WATER WORKS GULLIES
SPOIL CITY STREETS

Editor Evening Bulletin: The
out of condition of many of our city
streets Is becoming a matter of con-
slant comment The misery of the sit =
uatlon Is accentuated by the numerous
gullies, extending in many instances
entirely across the main thoroughfares,
caused by the negligent manner In
which the employees of the water works
have done the work of rehlllng bitches
dug for the purpose of laying water
pipes.
As the superintendent of water
works rides about In an automobile he
must be conyersant with this unneces-
sary nuisance. He Is probably free
from the expense that other automobile
lists are put to for repairs to their
machines caused by the continual jolt
In passing over these Instructions to
traffic, for which his department is re-
sponslble. One OF the notorious in
stances of this lack of intelligent work
manship and supervision Is met with
just after turning into Kalakaua ave-
nue. from King street, where there are
four of these thank you, marms" with
In as many hundred feet, which make
the best of machines shiver in making
passage over them.

IRISH jig
NEARLY FATAL

r. Maurice Mcmahon came very near
to dancing his last Irish Jig Sunday
afternoon In Palolo Valley, a deserted
house belonging to Mr.. Rhodes being
the scene of the near tragedy. Nc
Mahon was spending the afternoon in
tramp about the valley with his wife
and woman friend. They came upon
the deserted house and decided that it
would be good place to rest before
starting homeward.
Being possessed with the natural Gu

inspect the premises The house, he
found. was too big to move but In the
kitchen he noticed II covered tin with a
wire handle standing in the corner.
This he picked up and, shaking it Wig
orously, found that there was some
thing inside that gave forth rhythmic
sound as 1t knocked against the sides
of the tin. This was Just the accom-
paniment necessary for an Irish Jig, so,

OF the presence of the fly, and he
thought the details of the quarantine
would depend somewhat ON the atti-
tude of the local authorities In fight
ing the pest here.
Governor Frear when called on
said he thought there was ample lc-
gal authority for Iinstituting mea-
sures for handling fruit In a manner
dictated by the experts. He was not
so sure about the money. He was
disappointed that the last Legislature
did not provide a fund for fighting
pests out of the current revenues:
there was not enough in the conser-
walton fund TO go around.
Mr.. Swasey OF the Planters experi-
ment station talked at length on the
methods of determination and COM
mented on the fact that the quick ac-
ton secured from the parasite for the
leaf hopper was exceptional. He adj
vised that the scientists must study
the habits and food of the fly a consid-
cradle time before they could speak
with authority.
Mr.. Warehouse of the Board of Az
riculture called TO memory the eXpe-
rience of the plague when q lot OF
property was destroyed and II was
found later that the same results
could be obtained without burning
houses. He conseled to go slow.
IHraHtnr NFflnnx, 81
pertinent station said that the idea of
eXterminatlng this fay was all non
sense, or words TO that effect. II
might be controlled. but man who
would undertake the contract of WHIP
ing out all the fruit on which the Nv
might feed would need fully a mil
lion and half If not two millions
and there was always the possibility
that after everything had been des-
troyed the fly would still be found in
the berry OF q plant that has been
overlooked in the era of destruction.
Mr.. Higgins rose to state that he
is a radical. He thinks the fly can be
wiped out and the duty of Hawaii, as
an outpost of the country Is to go AT
1t on that basis and notify the Fed
eral' government of the seriousness If
the situation. I1'SlVWU
George Il. Carter wanted to know
whether he should destroy his vine
yard in the interests OF the common
good. He was told that the fly has
not yet attacked the grape. When
he asked about his mango tree he was
told to destroy the infected fruit.
As for destroying the grubs, Mr..
Ehrhorn suggested that infected fruit
be placed in coal oil tin, as the lar
vac drops to the ground and would
find its death in coal oil after leav-
in gthe fruit. The best method of
course Is burning. In Mexico the
fruit Infected by some flies Is buried
but the character of the soil has an
important bearing on this phase of
the fight.
The discussion was very interest
ing and instructive, and shed lot of
light on the situation showing that
all are agreed on the seriousness of
the pest, but there are grave differ
ences to whether 1t can be wiped out
or controlled.

prompt action taken at a time when

II viii be remembered that the
America Maru which Captain Stevens

the rank and file Of transatlantic

The steamer pulled away from San

sengers. In the Asiatic steerage are
less than one hundred returning To
the land OF their nativity at Japan

will layover at Honolulu, most of them
hoping to resume the journey to the

shooting was witnessed by a japanese

After DUNN had shot Volkas, he
next pointed his revolver at Blanche,
his mistress, and shot her twice. Be-
lieving she was dead, he next turned
the revolver on himself Both Blan-

The revolver used Is of 3S-caliber
and was bought at Il. o. Hall 4 Son,

Volkas was an eX-sergeant in the

The railroads have given buildings,

cities There are over ga railroad

The whole history of the develop

grown to such proportions and i'm.
portance goes back to George VIII
liams, the Diapers clerk. who con-
ceived the idea of this organization in
his upstairs room in the dry goods
store. The Y. Nj. c. A. was started
purely from religious motives. Much
Of its prosperity has undoubtedly
from within the heart of one young
man, less than "a years old; It was
not a ready-made movement, offered
to such. young men as cared TO ac-
cept II.
Williams was Christian of the
Martin Luther character. He went
TO London at twenty, fell into the
company of lao young clerks in the
dry goods establishment of Hitchcock
& Rogers, and in three years had
practically converted the establish.
ment, fro the head of the firm down.

ciety within the store. In those days
the clerks of Graper's store lived In
dormitories provided for them. His
work was SO phenomenal that II at.
tracted general notice throughout
London, and it was for the purpose OF
spreading the movement among the
clerks of other like establishments
that the Diapers Evangelical associa.
ton. shortly after named the Young
Mems Christian association, was or
ganized by Williams and some earn,
est friends.
It was not until 1861 that the move.
ment spread outside London. vii.
liams himself carried 1t to Paris, on q
business trip. A commercial traveller
took the idea from Paris to Holland I;
a clerk from one of the London stores
started a society in Adelaide, Aus.
tralia, and associations sprung up
shortly afterward in Boston, Mon.
treal. Calcutta and other cities of the
world.
Today the Y. M. G. A. is furnishing
education for thousands OF men. II
