gines and Hose Wagons

The hoard of supervisors evidently
is in favor OF increasing the eficienc!
of the fire department.
At last nights meeting the com
mittee on fire and electric light depart
ments reported that IT had had fol
some time under its consideration the
advisahility of purchasing additional
equipment for the fire department. The
meml crs of the committee had come tC
the conclusion that the department il
i'll immediate and urgent need of al
"itionnl motor equipment to give tn,
city proper protection against fire.
The committee recommended the pur
chase of three combination pumping
engines and hose wagons, as manufac
tured by the Seagrave Company Of
Ohio, the same TO cost $3.50 t. o. b
Honolulu, and that an appropriation
for this sum be made for their pnr
chase.
The resolution was adopted.
A dramatic touch was given TO thu
proceedings by Chief Thurston's un
expected call to active duty.

MHEN the italian Pope and the Spanish
King were sending armies to the Neither
ands to stamp out the Reformation, that
portion of the country which we now call
Belgium remained in the clutch of Rome.
That portion Of the Netherlands. which we
now call Holland could not be conquered,
although the Pope and the King kept up the
slaughter for many years.
The entire country threw off the yoke Of
Spain, but as the southern portion of it con-
tinued to worship the Pope, the two parts
separated in the year 1880.
Belgium became an independent Catholic
kingdom, and it so remains; while Holland
went its own way, becoming rather more
monarchical and Catholic than formerly.
When the Pope, the Hapsburghs and the
Hohenzollerns started the war on the Greek
Catholics of Servia, they had no idea that all
Europe would become involved.
