The matter of erecting posts and
placing upon them signs indicating
the limits of this city will be agitated
soon. 1t has been suggested that signs
be placed OH all streets leading to

the corporation line closes. This will
aid police officers to determine how far
their jurisdiction extends.

Boiler Accident During the Fire

Boiler Accident During the Fire
Yesterday. ~
The fire department is in hard luck
with its engines. Following the serious
accident to No. 1 at the Chinatown
fire, the firemen were yesterday de-
prived of the services of another en-
CINE for a few days at least. No. 2
while running at top speed at about
noon yesterday suddenly blew up, and
had to retire from the scene. The
damage is not at all serious, as all that
can be seen of the injury is a hole In
the boiler through which a man might
thrust his closed hand, and a patch will
place the machine in good condition
again.
No. 2 is one of the oldest engines
in the city, and although the actual
number of days in which it has been
under steam, is not abnormal, it is
inferred that the water with which it
had been kept filled for the best part
of the twelve years of its existence,
had SO corroded and weakened the iron,
that the boiler was unable to meet the
heavy demands made upon it recently
1t is most fortunate that no one was
injured by the accident, the fireman
happily being in the act of opening the
fire door at the time, and the engineer
at his post out of the way.
The damaged engine was immediate.

The antics of large cinnamon bear
attracted large crowds to the vacant
allotment opposite the central fire sta
ton early yesterday afternoon. The
animal, which came down from the
Coast by the last Alameda, is one Of
the best-trained animals on exhioi-
ton, and his clumsy movements proved
source of immense delight to the
crowd. The bear is fully developed
large specimen of his breed and is kent
well under control by his keeper. The
announcement that he would give an
imitation of the genuine hula provoked
considerable merriment and the own
er received goodly supply of silver
during the exhibition.

Never was news more welcome, and
the only prayer heard is that the
plague is finally stayed and that at
last the end has come.
Sympathy with the sufferers from
the big fire in Honolulu took practi-
cal shape in this community. Two
large baskets of new clothing were
sent by the Claudine on Saturday for
distribution to those in need. The ma
terial was gift from the Hawaiian
Commercial & Sugar Co.'s store at
Kahului. The making-up was done by
the ladies of Spreckelsville under the
leadership of Mrs. w. J. Lowrie. If
necessary there will be further contri-
buttons from the same source.
Maui has not been entirely overlook
ed by the sensation-monger, during
the recent anxious time; and there
was one especially idiotic rumor start
ed in connection with Hama. But on
the whole the people generally have
kept their heads remarkably we'll. With
the exception of some few hotheads,
who were the advocates of extreme
methods, the community has had abii-
ing faith in the central Board of
Health at Honolulu; and declined to
be persuaded that any precautions
would be neglected by that body which
in their judgment, would be necessary
to avoid the spread of the pest to the
other Islands.

sion traffic on the Oahu Railroad, will
scarcely credit that here Sunday rail

there will be some who will make
bad use of it, but on the whole the com

quantity Of mustard seeds. Reduce all
to proper thickness with sweet wine

be boiled In aniseed water"
i The second recipe shows the same
queer mixture Of ingredients: "Take
a wheelbarrow of rose leaves and
