Mi'inliiTH of the iiioillrnl fraterni
ty. In conjunct Inn with the Honolulu
Chumlicr of Commerce, nrc plnnnlnR
a war iif extermination nun I list mos
quitoes. This Is not liccansc the
people uf the llnwallan Inlands hivo
contracted malaria or ellow fever,
but-solely to prevent disease-convoying
mosquitoes fiom IioIiib luought
lieie fiom the uuheulthy and tnnlnr-
lal districts of Central and South
America and from those ports of the
Orient where jellow fever Is preva
lent. "
According to Dr. Ilolidy, who read
o most Interesting paper on this sub
ject before the Honolulu Chamber or
Commerce jesterday, there aro light
hero In Honolulu yellow-fever nml
ninlarla-conveylng mosquitoes. Hut,
thanks to the rigid segregation or
all patients who have shown signs
of these drend diseases, Honolulu
and the whole Territory have so far
been Kept Immune from an epidemic.
Now that vessels aro touching here
from Central American ports, where
the B.mltniy conditions are as yet
unsatlsfactoiy, and where the healtn
authorities of those ports are not so
rigid in their examination of pas
sengers as our health officers are
lieie, jellow fever and malarial germs
will have to bo kept within bounds
If these Islands are to continue to
enjoy Immunity from sickness, or
this kind.
Acting Governor Mott-Smlth also
addressed the meeting on the work
carried on by the Hoard of Ilealtb
and quarantine' department, nnd was
emphatic In his remarks us to the
gravity of the situation. With a
large population entirely nonim
mune, with inosqultoca widely scat-
teied, our health authorities hao n
hard proposition to face. The effort
that the. Hoard of HiVlth Is making
to rid the city nnd Island of mosqui
toes Is the first step In making Ho
I'otulu immune from tropical dis
eases.
An appropriation of SI, 000 a
month by the Shippers Association,
to be used exclusively for the ex
termination of this pest, will go far
towards ridding the city of the grave
danger wlilth Is now lurking In our
midst. The authorities cannot do nil
the work, however, the general pub
lic must do their share, nnd It be
hooves all good citizens to see Hint
their particular property Is kept
i lean to that mosquitoes will hav
no place In which to breed.
Once the jellow fever nnd mnlar
lal Infected mosquitoes nre allowed
to establish themselves here, noth
ing will pretcnt the wholo of the Is
lands from becoming n hot-bed of
disease. A mosquito campaign Is to
be started In tho near future, and It
the Hoard of Health authorities have.
the hearty lo-opcratlon of tho pub
lic, Honolulu will soon b rid or
these pests ntul disturbers of noc
turnal slUmbcr.
After giving n resume of the geo
graphical position of these Islands,
which Is Itself te heaviest handi
cap on the quarantine service, and
the various quarantlnnble diseases,
Dr. Hobdy went Into a more detailed
account of mnlaila and yellow fever.
"Malaria is Just as bad and more
Inslillous, for just as your health of
ficers can not Isolate and quarantine
u case of malaria so your quaran
tine ounce can not quatnutlne and
disinfect incoming ships for ma
laria Infected mosquitoes."

HOW I1V1NU IN PARIS
Little Lady Who Was At One Time a
World Wonder, Living Quietly
in the G-ay City Surrounding
Made to Fit.
PAttIS, December 4. Tho Lillipu
tian Village, now one of the features
of Paris life, is a 'living dream, nnd
as one wanders nround this toylike
city with tiny houses, horses no
larger than dogs, nnd coaches that
bring to mind tho'lrahsformnllon or
tho pumpkliij nml tho little people
themselves, one feels llko a giant,
who in hla wnitlir might crush any
one of these midgets with the uplift
ing it a foot.
The queen among the, .100 nttes la
undisputed!)' the Countess Mngrl, or
as she Is more generally known by
the public, Mrs. General Tom Thumb.
This llttlo woman Is today, after
fifty-one jcars of life behind the
footlights, charming the Parisian
public and the hordes of tourists
fiom nil countries by her sweetness
of manner and naturnl charm. Just
as tn the days of our mothers nnd
grandmothers, the celebrated Lillipu
tian, who has reached the age of G8,
Is as marvelous as ever. Age seems
to have touched this loVable little
creature very lightly. Her hair still
retains Its dark brown color, and al
though she Is stoutor thnn alio was,
her buoyancy and sprlghtllness or
step nre those or a joung woman or
rnther ot a child.
