THE supply of water has been irregular and
scanty for three months past on that part of the
plains which is supplied from the Maikiki resers
yoir. There is plenty of water in the Maikiki
valley, at and above the waterfall, but a large part
of it IS lost in the sandy soil before reaching the
point where it is taken for city supply. The
scarcity is at length to be remedied by means
which ought to have been adopted a long time ago,
viz, a box fume from the neighborhood of the
wa terfall TO the reservoir. The survey of the line
of hume was begun on Wednesday by Mr.. Law
renee. Meanwhile it is intended to cart up mate
rial so that the work can be proceeded with rapidly
as soon as the survey Is complete, and 1t Is hoped
that a full supply will be available in about a
week from now.

driver, caused a great connection in Merchant
street yesterday afternoon. The reins got under

and he bOlted. His career fortunately was very
short, but what there was Of it was decidedly SEN
sational. The start was made from the neighbor-
hood Of the ADVERTISER office. On the opposite
side of the street an express was standing, and DR..
Emerson's buggy was just beyond it. On the
mauka side of the street was a wagon loaded with
bags Of bran, etc. Fortunately for his property
DIR. Emerson was in his buggy and seeing the in
evitable collision drew his horse into the gateway
of Messrs. Hoffschlaeger d Co.'S yard. He escaped
with q Craze on one wheel and q smash Of the
other. The wagon did not fare so well, being
literally overturned and thrown across the middle
of the street. The runaway was brought up by
thrown out and fell on his arm which was a good
deal hurt. The wagon suffered damage by the
bending of the axle. The horses involved in the
collision were more frightened than hurt.

to-day that Mr. Vanderbilt had purchased the Hoosac

the Legislature of this commonwealth only has the
power dispose OF this great bore" The Journal says;
II Mr.. Vanderbilt is negotiating for railroad IN the
vicinity OF the Hoosac Tunnel it would not be surps
ing hear at any time that the Boston, Hoosac Tunnel

Construction Company the sole of the Boston.
HoOsac Tunnel and Western, was held in NewYork Mon
day. and of the Boston directors OF the railway
itself have gone to NewYork to attend important
meeting OF the board Of directors It Is quito possible that
the rumor mentioned referred to tho Burt road
instead of the State road. The Boston, Hoosac Tunnel
and Western would give Vanderbilt excellent cOnnec
ton from the Central few miles west from Scheneo
tady the tunnel and in connection with the Troy and

OF the tunnel situation snort line from Troy north
