The arrangements were freely, ills-
I missed by those of your guests that

Iiiiouh that the entertainment provid

that In tho miinugemcnt of the many

amounting to positive genius! For
my own part, it has fallen to my lot
to participate In n great ninny fetes
In utl parts of the world, but 1 have
never before seen anthlng that was
In every Imaginable particular so de
lightful. In my opinion you ure en
tilled to the credit not only of having
displa)ed the warmest and most open

ing made us all feel that we am all
members of the same race of human

to meet the Queen, whose charm nf

impression. I earnestly hope that she

As n reult of his recpnt tour nf
Hawaii In company with President
Pratt of the health board, Secretary
13. A. Mott-Smlth and Superintendent
of Public Works Marston Campbell,
Dr. Oeorpe V. McCoy has noted three
matters that should receive special
retention. These he placed before,
the health board nt Its meeting yes
terday afternoon.
First conies plantation sanitation
followcil'by dangerous conditions re
lating to sewerage and a possible In
jection from hookwoim, niul third the
sporadic outbreaks of plague that oc
cur 'at Ilonokaa and along the II a in a-
kua coast. -it,
Speaking of tho plantation sanlta
tlon he stated that he was surprised
to find conditions so well advanced.
Although tho plantations provide good
nouses, however, he fniin,! In mniiv
Instances that the tenants shut nn all
the doors nud windows mid then pro
ceed to fill In underneath the houses
nlth garbage which he declares,
creatos a veritable rat paradise. Prom
his own experiences he thinks thnt
I over half of the Filipinos are afflict
ed with 'hookworm and Hint a gicnt
many of those brought In here mint
have brought the disease with them.
The weakest point in the planta
tion sanitation lie found was In con
nection with sewerago matters, a pin
Mem that Is alwajs most difficult
wherever plantations are situated. Ho
outlined nt some length the necessity
for Installing' a competent system and
thus preventing the polutlon of the
sail which ho states Is thn surest and
quickest method of transmitting hook
worm. After praising the laboratories that
have been established on Hawaii he
commented on the sporadic cases of
plague and mentioned the same sort
of thing that occurs In other coun
tiles. At the snmo time he believes
thnt no many cases breaking out
among children Is very unusual. A
campaign against rats he thinks would
In u great measure help to do away
with tin; trouble.
A swamp belonging to the Hlslmp
estate and situated at the back of tho
Seaside Hotel was spoken .or by Dr
Pratt. Manager IJshman of tho ho
le! has been spoken to about It owing
to thn fact that It was a bad breed-
