PART I,
LIGHT MUCH NEEDED

Editor Advertiser: L note in your re-
port of Tuesday evenings meeting of
the Board Of Supervisors that the
county officials have decided to estab-
lish number of new street lights in
the dark portions of Honolulu.
Sometime ago petition was sent in
by property owners of the locality
praying for an arc light at the corner
of Queen and Richards streets. Among
the signers were Cation. Nein & Co,
the Sailors Home and other property
owners there.
As Is Well known both streets are
Very dark and dangerous at night
Nothing came of the petition.
What is required at corner Indicated
is an arc light, Illuminating the four
approaches TO it and operated at gov
eminent expense.
| need not remind you. perhaps that
richards street is frequently thronged
with people on occasions Of the pres
ence Of war vessels and transports in
the harhor. That street is. in fact. the
main thoroughfare 10 and from the
naval Wharves. and proper lighting Of
it is Of the utmost Importance to naval
and military people as well as their
friends ashore who have occasion to
attend receptions and the like aboard
ship at night
Although small matter this is
highly important to many people. and
it is TO be hoped that the light will
be included in the proposed schedule.

the resulting mix-up Tucker put a heavy
left 10 the stomach. making the Harlem
boy vince. In the clinches Murphy landed
light uppercuts to the chin that did not

round was a repetition OF the first
After several mikes in the third. dur
ing which Tucker put Murphy through
the ropes the Harlem boy landed a left
and a right swing on Chicks jaw that
staggered him. Murphy followed up his
advantage by landing a hard right to
fuckers jaw and Chick staggered across
the ring. From then on there was no let
up on Murphy's part. and he followed his
man about the ring. landing lefts and
rights with great rapidity and regularity.
