GETS A
FAVORABLE
VOTE
Supervisors Endorse His
Appointment and
Vote Salary.

Arthur M. Brown was last night
formally endorsed by the Board of Su-
pervisors as prosecuting attorney for
the District Court in the County At
torney's office. The endorsement was
given on a four-to-three vote. By the
same vote his salary was passed at
$I75 a month Archer, Cox, Dwight
and Kealoha voted in favor of the
Brown appointment and salary; Fern,
Harvey and Hustace were in opposi-
tion.
The matter came up on communlca-
tion from the County Attorney asking
that his appointment of Brown be con-
frmed. Chairman Hustace promptly
ruled the communication out of order,
as matter that had been up before
and settled.
This started the mutiny of the Board,
which voted against Hustaee on every
| other proposition that came up. Archer
challenged his ruling on the communica-
tion and was sustained by the Board.
Hustace said that the only way the
matter could come up legally would be
for someone who had voted against
| Brown to move that the matter be
reconsidered.
Cox announced that he was such a
one and moved reconsideration, which
| Archer seconded. In making his mo-
| tion Cox explained that he thought the
| County Attorney should be free to make
his own appointments and be then held
responsible for all that happened. Hus-
tace explained his position again, point
ing out that the Board was responsible
| in endorsing the appointment and IN
the final analysis responsible anyway
| for all the departments.
Cox failed to agree and then Hus-
tace failed to agree with Cox and the
discussion between, the two dragged out
to some length, being finally brought
| ~ dn SuA py ~
| calling the Chair s attention to the fact
that there was motion to vote on.
81 know it Mr.. Dwight, as well as
you do" answered Hustace, "and !
have as much right to make some re-
marks on the motion as anyone. If
you want to railroad this thing through
though, l will put the motion"
The vote was called and declared
lost by the Chair. Archer demanded
that the ayes and noes be called and
this led to another discussion, in which
Archer won out.
"You hear five ayes and one no and
then you declare the motion lost, com
planned Archer.
The rollcall found the Board divided
four to three in favor of Browns aP-
pointment.

Hundred Strong.

\ Seattle Daily Times, October %: In

Assumed the Duties on the
Departure of the
Alameda.

Governor Frear remained at his Of
fee in the Capitol busily engaged in
completing matters demanding his at

of the time the Alameda was sched-

he went to the wharf where great
MANY friends had gathered to bid him
goodbye. He was speedily loaded
with leis, though he was one of the
last of the passengers to go aboard.
Private Secretary Mcbride looked af-
ter all the matters of luggage and such
things. Secretary Mott-Smith and At

wharf, and went aboard the steamer
to bid their chief goodbye. Then they
took a hack and returned to the Capi-

At the Capitol things went on in
very much the usual way. only for al

DEPORTED PEOPLE
BACK 1T HOME

A cablegram was received yesterday
by Richard Ivers from Henry Vida,
announcing the safe arrival of himself
and the party he was conducting back
to Malaga, Spain. This word is very
pleasing to the members of the Terri
torial Board of immigration, Vida be-
ing in charge of number of deported
Spanish immigrants. From the tenor
of the despatch 1t is supposed that ev-
erything has gone well with him and
with NJ A. Silva, who is conveying a.
party of deported Portuguese to Fun
chal.
The Territorial Board of immigration
was liable to a penalty of $500 head
for any of the deported ones should
they escape from the custody Of their
guards during their long trip across
the continent, and the cable received
yesterday has lifted a load of appre-
hension from them, it being well
known that some of the deported ones
had stated their intention of deserting
the party on the mainland If given any
opportunity.

APE INOCULATED
WITH LEPROSY
Two Series of Fascinating Experiments Being
Conducted by DR.. Goodhue at
the Settlement.

skin of a Ieper. He has no difficulty
for this purpose. From these blisters
he secures from five to eight ounces of
a serum which is especially rich in the
bacilli of leprosy, because it is at the
points where the bacilh are most nu-
merous that the system directs and
develops the anti-toxin principle. The
bacilli being slightly, though infinites-
imally, heavier than the serum, are
separated from it by centrifugal force,
just as the water is driven from the
clothes in a modern laundry by CEN
trifugal wringer. In the case of the
serum the centrifugal apparatus makes
several thousand revolutions minute.
When the serum is entirely free from
the bacilli. as shown by the micro
scope, it is introduced into the sys-
tenn of the patient upon whom the ex-
pertinent is being tried. 1t is intro
duced by hypodermic injection in con-
Stan[Iy increasing QudheA|iSS'
serum treatments are followed by
reaction of slight fever, showing that
there is some anti-toxic effect, such as
would be expected from the hypothesis
of the experiment, and the continued
use of the serum has been followed
by many evidences of improvement.
DIR. Goodhue believes there is very
much in the results of these expert
ments, so far achieved, to encourage
further experiment and effort.
In addition to these experiments DR..
Goodhue is continuing the eucalyptus
and chaulmoogra oil treatment. In
this treatment eucalyptus oil is ad-
ministered externally and by means OF
baths, together with doses of chaul-
moogra oil and strychnine taken in
ternally. Very marked Improvement
has almost invariably followed this
treatment.
DR.. Goodhue expects to return to the
settlement on Friday going from here
tn I,ahaina and from there taking the
Twalani to Kaunakakai and thence
across the island and over the pail in
to the settlement.

The anthropoid ape, which used to
excite curiosity at the Kaimuki Zoo,
sis now the subject of pathological and
archaeological experiment at the Leper
] Settlement. He has been inoculated
with leprosy.
The monkeys, which were fellow
curiosities with him at the Zoo, will
shortly suffer the same fate. They are
all to be subjects of most interesting
series of experiments which DR.. Good
hue is conducting at the Settlement.
The anthropoid ape was inoculated
about month ago, primarily to deter
mine whether the disease can be trans
mitted to his kind or not; and the ex-
periments of inoculating the monkeys
will have the same purpose. When this
is once demonstrated, baeteriologleai
science has an abundance OF other ex-
periments and processes to make, fol
lowing along well-determined lines, from
which it may well be hoped that a
means of cure of this dreaded disease
may be found.
But DIR. Goodhue in addition is ex-
perimenting along an entirely differ
ent and quite novel hypothesis, though
it. too. is fully justified by recognized
biological and physiological laws. These
experiments start primarily from the
known fact that whenever the bacilh
of a disease are introduced into the
human system, the system at once seeks
to defend itself~by the production OF
an anti-toxin,-an enemy or corrective
of the bacillus of the disease intro
dueed 1t is because of this principle
that it is possible to produce and secure
the anti-toxin of diphtheria. 1t is be-
cause of this principle that other anti
toxins are produced. It is on this prin-
ciple that the whole theory of serums
are founded.
DR.. Goodhue's experiments have fol-
their object the development of an anti
toxin serum which win be effective fol-
the cure of leprosy.
In carrying out these experiments ne
proeures a serum by blistering the

Death of Mrs. S. N. Gardner.

8 Sarah Amanda Spurgeon was born at
Cicero, Hamilton county, Ind, June %,
1881. Came to Iowa with her parents
June 13, 1855. Was married February G.,
1873, to Sylvester Emmett Gardner, who
preceded her to the spirit land almost Z
years ago. After their marriage they
moved to Kansas for short time, but
returned to Iowa and resided north of
Leon. They were the parents of five
children: Austin, who died April Ia,
1877; Albert, Blanch, Ethel and Roy,
who are present with us today. She and
the four children moved to Mitchell.
South Dakota, March, 1898, then to
Reciure July, 1906, where she passed
away January 20, 1907.
She became member of the Christian
church when a girl of about IA years of
age. She remained member of tn;
church until her death.
Certainly if ever there were those
who fulfilled the Scripture: "Pure re-
ligton undefiled before God and the
father is this: To visit the fatherless
and widow in their affliction and to keep
himself unspotted from the world" it
was she and her loved companion. Ever
ready and willing, never too busy and
never too cautious to do their duty and
even at the risk Of exposure to them
selves. Certainly the many loving re
membranes which comes to show their
respect and gratitude speak more than
words can tell.
Funeral services were held at the
Christian church January y at 2:3O p
m. after which loving hands laid her
away to await resurrection morn when
Christ shall call forth her sleeping
form to be with him.

taken to New Mexico in search of health,
but her frail body had succumbed to
consumption and all that medical aid
and loving hands could do was of no

WHICH HAS MAIL CONTRACT?
Route Holds Through
TransCOntlnental Business.

Which road has finally received the
mail contract from Chicago to Omaha,
the Rock Island or the Burlington?
asks the Ottumwa Courier. Early last
week advices were received from Bur-
lington to the effect that the Burlington
road would be awarded the job. Two
days later notices were sent out, from
Omaha stating that the contract had
been given to the Rock Island road on
the ground that they had been running
true to their schedule and had been ar
riving in Omaha an hour earlier than the
Burlington train. Now, from Burlington
authority, the following is sent out un-
der yesterdays date.
According to advice received from
Chicago, the new Rock Island fast mail
train has been awarded the pouch mail
from Chicago to Omaha, but the trans
continental mail still remains with the
Burlington. This concession from the
government does not decrease the
amount of mail to be handled by the
Burlington to any degree, but it will
affect the new contract which the
government is to make with the railroad
this spring.
The best informed railroad men state
that the Rock Island will not be able to
maintain the speed with their new fast
mail train which they claim. The clerks
running on the Albert Lea and Burling-
ton division state that it is not unusual
for four engines to be used on this run
and then come in all the way from one
to four hours late. They claim the Rock
Island is not equipped to handle the
business and the Burlington is not much
alarmed about losing the contract.
