THE QUEEN OF SEASONS.

A Glorious Easter Day Devoutly OBJ
served in ALI the Churches With
Beautiful Music and Lovely
Flowers.
Yesterday was most notable
Easter Day for Honolulu for pro-
badly never before in it's history
have the churches Of the Christian
faith OF all creeds and denomina-
tions, into which it is unhappily
divided, been 80 thronged with
worshippers, or the music more
beautiful and elaborate and the
floral decorations so tasteful and
profuse,
While the palm for beauty and
simplicity and correctness OF the
Easter ideal of lilies and white
blossoms with palms and ferns must
be unbegrudgingly and sans ranc,'ne
be awarded to Central Union
Church, that for the musical services
is not 30 easy to bestow, and the
self-appointed judges can only
speak in the highest terms of praise
Of the three leading efforts; those
at the Roman Catholic Cathedral,
St. Andrews Cathedral, especially
the Second Congregation, and the
Central Union Church. They were
all different in character but all as
near perfection as it is practicable
in Honolulu. Perhaps, although it
may be deemed indiscreet by some
to say so, the true Catholicity of
Christian sentiment and doctrine
enunciated yesterday from pulpit,
congregation and choir of the Cen
trail Union Church was surprisingly
observable, and that church made
many friends among attending non
members.

THE RACES.
The New Associations Meet Great
Success.


Success
The races last Saturday afternoon
were great success, in spite OF the
circumstances which have hampered
the promoters during the past weeks.
The track was in an excellent con-
ditiop, the weather was pleasant
and big gathering of fashionable,
sportive and curious people took
place.
The seats on the grand stand were
all occupied, and the stand gener-
ally used by the Jockey Club was
crowded. The private stands were
used by the owners, among whom
were Mr. Wilder and family, Mr.. j.
Boyd and family, and Mr.. w. g. IT.
win and party OF friends.
The judges and other officers OF
the day acted with discretion and
used good judgment in carrying out
their duties. No "family races" were
permitted, the promoters being anx-
ious that everything should work
smoothly and no Jobs" allowed.
About one thousand people wit
messed the races, which did not start
until 2 O'Clock. The band under
Professor Berger was in attendance
and was stationed on the grand
stand annex. Refreshments were
served during the afternoon under
the grand stand and in the Jockey
Club stand.
We briefly record the events Of
the meet:
First Race-One-mile dash for
professional bicycle riders. A time
limit was set at 2:25. Jones, Sylvia,
Sylvester and Jackson started but
none of them was able to make the
time prescribed. The limit was
then raised to 2:35, and on the Sec
ond trial Jones won the race in 2:29a
with Sylvester second.
Second Race-s.mile running for
Hawaiian horses. A very poor start
was made, which resulted in Joe
Daniels winning in 80; Fashion
coming in as a handsome second.
The owner of Fashion has obtained
young mare which, at the next
meet, will make record and do
credit to her sire, Senator Stanford
and her dam, Fiarna. Fashion has
the same gait as Antidote and Roy
alist, and will get there some day.
The Third Race was watched with
great deal Of interest, as heavy
betting had taken place during the
past week. The starters we're Violin,
Irish Lassie, and Kaiulani. Violin
was driven by j. Quinn and was a
favorite in town and on the track
The pretty mare was not worked
sufficiently and appeared too feshy
altogether. Quinn, who drove her
did not allow the grass to grow un-
der her feet, and Jack Gibson, hold
ing the ribbons over Irish Lassie,
made Violin keep time by pushing
Irish Lassie under the wire in 2:28
Violin a close second. Kaiulani wa,
distanced, but she is one of the
coming horses, if the time made by
her in the first quarter counts fol
anything. A large amount OF dough
was dropped in this race. For par
ticulars ring up 290.
Fourth Race-Half-mile dash, free
for all. Royalist, Twinkle and Joe

The young man of the period was at

James, he said, "liow is it out?''

"warm, sir; very waPm,'' answered

young man of the period, which was a

4 STATE MINING EXHIBIT.

The Western Mining World, one
of the most influential mining journ-
ais in America is in favor of per-
manent state mining exhibit, where
may be seen the ores. maps and
statistical data of every mining
camp in the state. 1t recommends
that the Montana exhibit at Omaha
be taken as nucleus of such collec-
tion, and that legislative support be
granted sufficient to make tho dis
play wholesale and general. An
excerpt from its interesting article is
herewith presented:
Permission for the contemplated
collection Of Montana minerals
should be made with a liberal out
look as to the future of the mining
innustry of the state. 1t should be
a comprehensive exhibit, 80 that it
would perform Il perfect commenta-
ry on the mining districts of the
state and explain all that is known
of the ores and of the methods Of de-
position Of the precious metals.
a stranger to the state, who may
have heard great deal of our prom
inent mining camps, such as Basin,
Whitehall, Virginia City, Neihart,
Castle, Gilt Edge, Philipsburg, Po-
ny or Butte, might reasonably infer
that because gold is produced in
each of these sections, the ores
would be similar, when, in fact, no
representative sample from one sec
ton would be found TO be at all
like the ore of another section.
A comprehensive exhibit would
emphasize this fact and not only aid
ali intelligent observers in forming
correct ideas of the different charac-
toristics and appearances Of the
ores, but would be practically inval,
liable to the student and scientist,
interested in the structure and Pc
culiar mode of occurrence Of the
ores, as we'll as to the practical
worker seeking information as to
where he may find such ores as are
amenable to the system of treatment
with which he may be most familiar
