Retrenchment was the watchword
at the meeting of the Board Of Super
visors last night and preparations
were made to slash right and left ana
to spare no department. Moore had
discovered that the Board would have
about $4,000 to spend more than 1t
had figured on. but II was decided to
spend this on keeping the road WORK
going.
Cox OF the Police Committee had a
whole lot OF ideas as to how the police
could be cut, but wanted further time
in which to prepare full report. Arch
or. like the tiger who has tasted blood
cried for reduction In all the depart.
mcnts, and It was decided to call all
the department heads before the Board
at its next meeting to show where re-
ductions could be made.
Moore said the Treasurer had In.
formed him that instead Of slS0.00O. as
had been figured before. the County
would have 100000 for the rest Of Its
term. This would give 1t SIC 400 more
than II had previously figured, beside,
special road tax amounting to $1177
In other words, said Moore, from SIG.
900 to $4,000 could be expended for
road work until the new Board came
In. lie recommended that all this
money be spent I'm December. Another
question was whether the Board would
put the band at work. as soon rs II
came back. In that case $3.50 would
have to be deducted from that amount.
II the road money in sight were divid-
Cd among the various districts, how.
ever, the figures would be very small.
Cox said as far as Waialua was con.
ccrned Il would be better to work In
November and lay of In December.
Moore said the money could be divid.
ed pro rata among the districts. Then
these could spend II In November or
December as they pleased.
Archer wanted money during both
months for Eva.
Smith read the County Engineers
report to the effect that sli50 was need
ed for road work in Kool.u, but OF this
part had already been paid.
Dwight said the Honolulu mules
were eating their heads of. He be-
grudged the poor beasts their vacation
and wanted them put to work.
Lucas thought the same. and smith
wanted to give the laborers something
to do this month. He said the country
districts could be given what they
needed. about $1,000. and Honolulu
would have $4,000 for the rest of this
month. The estimates then read as
follows and were adopted:
Waianae. 800; EVA. $3.50; Waialua
$500; Koolauloa No. /. 800; Koolauloa
No. 2. $500: Koolaupoko, 5000. Total

ROCKEFELLER'S OFFER
OF $25, 900 FOR COLOR
ED Y. M. C. A. BUILDING.

For the erection Of a large building for
the colored Y. NJ. c. A. Of this city John D.
Rockefeller has promised to give 5000 on
condition that the local association raise
an equal amount before July l, 1907. An
nouncement to that effect made yesterday
at a meeting Of the colored branch Of the
Y. NJ C. A., in True Reformers Hall. was
the signal for display of enthusiasm. The
canvass for the $4,000 which must be
raised WILL 1t is stated, be started at once,
under the leadership of ]. E. Moorland of
New York city, international secretary of
the colored department of the association.
The initial step viii be the securing of a
secretary for the Washington branch.
A building suited to the needs of thou
sands of young colored men In Washington
has been the desire of the members Of the
colored branch throughout the three years

ers in many of the leading colored churches
in the city have given their aid and support
to the movement, but up to the present
time the colored branch has not succeeded
In securing a home. As the membership
increased to about 900 the need for build
ing was more urgently felt.
Owing to the canvass for money for the
association building recently completed at
1736 G. street the securing of a home. for
the colored branch was postponed. Mr..
Rockefeller gave $4,000 on account of the
cost of the association building on G
street
The proposed building will be erected on
18th street between and T streets. The
lot Is 63x155 feet, with wide alleys on the
