Work-Pumps Make Headway.

The work of excayating for the
foundations of the big Alexander
Young building on King street. and
the laying of the concrete seems 10
be prevailing attraction these days.
The work OF blasting the massive
banks of coral is moving on apace.
In this the excayators have in several
instances reached such depth that
quite a heavy seepage of water has
been tapped. presenting a new obsta
Gle. Two gasoline pumps have been
installed and are working day and
night TO reduce the volume of wate-
The mixing and moulding the con-
crete foundation is being rapidly
pushed to completion. The King street
side of the wall is now laid, while a
greater portion of the Waikiki side
of the excavation from King to Hotel
street is walled up.
With the noise of exhaust from sew
eral fussy little gasoline engines. and
the general tumult produced by an
army of Oriental as we'll as white ia
borers, the scene of building opera
tons presents an animated and inter
esting picture.
