OPIUM TRAIL.
GETTING WARM

Felise Ludnek, cook of the Matson
steamship Enterprise, was examined
and duly committed to the Federal
grand Jury for smuggling opium, by
United States Commissioner George
A. Davis this morning
AS a result of evidence adduced by
District Attorney Breckons, there

told of the carry of a suitcase ashore

policemen who were somewhat in
quisitive about the contents of the
suitcase.
Barker, according to Peterson, man.

they had turned away concealed the
piece of luggage behind a building. A
little afterward he overlook the Wig

walked up the street, and assured
them that 1T was all right" They
had a drink in the Waiakea saloon,

.ELVEN VICTIMS
IN ONE FAMILY

DIR. Pratt of the board of health, who
returned from a trip to Kauai yester-
day, states that he found some of the
plantation camps very bad, some med
ium and some fairly good. None, how
ever, were as good as they might be-
He found tubercular peritonitis
alarmingly prevalent all the way from
Hanalei to Haena and is of the opin-
ion that there is great need for educa-
tional work along the lines of santa
ton and hygiene in the district nam
ed.
"On July t." said Dr.. Pratt, this
morning, the board of health will
commence a campaign of sanitation
on Kauai, paying particular attention
to anti-tuberculosis work. This camp
align will be conducted along lines
similar to those which govern the
campaign on Hawaii.
THE work will be done under the
superintendent of a health inspector
yet to be appointed. The presence of
tuberculosis in such an aggressive
form from Hanalei to Haena is due to
the way of living among the Hawai-
ians, to the neglect of the laws of
hygiene and to indiscriminate eating
out of one poi-bowl.
"Out of a family of fifteen in one
place l found that eleven had died of
tuberculosis and one of the four sur
vivors had tubercular symptoms"
The attention of the board of health
was called to health matters on Kauai
by George N. Wilcox, writing through
Mrs. Diverill of Hanalei, and by the
reports Of a Japanese doctor.

A CLEVER BURGLAR.

Early yesterday morning a burglar
entered the residence of ]. Arai, man
ager of H, Hamano's store on King
street, who lives at S4S Beretania
street, but all that was stolen was a
revolver, some cartridges and two
razors. The thief showed considerable
Ingenuity in prosecuting his object,
for before entering the house he took
a stepladder from the barn and with
a champagne bottle he twisted the
electric light wire until he had severed
it and thus plunged the house in dark
ness. No one seems to have heard
the burglar, for the fact that some
thing was amiss was not discovered
until Mr.. Aria went to switch on the
light and was unable to do so. The
thief left no clew behind.

"FAvoRlTES" WOULDN'T FIGHT
General Jackson Greatly Disappointed
When His Pugnaclous Birds Re-
fused to Do Battle.

Cock lighting had been Que OF Gen.
eral Jackson's favorite home amuse-
ments. and he had become possessor
OF a breed OF birds called Hermitage
that was invincible in Tennessee. He
had some OF these pugnacious birds
brought to Washington and one spring
morning he rode out toward Bladens-
burg with a select party Of friends to
see "a main" fought between the Her
mitago and the Annapolis cocks. Tho
birds were not only trained to fight,
but were equipped for their work.
Their heads and necks we're plucked,
their tail feathers were closely
trimmed and their natural spurs were
cut on and replaced by "gafrs," or
sharp blades Of finely tempered steel.
General Jackson was confident that
his fsvorites would again be victor-
GUS, but there was no fight, TO the
great disappointment Of all present.
The long confinement In coops on the
stages appeared to have deprived the
Hermitage birds Of their wonted
pluck and the Annapolis birds crowed
