trees, is in grave danger of losing
them all. They have been spray

THE DEATH OF CHARLES
MONTAGUE COOKE.

On Friday morning at break of
dav, August 27, the soul of Presi-
dent Cooke returned to God, who
gave it. This mans life, in his
home, in his work and for his
Maker was marked by earnest
ness, simplicity and strictest prob
ity; he knew naught other.
Mr.. Cooke belonged to Homo
lulu, where his life began, on May
Io, I84o. He was a son of Amos
Starr Cooke and Juliette Mon
tague Cooke, Missionaries of the
American Board in Hawaii. He
leaves five sons and one daughter.
He was married to Anna c.
Rice April 80, 1874.
The funeral services for the
public were held in c. U. Church
on Sunday at $3.50.
1t was indeed an inspiring and
helpful thought, in looking over
that vast assemblage of men and
women, that had come to pay
honor and respect to the memory
of their townsman and friend, that
they combined, in worshipping
Almighty God in that hushed and
solemn hour. Hundreds of those
present had gone along with Mr..
Cooke from boyhood.
He was like one of their very
own; their joys and sorrows had
been mutual. To know, that he
had gone forever from this world
of Honolulu was hard; it was in
deed, a blow.
Mr.. Cooke was not an old man;
but, he had done a master-work-
mans all round piece of work !;
and, on the face of this Hawaii,
this Honolulu, is carved, forever,
the name of "Charles Montague
Cooke"

REPRESENTATIVE RODEN.
BERG.

This is my second visit to the
Hawaiian Islands. Eight years
ago, while member of the
United States Civil Service Com
mission, I spent two months in
the Islands, classifying the en-
ployes in the government service.
This was shortly after annexa-
ton.
1t is very gratifying indeed to
note the marvellous advancement
along all lines that has been made
during those eight years. Homo
lulu is today modern, progress
i've and thoroughly up-to-date
American city. There is a splen-
did spirit of genuine Americanism
throughout the Islands which
augurs we'll for the future. All
of the animosities engendered by
the change in government have
passed away and the citizenship
generally seems to be completely
reconciled to American control.

Holmes, you will remember, used
to date his letters to offset some
one else's fad as Beverly-By-The-
Depot.
The President soon starts on
his $4,000 mile-journey, which he
will not find so restful as sitting
on the veranda and absorbing the
cool sea-breezes, or spinning in
his automobile (they say he is a
recklessly fast rider) through the
leafy lanes of Essex County.

Thomas G. Shanahan, coxswain
on the flagship Tennessee, will be
honored tomorrow morning at in

pins on his breast the gold medal,
given by the Navy Department

March I, 1909, while the vessels
were lying off Panama. Boats
vain Nelson was accidentally
thrown overheard, and being un-
able to swim, would have drown-
ed had it not been for the brave
and quick action of Shanahan,
who leaped to his rescue and man
aged to keep the man UP until help
came. Notice of the brave act
reached Washington, and spe-
cial medal was ordered made by
the Navy Department. This Adj
miral Sebree will present to
Shanahan tomorrow morning.
