COLONIAL EXPOSITION.
UmSted Wishes
Government Cooperation

Commissioner Umsted who is here to
gather a Hawaiian exhibit for the
Colonial Exposition to be held at Oma-
ha this year is a busy man. He has
taken up the few days he has been
here in presenting letters of introduce
ton and looking over the field. He
is greatly pleased at the courteous
treatment with which he has met, and
the evident desire of the business COM
munity to further his mission.
"The great thing / now need" said
he, sis the hearty cooperation of the
Government in aiding me to gather the
exhibit The inducements offered now
are much greater than were offered for
last years exposition. The time is ripe
for Hawaii to advertise herself and the
best means by which she can do it is

kinderSartenS.

There is a certain kindergarten in
Honolulu, where, singularly enough, it
is grown people who so to learn how
to direct children, as we'll as the place
where children go to learn the right
way for themselves. It's mistress has a
thousand inspirations by means of
which she threads the labyrinth of a
little-ones heart, and wonderful it is
to see how it is done, though the on
locker gets but small part of it, out
side as he or she is of the strong spi-
ritual sympathies which flow between
that teacher and her group of young
souls in charge.
The several kindergartens have Il
treat now and then-a treat no less
than having the band play all for
themselves. Those nearest, walk to
Emma hall, or take a car, but Kaka-
ako and Palama are so far away that
an omnibus becomes necessary-a high
time they have when fifty laughing,
chattering children are sandwiched in
to one vehicle. But still the old adage
comes true. "the more, the merrier,' -
and childhood is but once-and then
the pleasure of listening to the music
and the return! How easy to make
children happy-why do we not do it
oftener?
Kakaako bids fair to bloom and
blossom like a garden in the midst of
a desert. 1t is matter Of time, but
its directress has the will that makes
the way, and what a boom in that
forlorn quarter must be the sight of
neatness, smiling faces, and flowers.

General Brooke and other American Off

reports that there is any widespread dis
satisfaction. considerable number oil
the Cuban soldiers will steadily oppose

may go into camp to make it seem expe-
dient for this nation TO pay the Cuban
army We are under no obligations 10 do
anything of the kind-either to lend
money for the purpose or to divert the
revenues of the island from public i'm

Gomez has not the shadow of a claim TO
payment unless Il Cuban government,

partment and the meat packers, on the
one hand, or by popular sentiment on the
other. That the decision will be accord

is matter of course. and favor or fear
is not to be considered.
1t is no violation of the proprieties to
comment on the significance of the plea
since it can have no bearing on the law
and the verdict. When General Eagan
made an attack on General Miles in Ian
