The GLORIOUS Fourth" was celebrated
with all due honOrs and enthusiasm in
the territory of Hawaii yesterday From
early morning until early this morning,
her cosmopolitan crowd of citizens aid
ed by the many aliens who always cor
daily take up an American holiday,
pressed into patriotic service every
minute of the day and when finally
they retired, tired out, it was with the
knowledge of a happy day, well and
fittingly spent in combining patriotic
sentiment with personal enjoyment.
Many citizens helped to awake the
sleeping echoes of the hills at sunrise
yesterday morning. Down at the capl-
tol grounds the salute to the Fourth
pealed across the quiet town as the
early sun gilded the fluttering stars
and Stripes" that were run up to the
gaffs and mast heads of every Flagstaff
and every vessel along the waterfront.
All over town, crackers began to eX-
plode and revovers, rifles and shot
guns sputtered another welcome.
Flags were displayed and the sleepy
town awoke to the prospect of holiday
which it was everyone's duty to observe
and which was crowded in it's every
minute by program of the most varied
nature, all it's events free to every citi-
zen. Every body had busy day. Early
down to Pearl Harbor by yacht, steam
er and train, to enjoy the boat and
yacht races Many stayed in town and
thronged the streets for the parade of
the military and private bodies with
their floats and typical groups. The
Scottish citizens quietly held picnic
at Moanalua. Soon after lunch those
who had gone to the harbor returned
to swell the crowd that had attended
the literary exercises with the patriotic
speeches and songs at the opera house
and watched the parade. A few still
stayed at the lochs until later in the
day.
In the afternoon a record attendance
thronged to the campus of Oahu college
where the national game was played
between four mines and the younger
element held field sports.
The evening saw big reunion. Every
one was in town and every one saw
the striking and artistic illuminations
on the Capitol building and enjoyed the
fireworks before they went into the
theater for an hour or two or attended
the big reception held by the governor
his staff and a brilliant corps of re-
ceiving ladies. And all wound up al
the ball.
This proved the eliminating point o
a well arranged series of events anC
proved a magnet even to the mos
tired of citizens and citizeneses. Th'
