BOMB BY
BABBITT
SUPERVISORS ARE ASKED FOR
FENCES AND OTHER EDUCATION
NECESSITIES.

Supervisor James Quinn relieved the
monotomy of an otherwise sleepy
meeting of the Board of Supervisors
last evening by handing out a scorch
for Superintendent of Public Instruc-
ton Babbitt.
After reading by the Clerk OF
long communication from the head of
the public schools In which that gem
tleman recited the needs of thirty
two schools on this island, in this
City and County Quinn arose to face
tiously remark that he was afraid that
Babbitt had overlooked one very inn
portant item.
What is that?' asked several
yearning interrogators.
How shall we communicate with
Mars?" said Quinn.
In view of the fact that the City
and County of Honolulu hasn't the
wealth of Rockefeller, Rabbits com
munication was somewhat greedy, for
the Superintendent of Public Instruc-
ton went in for luxuries as well as
necessities and made no bones about
what a fence has to do with educa-
ton was not explained.
1T is positively the most outrage
GUS thing I've heard OF in long
time" said Quinn. 1t is a most I'M
reasonable request. For man who
| is supposed to be Superintendent of
Public Instruction 10 present a docu-
ment like this Is unthinkable. l can't
| imagine what he is trying to get at.
Why didn't he advise buying the Mo-
ana Hotel for kindergarten and a
few other foolish ideas?"
Among the new buildings and things
that Babbitt thinks are needed lis a
| fourteen-room school building for the
| Kauluwela school, Liliha and School
streets. New buildings are needed at
Kahuku, where 250 children are COOP
ed in a small structure and 100 have
to stay away from school The re-
quest for attention means a very
| large expenditure il the Supervisors
carry out all suggestions. The ways
and means committee was given the
matter to consider.
| Engineer Gere recommends that the
Pupukea road in the Wahiawa dis
tricttrict be given TO A. A. Wilson to
improve. Roads committee will think
it over.
Cox reported that he had not had
time to talk over the matter of the
City Jail with Sheriff Jarrett who hac
been very busy with the strike.
Time was asked for by Logan in re-
gard to his ordinance creating bu-
reau of supplies and materials. He
said that when completed, with forms
and other details, the system would
prove simple and effective. 1t needed
more study, he said, before submis
sion to the Board
After handling monthly expense
matters and passing $11SO for repairs
to the Waikane bridge, the Board ad
journed to meet again at 1880 OF

Small Prairie fire.

During the high wind last
Monday afternoon a freight train
set fire to the grass in Judge
Words pasture in the south
western portion of this city and
for a time it appeared that the
fire might reach the residence
portion of the city before it could
be extinguished. Hard work on
the part of the citizens confined
the damage to the grass however
and none of the houses in that
portion of town were burned
though it is reported that the
fire went entirely under the res
idence owned by John Turner.

THE FIRST RURAL
FREE DELIVERY
CANYON CITY TO HAVE DISTINCTION OF
FIRST ROUTE ON THE PLAINS.
Final Matters Adjusted and Report of POstmas-
Ter Hunt is Forwarded to the
Postal Department.

To Canyon City and Randall
county is to belong the distinc-
ton of having the first Rural
Free Delivery route in the entire
Panhandle. Some time ago a pc
tition asking for the route was
forwarded and an inspector was
sent to look over the proposed
line. In his recommendations
he approved the route subject to
the opening of two miles of road
and a crossing on the railway
this side of Umbarger.
During the past week all these
matters have been attended tC
and Wednesday afternoon Post
master Hunt went over the line
and found that all the require
mentS had been met and there
fore made the final recommends
ton that the line be established
1t is expected that an examina-
ton for carrier will be held at an
early date.
Sixty-seven families have sign
the request for boxes along the
route which is 20 aud one fourth
miles long. The route begins at
the postotfice in this city, run
ming west along the upper Um-
barger road to j. G.. Cookers
Northeast corner in the edge of
Deaf Smith county. Thence
South two miles to the South
west corner of Mr.. William 5
land. Thence East to Umbar-
ger. Thence Northeasterly to
the Service railway crossing,
crossing the railway and run
ming east to the Arney corner.
Thence North one half mile to
Edward 5 place on city corpora
ton line. Thence East to the
Post office.
The proposed line will serve a
large number of people and it is
thought that it will lead to the
establishment of several other
lines from this city and other
places in this section of the
Plains.
The greater portion of the lab
or in getting this mail route
established was done by very
few people which only goes to
show that when even a few peo-
pie get together determined to
accomplish a certain thing that
great good will accrue.
