of all is the condition of tiie Irish

appreciate a Government like
the American —one Government and one
flag—of, for and by the people.
The trouble in Great Britain is that
the few own the laud; in Ireland it is
that mi much land is worthless. The
governmental condition of these countries—England, Germauy, Switzerland,

question was that of the integrity of the
empire. Grindstone has heen denounced
by most of the higher classes. Some
claim that he is In sympathy with the
Romanists, while others say he Is losing
his mind and is incapable of grappling
with great questions of government. In
one sense il is a light between the classes
and the masses, and the masses must
eventually win.
The Irish question
cannot be put aside, it is only u question of time when home-rule must he
conceded, not only to Ireland hut also to
Wales, and a system of federation in
government In- established, not unlike
the American. There is it deep feeling
among lie,- better classes of England in
favor of Irish liberation.
The affairs of Europe in

general are
anything but hopeful. France and (ierm my are w itching each other like prizelighters in the ring, and Prussia is longing for an outlet to the sea. The men
of the European countries are in the
armies and the universities and the
while the women, the cows
and tlte dogs are doing the hard work.
This is not the case, si least not in so
luge »sense, in England, but the Gov*
eminent and the Church are forced upon
yon tit every step They have built on
the external-, rather than upon internal
principles, and hence they are burdened
and environed b.v form and ceremony.
The disestablishment of tin- Church
must come, and wilh it disendowment.
It may be this issue can be delayed
during the lifetime of the Queen, hut
not longer. 'Che religious condition of
the peoples of Europe is one of formalism, skepticism and open infidelity. In
the Catholic cathedrals the services are
cold, perfunctory and Indifferent—fur
away from rhe hearts and consciences of
(he people.
There are the burning of
incense and of altar fires, the playing of
the organ, the ringing of hells and the
singing of choirs, mil of thought, Insirui lion, preaching—anything to arouse
people—you see or hear nothing. In
Westminster Cathedral a twenty minutes' sermon was preached that might
have been as well begun ut the end or
middle, or anywhere else, so far as any
deign of instruction or exhortation
could be discerned. In Scotland one
can hear excellent discourses, and the
Salvation Army of London is doing a
noble work by going down among a class
of people almost brutalized, and acquiring annzing Influence over them.
In all those countries are the great accumulations of the labor, the art and
the literature of the past. There is so
much of this dead past that the Old
World cannot bury it, and hence they
still keep it, making their world a vast
cemetery rather than a world of free and
progressive life. o6r mission to-tlay Is
to follow the world's Savior and Leader

�in tho ever-unfolding and enlarging
visions and possibilities of the great
future.
EDITORIAL NOTES.
Wk congratulate that veteran
missionary, Airs. U. s. X. Emerson, of
WaialUß, on attaining the ripe age of
seventy. She still retains much of her
vigor, and her work for Ood is highly
prized.
Tin: annual meeting of the Planters' Labor ami Supply Company, which
convened Monday, Odtolier 18th, brought
a large number of planters to the city,
many of whom were seen in our congregations on Sunday, October lTih.
AMONG THE many changes on the
political chess-board which have been
made during the past month the promotion of Mr. Flliai. WUNDENBEKQ to
be Postmaster-General Is to be commended, and insures an able and efficient
management of postal affairs.
WK iihiiiK'!' to learn that (lie health
of Fathbh Bond, ol Kohala, is not

years of life still before this veteran, and
that be may long be spared to give counsel and direction to tlu? cause of Christ
here in Hawaii, where his labors in the
past have been so signally blessed.

THE SCHOOL AND ITS FOUNDER.
BY REV. ELIAB BOND.

Hilo Boarding School! Not a great
name as the world counts greatness, uot

a name th.it has gono forth to the ends
of the world or attracted the attention of
those in the voted centers of learning
and educational enjivprise of the earth,
and yet a name familiar and very dear
to us of this Island and scarcely less so
to the entire group from Kau to Nilhau.
The Institution has a warm place not
only in the hearts of the more Intelligent and ruling classes In the community, but eminently so in the hearta
of tho common people.
There have been and still are other and
excellent schools on the several islands tun
dissimilar to this in their general aim
and character, bat no one of them would

to day cause a more hearty and signifi-

hands in
JA£&gt; national
Legislature upon a proponsT to vote#
pecuniary aid In any time of need than
Hilo Boarding School.
The growth of the school and its reputation have from the first been steady,
uniform, even. No tidal wave of public
sentiment has ever born it upon its rest,
Juvt to leave it thereafter to a hopeless
floundering* in the trough of e_p.icious
unpopularity. The growth it has gained
Jt has steadily and fully retained. There
is much In the recognition of this fact
for which to be profoundly grateful to
God. An intimate and protracted per.
sonar acquaintance with the affairs of
the Institution and with its lamented
Principal enable me to say that Hilo
Boarding School Is the natural outgrow tli of the character of its founder.
No institution ever bore In more unmistakable lineaments the impress of.its
efficient bead.
Steadfast, patient,
modest; of rarely excellent Judgment;
quiet and even in his methods of discipline ; thoroughly understanding the
Hawaiian boy, that is to say universal
boy nature; with a large charity, yet a
charUjr endowed with two sharp eyes,
escape from which was, as his boys well
knew, Alt butjbopeless ; having the gift
of continuance in duty; and all cemented la one harmonious whole by divine grace, and thoroughly- dominated

waa and is permeated by his spirit. Habits of Ixxlily industry have been regarded
as of equal importance to u lioy as thoso
of mental and spiritual activity.
The object of this paper is to mako
known to the patrons and friends of Hilo
Boarding School that the industrial features of the school are in no wise to be diminished in the future, but rather to bo
emphasized. And lo accompH.-h that,
friends of the school, your help Is needed.
It Is the profound conviction of those
who are to have the future conduct of
the school that the interests of the boys
—and that' means the interests of tho
tiawailun Kingdom—would be greatly
advanced by the erection of a building
suitable for industrial pur|Hises.
To those who admit the truth of the
foregoing statements the need of such a
building seems imperative. You all rejoice in the steady, healthful growth of
the school during the fifty years that are
gone. You rejoice in its present prosperity. Yet if you discriminate carefully
it will be seen that while tho conditions
for developing mind and spirit have been
improving steadily, the conditions for
training the bands have not thus changed
for the better. Industrial training demands au industrial building. Tbe manual labor cannot wisely be left to the taro
patch. Without an industrial building
it is f&lt;-lt that tho best results pceslblecan
not be attained by the teachers who are
to carry on the work. Is not this now
era upon which the school is entering a
most fitting occasion for the friends of
the school who revere the memory of
Father Lyman to raise a monument to
his name which shall long recall his service to the cause of Christian, industrial
education? and which shall bo a token of
your present Interest and an earnest for
the future—a monument on which shall
be inscribed Lyman Industrial l^ul?"

taught in the school, being paid by the
kahu of Hilo or Puna out of tho schoolfunds of those districts. This money
never wan treuted as a receipt and so
does not figure in the expenditures for
salaries. In so far as the first Principal's
salary was paid by the Ameriuftii Board,
it did not appear as a school-receipt and
hence does not appear in the above
amount of expenditures for teachers. The
former item would slightly increase the
•mount received from ttte Hoardof liducaiion (i. e. the Hawaiian Government);
while the latter would considerably illcrease the amount received from the
American Hoard.
Hy the figures above, it will be noticed
that the amount received from pupils
and farm products ($18,202.78) is only
$211.42 less than the amount expended
for food and miscclhtnctms expenses
($15,471.201, thus showing how nearly
self-sustaining the school has always been
aside from tin; two items of salaries nnd
buildings.
It is interesting to note aUo
that the Hawaiian Government has paid
$33,172.73 which is only $1,104.84 less
than the amount expended lor salaries,
$34,.137.07, thus showing how liberally
the school has been fostered by the government and how effectively the revenue
from that source has heen turned to the
advantage of the Hawaiian public.
Again, the amounts received from private
and organized bcne\olence ($23,100.72)
have been only $077.66 different from
the amount expended for building ($22,-689.16), thus showing what an essential

fa&lt; tor such aid htus proved In the schodPH
history. '
When it is remembered that the sehofla*
was missionary In its origin and uiidea

its history, it Is noteworthy that tlfl
amount received from farm productsmß

received from the American Boards
while the amount received from the pvE
pile and from the products of their labofS
which may very Justly be put to tb«
credit of the students exceeds that dtt)
rectly received from the American Board,
by $3,616.57, thus emphasizing the fact";
that a very little missionary money wise*;
ly administered in the inauguration and'
occasional partial .sustenance at critical
limesof such an institution as Hilo Hoarding School may becomy a mighty fores
in the development of a Christian civilisation. These figures are all the more
significant in view of the fact that the
early students came without clothing,
which was furnished them to some extent during the lirst eighteen years of
the school nt an actual outlay of $1 ~J07.(i9.

GOVERNMENT SUBSIDIES.
W. B. O.

As will lie seen by reference to
Receipts and Expenditures," the flnaru isl
nitl from the llnwnilan Government, latterly through its Board of Education, has
proved an important auxiliary in the con-,
duct of the school during the
Just closed. Without that aid the schodl
would have collapsed m its childhoutS
The disastrous conflagration of 186M
would undoubtedly have .permanently
crippled the school, had it not been for
the liberality of tho Government, in conjunction with other donors, in enabling 1
the school authorities to erect the large,
commodious building, now still standing.
To ho sure there was ample obligation on
the part of the Government to aid a
school through which more was being
done for the common schools than
through any other agency ; for not only
did its early Principal pay the salaries of

Perpetuity of tbe school, under tho
(Staged conditions, depended, In large

■■assure, on the suitable endowment of
wie institution. Accordingly under the
j**w administration the attempt has been
■lade to secure largely through private
subscriptions, an additional fund of
110,000, to* bo known as the Lyman
kMemorial Fund. Towards this sum,
t —Ih payments to the amount of $5000.12
r have been received, and been added to
|thc permanent Kinds making those funds

of $950.29. This income plays

have been mot by the surplus from these
two sources, together with such additional aid as could be secured elsewhere.
But it is apparent that a shrinkage in
this surplus works to the serious disadvantage of the school, inasmuch as it
necessitates an unwise curtailment in
tiie amount paid for salaries. It is very
desirable, on this and other accounts
that the school should be given greater
constancy in the work it is seeking to
do. That work is altogether too important and necessary for its success to
be so largely conditioned on receipts
decidedly tluctuating in their nature.
Notbiic is more desirable so far as the
outlook into the future is concerned than
that the school should be given a greater
degree of financial stability. Great progress has begn made in this direction in
tho Inst five years, and what is being
attempted in the lino of a fuller endowment is in the same direction. It is
hoped thut the friends of Hawaiian
education will continue to render aid in
consummating this policy of endowing
the school with a larger fund, that, us it
steps forward into the work of the next
half-century it may do so with a steadiness and nssuni ice that has not fallen to
Its lot to show consplcuosly In the last

SCHOOL BENEVOLENCES.
BY W. B. O.

Tho aim from tbe first has steadily
been to teach the boys to give intelligently and willingly to benevolent
objects. Primarily this was done for the
purpose of developing in them u spirit
of helpfulness and of Christian charity.
But as will be seen, the effect has been
to largely off-set tho aid which the
school has received from organized benevolence. Thus since 1867 the annual
contributions have aggregated $ 1,6(88.29.
This sum L nearly as large as the combined amount received by the school from
the Hawaiian Board and the Hawaiian
Mission Children's Society, viz., $1,710.
It is significant to note In thisconnection
that only $500 of this htt'.er amount was
given in direct aid to the school, toe
balance being in aid of wards of the two
societies. So that if this $500 be added
to the direct aid from the American
Board since the organization of the
school, vis., $14,(847.21, the amount
$15,147.21 represents the total receipts

figures are not available showing the
total amount contributed by tho boys
during the fifty years. In 1848 It appears by Mr. Lyman's report to the
mission that "by extra exertions during
tlfelrfew leisure hours, the scholars have
raised more than $50 for foreign missions." As will be seen by the figures
above, the school-boys during the last
nineteen years, have contributed what
is equivalent to eleven per cent, of the
combined aid received from the American Board aud tho Hawaiian Board. It
is entirely within bounds to conclude

above, so

that it Is likely that the voluntary contributions of the school-boys have amounted
to twenty-five per cent, of the aid received from the two sources mentioned.
This Is significant in thut it affords

Tho men followed the gift.s. As we look

be Increasingly expected from this institution in the life of missionary Interest
and suppport, as well as In tho development of a Christian munline«s that shall
make Itself felt In every Island pursuit,
who will gainsay the wisdom that
planted this school or begrudge the missionary money that has exemplified in
this particular instance the truth of that
paradox In Proverbs, "There is. that
scattereth, and yet increaseth."

THE SCHOOL BUILDING.
BY DR. C. H. WETNORE.

In the year 1830, Just after tho Hawaiian common schools had been "partially or wholly suspended from lack of
competent teachers, and the scholars
having become tired of monotonous repetition," the missionary .fathers "believed
that about all the good had been accomplished from such resources as could well
be expected until more highly qualified
teachers could be furnished." Accordingly, at their general meeting of that
year, they "authorized Bey. Messrs.
Lyman and Coan to establish a boarding school for boys at Hilo station." "In
less than two months" after their return
from Honolulu "two native houses"
were erected in the yard now belonging
to Dr. Chas. H. Wetmore, directly mauka of his dwelling-house, at an expense
of about one hundred and forty dollars.
These building were occupied four years.
In the meantime the attendance having
increased from eight to sixty-five pupils,
tiie interest in the school, also, being
much greater among the people, and tho
fl -H ■•• under cultivation becoming necessarily much enlarged, it was decided to
change the location of the school buildings.
Two new one-and-u-half story houses
were completed in 1840. They were
located on the 1 lamukuu side of the late
Rev. D. B. Lyman's house, which was
built about the same time. They were
neat thatched buildings, with substantial wooden floors, desks, etc. They
lusted until destroyed by fire in(Tfbvember 1853. Their original cost was about
$700.
A temporary building was immediately provided for carrying on the school, being located a little mauka of the charred

timbers and debris of the old houses.
The old Puueo meeting-house was purchased and converted into a dining-room
for the school, and later was moved

mauka and changed into a cook house.
Plans for the present substantial school
building, with school-room below and
dormitories above were early made with
special efforts to guard against conflagration. Mr. Fuller, tho Secretary of tho
Board of Educttlon drew the plan,
Which was accepted with scarcely any
modification. The zinc-roofed building
was compleled early Jn 1850 "on an eligible site of about forty acres previously
furnished by the Hawaiian Government."
The building cost $7500 of Which $1000
came from the Hawaiian Government,
$2000 from the A. B. C. Y. M. and $1500
from Churches and individuals at the
Islands. The refectory in the basement
was shaken out by the fearful earthquake of 1808. A new dining house was.
erected soon after whero the present
Dining Hall now stands. The building
known ns the Hospital was badly shaken
by tho earthquake and it was necessary
to make it over into its present form.
In W7B it was moved to its present location where it is temporarily used as a
work-shop for the carpentry department.
The Principal's house, towards which
Rev. E. Bond contributed $1000, was
erected in 1879 at a cost alxmt $2200. In
1883 the iron cook house and bath house
were built at a total cost of $500. The Recitation Building was built in 1884 at n
cost of a little over $1000. Tho Dining
Hall is our Jubilee building having been
built the current year at a cost of $11100.
ALpresent the tailoring department is
located in the upper story.
The total original cost of the buildings'
has been about $13500, while it has required about $9000 to keep them in repairs and to make such alterations in
them as new conditions demanded. This
large outlay for repairs is one of the
necessary evils arising from the location
of the school in the specially trying climate of Hilo.

A SUCCESSFUL PIECE OF

WORK.

BY GEN.

MISSIONARY

S. C. ARMSTEONG.

I am glad to give my opinicn of the
Hilo Boarding School. As a means to an
end It has, I think, proved the most successful, effective missionary work at the
Hawaiian I-lands. Mr. and Mrs. Lyman,

In a quiet wise way trained native lx&gt;ys
to bo Christian, well-behuved, industrious and intelligent young men, who
knew enough to do the work they bad to
do, yet were not stuffed with book-knowledge in a way to mike them conceited
or feel too far above their peoplo and
thus tempted to use thorn as their tools.
You seem lo havo curried out the .same
idea. It has always been a lesson to me
here. School training for the Hawaiians, the Africans, or the Indians should,
in the great majority of cases be elementary, industrial, earnestly and practically
Christian, not attempting tho higher
scholarship (though they can easily master advanced studies) but devoted to
making self-reliant men and women of
simple tastes, above their people yet of
them and full of the spirit of missionary

Work for them. Tho Hilo Boarding
School has better than any school at the
Islands illustrated this Idea, it Is precisely what I have tried to do here. Not
that I am not In sympathy with higher
education for "the weak and despised
races" for I believe In It for selected
ones, and am glad that all the colleges
in the North are now open to our black
people; but In answer to the question
"What is needed most, and what ie
needed now for the Polynesians and the
Anglo-Africans and Indians?" I say, the
methods of the Hilo and Hampton
Schools, which I hope will be applied to
the Kainehameha School, soon, I am
glad to learn, to be under your charge.

THE TRUE IDEA AND METHOD OF

Beneath the sunlight and warmth of a

That is not a saved humanity wnich is

also making them right-hearted, is to

only after the Gospel had come to them.
However, tho Gospel never comes to

impossibility Is a true and permanent
Christianity without civilization, as its
rear-guard, as Is a true and permanent
civilization without Christianity as Its

and keep watch of that lx&gt;y. Just then

Pretty soon, the Commodore and his

gold laces and shining epaulettes, came
ashore, to call upon the missionaries. As
soon as possible father Mked the surgeon

EARLY MUSIC.
BY MISS H. F. COAN.

A prominent feature of the Hilo
Boarding School has always been the
good musical training given the boys.
Long ago—even a generation or more
rtnok—not only vocal but Instrumental
music was taught and learned with
equal enthusiasm on the part of teacher
and learner ; and with delightfully tuneful results.
The children of those days wondered
how Mrs. Lyman could give lessons In
the use of instruments on which she
could not herself perform. But missionaries and pioneers are often called on to
accomplish wonders. They were marvelously sweet sounds that were produced by the school chorus, accompanied
by the little orchestra of violincellos,
bass viols, flutes and clarionets.
Among the alumni scattered over the
Islands there must be some of those performers now, gray-headed, returning to
a Jubilee In Hilo, but a different Hilo—
now church, new people, new leaden.
However they will think with aloha of
the almost forgotten thatch church for

which* the school in a body long made

�8
the only and efficient choir. They will
recall the many evenings in which they
produced entertainments for the guosts
of the two or three mission families in
Hilo.
Perhaps they never knew how interesting their performances were to those
strangers visiting our shores. Any observer could see that the listeners were
not only pleased but surprised at the
amount of musical taste and cultivation
displayed by those Hawaiian lads.
The heads that planned, tho hands
that labored, lie resting, teachers nnd
pupils alike, "silent in the grave." Hut
sometime, somewhere, will they not all
loin again in sweeter harmonies than
earth ever knew ?"

could aid be applied to the needs of the

The boys in such schools as Hilo Boarding School become leader- among their
people in every department of life. It is
desirable that they should become better
acquainted with their past history, in order that they may avoid the evil tendencies of other days, and that they may
gain fresh Impulses to honorable and useful lives from all that was worthy and

spirit that comes from an indefinable impression that all in the paat was worthless, and that all in tbe future is hopelees, colore Hawaiian conceptions more

—The expense of carrying on such an
institution as Hilo Boarding School now
as compared with earlier years la very
considerable. This hi due to the high

J

prices wli ich have accompanied the
most phenomenal development of (M
country's resources. The relative pa*i
chasing value ol money in is;t»jand 18(9
is shown in this that u corn broom
cost -in cents, now it costs 50 cents ;
beef was two cents a pound, now it j
ten and twelve cents. The higher cost oflj
living has necessitated a heavier expend
iture for salaries as well as for incident™
ami food expenses. This is a fact whi j|
should be noted by those who are intern

endowment.
—The singular thrift With which
finances of the school were managed IJ
the early years is strikingly exhibited i|J
the history of the lierd fund. A cow and
a calf were purchased in 1844, and
profits from this source, together witM
the mission herd which was donated ta_
the school, were such that in 1852,
the first time, there was school money pS
at interest. This money thus put at
terest was about the same as tho avalj
of the lierd bo that without the benfl
there would have been no school funrjj
and of course no income from Ir.tci—J
In 1803 the fund thus originated, tjj
gctber with interest accretions,

cents." The distance from Hilo to W(2I
men is about sixty miles, and in
days tiie dittlculiies encountered in cnam}
