at cost. 1t is probable night class will
be conducted in this room.
The Assembly Hall is 5S-47 feet, and
will be used as a school room, where
the classes will assemble, as well as an
art hall. 1t already contains some val
liable paintings and etchings, and more
will be added as circumstances permit
1t is in this hall that the handsome
organ presented by Mrs. s. N. Castle
as memorial to her husbad has been
placed. On one side and directly in
| front of the organ is raised platform
on which the teachers desk is placed.
Arranged as in the United States Sem
ate are the handsome oak desks for the
pupils. Recitation rooms open into the
/ Assembly Hall on two sides.
The rooms for various branches are
appropriately furnished for the differ
ent studies. The senior class room walls
have relief maps of every portion of
the globe, and study in geography is
facilitated by them.
An astronomical observatory in the
dome of the college is complete in every
detail as to instruments. The spherical
top may be- opened in any direction for
the observation of the heavens. 1t is
an exact reproduction of the one at
Lick Observatory.
The extreme dimensions of the build
ing are 104x70 feet, under which is
basement with cement floor. A room in
it will be devoted to manual training,
and eventually another will be used as
a gymnasium.
But this latter will be for mere tenn
porary use, as it is expected one SINH
lar to that of the Y. NJ. G. A. will be OBJ
tanned and a building erected especial
ly for it.
The building throughout is lighted
by electricity and has electric clocks

The electroliers and fixtures were Sc
lected by Professor Hosmer from the

The grounds, under the supervision
of Mr. Barwick, are kept in excellent
condition and showed last night the
! result of his care and attention. The
entire furnishings of the building, ar

who has assiduously worked to make
the College a perfect educational insti-
tuition in every detail.

the increasing needs Of the boarding de-
partment. the second floor of the school
hall be made into a boys dormitory,
and that an academic hall be erected.
THE suggestion assumed concrete
form and was referred to the building
and grounds committee to prepare a
preliminary sketch. On the 22d of May
following such sketch was presented
and prizes of $500, 5000 and 500 were
authorized for plans and designs OF a
building not to exceed $4,000 in cost.
In August lie trustees met at Punahou
and decided to locate the new building
where it now stands, facing the interior
of the quadrangle. At meeting, on the
10th of January, 1894, Mr.. Hosmer pre-
sented plans and drawings of the archi-
tects competing for the prizes, of Mr..
Bodwell, who designed the Central
Union Church, of Messrs. Smith and
Freeman, architects of the Bernice Pau
ahi Museum and Kamehameha Hall, Of
San Francisco, and of Ripley and Rey-
nolds of Honolulu, who offered two sets.
A committee was appointed to award
the prizes. and on the Sth of February
reported in favor of Ripley and Rey-
nolds for the first and second. and
awarded the third prize to Messrs.
Smith and Freeman. Each design car
ried out the idea of solid stone pier
rising from the foundation to the tower
to carry a telescope and thus insure
comparative stability in an elevated OBJ
servatory. To get suggestions and
criticisms of the alumni, patrons of
Punahou and others, the plans and
drawings were put on exhibition in the
rear office of the Hawaiian Safe Deposit
and Investment Co., where they were
examined and criticised by many, and
the trustees are indebted to their
friends for useful suggestions. March
I'd. Mr.. C. M. Cooke was by vote an
nexed to the committee on plans and
became at once most active and useful
member. May 29th, the committee on
plans was constituted the building
committee. 1t consisted of Messrs.
Hosmer, Hyde, Cooke and Castle. The
work of digging for the foundations was
taken in hand by the committee and
was thoroughly and well carried on un-
The Hawaiian gazette. [volume] (Honolulu [Oahu, Hawaii]) 1865-1918, 1896-05-22

The building is one of the handsom-
est in the Islands and is as substantial
as it is artistic in design. The plans
were evolved from the brain of c. B.
Ripley, and the edifice reflects unlimited
credit upon him. A glance at the build
ing creates suspicion of semi-Ori-
entalism in the design, and the effect,
placed as the building is in the center
the large campus, is most pleasing.
1t is constructed of gray lava rock
quarried on the Judd premises, Manoa
Valley, and better selection both as to
quality and color of the material could
not have been made.
Arthur Harrison, the contractor of
the stonework, and Messrs Dali, AL
vein and Douglas for the carpenter
work, have built for themselves in this
instance monument which will stand
forever to their credit as artisans.
The main entrance to the building is
from the campus by a broad stone stair
way, at the head of which is terrace
with stone railing fashioned somewhat
after grillwork design in squares of
stone On either side are yestibules
with staircases leading to the auditori-
um on the second floor.
Entrance to the rooms ON the first
floor is had by short, broad stairway.
At the terrace a view is had of a wall,
on which will be fixed as soon as COM
pleted handsome mural tablet with
an appropriate inscription showing the
building is gift from Hon. Charles r.
Bishop.
Another entrance to the building is
on the mauka side, directly opposite the
Bishop Hall of Science, and this will be
used by the pupils. The rooms in the
building are large, well ventilated and
convenient. The library may be said to
have two rooms, as from the large or
main room is an aIcove about quarter
the size. 1t contains about 5000 vol
umes, arranged in cases extending from
the wall, and on the top of each is
placed large plaster cast. In this
room is also bust of Mr.. Bishop, mod
eled from life by Alan Hutchinson. The
walls are adorned by number of pic

After another selection by the glee
club, Hon. w. r. Castle delivered the
keys of the building to President Hos
mer: Mr.. Castle spoke as follows:
THE pleasant duty of delivering the
new school building, 'Pauahi Hail. to
the Trustees of Oahu College has been
assigned to me as an originl member Of
the building committee.
1.-The needs of Punahou have grown
faster than the means to supply them.
The trustees, the faculty and patrons
have desired that in all things the
school should keep pace with the
growth of educational ideas. But the
necessity of maintaining boarding
department has in some ways Interior
ed with the growth of our academical
side. So our first improvements were
the building of a girls dormitory,
erecting the Presidents house and other
changes made necessary by the mex
orable hand of decay.
1t is to the noble generosity and wise
foresight of Honorable Charles R.
Bishop that we are indebted for the
Bishop Hall of Science, and now for the
beautiful building suited in all its parts
for the best work of education.
For many years the need has been
felt of a general hall for school pur-
poses, of recitation and lecture rooms
suited to the varied requirements of a
broad curriculum, of modern facilities
for a library, and this has often been
discussed. But only recently has the

architect on May 10Th, 1894. The plan
settled upon for the building may be
Called compromise between Ripley
for the hall was discussed at the first
meeting of the committee, 'Punahou,'
Berenice' and 'Pauahi' being suggested.
The contract for stone work was
awarded to Mr.. Arthur Harrison, that
for carpenter work to Messrs. Dell,
Douglas and Allwein, and Mr. Emme-
leuth contracted for the plumbing
Many specimens of stone were examin7
ed and the committee finally adopted a
fine, compact gray stone found just at
the entrance to Manoa Valley 1t has
produced the handsomest appearance
by far of any building erected with do
nestle stone, and its solid, compact
formation indicates that it will be i'm
pervious to water.
October LIST, 1895, Messrs. Dole and
Damon were placed on the building
committee in place of Messrs. Cooke
and Castle, who we're absent in the
United States. The stone work was fin
ished in October, 1895, and the carpen-
tiers laid aside their tools in February,
1896.
THE building committee recommend
ed to the trustees that the hall be fur
nished and prepared for use, and it has
been done. so that as delivered this
evening it is ready for occupation at
once
Except the Lord build the house,
they labor in vain that build it, is
saying as old as King David. 1t is true
today and of this house. The object of
the trustees in its erection, of Mr..
Bishop in making it possible, and it
was the life long desire of another now
gone, who served for many years as
treasurer of the college, in whose mem
ory this organ has been placed here,
The Hawaiian gazette. [volume] (Honolulu [Oahu, Hawaii]) 1865-1918, 1896-05-22

that Punahou should always furnish
the best education. This hall is erected
in furtherance of that purpose. 1t has
been equipped with every appliance to
foster and encourage study and the
search for truth. 1t is here that the
soul should learn a high aspiration,
that the mind and body should be
trained for the best service. If this end
is not accomplished, then indeed have
they labored in vain who built it.
TO you, President Hosmer, and to the
Faculty of Oahu College, on behalf Of
the Trustees and of the holy cause of
education, is now delivered this build
ing, and with it you are charged with
the duty of making the name of Pau
ahi Hall illustrious in the maintenance
OF its noble purpose"
In accepting the trust President Hos
mer said:
I'm behalf of the teachers and stu
dents, we thank you, sir, for the trust
that you have placed in our hands. We
accept it, and to its fulfilment, with an
appreciation of the responsibilities that
come with increased facilities we pledge
our earnest efforts.
'"'The thought has often come to me,
and it has especially impressed me dur
ing the last few days, how much Oahu
College owes to the kind friends of the
past who have been raised up at the
times of our necessities.
How much we owe to the Rev. Dan
iel Dole, who brought with him stores
of learning, an atmosphere of refine
ment and culture, who came here tt
