Tho matter came up in connection with the proposal sub mitted to renew insurance on a num ber of buildings which have heretoforo been insured. It was tho sense of the members that tho county could better afford to take tho risk of fire on tho bulk of Its property, than to pay tho premiums on insurance.

Tho suit had been previously brought against Mrs. William Miner, but was later dis missed. Eugene Murphy, last week, brought suit against E. II. Hart, and W. T. Robins-on and J. Garcia, as his bonds men to recover money claimed to have been deposited with Hart, as clerk of the court, Later an answer was filed by tho defendant Garcia in which denial was made that ho had ever gone on Hart's bond. It is un derstood that it was A. Garcia Instead of J. Garcia, who Is Hart's bondsman. Judge Edlngs departed for Hono lulu on Wednesday afternoon and will not return until after the holidays. There will be no work in tho circuit court, therefore, until after tho first of tho year. PLAN TO CANCEL MRAKET HOUSE LEASE.

The lease may bo canceled In another year, and notice of such intention was given at last month's meeting. Tho supervisors, however, expressed their willingness, at last week's meeting, to listen to any new proposition which tho owners of tho property expressed a deslro to submit.
