THE FAW RESIDENCE
PARTIALLY BURNED

On last Saturday morning about IL 80
O'Clock the residence occupied by Mrs.
Enoch Faw and daughters, Misses Olive
and Lizzie Faw, and Miss Chester, on
Roswell street. was discovered to be on
tire in the roof of the kitchen. The
tre alarm sent the fire department
promptly to the scene. The blaze was
burning fiercely and great volumes of
smoke we're ascending Two streams
of water were turned on and subdued
the.tire in the kitchen roof, but by this
time the flames had reached the rear
OF the main building and were burning
rapidly. The tiremen with persistency
bravely fought the flames with axes and
water, but tin deck baffled their eff
forts until an axeman succeeded in
tearing up part of the tin roof The
hidden flames were then soon reached
and extinguished.
The rear roofs and ends of the build
ing were burned, bnt the front rooms
OF the building we're all saved. Most
all OF the furniture was gotten out, but
badly damaged.
The origin of the fire evidently was
caused by defective hue.
The property was a two.s story, COM
modious building, and belongs to the
Enoch Faw estate. The building was
insured for 81 400 and the furniture for
$500, in the Southern Mutual of Athens,
Mr.. j II. Groves. agent.
The firemen deserve credit for their
splendid, untiring and efficient work.

A new wall is being placed all around
the enclosure of the Presbyterian
church. 1t is constructed of Stone
Mountain granite, the blocks being
cemented together in most pleasing
and durable manner. On the top of
the cemented granite blocks are very
long strips of purest white marble
which forms decided contrast to the
dark granite and gives fine finishing
touch. The steps are also to be made
new. They are easy of ascent and
quite low The grounds, too, have
been sodded in blue grass. The church
is to be congratulated upon the addi-
tion OF this needed feature, which adds
so greatly to beauty and convenience.

IN TIME TO TAKE UP CONSIDER
ALTON OF IMPORTANT ITEMS.

Governor Carter is expected to re-
turn to Honolulu July 6. He will
reach the Territory just in time to
have presented for his final consider
alton the question of issuing more
bonds. The present work on the Ala
kea street wharf will be completed
about the time that the Governor gets
home. In fact his steamer may dock
at the new government wharf. The
question of improving the wharf by
The Legislature appropriated $4,000
out of the new loan fund for the con-
struction of such a shed. An item of
$132, goo for the completion of the Nuu
an dam and an item of $1,000 for the
extension of the Kamuela water sys-
TEN, were also inserted in the same
measure. Carter has announced that
he proposes to hang up all of these
items, for he viii not issue any more
bonds during his administration. The
new Alakea su.eet wharf will not be
worth nearly so much uncovered, as it
will be covered.
1t is likely that there will be a con-
ference between the Territorial and
the naval authorities when the wharf
is ready, as to whether the Naval au-
thorities will permit privately owned
steamers to use the Naval wharves,
free of charge, when the Territorial
wharf is ready for use. 1t is thought
that the naval authorities will cooper
ate with the Territorial authorities in
this respect, however and so long as
the Alakea street wharf is ready, per-
mission for private vessels to use the
Naval slips will be denied.
