Wedding at Honokaa.
Miss Violet Christine Fursey and
Mr. James Wallace Donald, the chem
list of the Honokaa plantation, were
married last Saturday evening,
Easter eve, at the residence of Mr..
and Mrs. A. G. Williamson, Rev. c.
H. II. Bloor, of Paauilo, performing
the ceremony. The bride was given
away by her brother, Head Luna
Fursey of Honokaa, and Manager A.

Nancy Black was the maid of honor,
and Misses Margaret, Mabel Black
and Margaret Williamson were
flower girls. The ceremony was fol-

Don't Abandon Hope.
Hilo Tribune: If there is any con-
ISOLATION in knowing that the great
powers in Honolulu think kindly of
us and our needs once in a while, the
supervisors should derive great JOY
from a letter received recently from
Governor Frear in which he holds out
a hope-not too strong a hope and
nothing like a promise, but still a
hope-that some day the Territory
will secure the land on the makai
side of Front street which is needed
for the widening of that thorough
fare.
At the last meeting of the board of
supervisors it was decided to ask the
governor that the money derived
from the sale of Territorial property
in Hilo be set aside for the purpose
of acquiring the Front street land
referred to. In answer the governor
writes that he understands that the
proposition is already on the wait
ing list" along with certain other
lands which are desired for school
and other purposes, and which are in
line for purchase as soon as sufficient
proceeds have become available.
Personal and General.
Gus Pearson, who was at one time
a member of the mounted police force
in Honolulu, was last Thursday aft
ernoon injured at the breakwater
where he was employed by Contrac
tors Lord and Young. 1t seems that
the unfortunate man in some manner
got between the buffers of couple
of railroad cars employed in hauling
rock from the quarry to the wharf,
and that he had his hip badly in
jured, a fracture being the result.
He suffered great pain when he was
conveyed to the hospital in the am
bulance. He is under the care of DR..
Ritson.
The Hilo Telephone Company has,
since the lot on which its building
stands became unavailable for pur-
chase when it was set aside as coun-
ty property, made a thorough search
for a piece of suitable property on
which to erect building of its own,
but has so far met with no success.

having spent short time at the for

The quarantine of the Porto Rican
camp at Waiakea, where the vario-
loid cases were discovered, was lifted
last Wednesday. There are still
fourteen people cooped up at the
quarantine station. OF these, six are
the original cases, and the other
eight were contacts, though of the
latter three have developed the dis
ease at the station.
The Hilo Hotel plans TO erect two
