Is there a scheme afoot to take Leone Chl-tso to China and gain the re
ward offered for his handsome head by the Dowager Emprees of China? Har
ry Evans, who was formerly In charge of the waterfront police, says that
he has knowledge of euch a plan and that those in It came te him and tried
to buy a boat to carry their prize to the Flowery Kingdom in.
Harry Evans baa a reputation for truth, so lt muet be so If he was not
the victim of practical Jokers. Leung Chl-tso lives with Wing Wo Chan,
the big Chinese merchant whose place of business Is on Nuuanu street.
He has been here for some months and has Just completed the organiza
tion of the Bow Wong Wul, the Chinese organliation which now har a
membership of several thousand. The Wul was refused a charter bot i3
going ahead without one and means to establish a thorough plan for aid
ing the reform party in China.
Leung Chl-tso Is the guiding etar of the Bow Wongs, and his clever
mind haa aided them greatly in their revolutionary scheme.
Leung Chl-tso has let no fear of being shanghaied stop his free Inter
course with his countrymen. Being a subject of the Mikado, his safety Is
especially looked after by the representatives of the Japanese . Government
here. He came to Honolulu with letters from several of the most influen
tial statesmen of Japan. At the same time Leung Chl-tso takes no foolish
chances of losing his head.
Wherever he goes he is accompanied by watchful and quick-witted servi
tors and all in his party are heavily armed at alL times. It is not a conspir
acy to shanghai him that he is afraid of, but that some fanatic or person
impressed with fidelity to the Dowager Empress might assassinate him for
the hope of a reward in a futnre state. It is to guard against this possibil
ity that he goes guarded and armed;
But he does not deny himself to visitors nor does he stop at mixing free
ly with the Chinese at public gatherings. He has spoken at the headquarters
of the Bow Wong Wul, in the old Salvation Army hall on King street, and
is now about to make a visit to the other Islands to gather the Chinese
there into the reform fold. He will have with him his cabinet and others
and will make a tour of several weeks. Then he will sail for San Francis
co, where the Celestials await his coming with great eagerness.

Edwarda'Plumbing SuggestionsAp
plication for Job of Inspector.
Other Items of Interest.
It was late yesterday afternoon when
the Board of Health met; some of the
members had forgotten even that there
was to be ameetlng; the plague is get
ting to be a thing of the past and the
urgent necessity of attending the delib
erations of the Board is now consid
erably modified. Dr. Wood was In the
chair about half past three o'clock anu
Dr. Emerson and Messrs. Smith and
Lowrey were on hand, constituting the
quorum. A pile of correspondence lay
on the table before the president wno
had not had time to arrange lt In any
particular order. First he took up a let
ter from F. II. Edwards In relation to
plumbing, addressed to the executive
officer of the Board, as follows:
Edwards on Plumbic g.
In reegard to the making of rules to
be observed by plumbers in connecting
buildings with sewers, about which you
spoke to me on Saturday; knowing that
rules would be necessary, some time
ago, I wrote to Mr. Hering asking If be
had any rules that would apply to these
Islands. He answered that the condi
tions in Honolulu are different from
those In the United States and It might
be necessary to get up some special
regulations and that he would take the
matter up shortly. In a letter received
from him on Saturday, he says he hopes
In his next letter to have something to
say about plumbing regulations.
Mr. Hering knows the local condi
tions and from his world-wide exper
ience 1 know he will be able to suggest
better and safer rules than I can com
pile. Under these conditions I would re
quest a short delay before adopting
complete plumbing regulations. That
the work may not be delayed I make
the following suggestions which I feel
rnnfllonf n.111 ha nnnrQVfd bv Mr. Her
ing and will enable the plumbers to
order needed material.
KIt- nt hnn.e rtrftlna to be not le99
than four inches in diameter and not
river ! Inrhsa In diameter.
No trap on main drain, but pipe car
ried full size through the roof. Changes
In direction of soil and drain pipes to
be made with Ys and y lends. Sanl
tary Ts may be used on vertical runs.
All fixtures to be trapped and traps
vented.
All water closets to be flushed from
tanks.
Tan closets, Philadelphia hopper
closets and plunger closets not to be
used except short hopper closets may
be used In isolated out buildings.
Cast iron pipe to have the nAne of
maker upon it and a mark to Indicate
its weight. It is to be covered inside
and outside with a coating of asphalt
or tar and when used In buildings over
one-story In heigat, is not to weigh less
than the following per lineal foot:
two Inches diameter, five lbs.; three
inches, nine lbs.; four Inches, twelve
lbs.; five Inches, sixteen lbs.; six
Inches, nineteen lbs.
Under buildings every soil and drain
pipe shall be of cast iron or galvanized
iron pipe. Waste pipes may be of cast
iron, galvanized iron or of lead. When
lead is used It shall be only as branches
to connect with cast iron or galvanized
Iron pipe.
Dr. Wood thought if the plumbers
were going to order a great quantity
of material that they ought to be pro
tected by the adoption of the foregoing
report or the adoption of some similar
temporary regulations. The report was
laid on the table upon motion of G. W.
Smith.
Plumbing' Inspector.
"I beg to hand you an application,"
ran a communication from Minister
Young, "for the position of Plumbing
Inspector, Honolulu. I have made
some Inquiries about Mr. Tannatt and
find that he Is a- very competent en
gineer." This Is the aplication in part: "I
note the position of Inspector of Plumb
ing has Lcen definitely decided upon
and It Is my desire to hereby" file my
application for said position.
"My education and practical work, I
believe, have specially fitted me to
make the position just made, prove a
necessary and valuable addition to the
government, and as I have already ten
dered my resignation as civil engineer
at Waialua plantation, I am at liberty
to assume the responsibilities of office
at any time you may desire, etc. E.
Tappan Tannatt."
Mr. Lowrey suggested that some
member of the Board confer with the
Minister of the Interior and find out
when the appropriation with which to
pay such an officer would be available.
The communication was placed ou file.
Specimens by Mail.
Most of the business of the Board
yesterday was confined to the reading
and Acting upon communications The
following from A. W. Hayselden. aKent
of the Board of Health at Walluku.
Maul, was read: "By registered mail I
send you a package containing speci
mens from the body of a native woman
who died on the night of the 7tb of this
month at Walhee, Maul, and further

particulars of which will be furnished
you by Dr. Weddick who performed the
autopsy on the body. As the woman
died rather suddenly and without medi
cal attendance I felt justified under the
circumstances existing here as regards
health matters, to order a post-mortem,

atLahaina,"
The Board. Laughs.
President Wood picked up a docu
ment addressed to himself as "president
of the Board of Education" and asking
permission to grant marriage licenses.
The laugh was on the doctor and he
suggested the matter be referred to the
Board of Clergymen.
As the result of a report made by Mr.
Lowrey in relation to certa'n exist
ing conditions In Nuuanu valley it was
decided that the executive officer take
the necessary steps for having the sites
of the laborers' camps in Nuuanu val
ley, especially those which have been
abandoned, cleaned and disinfected.
Poi Beform.
Inasmuch as the Council of State had
not seen fit to grant the appropriation
under section 933 of the Penal Laws of
1S97, for the centralization of pol fac
tories, the following resolution pre
sented by G. W. Smith, was adopted by
the Board of Health:
Whereas, the manufacture of poi as
at present conducted in the city of Ho
nolulu is a nuisance in conformity
with paragraph 324 of chapter 36 of the
Penal Laws of 1S37, and is also a menace-to
public health; therefore be it
Resolved, That the following be
known as Regulation No. 30 of the
Sanl'Ary Regulations of the Board of
Health, viz.: Each and every build
ing where poi i manufactured by
manual labor shall be laid with ce
ment floors, with gutters leading into
a trap drain connected with a cesspool
or the sewer system when completed.
