BLAZE THREATENS :.
B|TUL|TH|C PLANT
Prompt and Efficient Work Of
Fire Department Prevents
Serious Loss To Company

But for the prompt and intelligent
handling of o blaze which broke out in
the plant Of the Honolulu Bitulithic
Company, near the county prison and
cable tanks late yesterday afternoon,
serious loss would have occurred and a
number of street Improvements now un-
der way would have been indefinitely
held up.
The blaze was started apparently
from fire falling out of melting pot
No. 3 and igniting pieces of bitumen
lying scattered around, as the plant has
been rushing lately to supply street ma
terial for Manoa and Beretania Streets.
The light frame construetiO material
covering the melting tanks, and the
screens were burned, but the frame
dynamo building was unframed. Had
the latter been burned it would have
been serious loss to the company by
reason of its numerous contracts.
"Only the quick and splendid work
of the fire department saved our
plant" said J 4. Gilman last evening
" Had the dynamo building gone, we
would have been up against It. As it
is, we believe we win have everything
restored sufficiently to be ready to sup
ply our material on Thursday morning.
The work Of the fire department. at our
plant is a0other feather in Fire Chief
ThurstOn : rap.' ~.
The bituli'hic plant, as it stands, rep,
resents ah"lt $4,000 outlay. The
actual loss Ivy fire was small.

WATER DEPARTMENT
ASKS MORE MONEY
Engineer Kirchhoff Says Dry
Weather Has EntaiIed
Extra Expense

a request for $4,000 over and above
the appropriations for the water and
sewer department, for the three months,
ending September 80, was nude by En-
gineer F. G. Kirchhoff of the water and
sewer department, at last night g meet
ing of the supervisors.
Kirchhoff, who is acting superintend-
ent of the department in the absence
of Superintendent II. f. Murray, stated
in a communication that owing to the
unusually dry weather it has been nee
essary for the past two weeks to pump
almost continuously. -. -.
The Nuuanu Valley supply Of water
is barely sufficient TO supply that dis
trict, and the Beretania high level
pump and the Makiki pump are making
up the deficiency. In consequence Of
these conditions, the fuel oil appropria-
tion for the current three months, end
ing September 30, has been exhausted
and $4,000 is required to meet the extra
expenditure. -" ~. e.
The department has been put to
large and unlocked for expense in con
nection with the laying Of the Bere.
tania Avenue and Puiwa Lane water
mains, and in putting in new sewer
pipes and large size branches. This
work has been made imperative by
road improvement work In the district
named. For extra expense contracted
in this connection the department asks
for $4,000, $1,000 of which is for the
Beretania Avenue improvement and
$500 for the Puiwa Lane work.
Along Beretania Avenue it has been
found necessary to lay additional side
sewers in order to take care of the
rapid growth Of the city and obviate
the tearing-up of new pavement. For
this work 5000 is required for 600 feet
of six inch sewer1piping.
1t was stated at last night s meeting
that yesterday morning there were only
fourteen feet six inches of water in
No. l, ten feet in No. Q, eight feet six
inches in No, 3 and fifteen feet six
inches in No. reservoir.
1t appears that the department is
barely holding its own in the matter
Of furnishing drinking water to resi-.
dents of certain districts, and that the
lighting of the city has come to assume
the aspect Of a serious problem. m,
The matter was referred to the wa.
terworks committee.

Aberdeen. Sept. 4.-The price Of
wheat as fixed by the president upon

opinion that the price is too low.

arriving. The tented city of the

no crowd jamming the entrances nor
small boys watching with bullying
eyes nor mouth agape. Some of
these may be termed big attractions.
One of the wagons carrying a show
got stuck in the gate because the top
rail was low.
The stalls of the barn dedicated to
the speed animals of the track is well
filled with the horses and their army
of attendants. Work with the horses
is going forward all the time. and
great must be the love of a man for
a horse to so devote the whole 81
hours of a day to their care and at
%tention. The tendons of their legs
are bandaged, they are blanketed,
polished and exercised with all the
care in the world. Even their

wooden blankets.
