ing Of the Board of Supervisors the
resignation of the county superintend~
ent of roads, John H. Wilson, was ae-
cepted by a vote of four to one- A
contrary vote would have placed all
the district road supervisors under the
direction of the county general Off
Ger, as was intended should be the prac-

done by the board, therefore, was to
pass a resolution to rescind the former

by both officers and men. The men
Of the Hilo company are plainly keen
and are obviously interested in the
work. Mistakes? Yes, there were
some mistakes made of course, but
there was nothing of serious conse-
quence and on the whole I think that
Eilo has a right to be proud of the
company. Your band down here is also
an excellent institution to my mind .
There was only one private absent
from Captain Fetter's command at the
inspection by the United States Army
officer.
COUNTY WORK STOPPED.
The determined effort made at the
last meeting Of the Board of Supervf-
sors to put the County of Hawaii in a
state of solvency once more has al
ready borne fruit. All county work
has been reduced to a minimum and
it appears probable that very little
will be done for at least two months,
by which time old bills will be cleared
up. In South Hilo there are only
three men on the payroll, these being
necessary to look after animals and
machinery. Practically the same state
of affairs exists in the other districts.
In Hamakua work is being continued
on the bridge but this is an absolute
necessity. Kona has shut down al
together.
RUN OF HARD LUCK.
A malignant run of ill-Iuck seems to
be following DR.. Colville who came to
Hawaii recently from the Coast. He
relieved DR.. Archer Irwin at Haka-
lau for month and while there was
badly bruised in a runaway accident
on the Laupahoehoe gulch road. He
went out last week to Olaa to relieyH
DR.. Fred Irwin but on Saturday night
met with an accident which will in
capacitate him for several days. He
was going about the house and, not
being familiar with his surroundings
in the dark, tripped and fell. His right
arm went through a window and was
badly cut in several places. Several
arteries were severed and many
stitches had to be put in the injured
arm.

and the story Of how 1t might have
been that God lifted the veil and gave
him glimpse Of the glories which
are still but the dream Of the faith

Habakkuk had been carrying q
heavy burden upon his heart for q
good many days, burden which was
not made lighter by his passing to and
fro among the people. for each day

lead to one Inevitable result, the pun

Israel had had glorious history,
and her rule had extended from the
sea on the west to the far east, but
now to what depths had she fallen.
The northern tribes had been scat
tered and their land laid desolate and
the tribe Of Judah alone remained,
and sin was fast plunging her to de-
struction. The glory Of the nation
had departed and she was but the
vassal now Of the heather nations
