Noble Young, from the Commit
tee on Central Fire Station, report
ed on the item in the Appropriation
Bill for the erection of new Cen
trail Station and to the effect that
by erecting more unpretentious
building than that originally plan
ned, structure possessing all the
accommodations conveniences, neat
ness and substantial features origin
ally intended may be erected and
completed for the sum of $4,000.
Inside finish and external ornamen-

time, so that $685. 600 would now sup
ply building which would answer
the purposes admirably and supply
a long-felt want in Honolulu.

Government for the premises occu-
pied by the several fire companies

times their money, and occasionally
their lives for the public good.

committee learn that for want of
proper places to put them the costly
appliances belonging to the Depart
ment often get damaged and I'M

were places for everything no such
loss would be incurred The COM
