wAILUKU. oct. s-The Church OF
Our Blessed Lady Of Rosary at Kuau,
Paia, was the scene of very beautiful
and impressive ceremonies on last
Sunday. that occasion being the an
niversary of the Feast of the Rosary.
Special trains were run from all
points on the X X. r. Co.'S line. In
Guiding Kihei, to Paia, and an Inn
mense congregation, principally of
Portuguese, assembled to attend the
services and take part in the process
sion in honor of Our Lady of the Ro-
sary. The services began at $3.50 a. m,
with Holy Mass by Rev. Father
Charles, followed by a special sermon
in Portuguese addressed to the children
who were about to celebrate their first
Holy Communion. Ninety-five children
of whom forty were boys and fifty-five
were girls were participants. At the
conclusion of the services, the children
were ushered to two long tables spread
in the church yard with bountiful
feast of delicious food supplemented
by ten gallons of milk through the
thoughtfulness and generosity of Hon.
II. P. Baldwin, music for the inter-
mission being furnished by the Wal
luku Brass Band which had kindly
volunteered it's services for the day.
At Ii o'clock High mass was cele-
brated by Father Justin, who deliv-
cred an eloquent sermon in Portuguese,
the topic being Our Blessed Lady of
the Rosary, the sermon contrasting her
divine attributes and her helpful per-
sonal attributes.
The large congregation was treated
to a substantial repast after the con-
clusion Of the services at 1890. Two
barrels of iced lemonade We're served
with the food. At p. m. the process
sion moved from the church to the sea
beach. 1t was 200 yards in length. On
reaching the beach the Miserere was
sung and prayers offered for those
who have lost their lives at sea, and
devotions were renewed to Our Lady
of the Rosary.
The procession then returned to the
church and the congregation was dis
missed from day of thoroughly en-
joyable devotion.
Kuau church was founded eighteen
years ago, and has been in charge of
Father Charles a devout and emerge
tic priest since last November. 1t
was formerly in charge of Father
James, who was at much expense in
decorating and furnishing the church
and altar, over $4,000 having been spent
} for the latter purpose. 1t is to be ex-
iceedingly regretted that much of the
costly, imported wood used for the
altar has been seriously ravaged by
island insects, from whose depreda-
lions it seems impossible to protect
them
SEVERE ACCIDENT.
A native named Iokua fell from a
plantation wagon on Tuesday while
driving from Wailuku to Waihee. The
wheels ran over his left wrist and an
kle, decorating the flesh and crushing
the bones of his arm and leg. He was
sent to the hospital.
MALES CHANGE BASE.
A letter has been received by the
Star baseball team from the Males
of Honolulu, amending the conditions
under which they will play the Stars.
Instead of expenses to play one game
the Males now offer $3.50 for two
games. The Maui News says:
such a liberal O. offer as this to
the team which holds the best record
of all the mines of the islands should
be passed up by the Stars without fur
Their consideration. If the Males mean
business let them stick to their ORR
ginal offer at least"
