THE CONTEMPT
CASE NOW ON

Again the strike agony is up for air
ing in court. This morning Judge
Robinson began the hearing of the Or
der to show cause why they should
not be punished for contempt of court,
against Maxine, Negoro, Sega, Tasa-
ka and more than a score others, for
alleged acts of disobedience of the in
junction to refrain from interfering
with the business of Oahu Sugar Co.
S. M. Ballou and NJ. F. Prosser APP
peared for the prosecution, Mr.. Pros
ser opening to the court, and j. Light
foot for the respondents.
From the running debate that occa-
sionally took place it was evident
that the defense is banking on the
qualifications in the injunction. Pick
citing for instance is admitte1Jin some
of the answers. Mr.. Lightfoot reiter-
ated the admission in court, but
laughed gleefully over the qualifying
words of the mandate, such as ''un-
lawful" and picketing for the pur-
pose of intimidation"
AS the prosecution has begun put
ting on evidence, there is no saying
in days how long a decision must be
awaited. ,ta

Congressman and Mrs. Scott were
met this forenoon on their way to the
Capitol, sightseeing for themselves,
by Governor Frear, who personally
showed them all through the building.
Congressman Padgett remarked that
three and a half millions had already
been appropriated for work on Pearl
Harbor and he expected to see some
thing doing. If there were accommo-
dations in the Pacific, we would prob
ably have large fleet in this ocean to-
day." he said, but there are not the
shipyards for repairs and not the
complete bases that are required. With
Pearl Harbor completed and the
completion of Western coast bases we
may expect to see as big a feet of AM
erican war vessels maintained in the
Pacific as will be on duty in the At
lantic. The Navy is going to in
crease steadily and there will be plenty
of ships for this ocean when there are
accommodations to take care of them
Congressman Dawson was one OF
those who, on leaving the Siberia this
morning, footed it through the China
town section of the city, conducting
themselves where the fancy led them.

LAST HONORS TO
CHAS. N. COOKE

Public funeral services over the urn
containing the ashes of the late c.
M. Cooke in Cetnrai Union Church yes
terday afternoon were largely atted-
ed. Representatives of many nation
alities were present. There was a
great mass OF floral offerings upon the
platform, surrounding the small table,
draped with a silver embroidered cloth,
upon which the urn rested. The
pail bearers occupying the front pews
with the chief mourners Immediately
behind, were p C. Jones, Rev. Hans
Isenberg, Judge S. B. Dole, Robert
Levers, William R. Castle, George r.
Carter, DR.. A. B. Clark, e. Faxon
Bishop, W. o. Smith, and j. A. Ken
nedy.
Dr. Scudder, preaching the sermon
said it was the sixth time within year
that the congregation had assembled
to pay honor to the ashes of members
of the second generation of the early
missionary families who came to Ha-
wall to spread the gospel. He stated
that the development of commercial
opportunities, in which Mr.. Cooke had
displayed genius, was not in his mind
as his life work. On February 10, 1867
with other young friends he present
ed himself as a candidate for member
ship in Fort street church, and two
weeks later the church voted to receive
B. Bond, Geo. r. Castle, A. F. Cooke,
C. NJ. Cooke and S. w. Wilcox.
Il wonder what the church history
of these islands would be if these six
young men had not come forward and
given themselves to the service OF
/ Christ
In conclusion DR.. Scudder referred
to the munificent generosity of Mr..
Cooke, and the quiet manner in which
his benefactions were distributed.
Before the funeral discourse Abide
With Me- had been sung by a special
choir consisting of Mrs. Bruce Mackall
Mrs. Wadhams, H. F. Wichman and
Stanley Livingston. At the conclu'
sion of the sermon the twenty-thirc
psalm was reard and the benedictior
pronounced, after which the urn was
borne to Kawaiahao churchyard anc
buried in the mission plot, DR.. Scud
der offering a prayer

FREAR BRAVES
RAGING SURF
CONTINUED from Page one.)

which The Star had already disposed
of, the Governor gave these further
particulars this morning:
Natives were cutting a trail up
the mountain, but when we reached
the top they had not got more than
half the way. We were within shout
ing distance of them, It was too late
for us to descend with no trail for
the upper half of the distance, It being
then three o'clock in the afternoon,
so we went back in the direction we
came on the trail as far as Kalalau,
the famous leper fastness.
From the Kalalau beach we left
in sampan, the whaleboat we ex-
pected to take having gone. We stop
ped at Honopu where it was too rough
to land, and we stripped and swan
ashore with our clothes on our backs.
Getting back to the boat the same way
we sailed under a jib to Milolii. From
there we climbed up a pail 1900 or
1900 feet in height. 1t was bare rock
and very precipitous.
"On the summit we found horses
waiting for us and rode to Kekaha,
from where we took automobiles to
Hanalei. We went to Kipukai on
horseback from Lihue the day we lett
for Honolulu.
We camped out several times. AT
Milolii we slept out in the open, scat
tering about upon a heavy growth OF
manienie grass. Twenty-Five or thir-
ty Hawailians came down to our camp
at Kalalau and chanted meles a great
part of the night. It being too rough
for the sampan to come inside the rect
the natives took us out in their boats.
"On top of the island we found many
s'Tamps FROM which a number of
streams arise flowing in small canyons
that drop suddenly into the great Wal
mea canyon, which is about 5000 feet
deep. The streams flow with remark
able uniformity though of course win
floods in rainy reasons, being fed by
the swamps AS the distance from
there to the arid part of the island is
not very great, probably a large area
of land on the Kekaha slopes could be
reclaimed with water from this source.
Messrs. Leighton and Campbell saw
the other parts of the island. Mr.,
Mendenhall is interested IN the geolo-
gical branch of the water problem"
