THE BATTALION DRILL.

The military companies turned
out in good force last evening, to
participate in the battalion drill.
The several companies were prompt
in assembling at Palace Square, and
the drill began without any unneces-
sary delay. The marching and
battalion movements were creditably
performed. The Hawaiian Band
was in attendance and played during
the drill. When parade was form
ed, the adjutant gave orders for the
military, in undress uniform, to
attend Kaumakapili Church on SUM-
day Dec. 26th, at 8 A. NJ. On dis
missal of parade the battalion, head
ed by the band, marched to Queen
street armory, where hollow square
was formed, and His Majesty's S
satisfaction with the evenings drill
announced by the captain of the
Household Guards. The companies
then separated, the Rifles marching
up Fort street to Hotel street, and
on the invitation of Captain V. v.
Ashford, filed into the Elite ice
cream saloon, and regaled themselves
with ice-cream. The Rifles, on re,
suming march sang popular songs,
and on reaching their armory gave
three cheers for their captain. The
battalion drill, as whole, was salts
factory. A large and interested
crowd of spectators witnessed tn,
maneuvers, and remained to thu
finish.

NEEDED EQUIPMENT.

The efficiency and promptness of
the Honolulu fire brigade are well
known. The firemen need no puff
fling. But there are certain equip
ments and improvements in the out
fit that require to be provided. 1t
was very evident, Thursday night,
that there was want of proper
tools with which to. gain access
through the iron doors of the Pacific
Navigation Co.'s building. Had the
hosemen been able at once to get
q nozzle inside, Oh the third floor,
the fire would doubtless have been
extinguished in few minutes. And
this opinion is confirmed by an exam
ination of the premises next MORN
ing. Hitherto our firemen have been
accustomed to fight fires in wooden
buildings, and battle with the fire
fiend enclosed behind stone walls
and iron doors and shutters has been
of rare occurrence, if indeed it has
ever happened before. Consequently,
the equipmen of tools is not up to
the probable needs of the future.
AS Chinatown is being rebuilt largely
with brick, stone and iron, and no
doubt some of these buildings may
call for the services of the fire
brigade, any day; it would only
seem reasonable that each company
should henceforth be fully provided
with set of tools capable Of going
through an iron door rinstantaneously
and also that a section of the mer
should be specialized for welding
such tools.
Another improvement, the neces'
sity for which was brought promi'
nently into notice on the same occa
sion, is spark arrester for every
engine, similar to that used on q
plantation locomotive. When Engine
No. 4 was commencing operations al
the Merchant and Nuuanu street
corner, the sparks from the engine
flew far and wide over the roofs oi
the buildings in the vicinity. Engines
Nos. and 2 also, on the dock, were
sources of considerable anxiety to
the sailors on board the bark j. II.
Bower, lying hard by. The men
on the bark were kept constantly on
the alert watching the engine sparks
flying over the deck and rigging.
The authorities of the Fire Depart
ment are doubtless ready and will.
ing, to the utmost of their ability
and the means at their disposal, tc
adopt every improvement known fol
perfecting the service, and it is
hoped that these suggestions may
meet their favorable consideration,

. NAMES AND NUMBERS.

Errors are frequently made in this
city in directing a servant to deliver
q parcel or letter at another persons
house. In many cases it arises from
want of local knowledge, but not
unfrequently from being unable to
locate an individuals residence, the
house having no number, and the
street, no name. After heightened
residence in this city, it was only
few days ago that the writer ascer-
tained the name of the road leading
off Beretania street betwixt the
residences of Drs. McKibbin and
Brodie. 1t is called Miller road by
some, after General Miller, who re-
sided for many years in the present
McKibbin homestead. BY the natives
it is known by another name entirely
different.
The extension of that same road,
beyond Punchbowl street, and into
Kinau street, is, as far as can be
learnt from the authorities, nameless.
Kamaaina's have name for it how
ever, which has not yet been regis
tered in the Interior Department.
1t is known amongst select few as
Lovers lane, or Soiled-Dove Alley,
appropriate no doubt, but rather
ambiguous.
A few years ago, the street names
were prominently painted on the
principal streets about town, and
the homes and shops were numbered,
but the work was left in an unfinished
state, and it remains so the this day.
To find special house in old Kiki-
hale, before the fire, by direction,
was as difficult task as bunting for
needle In a haystack. 1t is possi-
BILE that the difficulty can be OBJ
waited by numbering every house
where there is actually no street. Old
Kikihale reminded one Of maze
which was easy to enter, but almost
impossible to get out of. But it il
of localities where foreigners reside
to which we particularly wish tt
refer. Turning to the left off Nuu
anu street Immediately after passing
the First Bridge, or more correctl.
termed, the Peleula Bridge, is Ian
in which a large nun. Der of foreigner
reside, known as Ford's lane ant
also as Vineyard lane. Which is cor
rect? Again take the district beyon'
Kamika Bridge (Smith's Bridge)
1t is becoming thickly populated
but to direct a person unknown t
the locality, to the house of Mr.
Fagerroos or Mrs. Duchalsky, woul'
benext to impossible. AS the cit
spreads, which it is rapidly doing i
all directions, the task will becom
more difficult. Without disparagin
the work done hy the Interior De
partment, it is part of the wor
that would devolve upon municl
pality, should such body eve
exist in Honolulu. In the distric
of Aqua, makai of the Aliolar
Hale and other similar district
about tawn, the houses are nc
numbered, and special houses car
not be found by the uninitiated. Th
woxld was not made in a day, and
cannot be expected that financial
embarrassed government can carr.
out all the desirable works at once
but our simple ''suggestions" nigh
find a better fate than being cast il
the waste paper basket.

Seine True Snake Stories.

I have always had a passion for
hunting snakes. I suppose living in
the country among them is the cause
of it.
In my boyhood l loved fishing, and
an old romantic broken-lown mill-dam
was favorite spot where, with my legs
dangling over the side, L would sit for
hours watching my cork bob up and
down on the water One sunny spring
day, while i'll this position, [ felt some
thing hitting at my bare legs, but my
eagerness in looking after nibble pre-
vented my discovering for some time
that several angry snakes were making
q target Of me. How quickly [ jumped
up, increasing my terror by t,lmbling
on big copperhead cooled up behind
me, I'll never forget, nor the fight 1
then had, tearing half the dam down,
before l succeeded in DISCRIMINATING
the nest of seventeen snakes that had
been sitting on so contentedlv.
Another time, while bathing in a
beautiful brook In the woods, l noticed
Large fish Hopping in the shallow
water just above me. [ had q moment
before captured with my hands ten
inch trout that had foolishly hidden in
a crevice in the rocks, and without a
thought of the danger before me [
rushed, naked of course, to grab this
second one. l got with n yard of it
before L saw that an ugly, four-foot-
long black racer had it in its mouth.
The snake dropped the fish, and with
uplifted head and dartlng fanes went

hastily q water snake that was hasking
beneath stone in the water luckily
shot between my feet, causing me to
look down and see u small stone lying
there. Picking it up l hurled it at my
rapidly advancing and dango Gus
enemy with such good am that | cut
him nearly in two. In triumph I lore
him and the fishes home, but I never
went swimming there again without
taking good look for snakes first.
Once l was high in a cherry Tree,
and rs I drew in a fruit laden branch
big snake glided INTO my arms and
brushed my face as he dropped to the
ground, more frightened than l was.
lie was probably charming the birds
when interrupted.
Many times I've hunted snakes on
the edges ofponds, and on one occas en-
killed twenty-seven. They made {:
horrid pile, and, as the tails live till
shutdown, they presented lively ap-
pearan"e.
I've lound snakes in the cellar, and
once, during a terrible thunder storm,
on going upstairs, put my hand on
big black snake cooled around the
ba, nisters.
One morning I came across two
snakes of different species fighting each
