passed on final reading by the two
houses tomorrow afternoon
When the conference committee of
the Legislature began business this
morning Senator White moved to re-
consider the item of a road from Homo
kohau to the Wailuku boundary, and
the motion prevailed. For nearly a half
hour there was heated debate in re-
gard to this road, as to where 1t should
go and what the amount should be
Makekau wanted the road to run from
Honokohau to Halenainai. Senator
White, Senator Paris and Chairman
Baldwin contended for the road from
Honokohau to the Waikiki line The
item finally passed at $1,000, the route
and extent of the road being as last
stated.
Molokai road items passed. Item
Kalae to Puuohoku, $1,000, which was
struck out by the Senate, was rein
serted. On a fight by Emmeluth, La
mai was given $1,000 for roads.
Roads for the Fourth district, Oahu
passed at 100000. Emmeluth tried to
cut down the appropriation from $780,
900 to 100000. There was general OPP
position, and although the chair sup
ported Emmeluth, the item passed az
the higher figure.
Extension of School. and Vineyard
streets passed as in the bill There was
strong objection to the item for the ex-
tension of Kukui street, but it passed
on show of hands. Emmeluth oppos-
ed the appropriation for the extension
of Queen street through Iwllei.
Il thought there was no more Iwilei, "
said Chairman Baldwin.
This is a different Iwilel we are talk
ing about" observed Representative
Monsarrat.
The item was stricken out.
Extension Asylum road to Judd
street was reinstated and passed at
$4,000. Crabbe's project to extend Kua-
KIM street to Punchbowl, 100000
passed. Extension of Bates street, in
front of w. o. Smiths house failed.

ton for Punchbowl street and repairs

was given $4,000 for roads after strong
opposition Waianae got $4,000. But
tress to hold on to the road at Koolau
bay passed at $4,000. Emmeluth got
the appropriation Of $4,000 for Koolau
poke, which the Senate had cut down
to $1,000. KoOlauloa was raised from
SO, 900 to $4,000.
Kauai rode in on a streak of luck in
road matters, due to the steady fight
of Senator Nakapaahu and Represen-
tative Puuki. In every single appro-
priation, including the new items. the
highest figures proposed in either house
were adopted. This was done in tn,
face of attempts Of White and Others
to make cuts.

with thousand merry stories, for the
sake of listening to which the shepherd
would sometimes forget his darling pipes
for half a day. At last the dwarf invited
the shepherd to PAL ty at which he prom
ised him great deal of pleasure. ''knight

put it on your head nobody will be able
to see you, though you see everything
that is going on around YOU. Try it,

/ Jacob took the wonderful cap from the
/ dwarf, and made an attempt to try its
virtue even before he reached his hut.
Wen, the sheep came running against

find him out when he called them by
name with the cap on his head. He now
gave himself implicitly up to the direc-
ton of the dwarf.
The day afterwards Jacob and the
dwarf set out with their caps on their
heads, and two empty wallets under their
arms, to the castle of the knight. Dur
ing the bridal ceremony they pl ced
themselves upon the large round table
around which the bridegroom and bride
and the principal guests were to sit. The
dwarf then instructed the uttering shep

all took the places which were pointed
out to them according TO their severa
dignities, little suspecting the presence

SOME PRETTY WHITE SHIRT WAISTS.
White shirt waists are coming more in
vogue as the months go by and their
trimmings are becoming subject of
much interest.
\ very neat looking shirt waist is made
of white French flannel with gilt braid
for trimming. The braid is simply pug
lengthWise of the waist between sets of
Tuckiugs, each set having two or three
tucks. Much beauty is added by placing
small loops at equal distances along the
length of the braid or By giving it a wavy
effect
Another pretty waist has its front set
of in squares by running the braid across
diagonally. The back is plain, and the
sleeves are cut full at the bottom and
trimmed with braid to correspond with
the waist front.
\ very pretty effect can be obtained by
running the braid in scroll form over
all OF part of the front, and the lower
part of the sleeves. In case this effect is
used the belt should also have Its share
of gilt braid in scroll form.
Brass buttons have been much used
for trimming white shirt waists, but Their
place is being taken by buttons of IA
bronze shade, which are even prettier
than the brass ones. These buttons are
generally arranged in groups of three or
four set between rows of tucks or on
box plaits.
