"Tbe Land of the Maori

The second musical and de-
scriptive recital of Maori land by
Wherahiko Rawei, B. A., took
place Thursday evening at the
Y. M. G. A. hall and drew forth
an attendance almost filling the
hall. The subject "The Land of
the Maori was illustrated with
beautiful lime-light scenery show
ing different phases of the pro-
gress Of civilization and of native
life. The scenes, depicting ma
ture in all her glory, such as We
getation, mountain and lake
views, snow capped peaks, native
beauties, and so forth, entirely
puts our own loveliest scenes in
the shade.
From beginning to end the
lecturer was carefully followed
by his listeners and applause was
frequent. He is fluent and
pleasing speaker, his diction of
the English language being of no
mean order, showing how we'll he
had profted by the opportunities
Of education. We consider these
recitals quite a treat, his express
sions and denunciatiOn being so
pure, grand, elaborate, magnifi-
cent and comprehensive, especial
ly in one who is foreign to the
English language, he himself be-
ing a part-Maori.
During the course of his recital
he said that it was traditional
with the Maoris that New Zea-
land was first peopled from Ha-
wiki, meaning these Islands. 1t
substantiatcs our own traditions.
His description of Maori life is
not at all unlike the incidents of
Hawaiian life, which fact makes
his discourse all the more pleasing
and attractive especially to Ha-
waiians of birth or long resi-,
dence. His rendition of Maori
music is very pleasing, but the
songs and harmonies in no way
compare with our own.
Taking it in all in all, these reci-
tails are very entertaining and des-
.criptiye, besides being moreover
very instructive. AS Mr.. Rawei
leaves for home on the Moana on
Octorber H., we hope he will give
other recitals for the good cause
he is working for, that is, the rails
ing of sufficient fund with which
to endow school for the up.
lifting of the Maoris from their
demoralizing mode of living to a
much higher and better sphere.
We hope that more young Haw-
aiians will attend and see Mr..
Rawei dressed as a Maori and
hear what he has to say of his
own people akin to ours.

Judge Wilcox delivered one OF his
fine lectures on Saturday in senterc-
ing an employee on board the
steamer Australia to pay fine OF
5000 for having opium in possession.
The Magistrate said that the Austria
liza had become notorious and that
he considered it necessary TO deal
severely with the employees OF that
steamer, who constantly seemed to
dabble in the prohibited stuff. He
should deal with such cases without
fear although he would not chose
to take passage for San Francisco in
the steamer, after having checked
the source OF an increased income
OF the employees, Attorney Viyas
for the defendant called attention
to the fact that the man had wife
and children. The Judge said that
he saw no reason why the Court
should be asked to remember or
consider the family of the defend
ant as he (the defendant) had not
seen fit 10 consider them when he
took his chances OF becoming rich
by violating the laws. The Judge
speaks very often very much to the
point.
