MILITARY HOSPITAL.
Work on the Building VIII Not
Be DELAYED.

Mrs. H. NJ. Sewall and other ladies
of the Red Cross Society met Architect
Traphagen yesterday morning on the
subject of the arrangement of the new
United States military hospital at In
dependence park. Later in the day
superintendent Eckardt was called in
to consultation with the architect and
the ladies on the subject OF the dorml-
tory and surgical arrangements. Still
later several prominent physicians
were consulted with respect to the
sanitary condition of the premises,
ventilation, etc.
Some changes have been made in
the original plans for the hospital.
It has been decided to make the ar
rangements temporary in character,
until such time as annexation may
bring an American garrison to Homo
lulu, or other circumstances may make
a change advisable or necessary. There
will be no expensive alterations to the
pavilion at the park. Light material
will be used to partition off the beds,
Special attention will be paid to ven
tilation and drainage. On the grounds
there will be a small building for the
accommodation of persons having
measles, or other light contagious all
ments.
Work of fitting up the hospital will
begin in the course of a few days.
Minister Sewal expects the surgeon
and staff from the States early in
August.

Kauai, has been made a special COM
missioner. Mr.. Wilcox is making 6
trip to the northwest on private bust
ness. This is on account of his inter-
est in the big fertilizer company here.
The expedition will steam from Ho-
nolulu at 10 o'clock this morning. The
vessel viii be the Inter Island Com
pany's WaialeaIe, regular passenger
and freight packet, well engined, re-
Gently Overhauled under the direction
Of A. V. Keech and entirely fit for the
voyage. The trip proper is to Laysan
Island and the charter is to the local
fertilizer company.
Mr. Wilcox takes along, at the re-
quest of the Executive Council of the
Republic, two Hawaiian flags that he
will with correct official procedure, as
established by Capt. J. A. King, plant
on a couple of islands that are on the
latest maps yet marked "PD,' mean
ing, position doubtful. These islands
or reefs or atoIs may not be found at
all. A search within reasonable time
allowance will be made for them. If
they are located, Mr.. Wilcox will go
ashore, read his proclamations, plant
his flags, erect loose stone monuments
and leave documents in copper cases.
Everything for this annexation work
was taken aboard the Waialeale last
evening.
The two islands, upon which may be
found guanO like the beds at Laysan
or good cable landing, like at Neckar,
are more distant from Laysan than
Laysan from Oahu. Byer Island, which
is also called "PatrOcinO," and which
on that score might have been named
by Spaniards. is about 1000 miles
from Oahu. Morell Island is about
/ 700 miles from Oahu. beth are past
the $50 line"
If these two islands are discovered
or located and placed under Hawaiian
control incidental to the trip Of Mr..
Wilcox there will then be under the
flag of the Republic all the known
islands in the chain.

ers of the country. The speaker once
saw divine smile on the dirty face Of
a child in dark street OF Boston. He
trudged up in wonder, TO find that the
child was fondling a small, half-faded
clover blossom. The child is divine.
God created it fun OF instincts, ready
for cultivation.
At this juncture the speaker gave
a beautiful illustration of the life OF
New Hampshire boy, who, after study
ing. botany. geography, zoology. etc,
in Natures own way on the farm, dis
covered that there was more in the
big world beyond and ran away from
home to delve into it's mysteries. These
gems appeared in the story:
Fishing is a relic of savagery. A
boy takes his lines down to the brook
TO satisfy an instinct to be alone with
nature. 1t is the instinct that brings
the soul out face to face with the great
God of the Universe"
when the teacher is ready to lay
aside the whip and help the child,
success has begun"
"The best, truest and highest things
are crushed out OF a child by false ed
ucation. The greatest proof To my mind
of the divinity of a child is that he
can live through the education he is
receiving"
Il never knew a bad boy in my life.
l never saw one but that / could make
him better by helping him; and if you
understand boy you can help him.
The sullen eye and characteristics
that may impress one as showing a bad
boy are merely the outcroppings of a
feeling that nobody cares for me and
| will care nothing for anybody
As teacher l tell you that so long
as you don't try to understand the
children in the school, and help them,
your prayers will not reach the throne
of God nor your songs the gates OF
Heaven.
"If your endeavor to help your child
rem is accompanied with the whole
heart, it will receive divine blessing
and will be successful.
Il repeat again, find the child.
Every child loves nature. That is the
key. He loves the hills, the wales. the
flowers. Talk to him about these
things and have him tell you what
he knows and thinks of them. That
will open the way. The child must be
taught nature. This spontaneous ed
ucation of childhood must be continued
by the teacher
THE child should be taught nature
for the reason that this is an age of
nature study. In the past 250 years
the world has been changed by it. The
world today is full of light from this
study. Lock back to Watt, Hugh Mil
Ter, Fulton, Franklin and many 9th
ers. The child must adopt it because
he must live in the age IN which he
finds himself.
II believe that the nature Of the
universe is Gods open book Myth
goes over to and sinks in Nature. AS
the child learns more of nature, he
knows more of God. Nature is al
ways right; always beautiful"

been through a lively scuffle. He was
so sleepy at the hotel, however, that
he could give no particulars.

Cut in Wages.

Marshal Brown has decided to re

from $10O to $50 a month. The reason
for this is the disparity between saIa-
ries of captains and Iieutenants, that
of the latter being only $50 Finding
it impossible to advance the stipend
of Iieutenants, the Marshal decided to
reduce the captains. Enlisted men on
the force will continue to draw the
same wages.

which explode before one is ready for

see the entire city crossed and recrossed by
a shining network of fire. 1t is like u

through broad, tropical palm leaves and
part the glossy foliage Of the magnolia in
their swift flight, while the splendid
branches of the unchanging live oak throw
the earth beneath into deeper shadows be-
cause of the fiery trails in the sky above
1.-THE fun begins again betimes the next
morning with greater enthusiasm than
ever. Now, indeed, the juveniles gyow
reckless, and whole packages of hrecrackcrs

Through some oversight, the concert
given by the Calumet band on the after
noon OF the Fourth was not mentioned,
but it is safe to ssy the concert was much

tends to be great deal better, as there
are more players expected in few days.
