In his re port to the Board of Health for the month of November, states that there were 27 cases of tvnhold fever In the district during the month, and has a complaint I to make regarding, the sale of strong drugs by Japanese medicine peddlers. The number of typhoid cases is unusual, but health conditions otherwise are re ported good. The doctor says: "I would recommend that some stric ture be put on the indiscriminate sale of such drugs as antipyrin, antifebrln or acctanilide by Japanese medicine ped dlers, as I have seen a number of cases of fever which have died In the first week of their illness, in which I am morally sure the cause of death was over doses of these strong heart depressents. Incidentally I might also mention seeing by accident a case of a native woman In the fourth week of enteric with a pulse barely perceptible and very fast, being dosed with antifebrln every three hours by one of our recent Japanese medical brothers," 1IEEKS-HANSEN.

'the end of the Week to consider the draft I of the bill which has been drawn' by ' United States District Attorney Urcckons, bearing upon the govnrcment of countses. This bill has in It many of the features of the Wyoming law, but' is more generally that o the State of California, the provi sions being written down so as to be applicable to the conditions here. The consideration of the measure, in the opinion of several of the men who have been connected with Its inception, will take not more than a week, after .which the dralt of the measure will be submitted to the people for general dis cussion and consideration. There are uiany points in the bill which have com bined to make its drafting difficult, but it is expected that when the meetings of the committee arc finished there will be a comprehensive measure for the con sideration of the public, and in turn for the taking up by the commission of the Senate, which will discuss the bill and submit it (n the tinner house. There has, as yet, been nothing done in tne way or drawing up tlie city bill, and it is understood that nothing will be done before the consideration and appro val of the county measure.

Fanning Island, Dec. so, by S. S. So noma, arriving December 33. There will be an unexpected delay in laying the cable from San Francisco to Honolulu. The cable jhip Silverton started on De cember 19 to lay the cable from off the shore by the Cliff House, but very heavy seas were running and boisterous weather were prevailing at Jthe time. The rough seas seriously crippled the vessel and effectually retarded the progress of cable laying. The hawser which is used in laying the cable broke which, together with the heavy seas, forced the vessel to abandon the work and return to San Francisco. It is not known how long the vessel will be delayed. No attempt will probably be mai.t to resume the lay ing of the cable until the weather will have subsided. Federul Jurors.

They arc Hawaiian, Japanese, Porto Rican and Chinese, They are at hqmc in the street both in wet and dry Weather and are in constant danger from passing wagons and horses. They are growing up under surroundings that are bad. During the past year, since the establishment of the Walakea mission, a splendid start has been made for the sdcial betterment of the residents of Wal akea ami their children. Three years ago the late Mrs. Abbey began a work of philanthropic teaching among these peo ple holding classes in the little Walakea church. A little more than a year ago, through the liberality of C. C. Kennedy, the mission building, furnished with a IpMano and chairs and electric light, was placed at the disposal of that community. Services of various kinds have been held there during the past year, the ladies of Hilo under the leadership of Mrs. L. C. Lyman, having been untiring in their work.

As the work 1 progresses and public interest is aroused Miss Wight will have an assistant. The purposes of this movement arc , strictly practical. The boys of Waiakea 1 are to be taught how to make of them selves meu, and the men are to be shown how-they can better support their families and better serve their employers. , The work is in the hands of n com- I mittee consisting of Mrs. L.
