in the Hilo, Puma and Kau districts.
The greatest amounts of rainfall, al
most without exception, occurred on
the windward side of the several is
lands.
At stations having record of ten
or more years the rainfall was above
the average for the week at Hawaii
stations, so inch to 100 inches in the
Kohala district, IA inch to 2.92 inches
in the central and southern portions of
the E1llOt anu 900 W goo iAASAOS IL IiC
Puma and Kau districts; and below
the average, 81 to so inch in the Ko-
ma and Hamakua and the extreme
northern portion of the Hilo districts.
On Oahu the departures from the
average were small, and varied from
a deficiency of ID inch to an excess
of IS inch. On Kauai the excuses
ranged from 2.O7 to s.59 inches in the
Koolau and eastern portion of the Ko-
ma districts, and .O5 inch in the west

of Molokai. in the Eva, Waianae and
Koolauloa districts of Oahu, in the
Hama, Kula and southern portion of
the Koolau districts of Maui. and in
the Kau district of Hawaii report
more rainfall than during last week,
but except in the indicated sections of
Maui the amounts were not material.
The stations in the remaining portions
of the section report "a less amount of
rainfall than during last week, and
as a rule the differences were large
especially in the Hamakua, Hilo and
Puma districts OF Hawaii, where they
ranged from 1862 to 24.sS inches.

Tomorrow at s a. m. a solemn high
mass will be celebrated at the beauti-
full little chapel of st. Augustine, Wa
ikiki. For weeks painters have been
busy renovating the whole interior
and a new coat of varnish makes it
look as new as ever. The mass in
the absence of the Bishop will be cele-
brated by the Reverend Provincial of
the Mission, Very Reverend Father
Joseph Juliotte. Father Ulrich has
offered his services and the cathedral
choir will sing under his direction the
beautiful mass of Concone. During
the mass Master Kaiser, a promising
Hawaiian youth, will render ''Beetho-
ven's Largo on the cello with organ
The occasion of this celebration is
the feast of st. Augustine, which falls
on the 2sth of August, and the mass
has been said in the little chapel for
as far back as so years. Bishop Mai
greet in his diary mentioned the fact
in 1s47 and since that time it has been
faithfully kept by his successors, the
pastors of the chapel. In the first
years of the existence of this church
the place was situated on the town
side of the present location. In 1854
an exchange of land was effected be-
tween the Catholic Mission and the
owners and the church was removed
to the present spot. 1t is said that
the old chapel was built with the lum-

that time on the Waikiki beach.
In 1898 a new structure was erected
on account Of the increase in the con-
gregation, principally brought about
by the Catholic soldiers stationed at
Camp Mckinley. Three years later
this temporary church was replaced
by the new one which is a model
chapel of these tropical shores.
The only relic left of the old chapel
is the little bell now used in the new
steeple for worship and which came
with six others of the same clear tone.
For over fifty years this bell has been
heard every day of the year on the
Waikiki beach, morning, noon and
evening, to ring the "Angelus" so
characteristic of the Catholic faith.
The actual church has been erected
by the subscription of benefactors at
a cost of nearly s9OO0. The little organ
Is one of the finest in these islands
and is a credit to Mr.. Bergstrom of
San Francisco. Besides the beautiful
and tasteful altar there are two
statues, of st. Anthony and st. Aug
Justine. with a picture of the Tmma-
culate Conception, a relic of an old
convent of Boston and once the prop
erty of the late John Ena. At the
completion of the new church and in
consideration of his friendship for the
pastor it was given to the chapel, a
perpetual memory of the donor.
