Col. Macfarlane Providing
an Annex for Hotel.
To Be Opened in Few Weeks.
Whole Scheme to Be Com
plete in Two Years.

Through the invitation OF Colonel
Macfarlane, a visit was paid by an
Advertiser reporter to the Bishop
premises on the Waikiki road where it
is proposed an annex 10 the Hawai-
ian hotel shall soon be established.
Laborers could be seen all over the
place attending TO the work Of grading,
filling, digging, trimming, and cutting
trees as well as, attending 10 all the
minor operations.
This the place leased from W. W.
Dimond and is on the town side of
Waikiki stream.
For a long time, guests Of the hotel
have been forced, when wishing for
a change from city 10 seaside life, to
secure cottages here and there or to
trust to the accommodations at vari-
Gus places that have been available
for a long time. This is all TO be done
away with soon.
The plan at present is 70 add an
other story to the Bishop house and
to make this temporary affair Tor
the immediate needs. This can be
available in a few weeks.
Colonel Macfarlane expects to COM
nlete all additions and improvements
on the place inside of two years. When
this is done the whole aspect OF the
place will have been changed. Ihere
are to be from Is to 20 cottages at Yarl-
Gus places on the ground. Or these,
few will be just makai OF the Ily
pond that now borders so closely on
the street. Rustic bridges, will lead
10 the cottages, where, at all seasons
of the year, cooling breezes from love-
ly Manoa will blow and scenery IN
that same place will cheer. These cot
tages will be designed particularly for
families whose wish it is to seek rest
during the summer months. Here I'M
der the cooling palms they may have
their rest and in the sea short dis
lance away, their recreation.
Out near the town boundary VIII be
erected a two story structure with la
mai running out into the sea. Here
people wishing for a night or early
morning dip. may have their rooms.
AS to recreation, tennis ana CIOQuet
grounds Will be laid out and picnic
grounds arranged. Canoes will be
available at all times with experienc-
ed native paddlers TO give the tjmid
assurance. Boats will be placed on
the ponds and the stream near by.
As to bathing, no better can be found
in the city. An almost perfect semi
! circle with the whitest of sand bot
toms is available at all times. Just
now. the coral that is TO be found is
| being blasted out to give still bet
ter place.
Such is a brief outline Of what is
to be one of the most popular Of re-
sorts-a place that Honolulu should
have had ere this.
The Macfarlanes have a 80 years
lease on the premises so that for many
moons to come people may have the
pleasure of going to a thoroughly up
to-date seaside resort, The location
is the very best, both from the stand
point of scenery, both mountain and
marine, and GOODNESS.

men wanted the 1898 rules. They held
that playing with the rules of last sea-

progress in tennis matters was what
was wanted. the players should not go

would be easy for them to master the
