corner of Fort and King streets, and

ters by the middle of March next year.
The new building win be three stories

The structure viii be built of iron and
brick, with a facing of plaster. 1t will
be as nearly fire proof as possible, the
pillars being of iron and the finish OF
cement laid upon expanded iron lath-

was finished to a great extent in wood
work.
The first floor front will be finished
with square windows, the iron pillars

A NEW BUG PEST APPEARS
IN THE HAWAIIAN ISLES

~ AWAITS latest insect pest is the
ea-wig. Numbers of this inter-
esting insect have been observed
INpf late by residents of Honolulu, and
much curiosity has been evinced by the
uninitiated as to what manner of crea-
ture it might be.
The earwig depicted herewith, was
obtained yesterday from the interior
of an apple in which was found Il
small grub, doubtless the attraction
which caused the insect to penetrate
the fruit
Professor koebeIe's attention has
been called to the recent prevalence of
earwigs, but at present he is undecid-
red as to whether the local species are
tQ'~be considered as q pest OF a bless
ing.
The insect belongs to the family For
ficula. About eight different species are
found in Hawaii, having been miro
duced from other countries. One or
two of the species found here are pred
atory in their habits. preying upon the
larvae of other insects.
The term earwig conveys an err
roneouS impression. Formerly the in
sect was supposed to secrete itself in
the human ear, to which supposition
it's name is attributable. The earwig
doubtless obtained its unpleasant rep
utatiOn from its habit of always en-
deaVoring to reach the innermost re-
cess of any cavity which it enters.
Probably instances have occurred
where the insect has hidden itself in
the ear of a person sleeping in the
open air. The popular exaggerated
idea of the strength and attributes of
the oval fOrceps peculiar to these in

is something of which / was very sorry
to hear, and which was of course en-
tirefy unexpected.
The condition of the army in the
islands is very good. The men are IN
good shape and the garrisons are wei!
cared for and in good health. Every
one &eemed to be OF this opinion and
our inxastif-a lions indicated that there
was little which could be done to bet
ter the conditions for the soldiers. The
service of the transports is as good as
it can be. ana the ships are in excellent
condition for the service. There seems
to be a good service between the ports
of despatch and also between the ISL
ands.
In China and Japan, where 1 met
many men who had observed the SOL
diers Of the United States, found that
there were only good words for them,
as to their appearance. equipment and
aci ion. In fact they made an excellent
impression upon every one who observ-
ell thcm.
Il have not heard officially about the
course which will be followed by the
transports from San Francisco, in the
matter of passing by Honolulu, but 1
expect that this will be done. The
smaller vessels, and those carrying sup
plies for this port viii come here. but

General KahIbahrs Who Subjugated
Manchuria on His Way to St
Petersburg to Report.

A- general who commanded the
troops of the Czar in Manchu-

the Russians to drive the Chinese into
the Amur river by the thousands, is a
passenger on the Peking, en- route to st.
Petersburg, via the United States He
will report the result of the operations
of his armies to the Car. Press re-
ports of two or three months since were
to the effect that the Gear had caused
the recall of the general who command
ed the Manchuria division, to explain
why he drove the Chinese to miserable
death in the great river.
1t was stated that the famous order
which was interpreted in Manchuria to
read: Drive the Chinese into the
Amur,,s, in reality read: Drive the
Chinese across the Amur," and that
when the terrible news of the affair
reached the Cars ears he was much
displeased. The general gives no in
tlmation that he is on his way to St.
Petersburg to make any explanation to
this effect.
General Kahlbahrs said last evening
that he had completed the subjugation
of the great Chinese province, placed it
under the domination of the Russians,
and that Chinese opposition was for
ever at an end there The general, who
is now well along in life, looks the mill

- EFORE the close of the month
work win be under way on
~ two extensions of the Rapid
Transit companys line The
pleted about the first of the new year,
and will then give to the company
trackage from the Fertilizer works at
Kalihi, to the corner of King and Nc
Gully streets in Pawaa. This means an
addition of some two and one-haf miles
TO the present working lines.
The contracts for these extensions
were decided upon at the meeting of
the directors of the company yesterday
afternoon at the offices of the corpora
ton. For the Kalihi line, which ex-
tends from the junction of King and
Liliha streets to the Fertilizer works,
straight down King street, j. S. Makee
was found to be the lowest bidder, he
having bid $16,o2S.5O for the construc-
tion of the one and nine-tenths miles
of the road. The board decided to ac-
cept his bid, subject to the execution of
a satisfactory bond and contract.
The second line is shorter one, being
some 5000 feet in length, and extend
ing from the present terminus at
Wilder avenue and Alexander street,
down that thoroughfare and out to a
terminus at the corner of King and
McCul1y streets. The bid of Ashley and
Paris, for the completion of this road,
was $1,000, and the decision of the board
was to award TO that firm the contract
for the construction upon the same
conditions as obtain in regard to the
longer line.
In connection with the McCully tract
contract there was q further condition
that in consideration there should be
granted to the Rapid Transit company,
a right of way down McCully street
from King street to the Waikiki Road,
and that further the agents should
grade McCully street upon thirty days
notice by the company of it's intention
10 use the right of way. This guar
antees to the road an opening TO the
Waikiki Road at the smallest possible
expense. when it is decided to make the
extension to the beach.

HEARING OF HELL
A WOMAN FAINTS

The word picture of hell which Father
Boarman, the Jesuit, painted of the ter
rors which await the doomed mortais
who to receive eternal punishment
for their sins. was so vividly drawn last
night during the course of his lecture
that Il woman in the audience swooned
away. In one of the most powerful lee
lures the eloquent priest has yet deliv-
cred in Honolulu, the punishments and
associations which the Catholics believe
await a sinner in hell, were portrayed in
a manner which caused deep hush to
faH upon the audience. The priest care
fully carried the auditors along from the
time when persons on earth committed
sins against which they were warned
and then carried the scene to the hell
he spoke of where he depicted the hor-
rors which come from eternal asSocla-
tions with those whom one would loathe
in life. 1t was during this portion of his
lecture that the woman tainted and cauS-
ed a commotion.
The priests lecture was on the Ques-
tion OF whether or not there is he'll.
He affirmed that there was, and gave
his reasons which are adduced from the
Catholic standpoint to prove that Christ

would find eternal punishment in hell.
