in time or have to be pulled down, is
not known.
Excavations for the foundation We're
made fully 80 feet down. and then piles
we're driven into the ground, and piles
driven upon them Then came innum-
cradle layers of cement, concrete and

laid over the concrete. In that manner
was the foundation laid, but it was not
firm enough. Where the trouble is, Of
course, cannot be learned, but it is sur
missed that some Of the piles are sink

they were driven. The federal building
became so insecure upon it's foundation
that it had to be pulled down, but the
swampy condition of the ground was
not entirely TO blame for the Wrecking
of this building, as it was a poor piece
of construction at the best.

IN LAVENDER.

The crumbing dust that once was bloom,
And watts Of summer sweetness creep
Like wandering ghosts to haunt the room.
And straight with dreaming eyes see,
In homely gaEb Of russell brown,
The maid whose fingers robbed the bee
To strew with sweets her wedding gown.
Fairer than any flower that blows
With bright face lifted TO the day,
Led on by blessed thoughts, she goes
Smiling along the garden way.
This lilies cluster on the stalk,
The sucking bees make merry rout
Among the thyme beside the walk
And beds with wailfowers set about.
The sunshine fills the broodinR sky,
The birds their nesting rapture speak,
And little careless winds 90 by
With warm, light touches ON her check.
Her apron gathered on my arm,
Her dainty fingers cleaning slow,
She walks In youths eternal charm,
This little maid Of long ago.
And none but those who love can guess
What thoughts her quiet pulses stir
Or what dear hopes her visions bless
Among the beds Of lavender.

A JAPANESE VIEW
MikadO's Representative at Hone
lulu Does Not Like the An
swer of Hawaii
To His Request for a Reason for
the Exclusion Of Japanese
Immigrants.
If He Doesn't Get a Different Re
ply He May Leave the
Island.

SAN Francisco, June 1.-The steam
ship Mariposa brings advices from the
Hawaiian capital, supplemental to those
brought by the steamship Peru on Mon
day last.
May -, the day the Peru left the
island, the government announced that
its answer to Japan's demands had been
sent to the japanese minister.
Minister S~himamula is not at all salts
fled with the reply made by the Hawai-
ian foreign office. In an interview upon
the subject he said: Il do not consider
what | have received to be an answer to
my request for particulars. and | will
make another attempt to secure one.
Japan asks nothing unreasonable. She
wants justice and fairness, nothing else.
If she cannot get it, well l do not know
what will follow. The action of the
Hawaiian government in refusing land,
ing to people who, Japan believed, after
investigation made before their de.
parture, were eligible to land was a
gross violation of the treaty. Now
have asked for an explanation for ,rea.
sons for this governments action. and
am told that the position taken by the
Hawaiian government is that immigra-
ton laws are reasonable and that the
administration had impartially enforced
them. / cannot find it in this. | dc
not think that my government Is acting
arbitrarily i'll this matter which involves
the honor of the nation.
ri, u-& S.s. 4l;.l
The United States has been advised OF
the affair and probably knows the Statu,
of the case as we'll as we do, and if the
government at Washington believes the
position taken by Japan is right, &C
cording TO international law, ther,
would be no interference. On the othel
hand, if our position is arbitrary, any
nation may interfere.
Japan understands that there is ;
tacit understanding that the United
States has an interest here; tina
while not assuming the proportion
of a protectorate, she stands i'll ma
ture of a gOdmOther to the island re
public, but officials of the United State
government are too well verse2 in TIN
custom of dealing with questions of in
t%ernational law to say Japan is wrong i
she is right, or that Hawaii is right i
she is wrong. My instructions i'll tn
matter are plain. If | cannot get a rea
sonable answer to my request | may &
home, and perhaps someone else viii
have better success. If | withdraw yo1
know what will follow. l hope that i
will not reach that point.
