JAPANESE HONOR
THEIR ANCESTORS
NIPPcNEsE PAY cEREMoNIoUs
TRIBUTE IN MANY
CAMPS TO DEAD.

Most of the Japanese camps in Hon,
olulu were en- fete last night when the
weird ceremonies incidental to the me-
mortal tribute to the dead were held,
This, one of the greatest days in cere-
monious Japan, is supposed to be cele.
brated on the first day of the eighth
month, but locally it so arranged that
it falls on Saturday or holiday, as
most of the participants are laborers.
These ceremonies, the "Matsuri, -
were particularly bright at the Kinau
street camp last night, where between
three hundred and five hundred people
thronged the small court, surrounded
on the street side by the backs of
stores and on the other three sides by
the tenements.
The entire court was brilliantly lit
with the inevitable Japanese lantern.
In the center rose a tall, narrow plat
form, high above the heads Of the
crowd, where the costumed singers
stood. IL they could be called such,
while underneath a mammoth drum
throbbed at regular intervals, keeping
time for the singing and dancing.
Tho fete, which could mean little to
any except an oriental mind, Is part
of the ancestor worship cult, and the
most elaborate preparation is made fol-
it in Japan, and almost as much here
The dance, the main feature of the
celebration, is an attractive one, par
ticipated in by long line OF devotees
dressed in their ordinary kimonOs, but
with their faces wrapped IN cloth and
hiding it.
The Kinau, street camp obtained {
permit from, the sheriff for their cele
bration, but during the evening sew
eral complaints reached the police sta
tion over the beating of the greaI
drum, the sound of which was particu
larly penetrating, as there were sew
erhl sick persons in nearby house.
! Sergeant of Detectives Kellett AMI
several Of his officers were sent Il
the scene with orders to stop the drum
ming, and the celebrators agreed T.
mnffle It, The drums were stopped il
the midst Of the dance, the dancer
being compelled to halt their exercise
in tribute to the dead at once.
The police usually expect numerou
assaults on this occasion, but every
thing was quiet last night.

Dillingham; Bill Makes a
Number Of Radical
Changes.
CHINESE EXCLUSION
All NatiOnaIities Placed
on Same Plane for
Citizenship

WASHINGTON, Aug. Tone Of tho
most important and sensational efforts
at legislation which has been proposed
at this special session Of congress wiz
come up in the senate today, when
Senator Dillingham;, of Vermont, in
PRODUCES bill for new naturaliEa-
tiOn law. ,tat
1t was asserted last evening that the
principal points in the proposed new
laws are those repeating the present
Chinese exclusion law and providing for
the exclusion of all immigrants who
are ineligible to become citizens.
General Exclusion
But whilc the Dillingham; bill viii
repeal the Chinese exclusion law, it
provides that the Chinese shall not be-
come eligible for naturalization, couse-
quently they are still excluded by the
clause which prohibits the entry Of all
immigrants ineligible to become eiti-
zens by naturalization,
The special point of this change
without difference is that the gen
eral exclusion law win affect all nations
OF members of such which are debarred
by defects as we'll as nationality from
becoming citizens and thus relieve the
Chinese of the special stigma, which
that government has resented for
years, even to boyeOtting, Of special
legislation against them
Keeps Out nliterates.
Another important clause in the bill
provides for the exclusion Of all grown
immigrants who are illiterates.
There are many congressman who
believe that the Anticipated immigrs-
tiOn laws should be changed to meet
new conditions in this country, as well
as the kind of immigrants which are
flocking here. 1t is limited that the
great steamship companies will bitterly
fight the new bill.

GREGoR's LANDING. i,

WAILUHU, August 5.-The Maui
loan fund commission opened bids for
The construction of bridges and roads
on the belt road line today, and the
bids received were as follows:
For nine concrete bridges in the Ha-
ma district, Theo. Baumann, $93,025;
Chas. Lucas, $32,775; Lord & Young
Engineering Co., $Sl, 626.SO; w. R. Pat
terson, 1910.
For the Pauwela section of the belt
road, from Maliko gulch to Waikina
bridge; j. Duggan 1851 Theo. Bau-
mann, $49,9SO; w. r. Patterson, $49,.
$50,
Both contracts go to w. R. Patterson,
the lowest responsible bidder, at &c.,
800, for the two contracts.
The bid for the Pauwela relocation
was accepted. and as the amount of
funds available in the hands Of the
commission was less than the total of
the two bids, and Marston Campbell
having sent word to defer acceptance
of bid for concrete bridges until he
had examined the bid, acceptance of
this bid was deferred.
Schools Needed.
Messrs. Wells and Copeland, supervis-
ing principals inquired os the commits
sion regarding its plans for erection Of
needed new school buildings, and was
told school buildings will have to wait
until money from the new bond issue
was available. In response to ques.
tion by Mr.. Pogue, acting chairman of
the meeting, Mr.. Wells stated the
schools badly in need of additional
room at present were the Olowalu
school and the pne at Camp One,
Spreckelsville.
Members Of the commission were in
favor of building open airy school
buildings as against the close air tight
style Of buildings in vogue now. Mr..
Pogue stated building after the pat
tern of an open air lanai would be
best and healthiest for climate like
that here.
The commission voted an increase OF
salary of $25 month to Mr.. Harvey
its engineer.
McGregor's Landing.
That something should be done right
away to the McGregor Landing is the
opinion held by all who have been ia
/ the landing. Last night the swell was
so heavy that passengers were unable
to get ashore from the boats Of the
Mauna Kea. One of the boats that
tried to make a landing was driver
! head on partly under the wharf anC
only escaped being swamped by tn,
rarest piece Of good luck.
Passengers from the wharf were Lbl,
to jump into the boats, but those il
the, boats, having to jump skywardl
lacked the skill and nerve to scrambl,
ashore and had to 60 back TO the steam
err. The boats of the Milahala, earle
in the evening, while trying to lant
some freight there, were near beinI
swamped, freight damaged by sal
water, and the AIikahala had to 20 owe
and land the freight at Kihei.
It is the general opinion that /
would be throwing good money afte
bad to repair and put on an additioj
to the McGregor wharf If the quei
tion of landing were put to vote
a return to the Maalaea landing wOul
carry everything hands down.
