HAWAIIANS'
PILGRIMAGE

BUFFALO, June 10.-The native Ha-
waiian Village on the Midway made
pilgrimage yesterday afternoon to the
[Spectatorium of Jerusalem and the
Crucifixion of Christ. The Rev DIR.
Merrill conducted religious services in
the village before the pilgrimage. He
spoke eloquently.
The villagers formed in a long column
of twos, paired men and women. Tobin,
king of the Midway, and Doc Smith led
the way. They marched solemnly down
the Midway to the Spectacular. A big
crowd followed, but the gates were open
only to the villagers and few we'll
known guests, headed by former POST
master Baker, Col. E. w. Mcconnell,
the Rev. DR.. Merrill and others. A num-
Der of prominent Buffalo men and wo-
men were in the party. The Hawaiians
filed in silently and assembled to the
viewpoint, where the panorama of the
great day of crucifixion is revealed.
1t is fine creation. The reach of
view is magnificent. All the familiar
Biblical scenes and persons are there
from the Joppa Road and the Pool of
Hezekiah to Calvary, the cross and
Christ. Mr.. Ballard delivered the lee
ture on the scene. He did it well. The
Hawaiians listened eagerly, attentively.
He paused as the day darkened and the
thunder pealed and the lightning fash
ed and the veil Of the Temple was rent.
Then, from above, sweet and rich and
clear sounded The Holy City," sung by
Augustus Miller, the tenor. The Hawai-
ians were deeply moved. They stood
with bowed heads until the light came
again, beginning with soft glow above
the figure on theScross.
Mele, tho Hawaiian girl, spoke to one
of the men. He spoke to others. Then
softly, sweetly the Kamehameha Glee
Club of the villagers begin to sing 81
Cannot Always Find the Way" It was
beautiful. They sang 1t through twice,
and still no one moved to go. At length
Mr.. Ballard told again the story of the
cross
The villagers heard it in silence, then
thanked Col. Mcconnell and went out
into the sunshine, singing softly as they
went.

Commissioned Wray Taylor is quite
right in laying the Tantalus vandalism
to Professor Stubs rather than to
Jared Smith. Stubbs is the kind of an
official who drops into Hawaii, knows
at a glance what 1t needs" and issues
orders accordingly His choice of the
wooded ridges Of Tantalus, where the
sou has been exhausted by eucalypti
and where there was no end of trouble
and expense originally to make even the
gum tree grow, was, in the opinion of
men whose expert acquaintance with
Hawaiian agriculture covers decades,
thoroughly unscientific. Further than
this, the choice and what followed
damaged the good looks of Honolulu's
most attractive suburb. However, as
Mr.. Smith observes, there is no use in
crying over split milk-or even book
scientists. as we may add.

Recent Investigations, of which de-
tafls We're given at the last meeting of
the Biological Society, of Washington,
have shown that many diseases of
plants, as those of the cabbage and
tomato, are caused by bacteria. It
was found that the diseases considered
were mostly conveyed from plant to
plant by beetles, whose bites inocu-
lated the healthy plants with bacteria,
derived from the diseased plants on
which they had previously fed. Hence
the remedy for the disease was 10
wage war on the beetles.

Cuba's acceptance of the Plat
amendment, which guarantees the
right of the United States to intervene
for the preservation of the island s
peace, and which secures for us certain
coaling and naval stations there, is
the third step towards the achieve

was the war of 1898; the second the
treaty OF Paris. The remaining steps
are the organization of a government
and the withdrawal of the United
