The first assailants of Balic- -Balic

house No. 6, near which Company e
was stationed as a reserve. When the
men saw the other companies rushing
through the village upon the block
house in the face of a ripping fire from

1t was the first charge of the Filipino
war, and every soul looking on burned
to be in it. Finally some of the natives
at the village began to run down the
lines toward blockhouse No. 6, hoping
for shelter there. Seeing that, Captain

Company E to charge. The movement
OF this handful down the line turned
the fight around the blockhouse into a
three cornered affair and cut it off
from the village so that not one fugi-

there.
BlockhouSe No. 6 was entered by
Companies G and F of the Colorados

SECRETARY HAY AS A BOY.
He Paid Out the Boys With His Own
Dishes.

Colonel Hay, secretary of state, was,
when a boy. a regular attendant Of
the Presbyterian Sunday school at
Warsaw, Ills.
The Sunday school lessons partly
consisted of committing to memory BIZ
BILE verses, and to attain supremacy in
this created quite a rivalry among the
scholars, declares the Christian En-
deavor World. John Hay was sure to
come out from two to five answers,
sometimes more, ahead, causing those
of his comrades who were always be-
hind him to regard him with envy.
Consequently, when some of those
boys heard that John had to wash dish
es and do the churning for his mother,
and, more than ALL that he wore an
apron while at these duties, his Jealous
comrades fairly crowed.
One morning it was agreed by his
comrades to get him out of doors while
he had his apron on, and humiliate him
by having two or three girls whom he
rather liked ask him questions regard
ing his housework.
Young Hay came to where the boys
were, and answered the questions by
saying that he washed dishes as his
mother taught him, and then, with
twinkling eyes, he gave the dishpan
that he had with him, a tremendous
fling, contents and all, drenching who
ever happened to be near enough, and
laughing loudly ran into the kitchen.
Hay and his big apron were never mo-
Tested after that

PALANA SCHOOL TEACHERS
TO MOULD USEFUL MINDS ON
THE WEST SIDE.
Faculty OF the Big Institution is Now
Complete-Beretania Street School
Board Meeting

Palama school, of which Armstrong
Smith is principal, occupied the bulk
of attention before the meeting of the
commissioners of education yesterday
afternoon. Mrs. Nina L. ID. Frazier was
appointed vice principal of the school,
and Miss Carry Rowland, Mrs. Cate
Rowland Phillips, Miss May Laughlin
and Mrs. Edith l.. Berger were APP
pointed assistants.
Mrs. Isabella Creighton was appoint
ed vice principal of the new Beretania
street school, which, however, does not
exist now. In the meantime she will
remain as assistant in Palama school
under Mrs. Frazier, but will draw the
salary of vice principal.
Principal Armstrong Smith and
School Agent Rose Davidson were au-
thorized to engage Miss Josephine
Wores, to teach wood carpentering in
the Palama school.
Miss Blanche Allen of Paia, and Miss
Dosries of Kahului were allowed to
exchange schools. Miss Allen leaves
at Kahului and teaches at Paia while
Miss Dosries does precisely the oppo-
site thing and they pass each other on
the way to school every morning. The
change will be a great convenience to
both.
Minister Cooper reported to the board
that negotiations are under way for
the exchange of land that would great
ly add to the size of the lot occupied
by the Fort street school. A report
would probably be ready by the next
meeting on this matter.
Various applications for appoint
ments and transfers were referred to
the committee on teachers.
The resignation of Miss May Weight
from the school at Honokaa, and w. II.
Holokahiki from the Hama school were
accepted.
Godfrey F. Alfonso was appointed as
agent to grant marriage licenses in the
town of Hilo.
