Portuguese Attempts to Raid the
House of His Dead Wife.

Shortly after p. m. yesterday
a telephone message was received
from the vicinity of the circus
tent, Beretania street, to the eff
feet that a fight was in progress
in house directly opposite the
tent. Upon arrival of mounted
patrOlmen it was found that Man
uel Sebastian Reyne, a POrtu-
guese of the dark order, was
smashing up furniture at a lively
rate in the house pointed out. He
was Immediately put under arrest
and taken TO the police station.
1t seems that Keynes wife died
a few days ago and not having
lived with her for five years, he
had not learned anything about
the matter until yesterday. Ac-
cOrdingly, he filled himself up on
whisky and went to the house
with the intention of carving
away the furniture piece by piece.
Some one in the neighbOrhood OBJ
jected, but he quietly pushed the
man out of the way and began his
smashing-up operations.
When searched at the police
station his pockets were found to
be filed with watches and tObac,
co of every kind.

Origin Of the Society in Hawai-
ian Islands.
REV. J. A. CRUzAN. THE FOUNDER.
The Influence Upon the YOun@-Ac-
tive workers Among the Churches.
Program OF Convention-Oficers Of
Local SocIety-Institution Growing.

The idea of a Christian EndeavoT
Union was suggested by one of the
members of the Y. P. S. of G. E con-
nected with the Central Union Church.
Acting upon the suggestion, delegates
from the other Islands assembled in
Honolulu about year ago and elected
the following officers: President, Lyle
A. Dickey, Honolulu; secretary, Miss
Agnes Judd, Honolulu; first vice presi-
dent. Miss Grace Richards, Honolulu;
second vice president, Miss Harriet
Austin, Hilo, Hawaii; third vice presi-
dent. David Lindsay, Paia, Maui; fourth
vice president, Mrs Ogy Maxwell, Ka-
uai.
The Christian Endeavor Society in
these Islands has been very aggressive
the past year, and the enthusiasm has
reached the pitch where the Union has
deemed it advisable to call a convention
of delegates from all the societies in the
different Islands, to meet in Honolulu
June Sd.
eties-one at HiIo, connected with the
Hilo Foreign Church, another at Paia,
a third at Maui Female Seminary, and
two in this city. The oldest society
was established in the old Fort-street
Church during the pastorate of Rev.
J. A. Cruzan, and recently another
branch has been located at the Ka-
waiahau Seminary. AS yet no society
has been formed in the Hawaiian
Church The Union has translated in
to the Hawaiian language the pledge OF
the society and proposes in the coming
year to plant branch of this organiza-
ton in every available church, with
view to bringing the particular fea-
lures of the society and the work it is
doing throughout the world and espe
cially in these islands, before the pub

been arranged for Wednesday evening,

Justice Field Very Ill.

SAN FRANCISCO, July 1.-THE ven-
cradle and distinguished jurist, Ste
phen J. Field, associate Justice of the
supreme court of the United States, is
critically ill.
So serious is his condition that it
was yesterday decided to be impera-
lively necessary that he be brought
back to this city from Paso Robes,
whittier he was sent fortnight ago in
the hope that the change might be of
benefit to him.
1t is realized by Justice Fields friends
that the best medical attention is nee
essary to preserve the life of the aged
sufferer. A special train was dis
patched to PasO Robes this afternoon
with physicians, nurses, ETC., and if
the condition of the noted patient will
permit of his being removed he will be
brought back to San Francisco tomor-
row morning.
1t is possible that careful nursing
and absolute rest may restore the JUS
tice to health, but those best acuuaint-
ed with his condition say that there il
little hope of his recovery.

Stephen Fiske, who probably knew
Dickens as intimately as did any
American, has been induced to write
of "The Personal Side of Dickens
for the September Ladies' Home
Journal. Mr.. Fiske often spent
seasons with the famous novelist at
Gad's Hill, and his article will de-
scribe the incidents of these visits,
Dickens home life. his method OF
working, and his pastimes. 1t will
possibly surprise Dickens friends to
learn, through Mr.. Fiske, that a con
siderable portion of his library was
made up of dummy books, which,
however, offered the author a target
for some of his delightful satire il
giving them titles, and afforded hi,
guests great amusement.

Relative Value of Advertising Space.

Danvillc Register.l
The value Of advertising space de-
ponds upon the character Of news
paper and its circulation. Some
people have an idea that if there are
two papers in town the advertising
rates will necessarily be lower. Ad-
vertising rates are always Lased upon
the circulation and character Of the
paper. An advertisement in one pa
per may be worth to the advertiser
hundreds of dollars because of the
large circulation and high characte,
of the paper, while the same adver.
tisement in another paper Of smaller
circulation and inferior character

The North Carolina Local Minis
ters' Conference was organized at Dur
ham twenty seven years ago, with
Brantly York, ID. d., as President, and
Levi Brans0n as Secretary. For six
teen years the Conference changed.
yearly from kinstOn in the east to
Asheville in the west. Many of the
local preachers and lay workers at
tended from time to time and became
interested, so that much good has been
done by way of inspiring local oad ,n-
pail missionary TOrk.
In 1856 the Conference again met at
Rutherford College, built Taber-
nacle, and elected that as the place for
permanent meeting. In 1890 the Col
lege was burned, and the Conference
was held in 1892 ut Raleigh, and 1898
at Trinity Park, Durham.
The twenty-ifth session-the Quar-
ter Centennial-was held at Rutherford
College in July, 1891; the twenty-sixth
at the same place in August, 1895.
This was the first, and hence the
oldest Local Preachers Conference by
name, so far as known, anywhere in
the world.
The Quarter Centennial was cele-
brated with much enthusiasm.
August 1915 the Twenty-seventh
Conference will assemble. Many To-
cal preachers and editors are expected
also travelling preachers and distin-
guished ministers of other denomina-
tons.
