An Appeal to the Charitable.


DEAR SIR: Permit me to call the attention of the
sympathetic public, through the columns OF The
xEgis to the terrible misfortune TO the two little
children of Mrs. Alice Dennis. near Garland Post
Office who were bitten severely by a cat supposed
to be rabid
The manner in which the cat acted left no doubt
In the minds of those who were witnesses to the
occurrence that ii was a true case OF rabies. In
view OF the facts developed by the Pasteur system
of treatment of persons bitten by hydrOphobic
animals and in consideration of the awful horrors
awaiting these children, / deem it highly proper
to inform the public of the occurrence and ask
that some steps be taken to secure to these two
unfortunates the benefits of the PaSteur treatment
Such treatment cannot be had short of New York
CITY, where an institution has been founded for the
treatment of these cases. This is no ordinary case
calling for sympathy and as Mrs. Dennis is an un-
fortunate widow, without the necessary means to
secure to her children the treatment necessary in
this case, it surely becomes the duty of humanity
to contribute a sufficient sum to defray the ex-
penses of these children to the PaSteur Institution.
1t is possible that these children might remain at
home under ordinary treatment and escape the
awful malady, but on the other view, if they should
not escape il would be horrible thought that any
Christian community would heedessly permit such
an end that might be averted. These children
were bitten by the cat on last Friday, the Sth. No
time should be lost III sending them to New York.
Yours Truly, GEO. X. STEPHENSON.

Duncan.

One of the best-bred horses in Hartford county is
Duncan. owned by MIR. b. F. Darbie, of Clermont
Mills. Duncan was sired by Dictator, full
brother of the celebrated horse Dexter, 2174, the
sire of Jay Eye See, 2,10, and other well-knOwn
Irotters. His pedigree is unquestionabe and EN-
braces happy combination of the best racing
blood known in the country. One of Duncan's
sons, Wateryiew, a handsome three yearold, now
owned in Baltimore, is valued at 5000 One of
Duncan's daughters, also owned in Baltimore, has
been in training at Pimlico only since April 18th
and has shown a trial in 2S2. Mr.. Darbie has re-
fused $3.50 cash for a yearling coltby Duncan:
Duncan is a beautiful bay Is hands high, can
show, without training. better than 2.4O, and is
very handsome and stylish. In breeding to Dun
can If farmers miss getting fast trotter they are.
at least certain to get superior horse for the road
or for general purposes.
Mr.. Darbie Is TO be congratulated upon the pos
session of so valuable horse, and his enterprise,
as well that of other breeders in the county, de-
serves the highest commendatiOn, We hope the
day is not far distant when Hartford county will
take high rank as place where tirst-class horses
can be procured. When our county can show
purchasers large number of good horses, high
prices can be obtained.

road was broken up for the neces'
sary width, the rails laid at level
prescribed by the Government, the
space between the rails and two
feet outside each rail was macadam-
lied by the Tramway Company,
and the width of the sidewalk re-
constructed, or not, as was practic-
able or convenient to the Govern
ment.
We have only to lock around
and see very apt illustrations of
how the work ought to be done
and of how it ought not to be done,
one of the former and two of the
latter.
In Fort street, above Beretanla
street, the roadway is now being
reconstructed on the Waikiki side.
The whole roadway from sidewalk
to rails is we'll graded, well laid,
and we'll rolled flush with the rails.
1t will bother neither Government
nor Tramway Company, nor the
public, for years, with perhaps a
little occasional patching. This is
how it ought to he done.
In Nuuanu avenue from Pauoa
towards the town. the company is
renewing its two foot line on either
side of the rails, but from the edge
Of this new work to the sidewalk,
are ruts and ridges; indeed from
Pauoa to School street, the road
has never been properly re-made
on the Eva side, since 1t was torn
up for the new water service,
nearly two years ago. The conse-
quence is plain:
The work in the two foot space,
will be cut up, burst, and worked
down into the slough on either side
of it, till the rails are again left
bare and two inches above the
road.
The company's rails and road
bed wero pitched unnecessarily
high in the first instance, and the
road has never been graded up to
the same level, so of necessity, the
raised two feet outside the rails is
speedily pounded away into the
lower level. The same causes and
effects, to an even greater degree
may be seen in Alakea street, from
Berctania to Hotel streets, the
same high level rail, the Same low
level road bed, and the same des-
truction of the two-foot road.
The fact is that the Government
and tho company should endeavor
to work together more or less, or
each will only destroy instead of
fortffy the others work.
Nuuanu and Alakea streets show
how the work ought NOT to be
done, and the two sides of Fort
street give an admirable illustra-
ton of the above remarks.

STREET RAILWAYS AND STREETS.
September, 1891.

A mere cursory inspection of
Honolulu roads, urban and subur-
ban, will reveal o state of affairs
which in reality is the outcome of
disorganlzation and cross purposes
rather than cooperation between
the parties responsible to the pub
lie for the maintenance of these
highways.
The Tramway Company, by the
conditions of their franchise, are
bound to construct and maintain q
good roadway between their rails
and for two feet on the outside of
either rail, and the space between
the two pairs of rails wherever
there is loop or passing point,
this roadway to be kept up flush
with the rails; from the two-foot
line to the sidewalk the mainten-
ance of the road is the business of
the Government.
Now let us see how this works.
When the rails were first laid the
