BOARD OF COMMISSIONERS OF
AGRICULTURE AND FORESTRY.
DIVISION OF ANIMAL INDUSTRY
Rule Quarantine OF Horse Stock
Horses, Mules and Asses) Arriving
Prom or Through the State of Cali
fornia.
Owing TO the fact that CHAMBERS
has again made its appearance among
mules arriving here from California,
and to the further fact that the Board
of Commissioners of Agriculture and
Forestry has definite information to the
effect that CHAMBERS prevails in the
State of California to an extent which
makes it unsafe to rely on the present
regulations governing the importation
of live stock to this Territory, it is
hereby ordered that:
Until further notice all horse stock
(horses, mules and asses) arriving in
this Territory, from or through the
State of California, shall be quaran-
tined, at the port of entry, for twenty
one days, counting from the date of
departure from California.
By quarantine shall be understood
the absolute segregation of such ami
mails. so as to preclude the possibility
of CHAMBERS infection being transmitted
TO other horse stock.
If the owner, eonsignee or importer
so desires, and if he is able to provide
premises, which in the opinion of the
Territorial Veterinarian or his deputy
are suitable and convenient for the
purpose. such horse stock shall be
qnarantined on the premises provided
by the said owner, consignee or i'm
porter. Otherwise they shall be taken
in charge by the Territorial veteri-
marian or his deputy and quarantined
ON premises provided by this Board
or by its officers.
If at the end of the stipulated pc
Rod the Territorial Veterinarian or
his deputy is not satisfied that the
animals are free from CHAMBERS or other
contagious diseases, the same shall be
either subjected to the mallein test or
continued in quarantine, or both, until
released and admitted TO the Terri
tory.
All expenses in connection with the
quarantining of horse stock as above

importer or consignee.
While this rule remains in force the
ports of Honolulu, Hilo and Kahului
shall constitute the only ports of entry
for horse stock (including mules and
asses) coming from or through the
State of California.
All rules pertaining to the importa-
ton of live stock, as well as to the
inspection and testing of live stock in
tended for importation, shall remain in
force, except SO far as they may con-
dict with this rule.
This rule shall take effect from and
after the date of its approval.

THE WlFE-NlOTHER QUEEN AND

Standing out in bold relief in the
tragedy which Portugal has given
to the world is the pathetic figure

this beautiful, latter-day queen, tran

The human interest in this Wit
and mother OF royal blool has ar
rested the attention of the busy
world. Fooled by fate in her pur
pose To sacrifice her own life in the
effort to save her husband and son,
the world has the picture of her in
eonsolable, weeping by the biers of
father. and SOMA woe, SO unspeak-
able, that physicians fear for her

ished chapter of world-history in

says the Charlotte Observer. The
reigning dynasty OF Portugal belongs
to the House of Braganza, which
dates from the end of the fourteenth
century. at which period Alfonso, an
illegitimate son of King John 1, a.

Count of Barcellos and Duke of Bra
sanZa. When the old line of Por-
tuguese kings by the House of Avis
became extinct by the death of King
Sebastian, and his successor, King
HenriQue. Philippe II, of Spain, be-
came King of Portugal by means OF
his defense OF Portuguese princess.

same King with Spain the people of
Portugal revolted and proclaimed
