and not likely to meet with any strong
objection, while, from an aesthetic
point of view, it must be considered a
decided improvement.
The difficult problem of devislng
two human figures as supporters has
been happily solved by introducing
Kamehameha [. and the Goddess of
Liberty, both representing important
epochs in the history of Hawaii-the
old and new respectively. The con-
trast of color and sex suggesting not
only reconciliation, but the fusion of
the races with one another.
The irradiating sun above the shield
is symbolic of the new era which
dawned upon Hawaii with the advent
of the Republic. while the fabulous
bird "Phoe nix" is Hawaii nei herself,
rising, rejuvenated, from the ashes of
the monarchy. The taro leaves, ferns,
ETC., are suggestive of the fruitfulness
of the soil and the tropical verdure of
the country.
The fact that the committee was of
the opinion that the old motto should
be retained induced Mr.. Jacobson TO
give it greater prominence than here
tofore, and, in this particular, he fol-
lowed the plan carried out in all of
the seals in the American States.

TREE PLANTING ON MOLOKAI
Thirty Thousand Trees Sprout-
ing Up-A Native Tree.

ing y PA Native AhCS'
Commissioner Marsden had a
letter from Florist Rhodes by the
Mokolii stating that excellent
progress is being made in the con-
struction of the sheds at the settle
ment.
About 10000 blue gum trees
have sprouted two or three inches.
OF the seeds planted about 10000
have come up. Mr.. Rhodes re-
ports a native tree, the milo, grow
ing SO near the beach that the salt
water is constantly splashing over
it. The foliage, however, is a beau
tiful dark green. One of these
same trees is growing in the nur-
sery and another in Sam AlTen's
yard. Seeds from this tree will be
secured and planted along the
coast line as a wind break.

Hawaii in the matter of scrolls O.

Hawaii in the matter of scrolls or
escutcheons.
In working out his ideas he seems
retain from the old coat-of-a arms as
much as possible and to modify it
only sufficiently to meet the exigen-
cies of the new order of things.
He evidently had good reasons for
this, for the old design has much to
commend it, having been executed by
the College of Heraldry in London,
England, upon suggestions made by
the late Haalilio, man whose abili-
ties were held in high esteem by for
eigners and natives alike.
Mr.. Jacobson considered that it was
sound principle to refrain from
making very radical change, there
by avoiding the confusion which
would be caused by the adoption of a
perfectly new composition, however
beautiful in itself, which would be un-
FAM liar to persons at home and un-
recognizable to anyone abroad The
fact that the Government had in its
request for designs shown some re-
gard for traditions gave the designers
ample scope in laying out their work
and in embOdying some of the es
| >ential characteristics of the old seal
| IN the new.
Mr.. JacObson's design serves the pur-
pose of illustrating the evolution of
| Hawaiian history, past, present and
| future. Proceeding on these lines the
original great seal, the keystone of
| the whole fabric, has been preserved
III its entirety.
That the eight bars of the national
banner represent the eight inhabited
islands under one rule is known the
world over, and in this connection
Mr.. Jacobson submits that the eight
stars in the second and third quarter
OF the present seal are superf1uOus and
| lacking in originality, and the reten
tiOn of the distinctly typical staff of
authority in the fields is more iustifi-
able. The peculiar significance is
| forcibly set forth in Thrum's Annual
in an article descriptive of the seal :.
THE white ball, ETC., with which
the second and third squares are
charged was an ancient emblem
of the country called PuIOuIou, and
| they were placed at the right and left
of the gateway, or door, of the chisrs ;
| house to indicate protection, or place
! Of refuge, to which persons might flee
from danger and be safe.''
The substitution, on the other hand,
| in the center of the single star of
| Hawaii (whOse ultimate destiny it,
! probably, is to become engrafted upon
! the escutcheOn of the greatest of all
| the Republics) for the ancient embel-
| ishments, triangular banner, argent
| leaning upon cross satire, the exact
meaning and origin of which are, to a
! large extent, shrouded in obscurity,

CIRCUS LAST NIGHT.
A Good Audience-August Santos
Gets the Watch. &.

There was a good-sized audience
in the circus tent last night, and
an excellent performance was pre-
sented. Each artist did the very
best possible to entertain the peo-
pie. Little Muriel Wirth scored
another success.
During the entertainment the
management gave away very
handsome lady's gold watch. The
lucky ticket-holder was August
Santos, a driver for Hustace q Co.
Ticket No. Il drew the prize. As
it was the seventeenth ticket sold,
it proves that it is best to 90 early
and avoid the rush.

Report on Pail Road.
The Pali road com mission present
ed it's report as follows:
1--WE have carefully examined the
Nuuanu Pail with reference to the
construction of a new wagon road.
"On the South side the gentle slope
into Nuuanu valley presents no diff
ficulties. On the North side there is
very steep rocky slope. Here line
| of road with grade of 134 per cent
was located by w. r. Lawrence in
1882. This location runs through the
lowest pass with cut of 13 feet at the
summit.
"a line was located by w. w.
Bruner in 1889 with grade of per
| cent, and construction was begun on
this line the same year. In place of a
steep grade in the old road approach
| ing the Pali from the South side,
about one-fourth of mile of new
road was built on a grade of per
cent, also about 400 feet over the
summit and at the beginning of the
descent on the North side. These two
pieces of road are now part OF the
travelled road. On the same location
| length of 1000 feet was constructed
at the lower end of the grade. This
portion has not been used. Both of
these lines and the present road are
shown on the accompanying map.
"The accompanying profile across
the Paw shows a possible tunnel. Its
value is not commensurate with its
cost. The grade of the tunnel shown
here passes 200 feet below the summit
of the gap. The summit of the grade
is 80 feet higher, or only ITO feet
lower than the gap The Northern
portal of the tunnel would be on a
very steep slope, along which the
! grade would be continued.
| " A tunnel as shown would shorten
the road nearly half mile. 1t would,
| however, be an Objectionable feature
! for wagon road. Its cost would be
| about $4,000, while the cost of the
rest of the road would be reduced
comparatively little thereby. Taking
| into consideration the nature of the
traffic and the topography, as well as
! the grades and the condition of the
roads leading to the Pail, we think
that a grade of per cent. is suitable
one, and that the line located by Mr.
Bruner presents the most economic
location Of the road. The fact tha
the road mas been partly constructed
on this line is an additional reason
for adopting it. The amount already
expended is $4,000. OF this amount
$500 was paid for the survey anC
location.
"The detection in this line TOWARD
the East is favorable for future road
