Capital Iron Works Danlaged-An
Automobile Destroyed.

The casting room of the Capital
iron works, at Seventh and Adams
street. was badly damaged by fire last
night at 10:45. The casting room is
a frame and stone structure and the
roof was largely destroyed. The com
kept the fire confined to tn ecasting
room, where it is supposed to have
started from the cupola. the furnace
where the iron is melted preparatory
to casting. The casting gang had
drawn the fire from the cupola last
night just before the closing of the
works, and it is thought that in this
process some of the coke was dropped
and left smouldering. The loss has
not yet been fixed, though It is be-
lieved to be fully covered by insur-
ance. Brooks & Brooks are the pro-
prietors of the works.
A $500 automobile belonging to A.
f. Officer, OF 1915 Polk street. was de-
stroyed by fire at shortly after 6
sumed the barn in which the auto
mobile was destroyed. The insurance
of 500 on the barn VIII about cover
the loss on the building. Insurance
of about $500 was carried on the au-
tomobile. The only gasoline in the
barn was stored in a tank of the au-
tomobile; there was no gasoline. stored
in the barn. The fire started from
some unknown source.
A one and one-half story barn at
3O53 Union avenue, outside of the fire
hydrant service. was burned to the
ground at shortly after Z o'clock this
morning The barn was beyond hope
of saving before the fire department
could complete the long run to the
scene of the fire. The barn was
owned by Mrs. J. W. Gallery. and the
loss will amount to about $3.50. The
source of the fire is unknown.

in commercial sugar or go polarization
is 26O5S tons. The 1866 crop is about
100 acres larger in acreage, but will
fall slightly behind last years average
on account of the aforementioned un-
favorable weather and poorer juice.
My estimate for this crop is at the pre-
sent time 10000 tons, but if the juice i'm
proves, as in former years, my estimate
may be exceeded.
THE coming crops will all have the
same acreage, about 1900 acres, and
should, therefore providing conditions
are equally favorable, give the same
results. l consider $4,000 tons a fair
average yield. The winter months have
so far been mild and is in every respect
favorable to the growth of the young
cane for 1867. The prospects for this
crop are very promising.
Improvements: 1t has been decided
by the Directors of your company to
convert the steam pumping plants of
Lahaina into electric ones, operated by
water power. There is ample power
for this purpose in the Kapaula valley
and the saving in coal, labor, etc, will
pay for the outlay in less than two
years time.
with permission of the directors
have taken six months leave during
the summer months and left c. L.
Scrimger in full charge. 1 wish to
mention here that during my absence
the affairs of the company have
been conducted in most able and eff
! fcient manner"
The total operating expenses for the

Teachers.

Three hundred and fifty-nine out Of
4S5 teachers receive less than $40 90 a
month. over 81 per cent receive less
than $4,000 a month. over % per cent
receive less than $4,000 a month More
than 10 per cent receive less than $4,000
month.
THAT we can get teachers at all I'M
der these conditions seems to me re-
markable, and that teachers are will
ing to put in the energy and effort they
do under these conditions Is still more
remarkable, and only the absolute need
of more teachers to properly operate
more schools would make the follow
ing suggestion in any way pardonable.
1.-THE suggestion is that the force of
janitors in Honolulu schools be in some
cases greatly reduced and IN other
cases entirely cut off. The plan I
herewith submit is that one ianitor
each be left Kaahumanu, Kaiulani.
