who has been handling the cases be-
fore the Territorial Grand jury on the
island Of Kauai, writes to his colleague

which he passed in the recent cam
paign, County Attorney John w.
Cathcart has been confined to his
house ever since election day,
suffering from a nervous break down.
There were a number of criminal cases
called this morning before Judge Rob-

Mr.. Cathcart's illness at the request
of Deputy County Attorney Milverton,
they were all continued for one week.

MAHOGANY CoMPANYvIs TURN
ING OUT THOUSANDS OF oHIA
TIES.

. Reports received by the Mauna Kea
on it's arrival on Saturday by B. f.
Dillingham; from the mill of Hawaiian
Mahogany Lumber Company, state that
the ohia ties are being turned out in
profusion. The expert sawyers
brought down from the coast are at
work and their presence is making
considerable difference in the output
of the big mill.
Arrangements are being made for
the lighting of the big mill by cleo
tricity and in a short time the work
will be completed Just as soon as
this is done the mill will be run both
day and night and the Japanese who
are working in the forests under Col.
Sam Johnson will be placed on their
metal to keep up with the inside force
which is doing the saving.

OTHER LIFE,

A party of citizens, including John
Walker, DR.. Sinclair, Captain Parker,
Col. c. ]. Mccarthy, Henry Davis,
John Markham Foster Davis and 9TH
ers, yesterday started on a mosquito
and health campaign of their own in
Makiki and this morning they are
showing a bottle containing lots Of
lively mosquito 'wrigglers" besides va
rious other specimens Hrawn from
sewer pools about which complaint was
made some time ago to the Board of
Health.
Some time ago the attention of the
Board was called to the catch basins
along Piikoi street, which all have
stagnant water in them nearly all the
time, giving cut an odor of filths The
Board discussed the matter, received a
report stating that the pools were be-
ing treated with oil, and sent the re-
port to Col Soper, who made the COM
plant, and then dropped the matter.
AS mosquitoes continued to swarm
and filthy odors to emanate from the
sewers, the citizens started out yester-
day to find out why. The pools had
been "oiled" on the day before. Walker
dropped buckets into the pools and
brought up the water. There were
plenty of "wrigglers" in it, also some
other insects which the voluntary ms
pectors were not able to classify.
81 think that if the citizens cannot
get any action they ought to find away
to do the work themselves said
John Walker. There is no need for
these catch basins at all in my opinion
but if the basins are needed, the bot
tom can be pierced so that they won't
hold water. We were better off with
out a storm sewer system than with
one that produced a lot of stagnant
polls and breeds disease. There is a
case of sickness that is probably
diptheria in this very neighborhood
now. 1t is time the citizens insisted
upon some thing being done. If we
have catch basins, let the water be
allowed to leak through them into the
| black sand.%
The following is the reply sent by
the Board of Health to the last com
plant: ~ So

Gentlemen: Referring to the petit
ton of certain residents of Piikoi St.,
between Wilder Avenue and Elm street
relative to the storm sewer catch
basins in that vicinity, beg to submit
the following:
THE sewer catch basins that are the
most offensive are the ones at King
and Piikoi streets.
81 saw Road Supervisor Cummins
and he informs me that if he filled up
the hole at the bottom of the catch
basins the storm sewers would become
filled and stopped up with the refuse
brought down by the heavy rains. He
also informs me that. all the catch
basins are cleaned at least once a
week. He further says that he will
give the matter his personal atten-
ton and have them cleaned oftener if
they need it. He has given orders
to the foreman to lime them.
The men on the mosquito force
have oiled the catch basins every week
70" the last two months, but of course
when rains have come quite little
of the oil has been washed away.
have examined number of the catch
basins in the Makiki District of late
and have found wrigglers in only three
Several engineers whom 1 have
talked with claim that the stump in
the bottom of the catch basin is un.
necessary.
1T seems to me that it might be ad
visable to refer the petition to the
Board of Supervisors and see if theil
engineers cannot find some way to dc
away with these sumps and yet mo-
endanger the filling of the sewer IL

THE SECRETARY'S REPORT.
w. o. Smith read his report as sec
rotary, which was partly as follows:
The Trustees have held thirty meet
ings during the year,
Attention is again called to the sug-
gestion made, in the Seeretary's last
report, that further consideration be
given to the subject OF the appoint
ment of committees of managers and
of their reports.
1t may be that instead of the Pre-
sident appointing the usual stated
number of members on each commit
tee it would be better that he appoint
one member on each committee who
should be chairman, and each chair
man so appointed select the other
members of his committee. This, how
ever, is matter for consideration and
action at the annual meeting.

COMMITTEE REPORTS.
The chairmen of the various COM
mittees will report upon the subjects
assigned to them.
The Committee on Labor has held
many meetings during the year and
had various plans under consideration.
Upon the recommendation of this
committee the Trustees decided that
in order to carry out more systematic
and comprehensive plans in regard to
maintaining an adequate supply of la
bprers it was desirable that Labor
Bureau be organized to be in the i'm
mediate charge of capable and efficient
officers Steps have already been TAX
en- to carry out this object and it is
hoped that much benefit will result
therefrom.

Mr. F. NJ. Hatch, the Representative

portance to the sugar interests OF
these Islands that there should be nc
diminution of the tariff on sugar i'm.
ported into the United States from
foreign countries. This subject has
been given earnest consideration by
the Trustees and our Representative
at Washington. Without tariff pro-
lection sugar could not be produced
at a profit in these Islands owing t.
the cost of production, distance from
the market and cost of transporta
