The Council of State will meet this
afternoon at o'clock.
Prominent citizens estimate that the
value of the property destroyed by fire
in Chinatown is fully 100000.
The withdrawal OF the buses from
the Nuuanu valley route, while they

the travel to cad from town, especially
at night.

Joe Marsden's WAY,

One of the best inspectors in the field
is the incompatible Joe Marsden. His
CHEEKY Bon jour, Mademoiselle" is
heard in every household on his beat
where there is any one to inspire it.
The greeting is especially cheerful
where the recipient is young and
pretty. They say that Joseph is so
thorough that every lady visited has to
submit to an inspection of her pulse.
Sometimes when he misses the count
he takes three or four minutes. In
eases Of special exigency, where the
patient has red cheeks and brilliant
eyes, sure signs of fever, Joe stays to
take the temperature and put cool
cloths on the forehead. There are
places where JOe's visits are the only
bright spots in the day. the one regret
being that the pOrtly inspector cannot
always make himself clear in English,
his recent European tour having play
e.. the mischief with his mother
tongue.

Speaker Reed wished to see a man
on some pending legislation, and tele-
graphed for him to come to Washing
ton. The man took the first train
available; but a washout on the road
made It impossible for the train to pro-
coed further toward its destination.
Going a telegraph station, he sent this
despatch to the Speaker: "Washout on
line. Can't come. The operator who
received the massage wrote it wash
out on the line" When Reed read
tie message, he sent back this reply,
Buy a new shirt, and come anyway"
