ventst, was arrested, the Court holds that

ment on Sunday, but prohibits only such

Of society.

ventIst, observed Saturday as the Sabbath,
and plowed corn on Sunday, and his arrest

Canada Alarmed by the importation OF
South African Hides.
There Is danger Of the Introduction into
Canada Of the much-dreaded riuderpest For
the convenience of the tanning industry
large quantities Of hides from South Africa,
purchased che.ply In London, are now being
Imported to Canada, and the Government Is
being appealed to, but 80 far without effect,
to havs all the imported hides disinfected or
their importation prohibited. Pleuro-pneu-
monia among Canadian cattle has been
traced to injected hides imported from Eng.
land, and the danger from this disease Is OF
course as nothing compared with the raw
ages that are wrought by the rlnderpest,
which is at present decimating 80 many OF
the herds In South Africa. When the dts
ease last visited England over 70, 600 cattle
were attacked by 1t and 41,000 died. Lead
ing experts In Canada are sounding the
alarm.

people dressed in deep mourning
gathered upon the arrival Of the

that the remains of the deceased
would be on one of the vessels. The

rived during the night. As soon as
the circumstances were reported the
mourners streamed to the dock and
the boys Immediately placed their
services free Of charge TO the crowd
that desired to pay their respects to
the late statesman. Many boatloads

by legal tecbnicalities. He referred
to Nawahi as young man (when he
FIRST knew him) as teacher Of
no ordinary ability, and in his po-
litical life he was supremely honest
in his purpose. He was actuated by
love for the Hawaiian people and
for their advancement, He honored
him for his steadfastness OF purpose
f p. Dole, Charles Creighton,
Alfred Magoon, and W. l.. Stanley
appropriately contributed their en-
dorsements Of the qualities OF the
past members OF the Association.
Hon. l.. A. Thurston, then spoke
frankly aud touchingly few words
in praise OF Nawahi and their joint
political associations. Nawahi's
memory would be honored for the
fact that he and G. w. Pilipo stood
prominently forward as incorrupti-
BILE members OF the many Legisla-
lures in which they had represented
their constituents. No one could
dethrone Nawahi from the love OF
his people. His principles were
based in honor and against corrupt
and improper influences. His love
of country was such that he sacri-
feed personal advancement and
wealth to them. He was one OF the
most striking and picturesque men
in Hawaiian history, and his memory
should ever be honored and cherish
ed by the Hawaiian race for whom
he sacrificed so much.
The Chief Justice, in quiet,
digni6ed conversational manner won
easily the oratorical honors OF the
occasion. He referred to the late
Judge as the oldest son of an at
torney who from the laboring ranks
rose to position in Buffalo, N. Y,
and passed on his main character
istics OF honesty and indefatigable
energy under difficulties to his son.
He spoke of the early positions oc-
cupied by the Judge when he was
the practical Governor of the ISL
and in the early days; of the love
of family possessed by the Austins;
OF the Judges faithful lsbors in
later days. He was an upright,
honest and faithful man in all his
dealings, and was the sole survivor,
except perhaps Judge Hitchcock of
the Bar OF the ,'fifties." The earliest
of the survivors date from the next
decade. In regard to Nawah', he
was very fond OF him. In his youth
be was usually bright, but it WAS
not within his capacity to construct
laws or rules for the guidance of his
country. He was incorruptib'e. No
money ever went into his pocket
dishonesty. He will be remembered
not so much as a lawyer, but as a
born orator who faithfully and fear
lessly believed in doing tho best for
the ascendency Of his race whether
he happened to be absolutely in the
minority or not.
