terms. The doctor thinks she has
succeeded very well.
1.-THE Gilbert islands are progress
sive," he said. ''There is a vast
difference between them now and
when l first went down there years
ago. Then almost all the natives
were entirely naked-the men never
thought of wearing anything. Now
they think they must all have
clothes, and all of them are anxious
to learn.
"The king of Butaritari, who was
here some time ago, is a good man.
He is really a Christian, being sin
cere in it, and anything he can do
for the advancement of the island
ers he is always anxious to do. The
islanders never were cannibals in
the sense that the Fijians were.
They never ate human flesh for the
love Of it, but if in war they killed
their enemies, they might taste
some of the flesh to show their ha-
tired of them. But the Fijians
would eat men entirely for the love
of the flesh.
II am very anxious to visit the
Gilbert islands again. For some
time l have been engaged at Homo
lulu on the Bible. We brought
several of the Gilbert islanders up
and employed them as servants and
got them employed, and whenever
we needed assistance as to the
meaning of any expression We
would call on them. Besides, my
wife is a remarkably good scholar
in the Gilbert-island language, so
we got on very well.
"There are about $4,000 natives
and they are situated on eighteen
islands, scattered along on and
near the equator. They are about
2500 miles from Honolulu. My
father was a missionary to the Ha-
waiian group in 1920, so when
got old enough, after I was educat-
ed, | fell into the work naturally"
DR.. and Mrs. Bingham, who have
become famous for their missionary
work, will start for the islands on
the next steamer. The doctor once
commanded the missionary ship
the Morning Star.

A NATIONAL GUARD FUNERAL
PROCESSION RUN OVER
By a street Car on Nuuanu street
Thursday-The Driver To
BE Arrested.

One of the most disgraceful
scenes ever enacted in this city &C.
CURED Thursday afternoon while
members Of the national guard were
returning from the funeral of Cor
poral Girard. AS the military were
marching along Nuuanu street, at
point nearly opposite the resi-
dence of Mr.. J. T. Waterhouse, the
driver of street Car No. 20, going in
the direction of the cemetery, over
took the columns.
At the time of meeting the street
car Captain Zeigler's company was
marching on portion of the track.
The driver of the car, noting this
fact, whipped up the horses and
came near running into the column.
By quickly executed order given
by Captain Zeigler his company
barely escaped being run over.
The street car proceeded on its way,
breaking the line of march of both
columns.
On the return trip the car over
took the soldiers, and instead of
waiting a sufficient length of time
to enable the military to move off
the track, the driver dashed the
horses, causing them to travel at a
running gait. On account of this
the band had to divide or get run
over. Lieut.. Smiths men were also
compelled to break ranks.
The car dashed along, the driver
plying the lash vigorously, until
the column commanded by Lieut..
Coyne was reached. When the
lieutenant saw the horses were
running into his men he gave in
structions to them to stop the
team.
One of the soldiers thrust his
gun between the collar of one of
the animals and forced it back
ward. This caused the horses to
rear and plunge, All this time the
driver was talking loudly and
madly whipping the now badly
frightened animals.

tated attempt on the part of =

instead of vice versa as at present
Consequently the Alameda did not
sail until the 22d. The change is
made by special request of the Eng
fish and New Zealand postmasters,
who have arranged to connect the
mails on the later dates. The new
line sailing from Vancouver under
the protecting wing of the Cana
dian Pacific, has its sailing date
down for the 18th of each month,
but as there are only two boats on
the line it is doubtful if the sche-
dule will be lived up to. The
northern boats take in Honolulu,
but overlook Auckland entirely and
can hardly be said to be in compe-
tition with the Oceanic company,
which has its subsidy from New
