REQUIEsCAT.

The services that will be being held
today in Kawaiahao church as this pa
per goes to press, will be of a thor
Oughly cosmopolitan character, and
will voice the feelings Of our cosmo-
politan community. The program
which was decided upon yesterday
will give, or is giving at this
present moment the opportunity for
men representing varied nationalities
TO pay their tribute to the late Queen
and Empress. How much she merited
this tribute the cosmopolitan meeting
of today must show. What deceased
monarch has in the memory Of any of
us, or in the knowledge Of historians
called forth universal respect to the
excellence of character and the great
humanizing attributes which dead Vic
toria has? The answers will be, None!
Monarchs and statesmen and rulers
may have, on their deaths, called forth
the feeling of their own immediate peo-
pie, they may have called forth the
feeling of allied people, but to call forth
universal mourning and respect has
Among those who have spoken or
are speaking today are Rev. j.
Osborne, who represents the British, a
Canadian, to whose fellow colonists
only few weeks ago the Queen spoke
words of praise for the noble way in
which they had volunteered to protect
the empire and hold it's integrity. A
representative Of the Empire is Mr.
Osborne.
The Rev. II. H. Parker speaks for
the Hawaiians. Mr.. Parker's father
and Mr.. Parker have labored among
Hawaiians for the greater part of a
century. He represents the best OF
Hawaiian thought. He has lived his
life among our gentle and lovable peo-
pie, and he knows how thoroughly they
appreciated the virtues and believed in
the greatness of the woman who has
passed away.
The Rev. w. NJ Kincaid speaks for
that mighty nation, which like a stall
wart son is the pride and the glory of
it's progenitOrs. The son and the par
ent disagreed. The parent, as many a
parent past and to come, was in the
wrong. But time healed the breach
and no one did more to heal the breach
than Victoria and her husband Albert
Nothing could be more fitting than that
the clerical representative of this great
nation should address the assembled
people, upon such an occasion, on be-
half of those he represents.
The committee have done their work
well, and the result must be our honest
effort to show sympathy and honor to
one of the greatest of women.

The water tunnel man reports his
success. Every one wishes him success
and success to every one who can make
a blade Of grass grow, where never a
blade of grass grew before. But he
does not seem able to solve some of
our problems We have tried in some
places, and have signally failed, be-
cause our water supply did not come
up to our expectations. But there are
those who believe that there is water
to be obtained, if We only knew how
to get it. The rain falls upon the just
and upon the unjust. 1t falls upon
the places that need it to support a
population and it falls upon places
where no human being is to be seen.
AS far as these Islands are concerned
the rain falls all over them. If any
one understood how TO manage the wa
ter that falls from the skies upon our
favored isles, there would not be bar
rem spot in them. Even now, millions
upon millions of gallons of beautiful,
bubbling, sparkling water go to waste.

people from tuberculosis in January
1901 is hardly any Improvement upon
the average monthly deaths from this
disease in 1900, the latter was is 1-3 per
month.
When we turn to fevers January
1901 comes equal to 1899. In the
month of January, 1899, there was one
death from typhoid, and one death
from malarial fever. In the same
month for 1901 there were 2 deaths
from typhoid fever, and none from
malarial fevers. In 1899, however,
there were chronicled deaths
from Hawaiian fever" whatever that
may be. The Star though often asking
the question, never got an answer,
though the name appeared in the
Board of Health reports of 1899 and
1900 and must have been recognized
by the physicians of the Board. 1t no
longer appears in the list of 1901.
During 1899, there We're altogether 80
cases of typhoid fever Al cases Of ma
larial fevers and 81 cases of any mys-
FERROUS fever, tabulated merely as
such. 1t gave 134 cases in all. The "a
cases of fever" should be divided be-
tween typhoid and malarial no doubt.
In 1900, there We're 105 deaths, from
typhoid, "a from malarial and 8 from
Hawaiian fever" giving 1872 cases of
death and not warranting the statement
made that fever was increasing in the
city. What was warranted was that
there was better classification, and
deaths from felvile diseases We're more
accurately reported.
To turn from death to life only 30
births We're reported for the district
of Honolulu for the month of January
1901. Since the Board commenced call
ing for these statistics in October,
1900, there have been reported in
October, births, in November 80, in
December 40. Total births for four
months 113. Total deaths for the same
four months Ais. These are strange
figures for the statistician abroad. The
fact is births are not reported and the
Legislature should devise means for
making such reports compulsory.
Either the law or the executive is very
much at fault. When proper birth
statistics are collected it would be well
to publish them by nationality.

WORTHY OF STUDY.

The number of deaths reported by
the Board of Health for the district Of
Honolulu, shows a questionable condi-
ton of health. During January of 1899,
there were SO deaths. In the same
month of 1900, there We're 176 deaths, of
which however 30 We're from plague.
January 1901, gives us 112 deaths. The
population of the Honolulu district is
not much larger in 1901 than it was
in 1899, and the difference in the num-
Der of deaths may be quite explainable.
In point of fact basing upon the re-
port of 1899, the annual death rate as
represented by the January report was
Bliss per thousand, while the annual
death rate for January, 1901, %ased
upon the figures of the recent census,
was 1920 per thousand. OF course it NAV
be that since the census was taken
there has been considerable increase in
the population, and therefore more
chance of death, but from careful study
OF the district one would be apt to saw
II mas decreased rather than increas-
ed in its population since the census
1t is very unfortunate that there are
no figures giving the death rate of the
various nationalties. This of course
Is unavoidable. When the Federal
census gets ready, it will give rs the
information upon this point, and when
1t comes it will be highly interesting.
AT present we must be content TO wait
in patience.

There has been considerable curiosity
among a few in the Islands as to
whether the present Duke of York be-
came Prince of Wales, ipso facto, by
his father becoming King. In each
case there is a ceremony to be gone
through. If, upon the death of Queen
Victoria, Edward VII has not been pro
claimed" the machinery of government
would for a moment have come to a
standstill The matter of the Prince
OF Wales is not so important, but the
Duke of York does not become Prince
of Wales till he has so been created
by patent. If the patent did not issue,
he would not be Prince of Wales. The
present King Edward VII, was born
on November 9, 1871, but by birth he
did not become Prince of Wales. He
did not receive his patent as Prince
Of Wales till December A. 1871. Before
that he might by courtesy be called
Prince of Wales, but he was not so
IN reality.

Food Inspector Shorey has been do
ing good work, and the Board of Health
is giving him a freer hand The law
as it stands now, forbids the Inspector
acting without the permission of the
Board of Health. The exposure of the
many brands of cotton seed oil, under
the name of salad oil, Lucca oil and
so forth, which deceive the public while
keeping within the law is a very whole
some piece Of work. The battle against
adulterated milk has been waged to a
successful issue. The Food Inspector
is to be congratulated upon the show
ing that he has made.

There We're a good many remarks
sometime ago about the leper Pratt's
being retained here, and not being re-
turned to the Coast. The difficulty was
to get him off without having any
publicity, because the latter meant re-
fusal by the steamers. He went some
time ago and is now in San Francisco.
May San Francisco enjoy his company.

Rev. DIR. Easton's Stirring Words to
His Congregation.

The Eastern Presbyterian Church held a
vast congregation at the night services
to near Rev DR.. Thomas Chalmers Eas-
ton the pastor, deliver a sermon the ba-
sis of which was The Assassination of
President Mckinley" The text was taken
from Isaiah xiv Jl-l2: IAN joy is dark
ened. the mirth of the land is gone. In
the city is left desolation and the gate is
smitten with destruction DIR. Easton
spoke In part as follows:
THE great republican empire sits in a
dark and mournful Gethsemane of be-
reavement- Gods chosen and annointed
ruler, the Chief Magistrate of the nation,
sleeps his silent. pulseless sleep, while
eighty millions of people Of every station
express deep personal loss and voice the
bitterness of a national calamity. All joy
is darkened and the mirth of the land is
gone. Great commonwealth. with their
magnificent metropolitan centres-cities
teemiug with immense populatiOnS-are
draped in all the sad habiliments of
mourning and wailirg in every articula-
tion of woe can be heard, revealing a
profound. heartfelt. and universal grief
throughout the land, for the beauty OF our
American Israel Is slain.
But this deed of horror that has
shocked the whole of Christendom at a
time when the whole nation was happy
and prosperous, when all the wounds OF
the old feud were healed, and the sweet

a United States Senator can, in blood as
cold as that of a snake declare he has no

he had the inclination and found the time
to perform his duties as a member of the
church of his youthful choice
THE natural gifts which made him con-
spicuous and popular were mellowed and
sanctified by the graces of the spirit. and
thus he easily won and retained the favor
of all with whom he came IN contact
Strong in faith. rich in hope. and full of
charity, he has fought good fight We
are not surprised TO learn that he glo-
riously finished his course declaring in
the very valley of the shadow of death
that it was Gods way. let his will be

also been deeply touched with his exhibit
tion of tender affection for his devoted

THE GREAT SOUL AT PEACE.
Anxious for Life, Yet Not Afraid 20
Die, Says the Rev. NJ. Pierce.

At All Souls Unitarian Church yester-
day morning the services were conducted
by the pastor the Rev. Ulysses Grant B.
Pierce. He discussed in his discourse the
Complementary character of the two ex-
pressions of Christ, Peace j give unto
you and II come not TO bring you peace,
but flaming sword" which he reconeiled
as signifying the central peace in the
heart of endless agitation within the soul
and life of the Saviour. The references to
the tragedy which has resulted in the
death of President Mckinley were brief
and his sermon was not of memorial
character. Mr.. Pierce announced that ne
would deliver a memorial sermon on
Thursday next. the day appointed by
President Roosevelt for memorial OBJ
servance. Mr.. Pierce said in his sermon
yesterday:
,The man of e-eat soul is at peace with
himself. becaus. the problems of the
world do not rest upon his shoulders
alone In the drama OF life he knows that
he need not act every part. but to be
hero in his own part.
There is the peace and repose OF tnat
assassin whose bullet caused the death
of the President. Such is the peace OF the
tiger, of moral turpitude. There was u
deeper peace in the soul of the good man
whom he killed, the peace of the man
anxious for life, yet not AFRAID 20 dle.
And the Younger generation has had no
greater example of central peace IN the
heart of endless agitation than In the lie
and death of our President

Sacrifice. Says DIR. Van SchaicS.
The Rev. John Van Schaick. jr.. pastor
of the Universaiist Church of Our Father,
preached on the subject of the death of
President Mckinley to a large congrega-
ton yesterday morning. The pulpit plat
5orm was draped in mourning.
For his text Mr. Van Schaick chose
John xi: %. &c. u am the resurrection and
the life" He began by saying that the
events of the past week has brought all
again face to face with the great prob
! lens of life and of death. He then
passed in rapid review the arguments IA
vorable to the doctrine of the immortal
ity of the soul
1--WE come here today" he continued.
bowed down with sorrow and gloom
No matter how strong our faith. how
bright our hope, when we think of the
awful work of the assassin's bullet, of
the deadly success of his plans. of the
apparent triumph of evil over good, our
sky darkens and our faith futters close
TO the ground.
But this is the temptation of the
ages-to falter before death. Deep in our
hearts something tells US better. Some
thing speaks to us of hereafter. Some
thing intimates Immortality and that
something is the voice of God.
Let us look up. not down, today No
matter how black the night which has
settled over the land, God still reigns,
and this nation, favored by him. rests
on the eternal foundation Of his love.
1t is richer by far than a week ago. 1t
has the legacy of an upright noble life
and of a brave and most beautiful death.
Politics will be purer courts win be
safer, laws viii be firmer. because Will
liam Mckinley has lived and died.
Every citizen viii love his country
with a purer, more ,nselfsh love when
he remembers this last soldier of the Re
public who has sanctihed our soil with
his heroic blood.
Immortality seems surer. heaven
seems nearer, God more real. tender and
true. because OF the rare flower of faith
which opened its snowy petals above the
Presidents dying bed.

AN END TO ANARCHY.
The Rev. DIR. McI<i,n Says the People
Will Stamp 1t Ont.


At the Church of the Epiphany yester-
day morning the service was appro-
priateIy adapted to the solemn character
of the day. A specially prepared musical
programme was rendered On Thursday
! in accordance with the proclamation oil
President Roosevelt there viii be memo
rial services at the church conducted by
the pastor the Rev. R. II. Mckim, ID. u.
In the course of his discourse yeSter-
day Dr. Mckim spoke OF the over
shadowing topic as follows:
I'VE may be very sure, my brethren,
that the ignominious failure which befeii
the attempts of Caiphas and Judas
against the anointed Christ will uiti-
mately .overtake all plots against truth
and righteousness on this earth. The
Almighty has not vacated his throne.
He is the ruler and the judge OF the
world. ffis hand of unerring wisdom is
guiding the course of events and order
ing the evolutions OF human history to
his own sublime ends
But one thing we know. The success
of the plot against our PRESIDENT Is olily
for the moment The assassin has striek-
en- him down TO death and this mighty
nation is today bereaved-sorrcwiuiiy De
reayed, because its chosen ruler has peen
slain But the real ultimate purpose Oh

If he had any, viii isnominiously and ut

Their blow was aimed through Presi-
dent Mckinley at our Governmental law
and order and justice and civiliza tion-
Too well did that blow succeed in strlk-
ing down that noble man who ruled in
Integrity and purity and wisdom over the
destinies of the American people. BIZ
has the assassin's bullet reached its ulti-
mate object? Have order and justice and
government been wounded or weakened
BY chat wicked shot which was fired in
Buffalo nine days ago?
"On the contrary, the shot has fallen
far short of its object The order or So
ciety has not been touched The frame
work of government has been strengthen
ed not weakened. The sword of justice
has been sharpened. not sheathed. and 1t
will descend at length not only upon the
wretched rniscrednt who did the dark and
cruel deed but upon the thing which ne
represented, that foul shape of anarchy
which has TOO long been permitted to
stalk about IN this land Of freedom, poll
luting it by it's vile presence and uahin-
dered plotting its schemes of assasSina-
.ion in our midst.
Yes. this seeming. triumph of anarchy
will become the instrument OF its destruc-
