j.. TakedZawa, agent for the Hol<o-
festivities. He sat at the center of
the table with member of the con-
sulate on either side of him. At the
head of the table sat Minister Resident
II. Shimamura.
The toastmaster, in opening the GER
emonies, stated that they had gath
cred to celebrate the promotion of the
consulate, not so mucn because of the
honor conferred upon Mr.. Shimamura
but because their Government recog-
nized the Importance of the japanese
colony in Hawaii.
Mr.. Shimamura followed with an
eloquent address II his native tongue.
He stated that Japan was proud of
her subjects on the Hawaiian Islands
and that the action of the japanese
Congress in establishing a legation
here was convincing proof that the
Japanese colony of Hawaii was fully
recognized. The Minister Resident eX-
pected to receive his proper creden-
tials by the next steamer from the
Orient. He sincerely thanked his
people for their thoughtfulness in eel
ebrating such an important event and
commended them for their loyalty to
their country.
Among the guests present We're: p
Takedzawa, X. Watanabe, S. Ozaki, DR.
7. Mori, n. Tgarash, S. Mimura, NJ
Cheyn, T. Murata and X. Ueta. From
the legation were II. Shimamura, 5
Hirai X. Mimash and c. Niikum.
During the banquet the Government
band played japanese airs.

C. L. WIGHT GOES TO HAWAII on
AN IMPORTANT MISSION.
Richest Coffee and Agricultural Lands
in the Island to BE Opened-Plan
for a Hotel at Wamea.

c. l.. Wight, president of the Wilder
Steamship Company, was a passenger
on the Kinau this morning for Hawaii,
whittier he goes to assist in the open
ing of a new road from Waimea
through the new coffee and agricul-
tural district about to be opened by
Sam Parker. Mr.. Parker accompanies
him, with a number of other gentle
men, who are interested. Incidentally
the party have gone prepared for a
grand plover hunt, the last of the sea-
son.
The new district is believed to be
the largest and richest agricultural
district in the island. 1t extends from
the coast up into the foothills, and
covers an area of many square miles.
The soil is rich and productive and
the climatic conditions so varied that
it is adaptable to the growth of the
fruits, vegetables and cereals of both
the temperate zone and the tropics.
In the foothills, where occasional
frosts are experienced, corn, wheat,
oats and barley can be grown. The
low lands are adaptable to the cult
vation of coffee and tropical fruits can
be raised in the valleys.
Mr.. Wight has never before visited
the district. He goes this time at the
invitation of Mr.. Parker, who has full
faith in the steamship mans judg-
ment on land. The proposed road is
to start at Waimea and run back to
the foothills, a distance of six miles
1t will be the main artery that will
open up the entire district and connect
it directly with the sea.
In connection with the opening up
of the new district plans are afoot for
the erection of a large hotel at Wal
mea, and the establishment of a sum
mer resort there. The climatic con
ditions at Waimea are said to be the
best on the island, and that the place
will soon become a favorite summer
and winter resort, once it is opened uI
and properly advertised.
Mr.. Parker expects to show hi:
friends some fine plover hunting. He
is accompanied on the trip by George
Robertson, Godfrey Brown, Harry
Whitney and G. p. Wilder. They will
be gone week and possibly may re
main over a steamer.

INCIPIENT RIOT QCELLED.
Sheriff Carter Holds the Chinese at
Lihue in Check.

Additional particulars of the trouble
at Lihue early in the week were re-
ceived by the steamers ke Au Hou and
James Makee this morning. When the
Makee left Kapaa last Tuesday evening
it was reported that "A serious riot had
taken place. Now it appears that
while serious trouble at that time was
imminent, and seemed unavoidable,
the prompt action of Sheriff Carter in
assembling the police from the sur
rounding town, killed the movement
in its incipiency. The Chinese We're
preparing for another attack, but
when they saw the forces arrayed
against them, wisely decided to desist.
The trial of the Chinese engaged in
the riot of week ago, and arrested by
the Sheriff's posse, was in progress
when the Makee left yesterday after
noon. Only the most mcager report
was obtainable but it appears that all
is now quiet at Lihue. The Chinese
are completely under the control of
the officers, and no further trouble is
anticipated.

and ferns about the room. The table
decorations consisted of red flowers
and candelabra.

DEATH OF AN OFFICER.

Particulars of the death of Com
mander Pritchard have arrived. The
gallant officer was shot while cheering
on and encouraging his men. His
death was instantaneous. The only
thing that can alleviate the sorrow of
his widow is that he fell while doing
his duty and that his death was pain
less. Mrs. Pritchard has received let
ters from the officers of the ship which
Commander Pritchard was in charge
of, expressing their deep sympathy for
the loss she has sustained.

OFFICIALS ON THE LOOKOUT.

Of L lllALS ON l1f4 LOOhoI l.
In a letter to Minister Cooper re-
ceived last week, Attorney General
Smith stated that while in Washing
ton, d. c., he had a conversation with
DR.. Wyman on the black plague. Mr.
Smith learned that a variety or form
of the disease was prevalent in India
and working its way to Japan, which
appeared to have o longer period of
incubation than the ordinary disease.
To guard against the disease, the
United States Marine Hospital service
has placed a quarantine period of fif-
teen days on persons coming from any
port infected with this variety of
plague.

TWO HOURS DEVOTED TO SCHOOLS
AND SCHOOL TEACHERS.
Professor Alexander Finds u Storm
Center Among the School Ma aams-
New Schools for Paama and Waawa


at the meeting of the educational com
yesterday afternoon in the
absence of Minister Cooper. The ses
sion lasted for more than two hours,
but the greater portion of this time
was taken up in hearing a dispute be-
tween school teachers of the fairer sex.
Although the "storm center" as Pro-
fessor Alexander calls it, has been
broken and peace reigns again. the
commissioners have deemed it best to
withhold the facts from the public, for
the time being at least.
Mrs. b. f. dillingham;, Mrs. +. w.
Jordan, w. \. Bowen, II. NJ. Won Holt,
Deputy Inspector General Scott and
Secretary Rodgers participated in the
deliberations of yesterdays meeting.
1t is surprising the numerous APP
plications for positions under the ed
ucational department that are received
from parties residing in all parts of
America and more particularly in the
western portion of the United States.
Every steamer from the coast brings
a batch of applications made direct to
the Board while there are a great
many who apply for places through
friends or relatives living on the
islands The usual number were re-
ferred to the Teachers Committee at
yesterdays meeting. Among them
were the applications of William Beck
with, of the eastern part of the United
States, presented by Professor F. A..
Hosmer of Oahu college; Miss O'Dell,
of Washington State, and William Nc
Cluskey, of Montana. .sF
Harry Austin, of Kauai, was before
the Board in regard to the action of
the commissioners in transferring him
from Kapaa to Hanapepe school. Mr..
Austin desired to retarn to Napaa and
the Board gave its fullest consent pro-
viding the change would be satisfac-
tory to H. H. Brodie, who is the pres
ent principal of the Kapaa school.
J Manager W. j. Lowrie, of Eva plan
the meeting agreeing to supply the
educational department with $4OO
worth of new lumber for the Waawa
school building and lot. No action was
taken.
Mr.. Lenhardt wants more accommo-
dations for the children attending his
school on Kauai. The Inspector Cen
eral will be instructed to investigate
the matter.
The Palama primary school was ord
cred to be established and Mrs. Stev-
ems was employed as teacher at a sal
AIRY of $40 per month. The department
has been assured that there will be
no expense involved for the rent of a
! large dwelling house which will serve
the purpose of school building. The
Minister of Public Instruction will be
requested by the Board, when he is
out of quarantine, to use his best eff
forts to secure sufficient money to
properly equip the building. The new
primary school will probably bo
opened sometime next week. 1t is be-
lieved that between thirty and forty
children will be enrolled.
Miss Julia Taner, who has been
! teaching in Honolulu for several
years, was granted a weeks vacation
in order that she could visit the vol
cano.
Miss Maggie McCorrston, at present
teaching on Kauai, has asked to be
changed TO Honolulu so that she might
be with her friends and relatives.

The ingenuity of some insurance COM
panies in devising ways and means for
evading responsibility is equaled by
nothing ON earth A claim was recently
made against an accident insurance com
pany for indemnity by physician who
had met with an injury in very pecul-
lar fashion He had been i'll as the re-
suit of an accident received some time
previous, but was partly recovered.
While driving he was seized with a
spasm, and great exhaustion overcalne
him. He stopped his horse and proceed
ed to administer a hypodermic injection
of some powerful stimulant to which he
resorted in such emergencies. Just as
he was about to insert the needle his
horse started. The needle was driven
deep into the flesh, inhicting q severe
and painful injury. He sued for indem-
nifty, he being disabled for % weeks.
The judge dismissed the complaint on
the ground that the injury was not
caused through external violent and ac-
cidental means in the intent and pur-
pose Of the policy. This decision will
strike the average thinking individual
as somewhat peculiar If mishap due
to the sudden starting of a horse is not
an accident, it might be interesting to
know how the word could be defined.
