is the newest in use in all o!
the large factories of the East, and
being thoroughly conversant with all
manner of complicated work, we claim
to be able to turn out as perfect work as
can be obtained in any part of the
world.
The distance from optical centres and
the long delay in sending away for
special work has prompted us to add
this special department to our already
large optical business, and we hope to
be favored with a liberal share of the
work done in Honolulu. PRICEs-the
same as in San Francisco, and on some
work little lower.

MR. EDITOR At the recent an.
nual meeting of the Trustees of the
Chinese Church (Mr. ]. b. Ather-
ton, chairman) it was suggested
that brief statement be published
relative TO the expenses incurred by
the addition made To the church
building, on Fort street, together
with the purchase of the church
organ and other expenditures.
The church edifce, as originally
erected, with the growth of the con-
gregation, proving too small for the
purposes for which it was intended,
IL was decided 10 build the recent
" completed annex. This not only
greatly increased the seating capa-
city of the church, but enabled us
10 secure at the same time a large
and commodious school room in
the lower story for the purposes of
a kindergarten school, which has
become one of the most important
factors in our mission work. All
this, though great care has been
used by the building committee,
has neceSsitated a considerable ex-
penditure. The entire cost amounts
10 $3S75.46. Towards meeting this
the Chinese Christians, with kind
and friendly aid from their country
men, both here in Honolulu and on
the other islands, have contributed
$1597.55, while a few foreign
friends have kindly given $349.77.
There still remains the sum Of
$4,000, which the Trustees have to
raise TO cover the entire amount of
indebtedness. The Chinese, con-
sidering the depression in all Lines
Of business, have responded most
generously to the appeal made to
them, and later, it is hoped, will do
still more. The church is a mis-
sion church. Many of its members !
are poor, and cannot be expected |
TO meet all the demands which a
growing work makes. Will not the !
friends of the mission of other ma
tionalities, VINO hare so generously |
in other years aided in this import
ant and encouraging work, come
again TO our help? Any donations
to aid in removing the debt men
toned above, will be most CRATE
fully received by the Trustees and
all the members of the church.
Subscriptions can be sent to Mr.. J.
I. Waterhouse, Jr., Treasurer ; to

ICES,

THE GERMAN PLAY.
It Attracts Large Audience to
the College.

The entertainment at Punahou
last night drew large audience,
in spite of the uncertainty of the
weather. The piece de resistance
of the evening was the German
play, Singvogelchen, light song
comedy, or Liederspiel, which was
given by pupils of Miss Hasforth.
The caste was as follows:
Nettchen, Blumenhandlerin $1,000.
..............A Ada r. Whitney
Freidel, Charlottesville. ..
........ ............... VIM. r. Castle, Jr
Lord Mickelby- ......... Clifton Tracy
Box, sein Kammerdiener.....-.....
......... 1900. w M. ID. Rice
Ort der Handling: Fine Crosse
Stadt.
Decoration: Nettchens Blumen-
Geschaft.
The scene of the play is sup
posed to be somewhere in Germany.
An English lord, faded, wan and
unspeakably weary, as all properly
made English lords are supposed
to be, is annoyed by the musical
propensities Of a young gardener
and a flower girl, above whom he
lodges. He sets his intellect to
work to stop their noise, first with
coin, then with love, which some
one has told him makes it's victims
silent, and finally with jealousy.
The last works. The youthful gar
dener and his beloved flower girl are
visited by jealousy, and squirm in
silence. This is the tragic climax
of the play. Fortunately, remorse
in the bosom of the lord comes to
the rescue of the agonized pair.
Under his immaculate shirtbosom
this scion of an ancient house feels
what the Germans call conscience
bites" He sallies forth, rushes into
the flower shop, and, as an act of
he puts the German
language to ten minutes of linger-
ing torture, during which he ex-
plains by what wicked articles he
has planted the seeds of jealousy
in their bosoms. The young couple |
catch on, and love spreads his |
wings over the reunited pair.
This is not a profound action,
but it has what Aristotle requires
for every dramatic action, "a be-
ginning, middle and end" IL is
not without humorous opportuni-
ties, which were improved. All the
acquitted themselves
and the performance
was completed without anything
occurring TO mar it. Miss Ada
and w. r. Castle, Jr., the
no songsters, were warmly re-
while Clifton Tracy and
VIM. RI. Rice, as the lackadaisical
ord and lackadaisical valet, earned
. generous share of appreciation.
The entertainment was closed

THE CHINESE TREATY.
Discussed in Executive Session by
Senator's.

Washington, April THE Senate
considered the Chinese treaty Indirect
ly for two hours in executive session
this evening on a motion by Senator
Mitchell, of Oregon, to debate the
treaty in open session, but without ac-
complishing anything.
There was more or less inciIantaI
reference to the merits Of he treaty
as such, but the debate turned largely
upon the propriety of discussing the
question with open ;Ioo"s, SO the world
at large might know what had trans
p1red and the senators favorable to this
proposition consumed the greater part
OF the time of the session.
Senators Mitchell, Perkins and Stew
art were the principal speakers. They
based their argument upon the import
.ance OF the subject to their conStitu-
.ents, and dwelt upon the injustice of
such an enactment as that proposed
without giving the people who were so
largely interested full information as. to,
the reason for the proceedings. They
displayed more or less feeling over the
iqueStion.
Senator Perkins said the country is
at present in great distress, and stated
that there were $4,000 white men out Of
employment in California. 1t would be
q great injustice at any time, and es-
pecially at such time as the present, to
open the doors to Chinese immigration.
as this treaty would do if ratified by
| the Senate. He said it would nuIlify
all the anti-Chinese legislation of the
lpast ten years if accepted in it's present
shape, and he thought the country
ishould know these facts and hear the
arguments in favor of the treaty
| Senator Mitchell, who is an advocate
of open sessions on all occasions, spoke
very much in the same strain, but
elaborated on the propriety of consider
ing the treaty in open session.
/ Senator Stewart wanted the widest
publicity in discussing the subject, and
lspoke in general terms about the I'M
Idesirability of the Chinese imrnigra ton.
Senator Chandler asked him if it
would not be in the interests of silver
lff relations could be established with
China which would extend the COM
lmerce of the United States in that
Icountry, whereupOn the Nevada SEN
lator branched off into a somewhat gen.
leraI discussion of silver.
Senators Morgan, Gray and Palmer
IAN spoke briefly on the other side of
1.-THE question, devoting themselves main
lily to the general merits of the treaty.

Reno. New, April THE California
contingent of Coxey's commonweaI
army, consisting of 1000 men, passed
through Reno this morning. The train
bearing the industrials eastward was
comprised of twenty-five cars, two of
which contained supplies. About thirty
recruits, some of whom have left work
to join the army, were waiting at the
depot to board the train, but the cars
were drawn through so rapidly that no
one could either get on or off and these
men were disa ppointed.
At White Plains, the train halted
and the men breakfasted. 1t is ex-
pected they will cross the state line
tonight.
About noon a man claiming to be
major-general Of the industrial army
and a youth who styles himself lieu
tenant-general E. F. White, arrived
ION the passenger train from Sacra-
|mento, expecting to find the army here.
They assumed command of the Reno
delegation and are soliciting money
from citizens, and making arrange
ments to catch the train carrying the
Californians before it reaches ogden.

Cincinnati, April miss Pollard is

Butterworth today. "She can simulate

opinion that this is but the prelude to
her going on the stage. l cannot out

Guthrie, o. T.,April News reached
here today of a terrible tragedy en-
acted at the Baptist Mission college
at Wewaka, the capital city of the
Seminole Indian nation. There are a
large number of Indian boys and some
white boys in the institute, ranging in
age from ten to twenty. For some
time there has been a bitter feeling
against an Indian boy named Frank
Short, by a number of the students,
which was intensified during the past
week by Short resenting several mis-
deeds. On Thursday night, after all
had retired in the dormitory on the
third floor, three boys stole to Shorts
bed, picked him up and threw him
from the window to the ground. The
fall injured him, from which he has
finally died. The three guilty boys
escaped and have not yet been appre-
hended

Nicaragua Canal.

Opinion of Prominent Men on the
Nicaragua Canal
Boston, April 1.-The Traveller, of
this city, which has been an earnest
advocate of the Nicaragua canal, re-
Gently sent out letters to the governors
of the various states and the more
prominent members of Congress, ask
ing their opinions of the value OF the
canal to this country and whether or
not the government should construct
and control the waterway. Answers
have been received from thirty-one
governors and forty members OF Con
gress and are printed today.
The governors of the southern states,
without exception, either favor the
government building and owning the
canal outright or extending aid to
whatever corporation builds it.
Governor Waite, of Colorado, says:
THE United States government, in
conjunction with the Central Ameri-
can republics, should build the canal
at national expense"
Governor McGrew, Of Washington,
believes that the United States should
construct, own and operate the canal
Governor Hogg, of Texas, takes very
pronounced grounds against the United
States fostering such enterprises,
while under private control. He says:
L
eign private interference with the
canal and should construct, own and
operate it itself"
Governor Lewelling, of Kansas, de-
clares it desirable that the United
States own and operate the canal as
the exclusive property of the United
States.
Congressman Bynum, of Indiana;
Washington, of Tennessee; and Kilgore,
Bell and Abbott, of Texas, declare
heartily in favor of its construction
but say they would not vote for any
measure which would pledge the
United States to guarantee the bonds
of any private corporation. Senators

gan; Perkins, of California; Dolph and

son for the plaintiff. All the speeches
were on the legal points involved in
the prayers, and the counsel agreed
that in some respects the case was a
unique one. The argument was signifi-
cant in showing that the defense does
not intend to set up as a legal plea
that any of the promises made by Col
oneI Breckenridge to Miss Pollard were
under duress exercised by her with a
pistol.
Judge Bradley reserved his decision
on the instructions until Monday. al
though he intimated he could grant one
of the prayers for the plaintiff, and
said in speaking of another prayer:
q see no reason to change my opin-
ion that the existing marriage at the
time he made the promise, if he made
it, is no defense"
The length of the arguments was a
matter discussed by the judge and at
|torneys, and while Judge Bradley
thought five hours for a side would be
sufficient the lawyers wanted more
time.

1t Causes "A Short Debate in the
Senate.
Washington. April This is the first
Saturday session of the Senate during
the regular session of Congress.
There was some expectancy in the
Senate that the opposition to the tariff
might be manifested in a manner sim
liar to that Of yesterday, but the jour-
nal was read and approved and routine
business progressed with few interrupt
tions.
Senator Hoar called the attention Of
Senator Morgan to a dispatch in the
morning papers, saying that the Brit
.lSh parliament had passed an act in
tended to carry out the provisions of
the award of the Bering sea tribunal,
but according to which ships which
might have sailed without knowledge
of the passage of the bill should not be
liable to seizure. He thought, if the
dispatch correctly reported the text of
the parliament BILL it was simply an
evasion of the principles of the awards
Of the Paris tribunal. He asked Mr.
Morgan as to the truth of the dispatch,
and if it was true some supplemental
legislation should be passed by Con-
gress.
Mr.. Morgan explained that some
weeks ago Sir Julian PauncefOte, the
British ambassador, had submitted to
the state department the draft of an
act of parliament, which. to the best
! of his recollection, correspondent exact
/ ly with the language of that quoted in
the dispatch. There were some fea-
lures Of the proposed act which were
opposed Che used the word advisedly).
to the fair Interpretation of the awards
and those provisions of the proposed

ment was so informed. About the same
time he learned from Uhe newspapers
that a bill had been introduced into par
4 lament for the purpose of giving ef-
/ feet to the award of the Paris tribunal,
but whether it correspondent with that
submitted by Sir Julian Pauncefote to
the state department he did not know
Shortly afterwards he learned that the
bill had been withdrawn for the pur-
pose of remodeling it and he still hoped
that such was fact and that the text
contained in the dispatch was that
of the unamended bill which mad been

Uniontown, Pa, April THE strik-
ers are jubilant over the result of the
convention at Scottsdale today, and
are generally getting drunk on the
strength of it. They are making great
preparations for tomorrow, when they
say the strike will be begun again.
They say not a plant. will be allowed
to operate on Monday. A march of all
the Hungarians from this end of the
county to Mount Pleasant on Monday
morning for the purpose of forcing the
men out at all the plants by which
they pass, will be attempted and there
may be trouble. Tomorrow a big mass
meeting of all the Huns in this section
will be held at Mountain View park,
for the purpose of arranging for this
raid. A general invitation to the Hun
garian element has been issued and at
least 1000 people will be present.
