Mr.. EDITOR The suggestion tc
proclaim the 18th of January as a
national holiday is not received
favorably by all your readers. II
is not objected to on the ground OF
having too many holidays, but
chiefly because it seems rather pre-
mature. Moreover, it means loss
of day on all the plantations,
which are now in the midst of
grinding, as all the workmen can
rightfully demand exemption from
labor. When the new order of
things is fully established, and a
Protectorate or the REPUBLIC OF
HAWAII unfurls to the breeze its
bars and lone star of the Pacific,
it would seem to be more timely to
set apart such days as shall then
be decided on as the most fitting to
preserve the events fresh in the
memory of future generations.

GRESHAM OUT OF FAVOR.
Cleveland May Ask His Resigna-
ton.

WASHINGTON Cd. CO., Dec. 2S.-
The Presidents ducking trip may
nave some very important conse-
quences. 1t is asserted on the au-
thority of Cabinet officer that the
apparently trivial diversion had for
its object the breaking to Secretary
Gresham Of the Presidents con-
clusion that his services are no
longer needed in the Cabinet.
The President, it is said, feels
that he has been subjected to so
much adverse criticism on account
of his Hawaiian policy that he is
in anything but kindly mood to-
ward the Secretary of State, who
shares with him the odium of that
programme, and has determined to
shift from himself as much of it as
is now possible by making Gresham
the scapegoat, as he has on previ-
Gus occasions made Carlisle the
scapegoat for his financial mis-
takes.
The plan is said to be to appoint
Gresham to the Supreme Court in
case the nomination CT Hornb]ower
should fall through. If Horn
blower succeeds in weathering the
dilatory tactics Oh the Senate,
Gresham will be given something
else, but it is asserted that he has
got to leave the Cabinet in any
event.

A Suggestion That the ex-Queen
Buy a Guillotine.

Mr.. EDITOR When the Sultan
Of Turkey, country governed very
much like Hawaii before the "un-
pleasantness of January, 1885," Wis
tied the London exposition, as the
guest of the Queen of England, he
walked before many exhibits with
out taking the slightest interest in
them. He finally stopped before a
trip hammer weighing twenty tons,
used for punching holes in steel
plates six inches thick, and showed
the greatest delight in watching its
work. He turned to his attendant
and said, "Order ten of those things
to be sent to Turkey at once"
"What will Your Majesty use them
for?" inquired the attendant. "They
are just the machines l want for
punching off the heads of my re-
bellious Subjects" replied the Sui
tan.
Will the ex-queen take five:as
first installment? Mr.. T. H. Da-
vies may gladly furnish them, pay
able sixty days after the restora-
ton, out of the confscated estates
of the wicked missionaries"

seItied Dy the supreme Court of Pennsyk
vania-The Evangelical Association Wins
Its Suit Against the Seceders Involving
the Title to Two Hundred and Ten
Church Edifices-Berks County Reversed.
PITTSBURGH, Pa, Oct. 2.-In the SUI
.preme court of Pennsylvania, which
met in annual session Yesterday, JUS
tlce Williams rendered an opinion re-
versing the Berks county court and
granting Rev. Augustus Krecker and
others an injunction against Rev.
Jones Ii. Shirey and others. The
case was dispute for church
property growing out Of the cele-
brated split in the Evangelical
association at the time that Bishops
Dubs, Esher and Bowman were sus-
pended from their Offices The court
reviews the case and finds that the last
conference at Indianapolis was the le-
gitimate ruling power of the church,
and that the Eastern Pennsylvania con-
ference was an illegally constituted
and rebeilious body.
The property in question is the
Emmanuel church at Reading The
court rules on seven points regard ing
the trouble as follows: First, that the
general conference of 1891 was the teg-
ular successor of that of 1887; set ond,
that the alleged general conference
that met in Philadelphia in 1s91 was an
unauthorized body and its assumption
of ecclesiastical authority was an act
OF rebellion; third, that those confer
ences, congregations and church mem
bers that adhere to the general confer
ence constitute the Evangelical asso-
citation; fourth, that those who adj
here to the Philadelphia confer
ence are an Independent and hos
tile association; fifth, that the
property which prior to 1891
belonged to the Evangelical associa-
ton now belongs to that body; sixth,
the assignment of the plaintiff, Kreck-
er, to the pastorate of the Emmanuel
church, having been made by a pro-
visional body, gave him no title capa-
bic of enforcement, but his subse
quent ratification by the general
conference gave him title under
the law of the church, and therefore
ullttCI bIlc law Vi tlic StNGuJH. Iu6
assignment of the defendant, Shirey,
to the same paStorate, by the illegally
organized conference of East Pennsyl-
yania. has no title capable Of enforce
ment underthe law Of the land against
the Evangelical association or its ad-
herents
The decree of the lower court is re-
versed and an injunction is ordered to
restrain the defendants from exercis-
ing control over Emmanuel church and
from excluding the plaintiff from the
pulpit of the church. The costs are
also placed upon the defendants.
This decision settles the ownership of
210 churches in Pennsylvania.
