FRANCS MURPHY
AT KAMEHAMEHA
He Makes an Effective Address
to the Students
There.

The service at the Kamehameha schoo
chapel last night was most beautifu
and impressive one The whole school
had gathered in the pretty little church
and the bright lights fell over a. multi
tude of earnest brown faces, grey uni
forms and white dresses.
The service began with the singing oil
few hymns, whereupon the president
of the school, Mr.. Dyke, read a Scrip
ture Iesson from the / Cor, 13.
The chanting of the Lords Prayer in
Hawaiian. which followed, sung by the
rich, deep voices of the pupils, was
rare and beautiful thing indeed.
After this Hawaii Ponoi' was sung
and Mr.. Murphy addressed the assem-

In his address he tried as usual to
speak from the hearers standpoint and
to get into the sympathy of the audi
ence. He succeeded splendidly. All the
faces were turned eagerly and earnestly
toward him. and nobody showed the
slightest sign of inattention.
The main point of Mr. Murphy's speech
was to show the great harm which in
diligence in intoxicating liquors works
upon the life of the young man and
woman. He quoted several examples or
the successful careers of young people.

NEW YORK, Sept. 4-Plans of the
lombia have been received by their agents
here, and if all has gone well, confrma-
tory news of startling nature is soon
to be expected.
The Red D steamer Philadelphia
brought a large mail for DIR. Restrepo
the agent for the revolutionary party in
this city. Interviewed, he said:
Altogether In Colombia we have now
an army of more than 10000 men, well
armed and equipped. General Tribe
Tribe has ten thousand well drilled troops
under him and, according to our advices,
was TO start on his campaign of inva-
sion of Colombia at a point below San
Cristobal on August %.
Before hts lines Is General Gonzales
Valencia, with nearly an equal number
of Colombia troops to oppose him.
AT Rio Chacfia, which Is the seaport
at the northern part of the Department
of Magdalena, with population of TO-
600, we have two generals with force of
5000 men, who now have the city sur.
rounded. General c. Castillo Is in COM
mand, with General j. NJ. Castillo
ed about equally between them.
Rio Chacha will be attacked both by
land and sea, and we expect, will speed
lily fall. Then we shall take Santa Mar

seaports of the Magdalena province. 1t

from any officer. By change now the
service of Major Robinson here will be
counted as tropical, while if he is al
lowed to stop here for longer time
and then comes the change to Manila,
there is a chance that he will have to
spend the full two years in the Phil
ippines. This is not desired by any of
the officers now going out, and they
take their service as soon as they can
get it, and get it over.
Major Robinson had expected that
during his time here he could have
got to work on the settling or the
question of the permanent site for the
post, but there are too many consider
ations which will enter into such a
matter to expect that anything will be
done very soon. The first step expect

toward the permanent post, will be
the selection Of a board of engineers

commandant at Camp Mckinley, is an
earnest advocate of the plan Of having
them as close to the guns they must
serve as they can be stationed. While
there has been some temporary con-
struction at the present site of the
post, it is not thought that there will
be a move from the leased grounds,
which might be followed by another
move before the governments property

quarters.
At Camp Mckinley the new COM
mandant is having made some inn
provements which will enable him to
make his home right in the camp.
For this purpose the old headquarters
building is having an addition put to
it, and this will serve as the home OF
the family Of Major Davis. There will
be nothing done there which can be
avoided as all the officers are of opin-
ion that it will be but short time

from the thoughtfulness of the Legis-
lature in preparing for the study of
taxation conditions. If it should ap-
pear that there really ought to be a
study made of the systems of the older
States, the Governor under the powers
of the laws of 1896 and 1898 could ap-
point such a commission, and using the
money, which hardly will be used to
send an Independent leader to the East
for information, have prepared for re-
port to the next Legislature, which was
to be the course of the present Com
mission, a measure which, while being
barren perhaps of single tax, will offer
a means of raising revenues which will
carry the Territory through at. all
times.
