THE PROCESSION.
The crowd was so dense on the wharf
that it was with difficulty that the
parade was formed and marched
through the surging masses Finally
the Hawaiian band struck up a march
and the procession started, passing up
to King street, thence to Bishop street,
up Bishop to the entrance to the Young
Hotel A platoon of mounted police,
headed by Senior Captain Parker,
headed the line. Then came a platoon
then Col. Zeigler and staff, followed by
the Hawaiian Government band with
Drum Major VIM. Ellis at the head
Following were the U. S. Artillery
troops under Captains Nichols and
Hamilton and after them the Hawai-
ian National Guard.
then the committees carriages and
Consul Saito and Major Wall.
The rear was taken up with the Japa-
nese veterans and the Buddhist cadets.
Capt. Johnson and Lieut.. Cummins
were mounted and rode alongside the
Princes carriage.
CROWDED THOROUGHFARES.
The street along the line of march
was massed with humanity. Every
japanese store was conspicuous in the
background by it's crossed poles and
1uttering flags. The attraction was
more fir the Prince, and as the crowd
caught sight of the familiar figure in
uniform, so like his pictures, every
body started forward to be at the
Young Hotel when he alighted. The
police were inadequate to handle the
crowd properly. The jam before the
Young building vas unprecedented.
A NAVAL OFFERING.
The entire curb was lined with JAP
anese school children, each one carry
ing flag. They gazed with stolid
faces upon the countenance of the ex-
allied parsonage before them, but said
not a word. The Prince was greeted,
as he aiighted at the hotel by DR.. Ko-
bayashi, DR.. l. Katsuki, K. Kobaya.shi,
Mr.. Nagasawa and Mr.. Sugita.
At this iuncture an old Hawaiian wom-
an pressed forward and reaching Prince
Fushinis side thrust a coin toward
him. The astonished Prince looked for
an instant and then took the coin,
hardly knowing the woman's intention,
but as she smiled and showed homage,
the Prince smiled and thrust the coin
into his pocket. 1t was a Hawaiian
fifty cent piece given to an ALI as
hookupu.
CHILDREN SANG TO HIM.
Shortly after the arrival OF the Prince
AT the Young Hotel the school children
were formed in line for marching. The
band struck UP the National Anthem,
and the children sang the words. Short
Iy the Prince, bareheaded, appeared
at the window and came outside. Dur
ing the singing he remained an inn
passive listener. but at the conclusion
when the veterans shouted "Banzai!
Banzai" he nodded gravely and retired
PRINCE RECEIVES,
The Prince was conducted to the re-
ception parlor where he received mem-
bers of all the committees and a num-
Der of ladies. 1t was then decided that
the Prince would receive Governor Car
ter. The Governor appeared about fif-
teen minutes later and paid his COM
pliments.
The meeting between the two was
cordial, the Governor expressing his
hope that on landing on soil so we'll
known to Japanese he would feel at
home. The Prince responded by saying
that the welcome accorded him was
a genuine surprise to him. and he was
thankful for the attentions shown him
by the Territory.
On tie departure of the Governor the
Prince retired to his suite for much
needed rest.
