he
had got the wrong man. Mr.. Beissel
had no right to give to the public, as
he did in the Sunday Advertiser of Au-
gust goth, anything more than the brief
correction, over my full signature, of
an error of one word in my previous
letter. 1t must have been very mani
fest to him, from the context and con-
dition of the manuscript, that all else
was intended to be as confidential as
1t was irrelevant to the purpose of that
letter. E. C. BOND.

county Attorney, is at hand. The
Treasurer has held up Douthitt's war
rant for 'uncidentals.' amounting 10
szoo 1t was only day or two ago
that Douthitt told Trent that he
tTrenD would have to engage private
counsel to defend him In a euit brought
against the County Treasurer by At
torney McClanahan. The suit was
merely to restrain Trent from paying
$l41 on warrant issued to Road Su-
pervisor Andrew Adams of waialua.
The "incidentals." it lis understood.
represent a sum which Douthitt asked
the Supervisors to let him have to put
In his desk drawer to pay out in police
matters, obtaining information, etc.
And now Trent won't pay it. Trent
says the law is that he may pay out
money for accrued" but not "accru-
ing" expenses. Treasurer Trent yes
terday sent the following communica-
tion to Mr.. Douthitt:
Chapter 81 of the County Act in de-
filming the duties of the County At
torney, says:
Section 90. He shall give when
AS4ohCN anu WltHOut lee Ills ODlD-
ion in writing TO the county off,

ties of their respective offices.
Awaiting myself of this section of the
law. 1 wish to ask you to kindly ad
wise me In writing whether or not :
should pay Auditors Warrant No. 1879.
issued under date of September s, to
Il. A. Douthitt, and being in form as
follows:
Demand of County Attorney e. A.
Douthitt on the Treasury of the Coun-
ty OF Oahu, Territory of Hawaii. for
the sum of two hundred dollars, being
for materials and supplies as follows:
Fund or Appropriation: County At

tai, $4,000.

ed by me, $4,000.
(Signed GEORGE w. SMITH.
I shall be most happy to pay this
warrant ON receipt of your favorable
opinion. being moved to ask therefor
by the wording of Section 76 of the
County Act, which reads as follows:
Section 76. All warrants shalI
distinctly specify the liability for
which they are drawn and when
the same accrued.
To- my dull mind the words, "Alr
warrants shall distinctly specify the
liability for which they are drawn
make the warrant in question a little
doubtful In its present form. And them
the further requirement that the war;.
rant shall also distinctly specify when
the same (meaning liability accrued,Y
indicates to my mind that the inten-
tion Of the law is that the liability
should accrue before the warrant is
drawn.
No doubt you can clear up these little
questions in very brief opinion and on
receipt of same, in such form as to.
hold me harmless in case the legality
of the warrant should ever be called
in question, I shall very cheerfully
hand you over the two hundred dol
lars.

CYPRIAN
BEES HERE

Frank Benton, in charge Of apicul-
ture in the Bureau of Entomology, u.
S. Department of Agriculture, will visit
Hawaii shortly on a tour of investiga-
ton around the world.
Hawaii has been favored since an
nexation by practical attention from
the Department of Agriculture. espe-
cially among Federal departments. The
Territory had the direct assistance of
Clifford Pinchot, head of the Bureau Of
Forestry. in the Inauguration of It's up
to-date forestry policy, the chief not
only having visited the islands but sent
| q specialist (Mr. HalD to report on con-
ditions, who in turn recommended an
able expert in the person of Mr.. Hos
mer to superintend Hawaiian forestry
work. No time was lost after annexa-
tion in establishing an agricultural ex-
pertinent station. A $4,000 annual sub
sidy to an agricultural college, when
ever the Territory is ready. has long
been dangled before the eyes of the
local government. There have been
visits and reports from able specialists
other than those above mentioned.
Now Mr.. Benton is coming and he has
already shown a practical interest In
the Hawaiian bee-keeping industry.
Yes, we are doing a little." o. st.
John Gilbert said yesterday afternoon
when held up by a reporter for the
latest in local agriculture. Mr.. Gilbert
is treasurer Of the Sandwich Island
Honey Co. and has just returned from
trip to the mainland.
1--WE are at present experimenting
with the Cyprian bee." Mr.. Gilbert
L.. An
energetic bee, of which we have secured
a couple of queens.
"The credit for the experiment is
due to Mr.. Benton, head of the agricul-
tural division of the Department of Ag-
riculture in Washington. He wrote to
me suggesting that we take up the Cy-
prian bee. His division had ben expert
menting with it.
"Mr. Benton will be here soon, on his
way around the world investigating"
That the honey industry of Hawaii
| is not to be despised may be conceded
when 1t is stated that the exports of
honey from here to the mainland for
the year ending June 30, 1905. amount
ed in value to $21,977 against $14,S46 for
the year ending June 80, 1904, an in
crease of nearly 81 per cent. in one
year. Besides this creditable export
the home consumption of domestic
honey must be very considerable.
Governor Carter. by the way, yester-
day expressed much interest in an ar
ticle on stingless species of honey bee
which he had read in the latest issue
of Country Life in America. The Gov
ernor says the Cyprian bee is fero-
cious stinger.
