in Honolulu of Right Reverend Henry
Bond Restarick, Episcopal Bishop of
Honolulu, was fittingly celebrated yes

house and upon the ample, shaded
lawns of st. Clements church. A

dresses in the parish house, was follow
ed by gathering of the members of
the various Episcopal churches upon
the lawn at which time dainty refresh
ments were served with music by the
Territorial band to enliven the social
side of the function.
The reception to the Bishop was CIV
en- under the auspices Of the Woman's

ick, Rev. John osborne, Rev. Alex.

combined choirs of st. Andrews Cathe-
dral, st. Clements church and st. Pc
ters chapel Prayer by Rev. Alex.
Macintosh was followed by an address
of welcome by Rev. John osborne.
Bishop Restarick responded with an
excellent address in which he referred
| to the pleasant relations of all church
members toward himself since he be-
| came Bishop, the hearty cooperation
which had effectually tended to ad-
vance the interests of the diocese, and
above all the bright prospect which the
future held forth. He spoke at length
on missionary work, the keystone of
the church. and hoped that it would
develop largely in his diocese.
Deaconess Drant followed with
pleasant talk on the work conducted
| by her at the st. Elizabeth homes in
Honolulu where Hawaiian and Chinese
girls are received and given instruc-
tion to better their condition. The
| work had prospered, the classes were
we'll attended and additions were rapid
| ly enlarging the scope of the worthy
work.
| The special Offering taken up at the
close of the meeting which is to swell
the united Offering of the national
branch of the Woman's Auxiliary to be
used in 1904 for the training of woman
| workers and their support in the mis-
sion field, amounted to $S12.11. The col
lection was an enjoyable surprise.
At the conclusion of the services the
Territorial band, stationed in a shady
| nook on the lawn, played martial
air, and the audience quickly turned
their function into a garden party.
Bishop and Mrs. Restarick rec eived the
congratulations of the congregations
on the lawn close to the parish house
The Bishop commented eagerly on the
unity and general esprit du corps ex-
isting among the congregations.

Walter G. Smith, Mrs. C. l.. Rhodes,
Mrs Montague Cooke and Mrs. Kopke.

DOORS
| He failed to mention whether the
| charge that he was Home Ruler had
| any truth in it or not and no one asked
| him. He was applauded enthusiastical-
| y by his former subjects.
KUHIO'S RECEPTION.
Delegate Kuhio was received with ap-
plause. He thanked all those present
for honoring him by election as dele
gate, and said that it was due to the
votes of Democrats and Home Rulers
| as well as Republicans. Further he in
tended to represent the whole people
| in Washington, not any one party. He
| hoped that those who did not vote for
| him would now see their mistake. AS
| for himself he had been a Home Ruler,
and gone over to the Republican par
ty where he intended to stay until he
died. He advised his hearers also to
join the Republican party. He added
that he was not talker but he could
| work for the people and intended to do
so. AS for the county act he knew
there We're some things in it which the
people did not like, but these could be
remedied.
Everyone knew that the laws now
on the statute books were not as they
had been passed originally. So with
the county act If anything is wrong it
can be amended by legislatures still 10
be elected
Delegate Kuhio closed with a request
that If the people in the audience mad
anything they wished him to present to
Congress, to bring it to him, and he
would gladly do as they wished.
KUMALAE'S REGRETS.
Representative Jonah Kumalae was
the next speaker He said that the
native members of the Legislature had
been accused of not being loyal to the
Republican party, but he said he did
not mind abuse and insults. This was
done for political purposes, and no at
tention should be paid to what the
newspapers said. The acts of the legis-
lature should speak for themselves, and
Kumalae predicted that they would be
| appreciated in the future. Perhaps they
had not done just exactly as they
should have done, as some measures
| We're sent to the Senate by the House
which had not been passed. For in
stance the law allowing all to practice
on lepers without a license had not
been passed, for which he was very
sorry. as now the natives must still
be compelled 10 so to this 'hole OF ever
| lasting DEATH" He said he wanted
those present to vote for himself and
Aylett. and told them not to vote for
those with fiowery language. but for
the ''men that will do the right ching
