AWFUL CHANGES
TAKEN BY BOARD
OF SUPERVISORS

The board of supervisors took an
awful chance last night when they ad.
iourned to next Friday. Friday hap.
pens to fall on the thirteenth of the
month Later it was discovered that
there are thirteen officers at the board
meetings, making very sad combina.
ton for those who feel superstitious
about unlucky days and numbers. There
are seven supervisors, the mayor and
his clerk, the city clerk, fling clerk,
stenographer and city attorney, making
thirteen in all.
A letter was received by the board
last evening from Charles Murray, re-
corder of Aloha Temple of Shriners,
asking for the use of the Hawaiian
band on the morning of February 81,
when the Wilhelmina arrives from San
Francisco with a shipload of mainland
Shriners; for the following day, in the
afternoon, at a mau to be given at
Waikiki, and on Saturday, February %,
when Shriner street parade will be
held.
The letter was conveyed to the board
by the mayor, who asked if it was the
wish of the board that he continue to
direct the engagements of the band.
On motion of Murray, the mayor was
given this authority, and the Shriners'
request was turned over to him to be
granted.
Mrs Carter, principal of the Central
Grammar School, asked for twenty-five
new school seats, saying those now in
use are nearly falling to pieces, having
been there for over twenty years.
The appointment of A. S. Kaleiopu
as clerk in Doctor Mackall's Office was
confirmed The city physician also
asked for authority to employ two addi-
tional inspectors, to begin work Janu;

live up to its agreement to build con-
crete retaining walls in the ditch line

ACCUSE BOOKKEEPER
OF $4,000 SHORTAGE

The Cheong Lee Wal Company, a
partnership dealing in rice, is now the
center of one of the nice little rows
that occasionally disturb the Chinese
business community. Wong Lung, one
of the partners, has already been in
and out of the hands of the police, and
+. G. Peters is now engaged in an at
tempt to straighten out the tangle into
which Wong has got the company.
Several nights ago Wong Lung, it is
alleged, broke into a storehouse of the
company and extracted 124 sacks of
rice and paddy, which he carried away
in two wagons. He distributed one
sack among his neighbors, but stored
the rest, and it has all been recovered.
His partners claim that he had no au-
thority to take the rice, and they also
claim that it is possible, under the cir
cumstances, to bring criminal charge,
although they are not going to do 1t.
THEY assert further that Wong Lung,
who was the bookkeeper, is about $4,000
short in his accounts, and failure to
make this IN will doubtless result in
prosecution on the other charge or both.
Wong Lung was taken into custody Sat
urday night by members of the special
staff, but was released again until
Peters can &c. matters untangled.

POLICE WORK IN
TABULATED FORM

The report of Judge Lymer, district
magistrate, which is to be included in
the report of the chief justice of the
supreme court, was filed yesterday, Civ
ing summary of the work of the
police during the years of 1909 and
1910.
Lymer recommends, among other
things, that his two clerks be given
increases in pay. His other statistics
show the wisdom of the police system
adopted during the year, which has re-
suited in fewer arrests and greater re-
suits, the year closing with the vicious
gambling and vagrant elements almost
completely eliminated. Committal Of
fenses We're greatly in excess of those
of 1909, there being little appreciable
difference in the percentage of convic-
tions between the two years. A sta
tistical table of the work is as follows:

NJ BRYDE WATER
SYSTEM COMPLETE
Last of Four Reservoirs Finished
Combined Capacity will be
26O,oOO,OO0 Gallons.

Garden Island;-The last day of the
year marked the completion of the four
large new reservoirs which McBrydo
plantation has been building in the
Aipo Valley, running down through the
hills lying in Koloa district between
Kukuiula inlet and Kalaheo village.
They are now available for the storage
of the balance Of the winter rains.
The reservoirs will have a combined
capacity of over 26O,oOO,OoO gallons,
and will be fed by the water from
Kamaloa stream, which drains the re.
gion commonly known as the "Gap, /"
and also the stream following down
Laval Valley.
OF the four new sluiced earthen dams,
two are forty-five feet high and two
thirty.tive feet, with slopes of three to
one on the inside and two to one on
the outside. They are ten feet wide
along the top and win vary in length
from three hundred to four hundred
feet.
The reservoir which is nearest the
ocean will be by far the largest of the
four, being twice the size of either of
the others, aud will have capacity of
l25,000,00O gallons, nearly one.half the
total capacity of all four When full
it will be upwards of half n mile long
and several hundred yards wide, and
will furnish connections lake, in

the valley at present, which, with their
buildings, will he covered over with
water when the lake is full and, of
course, the owners of these have been
paid large sums for the damage to their
property.
= The outlets to the reservoirs are
twenty four-inch concrete pipes, laid
tunnels through the natural rock forma-
ton, around which the earth has been
carefully hand tamped, to prevent the
seepage of water along the outside of
the pipes. Connected with these, each
reservoir has valve outlet of the most
approved type, operated by hand
wheel in the tower above,
Open New Lands.
A large area of new land will be
brought under cultivation with the help
of this new water system, there being
a couple of thousand acres of land tribu-
tary to the reservoirs which has here
tofore received only very intermit-
tent and unreliable supply from the
mauka irrigation bitches, but which will
now have all the water it needs.
The construction of these dams has
been the largest piece of sluicing work
which has yet been tried on the Island,
and has been regarded as somewhat of
an experiment, but the results have
been entirely satisfactory to the planta-
tion, and the experiment well justified
by the difference in the total cost of
the work, as compared with the expense
of similar undertakings under the old
methods of construction, and also by
the increased solidity of the dams.

(Maii Special to The Advertiser.J

WAILUKU, January 5.-The health
situation remains practically the same
as last week. Scarlet fever which
broke out at lower Paia and at Keo.
kea, Kula, are still puzzling health off
GERS as to the source of the infection.
1t broke out among japanese at Paia,
and the Keokea case is that of a Chi
nese child. These children s diseases
can hardly be classed among dangerous
diseases. The board of health Joke
about laying it at the door of Filipinos
is hardly the right thing, there would
be just as much truth and wit and
point to the witticism if it be said that
the microbes of the scarlet fever cpl
demic which prevailed on Maui forty
three years ago Just naturally woke up
from a long Rip van Wrinkle sleep to
get acquainted with the new board of
health experts and to get taste of
the culture media lavishly fed to dis
ease microbes on Maui by the visiting
board of health experts. Anyway
much criticism is banded about the
way the board of health is working
on the Maui epidemic.
The Hawaiian gazette., 1911-01-10
Publicity Desired.

One gentleman thinks the board of
health is ignoring the plain law and
are keeping the public in the dark,
when the law says that in cases of
epidemics weekly health bulletin
shall be issued. The law requires this
for dangerous epidemics and the ac-
tion of the health board in ignoring
the weekly bulletin issue merely goes
to show the board does not consider
the present epidemic of children s dis
eases are coming under the said re-
quirement. Then again the board of
health declared Makawao district in
fected and closed schools and forbade
public gatherings there, and some of
the schools in the Makawao district
are twenty miles away from the in
fected area, while a public school in
the WailukI district, located on the
edge of the infected zone, is open as
usual, although several cases of diph-
liberia have happened near said school
and several premises are quarantined.
But perhaps the infectious microbes
are only looking for victims inside the
Makawao boundary and do turn up
their well-bred noses at Waikiki sub
iects, and the Wailuku victims were
pounced upon by the microbes under a
mistake. And there are those who do
not care rap and would overlook all
the technical shortcomings of the board
of health experts, if the "microbe
hunters from Honolulu" would only
get things down to a point so they
could pick up their traps, remove quar-
antine restrictions and "git."

In my opinion the state campaign
has reached O stage of development
which renders the fulfillment of that
promise necessary. Being a native
OF the state and having been honored
with the confidence and support OF
the people in q position Of high re-
sponsibility during many years, I
shall not consume time and space in
introducing myself, or with generali-

reasonable and just. Upon the backs
OF the people the burden Of govern
ment rests; hence, every expenditure
made should be In response to some
imperative public necessity, and not
for the maintenance of mere tax
eaters who render no returns pro-
porttonate to the compensation they
receive. 1t goes without saying that
all profligate expenditures, whether
for the maintenance Of unnecessary
offices, for excessive compensation
or for extravagant appropriations.
should be rigidly eliminated, and that
the smaller leaks, more apt to be UNI
detected because of their apparent in.
significance, should be stopped.
True economy may be effected by
the following means, among others,
viz:
(A)-Holding down appropriations
well within the limits of the public
revenues.
Establishing every useless Of

(C)-Consolidating offices, commits

be done without impairing the eff.
