BICYCLE PARK.
Proposition OF &. :. Desky to Be
Considered at a Meeting


Just at this time, everything per
tanning TO bicycling is of great inter
est. The craze is on the city in all its
fury, and from recent demonstrations
the end is far Off Recognizing this
fact. those most deeply interested in a
bicycle track and park, a subject al
ready discussed in Honolulu, have de-
clded 10 call meeting which will
probably be held tomorrow night. for
the purpose of considering the PROPOSE
ton made by Mr.. c. S. Desky regard
ing the building of a track, fence and
other necessary parts toward the COM
pletion of the park as a whole at Ka-
walo, this to cost in the neighborhood
OF SS,OOO, the amount to be provided by
the issuance of stock placed at a fig
ure low enough to allow any and all TO
come in. Probably s. will be the fig
ure.
Mr.. Desky says that a roadway
through the property of Frank Hus-
tace on South street is an assured
thing. This will place the park within
about 200 feet from King street.
If the proposition should be accepted
the work will begin at a very near date.
The opportunity is one that cannot be
obtained every day in the week. and
there is no reason why bicycle enthu-
siasts in the city cannot, without the
aid of the business men, build the track
with their own money
Every one interested in the matter
should attend the meeting, announce
ment of which will be made in a day
or So
