CONTROL
OF INSTRUCTION
IS OPPOSED

"The territory officially does not OPP
pose Japanese instruction of Japan
ese school children, nor of the use
of the public school buildings for that
purpose during hours other than those
employed in giving them an English
education, but the control of the
Japanese instruction cannot be given
to any private corporation"
Such is the statement today of At
torney General Thayer, commenting
on a communications from Libby, Nc
Neil & Libby, who own vast pine
apple acreage in the vicinity of Kahu-
luu, Oahu. The firm asks that the
government build schoolhouse at
Kahaluu and offers a fifteen-year
lease OF small tract for the institu-
ton. But it makes the lease con-
ditional on the provision that in
struction in Japanese shall be pro-
vided from 2 to 6 o'clock each school
day and that this shall be handled
under the company's supervision.
So far as the Japanese instruction
is concerned no difficulty would be
encountered, as the public schools
close at 2 o'clock each afternoon,
after which, according to new law
passed by the last legislature, the
buildings are open to use. by the citi-
zens of the district for meetings or
educational purposes. But the private
corporation win not be given author
itv to dictate how the buildings shall
be used at any time.

LACE FORA
GRAD. GOWN

Important questions are being con-
silered by many girls all over the
country who are to graduate in June,
but not the least of these is the ques-
ton, What shall have for my grad
uation gown"
Simplicity is not only the keynote
OF the general styles Of the season,
but it is particularly desirable that
the graduation dress should abe
simple, youthful and exquisitely
dainty. Everywhere one goes incthe
shopping centers is seen wonderful
display of materials in such wide
variety of qualities that a frock may
be selected at any price that is de-
sired. One of the striking features
of the display is the remarkably
pretty materials which will make
charming frocks at SO little cost.
The cotton materials gbordered in
white are particularly desirable and
are really inexpensive, as the border
furnishes trimming. White wolfe,
null, batiste and the popular crepe
weaves are all excellent. Many of
these materials come in both silk and
cotton, and may be made as expen-
sive or as inexpensive as is de-
sired.
For wear after the graduating day
there is nothing more useful than a
dress made Of lace. That statement
may not seem strictly practical for
the word lace leads one to think of all
sorts of dressy occasions, but lace
flouncings are used so much this sea-
son that lace dress may be made
extremely simple.
There is no summer dress that is
easier to keep in order than that Of
lace, and it is quite as admirable as
lingerie, as well as being less expen-
sIve. 1t is also suitable for winter
parties. so 1t answers double pur-
pose. A filmy net lace may be pur-
chased at moderate cost, and, If the
flouncing is wide enough, two of them
would reach to the waist and form a
skirt remarkably easy of cOnstruc-
tion. A light weight silk or satin is
necessary for the drop skirt, and il
the lower flounce is slightly draped
it will make a charmingly simple and
effective graduating dress.
Possibly a girl has been spending

WARSHIPS Seen
IN MANEUVERS
FROM SIBERIA

Black smoke belching from scores
of tunnels, came within the range of
vision of officers in the Pacific. Mail
Siberia, who trained powerful glasses
upon most thrilling and novel sight,
after the commercial liner had steam
ed away from her berth at Yokohama,
Japan, and out from the land-locked
confines of Tokyo bay, in the direc-
ton of the broad Pacific and the He
Waiian islands.
The appearance of what is now re-
ported to have been between fifteen
and twenty Japanese war vessels, to
all intents and purposes going
through a series of naval maneuvers,
proved a subject for much interested
discussion, as the Siberia ploughed
her way across the placid Pacific to
Honolulu.
The arrival of the liner at Homo
lulu Tuesday afternoon failed to draw
from her corps of diplomatic officers
any intimation that large fleet Of
Japanese vessels had been passed,
miles to the starboard.
The effect upon between three and
four hundred Japanese and Chinese
streerage passengers aboard the liner
however proved electrical in that they
lined the rail of the vessel and re-
NAMED there, an excited and chatter
ing mass of humanity, until the last
yestige OF the discoloratioR disap-
peared from the horizon.
The report comes here through cor
respondence by the Siberia that three
or four of the larger Japanese battle
ships, dozen cruisers and several
torpedo destroyers had been mobil-
lied at point some hundred miles
distant from Yokohama. Ii was I'M
derstood that the Japanese govern
ment desired to carry on the maneu-
vers over a course that would be-
away from the regular track pursued
by the trans-Pacific steamers.
The belief now exists that in sail
ing from the last port of call at ia
pan. the master of the Siberia may
have set a southerly course.
The story comes that the Pacific
Mail liner Nile in approaching Yoko-
hama some weeks ago. also fell in
with a dozen or more Japanese yes
sells, steaming in northerly direc-
ton and well down on the horizon

The United States army transport
Liscum, for years employed in service
along the Asiatic coast and in the
Philippines, has again met with mis-
fortune. II is a matter of much re-
gret in army circles that the Liscum
yet remains imbedded in the mud of

where the vessel has rested for near
ly a year
Last July the Liscum. taken ), to

After several days of steady pump
ing in order to get all the water out
of the cofferdam built around the
sunken transport Liscum, at Shang-
hal, in order that repairs might be
made SO that the vessel, could be
floated again, the work of the pump
ers has been set at naught. Such
was the news received at Honolulu
with the arrival of the Siberia, il be-
ing stated that the pump broke down
after nearly all the water had been
taken out of the cofferdam, allowing
the Liscum to be submerged again.
However, the men at work get

Beginning with September ist, it is

Each Of the steamers has cargo
capacities of between 5000 and 5000
tons. Coming this way they will bring
general cargo, returning to the Orient
they will carry flour and wheat, lohd-
ed principally on the Columbia river.
Suzuki e. Co. operate flour mills in
Japan. The mills are located at Moi,
and are the largest in the Orient,
turning out about 5000 barrels of
flour per day when running to

The wheat taken from this side of

Early Mariner Hit the High
Spots
The height of the highest waves
has now been fixed at about 80 feet
or slightly under in the SoukAern
ocean, so feet in the Indian, from
% to 20 i'm the Atlantic, and about
19 in the Mediterranean. From this
il would seem that the reports of the
early navigators who ventured
around Cape Horn into the Pacific
or around the Cape OF Good Hope.
declaring that they had met waves
$50 to 200 feet in height, must have
been created largely by their imagina-
tons But the vessels they sailed
In were exceedingly small as COM
pared with the ships of today, so no
wonder the oceans seemed larger and
the waves higher. Navigatorh of to-
