WAIKIKI.

[ Written for the DAILY ADVERTISER by
E. ELLSWORTH CAREY
The snowy sail fits lightly by,
The aeecy clouds as lightly fly,
And paint their glories on the sky,
On the shores of Waikiki.
The listless sea-bird dips it's wing,
The listless buoys family ring,
And listless, too, my song / sing,
On the shores of Waikiki.
Here darkly frowns grim Diamond Head,
Here sinks the sun in tinted red,
And stars peep out when day has fed,
On the shores of Waikiki
The jasper sea in blue and gold,
The dreamy beach embraces bold,
And thoughts arise that ne'er are told,
On the shores of Waikiki.
Here moonlit waters CLEAN and glow,
Here scented breezes ever blow,
And murm'r ring tides In azure flow,
On the shores of Waikiki.
Elysian moonlight of our dreams,
Here bathes the scene with fairy beams,
And every leaf in silver CLEANS,
On the shores of Waikiki.
Here Summer folds her feecy wings,
Here Beauty all her treasure brings,
Here Peace her glory ever sings.
On the shores of Waikiki.

The Peninsula of
Pearl City!

This truly enchanting location for sub
urban homes must be seen to be appre-
clated; lovely grove of algeroba trees
covers the entire grounds, streets so feet
in width are laid out, and inch pipes
are beng laid to conduct water from
l0-inch artesan we'll which is pro-
| nounced by McCandless Bros. to flow
the sweetest water of all the wells thew
have bored on this island. The Railway
90. have constructed two reservoirs with
a storage capacity of over two million
gallons, and built fume extending 80
miles into Waiawa, Valley, which in
years OF ordinary rainfall will supply an
abundance of pure water for a large
population; to guard against such
droughts as we have experienced during
the present year, the Company have or
dered Blake Pump with a capacity of
100000 gallons per day, which will be
replaced by one or more of larger capa-
city when needed. This pump now due
from the manufacturers will he placed at
once at the artesian we'll from which
water will be forced into the reservoirs.

A block containing an area OF five

BRADSTREETTS STATISTICS.

In the issue for August 22c
Bradstreet publishes some inter
esting "Social Statistics of Cities
in various parts of the United
States.
These statistics are issued as 6
bulletin by the census Office and
provide information on the subjects
of street-paving, cleaning and
lighting, water works, sewers, and
the police and fire departments,
Enquiries were addressed to all
cities of 10000 inhabitants and up
wards, in number 345, of which
over 200 have made complete re-
turns. The total population of
these $40 cities was 1921, 479
being an increase of 60.57 per cent.
since 1880.
Of these cities Chicago, the Sec
ond IN population has by far the
largest area 16O.57 square miles,
while New York with the largest
population is only the seventh as
regards area covering 1929 square
miles.
Next to Chicago both in area
and population comes PhiIadel-
phia with 1898 square miles, and
1,046, 1854 inhabitants. These three
cities are the only ones in the
States counting over million in
habitants. In density of popula-
ton New York is naturally at the
head of the list, the average being
37,675 to the square mile, Brook
Ign with 30,474 and Hoboken with
1862 coming next. These aver
ages however being for the whole
city give but little idea of the dem
sity of population in some dis
tricts, and it's sparsity in others,
as for instance, in the tenth ward
New York city there are 474 per-
sons to the acre and in the twenty.
fourth only 3 to the acre.
Coming to the death rate of
twenty of the largest cities Newark
has the highest 1912 per thousand,
New York being second at 28.6
and Minneapolis the lowest with
14.8. Here it is possible to make
some sort of comparison, though it
cannot be in any way accurate, as
it must be remembered that the
Honolulu figures are for one month
only, August, 1891, while the U. S.
Census figures do not specify any
limited period and are apparently
an average for the ten years.
The Honolulu death rate (all
nationalties) for August was
81 per thousand, or two per
thousand higher than Newark
and more than double that of Min
neapolis. Of % great towns in
England during the third week in
August the average is 1873 per
thousand of their aggregate popu-
lation, Preston, the highest proper
ton on the list, gives 28.5, the same
as New York; while Derby with
III, the lowest, is three per thous.
and below Minneapolis; Chicago |
and Liverpool are alike at gil;
London is one per thousand better.
With water and gas statistics we |
have nothing to compare except in
cost. The highest annual charge
per household is in Dallas, Texas, |
where it Is $31, and the lowest in
w ashington, where it is $3.50. In
Honolulu the lowest rate is $3.50,
and the supply intermittent and
often wholly inadequate for the
reasonable needs of q family.
In New York the total cost of
water works was s4OOOO,OOO, yet
he annual charge is only Sc, for

look. We don't believe the
butter will keep any longer or
will taste any sweeter moulded
in these that we have, but they
are as good as any we ever
saw. They're no use to you
if you don't make butter.
Woodenware isn't hard
ware, is it? But that's one OF
the lines we offer you this
week. Hash bowls, or rather
bowls in which to chop meat
are made of wood, and we
have EN-; some of them small
enough for two; others large
enough for the parties who
have been in business long
enough to raise large families.
We have them to fit any size.
A new lot of carriage whips,
some of them you would want
to use on a $1,000 animal. We
have others, plenty good
enough for a horse not worth
$40. The style and work
manship governs the price.
You'll want a good one.
Some Buhac" this time ;
strong enough to knock down
a bill collector, and it's a
harder thing to do that than it
is to kill mosquitoes. We don't
know how true it is but we've
been told that any mosquitoes
who get a Whit Of this powder
and manage to get away, tell
their neighbors, and that set
ties the mosquito nuisance.
We don't vouch for this state
ment E; take it for what it's
worth.
We have a fish kettle in,
agateware that looks like
pretty good thing. 1t seems
as though fish boiled in one
of them ought to taste lots
better than the ordinary way
of dousing them in hot water
and boiling all the substance
out of the fish. You don't
have to spoil your fish in one
of these kettles. THEY'RE
cooked in steam-the hot
water needn't touch 'em. Of
course they won't taste as
good as those cooked a la
Hawaiian in tea leaves, that's
the best way in the world, but
it isn't every one who knows
how to cook EN- that way.
Take the next best thing then
and buy an agate fish kettle.
1t there are engineers or
machinists in town who are in
want of an oil can with a very
long spout to it, long enough
to enable you to oil parts of
the machinery without danger
OF losing life or limb, we can
help them. Polished brass is
the material and they're bright
to be used as a mirror
when you don't want to use
them for oil. They don't cost
half as much as a new arm
and they're cheaper than an
accident policy of insurance.
If there's anything we don't
advertise and you want it, we
will get it for you.

calculated to excite and tantalize her. and in
her undertaking she succeeded admirably.
Louisa became greatly excited and hot words
passed between them until a teacup went
through the air with considerable force.
Louisa threw the cup and it landed against
Lizzie's eye, inficting painful wound.
Johanna Fleck, a young girl who went to
work In the house yesterday, witnessed the
affair and she became frightened and left when
she saw the cup thrown.
Lizzie procured a magistrates warrant for
Louisa and she was arrested and held at the
fourth police station last evening. This morn
ing sine WAS taken to the Police Court, where
Lawyer Sillers defended her. He claimed that
she was exempt from arrest and prosecution on
account OF her employment. but inquiry de-
yeloped the fact that she was not shielded by
her diplomatic relations.
The little woman was then tried and she ad-
mitted that she threw the cup, but claimed
that it was in self-defense.
Judge Miller thought she had no right to
throw the cup and fined her IS.
Lawyer Sillers asked that the court suspend
saying that the woman only had IS,
but the judge said that he had made the pen
atty light and she would have to pay it
