OUR wAILuKU LETTER.

The farewell luau given by the
Lahaina people to Capt. Ablborn

evening was a success. 1t was given
at Judge Kahaulelio's beautiful
home. The yard was all aglow with
japanese lanterns, torch lights lined
the street on both sides near the
house aud from afar the illumina-
ton was something grand. There
was enough food prepared for the
whole of Lahaina and at the first
sitting four big tables were filed
representing nearly all the various
types OF the world. No exceptions
we're made as a general invitation to

given and with the clashing of glas-
ses containing the popular stimulant
intermingled with the echos OF the
fair sexes the repast ended making
it lasting memory and one OF the
grandest affairs tina, Lahaina ever
witnessed.
Dancing came next aud with Gee.

A Bad Egg.

A young Hawaiian was charged
with larceny in the District Court
this morning, He was mere boy,
decently dressed and having evid-
emily enjoyed fairly good educa-
ton. During the hearing of the
case it was shown that the young
fellow had been guilty of arson by
setting fire to cane fields in Kohala;
that he was the dirty scamp who
painted obscene pictures on the
telephone posts on Nuuanuu street
and that he now pleaded guilty of
larceny for the third time. The
magistrate sent the offender to Jail
Tor two years. The boy is evidently
an incurable "dime novels"

that the opponents OF Bishop Willis

; This is great mistake which
those conversant with the affairs in
the Church would readily have been
aware Of. The letter of the Bishop
has nothing whatever to do with the
suit pending in our Courts at the
instigation OF the Second Congrega-
ton. 1t is simply matter Of an
eventual transfer OF jurisdiction over
the Anglican Church from the Eng
lish clerical authorities to those of

THE BISHOPS LETTER.

The pastoral letter of the Bishop
of Honolulu to the members of the
Anglican Church has led number
of people to believe that the Bishop
has shaken the dust off his feet and
has resigned his high position in
Hawaii.

That Bishop Willis was opposed
to the overturn of the Hawaiian
monarchy by the filibusters in 1898
is well-known. That he as an honest
Christian and true gentleman, did
all in his power to have the wrong
righted, can never be denied and
that he suffered insults and humilia-
ton from the vulgar mob in power,
for-the noble stand taken by him
are facts of record.
That Hawaii is now part of the
United States, is an indisputable
fact, and in the interest Of his church
the Bishop has suggested tran sfer
of the supremacy from the See of
Canterbury to the Synod of Bishops
of the Episcopalian Church of the
United States. To effect this step
he was compelled to offer his re-
signation to the Primate of Eng
land; by doing so he by no means
resigns his position here or deserts
the sacred duties of his high Office.
In a conversation with friend the
Bishop stated that the church will
be in far better financial condi-
ton when belonging to the Amer
lean than it ever can be under
the present system. "We are like a
business house," said the Bishop,
Switch has only money enough to
pay for one clerk when four are
needed; which knows that it is to
its best interest to establish honest
branches of the business but lacks
the funds to do So"

We cannot see airy reason why
the Hawaiians should not register
and vote at the next election. Those
who have qualified outnumber the
foreigners of whom many will stand
by them. Those who have paid
their taxes and are entitled to
vote should register at once, go to
the ballot box and send their men
to the Legislature. 1t is foolish TO
hold back any further. The Hawai-
ians know their friends who have
stood up for the independence of
their country and suffered poverty,
Imprisonment and insults. Those
friends say to the Hawaiians that
the moment has come when change
of policy has become peremptory in
the interest OF the Hawaiiaps. We
must necessarily adopt he situation,
admit that we are now an integral
part of the United States and re-
member that even the Churches hos
tile to annexation have submitted to
the Inevitable fate and become "an-
nexed." May be that no session of
local legislature will ever be held,
but yet it is the duty OF all Hawai-
ians qualified to register aud vote
and vote for the men who will truly
and sincerely represent the interests
of Hawaii-nei il another Legislature
is ever called by this hermaphrodite
government.

MAGNETIC ROCKS AT FAULT.
English Scientist Whose Theory Ac-
counts for the Disaster to
the Paris.

The local scientist, Thomas Clark, of
Truro, England, whose study on the
basic rocks of Cornwall has attracted
much attention and has been discussed
by several scientific institutions, said
the other day that the Paris, like the
Mohegan, was drawn out of her course
by magnetic influence. He said
II have made this a particular study.
Genrally it is believed that there are
no rocks on the British isles whose
power over the bar magnet or needle
equals that of the compass rock at the
apex of the island of Gamma in the
Hebrides. u
This is wrong, for have obtained
stones from Bottallock mine near St.
just in Cornwall and from quarry at
Launcoston, whose magnetic power
surpasses that of the Gamma stone
The rocks along the coast of Cornwall
from Port Hallow, along The Lizard,
are all more or less magnetic.
In the case of those miles of basic
rock along the Cornish cliffe, where
thousands of pounds of magnetic ma
terial are brought into motion by a
storm, there must at times be an enor-
nous increase of magnetic power. OF
this power the sea would be no barrier,
water being conductor of magnet

The prince will be at Newport about
the middle of August and the wedding

Palmer with whom Miss Grant and her
mother will stop The wedding will be
a royal one in its appointments. His
mother, who, it is understood will come
here with the prince to attend the
wedding, visited Miss Grant and Mrs.
Palmer at Cannes soon after the first
rumor of the engagement, and seemed
attached to the young American girl.
After the wedding the prince and prin-
cess will return TO Russia. Part of the
year their home will be in st. Peters
burg and the remainder of the time on
the estate of the prince in southern
Russia.

DOG CEMETERY AT EVANSTON.
tabIished in Classic suburb
of Chicago. -.

The latest wrinkle in Evanston, ILL.,,
is dog cemetery, and as usual with all
new wrinkles in the classic Chicago
suburb, society and political circles are
stirred TO their profoundest depths
The dog graveyard is the outcome of
an effort OH the part of the police to
collect enough money on dog licenses
to make up deficiency of 81, 800 in the
appropriation for the expense of the
department. Unless the amount is
raised a recent increase of salaries will
be denied the police, In their efforts
to collect the amount the police be-
gan crusade against dogs, and every
canine whose owner refused to pay the
necessary license was summarily exc
cuted. The result was that Evanston
alleys were soon filed with the bodies
of unlicensed dogs and the necessity
for burying bee became obvious both
10 sight and smell.
The site of the place has not yet been
definitely decided upon, but members
of the Evanston council police COM
mittee are said to be partial to small
piece of land lying directly west of the
suburb. If the proposition meets with
the approval of the council il will be
the first city to maintain regular
canine cemetery.

INDUSTRIES OF SPAIN.
Not injured as Much as 1t Was Feared
they Would lie by the War
.,, with America. lpff

Native Industries in Spain did not
suffer during the war of 1898 as greatly
as was feared This is the statement of
the British commercial attache ut Mad
rid, II. Harrison, whose report to the
British government on the trade of
Spain for the year 1895 has just reached
the treasury bureau of statistics. Mr..
Harrison's statement begins 10y saying;
sin spite of the wars and consequent
general excitement and heavy taxation,
native industries in Spain have not suf-
fered as greatly as it was feared they
would do. The loss of the colonial mar
kets, on which the export trade of Spain
greatly depended, has made it neces-
sary for the government to take serious
steps for finding new markets for Span
ish products and for stimulating and
enlarging those already known. With
this intention several important meas
ures have been instituted
Commercial attaches have been ap-
pointed for Mexico, Brazil, Uruguay,
the Argentine republic and Chile, and
all possible steps are being taken to in
crease Spanish interests in these coun-
tries"

PEACE TREATY NOT CLEAR.
Ownership of Spanish Cannon In
the Philippines Is Not Yet
Settled.

The war department is in possession
of about lao pieces of artillery captured
or surrendered as a result of the war
with Spain. Many applications have
been received for the loan or gift of
these guns, and few of them have
been granted. The act of congress un-
der which the distribution is made
sanctions such loans or gifts only TO
@. a, II. posts, soldiers memorial as
sociations and municipalities.
The department is not yet settled in
the acceptance of Gen. Otis decision
that the Spanish government is entitled
TO all of the cannon In the Philippines
outside of those brought in by the
American army. The paragraph In the
peace treaty relating to the ownership
of this artillery admits of double con
struction, but the weight of opinion in
the department is that the United
States Is at least entitled to the posses
sion of the guns captured and surren-
dered before the signing Of the peace
protocol. This would include the bat
teries at Cavite, Corregidor island at
the mouth of Manila bay, and probably
those in the Notifications of Manila

WE MUST AID THEM.
Gen. Henry, Late Governor of Porto
Rico, Talks of Needs There.
says United states should Help the
Natives to BecOme AmericnnEed
Are n Patient and Uncom-
pIninIng People.

Speaking before the Colonial Aid So
ciety, at New York, Gen. Guy V. Henry,
late governor general of Porto Rico,
compared the Porto Ricans to the North
American Indians, snylng that nothing
was done for tlle .IndiapS until they be-
gan to cause the government trouble.
He said in part; ~
Porto Rico is the only one of the ac-
quired possessions which has given us
no trouble coming to us willingly,
anxious to be rid of the Spanish yoke of
oppression. We should aid them in
every possible way to become Ameri'
canized, which can only be by adoption
of our laws and methods and being
educated. Upon the latter depends the
success of the island. AS only "A per
cent can read and write it will be easily
seen how much there is in this direction
to be done, and the great responsibility
put upon us TO change this ignorance
into intelligence. We must work with
the children; they are bright and nnX-
ious to learn. The system of schools on
paper is good, in practice poor, owing
to the method of teaching. There are
no schoolhouses children being taught
In rooms where the teachers live. The
latter ure more than poorly paid, for
the general complaint was of nonpay-
ment by municipalities. The island is
divided into districts, with an American
in. charge, AT San Juan a part of the
days. lesson is In English. At Ponce
there is n school of some 900 children,
taught by American ladies, bnt this is
mot drop in the bucket when we think
of an island of nearly million souls
upon whom education would not be
wasted, and is of vital Importance. To
put 4 practically, they need teachers,
paid by Americans, for they are poor,
and the islands moneys, us long as
available, are needed badly for building
roads, giving employment to the labor
ers, improving jails, hospitals, etc, and
introducing necessary sanitary re
forms.
The characteristic of the Porto Rican
is most patient, uncomplaining suffer
ing. have never seen beggar. They
are proud and high-spirited; they ask
for work, never for aims. They have
their faults and we have ours; but UNI
der similar masters, such as they have
had for hundreds of years, we would he
worse, or at least no better.

CLOTHING FOR TROOPS.
Custom OF Issuing unn,ndc Clothing
to the Enlisted Mem OF the Army
lIna Dccn nesumed.

After lapse of a year and half
the quartcrmaster's department. has
resumed the issue OF unmadc clothing
(blouses and trousers) to the enlisted
men of the army. Its discontinuance
was due TO post quarterrnasters and
company commanders asking cSclu-
sively for large sizes for the purpose
of cutting them down to fit men who
might equally as well have been fitted
with small size garments. To this end
Quartcrmaster General Ludington has
recently directed that all post quarter
masters be advised of the reissue of
this kind Of clothing unless the privi-
lege is again abused.
1t was found that the government
was eXpending a great deal of money
for the material for soldiers apparel,
and upon inquiry it developed that a
good deal more cloth was ordered than
was necessary, and that great part Of
it was wasted. The return to the for
mer custom is hailed with delight
among the men, who have always taken
certain pride in the neat fit of their
uniforms. This feature has not always
been possible when garments were is
sued and made over" eThe company
tailor will now he able to make blouscs
and trousers according to individual
measurement, aud the practice will be
adhered 10, provided the company ofli-
GERS do not get careless and reckless
in their issue of the material
