Fine New Pleasure Boats.

For a long time Honolulu has
felt the need of a bcathouse with
good boats for the use of the pub
lie. That need has been supplied.
Messrs. Ball and Shaw have built
a fine floating house, and have an
chored it near the boardwalk lead
ing out to Kalakaua's old boat
house. In it are contained two
two-pair cared sliding seat and
two-pair Dared stationary seat boats,
as well as a ladies pleasure boat,
built out of six different kinds Of
native wood, and several single
pair cared boats. These were all
built by Mr.. Ball. This gentleman
intends building several more row
boats, together with three or four
small sail boats for the use of the
public.

Oueer Freaks of Papaia Tree.

The papaia tree is a very queer
one, according to a well-known
lady of the city. She says that at
one time she planted the seeds of
very sweet papaia near bamboo,
and when the fruit from the result
ing trees ripened, the fruit, instead
Of being sweet, was insipid and
stringy, tasting decidedly of bam-
boo. At another time she planted
some seeds near a pool into which
the waste water from the kitchen
was allowed to Cow. The resulting
fruit was very tough and with very
little taste. She intends very soon
20 plant some papaias near sugar
cane to see if this will have any
effect upon the taste.

NEED OF A PATROL WAGON
How a Public Improvement Can be
Easily Made.
A Bill to Appoint n Police Comnaission
to he Submitted to the Next
Legislature.

Important questions present
themselves every day for the con-
sideration of the newly elected law
makers, and it looks as though the
extra session will take up as much
time as a regular session usually
does. President Dole's land law,
the Japanese saki question, an
electric railroad franchise, and
many other bills are to be dis
posed of.
One member Of the Senate, who
realizes that Honolulu is growing
fast, and should adopt measures
now in use In other cities, is In
favor Of the appointment of a
police commission. His idea is to
make the Acknowledgement the
head of the body, which will con-
sist of five members. The duties
of the commission will be to super
wise the police department, make
important appointments, hear
charges against policemen, and In
other ways look after the depart
ment.
The members Of the commission
will have the power to make i'm
provements in the service, one of
which will be the purchase of a
patrol wagon. These wagons are
used In all cities and are particu-
larly valuable in place like Ho-
nolulu with its outlying districts.
The custom in force now necessi-
tates the absenting Of policeman
from his beat whenever he makes a
simple arrest. By the use Of the
patrol wagon this is avoided. All
the policeman has to do is to call
up the station, the wagon is sent
out, in charge Of an officer, and the
arrested man brought in.
The wagon is invaluable in case
of an accident. They are rugged
with modern appliances for carry
ing wounded people. At the present
day, if a man is badly injured, he
has nearly all of his remaining life
jolted out of him before he reaches
the hospital.

Sfoyaways Get Scared.

The steamers of the Canadian
Line, plying between Vancouver
and Sydney, via Honolulu, usual
ly have a number of stowaways on
board, but strange to say, when
the Warrimoo arrived on Monday
Officer Patterson was dumbfound-
ed TO learn that none were on
board. He learned the cause later
when he was informed that the
stowaways when returned to Van
couver were put in Jail. One of
the men, Harry Thorne, who was
locked up here was recently given
two months.

A RARE OPPORTUNITY
FOR INVESTMENT.

1t is proposed to place the Ostrich
Farm OF the late DR.. Trousseau on
the market in January or February
next. This farm is thoroughly
equipped and now has thirty-four
healthy birds on same, including the
famous male ostrichs Jumbo and Jno
l.. Sullivan.
We believe that it can be demon
strated that this enterprise, new to
these islands, but of long standing
in Africa, New Zealand and Califor.
MIA, can be now carried on at profit
as the experimental stage has been
safely passed.
Mr.. A. 2. Jackson, the genial
manager can always be found in
attendance at the grounds.
We have on hand large number
of prime feathers in assorted colors
from the last plucking which are
easily worth $50 per pound and up
wards according to quality. The
next plucking takes place in January
next. Prospectuses, Information
concerning the feather market and
all necessary data will be furnished.
H All reliable persons desirious
of visiting the grounds can do so by
first obtaining permits from the
