placed by gravel or cement walks. In
their present condition they are per-
feet rat harbors, and are not only for
this reason detrimental to the public

taken into consideration, but they act
at the present time as a distinct i'm
pediment to our work of Kidding the
town of rats.

NEvADAN SAILS on FRIDAY.

The Observation-Disclosures steamship
Nevadan, Captain Greene. which was
to have sailed for San Francisco at 5
o'clock tomorrow afternoon, will not
leave for the Coast until Friday even
ing, wireless advices having yesterday
afternoon been received from Ka7fului
to the effect that she could not make
the connection.
The Nevadan arrived here last sat
urday morning from San Francisco
with general cargo for Honolulu and
|Kahului and on Sunday evening she
sailed for Kahului, being scheduled to
return here this morning On account
of delay in discharge at the Maui
port and the taking on of a part load
of sugar there, to be completed here,
she will probably be late in returning.
She will take a dozen passengers
from this port for the Coast. The mail
is likely to await the America Maru
which will probably arrive. here from
the orient Friday afternoon and sail
in the afternoon or saturday morning
for San Francisco.

MEN or FLEET ASHORE.

Around town among business men
and on the waterfront, many are ask
ing concerning the system likely II be
adopted by the fleet, upon arrival here,
in. the matter of allowing the thousands
Of men shore leave. 1t is though. by
some that because the vessels are go
ing to coal there will be no opportunity
for the men to get ashore, but this is
a mistake. All the vessel will not be
cualing at the same time and the men
Of those vessels which are not coalfng
Will be allowed ashore It lies entire
~ with the commander of each vessel
as to what proportion of his men he
Will give shore leave at one time. The
pnoba bilities are that since the stay
OF the fleet is to be only seven days
and those vessels coaling will prob
ably use all hands for the operation,
nearly all the men of the vessels not
engaged in coaling win be allowed
ashore, so that Honolulu may expect
To find at least 5000 men ashore at
once
