The rice fields, banana plantations,

esting to the Piince. An unusual
looking tree would cause him to
stietch his arm out of the car like
a child and nsk Us name. The flic
stations, the ciowds of gaping Chinese,
the Hawaiian-Chinese children
nnd the ocean' all caused comments
fiom him.
AT THE AQUARIUM.
At the Aquarium the Piince found
much to delight him. Surrounded by
an admiring ciowd the Prince passed
fiom tank to tank, stopping at each
to comment upon and ndmlre thf beautiful
specimens of ocenn fish. He was
surprised to learn that nil came from
the sea which he had just seen along
the Waikikl imd. Both the Piince
and Wong Kal Kah went Into
raptures over the beautiful blue fish.
The squids which seemed In an angry
mood, took much of his time. Both
the Imperial representatives expre"sed
their surprise that such an exhibit
could have been made here.
At the consulate a great crowd was
In w " ting, nnd the Hawnlian Bnntl
struck up a lively air as Uie Prince
walked up the street to the consular
residence. In the reception room he
was refreshed with tea and then returned
for a short time to rest.
In speaking of eatables the Prince
that Chinese foods as prepared
were too greasy for him and he could
not take water with them. He
preferred European prepared dishes,
and his cook was one who has learn,

RECEPTION AT CONSULATE.
The leceptlon to Piince Pu Lun and

PRINCE WHO MAY BE EMPEROR OF CHINA R C L MEASURES
RECEIVED IN HONOLULU WITH HONORS NEARLY COMPLETED
United States and
Hawaii Greet
Guest.
(From Monday's Dally.)
Royal in title, royal In appearance,
and royal In manner, a Prince of the
Imperial house of China yesterday
stepped upon American soil for the
ilrst time, In Honolulu. Prince Pu Lull,
nephew of His Imperial Highness the
Umperor of China, Imperial Commissioner
to the Louisiana Purchase Exposition,
accompanied by the Vice-commissioner
Wong Kal Kah and
suite, arrived In Honolulu yesterday
morning on the steamer Gaelic and
-were accorded Federal and territorial
lionors during their stay. The attentions
of the United States and Hawaiian
governments weresupplemented by
the homage of the Chinese Consul and
-attaches, representative Chinese societies
and the mass of the Chinese population
of the city.
For the first time in the lives of the
majority of the Chinese here they ware
permitted to gaze without fear or favor
upon the features of a prince of the
royal blood. In China every sarred
law would have been viojated had they
lifted their eyes in profane admit atlon
tho wearer of the three-eyed pea
cock feather and the yellow jacket. Not
since the time when LI Hung Chang
-visited the United States has so much
Interest been aroused concerning China
as by the advent of Prince Pu' Lun.
From early morning until late last
night the Prince was given every
courtesy possible in the name of the
President of the United States, the
Governor of Hawaii and the Empeior
of China. The attentions did not turn
the prince's head, however, for he
seems a level-headed man of 32 years,
and proved himself an Intelligent
of the picturesque In Hawaii.
Above all he Indicated that he has
democratic tastes, far from the autocratic
manner he has been thought to
have. -.-
A drive in a fine victoria behind a
hashing span had not near the Interest
for him of a ride on an electric
car, and above all he dislikes Chinese
prepared dishes, preferring those of
European recipes. His handshake with
all whom he meets is as hearty as It
lie had been accustomed to the habit
all his life. There are none of the
haughty nlrs of the traditional mandarin
about Prince Pu Lun, and during
his stay yesterday in Honolulu ho
-proved himself to be Indeed a prlnre.
THE DAY'S ITINERARY.
The progiam yesteiday was a formal
greeting to him aboard the Gaelic by
the Secretary of the Territory, a military
escort to the Alexander Young
Hotel where he had engaged a suite of
looms on the parlor iloor, an official
call from the Governor of Hawaii, a
visit to the Chinese United Society
rooms, a formal call on Governor Car
ter at the latter's residence, luncheon
at the Young Hotel, a ride In an electric
car over the sjstem of the Rapid
Transit railroad, an inspection of the
'Aquarium at Wniklkl, an afternoon
luncheon at the Chinese consulate and
a reception tendered to His Highness
last evening nt the Chinese Consulate.
It was a busy day for the Prince and
suite, but they did not seem to weory
of the attentions paid them, nnd he
expressed his great delight in being
able to be on American soil.
MET BY TROOPS.
At daylight the Gaelic made preparations
to enter the harbor. At the same
time a Bteady stream of Chinese and
other nationalities made its way to the
Hackfeld wharf. By the time the vessel
swung nlongside the whaif one of
the largest crowds ever congregated
on a Honolulu wharf was maB.sod beneath
tho sheds. Diawn up In Imposing
nrray were two companies of thq
United States Artllleiy in command
of Lieut. Hniry Nowtnn, U. S. A., Lieut.
DavlH, X'. 8. A., and LJout. llehr, U. S.

New Bills Menace Brevity House Republicans
Wrest County Government Honors
From Home Rulers.
Governor Carter will send to the legislature today his final recommendation
for the session. This is an act providing' for unpaid
bills, and if it goes through without trouble the session may be
closed on Saturday. There is just time for the bill to pass both
houses this week. The only difficulty now in the way of an early
adjournment is the changes made by the Senate in the salary bill.
Members of the House announced at the time of tho passage of the
salary bill on three consecutive readings, that they were doing it
only because of the promise that the Senate would do likewise. If
the changes made arc permitted to stand, some of the House members
say they will never agree to the bill in conference. They claim
the right to pass upon the bill as well as the Senate, and having
waived their privileges, say the Senate should not now change the
bill.
The fit st two acts of the session became laws yesterday. These
weie Acts No. i and No. 2 which provide S;,ooo for the expenses of
the Senate and double the amount for the House. Both bills were
signed by Governor Carter yesterday.
In the House yesteiday the Republican majority voted down
Kupihea's joint resolution for a county law commission and then
straightway adopted one of its own of like tenor. The current expenses
bill passed second reading, and the garbage and assessor
bills were finished up in the House and will go to the Senate today.
