HIGHER LIFE IN CHRIST.
MIR. PENROsE AT CENTRAL UNION
SUNDAY EVENING.
Four steps -- Choose, Confess, Conquer
and Crown Christ The Life De-
ponds Upon Purpose.

A large and intelligent congregation
listened to Rev. Stephen B. L. Penrose
in his third sermon in Honolulu at
Central Union church Sunday evening.
The speaker pitched his voice high and
clear and every word was heard dis
tinctly throughout the large building.
The choir had been careful in making
selections for the occasion, and the
music was splendid.
Mr.. Penrose selected for a text the
2lst verse of the LIST chapter OF Paul's
letter to the Philippians, and read as
follows: "For to me to live is Christ,
and to die is gain"
In substance the preacher said:
An Englishman wrote book some
years ago the subject of which was,
SIS Life Worth Living?" The answer
to this question depends altogether upon
the purpose of life. Some lives are not
worth living.
Turn to the days of Paul. Whose
was. the greatest life then? You say
Nero. But what was the purpose of his
life? Licentiousness and personal glory.
Ask Napoleon, "What is the purpose
of your life" He answers, "Power."
Yes, it was power, and that purpose
changed the map of Europe. But see
him on st. Helena! His bowed head.
and silence, answer the question.
Now turn from Napoleon and from
Nero to Paul in his dungeon; ask him
the same question. He answers, 1.-The
higher 1ife."
The Christ life is the higher life, in
the first place, because it is a giUing
life. 1t is highest, in the second place,
because it lifts man up unto God.
And in the third place, it is the high
est life because it is Gods IDEAL
These are simple propositions.
But let us hasten on and see how
we may so live that we may come to
that higher life to which Paul aspired.
There are but four steps to reach this
higher life, and all of these begin with
&C." They are the four "Cs."
| lhS hiot VI bneoc slepS 10 tnOOSe.
That is the beginning of a life upon a
higher plane. The choice is with us,
whether we will cast our life with God,
or with RIGHTEOUSNESS and Satan.
The second step is "Confess"-to con-
fess Christ. Don't live down in the
cellar of life, but come up in the light
of God.
The third step is Conquer" The
Christian life is not a momentary
struggle. Day after day, year after
year, we go on from triumph to triumph
until at last we come out victorious.
The way you and will find strength to
conquer the evil in this life is to get it
from God.
These three points are vitality neces-
sary, but there is another, We need to
crown Christ. mean by that to make
our lives tell for Christ, to glorify
Christ, to make this earth the kingdom
of Christ. Let each hour, each day of
our life form a garland for His brow.
All Christ is indeed the higher life.
Shall we not strive to make our life a
higher life? Shall we not make this a
true life? Above all things let us de-
serve this higher life, and be satisfied
with nothing else.
The choir sang in closing, "Crown
Him Lord of ALL"

Marshall f. G. Hitchcock arrived on

Honolulu this evening.
An incident occurred here few DAYS
since which may be of some interest to
relate. The position of cashier and
bookkeeper at prominent mercantile
establishment at Kahului is held by a
certain gentleman who is said to have
been the war correspondent of a certain
San Francisco daily to follow the victor
ious armies of the dethroned Queen, and
to furnish his journal with glowing
accounts of the deeds of valor of the
Ruyaiist armies. As there were but few
heroic deeds to record, and none of
such performed on the battlefield, the
war correspondent was evidently needed
no further. He subsequently made
Maui his home and now holds the
position mentioned.
A few days ago certain gentleman

money of the Republic of Hawaii, our
ex-war correspondent was completely

The denial of the right of citizenship

lowing out of the rule that all colored
aliens except Africans are barred. This
may be hard in the case of an educated
japanese who has spent years in this
country, but no precedent can be estab.

Japanese coolie, who has perfect right
to enter this country if he does not come

GIRLS. AS YOU GO ALONG.


Come. all you fair young housewives and lis
ten unto me
Il mean those lucky ones who are from servant
bondage freel
And some advice I'll give you in simple little
song,
with the simple little chorus of-Girls, rs you
go along.
Oh, as you go along,
Leave everything where II should be, girls, as
you go along.
You take fancy for cake late in the after
noon,
And flour, butter, sugar, eggs and milk and
bowl and spoon
And other necessary aids the kitchen table
throng.
Don't let them stay; clear them away, girls, as
you go along.
Oh, as you go along,
Put each one back in its right place, girls, as
you 60 along.
And then you'll find how easily great deal
can be done
Without your being "tircd TO death" at setting
of the sun,
And though sometimes, in spite of care things
seem TO turn out wrong,
Twill always pay you to smooth the way, girls,
AS you go along.
Oh, as you go along,
So never leave your work behind, girls, as you
90 along.

SOME NAVAL CHANGES.
THE SUCCESSOR OF REAR AID
MIRAL WALKER.
Commodores Created Admirals-Skerrett
to be Retired-Reiief for the
Philadelphia.

New YORK, July 29.-The Tribune
Washington correspondent telegraphs
A number of important changes in naval
commands were ordered to-day by Sec.
rotary Herbert. In several cases the
orders created surprise in naval circles.
As result of the changes decided upon
and others which will follow in a few
days, there will be a decided shake-up
among the senior officers in the navy.
The most important of to-day's
changes were those affecting the Pacific
station. Commodore Beardslee, now in
command of the Port Royal station, was
directed to hold himself in readiness to
relieve Admiral Walker. Orders to sail
will be issued to Commodore Beardslee
in few days. He will go direct to
Honolulu from San Francisco.
Captain Cooper, at present a member
of the General Board of Inspection and
Survey, is to succeed Captain Watson
on the San Francisco, upon the return
of that vessel to home waters, as sue.
cessor of Captain Barker of the Phila
delphia. Captain Cotton of TIE receiv.
ing ship Independence, now at Mare
Island Navy Yard, has been chosen. He
will join the Philadelphia upon her re.
turn to Mare Island to be locked and
repaired. The transfer, however, will
not be made until the Charleston, now
on her way north from Peru, has been
put in readiness as relief of the Phila
delphia at Honolulu.
The orders of Captain Higginson tc
the command of the Boston have beer
revoked and he has been assigned tc
duty as captain of the Mare Island Navy
Yard.
Orders will follow in few days de
taching Admiral Skerrett as Com
mander. in Chief of the Asiatic squad
ron if the program mapped out in the
interests of Com modores Fyffe ant
Erben is carried into effect, as now
seens probable. Admiral Skerrett will
go on the retired list forthwith to in
ouiC W tilO lduN vi htdi'
Admiral of Commodore Fyffe before the
date of his compulsory retirement or
July 26th. AS soon as advanced Com
modore Fyffe will retire, thus promoting
Commodore Stanton, who, in turn, will
at once ask to be put on the retired list
in order that Commodore Erben may
be promoted before September, wher
he will be forced off the active list under
the age limit.
The effect of these probable changes
would be the promotion of Commodore
Meade to the grade of Rear-Admira
and his assignment to the North At
lantic station as commander-in-chief
Admiral Skerrett's successor on thu
Asiatic station is likely to be Com
modore Carpenter, now on waiting
orders. The place now filed by Com
modore Erben has been offered to Com
modore Kirkland, now in command O
the South Atlantic station, and he i
expected to accept the detail.

THE TARIFF BILL.
Passed the Senate and is Referred in
the House.

Passed the Senate and is Referred in
the House.
WASHINGTON, July 3.-In the midst of
intense excitement at 10:45 tonight,
after having been debated for three
months and one day the tariff bill,
amended to take effect August /, 1894,
passed the Senate by vote of thirty
four to thirty-nine, a strict party vote
except Mr.. Hill, who voted with the
Republicans against the measure.
WASHINGTON, July 6.-The bill for
the State taxation of greenbacks occu-
pied the attention of the House all day,
and it was passed by very large
majority. The only point of interest in
the days proceeding was the taking off
of the tariff bill from the Speakers
table and its reference to the committee
on ways and means, but this was I'M
attended by any excitement. Several
unimportant bills were passed, and the
House took recess until o'clock. The
evening session was devoted to private
pension bills.

POI PACKED IN OPIUM TINS.
The Chinaman was on the Safe Side O
the Law

The Chinaman was on the Safe Side of
the Law.
Captain Hookano of the policef force
owes all of the boys in the station house
a treat, and the laugh is upon him.
The reason for this is that the ever
watchful Captain arrested Chinaman
last night together with what was, to
all appearances, twenty-five tins of
Hongkong opium. But the booty was
not opium, hence the joke.
This morning the whole business was
opened and tin after tin, to the last in
the package, turned out to be ordinary
Chinese poi.
The Chinaman was given a free
pass out, and Captain Hookano sat
down so catch breath and mediate
upon the queer customs of some people.
