ACT TO CREATE

Governor Frear this morning stated
that he was busy preparing draft
of the bill for submission to Congress
in connection with the proposed Ma
tional Park at Kilauea. So far the
descriptions have not been completed.
but these are being compiled by Sur
veyor Wall. AS soon as these are
ready the bill will be in order, as
far as this end is concerned, and it
is hoped that it can be despatched by
the P. M. S. Korea tomorrow.
The figures $4,000 are to be inser-
ted after the words "at a cost not to
exceed 49," 1t is not anticipated
that all this money will be used if It
is granted. If there is balance this
will be used for the construction of
additional roads and paths to those
contained in the proposed scheme to
be submitted.

STATISTICS OF
LOCAL POLICE
FOR PAST YEAR

The report of the work of the police
court during the past year has just
been compiled and it compares very
favorably with the report of the pre-
vious year, there being a general de-
crease in the number of arrests, con-
victions, acquittals, nolle presses and
commitals.
In his report tC the Hon. Antonio
Perry, Justice, Judge Lymer suggests
that there should be an increase in
the salaries of the two clerks employ
ed by him. The first clerk now re-
ceives $110 per month and the second
clerk $S5.
After careful consideration" writes
Judge Lymer, II do not hesitate to ex-
press my belief that both of these
clerks are deserving of and should re-
ceive a greater compensation and that
the work devolving upon such clerks
would be more efficiently performed if
the salaries were increased"
The following table shows the num-
Der of arrests, etc, as compared with
1909:

SUPERVISORS TO DROP THE LADY
SINGERS ON PUBLIC BAND AND
POSTPONE PLAYERS SALARY RAISES

The band singers are expected to
sing Aloha Oe" with special feeling
the next time they appear, for it will
probably be their last chance for some
time to come. The rest of the men,
bers of the band may play sad music
with similar unusual depth of senti-
ment, for they are going to be turned
down, for the present at least, in their
request for raises of salaries.
The supervisors have practically de-
cided that the band will have to worry
along on its present schedule, for the
time being, and that the two lady
members, singers, shall be cut out.
The little money saved by dropping
the singers is to be given to the other
instrument players. 1t will be a very
small raise, and there is said to be

The road tax fund, which all goes for
roads, is slightly larger and expendi-
lures from this fund will therefore be
larger. They will be $3.50 per month,
instead of $3.50. The net decrease
in the monthly sum to be spent on
road work is $3.50.
