the entire country, and that there is
, no reason why it can not meet here
with the same success 1t has else
where. He said that by working I'M
der the laws 1t would give the super
yisors greater degree of power and
a greater responsibility. He made a
point OF the reliability Of the Hawaiian
voter, and took issue with statement
In the resolution of the Kalihi Inn
proYement Club by declaring that
more money had been spent in the
fifth district for roads than in the
fourth.
Il think il Is a misunderstanding
that causes it to be said that there
is injustice in the act. There Is a
force in movement here you may not
know. 1t is a force come to stay.

but want to say that when women
get interested, look out! They are In
terested In ll.s, and they are going to
demand better roads.
Mr.. Gere began his remarks lg de-
claring that the supervisors had made
a good start by appropriatfng $4,000
for bureau to get grades fixed.
Nothing can be DONE" he said,
until this data and cost estimates are
prepared. This planning can't be done
in piecemeal. In these grade maps
sidewalk lines, water pipes, sanitary
sewers, etc, must be provided for
The city is entitled to have plans SO
prepared that the most efficiency and
economy may be enjoyed. The first
thing to be planned is not the artistic,
but the practical side. We need big
plans and definite ones that can be
taken up bit by bit. >" -
Senator Judd also commended the
supervisors in the creation of the. bu-
reau. He said they were approaching
the problem from the right standpoint.
And speaking of the suggestion of
making a big bond issue for street
work, he observed that the right to
issue bonds should be reserved for
other needs, cases such as cannot be
cared for under che frontage statutes.
In the latter part of 1914. you are
going to have to put in a sanitary
sewer system, which will need bonds.
Again the city and county needs a
dignified home, and a bond issue for
such a building will be needed" 49,.
. Supervisor, Petrie replied to the
speakers. He said that the board was
anxious to do all it could under the
statutes, and he thanked the speakers
for their advice.

Improvement Clubs Favor and
Are Opposed to New Street
Betterment Plan

Heartily commencing the s1pervis-
ors for their action in creating and
providing for a bureau of grades,
which bureau is for the purpose OF
having grade maps made of all the
streets Of the city, encouraging them
to proceed under the frontage laws

provement committed, which went on
record as disappearing of the present
application of the frontage tax stat
utes In the district, Representatives Of
the Central Improvement Club appear.
ed last evening before the board of
supervisors and made short speeches.
BY coincidence they came at the
same time that the first petition by
property holders for street improve
ments under the frontage tax law was
received, which acted as q powerful
setoff to the resolution of the Kalihi
Improvement Club. The different
speakers referred to both of these in
struments, and as a rule they con.
tended that the resolution was not
representative Of the sentiment of the
district. The residents asking street
improvements live In Nuuanu valley,
and the improvements they ask were
estimated to cost $6358, and are de
scribed as Sin the district of Puiwa
and Laimi on the eastern side OF Nu-
uanu street, consisting of Puiwa road
as to 745 feet, Park road 1410 feet
and Laimi road I20 feet, making a
total length of street to be improved,
2275 feet This is the first Instance
where property owners have come In
voluntarily and asked for improve
ments under act 131. f.
The resolution from the Kalihi I'M
provement Club, which was published
in the Star-BulIetin yesterday. argued
that II would be inequitable to apply
the law in that district at this time;
that the property was not of sufficient
value to stand the Improvement as
sessment.
The speakers from the Central I'M
proFement committee, an organi-
zation mainly made up Of representa-
tiyes of district clubs. were Clarence

GOTHAM SEEKS FLY SWATTER'
Fame of Teacher in Cleveland Normal
School Brings Offer From
the East.

New York-Dr Jean Dawson, a
woman teacher in the Normal Train.
Ing school of Cleveland, is recon-
mended as an official fly swatter to
the board of estimate.
The appointment is urged by DR.
William Henry Hale, superintendent
of public baths in Brooklyn.
DIR. Hale says DR.. Dawson has rid
Cleveland of flies, which now is known
as 1.-THE fiyless city" Bring her to
New York, he urges, and she will
work wonders here, too. His letter to
the board reads:
ITO get the best results work must
begin before spring, so that the com
paratively few mother flies who sur
vive may be killed before laying eggs.
Success can only be obtained by CO.
operation of several city departments
with the health department.
"As Miss Dawson has demonstrated
an efficiency for this great work,
which is comparable with the elimina-
tons of yellow fever from the Pan
ANA canal zone, suggest that she be
hired by the city"
The board intends to let Comptroll-
er Prendergast wrestle with the sug-

The abbot of the older Russian mon

All the monks held a court to try her,

to be very beautiful. Others contain

MIR. Payne's Philanthropy

Cornell Medical school has just
come into possession of an extra
$4,000 900, and it is generally sus-
pected that Col. Oliver H. Payne is
the donor. Colonel Payne says moth
ing. His friends say ''it would be
about like him.
Hollands" letter telling something
about Oliver H. Payne is of great in
terest. Colonel Payne is one of the
MANY men made millionaires by the
Standard Oil company. He is from
Cleveland originally, but lives now in
New York. Nobody knows how much
he is worth, but few estimate his for
tune at less than $50, 900, and of
course it is growing all the time.
Colonel Payne is bachelor. He has
long been noted for his charities, de-
spite the fact that he has tried to
conceal them. He has given away mil
lions. He was devoted to his sister,
who was the first wife of William c..
Whitney, and thought nothing of Civ
ing her a million dollars or so now and
then. 1t is reported that once he made
a favorite nephew a present of $780,
600, 900, although other accounts have
it that the sum was $5,000,000. But
Colonel Payne's donations have not
all gone to his family, by any means.
He has helped every worthy cause that
has come in his way.
Such men as this are Of inestimable
service to their country. They show
that just because man is rich he is
not necessarily flinty hearted.
