ARBOR DAY IN ALL THE SCHOOLS
SCHOOL
PLANTS MANY TREES
GREAT INTEREST SHOWN THERE
BY THE LARGE NUMBER OF
PUPILS.

Arbor day is being celebrated today
throughout the city by all of the schools
but probably there is no school in the
city wherein the interest in Arbor Day
is shown so clearly as it is in the Kaiu-
lani school. There the total of the 61S
children who are enrolled are display
ing the greatest interest in all that
pertains to the day.
The Kaiulani school yard also tells
a tale of interest in the matter of tree
planting taken long before the day was
established by the Government. There
are trees there which were planted a
number of years ago by pupils and
which now afford the children of the
school much shade and at all times of
the year much pleasure from the beauty
which they shed. Today fifteen golden
shower trees will be added to the trees
already flourishing in the yard.
1t was no easy matter to plant trees
i'm the Kaiulani School yard for it con-
sists for the most part of coral and it
is exceedingly difficult to find the places
in which to plant the trees but preser-
verance and the importing of dirt did
the work until today one can hardly be-
lieve that the yard was at first a bar
rem coral reef.
A short time ago the fence which
marked the boundary between the
Girls Industrial School and the Kaiu-
lani school was moved back fifty feet
i'm the direction of the Industrial school
This added a strip of ground to the
Kaiulani yard which greatly improves
it, 1t is upon this ground and next
to the fence that the row of the fifteen
golden shower trees are being planted
today.
1t was the custom in the previous
years to hold the Arbor Day exercises
in the one large assembly hall Of the
school. But this year the large num-
Der of children makes the grouping of
them in a single hail extremely diff
ficult and so the authorities Of the
school decided that each room should
hold it's exercises apart from the rest
and that each room should have a tree
This was carried out this morning i'm a
most satisfactory manner.

NORMAL SCHOOL
HELD EXERCISES
ARBOR DAY FITTINGLY OBSERV-
ED AT THE NORMAL SCHOOL
THIS MORNING.

The Normal School held the regular
Arbor Day exercises today and large
number Of trees were planted. The
children took great interest in the work
and have promised to look out for the
trees in the future.
The Normal School pupils took
charge of the planting of the trees in
the hands of the little tots who go
there daily. They in this way not only
observe Arbor Day, but are trained to
teach the little ones how to plant trees
after they are teachers in charge of
some of the TerritOrys schools.

VIDA INDICATED
EVIDENCE THUS REFUSING HOLD SECURED
TORTURE THREATs-wHAT MAN DECLARED TO


Judge Lindsay this morning gave a
ruling admitting in evidence the con-
fession of Y Man Yong, as given to
Assistant Sheriff Vida on March Is. The
court simply announced that it over
ruled the objection to Vida's testimony
which means that the defense had fail
ed to convince the court that Vida Sc
cured the confession by means of tor
ture or threats. For two days Lind
say has been hearing testimony and
argument on the subject, the defense
attempting to show that the confession
should not go to the jury because it
had been obtained by cruelty and
threats. Judge Lindsay made no COM
ment on the testimony. The defense
noted an exception and Vida at once
resumed the witness stand.
Vida said that he had several inter-
views with the Korean after his arrest,
on March -. The defendant made the
confession on the evening of March
15 on being sent for and confronted
with a Korean named Soon, a witness
secured from Eva. This witness had
told Vida certain facts in connection
with the shooting of Chun Sun Duck,
with which Man Yong was charged.
Man Yong turned to me when l show
ed what l knew" said Vida in sub
stance, "and said Old man tell you
ALL more better now l tell truth, no
more lie"
Continuing, Vida said that Man Yong
had told him he meant to shoot Choy
Hook Shay, with whom he had had
numerous difficulties as a result of
jealousy over a woman. Vida took a

revolver from his desk, the one in evil
dence as being the weapon with which
the shooting was done, and showed it
to Man Yong, and the latter admitted
it was the one he had used.
Man Yong told of his intimacy with
the woman in the case, and said he had
had fights with Shay when he found
the latter was also intimate with her
He bought the revolver for $5 on River
street, and early in the evening lay in
wait for Shay, whom he thought he
saw in his quarters dressing, at the
Emmeluth home. Soon a Korean walk
ed by and Man followed and fired four
or five shots at him. He thought it
was Shay, but it was Chun sun Duck.
When he heard the man cry out on be-
ing shot, Man Yong placed the revolver
at his own heart and tried to fire, but
the pistol did not so off. He jumped
a fence and made his way to the rail-
road station, taking the 11:3O p. m. train
to Eva.
This was the story, in substance,
which Vida testified the Korean had
told him. On the day following he
repeated the story in the presence of
Sheriff Brown. Brown was also pre-
sent, said Vida, during a part of the
time when the first confession was
given. Others present in the room

and repeat to the jury the story which
he told by way of attempting to have
his confession shut out.

PARTIES POSTPONE ACTION.
In the first place tho trouble with
this work is that the political parties
on the other Islands postpone action
and fail to forward recommendations
until actually forced to do so. When
the recommendation do come they are
often faulty. A committee will sit in
Hilo or in Wailullu, and make a list
of names for each of the vacancies in
its representative district, but the COM
mittee fails to ask the persons whom
they recommend if they are willing to
act, although they have been specially
urged to do this from the Secretary's

SWIMMING CLUB
ELECTS OFFICERS

The Hawaiian Swimming Club met
adopted bylaws and elected officers
for the first year. Jess Woods was
elected president, Willie Roth vice
president, Harry Tomlins secretary,
VIII Dixon treasurer, Geo. Freeth cap
tain. Geo. p Cooke and A Robertsno
directors.
The place Of the principal! Office Of
the club will be the Hotel Baths, which
are now under construction. The OBJ
iects Of the club as set forth in the
bylaws are TO foster and encourage
all sorts OF amateur aquatic sports IN
Honolulu, to improve the standard of
swimming in Hawaii and acquire and
disseminate among its members new
knowledge of the art of swimming both
for physical and exhibition purposes.
They will also encourage and promote
exhibitions.
1t is the intention of the club to
hold annual swimming meets, at which
time the various championships of. the
islands will be decided and valuable
trophies will be awarded for each
event.
The choice of Geo. Freeth as captain
was a good one. F'reeth, although not
the fastest swimmer in the islands,
is one of the best all round men. He
gained quite a rep. in making the
SO-foot leap at the first water carnival
Freeth's strong point is diving, at
which game he is a crack.
The club has adopted a regulation
swimming suit, which will consist OF
a single piece suit, maroon in color,
with a white monogram of the letters
H. s. C. on the left breast. A breech
cloth of the same material will be
worn over the suit.
The new club will make their first
appearance on the opening night of
the baths.
