Will QUARANTINE
IMPORTED STOCK
Carter Wanted To Stop
lmportations In
Toto

Live stock imported from CalifOr-
MIA VIII be quarantined for twenty
| one days from the date of shipment.
This applies to all ports of entry
wheree quarantine facilities are es-
tablished. This action was decided
upon yesterday at the meeting of the
Board of Agriculture and Forestry.
The attention of the Board was called
to the prevalence of CHAMBERS in Cali
fornia, and In order to prevent the
! spread of the disease among the local
animals this action was unanimously
adopted. At the request of the
| Board, Governor Frear will notify
the Governor of California of the
action of the Board.
George r. Carter was in favor Of
prohibiting the importation of Cali
fornia live stock altogether, provided
the conditions in California did not
improve. He said that risk would
be run even by driving stock
through town to the place OF confine-
ment. As soon as possible, Hilo and
kahului will be fitted up with quar-
antine conveniences, the expense of
which to be borne by the importers
of live stock.
w. M. Giffard, who was recently
on Hawaii, reported verbally on the
good work of Brother Matthias New
ell of Hilo, who made careful in
spection of animals and quarantined
them. At his request, II was recon-
mended that Brother Matthias be
given better salary for his valuable
services. The matter was left to the
discretion of the Finance Committee
with instructions to report at the
next meeting.
lsenberg moved that the Board
meet on the first and third Wednes-
days of each month. He said that
this would facilitate business. The
members would be more liable to at
tend regularly. Carried.
j. G. Holcombe, division engineer
of Station A in Panama. who passsd
through here some time ago, wrote
for Poinciana seeds to be sent to him
He wanted the Poinciana for decora-
tive purposes for the Tivoli Hotel.
ID. Haughs was instructed to forward
seeds.
J, kotinsky. the entomologist, read
very interesting report of his work.
The question of fencing Govern
ment forestry reserves to keep out
animals was also discussed, but no
definite action was taken.
Two letters, one from the Hawaii
an Beekeepers' Association, were
read and placed on file.

He Has Become Practically a Thing
of the Past.
An old sea captain who brought his
ship into port recently after a long
voyage from the east was talking about
the changed conditions in the merchant
marine since he entered 1t fifty years
ago.
Il was thinking particularly" he
said, "of how the cabin boy has COM
pletely disappeared, or at least how ex-
tremely rare he Is now. / went to sea

ic kicking put up over that imposi-
ton. Besides all those things. OF
course, the crew made me run errands
for them, and everybody In general
seemed to regard the boy as the
scapegoat for anything that went
wrong. All new cabin boys were un-
mercIuiiy laughed at Il they were
either homesick or seasick. and there
were various practical jokes which had
to be tried on them by the seamen. 1
remember well how was told the first
day I came aboard never to throw any
thing to windward except hot water
and ashes and how was green enough
to follow these orders implicitly. The
sight Of my red and streaming eyes set
the crew into roars Of laughter

TINE IN TURKEY.
The Hours Are Always Changing and
Holidays Are Nun1erous,

The Hours Are Always Changing and
Holidays Are Numerous.
In addition to laziness In Turkey
there is inaccuracy. The Turkish Of
fetal is naturally inaccurate, and habit
and conceit make him more SO. This
perhaps is due to the way In which
Turkey measures time. Twelve o'clock
in the day corresponds with sunset
that is to say, whatever hour the sun
sets, It must always be L. Conse-
quently the hours change always, get
ting later the first half OF the year and
earlier in the last, which compels ev-
erybody to put his watch to daily tor
ture. So no one in Turkey can flatter
himself that he has the exact time
The most strict Of Englishmen soon
loses his national punctuality, SO when
two Turks make an appointment it Is
within the limit Of half an hour or an
hour, and even then they don't gen
orally arrive till after the time agreed
on, each one calculating on the utmost
possible delay on the part Of the other.
Conse equently the state employees are
not bound down by very severe dis
cipline. No one expects them to arrive
at their Office at any particular time,
especially as the majority Of them 60
hardly at all. AS for the most indus
trious, they appear for two or three
hours in the afternoon only, and rather
late. In the morning state Offices are
usually closed. Besides this workdays
are rather scarce for the race of OFF,
Gals. Friday is the Sabbath Of the
7Moha Y mmedans. Saturday is the day
after feast day, and one does not do
much then. Sunday the Greeks and
Armenians remain, like good Chris
ttans, at home. and the Mohammedans
generally initiate SO good an example.
Monday is again the morrow of a feast
day. Wednesday there is a meeting Of
the council of ministers, and few en-
pioyees go then to the ministry. With
religious festivals added In, it is easy to
understand that out of the 365 days Of
the year there are not many left to con-.
seerate to the interests Of the Otto
man empire Nicholas C. Adossides in
