secretary of the Territory, who is
thought TO be the choice of President
Roosevelt. This impression has resulted
in Efforts to attack him, and certain in
terests are at work against him in
Washington, according to reports re
ceived here.
The other local candidate is Henry E
Cooper, former secretary and now super
intendent Of public works. Cooper has
been acting governor twice, during Ill
nesses or absences of Governor Dole
Cooper has the credit OF being an as
tute politician. He has the support of
the governor and large element In the
home rule ranks. In fact, Mrs. Theresa
Wilcox, wife OF the former delegate to
Congress. worked hard to get him an
Endorsement for his present position
from the last House. and succeeded IN
doing So
The influence enjoyed by Mrs. Wilcox
in the last House was a humiliating ex-
perience to the Republican party lead

election, and It showed how the Ha-
waiians, regardless OF party, stood to-

HOLY CROSS ACADEMY
OPENS ITS SESSIONS
Study of Foreign Languages Joined
to English Course.

At the Academy OF the Holy Cross in
Massachusetts, Avenue, the school year
began last Monday An exceptionally
large number of parents have enrolled
their little girls as students this year.
and the number of young ladies who
have entered gives the rooms of the ad-
vanced classes a busy and animated
appearance.
The mother superior of the Academy
Of the Holy Cross believes the modern
languages can be taught to little chill
dren By the conversational method in a
way so the little ones will hardly know
they are studying and that the result
will be a practical knowledge OF the
language. In following out this idea a
French class for little girls from seven
to twelve years old was conducted last
year with the best results. This class of
little girls demonstrates that the time
to learn language Is during childhood
days. In addition there is French
class for young ladies.
The academy makes a speciality OF
art and music and the high reputation
1t has gained in these branches is de-
served. The lecture courses are of a
high order and are so arranged that the
young women can get the most benefit,
in connection with their studies, from
them.
The mother superior believes, how
ever, that thorough education in Eng
lish is OF the highest Importance for
American girls. and all branches. &C
eording to the most approved methods.
are taught at this school. The aim OF
the sisters in charge is to give the girls
who attend the Academy OF the Holy
Cross a well-balaneed and symmetrical
education.
