NOTES FROM THE CAPITAL CONCERNING
AFFAIRS HAWAIIAN =GARTER'S ASSIGNMENT

.tion, for service at Honolulu. Gov
ernor Frear has already been informed
of this by cable, the matter having
been under advisement at the treasury
department for some time. Governor
Frear some time ago urged that such
an assignment he made to Honolulu for
cooperation with the territorial author
tiles in sanitation and infectious dis.
eases.
Doctor Wyman sent for Mr.. McClel
Ian recently to talk over the assign
ment. Doctor Wyman stated that Doc
tor Carter was a man of large expert
ence, having been with Colonel Gorgas
at Havana and on the Canal Zone and
in matters of sanitation was undoubt-
edly great authority. There seemed
to be some delay in promulgating the
ASSIGNMENT at the interior department
but Mr.. Mcclellan found that it had
been referred to Governor Frear for
consideration. This was speedily dis
posed of by cable and the assignment
was fully authorized Doctor Carter
will probably reside at Honolulu some
months in connection with this new
duty.

COAST VISITOR IS
PRESENTED TO FLY

Governor Frear received no call yes.
terday from E. X. Carnes, superintend,
ent of the California insectary at Sac.
ramento, who has been sent here to
investigate the ravages of the Medi.
terranean fruIt-hy. The visitor, who
arrived from the Coast on the Wilhel.
nina, preferred instead to call on the
fly. He knew the Governor had lots
OF. other things to attend to.
Therefore Mr.. Carnes went down to
the experimental station ON King street,
where Acting Entomologist Kuhns in
troduced him TO the fly, which stood
the ordeal without tremor. The ex-
pert from Sacramento expects to de-
vote several weeks to the investigation
and when he has finished he says the
question of the quarantine can be taken
up again.
1t is the intention of Mr.. Carnes to
visit each of the islands in turn, begin
ming with Oahu. He says the California
authorities will cooperate with the
local board of agriculture and give it
all the assistance they can. 1.-The in
vestigation is, Of course, to protect
ourselves, and also the interests Of
these Islands, he declared.

HILO, September 2.-This week Hilo
saw for the first time for over decade
soldiers in Uncle Sans uniform on
her streets, when two companies Of in
fantry from Fort Shafter came through
the town on their way to the volcano.
rhe troops arrived on board the steam
er Maui and landed on the railroad
wharf yesterday forenoon just few
minutes after the Mauna Kea had
taken her departure. Their officers re-
ported that they had had pleasant
trip, the vessel having taken the route
to the leeward of Lanai and only a
few of the soldiers had been forced
to make offerings to Neptune
Immediately on landing the troops
marched to the armory, which had
been turned over to them by Captain
Fetter, and here they made themselves
at home The men were allowed lib
erty on the streets and behaved them
selves exceptionally well. The night
was spent in the armory and the fol-
lowing morning a start was made for
the volcano. 1t drizzled a bit at the
start, but not enough to amount to
much and the fine rain made marching

WILL HAVE WATER
CURE FOR THE FLIES

With the help of the fremen and
lots of sweet Nuuanu dam water the
supervisors are going to see that the
fish market is kept clean. And the
superintendent of public works has
promised to aid and abet, though he
does consider it somewhat of waste
of his nice, fine water.
Supervisors Eben Low and Arnold
put the superintendent next to their
water cure for flies and filth when they
waited ON him yesterday at the capitol
and asked him how water pipes we're
ON Kekaulike street.
If you intend to put in permanent
paving on Kekaulike street the depart
ment OF public works will lay the nee
essary mains and put in all the neces-
sary service connections, hydrants, etc.
This work will commence as soon as
the department receives notice from
YOU, was Mr.. Campbell's reply.
Fine!' exclaimed Low. HWe can
turn the water supply on the fish mar
ket; that II keep it clean. The FIRE
department can get busy there every

less warm. Later on in the day it
cleared.
There was some talk about taking
the train for Glenwood and to march
thence to the Volcano House, and the
railroad officials tried to do all in their
power to make favorable arrangements,
but it was found that under the inter
state law no reduction could be made
without notice having been posted
for some time in advance, and it was
decided to make the hike over the
whole distance.
The plan was to march Saturday to
Mountain View, camp there overnight,
march to the volcano Sunday, camp
there until it became time to return,
when two days will be taken for the
trip back to Hilo. The date when the
Maui, which will take the soldiers
back to Honolulu, is to sail is not GER
tain, but it win probably be next
Thursday. The troops will be kept
posted as to the sailing time in order
that they may make their plans so as
to allow them the maximum of time
at the volcano.
The men carry full equipment, con.
sisting of rifle, camp outfit and half
shelter tent for each man, two sleep
ing in each tent, and the whole makes
quite a respectable weight to pack.
