ROAD TO
NEW WHARF
One Will Be Built At
Once.
LAND TO Be CONDEMNED
Channel Wharf Will Soon Be Of
Some Use--Plans For Fire
Station in Palama.

Steps will be taken at once by the
Government to construct a road to the
Channel or Quarantine wharf so that
that structure may be made of some
practical use to the city. At the meet
ing yesterday of the Governor and the
heads of departments plans for the
new road were discussed at length.
The Bishop Estate which owns the
land adjoining the wharf over which the
road must pass had submitted to Su-
perintendent McCandless a plan for a
road which was unsatisfactory accord
ing to the report he presented to the
council. He suggested that the Govern
n.ent take immediate steps for the con-
demnation of the necessary land. The
matter was referred to Attorney Gen
eral Dole with request that he begin
condemnation proceedings as soon as
possible.
The plans and specifications for the
fire station at Palama were also pre-
scented to the Council and were approx
ed. They provide for a two-story fire
proof building where one engine and
hose cart will be housed. The appro-
priation was made some time ago for
this station but owing to the lack of
funds in the Treasury it is likely that
it will be some time before the building
can be begun.
Mr.. McCandless also reported con-
corning his trip to Hawaii with Mr.
Rowell. He stated that the trip had
given him a good comprehensive idea
of what was needed in the way of pub
lie improvements on the Island of Ha-
wall and he should be in position to
know where money could be spent to
the best advantage as soon as there
was money in the Treasury to spend.
Many improvements were needed on
Hawaii he stated, some of them urgent
ly needed, and as fast as the money was
available it would be expended to i'm
prove the roads and other public works.
]. F. Brown, Commissioner of Public
Lands, propounded a couple of queries
on land laws. He wanted information
as to whether a man who had the right
of purchase of one lease could take an
other on similar terms, and the opinion
Of the members of the Council was that
he could. He also asked under what
circumstances tenancy at will could
be created in government lands and the
opinion of the Council was that it
would have to be done in the ordinary
method, that is that the would-be ten
ant must secure his right of tenancy
/ by purchase at public auction.
/ S. X. Kane applied for a lease of
taro lands at Waikele, Eva. H. NJ.
| Sewall requested that a tract of land
adjoining his property at Diamond
Head be put up at public auction. He
desires the property to add to the build
| ing site he already possesses at that
| point.

BRANDED AS
A DESERTER
Private Dukeman Of the
Fist Regiment in
the Tolls.

Private Dukeman of the First United
States Infantry yesterday forenoon
came into the police station and sur
rendered himself to the authorities af-
ter making sure that the transport
Logan had sailed away for Manila. The
soldier was dressed in civilian clothes
and with this evidence against him,
Officer Hanrahan booked the man as a
deserter from the United States Army,
and notified the military authorities at
Camp Mckinley.
Dukeman was a sorry sight when he
entered the portals of the station. He
was tired, sleepy and hungry, and evil
IDENTIFY anxious to be taken in hand by
any one who would give him something
to eat. From the story he related to
Officer Hanrahan it developed that he
was heartily tired of army service and
had no desire to go to Manila and
fight his countrys battles in guerrilla
warfare. He preferred to desert and
carry the shame upon his head rather
than go to the seat of war. The stigma
of the deserter attached to his name
was to him not near as fearful as the
thought of facing the muzzles of Fill
pino rifles. On Tuesday he left his ship
and comrades of the regiment and fed
to the mountains-just where he has no
exact knowledge-but it was some
where in the hills. He met some ma
tives and induced one of them to
change clothes with him. A native en-
joys the novelty of wearing a khaki
suit and the change was soon accom-
plished. By this one act Dukeman
branded himself n deserter in time of
war, but happily for him, not in the
| face of the enemy. Had it been so his
fate would not be long held in the ball
ance.
Yesterday morning after satisfying
| himself that the great white transport
was but a speck upon the horizon he
came into town. He had not cent of
money in his clothes and hunger drove
him at once into the arms of the law.
Thus his freedom as a citizen of the
United States was of short duration,
and there is a possibility of Alcatraz
rock in the harbor of San Francisco
being his home for a few years.
The deserter is a native of Philadel-
phia and was a coachman before en-
tering Uncle Sans service. How he
intended to reach the States after leav-
ing his regiment was not apparent to
himself. His first object was to get
away from the ship and gain freedom.
II was short lived.

Frazer's Horse Runs Amuck.

Something like berserk rage sud
denly seized the horse belonging to VIII
liam l.. Frazee of the Government Elec-
trio Light Works yesterday afternoon.
The animal was tied to the hitching
rail in front of the Kapuaiwa building
in the Judiciary yards and was stand
ing peacefully meditating with head
hung low when suddenly a frenzy
seemed to come upon him and he threw
off the hitching rope and made a dash
for the open. a big palm tree was un-
fortunately in the way and of this the
rubber tired carriage he was attached
to ran afoul. With one frantic bound
tHc horse tore himself loose from the
carriage leaving it a sorry wreck be-
hind and made for the Capitol grounds.
At the gates ne jumped on the slippery
new pavement and skated along it for
few feet until gravity asserted itself
and he went over on his side heavily,
straining and skinning one leg. Then
sobered and in his right mind once
more, he limped to the hitching rail at
the Capitol building and stood there
meekly until his master who was inside
came out and fastened him. Mr.. Frazee
spent the rest of the afternoon ruefully
surveying the wreck of the fine car
rage and examining the bruises on the
horses legs.

But science quite calmly that myth"

From a saurian old, whose scales

And he, too, mo doubt" for fore

Some four-legged chump in whose

Till in the beginning foundation was

And life was struck out of pure proto-

POLITICAL CHEEK.

Did anybody say "cheek?" Was there
remark about "a brass countenance?"
To assert that the union, republican
party is and that the regular republic
can party is not the legitimate and
real republican party requires a face
with brass enough in it to make fat
cheeks for the sphinx. The National
Republican Convention is the only
body that can determine which set of
delegates from any state-if there is a
contest-represents the legitimate re-
publican party of the state. In the
case Of Delaware the National Republl-
can Convention found that the regular
and not the union organization was the
legitimate party organization in the
state.
The Sun says: "The national con-
Yention has no authority to settle any
question relative to state politics II
is not an authority in this case"
II that is the fact, why did the unior
party ask the national convention fol
recognition at st. Louis? Why does n
now declare its purpose to ask for suct

gress have concluded that Porto Rico
can raise revenue very much easier
by a small tariff rate than by direct
taxation. Now that is all there is to
the tariff question, and the "avarlcious
trusts" which our correspondent is so
much troubled over need not be taken
into consideration at all. rs it not the
wish Of the avaricious trusts to secure
greater protectlon?" he asks, and the
absurdity of his proposition never
strikes him. How can they possibly
secure greater protection if the Ding
ley bin is to be cut down to Is per
cent? AS a matter Of fact, the trusts,
having purchased all the sugar and cof-
fee in sight. are simply waiting for this
tariff bill TO be settled, and il they se-
cure free trade their profits will be
worth having. So those who are fight
ing trusts and at he same time are ad-
vocating free trade are really doing a
service to the very trusts they detest.

A Successful lIuntress

A noticeable feature of this seasons
hunting is the large number of women
who have come into the Maine woods
from Massachusetts and other states
to kill a deer It is estimated that
about $50 deer have been taken
through Bangor which had been shot
by women. Guides say that many of
the women hunters are really good
shots, and can stand the fatigue of a
days hunting as well as the majority
OF men. The guides further say that.
contrary to the opinion sometimes ex.
pressed by Maine hunters, in almost
every case these women actually
bring down their own deer. This is
the first season that women have
come into the state in any great mum.

topping, caresses him, then resumes
it till he repeats the bow. He is again

that II would be we'll to try a change
II only to see If better progress cannot

an inherited great name in his once

cisely the way that the mugwump and
copperhead papers snarled at Lincoln
for not removing and degrading Grant
when he was annihilating the Confed-
crate armies in the West. In what has
there been failure in the Philippines?
Otis has had the command and he has
commanded well. The results are de-
cided and great. The Tagal armies
have been wiped off the face of the

the Tagal Congress, government or ar
mics. There are now only squads of
