Bids fCr Supplying Dressed Beef and Vaccine Virus-Close Figuring. Al a regular meeting of the National Board of Health, held in the offices a: the Judiciary Buildisg at 4:30 yester day afternoon, the matters considered covered quite a range. Those who attended the meeting were President Smith, Secretary Wil cox, Dr. Day, Dr. Emerson, T. F. Lan sing, L. D. Kcliiplo, Dr. Alvarez, Dr. Monsarrat, Inspector J. D. McVeigh. The Maternity Home has invested in a $1,000 bond of the Oahu Railway & Land Co. and still has a real balance on hand. Letters were read citing that there was no Government physician in Kau district. Dr. Capron has left and Dr. Macmillan is acting for the planta tions only. The matter will be held in abeyance for a time. It was suggested that notice bo given to all concerned that hereafter tne purchase of a practice including the post of Government physician, would not meet with the approval of the Board. No formal action was taken in these premises. Dr. Moore of the Hilo hospital re commended that Dr. Fanny vvetmoie be made a consulting physician, for Hilo hospital. The board at once made the appointment, agreeing with Dr. Moore that it would be wise to have a woman on the staff. President Smith remarked on 23 deaths during the months of March of persons unattended. Of this number 18 were Hawaiians, 4 Chinese and 1 Portuguese. The weather was blamed to some degree for the alarming high rate of mortality. President Smith wished the matter of so many persons dying unattended to be given careful attention. He added that in soma cases there was doubtless attendance that was not reported. Dr. Day hinted that it might be a good plan to require cer tificate of cause of death from a physi cian. The matter will be considered later. Two tenders for supplying beef cattle to the Molokai Settlement for six months were received. The Molokai Ranch Company said 54 cents for dressed beef and the Trustees of the Parker estate said 5 cents. The con tract was awarded to the lower bidder by unanimous vote. The Hobron Drug Co. and Benson, Smith & Co. Ltd, bid for the contract to supply vaccine virus tubes to the Board of Health. Benson, Smith & Co. Ltd., placed the figure at 49 cents and were given the contract, as the other bid was half a cent higher. The price has been 60 cents a tube. Dr. Monsarrat reported on stock kill ed here for beef. This food supply is becoming cleaner constantly. The application of Arthur Johnstone, for appointment as milk and food in spector, detailed the capabilities and accomplishments of that gentleman at considerable length. Filed. Executive session with Dr. Alvarez. Wells for Molofcai. Senator J. A. McCandless and his brother "Kimo" S. McCandless, com prising two members of the well bor ing firm of the three brothers, left yes terday morning on the steamer Mauna. Ixa for Molokai. The gentlemen will leave the boat at Kaunakai. Messrs. McCandless go to Molokai on this trip at the request of the new Molokai Ranch Company. It is the intention to make an expert "survey" in matter of artesian wells. The statement was made when the Molokai Ranch came into control of the new owners that it was proposed to establish a sugar es tate. This planning for artesian wells is the first step in the direction of the same enterprise. It is believed by a number of men who have given thought to the subject that water will be found by boring on Molokai, the sar.e as on the other Islands of the group. Sport With Rat Io-s. Some gentlemen of the city who have imported or otherwise come into pos session of dogs bred and trained to kill rats, are now indulging in an improve ment on the old-time sport. The dogs are taken to lumber yards or to subur ban districts and a hunt for the game mongoose instituted. There have been several quite heavy bags of the enemy of rats and chicken?. A favorite place for the mongoose hunt is in Kalihi. STORES TO LET. The large store in Waverley Block, formerly occupied by B. F.
