ebrated river passing over the dam,
which is nearly three feet high, with
about a four-inch volume of water
pouring over it. The trout ranged in
size from ten to eighteen inches. and
during the time we sat there at least
twenty managed to get over. In many
instances first attempt failed, owing.
however, more to an apparent want o.

than from lack of physical ability ir,
the fish to accomplish the feat, the
smaller fish, as a rule, failing to get
over in the first effort But few of tho
larger fish made a clean jump into tho
smooth water above the apron of the
dam; most of them passed pcrpendicu-
larly up the falling waters and with
apparent ease. These fish were en-
abled to swim straight up this down
pour of the waters by the great muscn-
lar power they possessed; there was no
trick, no sleight of hand about tit

evidently centered in the peduncle or

oaAhoMorAER.s LOOM.

Deserted II stands. in the old-fashioned room,
That timehonored relic, our grandmothef's
loom;
It's youth has departed. rs youth ever will;
It's bettens and reeds have grown silent and
still
Tat the treasures it yielded are, boarded with
IA stores of warm blankets and covcrlets rare
S'en the faded rag carpet that decks this old
room
Was woven long since on our grandmother .

we gaze on it STILL with . feeling OF PRIDE
Enough 'tis weak in the back. with a stitch in
its side:
It's beams are defaccd, as though SCARED in some
strife
IT'S bereft Of its rollers and crippled for life.
Its mission is ended, its race has been run;
Yet We cherish it still. for the good it has done.
Our voices are hushed, As we peer through the
gloom,
And gaze with regret on our srandmother's
loom.
For the finger Of memory points to the time
When grandmother sat, in the pride Of her
prime,
And sang, the shuttle she tossed to and fro,
While her motions kept time with the tresdles
And the web She was weaving grew swiftly
apace.
While q smile of approval crept over her face:
And we children rushed eagerly into the room
we loved the soft jarring OF grandmothers
loom.
How We Uttered the floor with our toys and our
crumbs
While grandmother fingered her threads and
her thrnms;
How the spinning whcel hummed drowning all
minor ills,
As We gladly assisted IN filling her quills!
And how she reQuited our labor of love
With jackets and frocks from the cloth that she
wove,
But. though youths fair blossoms have lost their
fresh bloom,
Fond memories stin cling round our grand
mothers loom

Views Of Dr. Krummel In Regard to the
sarEssso Sea.
The Sargasso sea, or floating masses
Of gulf weed in mid-Atlantic, which iin.
peded the ships of Columbus four hun.
dred years ago, has been the subject Of
careful study by DR.. Krummel, Ger
man mareographer, who takes = DIFF.
ferent view of its origin from that com.
monty accepted. He shows to begin
with, that the idea is much more ex.
tensive than Humboldt supposed. The
middle or thickcst part is elliptical In
form. the great axis lying along the
tropic of cancer, and the foci at forty.
five degrees and seventy degrees west
longitude. Around this are more ex-
tensive but thinner accumuln tions o1
the weed, which vary with the prevail.
ing winds.
The gulf weed {fucus ma tans). which,
with its little round "berrics," is not
unlike the mistletoc in form, but of n
brow nish- yellow color, has been thought
to have lost its property of roofing on
rocks, and to have acquired the power
of living afoat. 1t has even been
suggested that the sea marks the site
of a submerged continent. apparently
the lost Atlantis. DIR. Krummel holds
that the weed has simply been drifted
up to its present position by the Gulf
stream and its affiuents from the West
Indian islands and the gulf of Mexico.
1t is now proved that the Gulf stream
Is not single narrow ''river of the
ocean," rs Maury POLITICALLY described
it; but consists Of number of currents
not only from the Mexican gulf but
the Antilles. The weed according to
DR.. Hummel would take fifteen days to
float as far north as the latitude Of
CapeHattcras and five and n half months
to reach the Azores. In the Sargasso
sea it becomes heavy and sinks; but
the supply is kept up by the Gulf
stream. DR.. Krumm-l is certainly
right in giving the Sargasso sea much
wider area than Humboldt did and
than our maps usually portray. 1t has
been encountered some two or three
hundred miles northeast of Rarbadoes;
but whether the weed il solely carried
from the West Indies and the gulf Is

E" A BIG SUCCESS"
That is What Everybody Remarked
Last Evening at Kawaiahao.

The twenty-ffth annual exhibition
OF the Kawaiahao Seminary at
Kawaiahao Church, last evening,
was attended by a large number of
people-natives and foreigners. Her
Majesty the Queen was present.
The programme was lengthy one,
and occupied nearly two hours.
The Royal Hawaiian Band played
the opening piece, FESTIVAL March. !"
The whole school appeared in two
part chorus. A welcome, we sing"
by Wiener This was followed by a
Bible recitation. A prayer was offered
by Rev. S. L. Dasha, of Hilo, in
Hawaiian. The Misses Lucy Ankai
and Lucy Leleo played piano duet,
Z" Victoria Nocturne." They were
deservedly applauded.
Miss Emma Akana read a compo-
sition entitled Home to Make Home
Happy" This young lady explained
how the different departments of any
home should be managed and con-
Quoted. She emphasized the neces-
sity of social gatherings in home,
and that music and amusements of a
healthful nature should be encour-
aged. They help to brighten the
otherwise dull appearance of home.
A fan drill by twenty-four little
girls was much appreciated. That
beautiful native chorus "Pauahi ka
Lani," was sung by the whole school
in an impressive manner. "Can
Birds Talk?" personated by seven
little girls, elected much laughter
and merriment. The little bird
les wore holokus with short
sleeves their feet were bare.
The trio, protect US through the
coming night" was much admired.
The school joined in the chorus. A
composition, entitled Housekeep.
iEg," by Miss Lydia Makaimoku, was
very interesting. The duties of a
mistress toward servants, of mothers
toward their husbands and children,
were briefly outlined. This, together
with Miss Akana's essay, were in
tended for Hawaiian mothers espe
cially, and in order to reach the class
intended for, the essays should be
translated into Hawaiian and printed
in the native papers for the benefit
of Hawaiian mothers. Misses Mar
garet Powers and Louise Alapai then
favored the audience with piano
duet, "Reveil du Lion," by Koutski.
It is gratifying to find Hawaiian
girls applying themselves faith
fully to this very necessary branch
of education. These young ladies
have reached this high state of pro-
ficiency in the musical art under the
care of Miss Patch, the music teacher.
The grammar department recited
in unison 1.-THE wind and the morn"
Their gestures we're done in perfect
time, and every word was enunciated
distinctly. The "Song OF the Hop
Pickers," by the whole school, closed
the exercises of the evening. Taken
as whole, the exhibition was great
success.
The pupils must have received
faithful training at the hands of
their teachers, and the excellent ex-
ercises of last night were the out
come of such teaching. Hawaii's
hopes are conferred in these girls,
and the girls of similar Christian
institutions, and the work they are
doing for the nation cannot be under
estimated.
