Following a mint successful invasion

tour in charge of the aggregation,
Kim Tong Ho having remained in I'ek
ing to return In the Manchuria.
''It was a great trip, said V. Tin
Chong shortly after the ilorking of the
Siberia," and I cannot begin to tell of
the wonder we aaw and the thousands
of kindnesses shown Us everywhere we
went. Manila is a great baseball town
and nothing wn to.o good for uh. In
( fart from the time we left until we
again set foot in Honolulu it was one
continuous round of pleasure.
"Naturally we are proud of our ae.
eomplishments and I think we have
done much to boost Hawaii ami t
prove to the world that ( hinese chii
jlay base) all. Mani'a seemed to have
an i'ea that we ronld not play hall
and one of the scribes there took oc
casion to roast ns, without even hav
ing seen ns in action. After our first
game he changed his mind and became
one of our strongest rooters.
China Still Green
"China is still green in the way of
. lhsehall, the native! not aa yet show
ing much interest in the pastime, hut
VTery nine we pmyeu 1 eouiil see n
few more at the game than before an. I
I do not doubt hut what China will
soon take to the National game just
do Americans and others.
Everybody was good to ns and vied
with each other in making our trip a
pleasant one. We were successful, as
the local folks well know by this timel
In winning the championship series at
Manila ami nlso at the Far East Ath
letle Association frames and as a testi
monial of our victories we brought
home live magnificent cups from the
Orient. These we cither won on the
diamond or were presented to us by
admirers of the team.
"Of course we are glad to get back
,to Honolulu, there is no place like it.
The team will rest up today and to
morrow tut Thursday mornint; we
will be in harness attain practising for
our games with the Stanford I'nivera
Hy team."

HAWAII PLANTERS Funeni of Late Charles Reed Bishop. 7 JJP Jj ME IM
TO QUID MflUQQfQ Attended By Royalty and High Officials .ILt flJUU1 llu
Hakalau Plantation Company Will
Enter Market With Coast
Others To Follow
if . " i
That it be granted permission to set
up two lrn.mense molasses tanks and
pumps, on ashore And the other on the
Kuhio wharf in Hilo Ilaibor,. was the
subject of a request received and read
nctore the harbor commission vest or
day afternoon from, the Hakalau Plan
tat ion Company.
It li pointed out that inls will faci
litate tne handling of molasses to a
great extent in shipping it from Hawaii
to the coast for commercial puiposus,
where it is to be ased in the making of
alcohol, ryrup and to mix with altafa
for feed, aa it has been mixed with fane
tops here for many years for the same
purpose. , .
After some discussion at the meeting
i tie memnerfl or the harbor board went
on record as favoring the granting of
the m rmlss.oa requested by the Ha
ls i. la i. company, which is to pay to the
government a cent for each barrel of
mo asi that is to pass over the wharf
foi shipment.
Deta.li To Bf Worked Out
"Ther are, however, a number of de
tails to be worked out before the board
'n take final action on the proposi
tion," said Col. Charles J. McCarthy,
ineieoer of the board, 'to The Advertiser
yesterday. " There is 'some question as
tn the rights of the board ns regards
the shore end of the proposition. This
will be taken np with the land com
missioner 's department. To study out
all the details. of the proposed transac
tion the board will hold a special meet
ing Saturday afternoon at half past one
o'clock, when it will go into committee
of the whole on the subject."
"Of eourre, to save all question, the
I oa-d will insist that the pie over the
wharf shall be owned and controlled by
the board," aald Colonel McCarthy.
"It would not do to allow private con-
cc-n to eontrol the pipe line over this
wharf, aa every time the wharf should
be repaired dispute might arise as to
the disposition of the pipe."
Bailroad To Figure
The molasses will be transported
from Hakalau in sikhmbIIv built tank
-ars by tha Hilo Bailroad Company,
whii h will eome into quite a little busi
ness on this aeeonnt. I he molasses
will be pumped into the shore and
wharf tank, and when the shipment to
California, or elsewhere, is to be made, I
it will be puniped into the hold of the
vessel. J
As the success of the experiment 4s
demonstrated it is believed that other
plantations along the line, such as the
llonomu Sugar Company, Hawaii Mill
' ompanv, Waiakea Mill Company, Olaa
Sugar Company and the North Hilo and
Mamakua sugar mills will follow suit.
Plantations Already Doing ' It
Molasses is ,aow being jeiit to the
roast in bulk by the, WaUufcu Sugar
Comiany, Hawaiian' Commercial and
Sugar Company, Maut Agricultural and
Sugar Company and the Honolulu
Plantation Company. The product has
been used on the coast for making- al
coho' and svrup and reeent experiments
in mixing the crude product with alfafa
for stock feed having proved success
ful and profitable and aa a nommercial
enterprise a new avenue of trade is
thus assured.
John A. Hi).-k , president of the Ha
kalau Plantation Company, which, by
the way, is a California corporation, is
very optismistic over the proposition.
"I believe that it will be a good
thing all round and that it will help
business generally," Mr. Buck says.
Joint Ownership
As the proposition now stands the
Hakalau Plantation Will put up at its
own cost the shore and wharf tanks ami
pumps. The eight-inch pipe connect
ing the tanks will be placed over the
wharf by the government and for its
use trie company will pav a royalty of
one cent for each barrel of molasses
shipped from the wharf.

At an early hogr yesterday morning
Pedio Suiguen and Francisco Candido
were brought to the Klice station and
held for investigation. Their names
were entered on the blotter at twenty
minutes past two o'clock.

one of them turned on the officer and
shot him three times, twice in the body
and once iu the neck. Candido will ba

apple cannery at the other side of the
Pali. Th'y offered no resistance to

fied by Policeman Cray of Wahlawa as
the men who were arrested at Wahiawa
I y Mutsugoio. Yesterday morning

Shafter hospital, where the Jauanese
ollicer is lying, and were identified by
him. Matsugoro is reported to be in

Service For the Dead
A quartet, composed of Arthur Wall.
fjrst tenor; Dudley French, of the Ka-
raehameha School for Bovs, second ten
or; George A. Brown, first bass, and
rcsle French, of Punahou Academy,
neeond bass, sang "Still, Still With
Thee," their voices blending harmoni
ously. The singing of this number fcnd
the other later on was both a treat anj
eature of the service.
Following a Scripture reading, Rev.
'I. H. Parker, pastor of Kawaiahao
'hurch, spoke feelingly of the great
nan, whom he had known in life as one
beloved all over Hawaii. Mr. Parker
said that it was twenty-one years since
he had last seen Charles Reed Bishop
n life. Mr. Bishon was then leaving
Hawaii to take np his residence iu Cali
fornia. "He spoke to me feelingly about his
dead wife, the Princess Bernice Pauahi.
ind of the special interest she always
'vad felt during all her life for the the
voung people of her race," said Mr.
Parker, recounting this last conversa
tion with Mr. Bishop.
"If I should say anything about Mr.
bishop, I would talk to the young peo
ple of Hawaii, especially the young
Hawauans, of Mr. Bishop and the prin
cess, his wire, and their great nie
work for the youth of this land."
Mr. Parker said that no man more
upright, straightforward and honest
had he ever known than Mr. Uishop.
"There was nn fuss, no sham, no
double dealing about him. His word
could always be depended upon," said
the speaker. " I'pright, square au'
fearless he vvaH a man in his every
wonl and action. He was always loyal
'o right; he never believed in doing
wrong that right might come of it.
"The royal Hawaiian motto: 'I' a mau
ke ea o ka uiua i ka pono, ' 'the life
of the land is established in righteous
ness,' was no mere sentiment with Mr.
Bishop. He believed in it and iu h:n
very day life carried out its injunction.
Mr. Bishop was human; he was hu
mane, lie was always so'ier and
serious. His austere appearance gave
one the idea that he was en:irely un
approachable. This was not so; be
was most approachable, tn ract.
"I cannot say that he :s dead. He
is ouly away. His spirit ia here. The
work for good thut he did In life will
abide with us. As a philanthropist, 1
have known uone greater than be."
Mr. Parker closed his address with
a prayor, which was most feelingly
given, lev. H. K. Poepoti, pastor of
the Kaumakapili Church, who occupied
the pulpit jointly with Mr. Parker, Lie
pastor, gave a lengthy address in Ha
waiian. He speke of the life work of
the deceased. Of the good that he did
in life and that now endures to the
benefit of the Hawaiian race.
The quartet next sang "Peace, Per
fect Peace," after whbrj He v. Mr.
Parker pronounced a short benedic
tion. With II. II. Williams, undertaker in
charge of the funeral, leading, the pall
bearers filed out of the ciiureli, the
