man will shine like Il beacon through
the mists of ages-an object of rev

should be to us an occasion of solemn
pride that in the great crises of
our history such a man was not de-

of a renown such as Washington's and
Lincoln's and McKinley's is beyond all

A TypIcaiIy American Life.

The life of William Mckinley was.
from his birth To his death, typically
American. There is no environment.
| should say, anywhere else in the
world which could produce just such
character. lie was born into that
way of life which elsewhere is called
the middle class, but which in this
country is so nearly universal as to
make of other classes an almost neg
ligible quantity, He was neither rich
nor poor-neither proud nor humble;
he knew no hunger. he was not sure
of satisfying; no luxury which could
cncryate mind or body. His parents
were sober, God-fearing people,
intelligent and upright; with
out pretcntions and without
humility. lie grew up in the
company of boys like himself; whole
some, honest, self-respecting. They
looked down on nobody; they never
felt it possible they could he looked
down upon. Their houses were the
homes of probity, piety. patriotism.
They learned i'm the admirable school
readers of fifty years ago the lessons
of heroic and splendid life which
have come down from the past. They
read i'm their weekly newspapers the
story of the worlds progress, in
which they were eager to take part.
and of the sins and wrongs of civil
zation, with which they burned to
do battle. 1t was a serious and
thoughtful time. The boys of that
day felt dimly, but deeply. that days
of sharp struggle and high achieve
ment were before them. They looked
at life with the wondering yet reso-
lutte eyes of young esquire in his
vigil of arms. They felt time was
coming when to them should be adj
dressed the stern admonition of the
apostle: Quit you like men; be
strong"
At seventeen years of age William
Mckinley heard the call of his coun-
try. He was the sort of youth to
whom "A military life i'm ordinary
times would possess no attractions.
His nature was far different from
that of the ordinary soldier. He had
other dreams of life. it's prizes and
pleasures. than that of marches and
battles. But to his mind there was
no choice or question. The banner
floating i'm the morning breeze was
the beckoning gesture of his country.
The thrilling notes of the trumpet
called him-him and none other-in-
to the ranks. He was of the stuff of
which good soldiers are made. Had
he been ten years older he would have
entered at the head of a company and
come out at the head of n division
He did what he could. He enlisted as
a private; he learned TO obey. His
serious. sensible ways; his prompt.
alert efficiency soon attracted the at
tention of his superiors. He was so

ON MERRY ISLE
Young Island May Yet Become
a Honolulu Pleasure
Resort.

Tourists. when arriving in the port
OF Honolulu, do not meet with a very
fine view along the waterfront. Old
part of the hullS submerged, old tum-
ble-down houses on the wharves, and
big piles of coal in their rear, with
roads leading from the wharves. don't
give the front door to the enhancing
islands a very good appearance. Yet
one of the first moves to change this
condition of affairs may be made with
in the next year. Young Brothers have
plans to make their island a thing of
beauty and a joy forever to people who
enjoy salt water and waterfront seem
cry.
If the electric system is extended 10
the waterfront they may change the
whole aspect of Young Island by re-
moving the present marine plants and
erecting a pretty little casino on the
island. The best of refreshments could
be served. There would be a dancing
ball. A launch service from Fort street
would be utilized to carry visitors over
to the place, and Hawaiian music
would be waited all along the water by
a string band stationed in the casino.
Just imagine how nice il would be
for one on a sitting hot night to take a
seat on a veranda chair, sip lemonade.
listen to the music, puff at your cigar,
and watch the brilliant lights of Ho-
noluIu, the black outlines of ships,
masts and spars, and far in the dis
tance the serpent-like lights of Pacific
Heights. And not one mosquito-for

l
Captain Mcclure. of the ship Fort
George. which made such Iong. pas

Australia at the same time as a GER

in this port
According to the story the Yankee
skipper visited Adelaide, South Austria

the American consul. Mr.. Chas A
Murphy. Murphy and the skipper went
in to the bar to get a drink They were
waited on by a pretty barmaid and
without any ado the captain went

him. and q couple of days later the. knot
was tied, The Port Adelaide waterfront
thought the affair great joke, and
sent the particulars of the hasty we'd
ding to an American newspaper man
who was conducting a small newspaper
in Adelaide. An article appeared in
this paper roasting the skipper and

J. This struck the shippers eye and he
started at once from the port to Ade-

called upon Consul Murphy, exhibited
copy Of the weekly paper and a re-

to shoot the Yankee editor.

peeling off his coat, started working at

the skipper entered.
where's that Yankee editor? Unless
you want TO get hurt you better send
him along about as quick as a gale o.

sea.
The willy editor announced that he'll

the Secretary was all smiles

For eight solid hours the secretary"

saying that he had once been there

the secretary and confded to him
that he had a big Smith e. Wesson"
which he would show the editor as soon
as he arrived.
When closing time came the "secre-

ATTENDANCE IS LARGE
AT SUMMER SCHOOL
Ambitious Teachers Increase Attend
ance From 923 in 1901 to 1,1o5-Man-
ual Training System Expands.

d. L. Kiehle, who has had charge OF
the summer school for teachers, has
submitted to State Superintendent Oh
sen report for the seasons of 1901
and 1902
In 1901 the term was extended to SIX
weeks, and this year the term was
shortened to four weeks owing to the
meeting of National Educational as
ISOLATION. The registrations in the uni
versity section were 302 in 1901 and
3eS this year. In the elementary sec
ton the registration was 629 in 1901
and 1877 this year. In his report Prof.
Kiehle says:
"An important feature of the school
has been the provision made for the
preparation and Improvement of teach
ers having charge of the various forms
of Industrial education in our schools.
The demand is growing that children
should be given manual as we'll as IN
tellectual skill. In this interest prov1s-
ion was made for classes in sewing,
dietetics, drawing and manual training
in woodwork. The practical value OF
these courses is unquestioned. 1t only
remains to determine upon their finan-
cial support.
"In view of the special interest taken
in agriculture, l believe this school
may be a great aid in solving the
problem of how to introduce agricul-
tural education in the rural schools. =
The attendance at the school in 1901
included $50 high school graduates;
lie normal school graduates, and 108
college graduates. This year the high
school graduates had increased to 577;
the normal school graduates to 232,
and the college graduates to l23.

BAKING POWDER MEN
MUST OBSERVE LAWS
Some Companies Said to Have Been
Dodsing the State Regard
ing Labels.

'"This scheme of the baking powder
companies to make the label required
by law more of an advertisement than
anything else has gone so far that we
have got to stop it." said Dairy Com
missioner Mcconnell yesterday.
The commissioner and his assistant
had just finished conference with the
representative of a Chicago baking
powder company, and the Chicago men
had been given to understand that
there would have to be change made
in the label on their goods or the mat
ter would be taken into the courts.
The law requires that the label on
the baking powder cans shall read
This baking powder is composed of
the following Ingredients" and then
the names of the ingredients follow.
Instead of doing this a number of tbs
companies make the label part of an
advertisement, and obscurely hidden in
the reading matter are the names of
the ingredients.
Some of the companies have been
lodging us for a year or So" said
Commissioner Mcconnell, land we
have decided to enforce the law. The
representatives of the offending COM
panies have asked us to make a ruling
as to what we desired, but we have
decided to refer them to the law, and
if there is any ruling to be given to
allow the courts to make it. The in
tent of the law is to let the consumer
know by the label just what the in
gradients are, and the plan Of making
this a part of the advertisement of
the powder will have to be done away
with"
