CELEBRATED FOR
EMPEROR'S DAY
Japanese Banquet Sport and
Decorate in Honor Of Their
Rulers Birthday.
tFrom Thursdays Advertlser.l

NfTulH lluIsudS AuNtlAlStl'g
japanese of Honolulu celebrated the
birthday of the Emperor of Japan yes
terday, almost every subject of His
Majesty making holiday of the occa-
sion. There were many opportunities
to display enthusiasm for their august
sovereign, including receptions, games,
athletic exercises and dinners.
Consul General Uyeno gave official re-
cepticns at the consular residence on
Nuuanu avenue in the forenoon, the
first from nine to half past ten O'Clock
being for Japanese subjects only, and
another from eleven clock to half
past twelve being for the foreign"
population. The grounds of the con-
sulate were attractively decorated with
red and white bunting, the national
colors of the Empire.
For the foreign population the re-
ception was altogether formal, but the
hospitality of the consul and the consul
eleve and secretaries was charming
Guests were met at the veranda by
| secretaries of the consulate and ushered
to the reception hall where they were
greeted by the consul and consul eleve.
Both officials wore their full dress uni
forms heavily embroidered with gold,
and both wore their swords of office.
Governor Frear, Captain Rees, United
States Navy; Colonel Denny, USING;
Major Long and Captain Mark, of the
same corps; Major Ray, paymaster, U.
S.A. Major Dunning, Goth Infantry,
U.S.A., and many other service officers
were among those who called early.
The members of the consular corps werc
also present and consular flags were
floated above the respective offices
down town.
Last evening the consul gave an out.
of-doors banquet for Japanese in the
grounds of the consular residence.
Tables for 400 guests were placed on
the lawn and over this area was stretch
ed canvas, and at one side an elevated
stage, attractively decorated, was plac.
ed for musicians and geishas and other
performers.
, Athletic sports were the order of the
day on the grounds of the Japanese
school, Nuuanu avenue, and also at Ka-
kaako. Fencing, wrestling matches and
, n number of other sports were on the
r programs and these were largely at
0 tended.

japanese flags. Although quietly OBJ

CAPTAIN REEFS
ALMOST ADMIRAL
Commission Not Yet Signed by
President Who Is
En- Tour.

During the course of Colonel Denny's
address at the Commercial Club yes
terday that officer constantly referred
to Captain Rees, the commandment of
the Honolulu naval station, as Admiral
Rees. Coming from the lips of ser
vice officer, it appeared that Colonel
Denny was using the newer title adj
visedly, inasmuch as on October 90
last Captain Rees' promotion to the
grade of admiral should have become
effective.
On account of President Taft being
on his tour of the United States it is
quite likely that the executive has had
no time to sign up the new commits
sions. The President will be back at
the White House in few days and
the commission appointing Captain
Rees an admiral in the navy will doubt
less be signed

Pearl Harbor Work.
al am primarily here for the pur

the construction at Pearl Harbor of, a
marine barracks and six to eight or
ten sets of officers quarters. The prop
osition is to have located at Pearl Har
Dor naval station a regiment of marines
consisting of about 1900 men. The pro-
gram which was outlined by Admiral
Rees here, contemplates the location of
two and possibly three regiments which
would mean from 250O to 5000 or 1000
marines. At present we have an APP
preparation for only preliminary work,
Just one barracks. Our intention is
annually hereafter to recommend that

The same scenes which took place at

An intense effort is being made to keep
the proceedings secret and a sort of trial

Gil were now against the Sixteenth and

Although the country for miles surround

posses Of men 20 the number Of between
200 and 800 no trace has yet been found
OF the man who shot Officer Hawley Tues
day night. Among the suspects now in

with the circumstance leading up to the
shooting and from what can be learned
the disturbance was a mere fake for the
purpose OF attracting the attention Of the
officer so that he might be gotten away
