RID THE FIELDS OF MOSQUITOES
OR ABOLISH RICE CULTIVATION

Tied out leaves many puddles on the
field, and in these the mosquitoes
find ideal breeding places.
The suggestion that all cutters in
the city limits be torn down was
brought forward. 1t was found that
the City and County ordinance makes
it imperative that cutters be put on
houses that front on public streets.
To remove the cutters would be viola
ton of the ordinance.
It was suggested that a subcommit-
tee be appointed to wait on the board
of supervisors and try and obtain a
readjustment of the gutter ordinance.
The Board of Health might deem it
necessary to pass laws that would,
eventually, abolish house cutters. The
subcommittee that was selected to in
terview the supervisors consists Of
Frank Thompson Walter f. Dilling.

After February ;, the financial part

ment With the much smaller force
now employed on inspection work, it
is found that the clerical staff of Dr.
Mccoy can be done away with. Mr.
Wentworth, who has been acting as
bookkeeper will return to San Fran.
cisco early next month, and Adjutant
Kluge will take up his old position
at the Leprosy Investigation station.
In future all the inspectors will be
paid off at the Board of Health office,
where the payrolls and other books
will be kept.
The legal department of the Board
of Health is working on several prop
ositions, the celebrated Lucas banana
case being one of them The deputy
attorney general has filed a supple
mentary brief in the matter and the
case may come up soon.

There was a meeting of the Civic
Sanitation committee yesterday after
noon, and at it we're present A. r.
Judd, Frank Thompson, l.. Tenney
Peck, Judge Lymer, DR.. Pratt, DR.. Nc
Coy, Major Kennedy and Adjutant
Kluge. In the absence of w. f. Dill
ingham, Senator Judd acted as chair
man, while Adjutant Kluge was made
acting secretary, owing to ]. r. Gait
not being present.
The first matter taken up was that
concerning the low-lying lands of p.
NJ. Pond. In view of the assistance
that Mr. Pond has been to the com
mittee, it was decided that the Civic
Sanitation body do the filling in, and
that Pond be asked only to pay the
actual expense incurred.
In regard to Judge Ballou's proper
ty, Judd said that the owner was well
able to bear the expense of filling in
the low-lying land, and that the cost
would not be more than $3.50.
Another matter that claimed the at
tention of the committee was that of
a proposal to pay the prison luna, who
has charge of a gang of prisoners en-
ployed on sanitation work, small
salary Dr. Mccoy gave it as his opin-
ion that some wage should be paid,
over and above what the luna receives
from the prison department This was
agreed to by the committee, and it
was decided to pay the luna $15 per
month.
There was some discussion about
several rice patches that have been
declared to be mosquito breeding
places. The decision come to was that
the owners be instructed to either al
low more water to flow on to the
fields, or else abandon rice cultivd.

HAWAIIAN HISTORICAL SOCIETY
HOLDS ITS ANNUAL MEETING

year ago still prevailing, the work of
the librarian has necessarily been re-
stricted. The accessions of the year,
besides the reports of the American
Historical Association, of the Bureau
of American Ethnology, and the pub
lications of other societies, include
number of valuable works which
should have mention.
THE Polynesian Wanderings," by
William Churchill published in 1911
by the Carnegie Institution of Wash
ington, is one of these. The charac-
ter and scope of the work is limited at
in the subtitle, Tracks of the migra-
ton, deduced from an examination of
the Proto-Samoan content of Efate
and languages of Melanasia
"a photography Of the Literature
Relating to New Zealand" 1909, a
copy of which has been received, is 4
compilation by T NJ. Hooker.
From the Bishop Museum we have
the publications of the past year, in
Guiding Mr.. Brighams "Ka Hama
KAPPA, the Making of Bark-Cloth in Ha-
wall" 1911, together with the color
plates illustrating it, which are separ-
ately published.
Mr.. T. G. Thrum has given the Ha-
waiian Annual for 1912, thus complet-
ing the file to date. Complete files
for eight years of Ka Nupepa Kuokoa
have been arranged by your president
and bound, without expense to the So
ciety. Mr.. Westervelt has also added
to the files of newspapers, bound vol
umes of Kuokoa Home Rula, 1909,
and Aloha Alma.
The membership of the society,
which was 144 at the close of last
year, is now 14S. Seven were elected
to membership during the year; there
have been two deaths and one resig-
nation.
The librarian has partly completed
for the catalogue of the Honolulu Lii
brary an index to the publications of
the historical Society, which will be
duplicated for the catalogue of this
society. Other work on the catalogue
is also under way, the completion OF
which it is hoped can be reported in
a short time.

.OLAA DIVIDEND
RUMOR INFLUENCE

The tone of almost all local stocks
continues to hold strong, and business
on the Exchange keeps up the brisk
pace of the past few weeks.
This morning half a dozen blocks
of Olaa, aggregating 24O shares, were
reported sold at yesterdays price of
6A, but at close bolders had raised
the asking price to 62s Rumors of
a coming dividend are accredited with
the recent demand for this stock.
Oahu was another stock that was
very active both between boards and
