Church In Islands
Architects Arrive To Direct Building
OF New Baldwin Memorial Church
At Paia = Gothic Style

C. w. Dickey formerly of Maui but
now one of The leading architects of
the Pacific Coast, arrived on Maui last
Friday to look over the site of the
new Baldwin memorial church which
is to take the place of the present
Paia church. With him came Harold
White, an associate architect, who will
remain on Maui during the building
of the church. Mr.. Dickey will return
to San Francisco next week.
The Baldwin Memorial church
though not to be the largest in the
Islands, will be beyond question one of
the finest as a whole and in detail. It's
probable cost IS not disclosed; il is not
certain, in fact, that the heirs who are
building it know definitely the figure.
They are sparing no expense, and in
tend it to be q permanent structure
that will need little or no repair for
generations.
Every bit of wood employed in the
interior will be oak; the pews, railing,
pulpit and finishing around the pipe.
organ will be of oak. The organ, by
the way, is to be constructed in the
East on a special design prepared by
-hi' i(iNiNtg' itS plpCO VIII DC a uuil
gold in color, and the instrument is to
be as modern as genius can make it.
The edifice will be surfaced with
iichen-covered stone, found in the i'm
mediate vicinity but the rock will be
set against solid wall of reinforced
concrete and steel, which will be the
real building material used. The
church will be fireproof throughout.
1t will seat three hundred and fifty
persons in the main auditorium, hun
dred more in the entrance lobby, and
Sunday school room, and forty-five in
the choir.
The church designed after the mod
ern English village church Gothic
style will set upon terrace bordered
by low stone wall. On three faces of
its low broad tower big clock with
skeleton dials will mark time.

Oldest Japanese In
Hawaii Is HOnOred
Kipahulu Patriarch Receives Emper-
Or's Coronation Cup-TellS Roman
tic Story Of Coming To Islands

AS the oldest Japanese living in
the territory and therefore entitled to
the gift of the Mikados coronation
cup, Sentaro Ishii, aged 80 years, and
for more than half century a resi-
dent of Maui, visited Honolulu last
week and formally took possession
of the royal gift which was awaiting
him at the Japanese consulate. He
lives at Kipahulu.
lshii came to Hawaii something like
sixty years ago He left Toxic in a
Spanish sailing vessel, commanded, he
says, by an American captain, but he
had no idea where he was bound for.
When the vessel reached port he got
shore leave, and he overstayed leave.
He forgot the way back to the ship.
and as he couldn't find anyone to talk
his language was not able to ask the
way and was left behind.
1shiis story which sounds like a
dream of romance is that he had no
idea what part of the world he was in.
He finally found the landing from
which he was supposed to reach his
ship-but the ship was gone He was
stranded in country he did not know
and where there were practically no
persons who knew his language The
port was Lahaina, Maui.
The Japanese, perforce, stayed in
Maui, and soon learned Hawaiian He
wooed and won a Hawaiian maiden.
and now he is the head of a family
which includes many grandchildren
Ishii is glad that sixty years ago he
missed the boat on which as an adven-
turer he left Toxic for parts unknown.
lshii has venerable appearance
His hair is snowy white and he has
long gray beard. The "oldest Japan
ese in Hawaii is apparently a pretty
strong man yet, and seems likely to
outlast many of those who competed
with him for the honors of the cup and
monetary award offered to the Oldest
of all Japanese here.

POLICEMAN THREATENED FOR
ROUGH HANDLING OF FILIPINO

Because police officer George Kau-
wenaoIe of Kahului did not promptly
arrest young Filipino who threw a
bottle onto the street last Sunday
night but instead tried to make the
offender pick up the broken glass, ana
TO that end laid more or less violent
hands upon him, something resem-
bling a riot took place at Kahului, and
later a crowd of so or 60 Filipinos
waited upon Sheriff Crowell with the
demand that the officer be removed
from the force. The sheriff did repri-
mand the policeman for not having ar
rested the Filipino at once, at the
same time explaining to the bottle
breaker that he would have been fined
not less than So had the charge again
st him been proven. The Filipino was
notified and shook hands with Kau-
wenaole, but the gang of his fellow
countrymen outside were not satisfied
threatening him and calling him a
missionary. They have circulated a
petition alleging that Filipinos are
mistreated by the police and calling
upon the citizens of Maui to right the
wrongs they complain of.

Kahului Railroad Gets
Dredging Contract

The Kahului Railroad company, sole
bidder for the work of dredging Ka-
hului Harbor, Maui, was awarded the
contract by the harbor board at a
meeting held in Honolulu Monday.
The railroad company bid thirty cents
a cubic foot for the work.
Some opposition developed to the
scheme for dredging the harbor, when
acting Chairman C.J. Mccarthy OBJ
jected to the idea on the ground that
as the wharf at Kahului is owned by
the railroad company, that concern
should be called upon to pay the cost
of improving the harbor. John Water
house of Alexander & Baldwin appear
ed in behalf of the railroad company
and argued that the wharf has never
paid profit owing to the low rates
imposed by the Territory.
The board. after some argument,
voted to award the contract to the
railroad, Mr.. Mccarthy voting against
the plan.

Would Elect County
Board By Districts
II. A. Baldwin Would Abolish Present
At Large System Maui Opposes
Bringing Mainland Lepers Here

The next legislature will probably
be asked to restore the system of e.
lecting supervisors for the county of
Maui by districts instead of at large,
as is now the law Senator H. A.
Baldwin indicated during the meet
ing of the Maui chamber of commerce
yesterday afternoon that this was his
idea on the matter. During the last
legislature he fathered a bill by
which vacancies occurring on the
board would be filled by special elect
ion instead of by appointment, but
the measure was pocket-vetoed, he
stated, the Governor giving as a rea-
son that the expense of special elect
ions in such instances would be too
great. With supervisors elected by
districts, this objection would be over
come. Mr.. Baldwin thought.
1t was upon Mr.. Baldwin's motion
that a committee of members is to
be appointed to consider matters of
needed legislation against the meet
ing of the next legislature, and the
framing of the two county platforms.
The chamber also voted to ask the
board of supervisors to also appoint a
committee or member to act with the
chambers legislative committee.
Want No Lepers From Mainland
The chamber again went on record
by unanimous vote against the prop
osition of creating on Molokai a nat
ional leprosarium. The chamber took
the matter up a few years ago when
the matter was first proposed, and
there has been absolutely no change
of opinion since then

Unusually pretty was the wedding
of Miss Alona Eugenia Whistler and
Mr.. Thomas Desmond Collins, which
took place at high noon last Saturday

of the young people. The ceremony
was performed by the Rev. r. b.

ing this the bride and groom held a
reception in the Sunday school room,
where they were showered with con-
gratulations and felicitstions. At a
dainty bridal luncheon at the home OF

been the home of the bride during
her residence in Maui) only a few of
the intimate friends of the bride and
groom were present: Mr.. and Mrs. w.
L. West, Rev and Mrs. r Craig Bowd-
ish. Mrs. NJ H. Kimball, Miss Dorothy
Brook, and Miss June Mitchell, be

ed in the plantation ditch last Monday
afternoon, her body being found by
searchers the following day about 5

of Commerce Hears That Maui
Has All The Advantages In This Re-

All that has been said in favor of
Honolulu as a free post applies also
to Kahului, only in vastly greater
measure. This was the opinion voic-
ed at the meeting of the chamber of
commerce yesterday, at which time
the body went unanimously on record
as favoring the larger harbor idea in
stead of the smaller one suggested by
some of the army engineers who
have had to do with the surveys for
the west wing breakwater. The mat
ter came up for general discussion
when several members reported that
Major Raymond, the new army engi-
neer officer who is now on Maui look

might not indicate that he does not

in their opinions as to the need of
the improvement for which Congress
has just appropriated a quarter of q
million dollars
Engineer j. G. Foss, Jr., declared
that with the completion of the break
water in question, Kahului harbor will
lack but a few acres in area of that of
Honolulu harbor, and that it will be
the only real harbor outside OF Homo
lulu Hilo harbor is not to be com
pared with it, he stated. If there is
anything in the free port idea for the
territory, he declared, Kahului offers
more advantages than does any other
port in the group. 1t will not only off
er all the safety and docking facilities
of Honolulu but it will have an abun-
dance of adjacent land for manufact-
uring purposes, which Honolulu does
not have, he contended
