Ceremony in Connection With Laying of Corner
Stone for Kaimuki School Was a
Revival of the Old Days.
(From Saturday's Advertiser.)
Hawaii's former Queen wielded a
silver trowel yesterday afternoon in the
ceremony of laying tho Liliuoknlani
school's cornerstone at Kaimuki. Her
hands trembled a bit at tho unaccustomed
employment, but she performed
tho task quito in keeping with tho best
traditions of cornerstone laying, adding
through her personago an unusual atmosphere
of royalty and courtliness to
the e,ent.
Tho ceremony on the grounds of the
magnificent new tchool building bearing
the Queen's name was notable not
for the celebration of tho occasion
alone. It was the first
public meeting of flormor Queen
and former President Sanford
U. Dole of the Hawaiian Republic.
The Queen was among tho first arrivals
on the platform. As sho left her
motor car and was cbcorted to tho
grounds the crowd of some three or four
uunurcu no nnu assemuica rose quito
as though it were in the days of tho
old monarchy and remained standing
until the Queen was seated in a com
fortable chair placed for her out of
the glaring sunlight. Again, when she
rose to lo iicr part in tiie stono laying, i
and when sho was escorted back to her
car, wus the courtly procedure witnessed.
A Royal Levoe.
Among the many specially invited
guests who mounted tho platform to
pay their respects to the Queen came
Judge Dole whose inauguration as President
of tho Hawaiian Itopublic formally
ended the reign of Queen
and made her a monarch without
a throne.
"Liliuokalani is still tho Queen,"
explained someone to a stranger in the J
crown; as it was easy xor tno visitor to
perceive,
Judge Dole bowed formally and !
grasped the Queen's hand. A low
ltirmal words were spoken and the
Queen's faint smile deepened for a moment.
Again, at the informal reception
that followed the ceremonies, he paid
his respects to the woman whoso tbrono
ho assisted in overtoppling.
The program was of tho usual sort.
There wob music by the Hawaiian bandi
which played "Aloha Oo" nnd "Ha
waii I'onoi" with unusual fervor in
the presence of the Queen; an invocation
offered by ltev. F. J. Williams, an
address by Judge Dole and somo closing
remarks by Hon, Ed Towse,
Tribute to tho Queen.
Judge Dole paid n generous tribute
to the Queen in of his ad
dress. "It is a happy and appropriate I
feature of this occasion," said ho,
"that tho former Queen of Hawaii,
wiiusc uuinc ia yiveu vu hid bcuuui iirni growth in Hawaii, and mentioned a

annals, and will bo treasured as ono of
its choicest traditions. Queen
has been closely in touch with
tho past eventful history of thoso Islands,
nnd is today a willing and public-spirited
participator in the lifo -of
Hawaii's new status.
"With the meeting of races in Hawaii
the coming here of tho representatives
of divergent nations, in business
enterprises, tho social life of the
place, in education, in politics with
tho American policy of making Oahu
a great strategic outpost of the United
States involving extensive fortifications
and nn army of defenders and
.all tho things that go with such occupation,
nnd with the annually increasing
number of -visitors to our shores, it
is clear that we are at the beginning
of n new epoch. With tho passing of
Hawaiian independence, tho curtain
was rung down on a romantic and picturesque
past, rich with heroic and
pathetic memories. Tho pressing conditions
of tho present outlino a future
full of difficulty nnd yet full of opportunity.
Communication with all tho
world brings us the good nnd the bad,

surely tho secondary object must

which one deals with his environment,
in other words tho ability to accomplish
to do things to mako a living
to achieve success in any particular direction.
A Good Beginning.
"Manual training is a difficult matter
perhaps for a day school to handle:
yet a beginning has been mado in tho
public schools of Hawaii, which is meri
torious, especially considering tho
rather inadequnto provision for Buck
instruction. I look hopefully forward
to a timo when ovory plan for n new
school lionso hero shall ineludo somewhere
in tho basement perhaps, or tho
attic, or anywhere rooms for instruction
in thoso things whero the hand

and largely to it tho commodious plan
and fino proportions of tho building.

Good Citizenship,
"Tho stato may not teach the dogmas
of religion, but tho things that go
to tho formation of good citizenship
she must inculeato in her schools. Virtue,
industry, honor, patriotism theso
foundation elements of citizenship, no
government can afford to neglect on
tho plea that parents and private
schools look after them. For tho honor
nnd strength of the state it is essontial
that every school shall bo a school of
patriotism, nnd that tho school spirit
shall bo a training influonco for that
the greater enthusiasm which moans
loyalty to one's country and fair nlav
to all tho world."
Judge Bole related in brief tho
tory of educational institutions and
Will Use It Well.
"The pooplo of this district." said
,Mr. Towso in his closing remarks, "pro
pose to uso tnis piece or public property.
Wo proposo to make it our
neighborhood center to tho ends that
we may becomo better acquainted, that
recreation mny bo provided, that
sentiment -may bo focused upon
community interest and that mature
public opinion and popular government
may becomo rnoro effective. And wo
shall endeavor to show our lo'ynlty to
this Bchool and all its significant purposes.
"Tho greatest thing under our flag
is tho public school. It is our hoivlest
investment and our chief pride. Education
is our biggest industry and tho
freo school our moBt cherished institution.
Why! Becauso popular education
is tho genius of the American Commonwealth,
Becauso democracy yearns for
liberal enlightenment. Because knowledge
spells liberty, freedom and cquaU
ty. Becauso knowledge stimulates
tlio imagination and creates courage.
Because tho ability to study freshens
and strengthens thought. Because fc'o
spirit of tho public school is tho spirit
of helpfulness and cooperation.
Tno seed sown in the public school
of our land has had its fruition in use
ful lives and tho government of tho
united States is cflicicnt and success
ful becauso tho public school is
efficient nnd successful. AH walks
of life in our social order aro
influenced nnd carried forward by
tho work of tho public school. This
dny it is opening tho gateways of op
portunity to 20,000,000 of tho youth of
our land.
"Let us rcjoico then that tho stntoj
justifying, in tho establishment of this
school, our own judgment of tho needs
nnd tho rights of tho homo, has provided
a suitable, structure pledged to

mankind. Lot us rojoico that hope and

Let ns rejoice that especially in Hawaii
iici tho public school is tho hostage,
and tho vehicle of racial understanding,
of racial harmony and finally, of racial
union.
thnt from this
center there shall radlnto a force that
will strengthen nnd perpetuate all our
desires and all our prayers for a future
shaped and fashioned by that supremo
intelligence which finds its highest expression
in friendliness and in toleration."
Tho Cornerstone.
Tho ceremony of Inying tho cornerstone
was introduced by Mr. Towso in
a felicitous speech accompanying tho
presentation to tho Queen of tho silver
trowel provided for tho occasion.
Following the program tho Queen consented
to sit bofore tho blinking shutter
of Bonine's moving picturo machine,
and throughout tho afternoon was tho
cynosure of many a clicking kodak.
Most of tho nudienco remained to
greet tho Queen nfter the ceremony, nnd
sho was almost 'tho last to go. Hor

QUESTION?
LAWYERS ARGUED LONG BUT,
ANYHOW, THE WITNESS
COULDN'T ANSWER.
fFrom Saturday's AdrortlsorO '
"I" don't remember.'
This answer given yestordny in Judgo
Robinson's court to a quostion put y
Attorney F. K. Thompson to Edward
Mnddon, mnnngor of Kulniau plantation,
in tho enso Hornor versus Honor,
sot tho court, lawyers, witness and contestants
into convulsions of laughter
nnd caused a tomporary susponsion of
tho hearing of tho case for tho question
to which tho answer quoted was
given had boon argued over very
strenuously for nearly half nn hour.
During tho discussion tho lawyers
passed various doubtful complirotnto
to ono nnothcr, aud all appeared to
enjoy it. Thompson asked,, or tried to
nsk, tho witness, as to what conversations
ho had with Albert Hornor concerning
tho purchaso of Ookala by T.
II. Davies & Co., and also 'concerning
improvements to bo mndo in tho mil).
Judgo Stnnloy objected and Withing
ton objected. Wlthington sarcastically
romarkod, that tho quostion as framed
was unintelligible nnd suggostod that
counsel might frame his interrogatories
so thnt at least tho lawyers might understand
them.
"Everybody in tho court understands
tho question oxoopt Mr. Withington,"
said Thompson chcorfully. Withington
nnd Stnnloy returned to tho attack and
brought Wildor into thoaargumont, and
Wlldor accused Stauloy of trying to ha
judge, counsel nnd witness nil in one.
After a lot of similar ploasantry it appeared
that Withington, if ho didn't
understand tho question, was by that
timo in a majority. Tlio -witness
wanted it road, again. This was done,
nnd tho battlo was ronowod ovor its
terms.
Judgo Robinson finally framed a
question involving tho point at issno
and put it to tho witness. Whon tho
witness simply said ho didn 't romomber,
it nearly broke up tho trial.
Madden was cnllod to tho stand out
of order, interrupting tho'

wanted to loavo for his homo on Ha

shipments from Kukninu, nnd had to do
with ordors sont by local ngoncios for
shipments of sugar from Kukaiau.
Madden told how ho had shipped tho
sugar, and tho ordors sent from Honolulu,
by the sugar fnctors or ngonts,
aro to bo introduced lator.
Davies' testimony continued to deal
with tho relations of his firm and tho
Kukaiau interests. Under cross-examination
by Thompson ho further doniod
tliat tho firm had tried to buy tho
norucr interests. Ho did not
discussions which Thompson asked
about. Ho said ho had been told of
tho Swnnzy letter opening negotiations
to buy Kuknlau, and thought ho had

matter was of so llttlo importance that
ho didn't rcmombcr whethor ho had
