ON DIT.

That a Captain Detective has bought the Merry go-round, in the interest of the special police trust. It is understood that this is in anticipation of lack of funds for the pay of the newly created Wilson's detective fares. That the privilege for running the pakapio, chefa, and poke games are obtained from one quarter, and the spoils are divided among three thus making the whole. That the Road Board is of the opinion that life has a member of that Board has a hard Road to travel. That the much feared annextionist, D. L Huntsman, has returned from the Patriarchal Island. That some of the young Patriarts of Waimea have raised the pasturage for horses to six dollars a year, because the natives dared to vote they thought best on election day. It is the old story of the beggar who has managed to mount a horse. That at the best the flesh foods we eat are deceased , and the only safe and natural food for man to eat is that which comes from the <illegible> of mother earth. How can any one eat a dead and decomposing carcass? Ugh! Cannibalism! That the tableaux,at the Luau for the benefit of the Maternity Home, was a success, but not so superbly artistic as that given to a circle of select friends by the Band Boys of Kailua, during the Queen's visit on Hawaii last year. Those who were privileged to see the figures never in the latter will forget the realistic and ideal displayed on that memorable occasion.
