SCHOLARSHIP
FOR HAWAII

Superintendent of Public instruction
Babbitt is writing East for informa-
ton regarding the Rhodes scholar
ships, with a view to ascertaining
whether Hawaii has a right to any of
them The scholarships were founded
in 1902 by Cecil Rhodes, the South At
rican capitalists, who left fund Of
ten million dollars to establish about
100 oxford scholarships for the United
States, to be apportioned among the
states and territories, besides about
sixty for England and the British col
onies.
The scholarships have a yearly value
Of $1,5OO and were intended by their
founder to have the effect of drawing
America and England closer together,
by the education of a number of the
most promising young Americans at
Englands famous university. The first
selections were made in 1904 in each
state and territory to which scholar
ships were assigned, but Hawaii has
not had any part in the matter as yet.
The allotment was one for each state
and territory excepting Hawaii I'm
der the rules made each candidate
must have completed his sophomore
year at some university or college and
must be an unmarried citizen between
the ages of 10 and %. 1t is thought
possible that Hawaii may be shut out
on account of not having university or
college of her own, at which her APP

1t was when the expert and party had
come to the cut which had been made
in order to show Mr.. Kellogg cross
section of the pipe that Patterson was
asked some pertinent questions. c. H.
Smith the engineer i'm charge of the
work for the Department of Public
Works started the ball rolling by ask
ing Mr.. Patterson the following ques-
ton.

of this work of laying this pipe were

Then will you say first what the
trouble is with that concrete?"
1T does not contain enough fine mat

Very well, then why did you not stop

"They let me go ahead and nothing
was said. You (Mr. SMITH We're the
engineer in charge and you were up
here nearly every day. Why didn't you
stop it?"
Il would have if you had reported the
state of affairs to me as you should
have done as an inspector in my en-
ploy."
Il didn't hire out as an inspector"
Here Expert Kellogg broke in with
the question.
| 1.-The specifications provide that
there shall be no water in the trench
when the concrete was laid and why
| did you let the work go on?"
"They did not tell me to stop the
work"

Mr.. Patterson paused.

the duties of an inspector and then al

| ed Patterson if he had ever had any
written Instructions to which Patter-
son replied as follows.
II did not receive any orders. l had
read the specifications and that was
all. The engineers were always here.
Why didn't they stop it. | had no au-
thority to do so. The Department is
now trying to ruin my character and I
don't care if they do, as long as my
conscience tells me that l saved the

! Mr. Kellogg finished examining the
cut and then ordered another one to
be made. He did not express an OPT
Mon as to the quality of the concrete.
| KELLOGG AS A WORKER.
! A visitor to the site of the dam
would have a hard time choosing Kel-
logg from the bunch of dirty working
men. Every day that he spends at
the dam is crowded full of work. He
| dons a pair of dirty overalls and a
checkered blouse and then he comes
down ard fairly wades in. He splashes

on his lands and knees into all sorts of
impossible places He is lowered into
pits and after a season of prodding
about with a stick or bar Of iron he
is hauled out again only to be shown
some other place. The man who keeps
pace with Expert Kellogg is thoroughly
! tired when the time comes to go home.
