MASQUERADE AS
PART OF K0N0HI.
Chinese HawaiianS Break Away
From LiChi and Samshu
10 Two Step.

While the great dragon looked down
upon them in wonder from the big
banner on the wall. some forty youths
and maidens tricked out in all the
colors of the rainbow two-stepped and
waltzed as a part of the Konohi cele-
bration last night in the Knights OF
Pythias Hail. at the masquerade given
by the Chinese Athletic Association.
For the most part the masqueraders
were Of Chinese blood. although three
or four other nationalities were also
taking part on the floor and the repre-
sentatives of dozen watched the cos
TUNED dancers in the grand march
and joined in as soon as the floor
was thrown open to them.
Contrary to expectation. there were
few masqueraders in Chinese costume,
only two. in fact, and only one repre-
senting a Japanese. The others were
attired as flower girls. gypsies, column
bines. sweet shepherdesses. knights.
troubadors. and other characters in
which plenty of color could be appro-
priately used. the effect being very
pretty and unusual.
Mrs. Roberts. who was dressed in
the colors of the G. A. c., green and
white. with her costume trimmed with
Chinese lilies. was awarded the first
prize by the judges. although IL was
close matter deciding in her favor
over the costumes worn by Miss Annoy
Fook Tai. who wore the Hawaiian
colors, with red carnation leis, Both
costumes were excellent. For the gem
tlemen the first prize was awarded to
Sam Low. dressed as Uncle sam.
There were few costumes on the floor
which might with justice be termed
funny" the nearest approach being
that worn by Y. Along, although it
seemed to strike him as rather a sur
prise to be picked out as something
calculated to raise a laugh

Few tales of the sea are more in

The captain, first and second mates,

place in Aala Park last night, fizzled
out. About a hundred people gathered
and stood around in the rain to hear

Playing No FaUorites.

Editorial discussion in these columns
relative to the qualifications necessary
for participation in the forthcoming
city Democratic primaries has led
some people to believe that the Daily
News was espousing the cause of GER

The inference is unwarranted.
This is a friendly contest between
good Democrats and good citizens, and
what this newspaper has said was in

general public, regardless of the per
sonal political interests Of individual
candidates.

that it aroused the interest of the
North.
From all accounts the October panic
has reacted severely upon its origina
tors and it is still felt there even more
than here. The attempt to turn an
army of idle hands upon the South,
is ridiculous as we'll as malignant.
Farmers are needed to develop I'M
titled lands,-not factory hands; and
these farmers are expected to bring
with them the means to develop such
land, to erect dwelling houses and
barns, TO supply the necessary tools
and implements, to purchase the re
quired fertilizer, and finally to be able
to support themselves until the sol
yields it's reward.

so and nobody has the least right to

theirs to do with as they please.

in United States bonds, he might have

If man, after earning means ample

Privilege and Duty.

The right of suffrage is the privilege
which renders the American citizen
sovereign. At the polls he controls the
destiny of his country and thereby has
a sovereign's privilege-and duty. Roy
atty is not all pleasure. Where the &C.
cupant of a throne INDUCES in pleasure
to the neglect of his duty, he is dig
ging the grave of his dynasty. In the
same way, where the American SOW.
ereign or voter neglects from any
cause whatever, to do his duty at the
polls, he is making coffin nails for the
commonwealth.
The greater the privilege, the higher
are it's duties. This is an axiom it
needs no demonstration. Suffrage, the
right to control the country's destiny,
requires a vast number of Christian
duties, and the first of these is self-ab-
rogation.
The best citizen is he who, while
working for his own interests, pro
notes those of his neighbors. The
man who invests large capital does
so primarily because he expects fail
returns; but by his investment he can
not fail to benefit others. Take, fol
instance the owner of a lot who de
cides to build modern office building
He expects, and has the right to ex

what effect has the construction o
this building upon the neighborini
property? 1t doubles and sometime
trebles its value. If the owners o
such adjacent property do not appre
ciate the service rendered by the il
vestor, they must be callous indeed.
Public spirit is often and justly az
cepted as synonym for patriotism

spirited men makes a vast differenc

Our Fleet at Honolulu.

There are two spots on earth |
where the climate is perfect" said a
traveller who had visited every place
within reach of steamer or railroad.
I'm the Atlantic you will find it in the
Canary Islands, in the Pacific on the
Hawaiian Islands" He is right.
The Hawaiian Islands, sometimes
still called Sandwich Islands on maps
made in Europe, because they were
discovered by Capt Cook whose voy-
age of discovery was under the patron
age of the Earl of Sandwich, are just
on the edge of the tropics, 2,16O miles
southwest of San Francisco. The larg-
est of the group is Hawaii, which has
one of the largest volcanoes known.
Honolulu, the capital is on the small
island Oahu, only 81 miles across,
where it lies Graded in tropical and
semi-tropical foliage. The thermom-
eter ranges between "A degrees and 81
degrees all the year round, but the
heat is not oppressive since it is tenn
pered by the land and sea breeze.
A broad coral reef extends round
the island, leaving one opening lead
ing into the harbor of Honolulu, the
other giving an outlet to Pearl River.
This reef with its crooked formation
renders the island of Oahu easy Of
defense. Diamond Head, bolt pro-
montory about ten miles from the
city, offers a site for an impregnable
fort
The natives of the islands; Kan
akas (men) as they call themselves,
are an unusually handsome and good
natured race, which, however, could
not withstand contact with our own.
Half century ago, an epidemic OF
smallpox decimated the Kanakas, the
population of whole villages dying
from the scourge. Since that time
they have dwindled away. their places
being taken first by Chinese and af
forwards by Japanese, although quite
a number of Portuguese from the Can
airy Islands were brought over ant

resented in this beautiful spot, some
times called the Pearl of the Ocean.
