by her selection of him as arbitrator
in the dispute with Spain regarding
the Caroline islands, and her deferen-
tial acceptance of his decision in
favor of the weaker power. His sue
cess in this arbitration induced the
pope to declare his readiness to act as
arbitrator in other disputes for the
benefit OF the whole of Europe and
of Christianity; but for this, his holi-
ness declared it to be essential that
he should be restored his liberty as an
independent temporal sovereign. This
demand, however. met with no re-
sponse, as far as foreign governments
were concerned, and the hopes which
had been expressed in some quarters
that the German emperor's visit to the
pope in 1883 might lead to Germany
advocating the temporal claim OF
the holy see were soon dissipated.
The pope himself, in letter to the
German bishops, declared that he re-
garded the presence of Emperor Will

Quirinal as 'deplorable recognition

Coronation Anniversary.
In February, 1900, the pope issued
an encyclical on Americanism which
caused much discussion, and in June,
1901. he issued a letter on labor,
which also aroused much interest.
On March 3, 1902, the late pope took
part in the public celebrations in
honor of the twenty-fourth anniver-
sary of his coronation by holding
''papal chapel in the basilica of st.
Peters, on which occasion he was
greeted by $4,000 persons. This was
the first time chapel had been
held in the basilica since 1870, such
ceremonies having heretofore taken
place in the Sistine chapel. Thirty
cardinals were among those present.
The late pontiff, on March 29, 1902,
published a long encyclical letter, the
tone of which suggested testamentary
recommendations and in which he de-
pIored the renewed attacks on the
church and the recent errors of hu
manity," instancing divorce, and pic
turing the present condition of so
ciety as having drifted into state of
anarchy.
The twenty-fourth anniversary of
Pope Leo's coronation was celebrated
at the vatican July 6, 1902, by the en-
tire papal court and thousands of
members of all the Catholic societies
assembled in Rome for the occasion.
The last notable encyclical of Leo
was dated October 30, 1902, and was
designed to promote study of the
Scriptures, and in February of this
year he wrote poem, dedicated to a
friend whom the pontiff desired to ad-

HAS FORMED HIGH REGARD
FOR THE PEOPLE OF HAWAII
Harry Robinson, Former Louisville Man, Re-
turns Home for Short Visit.--Believes in
the Future of the Islands.

The Louisville Courier-Journal says:
Harry Robinson, who has heen prac-
ticing law in Honolulu for the past two
years, has returned to this CITY. He
talks entertainingly of his experiences.
He is enthusiastic over Hawaii and will
return the middle Of October.
1.-The prospects for a young man are
fine" he said. THE future of the ISL
ands is in sugar, as they furnish almost
half of that commodity to the world,
and the young man who has a business
head has a wonderful opportunity.
Fortunes are won in a short time and
business is fiourishing. The natural
advantages are unequaled. Honolulu it
self is a city of about $4,000 inhabi-
tants and is set in a paradise. On all
sides is the Pacific ocean and the
climate varies between So and go de-
grees the year around. As you aD-

Waikiki resort, where the inhabitants
of Honolulu take their outing. The
city is on a beautiful harbor and slopes
gradually back. Three extinct vol
canoes overhang it. They are the
Punch Bowl, Tantalus and Diamond
! Head. At the time of the MARTINIQUE
disaster, reports had it that the people
of Honolulu were panic-stricken. How
ever, they never had a tremor. The
| volcanoes have been extinct for 400
years, and hardly a thought is given
them. An eruption would doubtless
bury the city, but the snake is consid-
| cred dead. The health of the people
| is remarkable. There is practically no
consumption. and the fever does not

the legend goes that there King Ka-
mehameha, the first of the royal line,
| made sure his title to the throne and

CAUGHT A SHIP
ON A SURF BOARD

Speaking about Hawaiians as sail
ors, did you ever hear the story Of the
native boy who overlook a ship on a
surf board?" questioned Captain L. s.
c. White at the Naval Station the 9th
er day The story was told TO NE
some time ago, and bears out the opin-
ion that 1 have always had that the
Hawaiian makes a good sailor.
1T was told 10 me about this way. a
native boy, who was also an expert
surf board rider, shipped on an Ameri-
can ship bound for Japan or China,
some years ago. The vessel was lum-
Der laden, also carrying a deck load.
A gale blew up and the native boy was
washed overheard. Some of the lun-
Der on the deck was washed away by
the same wave and the boy managed to
get hold of a board. Utilizing his
knowledge of surf board riding, which
he had gained in the islands, the sailor
caught the next big wave and rode on
the crest of it overtaking the vessel,
catching hold of a rope hanging from
the side and clambering aboard again,
almost before the ships officers knew
he had been lost overheard, and before
they had time to lower a boat for his
rescue. 1t might have been impossible
to lower a boat because of the gale, but
anyway the boy saved them the trou-
BILE of doing this.
Il don't think the story is at all i'm
probable, when you see what feats the
natives can perform with the surf
boards here. The vessel was going
right in the teeth of the gale, and it
was natural that the waves should be
swept right by her. So it would not
have been such a difficult matter for
an experienced surf board rider to over
take a vessel of that kind. don't be-
lieve such a thing to be impossible by
any means"

wife. He is born politician and has
gift of oratory rarely excelled. Great
things are expected of him when he
gets on the floor.
There are still patriots, and they are
not few, who long for the old order of
things. They loved their Queen and
their islands, and feel themselves
jostled out by all this American hustle
and energy. They are still sensitive
and hurt that Congress has not pro-
vided for their Queen, who is rather
hard pressed financially.
The women there are the finest
specimens of women have ever seen.
They are beautiful, we'll nodded. and
are refined. The men are all athletes
and are finely proportional. The pure
natives are fast disappearing by inter
marriage.
LAS a possession, the Hawaiian ISL
ands will pay beyond a doubt. They
are a natural base of supplies, a good
military port, a fine coaling station and
have excellent natural advantages.
They serve as a door into this country
from the Orient. The sugar there IS
produced in more abundance to the
acre than in any other country in the
world The inhabitants like not the ex-
clusion of Chinese, as the labor was
cheap and greatly reduced the cost of
production of the article. They want
all the Chinese immigrants they can
get. The politics there is as clean as
any I have ever seen. The real great
men seldom engage, but little trickery
is done, and the voting is usually
straight and open. The islands are oil
connected by a system of telegraphy,
and the result of an election is soon
widespread. When Prince Cupid was
elected it was known by 10 o'clock that
night all over the eight islands.
THE government is honest and well
organized and conducted. Sanford B.
Dole is Governor and is upright, con-
scientious and high-minded. He was
appointed by the late President Nc
| Kinley and is an American. Prior to
his appointment he was the president
of the provisional government.
I'm Honolulu every language almost
On the globe is spoken. There are often
from four to five interpreters in court
when a case is argued. English is the
standard language. The judicial de-
partment of the islands is excellent
The Supreme Court, composed of three
judges, is honest and has the respect
of every citizen. The Circuit Judges
are able men and solid LAWYERS. The
best known are Judges Robinson, De
Bolt and Gill. The bar, which has
about seventy members, is wide-awake
and has shrewd and able lawyers on its
rolls. He who goes out to practice law
with the expectation that he will find
an easy thing will be sadly mistaken.
Lorrin A. Andrews, who is an Aneri-
can, and has been Attorney General for
about ten months, has won his way to
the front by hard and consistent effort
and his ability is universally recognize
ed. He has been in the islands only
four years.
