NEW HONOLULU ROADS
JUDD STREET EXTENSION
TEMPORARILY BLOCKED
Contractor Belser Will Have Diamond
Head Drive Finished Month
Ahead Of Contract
Time Limit.

Road Engineer r. +. Boyd has had
plans completed since the first Of the
month for the So foot road extending
Judd street to connect with the asylum
road leading into King street. When
this road is made, 1t will finish the cir
cult Of beautiful drive at an eleva-
ton commanding view Of the city
and harbor. The chief advantages Of
the new road accrue to the owners of
property on either side. A large area
Of very desirable property will be then
connected with the Honolulu boulevard
system. The Public Works Depart
ment will find its operations in the up
per Nuuanu neighborhood greatly
facilitated. as well. The road, when
macadamlzed, will afford an easy out
let and short haul for street material
from the asylum road crusher. At
present 1t is a long way round from the
asylum crusher to upper Nuuanu.
The extension will be over 1850 feet
In length. The engineer has all plans
with details Of cuts ard fills, drawn
ready for the contractor. The only
obstacle now In the way of this i'm
provement. Is the refusal of a few
property owners to make concessions
as to right Of way. The majority OF
the owners see the benefits that will
come from a good roadway at this
point. Those who are Holding back are
Hawaiians. The largest owners are
ready and anxious for the road to be
opened.
J. J. Belser, the contractor who Is
building the Diamond Head road, has
until September, by the terms of his
contract to finish the job, He an
nounces that he will have the road
completed by the first OF August, Mr..
Relser began work on this road jan
uary !. When completed 1t will have
cost the Territory sl7,5OO. The length
Of the Diamond Head drive is little
more than three miles. The contractor
has made good job of it according 10
Road Supervisor Lloyd.

months. had read great many state
ments of residents of Amcsbury who pos.
itively declared that Doan's Kidney Pills
had cured them of backache and other
symptoms of kidney complaint. This led
me to make some inquiries, and as a re-
suit Mrs. Smith took thorough course
of the treatment. 1t cured her. It is SC
long ago that I am confident the result:

The Fan Saves Talking In Japan.
There are many curious uses for fans
in Japan. The umpire ut wrestling and
fencing matches uses heavy one
shaped like huge butterfly, the handle
being the body and rendered imposing
by heavy cords Of silk. The various
motions Of the fan constitute q Ian
guage which the wrestlers fully under
stand and appreciate. Formerly IN
time Of war the japanese commander
used large fan, having a frame OF
iron covered with thick paper. In case
of danger it could be shut. and bio"
from it's iron bones was no light affair
One notable variety Of fan Is made OF
waterproof paper, which can be dipped
In water and creates great GOODNESS by
evaporation without wetting the
clothes.
The fat fan made of rough paper II
often used as a grain winnow, to bio"

SWAN pIvlNo.

Among the Swedes the graceful art OF
diving, in its most daring and scientific
forms, is cultivated to degree that no
other nation can equal. The Swedish
boys and girls are taught when young TO
overcome their natural instinct OF fear
when entering the water, and to practice
all manner of difficult feats, and the re-
suit is that even among the primitive
races, such as the Hawaiians, whose
wonderful diving holds the man who
cannot swim in boundless awe and ad-
miration, there are few who can attain
such standard of the art as may be
found throughout Sweden.
To a Swede diving means not only
plunging into the water headforemost,
but also springing backward, turning
somersets and "swan' diving from 70,
80 or 40 feet.
Swan diving is peculiar to Sweden. 1t
ia the very poetry of motion, the SUI
preme glory OF the art: with stana-
ing spring, or with brief run, the body
is launched into the air. At the same
moment the head is flung far back, the
back is sharply followed, the legs are
Strengthened and brought together: The
arms are flung out in line with the
shoulders, like the wings of bird n.y.
ing. In this position the body swoops
through the air until within few feet
of the water, when the arms are swung
together until the hands touch, 80 that
the body strikes the water like falling
arrow, at the correct angle, with hardly
a splash.
There is no more fascinating dive to
watch than this swan dive of the Swedes.
One after the other, follow-my-leader
style, the Swedes run to the edge OF the
diving place and throw themselves into
the air, the impetus gained from the
running spring sending the body 20 or
30 feet forward, to drop through the air
for all the world as though it were fly
ing.
I'm Sweden it is no uncommon sight to
see party of boys flying through the
air together performing the swallow
dive. All day long they will enjoy
themselves practicing these fancy forms
of diving, performing tricks and somer'
sets that would astonish the most ex-
pert gymnast. The women become as
fearless as the men in the backward and
forward somerst dive from compare,
lively great nights, and are even more
graceful in their Observation-Disclosures
