farce of the dissolution of the whisky

from among the many as being those
in which the wisdom Of a ngr

degenerates engaged in them, the
schedule was reached by the senators
embracing those who work in flax. 1t
includes the farmer who sows the seed
and reaps the flax for it's seed and, in

The place once occupied by the school
was rescued from its former wild state
only by persistent effort. The rocks
were all cleared, trees were set out,
and the spacious center of the quad
rangle, around which are the cot
taees for the 122 boys, has been turfed
over. The greater part of the turf
was brought a distance of nearly a
mile. tt is neatly trimmed and well
watered. The garden plot in the rear
Of the main building is now under cul-
tivation.
The Baldwin School now has band.
Professor Berger organized the band
six months ago on previous trip, and
a concert was given yesterday. The in
struments were donated. The IA mem
hers of the band were applauded for
their music. The only thing the mem
bers. regret is that they haven't suits.
The band members at Kalaupapa have
suits. the money for which was gen
erously subscribed by residents of Ho-
nolulu. new suits for the entire band,
comprising a white cap, white suit and
serge suit, would cost about 5000.
President Smith, of the Board in
thanking the boys for their music,
promised to call the attention of the
public to their need through the news
papers. Subscriptions to such a fund,
if left at any of the local Newspaper Of
fees. will be forwarded and due credit
given.
The Board then inspected the nur-
sery and gardens, where experiments
are being made in the growth of trees.
There is little or no firewood in the
settlement, and very few trees of any
description. Some 5000 trees, raised
from seed, are now growing in the
nursery and in the gardens, and it is
probable that in a few years time
there will be no scarcity of firewood if
the different families devote a small
amount, but continued care to their
growth.
The party returned to the house at
Kalaupapa, where lunch was served.
Later in the afternoon the Board held
q meeting. and at o'clock the party
left for Honolulu.

There's a flutter of flags and streamers
In afar-off Hawaii's Isle today;
And loud. in Honolulu's sunlit street,
Is the rattle of drums and the tramp
of feet.
.'Tis a day of bright blossoms and mem
cries sweet,
Which here, in Hawaii, all nations
will greet;
AS they mingle together, alike to per-
fume
The warriors grave and the citizens
tomb.
And wherever, today, sleeps Americas
brave,
"A wreath is descending for every
grave,
AS if Gods good angels, in many a
crown,
Had woven the garlands and showered
them down.
Flowers of magnolia the South bring
eth forth,
And twines them, today, with the rose
of the North;
While here, in these beautiful Isles of
the Sea,
Flora's treasures unstinted are placed
tenderly.
And should there be found, in some
lonely spot
A mound yet unmarked, the marble
forgot,
tbs there, with sigh, we may ten
derby lay
A memorial of love, in sweet flowers
of May.
But, if is forgotten, some mound on
the hills,
A grave aforementioned, some I'M
known hero fills,
God above it viii hang, when the night
curtain lowers
A star-spangled banner sublimer than
ours.
