START BIG HEALTH
CAMPAIGN IN KONA

The late typhoid epidemic at Kona
has resulted in what will probably turn
out to be one of the most extensive
sanitation campaigns in the history of
the Territory. Governor Frear yester-
day received a wireless from Pres. e.
A. Mott-Smith of the board of heath
informing him of the institution of the
campaign and worded as follows:
"WiH it be all right if I remain
until Mauna Kea twenty-ninth. Condi-
tion here improving. Have organized
extensive sanitation campaign, {froml
Olaa to Kukuihaele. All managers (are)
cooperating
1t was owing to the action of the
board of health in sending a represen-
tative from Hilo and furnishing neces-
sary supplies that the Kona epidemic
was stamped out and according to this
information Mott-Smith is not anxious
to have it recur.

referred to the sanitary committee and
the dogs to the police committee.

GRAHAM Is AFRAID
OF JACK M'FADDEN

c. NJ. Graham, who was thrashed last
week by Jack MeFadden, and who had
McFadden arrested and fined for the
thrashing, is still afraid of the husky
lad from the Emerald Isle. Yesterday
he had MeFadden arrested again, this
time for using threatening language.
In the complaint he fled, Graham al
leges that MeFadden has threatened to
" knock his block off" and he is afraid
Jack will keep his word. Accordingly,
Graham asks that McFadden be put
under bonds to keep the peace.
