Dear Sir: Atlantic City Is contem-

cities, which have undertaken similar
work in connection with improvement
and beautifying their public places and
public buildings or their park systems.
I am informed that Honolulu has
planned and undertaken some work of
this kind and write to ask you wheth-
er the results thus far have been en-
bodied in printed form OF which
could obtain a copy.
I should greatly appreciate the favor
of reply from you. / am,
Very truly yours,

PETITIONS.
4 petition was read from Go voters
and taxpayers at Iwilei and Waiaka-
milo Camp, Kalihi, asking that a pub
lie road and highway be laid out and
constructed without delay, beginning at
the southern corner of the Honolulu
gas works, to and connecting with the
road mauka of the Sisters
School of Leper Children. This road
would connect with Puuhale district
and Iwilei. The matter was referred
to the proper authorities.
Another petition was read from vot'
ers and taxpayers at Waiakamilo, ask
ing that the streets known as DR..
Days avenue and McVeghs avenue
at Waiakamilo be filed and macad-
amized as soon as possible.
The petitioners also asked for suf-
fcient number of electric lights to be
extended from the government stables
at Palama to Waiakamilo Camp. At
the present time this place at night is
perilous, dark and dangerous to pass
ersby and kamaainas.
f.. S. Dodge said that the streets
mentioned in the petition as needing
were Bishop Estate
and therefore not within the
jurisdiction of the county. The estate
would. nevertheless, be willing to help
out in the matter of macadam.
