COAL FROM JAPAN.
The InterIsland S. n. Co. has re-

are now on the way here from Japan
ports two steamers with an aggregate

The Shinbu Maru Is coming with

February with further 5000 tons.
For a long time the Inter-Island COM
pany has been using New South Wales
coal. The Japan variety is no doubt
much cheaper than that obtained in
New South Wales, and perhaps the
difference in quality will be more than
compensated by the difference in rate.
The coal from New South Wales Is
said to be among the best of its class

THE MOSQUITO CAMPAIGN
IS A VERY SEARCHING ONE

On the premises of Thomas Holling-
er, near Kapiolani Park, a particular
ly glaring violation of the Board of
Health's regulations concerning mos
quitoes was discovered by Dr.. Mccoy
on Saturday A watering trough on
these premises was found to be alive
with mosquito larvae in all stages of
development. A sample taken there
from is now on exhibition in Dr. Nc
Coys office
Judge Lymer Immediately notified
the owner that the larvae in the
trough must be destroyed and the
breeding place given such attention
that mosquitoes will not breed there
in the future. Mr.. Hollinger was
given until five o'clock that afternoon
to attend to the matter.
DR.. Mccoy and Judge Lymer also
paid a visit to some stables on King
street adjoining the Johnson House
Some larvae were found in a barrel
and there was considerable standing
water around the yard. Whether this
came from the rain of that morning
