youths abroad to be educated in medi-
cine. This is the only way left us for
saving our race. There is not single
Hawaiian who will dare cheat his own
race; for this reason strongly urge the
immediate sending OF Hawaiian boys
abroad in order 10 avoid our downward
path to destruction. DR.. Matthew
Makslua, true Hawaiian, is at present
in England, studying medical sciences
| One is not sufficient, send several more.
Therefore let us hope till ourldesires are
fulfilled, but in the meanwhile, We must
abide by the laws OF our land. But Just
as have said, there is but one alterna-
tive left us for saving our country, and
| that TO have Hawaiian youths educated
abroad. '
The Royal Hawaiian Band played
during the intervals between the
addresses. All through the. time of
the reception and speech making,the
scene was sad and affecting, height
ened nv the thought, that the visit
would soon be ended.
Then the tour of inspection COM
menced, the standard bearer leading
the way, with the Queen, Prince
Kalanianaole and HIS Excellency
Samuel Parker in a carriage and the
Others on horseback. The Bishop
Home was the first place at which
the procession stopped. One of
the Catholic Sisters, Mother Su
perior Marianne, has charge of
the Home with several assist
ants. From the versnda of the
Sisters home, the Royal party and
attendants watched the double COL
umn of forty-two girls, ranging from
six or seven to perhaps twenty two
years old, file out from the school
room and respectfully bow their
heads with a solemn quietness, as
they passed by, that would have
brought tears to the eyes of men and
women with harder hearts. But
when the girls began to sing In ma
tive the scene and feeling OF those
present beggared description; here
and there one of the poor untortu-
mates would break down, overcome
with sorrow; others with heads
bowed and arms eDtwined around
each other, convulsed with sobs. To
see them rally their courage now and
then, to renew their singing to show
their appreciation of their Sove,
reign's visit, their appearance and
voices, sweet in spite of their attilc
ton, caused the greatest grief even
for those accustomed to such sights.
This was the saddest scene OF all,
and "saddest but family ex
presses it.
After the inspection of the Hos
pital and the school room, the party
wendell their way through the prln-
cipaI part of the Settlement. On
every hand the almost scrupulous
cleanliness and order that was char
acteristic of the cottages and In
mates were noticed by the visitors.
This at least, was a pleasing sight.
There is not a plantation on the Isl
ands that furnishes its people with
cottages so we'll constructed and
neatly kept as those houses are,
some few even luxuriously furnished.
As for clothing and food there Is
abundant supply.
The way to Kalawao was over
divide, and when the summit was
reached, a spot as beautiful as can
be found on the islands lay before
the gaze of the procession. Kalawao
was soon reached, when the Queen
and suite listened to similar exer-
cises of the boys as was conducted
by the girls on the other side.
Upon the return to the Superin
tendent's house, Mr.. Tell served the
guests a sumptuous lunch, mostly |
all, however, of native dishes. Short
ly after o'clock the party began to
return to the vessel At $50 the
Likelike steamed away. Thus ended |
the day, briiy told.
There is no doubt many OF the
least affected would like to return to
Honolulu for another examination.
The position is a hard one for the
Board of Health TO be placed in.
Those least afflicted cry out to the
more than human sympathy; but
we're the Board governed by |
sympathy alone, the results would
be far from desirable. It's
question of duty to the nation,
aud from what was witnessed at the
Settlement by our representative all
is being done that can be done. aud
the inmates are far better cared for
