KAP|OLAN| HOME To
COST SUM Of $4,000

Thirty thousand dollars viii be asked
from the Legislature to build a new
structure for the sisters and girls in
the Kapiolani Girl S Home. This is the
estimated cost of a suitable building.
The place where, these people now re-
side is inadequate in space, and is a
very old building. In the appropriation
estimate it is stated that the Sisters of
St. Francis have in this line done a
remarkable work. They have been sad
ly neglected. The Sisters think their
long years of work and meager emolu-
ments entitle them to some considera-
ton. Their present accommodations are
in nowise satisfactory.
There was some discussion of this
estimate by the members of the Board
of Health yesterday, but it was finally
decided to leave the whole proposition
as it stood to be submitted to Governor
Frear.

SIX-YEAR OLD BOY
WITH TIN SWORD IN
QUEST OF REDSKINS
Youngster Astonlshes Policeman on
Main Street at 10 O'Clock at Night
by Asking Whereabouts of
Hostile Indians

Toddling along Main street with a
toy sword tightly clasped in his right
hand, 6-year-old Eddie Trimble ap-
preached a patrolman with this query:
"Tan you tell me where the Indians
live?"
The patrolman gazed on the curly
headed youngster, barefoot and hat
less, then glanced at his watch, and
wondered why the child should be
alone on a busy thoroughfare at 10
o'clock at night.
He questioned the youngster, who
proudly told him that his mother had
given him the toy sword and that he
was seeking to kill bad Indians.
Forthwith Eddie was taken to police
headquarters and turned over to the
kindly care of the matron. His quest
for the bad Indians had evidently tired
the boy for soon he was enjoying that
sleep which knits up the raveled sleeve
of care, and dreaming of the hosts Of
redskins that had been felled by his
trusty sword.
A few minutes before IL o'clock last
night a frantic mother rushed up to
the desk sergeant at police headquar-
ters and inquired If a lost boy had been
reported. She was told that little
chap evidently lost was asleep in the
matron's department, and with a sigh
of relief she tainted away.

LAST YEAR MEMORABLE FOR
FOREST FIRE DESTRUCTION

Forest fires are causing consider
able damage in many parts of the coun-
try at present. II will be several
months before the total destruction
is known. for the fire season has con-
siderable time TO run. In figuring out
this years losses, 1t will be natural
to make comarison wit hlosses for
last year which, according to Tread
well Cleveland. jr., in the year bong OF
the department. of agriculture, Will
cause 1908 to be long remembered.
"A dry season. combined with what
seemed to be even more than usual
Indifference toward small fires which
might easily have been extinguished
at the start" says Mr.. Cleveland,
caused destructive cenhagration in
practically every state. with losses
aggregating s10O,000.000. In compari-
son with the havoc wrought else
where, the damage done to National
lOIeStS Was tNCttulHSiS SiSut, lHCy
would have destroyed timber worth
$50. 900 ,0e0-encugh to run the forest
service for six years. Moreover, L
is practically certain that most if not
all of the damage which was done
might have leen prevented had the
forests been fully manned"
Finally, the estimates of Joss made
by the service on National forests are
particularly searching. and takes fail
account of the injury done to young
growth Commonly. estimates OF loss
from forest fires are based upon the
damage done to standing timber any;
to property; they do not reckon the.
usually far greater loss in injury o.
destruction Of young growing stock"
The methods by whi~h the govern.
ment keeps down the fire losses on
the National forests include:
I. Constant and systematic patrol
by picked forces of rangers and
guards.
