King street, along the line of the
tramway in the direction of Waikiki,
is now one of the best roads in Ho-
nolulu. People who have carriages
say it is pleasure to drive over it.
AS | have no carriage l cannot
speak from experience-only Y judge
by the look and from the testimony
of others. But what q dreadfully
long time the street has been in pro-
cess of macadamiZing, and what q
pile of money it must have cost
Some of the cost appears to me to
have been quite unnecessary. The
stone is brought from the quarry to
Beretania street by locomotive.
1t is there dumped from the cars
onto the ground. 1t is next put into
carts and hauled by mules to King
street. Why could not q portable
track have been laid from Beretania
to King street, aui the stone taken
directly to the spot where needed
thereby saving The cost of tranship'
ment and the mule carts?
The Daily bulletin. [volume] (Honolulu [Hawaii]) 1882-1895, 1889-03-30

Isn't 1t strange that Beretania
street, of all streets, should remain
unmetaled, considering that along it
runs the railway by which is convey
ed the stone for all other streets =?
No other street can be so easily and
cheaply macadamized as this. The
rails connecting it with the quarry
are laid along it, and have been for
years. The stone can be drawn di-
rect by the locomotive to where
needed, without any additional rail
ing or any transhipment. And yet
the street remains about as it was
when the rails were first laid. The
people living alongside of that street
have watched, for years, the ma
teral passing before their doors fol-
the making of other streets, and
their street has got none of it.
What wonder that they are dissatis.
fled, and begin to growl! Had they
not been remarkably ong-suffering
people, they would have growled
savagely long ago.

CHAPTER XIII.



Chief Ludlowe sprang to Arthur's
side, and, STOPPING, lifted his head upon
his knee.
Good God! He's dead!" he painted,
wildly. "Get some water, somebody
quick. Lynn" turning to subordi-
nate near, "bring some water, and then
muzzle that fool that's bowling through
the telephone! He must be mad to
make such an announcement to Ar
thur Wynne without any previous prep
aration."
Lynn brought pitcher of water, and
Ludlowe proceeded to resuscitate the
fainting man.
At last Arthur opened his eyes and
smiled feebly; but the smile was sue.
ceeded by a swift lightning stroke OF
memory, and he shuddered violently a.
no staggered to his feet.
"Done up, wasn't T." he began, try.
ing to speak lightly. SBut, Ludlowe,
in the name of heaven, tell me-did !
hear Alright? Let me know the worst
now. I must know if-if-he, the off.
Ger, really meant it."
Chief Ludlowe went over to the tele.
phone, and, Archer being called, Lud-
lowe went on:
aRepeat your message to Mr.. Wynne
Just now. Be very sure, Archer, that
you are making no mistake
II am making no mistake" shouted
Archer through the telephone. "Don't
see how it can be mistake. The mes.
sage is this: Ruby Lawrence is found! F!
She is dead! Found drowned In the
lake below the city, and her body Is In
the morgue!"
Pale and trembling. Chief Ludlowe
turned to Arthur.
"Shall we 60 there?" he asked, hur-
riedly. care you strong enough?
Are you able to bear the sight, Ar
thur"
For answer, Arthur Wynne picked
up his hat, and started for the door.
His carriage was outside, and they
were driven away like mad to that grue-
some place for the reception of dead
bodias
Arrived there. they entered the great
chill apartment, with its long, white
marble benches, upon which lay sew
eral dead bodies.
A moments hesitation, and Arthur
Wynne had reached the side of one.

horribly disfgured, and quite unrecog-
nizable. But the half-open, staring
eyes were of o deep. dark-violet hue.

The signal drill was very neat and in
genious illustration of the international
code of signals with which all life-saving
stations are supplied and which are in
telligible to every Captain, whether
French, German or Portuguese. Captain
Clemons gave the letters to one of the
men, who wrote then out. The signals
are in colors, small flags of metal, each
part of which means the same in all Ian
guages. When the surfman had inter-
preted the light piece of metal in letters
he gave the reading:
F. D. M. N who was
OCH. lady
D. Fl. G. V. correspondent
@. G.. s. from
B. O.. VIC. Detroit?
Then the Captain announced the name
by another series of flags or signals and
the answer was Immediately given.
The correspondent bore the honor
meekly, but it is doubtful if the Free Press
in all its worldwide journeyings ever had
its name recorded before by the interna-
tional signal code. When the Inspector
had satisfied himself with the service of
the crew at the life-saving station of the
ninth district, and it is generally con-
ceded that this is one of the best in the
service, he gave them a few points for
future reference and showed them how tc
light the beautiful Coston signals which
burn like Roman candles, blue and red,
for beach or signal light at night to
warn vessels seen standing into danger
and to alarm the station. There is a
patent arrangement in the wooden holder
of the light which ignites percussion
cap. The Inspector showed them how
they could light the candle by match.
when the handle would not work readily.
Small as this detail may seem, it might
be an important factor in the life-saving
service. There is man in the lookout
tower at the station day and night. The
beach is patroled from sunset to sunrise,
one man going to the left and one to the
right of the station, carrying with him a
patrol lantern and the Coston signals. At
a certain distance of from five to seven
miles of the station is a patrol post, in
which is secured key to mark the time
detector, which each patrolman carries
and which registers the exact moment
when he was at the post.
The duties of life-saving station arc
not confined to the immediate vicinity of
their district. In the flood of 1888 at
Cincinnati on the Ohio River the station
at Cleveland sent a lifeboat and twelve
skiffs to Louisville, Ky., in answer to a
telegram calling for help. Captain Glenn
ons, of the ninth district, was also tele-
graphed to hold himself in readiness to
proceed to Cincinnati with his ife-sav-
ing crew.
One of the worst gales known i'll Mar.
quette occurred late in the fall of 1886.
Two vessels were stranded and citizens
undertook q rescue with yawl, but
found it impossible to reach the vessel
on account of high seas and dangerous
surf. A tug attempted to leave Mar
quettc, but was driven back. Then the
; citizens used an old mortar and tried to
reach the wreck, but the mortar burst
after the first fire. Meanwhile
the people of Marquette telegraphed
to the ship canal life-savine service

faces.
When the shot line flies from the can
non to the mast, the recoil sends the gun
back in the sand eight or ten feet, but he
who sees that performance misses the
swift run of the line to the man in the
mast. which is the feat of importance.
On the following day, while the men
were standing about at leisure, the In
spector called ''fire." This was the ''fire
quarters drill'' and the men did an eff
cient duty in getting the hose at work
and the water turned on the station as if
it had been real instead of an imagin-
ary fire.
Then tie life car or surf boat-an
egg-shaped boat that could be closed by
3 small square in the hd-was brough
out. 1t danced to the waves like cock
lie shell. There was room in the aper-
ture for two or more persons. The OBJ
ject of the surf boat is to reach disman-
tled wrecks where the breeches buoy
would have nothing to be attached to.
The shot line is sent out to it with a
hawser to which the car is fastened. It
is propelled from the shore to the wreck
and back, in its way often submerged, but,
being air tight, floating like cork. In
spector Clark and Mrs. Clark stepped into
the boat, the lid was put on, and, al
although it was ninety in the shade,
they went out into a statiunary1boat' that
represented wreck. Once there, how
ever, the Inspector concluded to take a
boat for the return trip, but Mrs. Clark
bravely returned in the life car, declaring
that it was something to be rescued from,
as in the sensation of rolling in water
tight and darkened balloon through the
water of the lake being entirely too novel
m experience to be altogether agreeable.
This was followed by resuscitation drill,
in which one of the men was a
drowned person and another resus-
citated him. The Inspector required the
four rules, which the man gave readily
without halt or break, while at the same
time he illustrated them in his treatment
of the drowned man.

service, brought it up to its present ex-
cellent standard. The value of property
saved in one year on the lakes amounts
to nearly million and q half dollars.
The number of disasters reported in the
last year was 1856. The number of per-
sons in peril was 99S. Number of per-
sons lost, three. ' ...
The Woman's Relief Association was
established in 1879, and has shipped
clothing and delicacies annually to the
station for the benefit of shipwrecked
persons, and has done much to relieve
the discomforts and distress incurred.
There are number annually rescued
from drowning through falling from
masts or the ends of piers. Captain
Clemons proudly exhibits colossal gold
medal awarded him by act of Congress.
This medal was the first one given under
that act of Congress. On one side q
rescue scene is engraved; on the reverse,
flag, anchor and eagle. The inscrip-
ton reads:
Testimony Of heroic deeds in saving life
from the perils of the sea. Act Of Congress,
Jme20. 1872"
'sLucien NJ. Clemons, wreck Of Consuelo.
Lake Erie, May l, 1875"
Captain Clemons belongs to life
saving family, being one of three
brothers, each of whom received a medal
for heroic deeds in saving life.
The men are selected for their ability
as surfmen, swimmers and general fitness
in the management of boats, without re-
gard to politics, though all must be
American citizens. The crew is obliged
to sleep and eat at the life-saving station
building. The men are fine athletic
fellows, as agile in their movements as
gymnasts. Their water costume is blue
Jersey suit with red cap. Full rubber
suits, with boots and helmet in one
piece, hang in the station ready for use
in violent weather. These can be in
Hated to assist movement.
Point Marblehead has rock lined
coast. It is lime quarry district and
the tourist finds prehistoric America

rock or bit of stone he picks up. There
is an important point of commerce in
lime here, which precludes any necessity
for other industries.

made like the upper part of pair of
breeches with the legs cut off, through
which openings the legs of the rescued
are thrust while the body remains firm
and safe in the top part. There is a good
deal of apparatus about the breeches buoy,
but it does not take long to get it to-
gether A cart is loaded with three-inch
hawser. There is whip line on reel
"a tackle-a shot line and Lyle gun,
shot, ammunition, shovel and picks, a
sand anchor, crotch and breeches
buoy.
When all was in readiness the shot was
fired. 1t is billet of lead-with the line
attached to it. In this case high spar
at the end of the pier did duty for a
wrecked vessel With this line the whip line
was hauled off to the wreck by the man
on board and made fast. Then the haw-
ser was hauled off by the whip line, all
three lines seeming to move with stimuli
taneous speed and precision. The sand
anchor being buried, the shore end of
the hawser is led through a snatch block
attached to the hawser and set taut with
the tackle. When the crotch was raised
near the surf the breeches buoy was sent
out by the whip line and the man on the
spar--as high as ships mast-stcpped
into it and was swung over the pier and
the beach to his comrades. This descrip-
ton makes the affair seem tedious, but it
could not have been that to ship
wrecked man on the mast of submerged
vessel in n surf that no life boat could
have endured, for from the time the order
was given and the man was landed in the
brecches buoy was three minutes and
twcnty-seyen seconds. The distance from
the sand anchor to the practice spar was
300 yards. The average spectator at the
breeches buoy drill can hardly distinguish
between the lines which arc run out
80 rapidly side by side, but they heartily
applaud when the man in the buoy is
landed. The report of the singularly
loaded cannon is tremendous, and the
spectacle of crowd of spectators with
hands pressed tightly over their ears Is
amusing in the extreme. while their in

they re-embarked on the little steamboat
Osceola and in the course Of an hour
or two of very pleasant sailing were
landed at Mablehead pier, and cordially
received by Captain Lucien N. Clemons
and his crew, who escorted the party to
the station, which was in admirable
order, Notwithstanding the fact that the
visit of the inspector was in the nature
of a surprise. The new paint on the
station house, which is dark red color,
made a fine appearance under a
coat of sand flies, every one of
which had died at its post and
stuck there with extended wings. The
jolly Captain said with grim humor
that he was thankful the paint had dried
before the sand-fies came, but he did not
state how much worse the consequences
would have been if it had not. The In
spector was ready for business, and so
evidently were the crew of number nine.
In immediate response to a signal the
large life-boat, the Diadem, was run out
of the station on an iron truck down to
the waters edge. Seven surf1nen and
the Captain sprang into her, all having
instantly changed from regulation dress
to the blue jersey trunks and jackets
of the uniform and with quick and
simultaneous motion were at their oars.
Then came the order ''to capsize.". The
great boat rolled over and the men dis
appeared beneath. She went clean over
and righted from the other side-the men
all in their places at the ears-dripping
from their bath in the lake. From the
moment the order was giren to launch
the boat, until the men were at stake with
their oars, was just twenty seconds.
Having shown the stability and safety Of
the beautiful boat, and illustrated its
self-righting and self -bailing qualities, as
we'll as the thorough discipline of its
trained crew, the Inspector next gave
the order to save drowning man. One
of the men personated the drowning man,
and another went to the rescue, swim
ming with one hand and bring
ing in the unresisting man with the
other. The rescuer swan to the boat
with his burden, keeping the head above
water. It was done with ease, strength
and the stroke of the scientific swimmer.
When this was done the men all sprang
from the boat into the lake. Duty was over
and play began. They sported in the
water like seals and the liveliest and
ablest of the crowd was their Captain,
who dived like fish, and foated like a
porpoise. They went through manual
of evolutions which displayed their en-
durance and capability in the water and
the perfect condition of their limbs, wind
! and muscles.
In the evening at 8 o'clock there was
an experiment made with most interest

paratus which receives the rescued being

The Biggest Policeman.

Says the Philadelphia Enqumer: "The
biggest policeman in the United States,
with one exception, is Lieut.. Malin, who
is now in charge of the Twenty first dis.
trict in West Philadelphia. He issix feet
Eve inches in height and carries himself
with the precision of veteran. Night
or day he is always on the go, and the
citizens of his district speak of him with
the utmost kindness. He doesn't tell
his weight to anybody, but judging from
his appearance it must be that of two or
three ordinary men. He is a strict dis
ciplinarian and never asks a patrolman
to 90 where he is not willing to lead"
