ARRANGEMENTS FOR THE PUBLIC
TOMORROW.
Mrs. Along will Superintend the Dec
orations of the Ball Room-Prepar-
ing for the Great Event.

Arrangements for the flag raising
are pretty well advanced at the Exc
cutive building. The platform for the
officials has been completed and it
only remains to decorate it with flags
and bunting. This platform is built
out on a level with the first landing
of the steps leading to the main en-
trance of the building, covering most
of the first fight of steps and extend
ing outwards about twenty feet. 1t
is forty feet in length at the front.
There will be seven rows of seats on
either side, with nine chairs in a row,
and in the rear two rows of seats on
either side, with twelve chairs in ALL
These seats are for officials.
In the rear of this platform and on
either side of the steps on the grass
plots are driven a couple of stakes,
to which halyards will be attached.
On the right of the steps will be sta
toned a color sergeant and squad of
the National Guard of Hawaii. in
charge of the Hawaiian flag, and on
the other side a color sergeant and de-
tail of the L. S. S. Philadelphia in
charge of the American colors.
On the outer sides of these flag de-
tails on the grass plots on both sides
of the steps will be placed tables for
the press. The position is some ten
feet below the platform and thirty
feet in the rear of the speakers. From
this position it will be difficult for the
newspaper representatives to either
see or hear.
On each of the balconies will be
placed all the chairs that can be put
on them, about 500. On the right and
left of the platform and fronting the
grass plots have been placed rows of
benches. which will be rallied in.
These seats and those on the balco-
are reserved, but at 10 o'clock this
morning they were nearly all taken,
though scarcely half dozen personal
applications were made the hour pre-
vious.
Nothing has yet been done towards
decorating the ball room. Mrs.
Along was asked by the President to
take charge of the work. 1t is un-
derstood that she and her daughters,
with other volunteers, will commence
decorating this afternoon.
The electric lighting has been Civ
en- to the direction of Major Potter.
4 force of men from the Electric
Light Works were attaching the
globes to the wires this morning, and
everything is expected to be ready
for a trial tonight. An immense red,
white and blue shield over the main
entrance will be prominent feature.
As at present arranged this will be
the disposition of the troops: The
| United States forces will occupy the
main avenue fronting the stand while
the National Guard will be given the
| space on either side of the stand.
The Citizens Guard, Sharpshooters'
Grand Army and kindred organiza-
tions will be assigned stations as
near the stand as possible Whatever
space remains may be occupied by the
general public without restriction of
\ any kind.

DRAWS THE COLOR LINE.
An Attorney Says Distinction il Made
Between Races,

An Attorney Says Distfnction Ia Ma,,.
Between Races.
Inc Color line was drawn this morning
by Attorney Frisby in Police Court at tn.
trial OF a small colored boy named George
Green. Judge Taylor, before whom the
trial was In progress, said no attorney
could make this distinction in his court
with the expectation that he would pay any
attention to 1t. Policeman Santmeyer of
the fifth precinct who had made the ar
rest. explained to the court that George
was In crowd of white and colored BOYS
when he arrested him. He took Green into
CUSTODY because he was the only one he
heard use bad language
Green made a statement in his own be-
nail. He admitted that he was in the
crowd and said he wanted the police to ar
rest one OF the white boys but he refused
to do it.
What kind of boy Is Georee?, the at
torney asked the boys mother

Il know none of them Is an angel" said
the attorney.
"All boys are bad now" added Mrs.
Green, but George amt the worst one
in the world
Now. your honor" said Attorney Frisby.
girls the time viii soon come when they win
all be convicts. 1t Is a notorious fact that
the police allow white children to 60 free
and arrest colored ones
This condition of affairs" he said, must
be stopped. 1t is the subject OF almost
daily complaint and our ministers are dis
cussing it in the pulpits"
In conclusion the attorney asked that his
client be released on his own recognizsnce
Judge Taylor said he was sorry to have
the color line raised in court, for, as far as
he knew, there was no occasion for it.
THE color line" the Judge said, "is in
variably drawn by the colored man. 1
think that the colored people are protect
ed as well as the whites"
The court Informed the attorney that 1t
is not the color, but what is in a man. that
makes the man. He said he had concluded
to take the boys personal bonds before
counsel had spoken, and he would not
change his mind. The boy was thereupon
released on his personal bonds
