MULE SATISFIED HIM,
Thief Then Stole Carriage and Harue o

Darly Saturday morning thief broke
into James Flynn's barn on West Mar

Officer Perry was notified and fol-

His Third Respite.

United States District ct-Attorney
Knight received a dispatch from
Washington yesterday announcing
that President Cleveland had
granted another respite until jan
uary 25, 1895, says the Examiner
of the Goth ultimo, to Mate ST.
Clair, the mate of the Hesper, who
is now in the Santa Clara county
Jail under sentence of death. st.
Clair was convicted of murder on
the high seas and sentenced to be
hanged some months ago. This is
the third respite granted by the
President.
District-Attorney Knight made a
motion in Judge Morrow's court to
have st. Clair transferred from San
Jose to San Quentin. The court
granted the motion, stating that he
would leave the matter to the dis
cretion of Marshal Baldwin. The
latter said that he had decided to
leave st. Clair at San Jose, as he
saw no necessity for his removal to
San Quentin at present.

NINE SUNDAY SCHOOLS.
Account Of Christmas Gathering
at Waihee.

On Christmas Day over three
hundred Hawaiians, from nine
Sunday schools in the districts of
Makawao and Wailuku, Maui,
gathered at the Waihee church on
the occasion of the annual Sunday
school exhibition, held in the h0li-
day season at different centers.
Each of the nine schools took part
during a four hours programme
with great credit to themselves and
their leaders and to the enjoyment
of the congregation present.
Scriptural recitations, biblical
catechising, and singing, made up
the contribution from each Sunday
school; all parts, particularly the
singing, deserving notice and re-
flecting credit on both singers and
leaders.
Three judgesAN. Kealoha, David
Kehaulilio, and d. N. Opunui-
with the approval of the audience,
awarded the chief honors for the
best performances to the schools of
Wailuku, Makawao and Waihee.
The Wailuku school gave an ora
torio directed by Pastor Kapu who
had himself arranged music and
composed words on the theme Of
Moses leading the people out
of captivity and into the
land of promise. The Superior
style of composition and rendering,
with the fine voices of this choir,
made a feature that would have
been an attraction at any concert.
Makawao school, led by Judge
Kalama, made an excellent record
for itself with good singing, as did
also Waihee, led by Robert Nawa-
hina. The interesting feature of
the last school was the large num-
Der of young people and children,
who took part with excellent effect.
The exercises throughout, of un-
usual interest and excellence, were
marked by harmony and courtesy,
and there was an entire absence of
any political illusions in the sew
eral acceptable addresses that fol-
lowed the exhibition.
A point of general comment was
the appearance of the church,
which, in preparation for this fes-
tival and the New Year, the pastor
and members had with their own
hands scrubbed, painted and
whitewashed, inside and out. A
comfortable outdoor luau closed
the proceedings of pleasant day.

WHO MANAGES THE THEATR?.
A Dramatic Editor Give His Views
Regarding It.
L. j. Levey Writes Letter, but it is
Not william Dailey's
Success Established.

Recently L. ]. Levey sent a letter
to the San Francisco Music and
Drama for publication. The editor
refused to print it, giving the fol-
lowing reasons:
'L. J. Levey, who for several
years, was sole agent and manager
for the proprietors of the Royal
Hawaiian Theater during the late
monarchy, objects strenuously to
the announcement that the house
is at present under the manage
ment of w. R. Daley, and sends a
letter to Music and Drama, in
which he claims that he is still in
charge of the only theater in Ho-
nolulu, having been its manager
since October %, 1891. He makes
some statements in the letter re-
ferred to against Manager Daley of
a purely personal nature, which it
would be manifestly unjust to pub
lish, and also sends clippings from
two Hawaiian papers to strengthen
his statements and position. The
fact that Mr.. Daley played two ex-
tended engagements in Honolulu,
evidently financially successful,
since his company was paid in full,
and presumably successful from an
artistic view, judging from the
great praise the performance re-
ceived from the leading Hawaiian
papers, seems to be established.
The question as to who now con-
trolls the bookings of the theater is
matter that any manager who
contemplates a visit to Hawaii
can easily ascertain. Mr.. Levey
has played a number of frst-class
attractions in the islands and has
been prominent merchant and
citizen of Honolulu for years.
There is no reason why there
should be any controversy between
the parties mentioned, as they are
not likely to, want the theater at
the same time or to clash with each
other in engagements, as the firm
of Spreckels & Co., who own the
property, will attend to that part of
the business"

"Our work among the Hawaiians
is very varied. We stand back Of
some fifty ordained ministers,
about forty of whom are conduct
ing the work in fifty-four churches.
Most of these men ought to have
grants in aid for present emergen-
cies, for their support is most mea-
ger. Three of our four native
schools are without endowment.
The great work they are doing for
the education of Hawaiian charac-
ter could hardly be continued with

THEY NEED SOME MONEY.
Prospective Shortage in the Funds
of the Hawaiian Board.

The Hawaiian Board has five
missionaries at the Gilbert Islands
and two at the Marquesas. 1t costs
$1,700 year to keep them. In a
letter which appears in The Friend
Treasurer Hall reports prospect
i've need of 81, 800 for 1895. The
letter says:
'The friends of this evangelical
work that is being carried on
among the various nationalities in
these Islands have given literally
in the past, and we have faith to
believe that their generosity will be
continued for the days to come.
"The case is urgent. Besides
that which we are doing for those of
the Polynesian and Latin races, we
are trying to evangelize about 49,
600 Asiatics. We have over thirty
teachers and eyangelists at work
among them-including those at
work among the Portuguese there
are thirty-six in all-with six we'll

and nearly score of preaching
stations.
