Death Takes
Young Teacher
After Three Weeks Illness, Miss
Amy Swain, Greatly Beloved By
Her Associates, Passes Away

Far from the home of her parents,
and her dearest relatives and friends,
with the exception of one or two
friends or her school days. Miss Amy
Swain, the young Kahului kinder
garten teacher and community work
er, was called to the Great Beyond on
tuesday of this week, almost at the
very beginning of her life-work Al
though far from her home, tender,
sympathetic, new-made friends, and
those of her school days, with all the
skill of three physicians, tried to the
very last to make her final days as
bright and devoid of pain as possible,
and always with the deep hope that
her life might be spared for the work
for which she was so eminently fitted.
She came to Maui in September,
after graduating from the Wheelock
Kindergarten Training School in Bos-
ton, where she was given the highest
recommendation by Miss Wheelocl1
Another Wheelock graduate, who
knew her when she was taking the
| kindergarten work, says of Miss
Swain that she was very popular at
school, on account of her great good
sense and general adaptibility to any
\ situation. She held several honor
/ Offices in the school and was member
of the student council. Miss Swain
held the highest ideals, was unselfsh
| in her work, of great fidelity, known
TO always keep her word, and was
quiet and unassuming," says this
friend of the unfortunate young
woman.
A mass of flowers consisting of roses
| ferns, daisies, orchids, and lilies, a
silent tribute of the many friends Miss
| Swain had made on Maui during her
short residence, surrounded her casket
and the altar of the Kahului church.
when a simple funeral service was
said over her remains on last We'd
nesday afternoon. Rev. Dodge and
Rev. Pleasant conducted the funeral
service, Rev. Pleasant telling how Miss
Swain had endeared herself to his
family, with whom she had been liv-
ing.
The pallbearers were Captain Park
eT J. S. B. Mckenzie, D. c. Lindsay,
Frank LuflIin, D. w. Townsend, l.. r.
Mathews, Richard Lillico, F. ]. John
son and F. T. Bostwick
Miss Swain was i'll three weeks.
First, with meningitis for two weeks,
and then erysipelas set in, of which
she died. She was unconscious the last
week.
Rev. Pleasant accompanied the body
to Honolulu, from where it will be sent
to the home of her father, o. B. Swain,
in Clinton, Conn.

PenhallOw Back
From Coast Trip
Plantation Man Is accompanied By
California Newspaper Man Who
Is Son In Law Of c. B. Wells

Some one has been knocking the
Great Northern. She is as steady as
big hotel" declares H. B. Penhallow,
manager of the Wailuku plantation
who was q returning passenger on
that vessel from the mainland, where
he has been for the last six weeks on
a pleasure trip. Penhallow made this
remark, as for some unknown rea-
son, it had been repeatedly stated on
Maui that the Great Northern was not
comfortable vessel upon which to
travel.
G. B. Fowler, the business manager
Of the San Francisco Chron-
icle, accompanied Penhallow back to
the islands and was his guest in Wal
luku for several days, during which
time the California newspaper man
had an opportunity to see how great
plantation is conducted. Fowler is
the son-in-law of G. B. Wells, former
ly manager of the Wailuku plantation
Penhallow was in Los Angeles on
election night the night before the
Great Northern sailed for the islands.
He said he went to the Burbank
theater to watch the election returns.
1t amused him that when presidential
returns were given there would be
but slight applause, but as soon as the
returns from some wet" county were
flashed on the screen there would be
a great uproar.
Penhallow says he paid a visit to
Mexico, and then adds, laughingly.
But l didn't so very far in"

Expect Coke To Be
Named On Bench

The term of James L. COKE as SEN
ator from the third senatorial district
on Oahu expired November and he is
now eligible for the appointment to
the circuit court to fill the vacancy
caused by the resignation of Judge
Stuart. Coke's friends are hoping to
hear soon that he has received the
appointment for which it is generally
understood that he is slated, says the
Advertiser.
1t was the general belief some time
ago that Coke would be appointed TO
the bench, and he resigned his senator
ship with that in view. But the law
stepped in and interfered, it being
held that, Notwithstanding his resigna-
tion, he was ineligible for a federal
position until the expiration of the
term for which he was elected senator
Coke left Friday on the Mauna Loa
for a trip to Maui. 1t is possible that
shortly after his return he may re-
ceive word of his appointment, as,
now that the dust of the presidential
election has, to some extent cleared
away, the Nations chief executive will
be able to settle down to routine work.
such as signing commissions and writ
ing notes.
Coke was on Maui on legal business
last week where he met a number of
the local Democrats. He went back to
Honolulu TO meet Senator Phelan.

Puunene Chemist
Takes A Bride

A quiet wedding with only relatives
and very few intimate friends pres
ent was solemnized a week ago We'd
nesday in Honolulu at the home of
Mrs. Agnes Judd on Wyllie Street,
when Miss Helen Kitchen of st. Paul,
Minnesota, became the bride of James
Hamilton Pratt of Puunene. The
house was prettily decorated with
quantities of green and masses of
white flowers, many of the latter
grouped into wedding bells The cere-
mony was performed by the Reverend

McCue, daintily gowned in pink, was

a fragrant bouquet of white sweet
pease and lacey fern The groom's
mother, Mr. r. ]. Pratt of California,
came in on the Matsonia to be present
at the marriage of her only son on
Wednesday. The bride has lived on

some time. After a honeymoon of

RARE ANIMAL COLLECTION FOR
FAIR MENAGERIE IS GROWING
Cameron Successful In Getting Attractions For Children And
Now Has Daisy, A Monkey And Three Water
Buffalo Still Looking For Talking Birds

F. 3. Cameron. the Maui County
manager is going to be the most pop
ular man on Maui with the "liddies"
Mexico, and then adds, laughingly,
on November 80, December l and 2
if he keeps on adding to the fair
menagerie, as he has during the past
week.
Not content with acquisition of
Daisy the Honolulu baby elephant,
he started out this week TO see if he
could not find something that would
serve to interest the hundreds of
children just as greatly, for he realiz-
ed that all of them, especially on
childrens day, would not be able to
see and ride Daisy at the same time.
Cameron felt that he had somewhat
succeeded when he heard of three
water buffaloes on a rice plantation
away up one of the Waihei valleys.
The fair manager started for the rice
plantation and without a great deal
of trouble convinced the Chinese
proprietor that he owed it to the youth
of Maui to have those buffaloes on
exhibition at the fair.
Now in parts of the islands water
buffaloes are a common sight, but in
others they are as rare as are
elephants. Such is the case in most
parts of Maui, so Daisy is going to have
competition to hold first place in the
affections Of the younger visitors at
the fair. And especially is this so as

one of the three buffaloes is keilli,
a native daughter of Maui. and as a
woman writer would say, in spite of
its bulk, 'it is just too cunning for
anything"
Cameron says: do you know, new
er saw a water buffalo before, and
that keil1i got my eyes and | watched
its antics for half an hour" Now any
one, who knows just how busy the
fair manager is these days, will ap-
preciate that the baby buffalo must be
worth watching, if he spent thirty
minutes doing so.
The securing of the buffalo whetted
Cameron's appetite and he started on
a search for more strange and anus
ing animals to interest the children. He
succeeded, for he remembered that
Miss Irene Aitlen has a very old and
friendly monkey, which delights in cut
ting didoes for children. When Ca
meron explained his mission to Miss
Aitken, he was Immediately told that
the monkey would enter the fair com
petition for the children's attention at
the county fair, with Daisy and the
water buffalo.
Cameron is not yet content and just
at present he is out sleuthing to find
flock of parrots which will say "hellC
kids" in all the languages of the is
lands So\l' you have a rare bird OF
animal, am want to add to the
youngsters fun, make it a part of the
fair menagerie.

TO EXHIBIT PAPER
OVER 100 YEARS OLD

One of the very rare curios
which will be exhibited at the
Maui County Fair will be a
newspaper which was published
in the latter part of 1893, which
gives an account of the life and
death of President George
Washington. Poems and obitu-
AIRY facts, with heavy mourning
border, are on the front page of
the publication, and in spite of
the fact that the paper is nearly
century and a quarter old, it is
in a good state OF preservation
and can be read without diff
ficulty. The paper is the prop
erty of Mrs. Loveland, the moth
er of Mrs. d. c. Lindsay, and
has been treasured in her family
through all the years of the past
century.

Japanese would take part in the
parade and that some of the entries
would be unusually unique, and others
very beautiful.
