Alfred Martin. an old colored citizen who lived near Taylorville, just south of here, was found dead in the woods yesterday by MT. Snider, who at once reported the fact to the proper authorities. He had not been seen for about week before his body was found. It seems that he had been in the habit of going off by himself, and his absence was not noticed. No foul play is suspected, as there were no indications to support such theory.

MISS BERTHA CONDE VISITS
WAILUKU.

Miss Bertha Conde of New York
City national secretary of the
young Woman's Christian Associa-
ton paid a flying visit to Wailuku
last week. Miss Conde, accom-
panied by Miss Harriet Taylor,
who is also associated in the work
of the Y. M. G. A. and Miss Irene

members of Dean Bosworths party
who are in route for the mission
AIRY conference in Japan.
Miss Conde is the grand
daughters of Rev. and Mrs. Daniel
I, Conde, who lived in Wailuku
from 1S46 to 1855, where they were
enga ged in missionary work among
the natives. The Conde family
lived in the house now known as
the William and Mary Alexander
Parsonage.
The party arrived on the Clau-
dine Saturday and were the guests
of Rev. and Mrs. r. B. Dodge.
Among the places of interest that
were visited was the grave of Miss
Condos grandmother which is in
the rear of the native church.
The party returned to Honolulu

LOCH GARVIB ON THE REEF.

The Loeb Garvie with two thou
sand tons of nitrates aboard bound

Point on Mondoy morning at 7:15

She was from Chill and owing to
the foulness of her bottom made
very slow time fifty eight days.
Different vessels have been pulling
at her but at last accounts was
still fast on the reef. The ground
ing Of the vessel was due to the
fact that she was too close in when
the wind died down and the cur
rent carried her in on the reef
where she struck bow on. She
has forty two feet of water astern
and it is believed that if the
weather permits she may be light

SUPERVISORS MEETING.

The County Board of Supervis-
ors monthly meeting was held this
week. Thursday was the day on
which they met for the first time
this month and after the routine
business of reading the minutes
which were approved Communica-
tion were read. One of the first
was a letter from County Trea-
surer l.. M. Baldwin who wrote the
Board that he had called the at
tention of the Territorial Auditor
to the fact that the county of Maui
was getting much less per month
than she is Untitled to of the taxes
for each month and while ultimate
ly receiving all of her share was
being deprived of the use of moneys
needed for present use. AS a re-
suit of the efforts of the Treasurer
the Auditor had forwarded an ex-
ira one thousand dollars as the
allowance for the month of Feb
ruary. This was good news to the
Board as they are unable to begin
needed permanent Improvements
for the reason that they have not
the available funds.
J. B. Kapihi wrote the Board
asking damages to the extent of
fifty dollars occasioned by persons
riding over some barren gulch
lands in order to make crossing
where a bridge had washed out.
The Action on the matter was de-
ferred to get further information
on the subject.
The Honolulu Iron Works wrote
asking that their certified checks
be returned but as the Chairman
stated they had already been re-
turned by him no further action
was taken in the matter.
The County Attorney wrote the
Board in re permanent crossings of
public highways by roads.
An application was made to the
Board by persons living on the
Waihee side of the steel bridge at
the foot of Market street asking
that a stone wall be erected above
the bridge to prevent the water
from cutting a new channel above
the bridge and damaging much
property below. Action deferred.

LOCH CARVE ASHORE AT KAMALO PIT.
Gets too Near Shore and as Wind Dies Down is Driven
Ashore by the Curren.-Miss Condo Visiting
Friends in Waluku.

A communication was received
from Superintendent of Public
Works, Holloway to the effect that
a bill is now before the Legislature
for the completion of the County
building In case the work is done
the County will be paid back all
moneys expended and the County
will be expected to pay rental from
the first of February.
A letter addressed to the County
Engineer from the Superintendent
of Public Works was to the effect
that he had received letter from
j. M. Vivas asking that lease be
made out to one of his japanese
clients to piece of abandoned
road at the corner of the Waihee
Mill road for consideration of
thirty dollars per annum. The
County Engineer was directed to
write the Superintendent that the
Board considered the road in ques.
ton part of the public highway
and subject to the CONTROL of the
County Board of Supervisors of the
County of Maui.
The County Engineer reported
on the condition of the roads of
Molokai where he went last month
to make careful inspection and
especially to learn whether it would
be best to build road that is
washed by the sea on a higher
grade or repair the one on the low
er level. He found the latter
course the better one as it will cost
much less than the former.
The chair called the attention of
the Board to the many errors re-
ported in the Evening Bulletin one
of which was the statement that
the Hack and Sanitary Inspector
for Lahaina receives "a salary of
$500 per month while the Fish
Inspector receives the same amount
while as matter of fact neither
of them receive any such an amout.
Keliinoi stated that he was put
down as an assistant to the County
Attorney.
The claim of Peruvia Goodness
as Hack Inspector for Wailuku
was turned down as the board had
not authorized his appointment but
had appointed George Weight to
that position. 1t was stated that
the Sheriff had made the appoint
ment without the authority of the
Board.
One of the most important mat
ters considered by the board was
the resolution introduced by w.
T. Haia discontinuing the office of
County Engineer and turning over
all road work of each district to
the Supervisors of each district.
Action on the resolution was de.
ferred as Supervisor Kaiue was
absent on account Of illness and in
the meantime the road work will
suffer as it is known the system is
in a chaotic state.
While Supervisor Haia is doubt
less honest in his position this is
the most vicious matter yet broach-
ed by the Supervisors of the
County of Maui. As a political
machine it has no parallel in the
history of the Territory, While
the amount Of benefit to the tax
payers will be of so small an
amount that it will be not worth
The Maui news. [volume] (Wailuku, Maui, H.I.) 1900-current, 1907-03-09

considering. The number of APP
plications for lunas jobs can not be
estimated and as the Supervisor
must either give the same or lose
the votes he will be compelled to
either grant the request or suffer
defeat at the next election.

Not to Be Fooled,

A city lad spent part of last sum- mer on a farm owned by his uncle. It was the boys first visit to the coun- try, and everything on the farm was delightfully."- unfamiliar to him.
 One afternoon the youngster, who had been prowling about the chicken house, seized the product of one cack- ling hen, and marched exultantly into the house with his prize.
 Let me have it, son." said the farmers wife, "and I'll cook it for your luncheon"
 You must think I'm a greenhorn, auntie!" exclaimed the boy. T guess the hen cooked it all right. It's warm."-Harper's Weekly.

 Well" answered Collier, there are some out there. But" he added, im- pressively, we're still in the ma jority, old boy, still in the majority!" -Harper's Weekly.
