In the old days no woman was al
lowed to desecrate the monastery of
San Augustin, Mexico, by so much
as putting her foot within its walls.
A noble lady of Spain, wife of the
reigning Viceroy, was bent on visit
ing it. Nothing could stop her and
in she came. But she found only
empty cloisters, for each virtuous
monk locked himself securely in his
cell, and afterward every stone in the
floorwhich her sacrcligious feet had
tuched was carefully replaced by
new ones, fresh from the mountain
top, before the pollution of her pres
ence was considered removed. But
times arc sadly changed, and the
house has been turned into a COM
mon hostlery. .l

In Memoriam.



Mr.. Asa WilguS, residing near Ed
gar Creek meeting house, in Logan
county, Ky, departed this life Nay
9th, 1881. lie was attacked on the
25th ult., with paralysis, while sit
ting at the table of a friend, and
though he was removed to his own
home on the following day, and all
that was possible was done for him,
yet God had called him, and he was
compelled to go. A devoted wife
bent over him by day and by night;
his children wept and worked about
him; neighbors and friends crowded
to his bedside to give him aid, and to
speak for him words of comfort.
During his suflerings his Christian
torbearance, thankfulness to friends
and loved ones, and trust in the mer-
cies Of his ever blessed Savior, were
exhibited in a remarkable degree.
To his associates and relatives he
had long ago given advice concern
ing the duties Of life, and respecting
mans tinal destiny, so that when
death came to him he had nothing to
do but to gather himself up and pass
from earth to home of rest.
Father Wilgus was born in Fay
ette county, Ky, April 24th, 1914,
and was, consequently, 70 years and
Il days old at the time of his death.
lie united with, the Baptist church,
at Edgar Greek, Nov. 9th, 1919, and
though living in Illinois and Indiana
two years of his Christian life, he
still kept his membership with the
Edgar brethren, and during all these
days went in and out, before the dis
ciples of his Master as one born of
God. Few men among us devoted
more time to the reading of the Bible
than did Bro. Wilgus. Surgeons
sermons wore constantly at his hand,
and the things of God were his chief
conversation. Much more could be
said, respecting our departed
friend and brother, but we forbear.
TO that wife who did so much for
him in sickness and health, to his
surviving daughters and son, Mr.. G..
A. Wilgus, to his only living Lrother,
Mr.. Alfred Wilgus, of Paola, Kansas,
to each Of his other relatives, togeth-
cr with the families Of all his kindred
and to all his ncighbors, friends and
Christian brethren, the writer would
say, may our Heavenly Father be
with you all till we shall meet the
beloved husband, parent, kinsman,
neighbor and Christian brother
where parting shall be no more, and
sorrow shall never come.

Independent ticket. \ For if the Indepen-
dent ticket is elected in sufficient strength

spect instead of the charity Of the world

Let every thinking man, thin, determine
to come to the polls today, let him cast

assured that he has done a good turn to
Hawaii as nation The platform of the
Independent Party is before the voters.
Economical administration of the finances
Of the Kingdom. Reform in the malad-
ministration of public affairs. A thorough
reform in the Board of Health, which, in
place of windy rhetoric or scissors and
paste books, will give our wives and chill
dren that proper protection from disease
and lingering death which they do not
have now. Finally, the independent
Party most emphatically propose to sup
port true constitutional governments, and
to strongly resent the efforts that have
been recently made to override popular
rights.
With such platform the Independents
ought to win. 1t appeals to the common
sense of all voters. If the independent
Party fails, it will only be because of un-
due coercion and that, as we have shown
has been used. VOTERS, TURN THE TABLES

How often have we in the past read APP
peals in the p c. Idrcrtiser to race preju-
dices! That journal, on the eve Of the
election. came out last Friday with anoth-
er of those insidious charges against the
white people residing in these Islands,
laying to their dislike and distrust of the
Hawaiians, the entire blame for the pres
ent state of things. The opposition to the
present Ministry has been owing wholly
to disappointed office-seekers," and to an
ungenerous sentiment towards the native
population! This the reply which is made
in behalf of the Ministry, to the criticism
which has been made upon its course for
the last two years The planters and 9th
ers, whether residing in Oahu or else
where in the group, who are known to
have deplored the way in which public at
fairs have been conducted, many of whom
have openly expressed their disapproval
of and want of confidence in the Premiers
doings, are to he assured fOrsooth. that

In one of our San Francisco exchanges we find
the following mot few Of our citizens will feel
pang Of regret to learn of the dissolution Of the
connection which has existed since the very incep-
ton of the Merchants Exchange, between its Sec
rotary, Mr. J. A. Coolidge, and itself. Since 1866,
nearly eighteen years. Mr.. Coolidge has been close
ly identified with all the material interests of the
Exchange, and the practical management of its
affairs has been in his hands. That his admins
traion of the multfarious duties which fall to the
lot of Secretary of such an isitution has been an
able one, is universally conceded by all who have
come in contact with Mr.. Coolidge, and in testi-
mouy of this and of his industry, intelligence,
probity and capabilities, the patrons of the e1-
change mot the association presented him on his
retirement from the Office, with very handsome
testimonial. Although much regret has been e1-
pressed at the change made by the Trustees, and
| the removal of Mr.. c. yet there is some consola-
ton in the fact that his successor, Mr.. J. c. Pat
rick, is gentleman who is highly popular with all
who know him, and is admittedly well qualified tc
fill the position. 1t is pity that the needs of the
Exchange should not require the services Of both
gentlemen.

IT is reported. and the report seems to
have good foundation, that Judge Kauai
who was running as government candi-
date at Maimea, Kauai, has been ordered
by the government TO withdraw. We
pointed out last week that the President
of the Board of Health had been writing
down to the Island to make inquiries if
the statements published in the GAZETTE
were correct; he received a reply substan-
tiatng what had been published in this
paper. But the government should not
stop at merely withdrawing its support at
the elections from this man: after the
President of the Board of Health has
found out that it is really fact that Mr..
Kauai in one of his election addresses an
nounced himself as a leper, he should 90
a step further and have Mr.. Kauai exam
med to see if he is a leper or not We
have no information at hand that the Pre-
mier president has done anything of the
kind. To the faithfulness of our CORE
spondent in Kauai is due any action that
the government may have taken in this
matter.
Our correspondent at Waimea further
points out that the authorities are shame
fully lax in allowing acknowledged lepers
to be at large. That seoundrol who near
ly murdered his sister the other day. has
for a long time been an acknowledged lep-
er; but being a violent man, the police are
afraid of him, and he comes into Waimea
almost with impunitY. No doubt the ex-
ample set by Mr. Kauai has had its due
effect upon petty officials around Waimea.
See to it MIR. Minister that these things be
changed. and that proper investigations
be held
