The Hawaiian Evangelical Association

The Hawaiian Evangelical Association.
From the fifty-seven Hawaiian Evan
gelical Churches, there have come
| twentyseven ministers, elected by the
Island Associations, and eleven dele
gates, for the annual meeting. The rOu-
tine business has been transacted with
orderliness and despatch. Rev. j. B.
Hanaike proved himself a capable Mod
orator, and Rev. S. l.. Desha an efficient
Scribe.
The reports from the churches show
no items of special interest. The work
of uniting the weaker churches under
one pastor seems to be the order of the
day. Obstacles and discouragements
abound, but the spirit of the Hawaiian
pastors seems to be for an advance move
ment all along the line. The Associa-
ton has adopted new rule, arranging
the deacons in three classes, one class to
go out of office each year. There has
been much discussion about the settle
ment of pastors. Every church wants
the best preacher, but the churches that
have good pastors do not look with favor
on any attempt to deprive them of the
pastor to whom they are attached.
Thursday morning was devoted to re-
ports of the Treasurer and Secretary of
the Hawaiian Board. Previous to listen
ing to these reports, the Association
welcomed some delegates from the Cen
trail Union Church. Rev DR.. Beckwith,
Mr. A. F. Cooke, and Mr.. W. A Bowen,
presented the fraternal greetings of the
brotherhood of believers in that Church,
with assurances of friendly interest and
readiness for all possible cooperation.
Mr.. F. w. Damon, also, told of the mis-
siOnary work he is doing among the
Chinese, and asked the sympathies and
prayers of Christian Hawaiians for these
heather folk that have providentially
been brought to this land of Christian
light and love.
Following the reading of the report of
the acting Secretary of the Hawaiian
Board, Rev. j. Bicknell, the Association
discussed with vigorous animation the
condition of the Hawaiian churches,
stirring up one another to more energetic
prosecution of Christian work
Hon. A. +. Judd was present at the
meeting yesterday afternoon, and by re-
quest addressed the Association. He
spoke of what he had seen in the outer
districts on his judicial circuits. While
)mmending the fidelity of some pastors,
he spoke of the negligence of others.
He closed with some earnest words for
the consideration of all the pastors of
the Hawaiian churches in view of the
responsibilities put upon them, that
they should deal faithfully and lovingly
with every individual in their parishes,
seeking to win them to Christ and to a
life of holy obedience.

The first of the Government cases
against the 81 Chinese was finished yes
terday, but the decision was reserved.
A nolle prosequi was entered against
two of the defendants, who were small
boys, and looked more like cherubs than
offenders. A re-examination of some of
the others was subsequently made in the
presence of counsel, and resulted in the
entering of nolle prosequi against p
more. The case against those whom
the Government has finally decided to
prosecute will come up this morning.

THE Police Bill passed it's second
reading almost without resistance or
amendment. There seems to be practi-
cally no division of opinion in the
House on the subject, and under
the circumstances we see no reason to
suppose that perfectly futile royal veto
will be interposed. Such an interposi-
tion would merely obstruct temporarily
what is clearly the will of an over
whelming majority of the House. The
third reading of the bill is set for to-
morrow,

FROM briefly examining the proposed
Military Bill, We see no cause to appre-
bend that any practical objection will
be made to it, either in or out of the
House. Those who object to anything
which will retain the Honolulu Rifles,
will of course oppose this bill They
have, however, no reasons for their OPP
position which will meet the approval
even of the most conservative wing of
the Reform party, 50 far as the sub
stance of the bill is concerned. We re-
serve, however, the liberty OF criticizing
it as to certain details.

By the report of the Minister OF
Foreign Affairs, it appears that
an invitation has been extended to
Hawaii to exhibit a series of
Photographic views of Hawaiian seem
cry and industries at the Exposition to
be held at Melbourne" next August, it
being understood that after the EXPOSE
ton the views will be placed in some
gallery or elsewhere, where they will be
accessible to the public, and where, by
extending a knowledge of and interest
in these Islands, they will operate as a
sort of perpetual advertisement. The
idea is an excellent one, and should be
adopted, it seems to us, by the Legisla-
ture. The appropriation required for
the purpose will be a very small one.
There is nothing which these Islands
stand more in need of than advertise
ment If the world at large could know
what attractions the group possesses in
the way of climate, scenery, and fertility
of soil, we would speedily have tourists,
capitalists and settlers here-as many
as the heart could desire. The world
has really not discovered these Islands

An Old Ship ChandIery Stand.

A new floor and other improvements
are being made in the store lately occu-
pied by A. w. PIERCE & Co. on Queen
street, who have recently sold their stock
il trade to the Inter-island Navigation
Co., and give notice to their friends in
our advertising columns. This build
ing will be fitted up with a large and
commodious office, into which when
ready the company will move and
make it their headquarters much
more convenient stand fol business
than the place on the Esplanade
now occupied by them. This old
ship chandlery has for some forty
years been a favorite resort for seafaring
men, and will probably continue to be
SO. Early in the f:ties Captain Thos
Spencer occupied it, and was succeeded
about 1862 by Bolles & Co., and later by
Peirce & Co., who retire after business
career OF eighteen years. Captain PIERCE
tells us that his first visit to Honolulu was
in 1843. in whaler. Since that time he
visited the islands frequently till he quit
the whaling business in 1870 and located
here.

For quick raising, the Royal Baking Powder is
superior to all other leavening agents. 1t is alb
solutely pure and wholesome and of the highest
leavening power. 1t is always uniform in
strength and quality and never fails to make
light sweet most palatable and nutritive food.
Bread, biscuits. mullins, cake, ETC., raised with
Royal Baking Powder may be eaten hot without
distressing results to the most delicate digestive
organs. 1t will keep in any climate without
deterioration.
Prof H. A. Mott, U. S. Government Chemist
after exami ming officially the principal baking
powders of the country, reported:
''The ROYAL Baking Powder is absolutely pure,
for l have so found itin many tests made both
for that company and the United States Govern
ment.
Because of the facilities that company have
for obtaining perfectly pure cream of tartar, and
for other reasons dependent upon the proper
proportions of the same, and the method of its
preparation the Royal Baking Powder is
doubtedly the purest and most reliable baking
powder offered to the public.

A recent game of base ball at Sib-

judge that ladies ought by all means to
attend these ball contests. The Ga
zette says in reply to the blackguard
Reporter:
The fact is, the Gazette did not do
the subject justice out of respect for a
few business men in the crowd, some
of whom, we will now say, were the
instigators in urging on the hot words
which emanated from the Sibley people
out of defense of the ladies who were
obliged to sit and listen to the most
foul mouthed language ever uttered by
men who claim to be decent. What
we said about the Rock Rapids hood
lums was true to the letter so far as it
went. They did empty several bottles
of whiskey and beer in plain view of
those in the grand stand. They did
use language unbecoming to the most
