GREET The
YOUNG FOLK
Honolulu Society Wei
comes Another
Bride.

Honolulu society formally greeted Mr.
and Mrs. w. r. Castle, Jr. last even
ing, the reception in honor of the young
couple being one of the most ENJOYABLE
events of the season and drawing to
the Castle home at Kinau and Victoria
streets representatives of all the old
families as well as many newcomers
to the city. 1t was one of the most
beautiful evening events of the year,
and for two hours the stream of guests
flowed past the receiving party.
Mrs. W. r. Castle. ST., presented the
visitors to the young people, and the
trio were constantly surrounded. The
receiving party stood at the corner of
the lanai, in front of a wall made of
Cape Jessamine vines twined over a
Japanese screen, the cool green being
relieved here and there by the insertion
of punches of white chrysanthemums,
which made the effect most pleasing.
Mrs. Castle, ST., received in a costume
of grey, jet %spangled net garniture adj
ding to the effect, while the young mat
ron of the house was gowned in white,
The house was decorated with flow
ers. vines and palms, everywhere there
being some green or blossom to re-
lieve the wall or open space. The draw
handsomest ported plants and shower
bouquets of cut flowers, and through
the apartments of the below stairs por-
ton of the house, there was repeated
the note of floral beauty.
The refreshments We're served in a
marquee on the lawn, where at small
partaken of by the hundreds of callers
during the evening. The marquee was
spacious and besides a wealth of palm
fronds and parasite vine decorations
there were strings of lanterns whose
bright coIors added to the beauty of
the scene. A quintette club vas sta
toned on the Waikiki porch and it's
music found way all over the great
house and the lawn where gathered
numbers of the guests of the evening.
The gathering was one of the pref
test of the eason as it was the largest,
and scarcely a face "a missing, for the
young people in whose honor the affair
was given are popular with everyone
and the formal welcome of the bride
was made the occasion as well of formal
introductions to many of those who
have not before had the opportunity
to greet her since her return from the
wedding trip abroad.
Adding to the color of the scene,
which was a brilliant one with the gay
gowning of the women, were the uni
forms of the naval officers from the YES
sells in port, who were present in force,
and whose visit was made a most pleas
ant one, as they met most of the society
folk of the city.
It was not until a late hour that the
guests voiced their CALCULATIONS and
good wishes, and partook of the splen-
did hospitality of the mansion. Despite
the rains of the evening there vas no
diminishing of interest of the callers,
as there was no diminution of their
numbers on account of the unpleasant
weather.

THE TEACHING OF ENGLISH.

The special emphasis that is laid up
on the teaching of English in some of
the schools of Hawaii has "a broader
meaning than many people suppose. One
easily understands thai where SO many
pupils are of Hawaiian, Asiatic and
Portuguese birth a strict drill in En-
glish is needed TO enable them to get
on at all in general studies; but this
merely that foreigners shall be taught
the language of the country but that
the children of English-speaking par
ents shall not have their language cor
rupted by foreign idioms.
An English-speaking child put in one
of the mixed schools of Hawaii Don
acquires a patois of his own. He gets
some Hawaiian, perhaps a good deal;
some Portuguese and, having picked up
japanese phrases from the nurse at
home, he add to them through asso-
citation with japanese youngsters at
school. If there are many Chinese pu-
pills they add to his vocabulary. Left
to himself he would grow to manhood
possessed of a fund of "pidgin English"
which would make him an object Of
criticism among educated people; and
it becomes the duty of his teachers
now to protect his heritage of speech
and pass him on into adult life with his
English undefled.

4ching Joints

In the fingers, toes, arms, and
other parts of the body, are joints
that are infamed and swollen by
rheumatism - that acid condition
of the blood which affects the mus
cles also.
Sufferers dread to move, espe-
cially after sitting or lying long,
and their condition is commonly
worse in wet weather.

A GARBAGE REFORM.

Tomorrow there will be presented to
sthe Board of Health a petition against
the daylight collection of garbage by
Japanese and Chinese ~scavengers.
eF4sese men gather slops from restaur-
ants and private houses and trundle
them about town at all hours of the
day, leaving foul doors in their wake.
Thefproposition is to confne their bust
ness % the night or earliest morning
hours, CHASING them in that respect
with the drivers of the odorless ex-
cavasors.
Such a rule would not be regarded as
improper by the Japanese, who are the
chief offenders, because it is one they
are accustomed to at home. The
scavenger in Japan never goes abroad
by day. At eleven p. m. he pes on
he streets, in the district allotted to
him, and long before daylight he is out
in the farming country with the offal
of the town. Such a law might well be
borrowed from the land OF the little
brown mar to restrain his nuisance
making ~propensities here.

AS we anticipated yesterday morn
ing. the first news from the coast
brought word of an increased volcanic
eruption. Nothing was heard from
Bandaisan, in Japan, but a Central
American volcano was in full display,
which, perhaps, accounts for the lurid
a~fterglows which have been visible of
late on every clear evening.
Had the fierce ashes of some fiery peak
Been hurled SO high they ranged around
the world
For day by day through many a blood
red eve
The wrathful sunset glared.
Confidently with the news from Cen
trail America comes the report from
our own volcano of a renewed outbreak,
the display being the most magnificent
in twenty years. Soufriere is also
threatening. Quite likely when full adj
vices are in, other manifestations of
seismic forces will be reported, as the
time seems to be one of general unrest
underfoot.

1t will be an historical event when, in
the course of the coming month, the
American Board of Commissioners for
Foreign Missions withdraws from its
outpost in these islands. The work of
the Board has been coincident with the
civilization of Hawaii and all the labor
of American Protestant evangelization
was vested in it up to 1853. Since then
the Hawaiian Board, a local branch of
the national organization, has carried
the heavier part of the white mans
burden, though the American Board
still has men on its payroll here and is
the owner in trust Of a large amount
of valuable property. Probably the ma
terial interests as well as the spiritual
responsibilities of the parent organize
ton will figure in the coming transfer.

a Waterway 20 the Gulf Would Not
Benefit Texas Ports or Markets..
Some time aga the National Business
league Of Chicago wrote a letter TO Mr b..
r. Bonner Of Houston, asking for his opiu-
ION az TO the value TO this secuon of n
direct water communication between the
gulf ana the middle West

siderable extent that II the Chicago drain

fits would accrue to the Stntes 90 the Mis-
sissipp valley and the Southwest, as We'll

Mr.. Bonner, answering this inquiry, stated
that In hls opinion, a direct water CON.

would undoubtedly divert the immense

To Be Taken by Hartman as First Step

New York. August Pc. II. Hartman,
president of the Southern and Union Pa
clic railroads. is to he elected president
of the Wells Fargo Express company at
a meeting of the company next week,
unless the present plans be upset at the
last moment The Southern Pacific COM
pany has owned a controlling interest In
the express company for many years,
and the election of Mr.. Hartman would.
therefore, be a natural thing, according
to remarks today by one of Mr.. Harm

The office of president of the express
company has been vacant since the death
of j. j. Valentine, several months ago.
In the meantime Dudley Evans has been
acting president of the company
The report that Mr. Hartman is to be
elected president brought forth some re-
marks in Wall street as to the election
of the often rumored combination or
express companies. 1t was declared IN
certain quarters that the election viii
be the first step in such a combination.
A close business associate OF Mr.. Harrl-
man. who Is also a railroad man. said
however, that a combination of the eX-
be against the policy of the business.
express companies, he said, are
owned generally by the railroads over
which they run, or at least they are
controlled In the interest of the roads.
That is done merely for the convenience
OF the roads, who do not care 10 enter the
express business.
