MENU OF THE
WAILUKU LUAU

The luau committee have preserved
all the data and the finance committee
all the vouchers concerning the luau, a
study of which will be of much inter-
est to those who wish to give luaus
in the future. The total expenses nf
the luau and reception were a few
dollars short of $500, of which about
$3.50 were luau expenses. Arrangements
We're made to feed 500 people. Two
bullocks, six grown pigs. four dozen
chickens, six barrels of poi, five bar
rels of beer, ten cases of soda water,
seven bags of potatoes, two bags of
luau, besides opae, opihi, loli, kukui,
ETC., in corresponding quantities con-
stituted the menu. Two large linus
were built, which consumed one and
a half cords of wood. $50 laulaus and
one whole pig We're cooked in the linus
The labor bill alone for preparing the
luau was 500, which included the dec
Grafton of the schoolhouse. This might
seem a large sum to those inexperi-
enced, but as a matter of fact twenty
men were kept busy for two days, be-
sides the extra days and night work.
and it is a safe proposition that every
man jack of them richly earned his
dollar a day.-Maui News.

WHERE MAUI'S KINGS
LIE HIDDEN AWAY

Perhaps Kapela, the highest peak of
the Lihau ridge, overlooking Olowalu,
is the most interesting one in lao val
ley, for somewhere among its numer-
Gus dark. hidden recesses. no living
soul knows where, is the cave contain
ing the bones OF the kings and chiefs
of Maui. In this cave were supposed
to have been hidden the bones of Ka-
hekili. king of Maui. and Kalanikupule,
his son, and other royal personages.
Other authorities claim, however, that
after the death of Kahelxili on Oahu in
1875 his bones We're sent to Hawaii.
Sometime during 1884 the late King
David Laamea Kalakaua, with native
kamaainas from Wailuku, spent a day
in lao valley trying to locate the cave
with the royal treasures, but he gave
up the attempt in despair. Either the
natives did not know the exact loca-
ton of the cave. or they would not show
the place on account OF the prevailing
superstition that he who would give
away the bones of the kings would
surely die, but at any rate, none of
the ten men knew where the place
was. w. B. Keanu was one of the
party, and according to his statement
some of them climbed a lofty lehua
tree and from that elevated position
bones, but they could not make out
whether they were human bones or not
Some of them had the temerity to be-
lieve they belonged to animals, but
the question would be asked how the
animals ever got there, for no human
being of later days, and not even goats,
could get there. But this can only be
answered by the fact that the natives
of the last century were, by far, great
er and superior athletes than their
brothers of today, and what would seem
impossible nowadays was within the
range of possibility then. For it is
recorded in history how Kamehameha
the Great used to lift men in the air
ana break them IN TWO, and now ne
performed other feats equally superhu-
man, that would make his modern
brethren hide their faces for very
shame. That was the age of athletic
feats. They would have excelled in
base ball, too, had that game been
known at the time.
There is no doubt that this cave, |
known as Kapela-kapu-e-na-lii, con-
tains treasure sof untold value, but to
reach it is the question. Not only the
bones of high chiefs and chiefesses
were hidden here, for fear of being /
made into fish hooks, but feather |
cloaks or royal ahuulas belonging to
King Kahekil and other Maui rulers
may be there still. Lehua trees abound |
lere. The indigenous birds have almost

BEAUTIFUL TRIBUTE TO THE
TRAVELING MAN

A beautiful tribute was recently
paid to the commercial traveller by
John S. Harwood, who knows the
genus - their achievements, merits
and shortcomings.
The travelling men are really q
great body of national educators. To
the remotest hamlet they carry the
news Of everything new under the
sun. All that science, art, literature
and invention have produced they
quickly place before their customers.
The discomforts Of travel and the
weary anxleties of their nomadic life
make them all look forward to q
golden time of comfort and happi-
ness, when they will no longer wander
from their own firesides. l have
seen him at the little lonely country
depot, waiting for the belated snow
bound midnight train. The weary
winter wind was moaning through
the sobbing wires as he paced rest
lessly about the dimly lighted depot.
Occasionally he would take out his
watch, not to see the time of night,
but to look at the one stair woman
under the sun"-she and none other,
his wife. AS he put up the watch
he murmured, "God bless her." The
simple prayer came from the very
depths Of his loving heart, and 1t
went straight to Heaven. Love of
home and family is, / believe, strong
er with commercial travellers than
any other class Of men, the old apho-
rism, "absence makes the heart grow
fonder," finding its fullest exemplifi-
cation in the ranks of this great army
of home loving men. When things
are "coming his way" he is liberal
and generous to a fault-nothing is
too good for him or his. When it is
otherwise he accepts the situation
regretfully but philosophically, and
proceeds to sacrifice himself for those
he loves. / have known him to carry
his heavy grip from the trains to the
hotel and make the old overcoat do
another winter that the dear boy at
home might have bicycle. 1 have
known him to quit smoking, saying
1T didn't agree with aim, that he
might send the money to mother,
who was having hard time in the
old home in a distant State.
The bright oasis in their lives is
when the six weeks trip is over ard
for week or ten days they enjoy the
company and surroundings of home
and the sweet, noble wife and the
Virginia citizen. (Irvington, Va.) 1891-1921, 1903-06-26
THE COWARD.

He had the courage to win DER men
Where fortunes were lost and made
He was brave enough to triumph when
He fought in the halls of trade.
He dared TO assail and overthrow
The rivals who blocked his way,
But he feared to bother bully who
Abused child where he hurried through
The vice haunted street one day.
lie had the courage to make bis will
The law unto thousands more;
He could wreck the hopes of others and
still
Smile forth from his carriage door;
Through many daring plan he laid
The hopes of others were slain.
But he skulked around a corner, afraid
To rush on the low-browed brute who
made
A little child writhe In pain.
He had the courage to face the giumb-
ling crowd,
He dared to come and to go
Where ruined ones cursed his name
aloud
And every man was his foe:
He did not fear to be hated where
His marvellous gains were made,
But he saw the brute's hand clutch the
fair
White throat of child, and skulked
from there
Like hunted rabbit, afraid.
