Reasonable Expense.

This job, which was under the per
sonal supervision of Road Supervisor
Wilder, was completed at total cost
of s704.5s for the 1903 square yards, or
lat the rate of fifty-four cents a yard.
This is reasonable price for that kind
of work, and although not expected to
be as lasting as bitulitbic it is believed
that it will wear we'll for a year or
more before needing repairs.
The bitulithic work on Fort street,
between King and Hotel Streets cost
$5004.54, or at the rate of S3.741 a
square yard for the total of 1897. 5
yards paved. Contractor Gilman stat.
ed last evening that this was a special
rush job and the cost was greatly in
excess of what large contract would
cost per square yard, but he declined
to approximate what this possible cost
might be.

Damage Not Heavy.

A large number of the poorer quar-
tiers in the city were also damaged
somewhat, but the estimated loss last
evening was placed at only 100000
The disaster did not interfere in any
way with the demonstration given Gem
eral Madero upon his arrival, which
was soon after quiet had been restored.
No member of the foreign colony
was injured.

artillery detachment on the outskirts of
the city, whero-the wives of twelve of
the soldiers were killed by the falling
buildings, from the ruins of which the
bodies of thirty-six artillerists have
also been recovered.
Besides the barracks number Of
other important buildings were injured,
including the Cathedral of santo Do
mingo, the national palace and the
railroad warehouses. The railroad
tracks were also displaced in many sec

the present political handicap Of the
board Of supervisors and it's road com.
mittoe the road department is doing
some excellent work. 1t has become
so much the habit for citizens in Homo.
lulu to criticize the road work that Il
will have to strive hard for long time
to convince the taxpayers that real
practical work is being accomplished,
although there is still much that needs
the AK as well as criticism.
Figures taken from the accounts Of
the road supervisor yesterday in re-
gard to the work done on Dole street
show that the expense for cleaning that
street was s7s.7s. This includes the
street from Punahou and past Alexan-
dria street. 1t was past this latter
street that the brush was cleared. AL
together three days and a half were
spent on this street and some of the
cross streets. The amount of street
with brush was $50 feet past Alexan-
dria street, where Dole street is about
fifty feet wide.
One of the recent pieces of work in
the city by the road department which
has the appearance of being up to date
is the block on Bethel between King
and Hotel streets This consists of six
inches of macadamizing under specifica-

and found-a Christmas tree cast into
