Germany has declared Its policy
in the Orient. 1t will not attempt
TO secure exclusive trade with the
Chinese, but viii open the port
of Kiao Chau to the commerce
Of all nations, as the British open
ed Hong Kong. This policy will
not seriously antagonize the Brit
ISL. There is no doubt Of the fact
that Great Britain is thoroughly
alive to the dangers of the situation
in the Orient. The leaders of both
political parties are together in
supporting the policy of the Gov
eminent, which is simply to pre-
vent any exclusive occupation of,
or trade with, China by any other
European power The navy has
undoubtedly been placed ON a war
footing. The use of force is high
" improbable in maintaining this
policy. But Great Britain will
take no chances whatever.
The singular feature of these re-
markable moves of the great Pow
ers, that they do not seek en-
pire or glory, but simply trade.
The British seriously threaten
French trade in Tonkin, by the
opening of railway through Siam
and China, and they seriously
threaten Russia in the same way.
Neither nation can complain at
these peaceful invasions. At the
same time, it makes them feel
ugly. 1t is the old game of poker
in the mining camp, where one
party holds four aces, and the other
rises to the occasion with a revol-
yer. But no shots are fired.

AZURE, delivered to large class at the
Y. NJ. C. A. assembly hall yesterday
morning, Miss Cora Mcdonald treated
chiefly of Byron, Shelley and Keats
and their immortal productions. There
was reference to style and to the per-

effect upon the work of each by the

standing Room Only'-An Encore
for Every Number Pleasing
New Talent

The concert in the Y. NJ. c. A. hall
last night was a success from begin
ming to end. Every seat in the large
hall was taken and there was hardly
standing room left. The people were
not kept waiting for the various num-
bers. As fast as one was finished. the
next came on.
The first number on the program was
the ~. NJ. c. A. march" BY the anna
teur orchestra under the direction of
Wray Taylor. This as well as the
other three selections given by the or
ehestra was well done. Mr.. Taylor has
succeeded in getting excellent work ont
of the men whom he leads.
One of the best numbers on the pro
gram was the baritone solo. One heart
divine" by ]. H. Widman who certain
" touched a responsive chord in the
audience. He responded to ? hearty
encore. Mr.. Widman has a fine. rich
voice and sings with a grace and ease
that at once gives his audience full
confidence in his power to carry his
music through to the end without a
flaw. Mr.. Taylor was his accompanies.
a selected piano solo by Miss Alice
Rice was very much enjoyed. Miss
Rice has been heard in Honolulu before
and every time, has done her part

Miss Stella Love was greeted with
rounds of applause as she finished her
recitation. How Ruby played" All
through the difficult piece. the young
lady did not hesitate or fail once. She
simply felt what she recited. An encore
was responded to. Miss Loves voice
is peculiarly suited to recitation.
Mr.. A. A. Maeurda's selected song
with piano accompaniment by Miss
Johnson, was very we'll received. An
encore was demanded

rison treaty and that of Mckinley

million, and since June 18th have add

This startling statement is most
conclusive evidence of the evil iniu-
enee of sea faring life on the vera
city of man.
As We all know, Captain Palmer
with the highest ambition in life TO
become a statesman, entered the fore
castle of a Cape Cod trading ship
many years ago, and never failed TO
appropriate the rich erudition OF his
shipmates in the proper construction
of yarns" 1t is said that one Of his
ideals OF true manhood was the cap
tain, in the novel of 'Midshipman
Easy" who while lying sick in bed,
told one who called on him, that he
had had the death rattle for over six
weeks and it was going on STILL
In all OF the competitive examina-
tons according to forecastle rules,
young Palmer took every prize, if the
absolute suppression of the truth was
"a condition. His ably constructed
falsehoods have made his name a
household word, wherever Truth is
despised. For 80 years, he has been
the honored secretary of the "Amalga-
mated Association of International
Liars" It is said of him, that, in a
seafaring phrase, he had never sailed
within 10 miles of the dangerous
shoals of the Truth
Having picked up the story of the
devotion Of Sir Walter Raleigh TO
Queen Elizabeth, he has shown the
same romantic worship TO the ex-
Queen. AT the same time, he retains
the same harrassing fear of leprosy,
which he exhibited while a visitor in
these Islands, sey eral years ago. 1t
forced him to wear gloves on all oc-
casions, and he constantly carried with
him a bottle of kerosene, out of which
he annointed every article he touched
that had any associations with the ma
tives While his capacity as an unmiti-
gated Liar was appreciated, and his
romantic attachment was not unfavor-
ably received, his inyeterate prejudice
against the Disease was embarrassing.
In imitation of Sir Walter Raleigh, who
threw his gilded coat into the mud so
that Queen Bess should not spoil her
slippers, he threw his pea-jacket on a
muddy street in Washington. so that
Her Majesty might step on it. But
suddenly Influenced by his mortal fear
OF the Disease, he instantly sprinkled
the coat with kerosene. Thereupon
Her Majesty remarked that he was
more tolerable as a liar than as a
courtier or sutton" With tears in his

TAHITI.

An incident in the history of
the Islands of the Pacific has
escaped notice. On December
18th of last year, Il bill was
passed in the French Chamber
and approved by the President
annexing Tahiti to the French
Republic. The protectorate is
ended. There is therefore more
French soil in the Pacific. The
is not significant
fact. Ii is doubtful if the
French have found profit or
pleasure in the possession of
the island. Its commerce is Of
little value. The theory ON
it is held is probably
that ii may prove to be useful
in the future, in the growing
trade of the Pacific.

education, when the tendency is 10
crowd students, without much regard
TO their physiological or psychological
condition, there is pleasure in observ-
Tg course OF study that is rational,
and sufficient in many ways for the
average higher education. \ glance at
the pages Of this course of study, is
proof enough that the students who fol-
low it seriously. may become .'educat-
ed, T." in the usual sense in which that
term is employed
Systems OF education are based ey-
erywhere on the racial beliefs and
habits, 10 a large extent, and are not
planned out on the actual condition of
the human mind. We are only at the
cock-crowing OF our knowledge OF the
real needs Of the mind. and the very
best method Of training ii, so that any
system must be imperfect and tenta-
tive.
Education is, after all. only a means
10 one end. that Of securing the best"
living. Mathematics, geometry. the
languages and arts. have no value IN
less they secure something that is bet
ter or the best In spite of the pro-
gress in enlarging education, the broad
educators feel that there is something
sadly lacking yet The students gradu-
ate with false notions about life. The
home life does not remove these no
tons. for the parents themselves have
unfortunately the same false notions.
Education" after graduation is us
ually arrested by the struggle in the
world. 1t seems. therefore, that the
students should be especially grounded
as far as possible in the evolution of
history Il touches their lives and con-
sciousness more closely than any other
subject History is the record of hui
man experience, but students do not
clearly understand that the sources of
it are the thoughts and acts Of the
masses Of men. who really control ev-
ents. Kings and statesmen are merely
the figure heads, the spokesman, the
sign posts. as Lamartine, We believe,
said Of Napoleon, that if he had not
lived, the great Revolutionary move
ment would have existed and spent its
force, under some other leader.
For this reason, the American His
torical Association recently recon-
mended the more thorough study of
the sources of history The student,
even in the earlier stages of his educa-
ton, needs 10 realize that he thinks
and acts, just as the millions who have
preceded him, thought and acted
though he may move on higher plane.
He will never get the best uses from
his other studies, unless he understands
this well But above all stands the
teacher, who should be. with the aid Of
books, the best course Of study. Be
cause We are only at the eock-crowing

sion is not what it should be, the fore

SENATOR BACON'S AMENDMENT

The amendment 10 the Treaty
offered by Senator Bacon. requir-
ing that il should be submitted
10 the vote of the Hawaiian peo-
pie, must open up a very funny
debate on the rights of the peo-
pie" and the rule of the major

what these phrases mean. They
are about as vague as the phrase

political literature is full OF noble
sentiments about these rights.

clude the intelligent Asiatics.
The Americans refused TO be rul-
ed by the majority in 1776 unless
they got their rights. So they
went into revolution. Then when
the people of the South said. in
1861: Let US have the same

all claimed in 1916. the North
