Delinquent Road Hands.

II appears that many Of the road
hands were listed by their given
names, and a good many Of them
who are reported as delinquent
really are not delinquent because
their receipts give their full
names or initials. The manner of
listing and the manner of receipt
ing give rise to variances il the
names ON the records. And when
the Listed name does not cor.
respond with some receipt, that
name is reported as delinquent.
Total number of road hands
listed for year ending Sept. /,
1905, 3,076; total number of hands
who paid. but were not listed,
$50; grand total, 3,765.
Number of deIlnquents in Dis
Htrict No. /, 305; number Of delin-
|quents in District No. 2, $50;
number of delinquents in District
No. 3. 406; number OF delinquents
in District No. 4, Oil; number of
.delinquents 10 District No. 5, 488;
total number of delinquents, 1890.
The delinquent totals above Civ
en- were made out by Hon. M.
McCullough, who was appointed
by the Board of Supervisors at
its last meeting for this purpose,
and his reports are made strictly
from the records kept by the
Road Commissioner and now in
the Office Of the Chancery Clerk.
1t is doubtless the purpose of
the Board of Supervisors to pro-
ceed to collect these taxes by the
most speedy method. The delin-
quent lists will be turned over to
the justices of the peace of the re-
spective districts in the next ten
days, and it would be wise for all
delinquents to pay this road tax
to the sheriff at once and thus
avoid much expense and loss of
time. q. P. JONES.

Nellie Was a FIGHTER.

Deputy I. A. WilIoughby bad
quite a tussle Wednesday evening
with Nellie Slade, a negro woman
who was sent to the county farm
several weeks ago by Judge f.
Fl. Hoffman for vagrancy, and
who made her escape two days af-
ter being taken to the farm,
Mr.. WilIoughby learned she
was in hiding in Nays quarters
and went down to get her.
Nellie had reasons of her own
for not wanting to be captured,
and when Mr.. Willoughby
reached her, she resolutely sat
down in a chair and said she was
going to stay there, but suddenly
woke up to the situation and went
after Mr.. WilIoughby, hammer
and tongs, scratching and hruis-
ing him on the face and also Bit
ing an ugly place in his hand.
Mr.. WiIIoughby got hold of a
pair Of tongs at last and when they
came il sudden contact with Mel
lies head she was willing to be
taken to Jail.
DR.. Higdon was summoned and
took several stitches in the wound,
and she is now resting easy in the
jail, and has plenty of time to pom
der oyer why 'the way Of the
transgressor is hard. .

Hon. 2. F. Jones, president of

Miller has collected so, 300 in costs

this year.
Mr.. Jones is jealous in his

BIG GUNS PUT IN FIRST.
FORTlFiCATl0N TO START
WITH APPROPRIATION
WHEN WORK is COMPLETE 1000
MEN WILL BE STATIONED
HERE FOR THE BAT
TERlES.


In case the appropriation of S7l5,OOO
for Honolulu's fortification recently
recommended by Secretary of War TAFT
i1 made, work will begin upon the EN-.
placements probably within three
months. Hundreds of workmen of all
kinds will be employed on the job and
the undertaking will be a great thing
for the city. Most of the money Will
circulate here. Hundreds of tons oi
cement, rock, sand and other stuff will
have to be purchased. in addition To-
millions of feet Of lumber.
Several sites for the batteries have
already been purchased as a result OF
visit of board of engineers for for
tiflcations three years ago. About
Sl25,OOO has been expended in securing
land Out of the first appropriation
Of 5000, 600 there still remains $4,000
that is on hand but practically arranged
for expenditure. Originally the plans
for Honolulu's fertilization called for
S5,OOO,OOO.
Four companies of Coast Artillery
will be stationed here after the forti
fications, which the last recommended.
tons call for, are completed. As the
batteries are gradually enlarged until
the full amount Is expended, in the
neighborhood of 5000 men will be quar-.
tered here permanently. This will give
Honolulu a brigadier general. II Is fig.
Ured that the work Secretary Taft fav-
ors accomplished at once will be lin.
ished within year after commenced.
Large batteries with twelve.inch
,,,tI lao To-, Hrut I.t
teries will be placed on the emplaCc-
ments as the work progresses and as
more money Is allowed by the govern
ment for the forts. The idea of the
government engineers is to have the
battries so located between this city
and Pearl Harbor that guns on either
end can be used to protect one port as
well as the other.
In case of war between the United
States and any other nation under the
prevailing conditions II would be nee
essary for the navy department to
send a fleet of battleships here and
have them remain until peace was d.
clared. After the completion of
the Notifications this would not be es.
sential. In terrifying the harbors the
government will equip the Coast Artil.
lery with sufficient means to amply
protect this station.
After the expenditure of $4,000, 900,
which Lieut.. J. l.. Slattery, in charge
of the corps Of engineers here. thinks
Is bound to come within few years,
and in case of war something like H..
900 men would be sent here to man the
big guns and look after the city's well
fare. Lieut.. Sattery is of the opinion
that after the sum of S5.O0O000 is ex.
pended more money will finally be APP
propriated for the purpose Of enlarg.
Ing the Notifications and making Ho-
nolulu's self.protection facilities among
the best in the world. No guns will be
mounted on the hills until the water
front has been provided with emplace-
ments.

Gu '..'......... sss''.'' wv 90
Concerning Honolulu's harbor the
report says: II is formed by coral
reef, a narrow channel through the
reef affording access to the harbor.
The entrance channel and harbor prop.
er were dredged from time to time by
the monarchical, republican and Terri
torial governments of Hawaii prior to
July |, 1904. On this date there exist.
ed an entrance channel having a depth
of about 80 feet and minimum width
of about 200 feet at mean low water.
The harbor proper (that portion COM
mencing at the lighthouse and extend
ing to the mouth of the Nuuanu river)
had general width of 500 feet. The
water for about 200 feet Immediately
along the wharves had depth of from
30 to 80 feet. Elsewhere there was only
about % feet at low water. The bend
at the lighthouse point was so sharp
as to be somewhat difficult for large
vessels to get around. The shallow
water in the harbor made 1t impos-
sible for the largest vessels calling at
the port to enter the harbor when at
all heavily laden. The narrowness OF
the harbor made turning difficult for
all ships.
