Hendricks, who died at the Homeopathic Hospital on Thursday even- ing between 10 and 11 o'clock, will be buried from the Churck of the Epiphany | tomorrow at 3 o'clock, and friends are in- vited to the service. Mr. Hendricks’ death | Was a great surprise to hic many friends | and acquaintances, although he was known | to be very ll. He was carnestly devoted to his work as manager of Woodward & Loth- rop’s great business enterprise, and became much run down by his attention to his/ duty Four’ weeks ago, for the purpose of | taking a much-needed rest, he went to At- lantic City for a week, and while there was taken with a severe chill. Realizing that his sickness was of a nature that would require immediate attention, pe re- turned to his home, where, after consulta- tion with his physician and friends, it was | and was taken there two wecks ago last Monday. His illness proved to be typhoid fever, and from the beginning it was known to be-a serious case. Mr. Hendricks was a man of the very best of habits, strong will and a fair constituti@n, and 1t was hoped he would overcome the disease. Unfortunately for him, other members of his family had died from the same sickness, and this fact seemed to depress him very much when it became known that his own illness was of the same nature. He, how- ever, made a brave fight for his life, and apparently was succeeding, as he had re- turned to consciousness in the early part of the present week, and the physicians had every reason to believe that he would recover. This was nct to be, however, and apparently without any warning whatever the disease took a sudden turn for the worse on Thursday evening, and the end came unexpectedly. Mr. Hendricks was born in Poughkeepsle, N. Y., thirty-three years ago, and early in life went into the dry goods business, and was connected with firms in New York and Philadelphia, Nine years ago he came to Washington and entered the employ of Woodward & Lothrop. where he has been since that time. He was first a clerk, and by his strict attention to business, his fidel- {ty to all the interests of his employers and his marked executive ability he was ad- vanced rapidly until he became general Manager of the business of the firm, He was pecullagly well fitted for the position, and will be greatly missed in business cir- cles, where he was well known. His family consists of a wife and two young chjldren, who have the sympathy of many friends in their great @fMiction. Mr. Hendricks’ mother is yet living, and hi come,to be present at the funeral. Mr. Hendricks was a communicant of Epiphany Churek and a member of the order of Masonry. ‘The pallbearers at the service to- morrow will be Messrs. J. N. Harding, J. M. Buzzell, P. C.J. Treanor, F.

DECORATION DAY AT RONOLULU Assembling of the Constitutional Convention. THE WHITES’ DETERMINATION Correspondence of The Evening Star. wees HONOLULU, May 31, 1894. The borings made on Pearl harbor bar have been continued by the force from the United States flagship Philadelphia, by or- der of Admiral Walker. About two-thirds of the twenty required have been made, and afford a reasonable certainty as to the re- sult of the whole. Nothing has been found to a depth of thirty-two feet but soft sand | or mud of comminuted coral and shells. The only operation required for the entire clear- ing of the passage for the largest ships to enter with ease is the work of an ordinary suction dredge, delivering the sand through its conveying pipe, either into the deep wa ter immediately outside,” or upon the reef to the westward, where the prevailing cur- rent will drive it farther. The entire cost is Hkely to be under $200,000, perhaps less than half that sum. There is talk of the admiral setting the government dredge at ence at work there. It ts a good end effi- cient one, but is needed for further work in this harbor. Probably a larger dredge will have to be procured for the purpose. The Race for Necker Ish Much interest has attended the secret de- parture for Necker Island, on the 25th, of the small coasting steamer Iwalant. Capt. J. A. King, minister of the interior, went with her for the purpose of raising the Ha- watian flag upon that outlying islet of this group, and declaring possession of it by this government. The pecullar interest grew out of the fact that the object of Capt. King’s mission was to anticipate an sp- prehended occupation of the island by Great Britain. Some intimation of such in- tention reached the government some weeks ago. By the Warrimoo, on the 24th, such further information came as caused our au- thorities to act in haste. What was learned was that Necker Island was to be occupied as a cable station on the line proposed be- tween Sydney and Vancouver, conneciing the british colonies in America and Aus- tralia, Such a station is absolutely neces- sary in this vicinity, and it is the desire of ote to hold the independent ownersnip of fis Additional excitement grew out of the sailing ef H. B. M. S. Champion two hours after the Iwalant, in the same direction. It) was not believed, however, that the Cham- pion had any inkling of the Iwalual’ rand. Moreover, it had been given cut + eral days before that the Champion would leave the harbor on the 25th for target practice at sea. Nevertheless, rumors pre- valled that she was going to take possession of Necker Island, and a race between her and the Iwalani was imagined to be taking place. The larger ship would have much the advantage tn such a contest History of Necker Island. Necker Island Hes “within the sphere” of Hawatian influence, and, naturally, belongs to this group. It is only 150 miles beyond Nihoa, or Bird Isiand, which has always been recogftzed as one of the Hawailar group, although, like Necker Island, untn- habited. Indeed, Necker, like Nihoa, was known to the ancient natives, although not familiar like the latter. Many years ago Capt. John Paty raised the Hawaiian flag upon several of the further islands in the | chain, but falled to effect a landing on j Necker Island, around which he found the surf breaking heavily on every side. ‘Any good chart of that part of the ocean sho’ that the Hawaiian or Sandwich group does not terminat> to the northwest with Kaua! and Nifahau, the farthest of the inhabited islands in that direction. A long chain of uninhabited Islets stretches on to the west and northwest for 1,200 miles forming a continuation of the group for that distance far towarnd Japan. Prominent names among these are Nihoa, Necker, Lisansky, Midway. Laysan, Ocean and French Frigate shoal, all in continuation of the Hawaiian chain, and from 100 to 130 miles anart. These islets are. so to speak, the grave- stones of the dead and sunken volcanoes of an ancient portion of the Hawaflan group. A few of the nearer islets still reach to.a few hundred feet in height above the sea. the last worn remnants of old sierraa of voleante ridges, still seamed by basaltic dykes, where lava once poured up through One great earth fissure runs along this line of 1,500 miles, through which the internal molten contents welled up into the ocean and built up islands for many millions of years. ‘Phe process began at the westward end and proceeded slowly to the southeast. where the giant volcanic domes of Hawati rise, Sti" fresh, from the sea, with un- seamed slopes, over which new ‘torrents of lava are often discharged. To the west- | ward, on Molakai, Oahu and Kauai. the old, extinct domes are deeply seamed and broken by ages of atmospheric erosion, while their masses have gradually subsided deenly baok into the ocean. Bevond Kaual, | fissures, far back, perhaps, in the Tertiary. | } only a few remnants of surviving peaks, or | of coral reefs, are left to mark the sites where ancient islands flourished, clothed in beauty, like their existent successors. Even the youngest of the group, Hawaii, has been slowly growing, bullt up out of the sea through many lehg age by intermittent upwellings of fiery lavs Settlers of the Isla: Man came here only about twelve cen- turles ago to occupy these remote islands. Polynesian men, born navigators and ex- plorers, reached here in their large and swift ukas from Savil of the Friendly Islands, whence New Zealand also was pop- ulated, at about the same period. The ocean pacific, the winds blew gently from one prevailing quarter, and the stars guided them surely, as they sank the southern cross and raised the northern wain. Their roaming ancestors had worked eastward from Malaysia, Java, Timor and Celebes, in earlier centuries, and the Poly- nesians were still explorers. But beyond the Hawaiian group they found nothing more, and the small barren islets chaining off westward were not worth settling upov. Necker Island 1s a rather barren rock,about. feet high, about one mile in length. No doubt some landings can be found on its shore in smooth weather. It is much like Bird Island in its conditions, except that the latter ts three times as high and far more rugged. Both islets are the homes of in- numerable sea birds. I once landed on Bird Island, and the mo- ment we surmounted the low cliff and sti ped upon the upland, birds, large and small, rose in literal myriads around us. Hardly a step could be made without treading on eggs and into the holes burrowed for nests. On the tops of low bushes were bullt the nests of the great frigate bird, each with its large single chick, helpless and clumsy, but large as a great turkey. Their immense breasts were covered with thick, soft white down. The natives with us relentlessly wrung their necks, despite their angry, clashing mandibles, and stripped off the downy pelts. On the outside of the north- erly Cliffs could be seen, as we approached the island, hundreds of feet aloft, these young birds in long rows on the ledges, where they were born, like strings of white pearls, while the parent birds, on long pliant wing, scoured the sea around our steamer for food for their young. We were, by the way, on this same steamer, Iwalani, some ten years ago, and Liliuckalznt, then princess, was the chief of the company. Like her ancestors, she was a capital boatman, and I never saw more agile work than the way in which she darted over the rocks and sprung into her boat, as fhe surf was retreating. An equer- ry was on each side of her. We all had a rough time in getting off the island that afternoon, for the sea had risen. One spring of fresh water was found near the shore, but it was bitter with guano. No doubt plenty of rain-water could be caught, were the island to be occupted. The same condi- tions doubtless exist_at Necker Island. Property of Hiwatt.’ It is not the intention of this government to permit any of its belongings to be gob- bled up without asserting its claim to them, Necker Island, like Nihoa, is the undoubted property of Hawaii. If we are to join our lot with the United States, we desire to car- ry with us all our rightful assets. In the event of war between England and the United States, whose lot we have no doubt of sharing,’ it would be a serious inconveni- ence to the latter for the enemy to possess a private center of naval intelligence in the INDEX TO ADVERTISEMENTS.

Whatever the advantage to England of such inde- pendent means’ of communication, she will probably have to forego it, and effect her eable connections via Honolulu. An ex- amination of the chart will show that Necker Island lies in direct line between Vancouver and Johnson Island, where it | has been said the cable would be laid. Fanning’s Island and Honolulu are more likely to form the route of the line. Hawatian Flag Hotsted. The Iwalani returned to Honolulu on the | evening of the 2uth, after four deys’ absence. ine hours were spent on the Island. The highest cliff was climbed, , 700 feet high, the Hawaiian flag hoisted, j; and a proclamation read by his excellency, name of the provisional government of the Hawalian Islands, reference being made to an earlier claim made in 1845. Evidences of former habitation were found cn Necker, such as also exist on | Nthoa, in the form of walls. The inhabit- ants were doubtless natives from Kanai or Nithan. Some idols were found and brought | away in broken condition. Quantities of | Similar fragments were ‘left behind. These \images are carefully hewn by sharp hard [stones out of the softer vesicular lava. ‘They are from six to fifteen inches high, grotesque caricatures of human form and teature. In general character they resemble | the ordinary ancient Hawaiian idols. The type of feature is pecullar—enough so to create a doubt whether they were the handiwork of Hawaiians, and not of people from possibly groups to the southwesi, hike he Gilbert or Marshall Islanders. There is plainly work there for an antiquary. He | might possibly find graves with bones precious to the ethnolugist. Turtles were an great numbers, fish abounded. One seal Was shot by the s«ipper, and its skin saved. The Co ationa: Convention. | Nothing was seen by the Iwalani of the Champion, which returned yesterday from | her target practice too late for her officers | to attead the opening of the constitutional convention, even if their Minister Wode- | house had permitted them, which he would no: have done. Our American minister, Willis, who would not let the American of- ficers attend the celebration of the provis- jonal government's birthday las: January 1ith, turned out to the opening of the con- vention, with the admiral ana officers, re- splendent in full uniform. The Japanese naval officers were likewise on hand, and the affair was quite gorgeous. Tnere was no military parade, in fact, the military were not in sight at all, except a small de- tachment half a mile away, who fired a sa- lute at the moment of opening. Neverthe- less, the business was conducted in a some- what stately and very impressive manner, made So largely by the fine bearing of our handsome president. The thirty-six members of the constitu- tional convention sat together, immediately in front, in the old legislative hall, which was crowded by a large full-dress assem- bly. The president came in quietly, preced- ed by a number of dignitaries, and alter the chaplain’s prayer proceeded at once to de- liver an address to the convention in full, clear tones. This address you will probably have already received by wire, and it need not be here enlarged upon. It was serious, thoughtful. courageous and thoroughly grasped the situation. Nothing car be bet- | minority of tne inhabitants of Hawaii in assuming authority in the interest of order civilization: No part of a nation which has made progress in civilization has a right to drag the other part back to barbarism, and no ruler the right to imitiate such a re- lapse, ‘ing upon the indifference or want of political sense of a portion of the popu- laton. Those who submit without protest to such a scheme thereby confess their in- ability to accomplish or defend their own civilization, and surrender the task to those who are willing to do it for them. There is, therefore, in this assumption of power in such @ crisis by those who would protect and foster the civil progress of the state no violation of the rights of those conspiring against such progress, of of those who may contemplate such conspiracy with helpless: indifference, because unable to understand This effectually disposes of the clamor o! ‘Theoph. H. Davis and his class, who et cutery that the rights of the Hawahan peo- ple are overriden by destroying the mon- archy without their consent. These poor blinded natives are ing away liberty end civilization for the ¢ of a sentiment of nationality, “Hawall for the Hawatians,” end no white men to interfere! The whites are here to stay, and they mean to keep the country of its course of civilized gress. If the natives cannot follow with them, then they must lose share in the gov- ernment. Hawaii is not to be remanded back to barbarism, to please a so-called sentiment of nationality. Equally are disposed of such appeals and protests as one presented the other day tu Minister Willis for transmission to the President by a company of natives, who de- clared that the coming convention repre- sented only a minority of the population, who were urping power in undertaking to create a constitution for the unwilling majority. The fact is that this native political, sense, and lacking capacity for public affairs, or even for private business Of the dozen’ or more of the committee of natives who presented the protest. hardly one Is capable of successfully conducting anything that can be called business. ‘They all are elther in some inferior occupation, Pdeadbeats, or under other men’s control as Acream of tartar bakin+ pow- der.

Trying to Heodoo the Convention In illustration of the quality of this re- | actionary element, it is in place to say that | it is certain chat a large number of native kahunas, or sorcerers, have been at work in town for several days to hoodoo or be witch the convention. It is also nearly os | quite certain, with the most reliable evi- dence, that Mrs. Dominis is concerned | actively in this superstitious work. She is accustomed to pose to visitors as a highly | civilized, enlightened, religious, and virtu- | cus woman. All this is mainly sham. She | has a veneer of civilization and accomplish- ments, At heart she is deeply heatheniged, | | There is the mcst unquertionable and co- Plour evidence of her repeated active par- Ucipation tn idolatrous prectices. Not only Ay | these, she has often taken part tn the grorsly lewd posturings of the hula. She Goes these things in more or less sccrecy, @ thing not often successfully by royal personages. Persoaally, I regard the | evidence as satisfactory that the incanta- Uons of the sorcerers now going on to in- | jure or break up the convention are with her active connivance. While this work is futile and idiotic ta the view of the foreigner, it seriously In- fluences and commonly terrifies all but the most enlightened of theMatives. There are five natives In the convention. Three of them, I am quite confident, are quite above such fears. The other two may not ba, | Mort of the relatives of all of them are ely to be made fearful and anhappy by | the supposed peril of their kinsmen. j Serves to illustrate the sort of influences under which native politicians and rative | Voters, as well as native jurymen, very commonly act. The native people are dying of their superstition and sorcery more ti from almost any other cause. Of these su- perstitions and sorceries the late king, Kal- akaua, was the chief tor and re- viver, and in her political course, his sister Lilivokalani has turned in the same direction for the means of regain’ | the old despotic power of the chiee ae | this sort of thing, and with it, all native political control, has now to be bruthed aside by the civilized whites, not only in the interest of the country’s progress, but for the saving from extinction of the natives themselves.
