-Roxane. Would she never come?
Would the slow minutes never drag
themselves by? He whiled away the
tedious time by writing her love let

his pen, and, looking up, he saw that
she had come. He bowed low to her
duenna.
Love you sweets. madame?" he
asked. Yes? Take then these cream
cakes-see, put them in sonnet Of

Well, you seem fond Of proverbs, =

'Forewarned Is forearmed.' You will

I something which it was vital to my in

Pacific railway in the vicinity of Casa Grande and Arizola is at present, and with good reason considered one of the most desirable portions of this magnificent Southern Ari- zona. Great changes have been made in the appearance of this part of the valley during the last four years. It was about that long ago that the Florence canal was completed and the work of actual improvement begun. It is useless to deny that under our present water system there is nothing like suth- cient water to irrigate this vast body of land

Wilder had resigned the secretary

on account of Irregularities in

The Jockey Club had nothing to
do with that meeting Mr.. Wilder
resigned simply because he con-
sidered, after four years in the
Office, that someone else ought to
be given the work and RESPONSE
bility. More especially as he is

Has litigation increased so
much, since the Supreme Court
was made strictly appellate a few
years ago, as to require an addi-
tional Circuit Court Judge in the
First Circuit ? When the Supreme
Court with three Justices used to
do all that the Circuit Court does
now on this island, its members
also presided in rotation at all of
the terms of Circuit Courts
throughout the group. There was
not a larger proportion OF the
laws delays in those times, either,
than there is in these days. The
question now suddenly raised is
too important to be sprung upon
the Legislature in the flag end of a
session. 1t will stand public dis
cussion for a couple of years at
least.

BERETANIA STREET BRIDGE.


John Ouderkirk has completed
repairs to the Beretania street
bridge, damaged by the recent
freshet in Nuuanu stream. One
needle beam was broken by the
debris knocking against it and the
truss rods were adrift. This
caused the bridge to sag down in
the middle aud greatly weakened
it.
Originally the bridge was set
on reconstructed trestle. This
time the bridge was lacked and
the trestle work fitted under it.
Thus a perfect foundation is as %
sured. The bridge is now more
substantial than ever before. The
expense of repairs will fall near
5000.
