1t is expected that the Hilo railroad
extension wifi be. open for traffic the
whole length to PaauilO before the LIST
of May The last steel bridge on the
line, that crossing Maili gulch, was
completed last Sunday, and the track
will be laid to Kukaiau by the 18th
inst. Five days more will carry the
line to the terminus of the extension
as now planned 1t will be four years
On July "a since work on the extern
sion began. In time no doubt the road
will be extended through the remain
der of Hamakua district and into Wal
mea. The many steel bridges on the
extension make It one of the most
notable pieces of engineering to be
seen anywhere, while the gulches they
span and other scenery along the
toute make it one of the most pic
turesdue bits of railroad in the world

KOOLAU Tunnel
PRELIM|NARIES
NOW Completed

Preliminary work upon the big Koo-
lau tunnel, now under construction for
the Oahu sugar plantation, has been
completed, according to a statement
made yesterday by Engineer H. K.
Bishop, under whose charge the work
is going ahead. I'VE expect very soon
to get down to the reaf work of drill
ing the tunnels" Mr.. Bishop explained.
up to the present time, we have sim
ply been locating camps for our work
men, getting our immense plant in
readiness, and laying about twenty
miles OF track for the cars. Tracks
have been laid from Pump to the
south portal, and from Waikane wharf
to the north portal Some time next
week we will get down to the actual
work OF blasting and drilling"
There will be in all about ten and
one-half miles of tunnel constructed
The problem of ventilating the longer
tunnels is said in itself to present
great difficulties. When completed, ex-
perts say, the work will be one Of the
greatest engineering feats ever ac-
complished in Hawaii.

The quarters are now about rs per
cent complete on the average. some
of the sets being almost finished,
while others show but little more than
the frame work The cement gun is
used to shoot on the concrete, there
being five muzzlea available AS an
instance OF fast construction, the five
field officers sets, which are now rap
idly nearing completion, had not been
started twenty days ago.
Government Own Contractor.
The work at Cashier Is being done
on the purchase and hire" plan. In
other words, the government is its
own contractor. incidentally many
contractors would make larger pro-
fits If they introduced some of the
system for economy and checking
that is now in force on the army job.
As soon as construction material is
cleared away work OF identifying the
grounds will be started Already q
number of monkeypod trees have been
planted between the post and the
road. and 1t Is the eventual plan to
have vines and creepers covering all
the houses Lawns and flowers will
be planted between. and bordering the
fine macadam roads. Major Cheatham
has planned a separate color scheme
for the gardens Of the three posts.
The cavalry will be yellow. the in
fantry white, and the field artillery
red, conforming to the colors Of the
three service arms.

In spite of the fact that $250,000,
which army authorities here expected
the last congress to appropriate for
the new cavalry post at Schofield bar
racks. was striker out of the bill, it

On hand for the cavalry post, and the

As assistant to the chief quarter

Chalmers G. Hall, formerly of the
Fifth Cavalry, is the man on the job
at Cashier. Captain Hall lives right

caused a suspension of work, would

WAHIAWA PEOPLE WANT SEPARATE
DISTRICT TO IMPROVE HIGHWAYS

Eefore the select Oahu committee
of the senate appeared members of
The Waialua Improvement Club last
night to present their arguments for
the passage of S. B. lie. which would
make Wahiawa separate district.
Joseph Lightfoot explained to the
committee that Wahiawa is now a
part of the district of Waialua, and
that all the road tax in recent years
has gone for the Improvement of the
thoroughfares of Waialua, to the det--
riment of their community. He point
ed out that if the bill is. passed Wa
hiawa will be made into separate
district, and will have the right to its
road tax, which money it may spend
to improve street conditions there.
The statement was made that in the
last three years the road tax for the
present district has amounted to $751;
000-a year. and the extra tax. received
from automobile and other vehicle IL
censes, has amounted to approximately
$500 annually, both of which sums go
to the district for road improvements
.Of all that money Wahiawa has
not received more than $500. Our
streets are in bad condition. A great
many repairs are needed, and We feel
the only way we can make them is to
be declared a separate district"
The committee asked number of
questions, and it was stated that 1t
would report later on the measure.
Among those present to represent
Wahiawa were: -..

The infantry post is built on what
is known as the extreme concentra-
ton plan, favored by General Wood.
That is, each regiment occupies a
compact little village of its own, in
stead of being spread out over a
square mile or so of territory. The
quarters are arranged In the form of
e horseshoe, with the field officers

and Monroe. 1t was after 2 o'clock
in the morning" ~
He paused, to make this real i'm
pressive, because 2 o'clock in the
morning is an awe-inspiring hour.
After 2 o'clock in the mOrning?"
the judge questioned, with a proper
degree of surprise.
Eyes, sir. l was standing there and
I heard two shots. ran along the
street and looked down one street
and 1 seen these three run into an
alley.
81 couldn't see how big they were
in the dark" This is quite a neces-
sary explanation, since the boys are
all small for their ages and Colby is
about six foot tall and heavily set.
81 called to them to stop, but they
wouldn't, so l fired some shots in the
air. Still they kept running.
Then 1 fired a couple of shots at
their heels and hit this boy in the
shoulder.
'Still they wouldn't stop, but they
ran into a back yard. l found out
later that it was the place this boy
lived, and when 1 got there 1 couldn't
see anybody, but heard a rustling
under the porch and l called to them
to come out or 1 would fire again.
Two of them came out and was
just going to search the house for
the other one, when he came around
the side and told me he was shot.
when 1 got them to the station
1 found they had stolen some
pigeons"
What have you to say for your
self?" the judge asked the boy who
had been shot.
why, my mother said could
sleep with these other two fellows
out in our yard because it was hot.
And we remembered where there was
some pigeons, so we got some and we
were coming back. and these men

Which means that if anybody tells
you to halt because he is an officer
you must give him the benefit of the
doubt, even if it costs you your watch
and chain.
For if you run-and it should be a
real protector of the law-you are
apt to get shot.
The man from whom the pigeons
were stolen was in court and he was
a real human being.

punished, judge" he said, I'VE were

But they did some damage to your

VCH! HOW CHILDREN
HATE Castor OIL
Delicious "Syrup OF Figs" Best TO
Cleanse Their Little Closgcd
Bowels.

Look back at your childhood DAYS.
Remember the psysc that mother in
sisted on--castor oil, calomel, cata-
artics. How you hated them, how you
fought against taking them.
With our children it's different.
The day of harsh physic is over We
don't force the liver and 80 feet of
bowels now; We coax them. We have
no dreaded after effects. Mothers who
cling to the old form of physic simply
don't realize what they do. The chill
dren's revolt is well-founded. Their
little stomachs and tender bowels are
injured by them.
If your child is fretful, peevish,
half sick, stomach sour, breath fever
ish and its little system full Of cold /;
has diarrhoea, stomach ache; doesn't
eat or rest well,-remember-look at
the tongue, If coated, give a teaspoon
full of Syrup Of Figs, then don't worry,
because you surely will have a well
smiling child in n few hours
Syrup Of Figs being composed en-
tirely of luscious figs, senna and aro-
mates simply cannot be harmful 1t
sweetens the stomach, makes the liver
active and thoroughly cleanses the lit
tie ones waste-clogged bowels. In a
few hours all sour bile, undigested
fermenting food and constipated
waste matter gently moves on and out
of the system without gripping or nau-
