now for the Government to do some
thing in return; :. and still they wait.
What have they done that they
should be so signally Sighted?
They are blamed for the filthy state
of their streets, state which they
cannot help. How can thorough

drainage, be otherwise!
1t may not have been within the
means of the Government to have
thoroughly made and macadamized
all the streets named. Nor was this
expected. But what the BULLETIN
suggested years ago could have been
done then, as beginning, and can
be done now, at trihing cost. 1t is
this: Grade; fill up the pits with
the banks; round up the centre with
earth from the outer sides, thus
creating drainage from the centre
and opening channels for the escape
of water; pack with the steam roller
This would make good fair-weathcr

let THE DEAD DOG LIE.

EDIToR BULLETIN In this morn
ing's Advertiser Y Y utters another
wall over the lost cause. There is
so much of clerical cant about it
that fellow is almost impelled to
throw Bible at him and say, "Nerily,
thou hast been weighed" etc.
Something always reminds the
pious mawworm of "story,' and
this one is by y X:
''It has been said that in the early
days of the mission in these Islands,
Chinaman who had picked up a
little English in the course of his
migrations, called upon missionary
who asked him if he had ever heard
of God and his claims on mankind.
'Oh, yes,' he replied, worship God,
worship devil, alice same. "
If ever Chinaman was in this
yarn, it would prove him to have
been keen observer: that is, pro-
vided that the elect of the "early
days of the mission" were anything
like some of them are in these latter
| days. Paul, the great apostle, once
wrote of n certain sell of prOfessed
believers and said. "their god is
their belly" Possibly this was an
exaggerated expression; and the
Chinaman, who was probably ignor-
ant of the Westminster Confession
or even the Shorter Catechlsm, might
have intended to convey his impres,
sion of the relative moral value--in
praclice-of the gods of China and
Boston.
"And 10! Like a lot of unrcason-
ing sheep, the Hawaiian again turns
to and elects the teacher of perjury
and some of the very men whose
corruption led to the Reform move
ment which they so substantially
endorsed but two years previously"

SHAMEFUL NEGLECT.

one OF tne SOOu results OI tne IRE
of April, 1886, which destroyed the
greater part of Chinatown, was the
opening of new streets, and the wld-
ening and extension of old ones.
The Government of the day en-
braced the opportunity presented,
and prohibited the erection of build
ings in the devastated district until
the new lines of streets had been
marked. Bethel, Nuuanu, King,
Maunakea, Smith, and Hotel streets
were widened, and the latter two eX-
tended. A new street was opened
parallel with Maunakca street, and
about midway between it and the
King street bridge. Another new
street was opened from Smith street
TO the Nuuanu stream, at right
angles with Beretania street, 1t has
been recently extended at the east
end, TO connect with Nuuanu street,
and Smith street has been widened
at its upper end, near its junction
with Beretania street.
All these widenings, extensions,
and new streets are admitted to have
been needed, and therefore the cost
of the necessary land, ETC., proper
expenditure. Not only was-public
convenience to be served thereby,
but the public health was still more
deeply concerned. That portion of
the town, for the most part, was
densely populated, and the open
ings were too few and narrow for a
sufficient circulation of air to main
tain n healthful condition. More
lungs were needed, and the Govern
ment acted properly in providing
them; but the Government has neg
lected to put them into proper
breathing condition and herein has
failed of its duty.
Bethel, King, and Nuuanu streets
and a portion of Hotel street have
had some attention; but all thu
others remain as they were. Oit
streets that have been widened still
show the embankmcnts towards TIT
outer sides, where the old lines o
building existed; and the new
streets are full of pits and hanks
dangerous to travel. There is M
drainage, and it is next to impossi
bile to maintain cleanliness in SOM
places. The water stands in pools
and the masses of purifying gar
bage emit pestilential malaria. Tha
portion of street recently opened
between Nuuanu and Smith streets
is q quagmire and rubbish hole
Talk Of such places as convenience
for travel and business, and auXili
aries to health! They are positively
traps of danger and nurseries o
discase-disease, the germs of whicl
may be scattered from there to al
parts of the town. Honolulu is bet
ter without such lungs as belch fortl
nothing but nOxious odors, the seeds
of death.
The part of the town of which w
arc speaking is glaring shame,
visible disgrace to the department
of government charged with the car'
of public thoroughfares. Not sin
gle stroke, except the pulling dow
of shanties, has been done on thOs
streets by the present Administra
ton during its nearly three years o
office. The land owners and dweller
in that neglected region have pai'

A JUMBO RAFT.
The Largest Raft Ever Built TO Be Floated
from st. Johns, N. Be-, to New YOrk's Port
Seventeen Hundred Feet Long.

Special to the Gazette.
NEW YORK, June IA mammoth
raft, which eclipses in size Jogia's raft
Canda in December, 1887, will be towed
into port July l if the projectors of
the enterprise are favored with
good luck. Two powerful ocean
tugs left this city for St. Johns,
n. B., where they will take that giant
tow. The raft is consigned to James D.
Leary, who owned the great raft which
went adrift in 1887. The new raft is
larger than any ever built. The timber
was cut on the property of
James D. Leary just back
of St. Johns, N. B. The raft will
consist of seventeen sections, each 100
feet long, twenty-five feet thick and
thirty five feet wide, will draw fourteen
feet of water, aud Will project seven feet
above the waters edge. Each section of
the raft will be cigar-shaped,
and are strongly bound with
chains and connected by strong shackles.
The whole structure is designated
that in case of necessity one section
forming the whole raft in itself may be
cut adrift, and IN case there is danger of
loss TO the whole raft a greater
part may be saved. The raft will
be 100 feet long. Should the venture
prove successful it will revolutionize
transportation. 1t would require one
hundred schooners to freight this lumber
sawed which would add greatly to the
cost. Then the duty of 81 per 1000 feet
on imported lumber is not LEVIED on
lumber which is fioated in Uncle Sans
territory which item itself is no small
consideration.

TREASURE HUNTING.
Wreeking Vessels to Seek Fabulous Wealth
Sunk on the De aware Coast Nearly
Century Ago.
Special to the Gazette.

Special to the Gazette.
NEW YORK, June 1l.-Wrecking
steamer Rescue of the Merritt Wrecking
company, under command of Capt.
Demarest, sailed to-day for Cape Hen
l0pen, to begin operations for the recoV-
cry of the British sloop-of-war De
Braak, which capsized off the Delaware
coast on the 25th of May, 1898. There
is every reason to believe $40 900 900 in
Spanish gold is in the hold of the sunken
vessel, which is supposed to be lying on
the bottom somewhere off Cape Henlo-
pen. In 1880 a contract, was made
by the United States government with
the International submarine company of
New Haven. Conn, giving them ex-
elusive right to search for the treasure.
Under this contract the Ocean wrecking
company of Philadelphia, which has Sc
cured the services of the Merritt wrecking
company, will carry on the work.
Work begins tomorrow morning, and
in a fortnight several other wreck
ing vessels will join the Rescue
The Braak was commanded by Capt.
James Drew and was manned by eighty
six men, and her battery consisted of
sixteen brass carronades. She was or
dered to join the British West India
squadron to take part in the
war against Spain. On May rs, 1898,
the Braak arrived at Cape Henlopen
in company with the captured Spanish
vessel called Snow, whose valuable treas
ures were secure IN Capt. Drew g cabin.
The object of the Braak's commander
was to obtain water and provis-
ions for the crew and Spanish
prisoners, who numbered 2l3. After
securing water Capt. Drew set sail
after refusing to allow the pilot to &C.
company him. While casting anchor
about mile from the light ship, q sudden
suuall came up and laid her on her beam
ends, when she Immediately filled and
went down with the captain, thirty
eight officers, seamen and marines. The
rest of the ships company, including
the boatswaius, escaped in the ships
boat. Those that reached shore d
clared there was over $40, 900 900 the
cabin of the vessel, besides large guam
tity of precious stones. The English
government wanted on several occasions
to send wrecking party to seek the lost
treasure, but as the vessel was sunk so
near the coast of Delaware the United
States government claimed it.
