Wc arc pleased to 1cm n from our daily contemporary that the new buildings at the Lunatic Asylum arc advancing satisfactorily. Wc would add, from our own knowledge, that the woik has been somewhat delayed b' the rainy weather, and that the name cause has transformed that load into an unnnmablo something. The improvements at the Lunatic Asylum were much and urgcutly needed, and everybody concerned will be very thankful when the work is completed. Attention to the road that leads there is almost as neccs Bary, and improvement in it would make a greater number of persons very thankful. Money was voted for thoso buildings : 11101103' was al&o voted fo.' road-making. Money was scarce : it is now said to be abund ant. Perhaps lack of labor is the dilliculty? That can hardly bo so while there ai c so many prisoners. NEW, NOT GOOD. .t Every invention is not an improve ment: every convenience is not an -unmixed good. Margarine is an in vention ; but is it an improvement on genuine- fresh butter? The telephone is a convenience, but it is also a nuisance. Some new-fangled lum ber wagons have a metal roller at tached on top of the tail end : wheu in the wagon one end of the lumber rests on this roller : the load is dis charged by revolving the roller with an iron leaver, until the back end of the lumber overbalances and touches the ground ; the wagon is then moved forward, and the other end comes down with a crash. This is an invention and a convenience, but wc cannot pronounce it an unmixed good. It saves timo and labor, but sometimes damages lumber. We know it is so, for wc have seen it. Only the other da' wc saw a load of boards discharged in this way, and several of them were so- badly frac tured by the fall that they could be used for nothing but firewood. "Wc would rather have our lumber de livered by the old fashion method : wo think it better for the lumber. THANKSGIVING DAY. FORT STREET CHUROH Was tilled by an eager and expect nut audience long bcfoic the hour fixed on for the services. The Church was lit up with the happy faces of the congregation, joyfully returning thanks to their Creator for His special mercies during the past year. The service opened with a volun tary, from the 3rd organ sonata, played by Mr. Myron II. Jones, who ably ofllciatcd ns oiganist throughout. The Lord's prayer was mud and the choir sung a response. His Ex. the Hon. K. M. Daggett in .1 few briof remarks described the origin of the custom of celebrating Thanksgiving Day, tracing it over n period of two centuries and a half to its substitution for the annual day of fasting, humiliation and 'prayer, originally instituted by the Puritan Fathers. He then read President Arthur's Proclamation. The choir then Biing the anthem, "Thou visitcst the earth and watcr cst it." Mr. Cruzait then read an appropriate Scripture lesson, which was followed by "My country, 'tis of thee," sung by the choir and congregation. Dr. Damon then offered up a prayer, and tho choir sung a response. After which tho choir and Congregation sung tho following hymn, to the tune of "Fiom Greenland's icy Mountains" : TUANKSUIVINU HYMN. Written for the occimton hg Jilt KsctUencu lion, Jl, M. DuaS'U, American MlnMtr llttUltnt. O Thou who rent the waters and sot they children froo I OTliou who calmed the tciujicst that swept o'er Unlike I 0 Thou who Messed our fathers on bleak; NcwEiiglnnJ'HBlioro!

How, between the 30th and GOth parallels of 1101 th lat itude the great nations of the earth, past and present, were to be found. Hcic America was to be found in its greatest extent. How it was dis covered and rc-discovcrcd, settled and lc-scttlcd, till finally the best possible founders of a great nation came to its shores the Pilgiim Fathers. He dwelt at length on the resources" and capabilities of the States, quoting numerous statistics and prophesying even greater things of America than had ever yet been known, lie finished by stating that the life of any nation was establish ed in lightcousness, and that hcic in Hawaii wc had need to see to it. It was not our plantations, our com moicc, our gatling guns, or our army that would make us strong, but tho moral force of our lightcous ness. Tho choir then sang tho an them, "O clap your hands, all yc people," and the benediction was pronounced. The congregation rc- maincd standing, by request, while Their Majesties went out, preceded by Mr. Daggett, and followed by Messis. Gibson and Dominis. Tho choir consisted of the follow ing: Soprani, Mrs. J. II. Hanford. Mis. AV. "W. Hall, and Miss C. Cas tle; alti, Mrs. F. Judd, Miss N. Judd, Miss C. E. Jones; tcnori, AV. W. Hall, J. Watcrhousc, W.

Smart. Gloria from 12th Mass. Mozart. Tho Canti cles were sung to single chants and proper psalms wore read. LOCAL AND GENERAL ITEMS. Is tho law prohibiting tho shooting of migratorj' and imported birds during certain seasons still in force.? if so, why is it not enforced? It Is said that the charter of tho Knpiolani Park Association is liable to be forfeited by tho terms of tho chartor as thoy have not held a meeting for over a year. .
