Festuie..

The first big deal Of the year IN
suburban properly Vas made yesterday
and the active ana progressive Mt
Dosky, who never makes a mistake
about land. was the buyer by his en-
ergy and persistence and with his
boldness about handing out money, Mr.
Desky has secured a tract for which in.
dividuals and combinations have sew
eral times negotiated within the past
six months
Mr.. Desky has secured the Booth
estate in Pauoa valley. There are $50
acres, beginning at the junction Of
Judd street at the Waikiki end and the
extension of Fort street. Entrance 60
the premises Is from Pauoa road. just
on Nuuanu street. What is now known
as the Booth road will be changed In
route and will be a wide mscadamized
boulevard, winding around the ridge,
which Is yet TO be named. The prop
erty adioins Nuuanu valley, having for
one border the homesteads OF III. Rem
ies, +. A. Schaefer. the Royal MausO-
leum, the Mark Robinson and Give
Davies homes. The tract runs a mile
up the valley, is 800 feet wide az the
widest point and in the part that Is 20
be put upon the market has an eleva-
ton Of from 1870 to $50 feet The boule-
ward will have a grade not To exceed
four per cent and will touch the lises
OF the new Rapid Transit company. The
tract is naturally well wdtered and Is
also reached by the city mains In the
mauka end will be a park The slopes
| will be terraced. There are great
number Of fine building sites. No small
lots will be sold. The tract Is being
plotted and will be on the market in
about a month. Fully fortnight has
been occupied in making an abstract OF
title and this feature Is without a flaw
There are many springs on the ridge
and across the small streams there
will be built rustic bridge. The sec
ton has always been noted for its fer.
tility.
| As intimated, this land long since al.
tracted the attention OF men desiring u
handle 1t, but 1t seemed impossible
even with limltless capital TO carry out
a deal till Mr.. Desky took hold. He Is
very enthusiastic over the development
OF the place as new and select res,
dence section. The land lies upon tn
left or the Eva side of the banana
plantations and rice and taro patchsi
and with the elevation the view afford
ed Is a desirable feature.

HITS OPINION.
lie Speaks Of Local Residents
as Americans.

Congressional Proceedlngs)
Mr.. Hit said he had nothing to vol
unteer as to the right to serve on the
Hawaiian commission, beyond what
was clearly known. The original res
olution annexing Hawaii called for
commissioners to frame the legislation
necessary 20 complete the work of an
nexation. He had been designated by
the President as one Of the commits
sion; there was no pay attached; the
only duty was to aid Congress In per-
fecting legislation.
In response to a question, Nr. Hit
said he regarded It as strictly legisla-
tive work performed at the request Of
the President, and II was In response
to an express mandate of Congress in
the original resolution annexing Ha-
wall. Mr.. Hit stated in response 20
Inquiries that the Senate had not yet
confirmed the nominations OF himself
and other members OF the Hawaiian
commission.
To inquiries from Democratic mem
bers, Mr.. Hit recalled his appointment
by Speaker Crisp as a member of the
monetary commission.
Mr.. Terry made the point that as
President Dole and Judge Frear OF Ha-
wall were on the commission, II showed
| that the work was not a part OF the
legislative work OF Congress.
Mr.. Hit stated that Messrs. Dole
and Frear were Americans after the
Hawaiian flag was lowered on July 49,
and they served as Americans, not Ha-
| waiians.

PUBLIC SCHOOL DANCING.

Dancing is to be taught in one
of the public schools and the
cult may spread to all the 9TH
ers. This was permitted at
meeting yesterday Of the Board
of Education. Armstrong Smith
who Is to be principal OF the
new school in Palama, made the
application. & II was that he be
permitted to conduct dancing
classes of pupils in the as
sembly room after school hours.
There was an affirmative vote
after a brief and entirely har-
monious discussion. In the
course OF remarks made 1t was
told that after some labor with
the occupants Of the seats OF the
mighty, the principal OF a GER
tain seminary obtained permits
sion to teach dancing to the
young ladies'. Greatly to the
surprise of the principal it was
learned that all OF the misses
were already accomplished
dancers. Not a single one OF
them but what understood the
waltz and two-step and even the
latest dances from the Coast.

a charge of obtaining none under false
pretences from Frederick Dressed TO
whom he sold a lot which he represented
as clear. but which was m~ortgaged. The
amount involved was s2ss.77. Congress-
man DAILY made an effort to have the IN
dictment quashed. but he failed.
Luxtno cried bitterly while on the stand
and told of his money difficulties.
At recess Luxtno and Dressed settled
their many differences in the corridor and
when the case vase allied in the afternoon
Dressed wanted to withdraw his com
plant.

Mr.. Daily said the State was too vigor-
Gus in its prosecution of Luxton-
Mr.. Van Wrinkle drew from Luxton the
admission that a number of similar com
plants were pending and that the State
had given him since last April to settle
matters.
This practice has become so common,
said Mr.. Van Wrinkle, after the jury con-
victed Luxton, but with a recommends
ton of mercy, that the State proposes
to put a check upon it,"
