sovereign.
Occasionally, the weird, high pitched

retainer. who recited the glories of the
dynasty of the Queen and traced her
genealogy far back into distant gem
erations until it was lost sight of in
hazy tradition, foated in from the
grounds The Hawaiian band, station
ed under the trees played Hawaiian
airs, and none was more touching than
Aloha Oe,'' and even the Queen s
eyes grew misty as the plaintive, Sob
bling notes came to her ears.
The reception room was filed with
beautiful kahilis, emblems of the royal
days past. The feathers from which
many of the kahilis have a historic
value The stands in which the kahih
stats rested were draped with tapa
cloths of many colors. In the hallway
We're many of these beautiful emblems.
The visiting Southern Congressman
felt they were in the land of their
birth when they first gazed upon the
Colonial porches of Washington Place,
and entered the old-fashioned doorway.
At the entrance they were met by Mr..
Lilikalani in evening dress, who wore
the orders of Kapiolani, Kalakaua and
Oceanic. Almost the first visitor of
the Congressional party was Hon. Rich
ard Bartholdt, dean of the party, and
following him came most of the other
members. The Queen received them all
with the utmost eordiality, and gave
them a little more time in passing the
receiving line than others, courtesy
evidently appreciated. All afterward
subscribed their names in Her Ma
jesty's guest book
Several Hawaiian societies visited
Washington Place. One of the pretty
features of the day was the hookupu,
or ancient and time-honored custom of
presenting the Queen with an offering.
Among the gifts were two koa kahili
stands and koa table, presented by
the Society of Royal Feathers (Ahahui
Hull Ali Liliuokalani), named after
the queen, of which Mrs. Elizabeth
Mahiai Robinson is president. This
is society which meets periodically
for the purpose of renovating, repair
ing and otherwise preserving Hawaii IS
old royal emblems, which are valuable
on account of their rarity. In this
way the old relics of the monarchical
regime are insured from the ravages
of pests and old age.
In the room with the reception party,
stood the kahili bearers, wearing
around their necks ahuulas, short capes
made from rare yellow feathers. The
bearers were Joseph Kaloio, John Ma
ma, Henry Rodgers and B. N. Kahale-
puma.
In the afternoon, the queen gave a
luau at her Waikiki Beach home, only
her intimate friends being present. The
Hawaiian band was in attendance.
The Congressional party members
present at the reception were Hon.
Chas. F. Scott and wife, Hon. j. NJ.

AGRICULTURAL
TESTS PRAISED
Continued From rage one,

lS6nIiEueG from rage One.J
or Middle Westerners, and all interested
IN agricultural development, were pilot
ed from the Young Hotel to the Federal
Experiment Station, then to the expert
ment station of the Hawaiian Sugar
Planters Association, and then to the
Bureau Of Agriculture and Forestry of
the Territory of Hawaii, by Governor
Ffear, f. NJ Swanzy of the Planters
Association, f Nj. Hatch, George b.
Mcclellan, and c. III. Mcbride of the
Governor S Office.
At the Federal Experiment Station
they were met by Mr.. Higgins, who con-
dueted them through the buildings and
over the grounds. The crowded condi-
tion of the small buildings was ocular
evidence of the need of an appropria-
tion for additional and larger struc-
lures for the important experiments
being conducted by the staff of experts.
From small beginnings, under Jared
Smith, several years ago, the Federal
Experiment Station has made rapid
strides under DIR. Wilcox. and the va
ried experimental work, both indoors
and out of doors, requires more room,
more money, and more people
It was shown that the people of the
Territory have not only benefited by the
experiments, but the remark of Repre-
sentative Gambler indicates that the
experiments are proving of value to the
mainland.
The experiment in cotton growing was
source of much interest, and they
handled cotton bolls with the hands OF

is the Sea Island variety. 1t was point
ed out also that the by-produets will be
of great value.
Experiments in tree budding were
also looked into with interest, and it
was at a late hour that the party left
the Federal station for the Planters
station.
Mr.. Swanzy introduced the party to
Mr. Eekart, the director of the station
and to the members of the entomology
zeal staff. They were shown the. in
sects which have proven obstructionists
to the development Of sugar cane, and
the Congressman were particularly inter
ested in the appearance of the leaf hop
per, which at one time threatened to
destroy the entire sugar industry of the
Islands. Mr.. Swanzy explained how the
association sent its experts to Austria
liza, where they found the enemy of the
hopper, and by introducing it here and
propagating it, all but annihilated the
pest.
In the pathological department they
were shown tubes containing expert
ments being conducted with regard to
diseases of grapes, pineapples, trees, ct
cetefa, all of which are outside of the
original experiments of the association
, but which are conducted to aid in the
general research for means to annihi
late diseases of plant life.

be the only way to replace the dead
forests.
The experiments in cane cultivation,
under all the varied scientific eondi-
tions, were shown in the station fields,
and the Congressman spent much time
there
The last visit of the day was made at
the Bureau of Agriculture and Forestry.
where the staff conducted the party
through the various departments. The
efforts to keep fruit and tree pests out
of the islands were explained in detail,
and the collection of preserved fruits,
Hawaiian woods and chronological ex-
periments proved of interest
A couple of young ladies of the Con
gressi0nal party started on the tour of
the agricultural stations, but, after
viewing the city from the summit of
Punchbowl, decided that they preferred
to keep an early engagement for the
surfing party, given by Miss Harriet
Hatch at Waikiki, and they, with Mr.
Hatch, were given a rapid ride to the
beach in Mr.. Lords big Stearns ma

Merchants Association Luncheon.
AT CLOCK TINS afternoon, the Mer-
chants Association will tender a lun-
cheon to the Congressional party and
other invited guests at the CONNER
cial Club. l.. A. Thurston will deliver
an address on the transportation ques-
ton. He will go into the history of
shipping regulations, and the Difficult
ties which face islanders and main
, landers in travelling between the Pa
| cifc Coast and Hawaii, and will pre-
sent arguments showing that sub
| sidy should be granted American ship
ping or the coastwise shipping law
should be suspended. Honorable Rich.
ard Bartholdt, of Missouri, and Hon
orable George W. Taylor. of Alabama
/ will respond for the Congressman.
! Mr.. Bartholdt has given expression to
The Pacific commercial advertiser. [volume] (Honolulu, Hawaiian Islands) 1885-1921, 1909-09-03

strong views on the transportation
question, as he believes in abolishing
the coastwise laws altogether. He be-
lieves them to be Anticipated and not
designed to apply to Hawaii. He is
doubtful about ship subsidies. His
views will undoubtedly be expressed
along these lines this afternoon.
Favor Harbor Enlargement.
Piloted by Major Winslow, Corps En-
gineers, and Major Clee, Chief of the
Artillery for the District of Honolulu;
Representatives woodward, McLachlan.
Taylor and Humphreys made a tour Of
the harbor yesterday forenoon in a
launch. The visitors were shown how
the harbor has been enlarged and de-
.veloped under congressional appropria
tions.
The harbor lines, proposed under sur
veys made by the Army engineers and
taking in a much larger area than at
present, were shown on maps, and the
limits indicated. The harbor will ex-
tend beyond the present location of
the quarantine wharf almost to the
limits of Sand Island.
Representative woodward stated that
if quarantine wharf stands in the way
of the enlargement of the harbor, it
should certainly be put back. He stat
ed also that the engineers want an ap-
preparation of 100000 to cut new
slice out of the virgin coral on the
outer side of the harbor, to commence
the enlargement and improvement. He
expressed himself as favorably dis
posed toward the development of the
harbors of Hawaii, particularly that of
Honolulu.
He will take notice of the manner
in which the big Pacific Mail steam.
ship Mongolia has to maneuver around
the harhor when the party leaves on
that vessel for the mainland, and from
the ships deck will study the need
of harbor enlargement and get informa-
ton at first hand.
The Congressman making the tour of
the harbor yesterday are members OF
the Rivers and Harbors Committee.

Old SUIT DISMISSED
BECAUSE Of DEATH

The long standing suit of W. G.
Peacock versus Allen N. Bottomley.
Alexander Garvie, James L. Cockburn,
John G. Rothwell and Charles S.
Weight, was dismissed by Judge Whit-
ney on motion yesterday. The suit was
an action for $4,000 damages claimed
by Mr.. Peacock because he was, it was
alleged, forcibly and ANONYMOUSLY
elected from his store by Nigel Jack
son at the instance of the plaintiffs.
The plaintiff, W. G. Peacock, and one
of the defendants, Alexander Garvie,
have died since the suit was begun,
and the motion to dismiss was based
on the ground that the action was in
tort and therefore incapable of being
assumed by the representatives of the
deceased plaintiff.
