THE NEW JAPANESE SCHOOL
DEDICATED TODAY WITH MUCH
CEREMONY.
The Occasion Considered Peculiarly
Auspicious Because 1t is the Ami
versary of the Japanese Empire.

The anniversary of the foundation of
the Japanese empire was celebrated by
the Japanese colony in Honolulu by the
dedication of a Japanese school on the
Bachelor phemises.
The school is a private one in the
sense that it is not supported by the
Hawaiian government. 1t is for the
instruction of Japanese children in
japanese. The school will open for in
struction next Monday.
The undertaking to establish such a
school originated with Rev. Okumura,
but has been generally seconded and
contributed to by the Japanese mer-
chants and other Japanese of this city.
The imperial Japanese government
thought so well of it that an appropria-
ton for it was made by the depart
ment of education.
The dedication of the building which
has just been completed. taking place
on this national fete day, added enthu-
siasm to the occasion. The building
and grounds were handsomely decorat-
ed and an extensive program was rem
dered
The principal address of the occasion
was made by the japanese consul His
theme was education in it's relation to
the progress of Japan and the Japa-
nese
The financial report of the undertake
ing was read by Mr.. Niikuni. The at
tendance was large and much inter-
est was manifested, this being the
first school of the kind in the Islands

WHILE LIFTING A ROLLER HIS
HEART FAILED.
Native Mechanic Highly Esteemed at
the Foundry-Will be No Coroners
vestigation-Details.

There was a sudden death in the
Honolulu Iron Works about 8 o'clock
this morning.
Moke, native, living in Kawaiahao
lane, was engaged, with four other
men, lifting a roller A crane was be-
ing used for the purpose. They had
just begun to lift when Moke let go,
threw his hands across his stomach,
and dropped dead.
AS soon as the man fell his COM
panions rushed to him. To all appear
ances he had died instantly.
Deputy Marshal Chillingworth con-
Quoted a thorough examination and
decided that there was no necessity
for a coroner's inquiry. The cause of
death was unquestionably heart dis
ease.
Moke had complained at different
times of severe pains in the region of
the heart. In fact, for some years he
had suffered with some trouble of that
organ and had been treated by a ply
sician for 1t. The strain of lifting on
the crane superinduced the failure
which brought death.
Moke leaves a young wife and two
children. They live at Kawaiahao. The
body was taken home soon after Chill
lingworth had completed his investiga-
ton.
The man was an old hand at the works
and was a good mechanic. Besides he
was a general fayorite among his fell
lows,

TIE FIRST WELL A SUCCESS
SPRECKELSVILLE NEW WATER
SYSTEM.
McCandless Bros. Reach a Satisfacto-
ry Flow at a Depth of Only SO Feet
From Surface.

George r. Carter who returned by
the Mauna Loa yesterday from Maui,
witnessed the completion of the first
bored well on the Spreckelsville PLAN
tation. A satisfactory flow was there
secured at a depth of SO feet Other
wells will be bored in the immediate
locality, to complete the complement of
holes decided upon for that station.
In a four hours test the new well
gave out water at the rate of 500, 900 to
100000 gallons a day Considering
that the well is on high ground this
flow is considered somewhat phenom-
email and is particularly gratifying to
the promoters of the station.
While this Is the first bored well on
the plantation. it must not be inferred
that artesian water is not used. There
are three stations now in successful
operation. They have dug wells, or
great holes opened with pick and SHOW
el, to water. Station No. 1 has a flow
of something like 100000 gallons a
day, No. gives out 3,00000 and No.
about 100000 gallons. No. is in
course of building now
The purpose of the new station is to
reach large section of land at a high
er elevation. in furtherance of the
scheme of the present directors of a
systematic enlargement of the titled
estate. 1t is anticipated that the i'm
provement will enable the incorpora-
tion of several hundreds of acres here
tofore idle, an expense rather than a
profit
McCandless Bros. are boring the new
wells. In a week from the time OF
starting they had finished the first one
and are now going ahead on the 9TH
ers. j. S. McCandless is superintend-
ing the work.
