EMPRESS OLE BRITAIN

The new Canadian Pacific Railway
Company's steamer Empress of Britain
left the Clyde on Friday afternoon for
cruise round Ireland before being
placed on the Liverpool and Canadian
service of the company. The liner is
the finest and fastest steamship in the
Canadian trade, and embodies all the
best-Bpown improvements in shipbuild-
ing. In the matter of size, the En-
press of Britain represents something
beyond the highest point hitherto
touched in connection with the ocean
passage to the Dominion. As she lay
at anchor off Greenock on Friday, the
vessel presented externally an impress.

Eddie Quinn, not the plumber

thirteen years, had the misfortune to
lose his bicycle in the hurbor yester.
day afternoon, while he personally
took "A bath. The boy rode his wheel
onto the Fort street wharf and slow.
ing up as he neared the stringer at
the edge, veered around to come paral.
lei with it. At the same time he took
his right foot off the pedal intending
to place the foot on the stringer and
hold himself. He misjudged the dis.
lance. His foot missed the stringer
and losing balance, wheel and boy
plunged over the wharf into the har
Dor. The wheel went to the bottom
and the boy floated to the surface and
was pulled out by loungers. The boy
said he had been in possession of the
wheel about five days and had paid
Sl3 for it. He offered 50 for its re-
covery. Some Japanese coal-fishers
wanted more and refused to use their
{ applers to get the machine. Finally,
the boy went mournfully away.

meet the responsibility. Moral reformi
must come from below. The few o
great wealth could not always giv'
to a community that moral stimulus
which II needed TO guide It to the high
| est plane. Their material responsible
tiles were too great. and their materia
interests might interfere too much. The
young men OF these mixed races. living
for the highest ideals. could do this
work-and some of the men who had
come from these schools were now do
ing It,
DIR. Scudder spoke also upon the cor
ruption of politics. and upon. the duty
OF the young Hawaiians TO so live and
so conduct themselves that the govern
ment would be honestly administered.
Superintendent of Schools Rabbit,
introduced next. spoke in high terms of
the spirit of Kamehameha, which en-
abled the pupils of the schools to stand
together and which would make them
better men and women in the time to
come.
Mr.. j. O.. Carter, speaking for the
trustees Of the school and apologizing

kept from being present. spoke of the
high character and noble purpose Of

The speaker touched upon the char
acter and purposes of Charles r. Bishop
also. VINO had been a true friend OF
the Hawailans, and paid a high tribute
to the courageous and conscientious
work Of the teachers of Kamehameha.
Rev. DIR. Kincaid spoke upon true
Americanism, and upon how 1t was to
be attained only by those who had the
true spirit of the American. 1T does
not matter what the race of man. ne
said, whether he be Chinese or Hawai-

There was a crowd that filed the
Bishop Memorial Chapel out last night
TO witness the fifteenth commencement
exercises of the Kamehameha School
for Boys, and the young graduates
were enthusiastically greeted by their
friends and relations as they arose and
acquitted themselves well Of the part
each was called to play in the greatest
occasion that their young lives have
known SO far.
The chapel was beautifully decorated,
end the scene as the boys came out
and took the seats reserved for them
or the platform, followed by the corps
of teachers in the school, was most i'm
pressive. The exercises began with an
organ prelude, played by Waldo d. Bar
low, followed by an invocation by Rev.
John Lloyd Hopwood. The Boys Glee
Club responded with the Sanctus, after
which Mr.. Hopwood read the 1O3rd
Psalm.
Then young Albert Bush delivered
q brief salutatory in behalf of the class
Of 1906 following with a thoughtful ad-
dress on local option, which showed
that the young man had been started
with what promises to be the dominant
sentiment of this community on the
liquor question. The address was well
delivered, in voice that could be
plainly heard by the entire audience.
Ira Vowel spoke on What Science
has Done for Agriculture" and Adel-
bert Maby on the very live topic of
Immigration" Then there was music
by the glee club. and Lawrence Sakuma
grew prophetic in speaking on The
Future of Kamehameha." The Duty
of the Voter was Earl Williams topic,
and the valedictorian of the class, the
boy who had graduated at its head,
David Alama, spoke with great appre-
citation upon the advantages of a
Good Education"
There was more music by the glee
club. after which President Perley l..
Horne delivered the diplomas to the
young men the school sang Hawaii

dicton.
