NAMES IN HAWAII
XO DISTI1CTION AS TO E. II CALL

A Remarkable Tax Roll Kstreme
Conventloniillt Ohtnlna in the
Churches of the Iaitcst Brand
of American Citizens.
From tha "ew iork Press
S. W. fcmthe, a resident of Hawaii, who
formcrl lived in Chenango count, tells
somo Interesting fans regarding Uncle
Sam's new acquisition, showing life as it
exists among the lower cla-sse. Mr. Smthe
lived in Hawaii for fifteen ears and was
a member of President Dole s first as.-em-blv.
He was al-o connected with the Ha
waiian Star, and his intimate acquaintance
vith tho countr and its people makes his
views of more than usual interest at the
present time.
"From superstition or caprice." said Sir.
Stnthe, "the Hawaii ins give to the lower
animals the n lines of men and gods. Men
and gods, on the other hand, receive names
as quaint anil inappropriate as our own
Knglish names are seen to bo if we stud
them The si me names are bestowed on
males and females. A man living in B
street. Honolulu, is called the Prett W Om
an (Wahino Malki): a male infant was
christened recently Mrs. Tompkins, one lit
tle girl is n imed Stmon, anil another The
Man, Susan (Kukena) Is a bo, so are
I'oliv Ann. Jane Peter and Henrv Ann A
prett little maid has been named by her
fond parents tht Pig Sty (Hale Pau). while
a relative hints at tho diet of the coming
man In calling a boy the Rat Kater (Kamea
Ol Oie)
"An old -ervant of tho family of Dr.
Wight at Kohala, anxious to express her
devotion to her master, called htr bab
daughter The Doctor, and as in all other
cases this was the onl appellation she
had. Bv w.i of compliment to some of
the earlv phsicians children were named
after drugs, as Joseph Squills. Miss Rhu
bard and the Do-e of Medicine.
"While rames of a disgusting and uncom
plimentarv nature are borne with apparent
indifference, others occur of a pleasant,
grateful meaning, as Tho Arch of Heaven
(Ka Pia Lani). The River of Twilight. (K.i
Wai Liula), and The Delicate Wreath (Ka
Lei ma ki LIlj.
A startling Tax Roll.
"The following list of names is on the
taxpjers' list of Honolulu:
"Mr. Scissors, The Thief, The Wandering
Ghost. The Fool, The Man Who Washes
His Dimples, Mrs Ovster. The Tired Lizard,
The Husband of Kaniea (a male deit).
The Great Kettle The First Nose. The At

. ' I remember an hour passeel In the native
church at Walalua. a great square building,
not even possessing a chimne to relieve
its barnlike outline, awkward, hvdra-head-ed
cactuses sprawling in the hot sand at
the doorway, an immediate velplng of wolf
ish curs from neighboring huts as each
attendant on the services passed along the
road to church. The Chinaman who has a
store near the church owned a clock which
formerlv controlled the hour of service,
but since its wheels have rusted and the
timepiece delights to range two or three
hours aheid of time.
" The pastor's dinner bell, heard from the
other end of the village, served as a
church bell, which Is sounded about an
hour before the service. The sexton pulls
merril at the rope in the doorwav of the
church until mine of the worshipers ap
proach. Pausing awhile for conversation,
he then rings more slowlv and with a
gradual waning effort until all "ounds
cease and the congregation is assembled
Kverthingr Is Conentlonnl.
"The blank plastered walls have a large
capacit, for the congregation at times
numbers 2.C0O Unlike the distribution of
an audience in the great church at Hono
lulu wj-Te the old, the joung, the mar
ried men, the unm irried men, the old
women, the oung marrieel women and the
voung unmarried women, together with
further subdivision as to per-ons con
firmed and unconfirmed, have special parts
of the church assigned to them, no sin h
a distinction is made at Wailua. A tnmily
the father, mother and four children is
gathered in one pew. As the service
progresses the children must be amused,
and. producing a loaf of bread, the moth
er cuts three slices from the loaf, while
sh" nur-es the bab and adds these to the
spiritual food administered from the pul
pit. Smoked as The) Listened.
"Directl before the preacher two old
women were seited sldewas, one con
fronting the either, their arms Iirml
clasping their knees ind each smoking a
pipe, as they smoKed the nodded and
awned. Throughout the building loud
snores were occasionally heard. Two little
bo s behind the preacher's desk skirmish
ed with umbrellas One of the bovs was
driven to the wall- the father of the de
feateil one went from the liody of the
church nnd roughly led away the boy who
discomfited his child Young men and
oung women walked down the aisle or
stepped over the backs of seats to get
water, often returning with a calabash for
a friend In pite of these interruptions
the main portion of the assemblage appear
ed to be undisturbed
"An old woman was seized with a head
ache and sign iled to a friend to come over
and kntad her muscles, native fashion,
which was dene while her husband sn he
sido her, never taking his tes from the
preacher.
"If a native woman sings well she is not
placed In the choir 'like a ptacoek.' a na
tive preacher rem irked to me Women ai
wavs get squaking voices if the are
praised, like other birds
' Unfortunatcl the few good voices in the
audience have no support and the music I
frightful. Pausing in his part (he is. by
the way, the onl tenor voice In the choir),
a oung man takes from his pocket a small
mirror ai d a tomb: he carefull arranges
his tie and combs his hair in full view of
the audience. After the sermon the min
ister descends from the pulpit and himself
passes hi cap for contributions And woe
to the delinquent who endeavors to shirk
this part of the programme."

one of th mo-t valuibic presents that
could be given to any one in this time of
war, a Smtiigo countrvman gave the
writer two -eeds of the e iaj ilios to guard
himself against the baneful iiitiuenee of the
neeiue-.
On the morning of Julv 1. when the bom
bardment of Santiago b the American
arm bttjan the writer was seated at the.
door of a house in LI I'ozo, light behind
the batter that was -helling tht fort of
Sun Juan The whole cit of Santiago was
there before our ees and the Sp iniards
eliil not sretm to heed the eleadiv lire of our
guns Twent -seven shells had already been
fired at them without an answer from the
enein. Just then a Cuban mounted upon
a mule appeared from behind tht bushes
upon the scene of action Borne fifty Cu
bans were around the hou-e, and as soon
as their countr man was seen one of them
exclaimed
'There is a neque, gentlemen; we are
lost' '
These words were scarcel uttered before
the caajabos seeds were being Industri
ous! rubbed bv man Cuban fingers.
The lir-t Spanish -hell from the battery
of San Juan came whittling over our heads
and struck the roof of the house Three
Cubans fell wounded aruuiul us Then si
more shells fell at the door and on the
roof and the plateau In front of the house,
Infi'cting a loss of thirteen Cubans nnd
fifteen American0 While our batterv was
answering the Spanish lire, and It was not
-ilenceii for nearl an hour, the house was
evacuattd by the non-combatnnts who had
occupieil it There was a hue run to the
woods of newspaper reporters and ho-pital
ittcndants The writer was thrown fiat on
the ground and trampled on bv the fugi
tives, while Spanish shells were bursting
near him It was a scene to laugh at now.
but there could be nothing more serious
then. It was a specially solemn moment for
the writer, for he fell behind a mule that
was tied to a tree at tire right side of the
house and began kicking viciously at the
terrified crowd that had di-turbed him.
When the tremendous fight was over the
writer made a thorough investigation of the
whole -urroundings The mule was peace
full eating grass around the tree abso
luteh unhurt. Over thirtv Spanish shells
had fnlltn around him This is a wonder
Indeed," exclaimed someone. A negro, who
understood the cause of our astonishment
and seemed to be the owner of'the mule,
showed us with a triumphant air two seeds
of caajabos tied at the tail of this animal
Another Incident in which a neque plaed
a role happened tw6 davs ago at a camp
liftv vards from the ho-pltal of the Tirst
division and some hundred ards from Gen
eral Shafter's headquarter-. After a ride
of thirteen miles on hor-eback, under a
burning sun the writer stopped there and
was courttouslv invited to dinner bv a
friend While he was seated on the ground
enjoing his meal the negro servant camo
trembling forward and said
"General we are going to be killed If we
don t move from here "
"Whj ?" we all asked at once.
"Because Don Miguel, the neque, is en
camped near us, on the other side of the
hospital."
V e laughed at the news, to the great dis
comfiture of the negro, and after our meal
we began a comfort tble siesta in the ham

general shout of "Spanish sharpshooters

tent, was rubbing his caHjabos seeds.
In less than a minute over MO -hots were
sent among the cocoanut trees, but as no

CHINA'S SAD RULER
VISIT TO THE KMPCROH OF TUB
I'l.OWERV KINGDOM.
Appenra Weary of the "World De
scription of an Audience Grant
ed to the PoreiRU Am
bassadors. From the London Globe
A Berlin journal publi-hes the following
account from the pen of a well known.Ger
man traveler of an audience granted by the
emperor of China to the foreign ambassa
dors at Peking The writer was the only
i on-diplomatic pe rson present.
Headed b the highe-t dignitarie- of the
Celestial empire, our procession moved on
between rows of privv chancellors of the
first cla-r. bod guarels armed with bows
and arrows, civic authorities holding valu
able old swords under their arms, and un
armed soldiers of the palace. We passed
by the black tents with the little, peeping
windows, in which the ambassadors fore
gathertsl in former ears before they weru
received by the emperor.
Silently and pompously we pa-sed over
the dark carpet woven out of black camel's
hair and ascended some steps leading to
the widely opened folding doors of a build
ing, from the front wail of which the out
s'de. had peeled off, letving the casing and
timbers exposed to view, molely and worm
eaten Thus we reached tho autlience
chamber and were within three pices of
the "son of heavea," Kouang Sou, the
"ruler of the middle kingdom." He was
seated upon a raiseel platform, approached
bv hv steps and three stangwav-, while
from the right and left two narrow paths
also gave acces- to the dais. The latter
and the balustrade were covered with retl
eloth and trimmed with vellow. On either
side of the emperor stood one of the Man
churlan princes, upright, motionless, and
witli a stonv stare, as though he were
keeping watch over a bier.
Exposes Onlj His Head.
In this hall, the 'hall of the flowers of
literature," the "son of heaven" sat before
a table on the platform, so that onl the
tipper portion of his body was visible.
Ujior the table lay a staff, probably of
jasper, the "scepter of good fortune. ' A
small squ ire box, seemingly of antique
cloisonne work, was said to contain the im
perial -eal There were alto upon the
table the plate for preparing Chinese ink,
a tra for unusetl writing brushes, a rack
for holding these brushes when In use. a
box. of Indian ink, and a vase of water
for making the writing fluid. All these ar
ticles were made out of precious stones of
the second rank, such as jasper, topaz,
turquoise and the like. It seemed as if
the emperor preferreil to have these u-e-ful
articles before him as the Insignia of
power, in-tead of the usual sword, scepter
and orb
His majesty looks older than he really
is. With sunken head and ellow face,
he looked shly at the assembled diplo
mats, and his heavy ees were lit up for
the occasion by opium or morphin. A sor
rowful, wear" and rather childish smile
plaed about his mouth. When his lips
are parteel his long. Irregular, yellow teeth
appear, and there are great hollows -In
either cheek. His face is nor entirely
wanting In svmpathy, but rather betokens
Indifference, and from Its features nothing
of interest can be read. In fact, the em
peror Impressed me as being self-restrained
cold, apathetic, wanting in ca
pacit, worn out and as though half dead.
Makes a rathetic Picture.
I felt that whatever passed before his
ees had not the slightest interest for him;
ami that it mattered not in the leat to him
whether he understood the meaning of the
ceremonv. 1 mav , indeeel, be wrong In my
judgment, and it ma be that the emperor
of China it a highly intelligent monarch,
educated, well read, a keen student and
anxious for the welfare of his people. I
ma lie cntirel wrong, but I cannot be
lieve that I am. A man who wear- a look
as If lire was a burden to him must surely
be on the downward grade. I must be bold
enough to renrtduce the son of heaven"
as I saw him and as he struck me and not
as others would wish me to picture him.
For a quarter of an hour I stooii onlv
three paces from the emnercr of the Celes
tial empire, and I watched him narrow 1

EXCITING BATHING IN HAWAII.
Riding; the Surf, Whether on n Board
or in a Canoe. Is Exhllarntlne
Pastime.
From the San Francisco CThroslcIe.
To experience the true poetry of motion
one must try surf riding. There is some
thing about going thirty miles an hour on
the trest of a white-foamed breaker, ever
yawnirg and surging to overwhelm 0u
and give ou a battle for your life, but
tver, by the impotent e ot its own wrath.
tirring ou on in exhilaration and safety
that makes tho blood tingle and raises the
mere pleasure of p.isitil existence! to the
nlane of intellectual ccstas. There is all
in it that there is in coasting or tobog
ganing or shooting the chutes and a great
deal more besides1, something so t-ubtle
that it tan onl be felt, not described, anil
ct it i- to rtal, eo powerful, so embrac
ing that it takes hold of ven the most un
poetlcal nature, facinates and enthralls
It.
The n itlve Hawaiian, in all his con
quests in an environment which did not
offer many material aids to advancement,
proved his possession of high intellectual
qualities and capacity for attainment in no
more conclusive manner than when he
read In the rolling -erf this natures secret
of motive power. Since the waters were
gathered together and called sea the surf
has been rolling in in long breakTs upon
ever shore the ocean laves. But it was the
Hawaiian alone of all the son- of earth
and sea who discovered Its -ubtle power
and the subtle power to control and utilize
it Tho art of surf riding is indigenojs to
the Hawaiian i-Iandt. To see a frail out
rigger tanoe. itself a monument te the
patience and skill whieh hollowed and
shaped it with rude tools from the trunk
of a koa tree, glide with almost the swift
ness and grace of an eaglo in flight liefore
a vvhlte-trested breaker, without tremor or
a jir from the argr waters behind it. is
.i -Uht worth a long journey to see. To be
In the canoe, to txperienee tht annihilation
of time and space, to be alwas about to
be overwhelmed, but nlvvas escaping, is
a sensation worth a life's ambition to feel.
But ju-t a little more vivid, just a little
more exhilarating. Just a little more in-ten-e
than -arf-tanoe riding Is surf-board
riding. Width of the two pastimes i the
earlitr in conception and the older in prac
tice it i- impossible to sav. Tradition i
silent on the subjett. and both antedate
histor. There Is reason to believe that the
surf board, being the -Impler implement,
came before the canoe. However that nav
be. the conditions which admit or -urf-boat
riding are rarer man those of -urf
canoeing, and though the two have been
krown and dee-enbed -inco Captain Cook
discovered these islands, it is onlv- within
the last few week that actual pictares of
surf-board riding bv instantaneous photog
raphy, showing It as It Is and correcting
erroneous impressions regarding It. as the
same means torrected the traditional im
pressions of the horses movements' la run
ning, have been procured.
The conditions of surf-boat ridinF; re
quire a long panel beach, gentlv and evenly
sloping for a lond distance Into the tea,
without rocks or depressions, so that the
surf will roil in long sweeping breakers
with a uniform -seed from the time they
rorm till the waste and spend themselves
on the shore. Surf canoeing doe not re
ejuire nearly such uniform nor perfect con
ditions, because in the canoe the speed can
ne ateelerated or diminished by the use
of paddles to keep in exactlv the right posi
tion with relation to the rolling breaker to
get its forward motion
For ear, past there" has been no place
n.ea51 HnIulu where the condition were
right for surf-board riding, and it became
almost a lost art. Up to a few months
ago there was onlv one native known in
Honolulu who could ride the surf board
standing upon it. But within the last two
.- .ifeeiPir.t,h.'- "aml "P" hi,s formed
off the WaikikI beach right in front of
the suburban residence of Colonel George
W. Macfarlane. which gives the perfect
conditions. Surf-board riding has in con
.seejuenee been revived. ha In fact, become
a fad. and a large number of people, both
the a t natuts- hae become expert In
The surf board is five or six feet long and
rrom twelve to sixteen Inches wide near
the forward end. drawn to a rounded point
in front and tapering slightly aft. In gen
eral outlne It resembles a eoffln lid It
it perfect! tlat on the upper side, but eleep-
uneier side. To ride it the rider goes out
as far as he can in the water on the shelv
ing bearh: then, facing the hore. holds the
board up in front of him. point upmost, the
bottom or under side resting on his middle.
Just as the rolling motion of an aelvancing
breaker reaches him he gives a spring up
ward and forward bringing the board tlat
upon the water with rather more than half
hi- bod upon it. The springing movement
gives a forward motion to himself and the
board, which he aelels to bv- kicking against
tho rolling wall of water behind him until
his speed is jx ictly that of the breaker.
1 rom that point on. when the rider has
acquired the art. the rolling motion of the
surf carries him until it lands him high and
eir on the shore There are three points
in particular to be observed in surfboard
riding. To spring at the right moment,
to acquire the exact speed and direction of
the breaker, and to keep both sides- of the
board level. If one side gets a little deeper
in the water than the other it drags,
changes the direttioi. and the breaker is
lost.
From this point the next stage in pro-gre-sion
in the art is to be able to rest
one s elbows on the board and one s face
in one's hands. To riele standing on the
board, the rider gradually move- his body
forward on it. then rises to his knees, and
finally lo his feet. alwas keeping the edges
of the board perfectly level. As the break
ers roll in at about thirty miles an hour
and the rider cannot go out into the water
much deeper than up to his waist, because
otherwise he cannot make the necessary
initial spring, it can be seen that to ride
standing requires not only great dexterity,
but perfect conditions.
But the triumph is worth the effort.
Skillful riders can ride in conditions not
perfett by being able to adiust their speed
to the vnring speed of the breaker by
using their hand as a paddle when they
ftel they are going slower than the breaker,
or as a drag w hen they feel they are going
faster.
Surf canoeing Is exactly the same In prin
ciple, but the novite can enjoy It by going
out with an experienced canoeist.
