CHINESE ADVANCE.

The late disastrous fire is certain to
cause permanent and important changes
in the general features of this city The
widening of the streets and enforcement
of sanitary rules in the burned district
will displace many Chinese who formerly
resided and did business there; but in
asmuch as they have no notion of leav-
ing the city, they must perforce seek
other quarters. Accordingly, we find
that Chinese are freely leasing available
some little distance from the business
center, where they will not be amenable
to the fire regulations, and in other
respects may hope to be less closely
looked after in regard to sanitary mat
tiers. The prospect, therefore, is that
Chinatown will be changed from the
west to the east side, with this exception,
that it will hardly be possible for the
Chinese to establish such squalid and
unwhOlesome quarters on new ground
under the eyes of the authorities as they
did in the old section of the city. 1t
will be misfortune, however, if the
only outlet from the city towards Wal
kiki should be through a Chinese sub
urb. Property values will fall, and the
charm of the drive be utterly destroyed.
Whatever may be the outcome of this
matter, the officers of the Board of
Health should compel all buildings to
conform to sanitary requirements as to
light, air and drainage.

missing. There is no clue to the guilty

On Tuesday evening next, May 18th,
Prof. HOratio q. Parker of Trinity Col
lege, Toronto, will give select classic
and humorous programme of readings at
the Y. NJ. c. A. Hall, under the auspices
of the Honolulu Library and Reading
Room Association. Tickets, which are
fixed at 81, can be obtained at the store
of Messrs. J. NJ. Dat, Jr., < Co. The
New York Tribune" says of Prof Par
ker: "A critical and delighted audi
ence listened to the readings of Ho-
ratio Gilbert Parker in Leland's
Ocean House, Long Branch, last
evening We have never heard a
more versatile or pleasing reader. In a
scene from " Richelieu and a stave
from Dickens christmas Carol" he
showed to special advantage his pecu-
liar power and commanded enthusiastic
applause. "
The Boston % Courier" has the follow
ing: " Mr. Parker has what so few read
ers have, fine gentlemanly bearing, a
voice of great power of mokulation and
force and very fine literary taste His
recital was well deserving the enthusi-
astic reception given it. "

THE Legislature very properly sus-
pended the rules yesterday and read a
resolution a second time providing for
the expenses of the session.. 1t appro-
PIRATES $50, 900 for that purpose The
expenditure last session WAS 81, 900, so
that the amount named in the joint reso-
luton moved by the Hon. Mr.. Kaulu-
kou will be sufficient unless the session
be unduly prolonged. The third reading
is fixed for to-day. 1t should pass with
out opposition.

THE Hon. Mr.. KAULUKoU, member
for Hilo, gave notice OF a bill to borrow
$2,500,00O for the construction of a rail
road from Hilo through the Hamakua
district of Hawaii. This enterprise may
be an admirable one, and doubtless a
railroad would do much to develop the
resources of the district in question, but
we fear the country is not in a position
to undertake it. The time may come
when this work should be taken in hand
but it is not ripe for it at present. A
similar bill was introduced last session,
and the Postmaster General is to be
complimented upon his tact in keeping
it before the public. Favoring opinion
is often created in this way, and although
the bill stands no chance of becoming a
law of Parliament this session, the fact
of its introduction and debate, if it should
go no further than second reading, will
do good to the district mainly interested.

least there will be hot debates. When
the measures have been presented, how
ever, we shall be in position to express
an opinion upon their merits. We are
gratifed, however, to find that bill to
amend the currency law will be intro
duced very early in the session.
Every interest in the country is now
well convinced that the law as it
stands, is not satisfactory. 1t would
have been very much less satisfactory in
its results, however, had it not been for
the resolute and effective measures
adopted by Colonel Spreckels to sustain
silver at par for all purposes of CONNER
cial exchange.

ing to the Board of Education; also, to
amend section Is, relating to Intoxicating
liquors.
Mr.. Dlckey gave notice of a bill relating
to the erection of frame buildings, and one
relating to stamp duties.
BILLS To BE INTRODUCED BY THE MINISTER OF
THE INTERIOR.
His Excellency C. T. Gulick gave notice
of his intention to introduce at an early
day bills relating to the following sub
jects:
First-Limit in the city of Honolulu
within which fre-proof buildings alone
will be permitted.
Second-General copyright law.
Third-To prevent the obstruction of or
building upon the streets, highways and
sidewalks of the city of Honolulu, and the
towns OF Hilo, Lahaina and Wailuku.
Fourth-Relating to the water rates in
the city of Honolulu
Fifth-To regulate the building of fires
within the city of Honolulu.
Mr.. Liikalani gave notice of a bill to
authorize the Minister of the Interior to
issue licenses to sugar mills to distill spirit
uous liquors. The bill, he said, would be
supplemented with numerous long petit
tons.
Mr.. Keau gave notice of bill relating to
the Office of Registrar of Conveyances.
Mr.. Keau gave notice of bill to pro-
hibit Cinnamon from marrying Hawaiian
women unless they intend to make the

EXPENSES OF THE LEGISLATURE.
Mr.. KauIukou moved that the rules be
suspended to enable him to introduce a
Joint resolution. Carried. He then moved
the resolution which appropriates the sum
of $35, 900 to defray the necessary expenses
of the Legislative Assembly for the year
1886. He further moved the suspension of
the rules to place the resolution on its
second reading, Carried.
Mr.. Kalua moved that the resolution be
referred to the Finance Committee. He
noticed that the balance i'll the Treasury al
the close of the year was $9,174 50, so that
it was very little use passing a resolution
to appropriate $4,000.
Mr.. Kaulukou moved that the resolution
pass to engrossment. The motion was
agreed to, and the third reading fixed for
next day.
PRINTING OF BILLS.
Mr.. Castle offered resolution, ordering
all bills after their first reading to be
printed in Hawaiian and English.
Mr.. Kaulukou moved an adjournment
until 10 O'Clock Wednesday morning. Car
ried.
The House adjourned at u o'clock.

APPROPRIATION BILL.

In the absence of the Minister of
Finance through ill-health, His Excel
lency Mr.. Gulick gave notice yesterday
for the introduction of the Appropriation
bill on an early day. This intimation
was somewhat of surprise to the AS
sembly, which had been accustomed to
a much later presentation of the Appro-
priation bill. However, the innovation
was good one, and we trust when the
bill is introduced to-day that the Legis-
lature will apply itself to its considera-
ton. The forwardness of the public
business, so far as Ministers are con-
cerned, is cause for general satisfac-
ton, inasmuch as it will enable the
Legislature to get through its work
with dispatch and an intelligent percep-
ton of all matters submitted to it.
