'SWhen he mentioned incidentally that we should have to go seining first for the minnows I let out several feeble yowls that made no more impression on him than a gTasshopper.
 He said seining would be a perfect ly nice, healthy exercise for me and that he would do all the hard part. All had to do was walk along the shore hanging on to one end of the seine, while he struggled through the waves with the other, his hip rubber boots saving him from actual contact with the icy water.
 That seine may have been harm less, well conducted thing ordinarily, but when it saw me coming it arose on its hind legs and proceeded to buck. It pulled me into the water over my shoe tops twice and then when we tried to land it the wind, which was pretty high. simply lifted 1t in the air, twisted it over and showered me with all the minnows, a small turtle and a lot of sticky seaweed stuff.
 'I shrieked for help, but there was no response. When had got all the fish out of my ears and neck I saw that Henry was on the ground all sewed up in the seine. He was fight ing like a giant whale, but I rescued him at last. He said it was all my fault for not handling the net expert ly and that we'd try again for the minnows if I'd use my brains.
 This time I broke my back keeping the pole at my end of the seine push ing along the ground ahead of me, as per orders. We dragged through an acre of water and then Henry round ed in to shore, with low hissings tC

 observe the laws as 1t would put them nearer on a, business basis. with the li-

 Every policeman on the force and

The police have been officially notified to see to it that the laws are enforced on their respective beats, and in order that these orders might be more effec= tive was a reason why there are quar- terly changes in the beats of the. police officers. But there is no sense in po- lice officers making arrests of v1olat- ors of these laws without the sincere cooperation of the police prosecuting department Should the, police com mittee insist that the police report all yioEations and that the prosecuting offlcers cooperate in earnest, there would be no illegal sales of liquor in New London and the saloonmen would not ask for a change in the hours o1 business.

The colored school here will close next
week, and they have arranged to hold a
special exercise in their school building
on Thursday evening, April 30th, when
a program of music and a band will be
there to enliven the occasion. A charge
of 10 cents will be made to raise a small
fund that is needed.
The Levy Court has appointed a COM
mission composed of men residing out
side the school district of Willamsville,
for the purpose of condemning land for
the new school house to be erected upon
Mr.. Anderson has offered to donate lot

for school purposes, but the building
committee can not agree to accept this
and desire to have the old location. The
owner, Mr.. Franklin has refused to sell
or donate, and therefore the Levy Court
has been applied to by the School COM
missioners to appoint the commission to
condemn and take whatever land is re-
quired for the new school building. The
commission appointed consists of Colonel
Theodore Townsend. Heber Scott of
Houston, and Mr.. Harrington. They
have been notified by the Levy Court to
go upon the land, make the condemna-
ton and also make return of their find
ing to the Levy Court, and their act
is final. This will probably be done

However, none of the regiments is up

They would first be sent into camps

they would be permitted to leave the

Memory of Kamehameha It'll Euer Will Be Dear
UnueiIng of Bronze Tablet to Mark Centenary
TUESDAY, NATAL DAY,
WILL BE OBSERVED By
DAUGHTERS OF HAWAII

Al handsome bronze tablet, appro
priately inscribed and set In a block
Of granite, viii be unveiled at the old
Kawaiahao church at O'Clock on the
afternoon or March IL in observance
of the Tooth anniversary of the birth
Of Kauikeaoah. the third of the Ka
mehamehas, known to his people as
"Ka Moi Lokomaikai," or the benefi,
cent king. The plans for this unique
observance were formulated at meet
ing of the Daughters of Hawaii some
months ago and 1t is under their aus
pices that the services will be held
at the church Tuesday.
The daughters have made q fitting
choice in selecting the old kawaiahao
church as the setting for the services.
No more appropriate place could have
been chosen, perhaps, from the fact
that around the historic structure is
woven a myriad Of tales still dear to
the heart of the kamaaina. Since mis-
death, the anniversary of the birth oil
the famous king has been observed
throughout the territory each year,
but this season the Daughters of Ha-
vail, with the assistance of their many
friends, have laid plans for celebra'
ton little more elaborate than has
been the custom in the past.
The committee In charge or the ex.
ercises at the church TUESDAY is com.
posed of Mrs. Eben Low. chairman;
Miss Lucy Peabody, Mrs. Emma Ma
kuina, Mrs. Edgar Henriques, Mrs.
Caroline Robinson, Mrs. F. M. Swanzy,
Mrs. L. A. Coney and Mrs. c. r. Hart.
Queen Liliuokalani and High Chief
ess Elizabeth Kekaaniau Pratt have
consented to unveil the tablet.
The service will be opened with the
singing of hymns. following which will
be the unveiling. One OF the features
of the program will be the chanting
of the ancient Hawaiian prayer of
life, which, because of its great sa-
credness, has never been put into writ
ing, but has been handed Gown by
word Of mouth from generation to
generation. There will be other sa-
cred chants, few of which rarely
are heard, one Of which will be the
genealogy of Kamehameha III. Ste
phen Desha of Hilo has been invited
by the Daughters of Hawaii to be
present at the exercises anc deliver
the address of the OCCASION.
On the first steamer leaving for the
Big Island after the ceremony. the
tablet will be taken to Keauhou. Kona,
and inserted into the historic lava
block known to all kamaainas as the
"Kauikeaouli Stone" which marks the
birthplace Of Kamehameha III.
