FROM ALL THE EMPLOYEES.
FINE PRESENTS FOR MIR. AND MRS.
ALEXANDER YOUNG
An Incident of the Machine shop
Billy Roe's Speech
Brought Tears.

There was presentation at the
Honolulu, Iron Works at 1I5 this
afternoon. William c. Roe made
the speech. The men gathered in
the machine shop. Mr.. Alexander
Young was called in. There were
three blasts from whistle. Mr..
Roe mounted big tool and said:
We are all assembled here today
to say goodbye to Our worthy
manager, who is on the eve of de-
parture for foreign lands for an in
definite period. We one and all
desire to express our regrets on
this account.
Inasmuch as the friendship
which you as Our employer and
ourselves as employees at the Homo
lulu Iron Works has been so
pleasant, we need hardly remind
you that this friendship and cordi-
atty will never be forgotten or cast
aside. Notwithstanding the dis
lance which may be between us.
We now heartily express unani-
nous wishes for your continued
health, happiness and prosperity, and
that you will safely move on your
travels with your dear wife and
family, and return again to Homo
lulu with renewed spirits and vigor.
We wish to express our sense OF
appreciation in the great skill
which you have brought to bear in
your position as manager over us,
And we fear that it will hardly
possible to replace you, especially
as you have grown up Gas it were
with the works.
The developments of your genius
and skill have advanced our indus
try for the benefit of all men on
these islands.
AS a token of Our respect we
have the pleasure of asking your
acceptance of this telescope, which
we trust will enable you to see the
old workshop when you are in the
Alps or on the top Of Chemberoza
as you see it now-fguratively,
l mean this as reminder.
We have now the great pleasure
of presenting to Mrs. Alex Young,
from the Honolulu Iron Works
employees, a pair of field glasses
which we wish her to accept as
an evidence of our good will and
esteem, and we hope it will help
her out whenever the telescope we
have presented you breaks down.
And we express Our kindest aloha
to her and wish her happy jour
ney, with a certainty of her return
to Honolulu, with you and your
family, in good health and bene'
flied by the journey.
Mr.. Young was too much af
fected to utter a word. After
pausing half a minute and making
several efforts to speak he bowed to
the men and turned away with
ttears yelling from his eyes. As he
left the shop the men sang For
He's a Jolly Good Fellow" Three
mighty cheers and tiger were
given for the respected manager,
who is going for long trip. Botf
telescope and glasses were i'll
scribed with a few words to the
effect that they were from employees
OF the Honolulu Iron Works. Mr.
Roe has been with the company
eighteen years. Mr.. Alex. Young
has been there about twenty-five
years. Later Mr.. Young sent
note of acknowledgment to the
men.

Further experiments were made
with the diving telephone Wednes-
day after THE STAR had gone to
press with an account of the first
test. The plan is a complete sue
cess Several miles of wire could
be used if needed. The only
trouble at first was that Diver Moss
has a defective ear. Through a
mistake in signs the phone was
rugged for his deaf side.

Opium Brown Has Not Been Seen II


Opium Brown Has Not Been Seen For
Some Days.
The authorities have temporarily
lost trace of the gentleman various
ly known as Billy Stewart,
Murphy" and Opium" Brown.
He did not leave on the Australia

Tuesday. Since then he has not

that Brown is visiting one of the
other islands. Another belief is
that he is under cover in town and
likely to bob up serenely" at any
hour.
