crowned, wide-brimmed shapes are
delightfully."- airy and fresh, in white
or burnt straw, trimmed In the SIM
plest manner with wreaths Of large
roses, draperies Of pink or white
mousseline de sole, or .ulle In grad.
uated shades forming sort Of pale
rainbow. The summer "cloches" are
trimmed with pleated linen or wide
frills of Ialenciennes lace, with
punches of flowers tucked in among
the ruches.
For summer evening gowns, lace,
silk filet and beaded and embroidered
net are the most charming. Crystal
and glass beadwork have now quite
taken the place of the paillettes SO
long used, and by artificial light are
exceedingly effective, especially in the
golden pinks or silvery greys, greens
and blues, and when used in combi-
nation with princess or point APP
pl1que lace. Pearl has returned to
favor, pearl bead embroidery lighted
up with tiny Rhinestones making
delightful ornamentation either for
black or white. Even in the sheer
materials the sheath skirt shows its
influence, and the floating cloudlike
effects formerly characteristic Of the
dancing-frock are seen no more.
Evening gowns are now cut very
long, trailing not only in the back
out on the sides, and as the under
upon is usually cut short and as
the outer skirt is very sheer and very
scant, this train clings end twists
snakily around the feet. Needless
to say, it requires long hours of prac-
tice to enable one to manage this
skirt with anything approaching
grace.
The Liberty sash is still seen on
many evening gowns, and the newest
ones are caught above the waist-line
in the back with q large Rhinestone
buckle. The Pierrot ruche made of
net and trimmed with a garland Of
small roses forms a charming Access
sorry for evening wear, and touch
that gives chic to a decollette cos
tune is a dog-collar of velvet en-
broidered to match the trimming Of
the gown.
The newest stocks are Of net or
DaI iHne ;ensely high, with a frill
of 4 saE~ me around the top, boned
high on the sides, but not cut in the
pronounced points seen in the early
spring. The collar itself is tucked
and the frill is fully pleated, stand
ing directly out from the neck A
rather original form Of neckwear has
just appeared from Paris in the dou-
BILE pleated tulle collar, box-pleated
about the neck and reaching up
quite to the ears, and with another
row or flounce turning down and ex-
tending almost to the top of the
sleeve, like little cape. The throat
is encircled by band of gold rib
bon, fastening in front in small
bow. Flat pleatings Of embroider-
ed net, batiste, nainsook or organdie
are much in vogue for summer wear
anywhere from two to six inches
wide. They are put on perfectly
round and fasten in the back, or open 7

sees the hand of Providence working
for the good of Korea and that upon
his arrival in Washington he would
tell President Roosevelt that he is
convinced that Marquis Ito and Baron
Hayashi are in earnest in their de-
sires to improve conditions and are
working patiently and earnestly for
the good of Korea.
Local Koreans are greatly incensed
and excited over these remarks and
it is feared by mission workers
among the Koreans that Bishop Har-
ris may be assassinated upon his ar
rival at San Francisco on the steamer

CUTTING OUT
SOME TEACHERS
More Pupils and Fewer School
ma'a for the Next
School Period.

Superintendent of Public Instruction
Babbitt expects to be able to make the
final announcements of assignments of
teachers and salary adjustments early
next week, after the mail from Hawaii
and Maui on Saturday. The depart
ment is facing a shortness of available
funds and there will be no increases of
salaries to be reported, while to make
ends meet for the period without hav-
ing to cut salaries, the department is
cutting down the number of rooms and
teachers.
In the meanwhile the statistics show
the steady gain in the number of pu-
pills attending the schools of the Ter
ritory, a gain that will throw addition
al work on the reduced teaching staff
without bringing them any additional
pay. The school census taken at the
end of June of this year shows that
there are altogether 23,455 children at
tending school, to teach whom there
were 694 teachers engaged This is a
gain of practically an even thousand
over 1907 in the number of pupils and
slight falling off in the number of
teachers, the loss in the latter being
caused by the closing up of some of
the private schools. From June, 1906,
to June, 1908, the gain in attendance
at the schools has been 1865, while the
gain in the number of teachers employ
ed has been two.
A comparison of the attendance at
all the schools, public and private, for
the past fifty years, by decades, is in
teresting. Beginning in 1854, the earli-
est figures available, the attendance
dropped rapidly for thirty years, until
in 1884 there were only about tive
thirds as many pupils as in the ffties.
Then the turn came and the number
of school children began to increase
rapidly, more than doubling in the
twenty years between 1884 and 1904
The figures are: 1854, 12,432; 1864,
s.297; 1874, 7,755; 1884, S,723; 1894,
11,3o7; 1904, 1929; and 1908, 23,455.
The statistics of attendance show
the remarkable increase made in the
number of Japanese children growing
up in Hawaii, out of the total of 3,455
of all nationalities this year the Jap
anese numbering 5510 or twenty-three
and a half per cent, the percentage of
japanese of the total attendance hav-
ing grown steadily in growing total.
The number of Chinese children is
also growing, having increased, in spite
of the growing total, from $50 per cent
in 1906 to 11.06 per cent this year.
Hawaiians show steady and rapid
decrease in percentage and a small de-
crease in actual attendance daring the
past three years There has been a
falling off, too, in the number or white
children, including those of the Portu-
guese, who for statistical purposes are
put in classification by themselves.
The percentages of attendance by the
tionalities during the past three years
are.
