PROTECT FROM FIRES
WOULD ERECT TANKS
IN BUSINESS DISTRICT
Utilize Sea Water Having it In
Readiness When City is
Confronted by a Big
Blaze.

The statement of Fire Commissioner
Brown calling attention to the possible
exhaustion of the water supply in case
Of a series of fires has attracted the at
tention of the business community to
the subject. The suggestion was made
by r. +. Davidson OF John Emmeluth
& Co. that some scheme should be de-
vised to draw on the large supply OF
salt water, afforded by the Pacific
ocean. He favors the erection OF three
or four derricks with ample storage
tanks, in as many places in the down
town business district.
"The superiority of salt water as a
IRE quencher over fresh water Is gen.
orally conceded. The question Of erect
ing these tanks Is not one OF expense"
said Mr.. Davidson. lit is one of utility.
Our present water supply Is limited.
We never will have an adequate sup
ply for fire purposes without drawing
on salt water. All seaboard cities have
their fire boats and other facilities for
drawing on the waters of the bay. This
city should not ignore this subject un-
I'll after a disastrous fire which would
more than thousand times pay for
the facilities suggest. The lower
parts of the business district might be
as well protected by digging deep els
terms as by erecting derricks. A pipe
below tide level could he laid to the
sea and the outbreak " fire would be
the signal for opening the flood gates
Of the ocean. Suction pumps and en-
sines could utilize water from the I'M
derground reservoir as well as from
elevated tanks
what Honolulu wants is an mex
haustibe water supply with which to
fight fire. ! submit that the sea affords
the only solution of this OBVIOUS need. =

Two gentlemen coming down Hack

quarry that borders the street near the
Hackfeld residence. The incident turn

through good luck than special care
taken to protect the street from a
closely adjoining pitfall.
AS these gentlemen were sauntering
down the street to take the morning
car their attention was called to the
Hackfeld premises by an UNUSUAL rack
ct inside the ground. Excited shouts
coupled with the noise Of apparently a
whole caravan Of drays woke the
echoes. No time was given for investi-

soon appeared. Two husky mules shot
through the gate. The animals were
attached to a sort of furniture van.
On the drivers seat were two darkies
and another citizen whose nationality

headed straight for the quarry and 4

depths. A smash up seemed inevitable.
Just as the wagon approached the
edge OF the abyss the drivers, still
bowling, unloaded themselves indii-
criminately. They gave no studied at.
tention to the order Of their departure
Head over heels they left the seat
Double sommersaults were performed
and an indiscriminate combination Of
gyrating aims and legs filed their i'm

at the very brink Of the quarry. Th'

Finally the wheels were tied and tn
