A STRIKE ON At PEPEEKEO
JAPANESE DEMAND DISCHARGE
or 4 LUNA.
The Demand Refused They submit to
Arrest and March to Hilo Jail-Ro-
turn To Work

HILO. July 20.-Friday. July Il. A
luna on pepeekco plantation lost his
temper ana struck or Kicked a Jap
anese laborer The news of this as
sault spreading among the japanese
laborers of the plantation created a
great deal of excitement which seemed
to increase as the men had time to
talk 1t over on Sunday. Monday nearly
all the laborers refused to go to work
unless the luna was discharged. Man
ager Henry Deacon refused to accede
to this demand but told the Japanese
he could have the luna arrested and the
matter settled in the courts. He de-
clined to do this and it is said he was
willing to go to work but that he was
inundated by the ringleaders who
were fomenting trouble.
The police department was telephon-
ed and Deputy Sheriff Lyman accom-
panied by Japanese Interpreter Quni
went to Pepeekeo. Warrants were
sworn out for ten of the supposed ring
leaders and they were arrested. Still
the others refused to go to work unless
the luna was discharged They were
then told that if they did not go to
work they would be arrested as soon
as warrants could be issued, and that
they might stay where they were until
arrested or go to Hilo whittier they
would be taken after arrest.
They decided on the latter course and
at = o'clock Monday afternoon 293 of
them started in orderly procession for
Hilo. They arrived there at s o'clock in
the evening and were lodged in Jail
The next day they were examined and
most of them expressed a willingness
to return to work. Fourteen of them
were retained under arrest charged
with conspiracy. Bail was fixed at $500
in each case.
The Hawaii Herald sharply criticises,
editorially, the packing of so many men
in the small Jail accommodations for
the night when their orderliness and
general demeanor would seem to have
justified permitting them to remain in
the Jail yard under guard.

THE TELEPHONE ON HAWAII.
Proposed improvements of the Hilc
and Hawaii Company

HILO, July 21.-The annual report of
the Hilo and Hawaii Telephone Com
pany, just made public shows the fol-
lowing facts concerning the business
and plant of the company.
The company owns 140 miles of single
lines through the Hilo and Puma dis
tricts, with 206 telephones in use on the
first day of July of the present year. an
increase of forty-one instruments dur
ing the present year. The cost of the
changes made in the office building the
past year is $1074 rs. Two dividends,
one of per cent and one of per cent
have been paid
Measures will be taken in the near
future to reconstruct the lines on the
most approved plan and introduce a
new switchboard for the purpose of do
ing away with the present difficulties
at night caused by the induction from
the electric light wires, making tele-
phoning very difficult.
Another wire will be added on the vol
cano road to seventeen miles. One
new copper wire will be put in to 90
kala.

ON CHRISTMAS EVE
The Sunday Evening Services at
the Presbyterian Church.

A Christmas eve service commem-
orative of the birth of Christ was
rendered in a delightful manner at
the Presbyterian church last Sun
Gay evening, the church being
crowded to the limit on the occasion.
The decorations are deserving of
special mention, although no ver-
bal description can do them Justice.
The main design was the Star of
Bethlehem, typified by a golden star
hung from the apex OF the vaulted
ceiling of the church. Converging
to this star were hung pale blue
draperies, extending clear across
the end of the church, back of the
pulpit. Inclosing the pulpit itself
was an evergreen arch, while the
gothic windows on either side, and
the groined ceiling, were beauti-
fully decorated with the national
colors. Minor decorations were

ATST. GATHERINGS.
The Services We're Solemn and I'm
preSSive in the MorninQ.

The members of the Catholic
church residing in thfs vicinity
participated in solemn services all
of Monday forenoon, with the Rev
FIR. JAS J. Woods, officiating. AS
early as $50 in the morning there
was a general communion of the
people, and again at $50 services OF
similar nature were renewed.
At 1870 o'clock the pastor cele-
brated solemn high mass. and this
was followed by most eloquent
and impressive sermon by Rev.
Woods on the birth and history OF
Christ. The pastor. was unusually
clear in his narrative and the teach
ings of the early life of the Saviour,
and the large audience that listened
to him not only showed their deep
appreciation of that effort, but OF
the enthusiasm of the pastor in build
ing up the church, by presenting
him with purse amounting to
5000. During the services there
was special music by the church
choir. A benediction closed the
days work.

SANTA At THE CHRISTIAN.
The Little Folks Given a Nice En-
tertainment Friday Night.

There was genuine mirth at the
Christian church last Friday even
ing, where Santa Claus kept his
promise to appear couple OF days
ahead of time. The church was
packed with humanity, and the
junior portion occupied the bald
headed row, and from these seats
the children sent forth continued
peals of laughter at the remarks of
Elder Henry Goodacre and as Santa
Claus. in the person Of Lawrence
King, appeared, driving his deer.
The church was handsomely dec
grated for the occasion In one
corner stood tree appropriately
decorated, while in another stood
the organ. and from in front of the
organ to the tree was sliding cur
tain.
The exercises opened by song
from male quartette, which rem
dered considerable of excellent
vocal music during the evening.
Following the opening song came
songs, recitations, etc. by the chill
dren, all touching on the Christmas
season, or on the birth and teach
ings of Christ, and the little people
all showed excellent training.
When about one quarter through
with the programme Elder Goodacre
called up Santa Claus headquarters
by telephone and got an agreement
from Santa at the north pole that he
would be there inside of half an
hour, and the children were kept
laughing by Mr.. Goodacre S tele-
phone talk Later he called up
Morton and found that Santa was
there and would be in Redwood in
side of a few minutes. and during
the rendition of the remainder of

children was centered on the ap-
pearance CT the north pole man. The
curtain was caused to shut off the
pulpit, Elder Goodacre did some
more talking on the phone, the
jingle of bells was heard, the cur
tain was drawn back and there was
Santa Claus, driving his deer,
There We're many peals of laughter
from old and young, and then Santa
appointed assistants and gifts were
distributed among the children.
The evening was an unusually hap
py one at the church, and the old
folks enlOved it as well as the Young

On Sunday evening the Altar so
ciety presented the pastor with a
set of Roger Bros. solid silver
knives and forks. a set of table
spoons. and silver berry spoon
and knife.
The church altar was beautifully
decorated for the services on Mon
day.
On Sunday Rev. Woods conducted
services in Belview. where the
ladies had decorated the church in
a superb manner. At the close of
the service the congregation gave
the pastor a Christmas purse of
S9.5O.
At II O clock next Sunday even
ing, to close the old year and to be-
gin the new, there will be special
midnight Thanksgiving services
at St. GATHERINGS. and after these
services Fr. Woods will drive to St.
Henry S in Sheridan. for the purpose
of conducting services there.

used with discretion, so as not to
detract from the main design. The
credit for the work is largely due
to C. G. johnson and DR.. Hawes, Of
the decoration committee.
The program was arranged with
special reference to the sacredness
of the event and of the day. 1t
opened with GLORY to God in the
Highest, by the choir Misses
Bake, Mckay. and Everett, Mrs.
Hunter, .Messrs. Howard and Bar
ackman. and Mrs. Johnson organist,
which also closed the musical eXer-
cises with the familiar anthem,
There were Shepherds Abiding in
the Field Following the opening
prayer by the pastor, Smith Tiffany
recited The Christmas Star and
we'll drilled chorus of girls sang a
Christmas anthem. The primary
class recited the story of the Star,
the Peabody sisters sang ''Bethle-
hem, > and later, ''Hark the Merry
Christmas Bells, with their usual
perfection of harmony and express
sion. Seven children told why
we love to bring gifts to Jesus, >
Adele Race recited The Children S
Telegram, . Ruby Curtis sang as a
solo, ''Hark, what mean these Heav-
enly Voices.' Rose Hunter and Mar
guerite Warner told 1.-The Story of
the Christ Child Chas. Buxton
sang s'The Star of Bethlehem, and
Mrs. Dornberg and Miss Bissell
contributed appropriate readings.
Too much praise cannot be accorded
to the young ladies who looked after
the drilling of the children, and all
concerned acquitted themselves with
credit.
