MAUI MAY NOT
ISSUE BONDS

The Supreme Court yesterday hand
ed down decision in which it denied
the right of Maui County to make its
proposed bond issue. The opinion goes
very carefully and fully into the sub
ieet, and the reasoning seems to be con-
elusive. While the decision affects i'm
mediately only Maui County. it forbids,
without an amendment to the County
Act, any county from issuing bonds.
The decision is published in full else
where. The conclusive reason assign
ed by the court is thus stated in the
syllabus:
The limitation in section 55 of the
Organic Act of bonded Indebtedness
of subdivision of the Territory to
certain percentage of the assessed value
of taxable property of such subdivision
refers to property taxable by such sub
division, and county without the
power of taxation has no power to issue
bonds.

Lifuka is the island in the Haabai
group at which the steamer calls, and
from which Mouga-One is reached by
sail boat. Hitherto our congregation
on this island has been very small,
chiefly owing to our having no local
habitation. The few persons who are
members of our Church have met for
worship in the Lay Readers house.
There is now a movement towards ex-
pansion. And whilst many are ex-
pressing a desire to become members
of the Church, as soon as there is a
place where they can meet, a young
chief has promised to obtain for US a
suitable site on which we can build.

next report will contain a record of ad-
vance on this hand.
In conclusion, let me say that, al
though it is reported that the s. P. G..

not yet received any official announce
ment of such appropriation being
made. I am, therefore, still entirely

| By mail received yesterday, Governor
| Frear has been advised that the War
Department purposes to restore to the
Territory most of the land embraced
in the present Punchbowl military
reservation. Only portion of the
front of the hill commanding the city
and harbor will be retained. The re-
naming land which extends mauka on
to Tantalus will probably be cut up
into lots for settlement.
Superintendent w. H. Babbitt, of
the Board of Education, among other
matters to which he is devoting his
attention during his present trip in
teh East, is an endeavor to have
Hawaii granted the privileges of the

the United States. 1t is understood
that the matter may be taken up by
President Roosevelt with the British
Ambassador.

TIL, Edward Campbell, While employ
ed as stevedore by H. Hackfeld &
Company in unloading the coal from
the bark Aeolus on July 26, 1902. The
complaint alleges that at that time the
breaking of rope caused a truck to
fall upon him in the hold of the
vessel, injuring him in such manner
that he has not since been able to
work, and possibly never will be.
Building Inspector Edward G. Keen
states that he and Fire Chief Thurs
ton have made careful inspection of
the moving picture shows in Homo
lulu and have required all precautions
consistent with safety from possible
fires to be taken by the managements.
Except from panics these showhouses
are believed to be comparatively safe,
and this last named danger has been
minimized by requiring exits with
opening outwards, thus doing away
with likelihood of their being jam

HISTORIAN AN IRRITABLE MAN.
Freeman's Temper FIared Up Over
Intellectual Differences.

Freeman, the historian, 1t was said
was apt to grow irritable over mat
ters of intellectual difference. One
day he was at the Macmillans, when
the conversation turned upon the sub
ject OF Ireland. Mr.. Macmillan said
that. for his part, he was in favor OF
granting autonomy.
Whereupon Freeman began to growl
at the use of Greek word.
why can't you speak English ?" de-
manded he. "and say home rule, in
stead of speaking Greek. which you
don't know?"
One OF the guests flushed with anger
and ventured to reprove Freeman.
calling his attention to the respect
due their host. and at the same time
paying tribute to Mr.. MacmilIan's re-
markable abilities. But although
Freeman did not apologize In SO many
words. he smoothed the matter over
by humorous repetition Of his criti-
cism. Later, some one mentioned
gout. There you go again!" ex-
claimed Freeman. why can't we
call it toe-woe?"

leave to them the bestowal of a suit
able name upon the new community
There followed many conferences
between the two, none of which result

stood out for a name that would sug-
gest his native isle, while the Jew was
Just as insistent,. on his part, for a
