AsHMUN STREET PAVEMENT.
Assessment of Fifty Cents Per Foot


Assessment of Fifty Cents Per Foot
Recommended by the Committee.
The committee on the matter of as
sessment of benefits for the Ashmun
street pavement held a meeting last
night. The session was executive and
recommendation was drawn up to pre-
sent to the common council. The bu-
reau of compensation had recommend
ed that the property owners on Ashmun
street be assessed fifty cents per front
foot for the pavement. This recon-
mendatlon was referred to the committee.
The brick pavement on Ashmun street, be-
tween Gregory and Henry streets, was laid
in 1894 and at that time the law provided
of 1924 IL per front foot The payment
of the assessment was delayed until after
the pavement act was amended In 1889 to
provide that the assessment for brick pave
ment should be fifty cents per front foot.
Then the property owners on Ashmun
street, between Gregory and Henry streets,
set on foot a movement to have their as
sessment scaled down to that rate. The
committee last night decided to recommend
that the difference between $2.24 IL and
fifty cents be abated and that the property
owners between Gregory and Henry streets
be assessed fifty cents per front foot. 1t
was also decided to recommend that the
property owners on the remainder of the
street where a brick pavement Is laid be as
sessed fifty cents per foot. The abatement
is recommended If the assessments are paid
by July next.

IMMIGRANTS

NEW YORK, Nov 23.-In deciding the
case of Thomas Boden, the courts will
rule whether or not man suffering from
tuberculosis can be excluded from this
country. This is the first case in which
the constitutionality of the Treasury rul-
ing that consumptives shall be prevented
from landing as immigrants, will be pass
ed upon By the courts. Thomas +. Boden

a steerage passenger of the Cunard line
steamer Lucania. His wife and child
We're with him. He has relatives who
live in Philadelphia. They were able to
guarantee that he would not become "a
public charge and he had means of his
own.
The authorities at Ellis Island We're sat
isfied on that score, but they declined to
admit him because examination by ply
sicians of the Marine Hospital Corps
showed he had tuberculosis of the lungs.
] He appealed to the Treasury Depart
ment, and "A re-eXamination was ordered.
| The Treasury Department ordered that
Boden be sent back on the next Cunard
line steamer, the Etruria, which sails to-
day. Francis Tobin, lawyer from Phil
adelphia, has obtained a writ of habeas S
| corpus until the act of Congress under
which 1t is proposed to exclude Mr.. Bo-
| of persons suffering from "A loathsome
or a dangerous disease" can be tested in
| the courts. Mr.. Boden claims that the
majority of physicians do not regard

The Rev. Mr.. Emerson of Honolulu,
who is holding special services at Wainee

ated from Williams College at Williams
town, Mass, in the class of '6S. On re-
turning to the Islands, he soon became

able to preach without difficulty, in one
of the native churches. In conversation
he uses the Hawaiian and English with
equal facility, but prefers the latter
