COL, FRENCH OF
SALVATION ARMY
TELLS THE WAR CRY ABOUT HIS
VISIT TO HAWAII-WHAT HE
SAW.

A recent issue of the Salvation Army
War Cry contains the following inter-
view with Col French who was here
some weeks ago making an inspection
OF work of the Army in this Territory.
well, Colonel, we are glad to see you
back from your trip to our comrades on
the islands of the Pacific. Won't you
please tell US something for the benefit
of the readers of the War Cry, about
the work over there, as no doubt they
are all interested, and will be glad to
know what great things God is doing
among the many nationalities repre-
sented there?'
Certainly! 1 am glad to say that
the work there is very encouraging and
has a decidedly healthy appearance. On
the way from San Francisco to Homo
lulu concert was held on the S. S.
Alameda, and l was requested to take
part in the same. OF course i refused,
but said 1 would address the people if
they desired me to do so. They glad
ly .acquiesced, and 1 had the privilege
of telling them of the work of the Army
and the good God was helping this or
ganization to do in His name. The
Captain of the ship and the other OFF,
GERS and passengers spoke highly of the
work land the next day a young lady
borrowed my cap and went around and
took up a real, good, big collection for
the work"
How did the work in Honolulu COM
pare with your last visit, Colonel"
VERY well, indeed. There is a great
improvement in the general organiza-
ton of the work. For instance, there
is fine little brass band in full uniform
and properly organized and commits
stoned. Brother Cannon, the bandmas-
ter, is a trophy of grace, and his con-
version and subsequent life has made
quite an impression upon the city for
good Captain Hutchinson and her
sister are doing well there"
How many meetings did you hold in
Honolulu"

A LANDMARK GONE.

LAHAINA May "A considerable
portion of the ST. Cross property has
been leased to c. All Nee who will
make improvements shortly. The old
stone house, and a piece of ground
around it, are reserved for the use of
the incumbent, as heretofore. The
building was constructed originally for
a marine Hospital by the U. S. Govern
ment, lease having been obtained from
the Hawaiian government. This was
during the period when numerous
whaling vessels We're often anchored in
the stream, near Lahaina. The super
intendent of the Hospital also kept
drug store in the town. When the
whaling industry declined, the hospital
was no longer needed and the property
was purchased by Bishop Willis. He
established a church school, and sew
eral sisters We're appointed teachers.
Some of the buildings have been torn
down. A small cemetery which former
ly belonged to the hospital, may still
be seen in one of the canefields, not far
from the Roman Catholic church.
About 16 months ago the St. Cross lot
was flooded during a violent storm, and
a heavy growth of underbrush subse-
quently sprang up This has been nicely

DARTMOUTH
COLLEGE LIFE
AND SURROUNDING
OF DANIEL WEBSTER'S ALMA
MATER SOME CHARACTERISTICS

Dartmouth is still reached by stage.
When the freshman gets off at the lit
tie wooden station on the Passumpsic
division labeled Norwich and Han
over he finds a line of antique vehi-
cles drawn up along the platform.
Their battered and arklike appearance
speaks them relics of some old stage
line. But a whole train-load of stu
dents in some way manages to STOW
itself in and on to them. Awkward
farmer boys of the hills, from district
school and country academy and the
rule of the country parson, are shaken
up together with a more cosmopolitan
stream from the cities and strong dele
cation of alumni of the big prep
schools, inclined wthal to be a little
Dlase. And the Dartmouth life will
force all to take on its own distin-
gushing characteristics in the four
years of semi-monastic existence
ahead. Each somehow finds some part
of the old barge" to which he can
cling, and is already taking his chances
with the crowd ami trying to make a
place for himself as the old convey
ance rolls across the long bridge over
the fair Connecticut, and crawls up the
half-mile slope to the college campus
The Old Row, Holmes "Cloisters of a
hill-girt plain" will be his first vista.
In few hours lights will twinkle OUT
to him from hundreds of windows
round that quadrangle, and the sound
of song will echo along the corridors.
On the morrow squads of football play
ers Will dot the campus, and crowds
will inundate the bookstores. Town
and college will then have completed
their annual regeneration.
Like other New England coIIepaS
Dartmouth enjoys beautiful surround
ings. 1t stands on a plateau, well up
above the river, and looks off on high
err hills all round. In every direction
heavy woodlands swell, forests more
somber than in southern New England,
on account of the dominance of the
eVergreens. From point to point one
may see the rivel threading away to
the northward or disappearing to the
south beyond the base of Mt. Ascutney.
The nearer view gives wandering
streets shaded by great elms and ma
pies, and seldom pretentious, but sub
stantial college buildings. In their
general conformation the buildings
form a quadrangle about the l0-acre
campus. Paths cross and recross this
field filled with files of students at the
call of each lecture bell. Along one
side the old row stands--in the center,
big, white, old Dartmouth hall, hand
somely proportioned and surmounted
by its graceful belfry tower. This is
the Oldest building now standing, and
contains the old chapel; now the coll
lege forum. Dartmouth has enjoyed
building renaissance during the past
decade that has added many excellent
structures, and the building still goes
The Hawaiian star. [volume] (Honolulu [Oahu]) 1893-1912, 1903-05-04

on. But the greatest addition for the
comfort of the students has been the
installation of the heating plant. All
the college buildings now get their
heat from a central station, the tall
chimney of which makes landmark
for the country round. The universal
warmth marks a difference from the
old days at the beginning of the last
century, when every one kept warm
as best he could. Stories still go round
of cannon balls heated at the common
fire and carried to rooms to take the
chill off. Il is said they made a great
racket when rolled downstairs after
midnight. Warmth is an important
consideration in the long, severe Han
over winters.
AS for the town Dartmouth is Han
over, Aside from the students and
their instructors, only handful of peo-
pie live there and they mostly occupy
themselves in providing for the college
The whole township of Hanover does
not claim many bona fide residents.
The students We're allowed to register
there one year in order to vote in the
national elections. In the spring a
number of them decided to exercise
their voting privilege in local affairs,
and joined the sleighng parties out to
the town house There they proceeded
to dispose of the towns money with
liberal hand new town house of
distorted dimensions, a plank walk to
Lebanon, five miles away, and other
before unthought of improvements
were voted Needless to say, the town
never acted on any of the measures
carried on that occasion, but some
weeks later the natives quietly called a
meeting and transacted the necessary
regular business. The prank is char
acteristic. The students inherit the
village and the town and each incom-
ing class enters into its heritage to
enjoy it. and undismayed by the SIMS
ter motto on the college seal: "Vox
CLAIMANTS in deserto'-the voice of one
crying in the wilderness The wilder
ness Is good farming country, but
certainly a long way from the large
centers of population. Perhaps the
founder had John the Baptist suggest
ed to him by a premonition of the
shaggy sweater-clad stage of the col
lege. However that may be, Boston
and the nearest theaters are $50 miles
away. The men must depend on them
selves for companionship and amuse-
ment If they go calling they must call
on eacn other. Thus the freshman finds
himself precipitated into uniform
boxed-up atmosphere little affected by
currents from without, and under its
influence year by year rounds toward
the Dartmouth type by the close daily
intercourse with all the rest of the col
lege'-Springfield Republican.
