To persons who are debating the
III conference meetings, we commend the
following
In enjoiuing silence upon the Corinth-
ian women (your women), Paul assigns
the reason that IL is not permitted them
TO speak, aud Immediately interprets
this reason by the antithetic clause, "but
to be obedient." Then these women
could not speak in the church without
assuming to teach and usurping authori-
ty over the men, the very things which
Paul elsewhere expressly forbids TO wo-
men. To secure order in the churches
AMI the ;t,ou Of each member without
trespass upon the spheres of another,
seems to have been Paul's entire object
in his directions relative to the internal
arrangement and the government of the
churches. Only as preventing trespass
upon the rights of Others, and as secur-
ing order, did Paul enjoin upon women
silence in the church.
Then may women speak in the church
and in the public? No, and yes; ior the
prohibition is conditional. Women may
not speak in the church, if, as Mrs B. in
terprets, they can but gable, and say
nothing to editication. Women may not
speak in the church if thereby they lose
modesty and proper Difference for the
authority of men, and are tempted &c
usurp power. Women may not speak
in the church if they have husbands who
refuse their consent. Women may moi
speak in the church if the general senti
ment of their own local church fobids it
tor then it would introduce confusion
But if none of these reasons require ST
lence, then women may speak i'll the
church and in public. Let her full rights
be awarded to woman, and she will be
less likely to oyerstep the limits OF hel
proper sphere, and she will be able tc
undertake works of usefulness, in which
success has not hitherto been achieved

The Pacific Commercial Advertiser of Honc

The Pacific Commercial Advertiser of Homo
lulu says:
Among the odd sights that attract the atten-
ton of visitor in Honolulu is that of the ma
nves, carrying hay or grass for sale about the
streets. AT each end of the carrying stick, or
nldnldbd, as it is called, -commonly used by
them to carry their burdens,-is a cylinder Of
hay, about five feet long, artistically tied around
with rush strings. These bundles will weigh
anywhere from six or eight, to twenty-five lbs,
varying as the weather is stormy or fair, but al
ways sold at the fixed price of twenty-five cents
a bundle, more or less, good or bad. The Gus
tom of the place is to buy from day to day the
supply for horse, as the days milk is bought
When cold storm intervenes and continues for
several days, few sellers and small bundles are
seen, horses must go on short commons. At
times, it comes to hay famine. When our WISH
tor extends his walk little out of town, he
finds further novelty in the way the hay is
procured. He sees, mot a mower, swinging
scythe through tall grass which falls in
swath at his left hand as he steps
along, but man or woman, squatted down,
thrusting a sharp spade before them, pairing off
the turf at the surface of the ground, shaking
out the dust and litter. The grass, either green
or partially dried, is made up into cylinders, to
appear as bulky and have as little in them as
possible. If the hay merchant finds the mar
ket brisk, and his bundle pretty large, he will
not infrequently stop on the road, and make
one bundle into two
Our visitor asks if this is not an expensive
way of cutting hay2 There is no question that
it is an expensive and troublesome way of buy
ing it. We reply, it is. The cost, at current
rates of wages here, would amount TO some fifty
or sixty dollars an acre. The question runs,
why does not some foreigner engage in the
business, and introduce scythes Sor moving
hachlnes, hay wagons, etc.; but the inquirer
Is Is SHOWN that the native grass grows low and
inlck, like fleece of WOOL scythe, or now
ing machine would leave the weight of the
hay uncut. lI =

Americans seeking English fortunes are a
common subject OF newspaper paragraphs. AL
most every week brings at least one story of
an estate which has been accumulating for
hundred years or more in the hands of ineor-
ruptible trustees or punctOus courts of chan
Gerry until it amounts to fabulous number OF
millions, all waiting to be claimed by the heirs
of John Smith or Timothy Jackson, who came
over in the Mayfower. The supply of these
cheerful romances has fallen off little of late,
but their place bids fair to be filed by new vari
ations on the same theme, which, however, do
not make so agreeable reading on this side of
the ocean. The English Micawbers seem to
think that this is getting to be one sided
game, and that it is quite time that fortunes
should turn up for them in America, as well as
for our branch of that family in England. The
consequence Of the first move in this direction is
that the rural and credulous people of Suffolk
county, Long Island, are vacillating between
wonder and fear at a demand to surrender their
homesteads to satisfy the claims of certain per-
sons, who say they are defendants Of " Lord
John Booth of England" who settled on Long
Island, perhaps two hundred years ago. The
proiessed heirs of the late Lord John" claim.

press their willingness to accept eighty millions
of dollars as an equivalent for aquit claim deed.
We are afraid Lord Johns defendants are on
cold track. The Suffolk county farmers may be
temporarily disconnected and dismayed, but
they can be trusted to hold their dollars and
their cabbage patches with tenacity that

A California Farm.

Forty miles from Marysville, on the Califor-
MIA and Oregon railroad, lies Chico, near which
place is the "ranch' OF Gen. Bidwell, formerly
member Of congress from this state: It is one
of the old Spanish grants, and contains twenty
thousand acres of what is said to be the finest
land in the state. Its possessor came to this
country in 1912, and he has been farming here
on a large scale for fifteen years. Twenty thou
sand acres of fair, smooth land, with brook
running through it, which would be called
river in New England, and which drives -four
mill on the estate, is property worth seeing;
and General and Mrs. BidweIl Hospitality enter
tanned us and showed us the crops, which would
astonish a New England farmer and please q
farmer of any country. The crops have failed
in parts of California, but here they promise to
be very full. We saw one field of wheat of
thousand acres; field of oats which contained,
l believe, four hundred acres, and in which a
man was quickly lost to sight, SO high were the
oats; and cattle scattered over what seemed to
be boundless plain. The estate, which is ia
nous even in California, has sixty miles of sub
stantial board fence; dozens of miles of private
roads; a vineyard of 300 acres from which Gen.
Bidwell proposes to make not wine but rasins-
in which l wish him the best success; and the
crops this year consist of twenty-five hundred
acres of wheat, about seven hundred of barley,
and nearly as much of oats. Over one hundred
acres, are, besides this, in orchard; and the al
mond was here as large as a good-sized apple

the fig and the English walnut had grown to
stately trees; and cherries, peaches, plums,
apricOts and apples, all were thrifty, and so
laden with fruit that they threatened to break
down. The curculio is unknown here; the
cherry has no knots, and in fact no fruit is yet
diseased. Three hundred horses, 1900 head of
fine cattle, 5000 sheep, and 5000 hogs make up
the inventory OF General BidwelPs live stock; ;
and a hundred men are fed by him daily the
year round, and make up his constant working
force.
To manage so great an estate is, I suppose,
laborious, but after all it must be, if the owner
is master Of his work, one of the most agr eeable
occupations for man of intelligence, especially
in a country like California, which has still so
many unexplored avenues to success and
wealth in agriculture. 1t was pleasure to see
that both the general and Mrs. Bidwell looked
to the interests and improvement of their
laborers; a church in the village has them for
its principal contributors; he has given large
tract of land to form a school fund, and he de-
serves the reputation he has all over the state,
of an upright, sincere christian gentleman

credit in refusing him the use of the common,
and adds :-"outsiders frequently say Boston is
a small place with small people, and this act of

idea" If Boston would adopt the New York

might soon regard it as a very big place with
very big people, although they would, probably,
be slow to admit that anybody else can be as
great as Fisk, Jr. 1t will be generally admitted
that the grand development of this notorious
