growth of shade and Iruit trees. plants
and vines, many covered over with rich
flowers
When 1 came to the city I strove to
find out how many different trees,
plants and vines were in the city. but
no one was able to furnish me the
intelligence. I then went to Mr.. J.
E. Higgins of the United States Ex-
pertinent Station. He called off from
his report to the ST. Louis Fair over
forty-one kinds of fruit-bearing trees
and bushes; a corresponding number
of foodstuffs for animals; a large
number of different vegeta bles and of
Towering trees. plants. bushes and
vines almost without limit. 1t would
be impossible for me to give any ade-
quate statement of what I received
from him. hence 1 visited the grounds

etc. There were present many of the
young people of the church, and older
persons having direction of it. They
told me that they did this every time
| a German man-of-war came to the
city. I was exceedingly pleased with
this service.
Farming and fishing constitute the
largest industries in the islands. Ba-
nanaS, pineapples cocoanuts, rice and
sugar-cane are raised here in abund-
ance. The sugar industry is the Iarg-
est. Reference to one plantation I
visited will suffice to emphasize this
assertion.
EVA Plantation is one of the most
productive plantations in the world,
and has one of the largest plants in
existence for the manufacture of SUI
gar This plantation consists of seven
thousand acres of cane. 1t is a corpor-
alton of $50, 900 shares; has five locomo-
tives; 600 cane cars bring the cane to
the mill, where it is first weighed and
unloaded by machinery; 1900 tons every
day from which over 200 tons of sugar
are made. They have 1900 people on
their payroll, 4 sets of steam plows,
each set blowing about eight acres per
day. They have fifty artesian wells,

| l left San Francisco on the Mongolia
one of the two largest vessels ever

States. 1t had aboard a very large
cargo and many passengers. The pas

China, Korea and other places.

We were over-crowded in our state
rooms.
On the Sabbath and on week days we
had religious services l was chosen to
make the addresses for all the services,
notwithstanding the missionaries on
board. One evening we had a presenta-
ton of the Hawaiian Islands. This was
presided over by Governor George K.
Carter. and addressed by a Mr.. Elmer
son on the early history of the Islands,
and by Mrs. DIR. Whitney on the relig-
ious and philanthropic work. 1t was q
pleasant interview, after which Cover
nor Carter made some very interesting
concerning the Islands, some
of which | Will incorporate IN this let

had the presentation of the Boxer move
ment in China from the beginning to

most interesting. and stated the suf-
ferings which it had caused and the
benefits that came out of this movement
for the missionary work.
We arrived at Honolulu on the first
day of September. and were met by
crowds on the dock looking for their
friends. Honolulu is most beautiful

sides the public parks.
Few places have more splendid
scenery than that which surrounds Ho-
nolulu. The mountains stand out in
high and strong background; roman
tic and rugged valleys literally filled
with trees and vegetation in profusion;
the old ocean stretching out in every
way to the south and west of the
city; beautiful parks, restful resorts
and surf bathing, the best that L ever
saw, within thirty minutes ride from
the center Of the city; all of which
adds to the attraction of the place.
Churches. missions. schools. hospitals
and societies of all kinds are used for
the betterment of the inhabitants
splendid aquarium of most beautiful
and wonderfully shaped fish. and the
best and largest museum of Polynesian
collections in the world, are also among
the attractions.
The regular denominations are not
quite as numerous here as in the
States. The Presbyterians, Baptists
and Congregationalists are largely
united in one church known as the
Central Union Church. Besides this
there is the Episcopal Roman Catho-
lie, Methodist Episcopal, Christian
Church and Lutheran. The following
is a statement in regard to the Luther
an Church in this city:
