FOURTH Or JULY ON
THE Vastly DEEP

The Fourth of July was celebrated
on Antlpodes day by the passengers on
the Mongolia. A good supply of fire.
works and prizes to be offered to con
testants in decks sports had been TAX
en- aboard at Yokohama, and a COM
mittee to take charge of arrangements
was appointed by Mr.. O'Brien, the
American Ambassador at Toxic. The
committee in charge of arrangements
was headed by the Hon. Charles L.
Denby. The Committee on Sports was
composed of Mr.. E. E. Megett, an Eng
lishman, and Mr.. j. r. Jameson,
Canadian.
In the forenoon many packages of
firecrackers were discharged by the
younger Americans, but the larger sup.
ply of fireworks was reserved for use
in the evening. The forenoon and
early afternoon We're given up to ath-
letic contests and other deck sports in
which the contestants were drawn
from several nations. Prizes went to
citizens of Great Britain, China and
France as well as to Americans,
Chinese boys and girls were particu-
larly fortunate in winning prizes.
After dinner Mr.. DENLY introduced
Mr.. O'Brien, who made brief speech
in which he predicted that the Pacific
Coast would eventually become the
front door of America in a commercial
sense, and spoke of the necessity for
preparation upon the part of the Unit
ed States for the discharge of the sur
plusage of the expanding west across
Pacific to the Asian markets. The even
ing fireworks display was held upon
the after deck. Afterward an in
formal dance was given for first cabin
passengers.
At Sabbath services patriotic hymns
were sung after a sermon had been de-
livered by the Rev. w. G. Cram, of
Kentucky, for several years a mis-
sionary in Korea.
AT the request of the passengers up
on the Mongolia Mr.. w. r. Castle de-
livered two lectures upon Hawaii dur
ing the voyage from Yokohama His
first address was upon the Hawaiian
Islands, geographically, typographical
ly, agriculturally and politically.
Mr.. Castle, who was introduced by
Mr.. DENLY, said that there existed
abroad no little misinformation as to
how the Hawaiian Islands became
United States territory. He explained
the developments that led to annexa-
ton, and dwelt upon the benefits that
have accrued to the people of the is
lands as n result of annexation and
the introduction of American capital.
Mr., Castle s second lecture was up.
on the volcanoes of Hawaii which he
described as being the only tame and
trustworthy volcanoes in the known

THE TRUTH ALWAYS.

When you are in doubt tell
the truth" 1t was an expert
enced old diplomat who said this
to beginner in the work. 1t
may pass in some things, but
not in business. Fraud and de-
ception are often profitable so
long as concealed; yet detection
is certain sooner or later; then
comes the smash-up and tho
punishment. The best and safest
way is to tell the truth all the
time. Thus you make friends
that stick by you, and a reputa-
tion that is always worth twen-
ty shillings to the pound every.
where your goods are offered for
sale. We are able modestly to
affirm, that it is on this basis
that the worldwide popularity of

RE 7 URNS
HOME

|, In the opinion of w. R. Castle. who
returned on the Mongolia last evening
from an outing in Japan with his
daughter, Miss B. Castle, the japanese
cabinet does not take the view that
the strike of Japanese plantation la.
borers in the Hawaiian Islands is a
matter which greatly concerns them,
and he is also of the opinion that the
conservative estimate of the strike
among the official and better element
is that it was unjustifed and the work
of agitators. OF course, the news of
the strike when published in Japan
caused considerable excitement and for
awhile there was no definite understand
ing of how it was brought about.
On the same steamer with Mr.. Castle
was Mr.. w. Dening, who is connected
with the Japanese government, and has
been sent here to investigate the strike.
He was met last evening by Consul.
General Uyeno. The Consul was also
at the dock to greet Ambassador
O'Brien. The latter was met at the
anchorage by Chester Doyle of the
High Sheriff's Office and escorted by
him to the Moana Hotel. The Ambas.
sador continues on to the Coast on the
Mongolia.

tFrom wednesday,s AdvertIser.l

From Wednesdays Advertiser)
The following detailed account of the
capsizing and sinking of the gasoline
launch Rainbow off the coast of Mo-
lokai on Sunday afternoon, in which
| the lives of twenty-five school chill
dren were in peril for some time. was
received yesterday by the Rev. w. B.
Oleson, secretary of the Hawaiian
Board of Missions, from Matthew Ka.
ne, dated at Halawa, Molokai, July 3:
The Halawa Sunday-school pupils
numbering forty-two in all, besides the
three men who managed the gasoline
launch, met serious accident while on
their way to attend the Hoike of the
Molokai Sunday schools at Kaunaka.
kai.
The launch left here a little after
o clock yesterday with crowd of
about forty people. About half of
this number were children. When thew
got around the Kapuupoi point the sail
was hoisted thinking that by doing SO
they would get down to Kaunakakai
sometime before sunset.
While the launch was about one
quarter of mile from shore out of
the Honoulis an unusually large swell
came up. The launch listed to one side.
that is, to the leeward side; the pas
sengers, who were all on deck, were
also moved to that side by the motion
of the boat AS this weight was too
great the ballast could not bring the
boat to its right position. The sea
came into the engine room and in a
very short time the launch was upset.
1t was pitiful sight to see young
children of ten years old swimming
about. AS many as the little boat on
the launch could hold were carried
ashore. The rest of the children were
carried ashore on boards except ten
people, among whom there were five
young children, who held on to the
launch as they could find no object to
rest on.
An old lady, who was among this
number, died after one hour of ex-
posure and at the time when the
canoes with helping hands were near,
the helping hands came three or four
minutes after she expired. 1t is for
tunate that the upseting of the launch
was seen by some cowboys who were
on the hills. They sent word from Mo-
anui by telephone to our Sheriff who
sent his canoes well manned to the
scene of accident, saving the party
who clung to the upset launch, and
also brought ashore the remains of
our dead sister in Christ.
We are thankful to Mr.. Cook, of
Kaunakakai, for coming all the way
from Kaunakakai to the scene of ac-
cident. He did all he could to
help clothe those who needed such helm.
Each one of these people have lost
their baggage and all. Some even
took all their clothes and they did not
have very many clothes.
Today they haven't anything worthy
TO be called clothes-they have moth
ing else to wear but their old denim
working shirts and pants.
DO YOU think these people will get
help in matter of clothes from those
who are able to give help?

Prevent Postponement.

Proceedings were continued yester-
day before Circuit Judge Robinson in
the trial of the twelve Japanese charg-
ed with rioting at Waipahu on June s,
when an attempt was made to rescue a
prisoner from Police Officer Wills and
several specials.
Attorney Lightfoot for the defense
asked for continuance on the ground
that he had not been given fair op.
portunity of examining Fuchino and
Kawakami, two of the defendants in
the riot cases, who were arrested for
their connection with the imprisoning
of three Japanese on Sunday and their
inquisition at a headquarters of the
Higher Wage Association.
Lightfoot had a collection of affi
davits in support of his motion for a
continuance, He stated that he went
to the police station on the day Kawa
kami and Fuchino were arrested, but
was refused permission to converse with
them, they being examined at the time
by the officers of the prosecution. +.
This incident caused Lightfoot TO re
fer to the Constitution of the United
States and dwell on the rights of pris
oners, whom he seems to think ought
to have moIe privileges than an ordi

tion of the law.
Mr.. Kinney, for the prosecution, re-
piled to Lightfoot's IS remarks by stating
that he had been given an opportunity
during the morning to hold a consulta-
tion with Fuchino; but that Lightfoot
had not availed himself of it. Judge
Robinson seemed to take the same view
of the matter, and denied the motion
for a continuance. Lightfoot next at
tackled the sufficiency of the indictment
which was returned against the twelve
accused rioters, enumerating number
of points which he considered TO be de.
fects. All of the efforts and oratory
by the attorney for the defense were
unavailing, however, and the trial was
resumed.
Fuchino and Kawakami, charged with
falsely imprisoning three japanese la

Must Not
Sell Fireworks.

The business men Of this city had
better take cognizance of the fact that
a city ordinance now prohibits the sale
or giving away of fireworks of all sorts.
Even the small two-inch frecracker
may not be sold except at the.-.discre-
ton Of the Chief of Police. The old
ordinance was amended at a special
session of the city council last Monday
evening and instruction was given that
the provisions be strictly enforced.
Heretofore there has been no provision
against the sale of fireworks. but the
ordinance did provide that no fireworks
should be exploded within the city
limits.
The city council is determined that a
disastrous fire shall not result from any
neglect on it's part, hence the amend
ment to the ordinance.

Hofer Happy
Over Rainfall

Colonel E. Hofer, of Salem, editor,
r ainmaker and Gubernatorial candidate,
was registered at the Oregon, in Port
land Sunday accompanied by his son,
Larry, University of Oregon student.
Colonel Hofer was on his way to Burns,
Ha1ney County, to attend meeting
of the Oregon-Idaho Development
Congl ess, which eonvenes in that
Eastern Oregon town next Friday.
Titles sometimes are conferred on
men, but the Salem newspaper man is
said to have earned the military prefix
to his name from actual service in the
Iowa National Guard. He has long
been known as the editor and publisher
of the Salem Capital Journal. His des-
ignation as rainmaker is a more recent
acquisition. Realizing that rain was
an indispensable necessity to crops in
the Willamette Valley, Hofer last week
suggested through his paper that the
people of Salem unite in praying for
rain.
Thursday night was the time ap-
pointed for offering these supplications.
It is presumed there was a general re-
sponse to Hofer's suggestion; at any
rate, Marion County and other sections
of the Willamette Valley were visited
by a generous shower within IL hours
afterwards. While Hofer is not in
clined to question the efficacy of prayer,
he is diffident about-claiming all of the
credit single-handed for the rain which
followed the supplications of himself
and his neighbors, even though the
agency for bringing the showers was
of his own suggestion.

JULY 22 THE DAY SELECTED
May Provide Souvenirs or Literature
for the Occasion. Committee is
Now Working on Plan. Linn Coun-
ty May Join With Benton.

At meeting of the Executive Com
mittee of the Commercial Club Tues.
day afternoon, Thursday, July %, was
designated Benton county day at the
Seattle Exposition. However, Linn
county is considering the idea of join.
ing Benton in demonstration and the
date might possibly be changed if it is
deemed absolutely necessary in order to
accommodate the people across the river,
President johnson made an effort to
get Polk and Lincoln counties to join
with Benton and Linn but it appears
that neither county is prepared to do
so.
Just what sort of demonstration will
be made on the date selected is not yet
determined, committee having. been
appointed to work out some definite
plan. If the customary plan is carried
out, Benton county will simply keep
open shop at the Oregon building, the
hostess, Mrs. w. H.. Savage, serving
to all visitors fruit, or liquid refresh-
ments and, with the aid of others, hand
out such souvenirs or literature of Benz
ton county as may be furnished, At
the Lewis and Clark Exposition, the
special days to cities, counties and state
were made notable and pleasing by the
lavish distribution of badges, buttons,
booklets and things of that sort, with
special receptions, but the local COM
mittee hopes to improve on the old idea,
That Benton county should, at some
time during the fair, distribute some-
thing that will let fair visitors know
| we are in existence is certain. IT the
committee can work out something and
then find the money necessary there
will be something doing on Benton
county day.

NOTED ATTORNEY AND PARTY EN-
ROUTE NORTH.
DINE kTTHE HOTEL CORVALLIS
Many Local People Meet Distinguished
Visitors---Jim Lewis Sells Heney
Real Estate---Bob Johnson Presents
Cherries---Informal Reception.

MIR. and Mrs. Francis J. Heney, with
DIR. Shadworth, M. Beasley, John Nc
Carthen and John Mclaughlin, were in
Corvallis yesterday evening, en- route
to Portland and Seattle. The party left
Eugene at p. M, and took dinner Tor
supper as the case may be) at the Ho-
tel Corvallis, continuing on to Salem
that evening in their big White steamer.
The coming Of the distinguished party
had been heralded by telegraph and
quite a crowd gathered at the hotel to
catch glimpse of the leading figure in
the San Francisco prosecutions. They
found him an undersized man, appar-
emily of mild manner, and scarcely
wonder in any sense. Those who ex-
pected to see face SCARED by the bull
let from San Francisco's would-be as
sassin were disappointed, for close in
spection failed to show trace of the
wound that came so near removing Mr..
Heney from this terrestrial sphere.
Effort to get Mr.. Heney to make a
speech in the lobby of the hotel was un-
availing, and he would not talk "shop"
in private way. He said he was out
on a vacation and had left dull care be-
hind. He was genial, jolly, affable, and
gave no edidence by word or sign that
he is in reality a man-hunter.
Jim Lewis, real estate man always
ION the job" failed to recognize Mr..
Heney in the hotel lobby and sized him
up as one looking for bargain. Jim
presented his business card and Heney,
like royal sport, played the game. He
talked real estate with him and finally
agreed to continue the conversation Sin
the morning." When the boys put Mr.
Lewis "next," this old veteran went
out behind the hotel and kicked himself
thrice while the other fellows laughed.
While about the lobby number of
the local lights had the pleasure of
shaking hands with Mr.. Heney, and
Bob johnson takes pleasure in the fact
that he was introduced to Mr.. Heney's
charming wife. Bob was so pleased
that he even pointed the way to his big
cherry orchard on the road to Indepen-
dence and urged the distinguished Wis
itors to go in and carry off a tree or
two if they cared to do so. This invita-
ton that sounded good to Mr.. Heney,
but an invitation to appear before the
Commercial Club, then in session, was
declined with regret.
The Heney party left for Salem about
'7:3O and is continuing on to Seattle
where they will 'tdo'' the fair.

40 to 45 years ago. There are large
number of graves in the cemetery and
most of them have been sadly neglect

an effort to put the cemetery in proper
shape, but have found it extremely
difficult, and have finally secured the
cooperation there is in organization
