BE Made TO the Legislature.

There will he many important meas
ures introduced at the next session of
the Island Legislature i'm February.
Even in the advent of the absorption
of Hawaii by the United States this
will he the case, for i'm the opinion
of Senator Morgan and other well in
formed men of the United States tine
Islands will not he formally taken ny
Uncle Sam until year later, prob
ably on the first day of the year 1899
In the meantime the affairs of this
country will he conducted by the
present government. The Legislature
will be called upon to provide for such
legislation as is necessary.
That Improvements on the streets
and roads of Honolulu and the adia-
cent country districts will be among
the matters to be acted upon is Ger
tain. 1t is quite likely that the Min
lister of the Interior win make recon-
mendations for certain Improvements
which will receive the approval of the
President and he submitted to the
Legislature for its pleasure.
An appropriation will be needed TO
carry ON the work of widening Fort
street from King street to School
street. There is also demand for the
extension of Fort street from School
to Pauoa road. Whether this will be
tackled next year is doubtful.
Property owners along Nuuantr
street and avenue are complaining or
the bad condition of the street. Road
Supervisor Cummins says that this
state of affairs is due entirely to the
high grade of the TramwaN car track.
The road supervisor has been endeav-
oring for some time to induce the
Tramway management to lower its
grade but this the management posi-
lively decline to do. insisting that the
present grade was the grade furnish
ed them by the government and that
it is the legal grade.
If this he the case then the Govern
men- win be obliged to rebuild Nun
anu street from Beretania street to
the terminus of the Tramway ear
tracks beyond Pauoa road.
At present the road is lob-sided and
very irregular. The road supervisor
has had several men patching the road
as best they can, during the past
three weeks.
Residents along Pauoa road want
that thoroughfare widened.
y strong effort will be made by the
residents along the Waialua road &c
have that highway improved as far 1t,
KOko head. Worlmen are now engag.
ed putting in a rock top road from
the city to Paul Isenberg's Waialat
ranch. What is wanted is the contin
uation of this work from Isenberg's
on down to short distance of kOkC
head. This improvement would IN
volve big expense.
Many other street and road improve
ments will be petitioned for and ;
great many will be denied as it would
be impossible to accomplish all tho
work i'm n years time.

The cleanest, brightest safest and really,
in the long run, the cheapest and best light
for use in the family residence, is the mean
descent electric light. Safe; nothing could
be safer. A few days ago prominent gen.
tleman of Honolulu came rushing down to
the office of the Electric Company and said:
"Give me figures for wiring my house, and
want it done at once; no more lamps for me.
Last night lamp tipped over and it came
so near setting fire to the house and burning
my children and l take no more risks"
This is the sentiment of quite a number in
the past few weeks, who have ordered their
houses fitted with the perfect light.

DismOunt.
From the New York Sun.
In the household of William M. Fuller,
clerk of the court of special sessions, is
fine specimen of the flying squirrel,
which amuses itself, when not engaged in
wandering about the house, with its own
ers bicycle Mr.. Fuller believes it to
be the only bicycling squirrel in the coun-
try, and is very proud of it. Its record
by the cyclometer is ten miles a day.
The animal came into Mr. Fuller's pos
session in a peculiar and sudden way.
While at Budd's Lake, N. j., Mr. Fuller
went stroling in the woods with one of
his nephews. The boy pointed out hole
in tree near the path and said:
THAT looks as if a squirrel or something
lived in there"
More likely a woodpecker," said his
uncle You get a club and go hammer
on the tree, and Wei see if anything lives
there"
The boy found stout stick and gave the
tree a whack that made hollow sound
No sooner had he followed this UP with an
other blow than head popped out of the
hole and the next instant a black object
that looked to Mr. Fuller as big and as
formidable as a cyclone cloud came sail
ing directly at that astonished gentleman's
face Hitting out in instructive defense
he knocked the object to the ground and
seized it, only to be bitten severely on the
finger But he hung on, and wrapping his
handkerchief around his prize he got ~
