NATIVE WOMEN AFTER ANNEX
ALTON.

Congressman Tawney. who
visited these Islands. a few weeks
ago. recently stated in Washing
| ton, it is said: that the white wo-
men here lin Hawaii in heart.
class the native women with the
negroes"
The statement is untrue. Ev-
eryOne here knows that it is I'M
true Probably some of the white
women who have lately settled
here, may entertain that opinion,
but the old residents make no dis
tinctiOn socially between the ma
tive and the white, excepting only
as they make distinctions between
the different classes Of white, as
they are divided by char
acter, brains and wealth.
Women of mixed Afri-
cam blood. it is true, are not re-
lceived in American society, owing
to prejudices. but that discrimina
ton so far as Hawaiian blood is
concerned does not exist here.
Not a day or an hour passes, with
out full evidence on this point.
The natives are probably
justified in their fears
of discrimination regarding CO.
Tor. because they cannot under
stand the history and reasons for
the distinction. Moreover, they
are maliciously told by the enem-
les of the Republic that they will
be Disseminated against as a
class. in the event of annexation.
1t is unfortunate that this miser-
able argument is placed before
them. 1t is a hopeless task to put
them in the right way of think
ing.

SWIFT JUSTICE.

The conviction of KamalO at La
haina. of the murder of a Chinese
woman is another case which
shows the rapid and admirable
work of our Judicial and admin
istrative service. He was charged
with the crime on November 10Th,
and was tried, convicted on De
cember 18th. There is no sugges-
ton whatever that his rights were
not protected, or that the speedy
trial had prevented him from
making a proper defense.
The conviction also of the Jap
anese who killed a Japanese wO-
man and her child at Waikapu,
was another instance of speedy
and dignified justice. The faith
full work of Judge Kalua, of the
prosecuting officers, and of the
jury, all of whom kept the Court
in session and at work during
many days, and far into the nights
should be appreciated by the com
munity. Of course, they simply
discharged their duties, but they
discharged them with unusual di-
ligence.
Apparently, there is an epidemic
of crime. 1t is rather only a coin
cidence that SO many murders
have been committed within a
short space of time. Those who I'M
derstand the real conditions of our
social life, willrealize the supreme
Importance of making the Grimm
al class understand. that he who
maliciously kills, must quickly
step on the scatfOld.
In the case of the Japanese con-
victed of killing woman and
child, the Government furnished
the prisoner excellent counsel,
and betrayed the expense of OBJ
tanning testimony for him. Neither
the japanese officials here, nor the
Japanese residents offered to as
sist their cOuntryman, on the
ground. we understand. that they
believed in this mans guilt.

and on looking at the kameha-

munities among the great civiliz-

pOrtunity. The final belief that
in manual training is the best So
luton of the problem before the
average boy and grid is dominant
i'm these schools. In the manual
skill is found the arsenal which
holds the best weapons for the
battle of life among the common
people.
These institutions are probably
the last and browning effort Of
philanthropy to equip the native
Hawaiians with the means OF
holding themselves against the
strong and in some respects
cruel tide of foreign
invasion. The invasion itself
is natural, just, and in accordance
with the growth of the world. But
it is thoughtful and splendid
charity that offers to equip the ma
tive with the means of standing
MP against it.

ART SALE. TO-DAY.
Opportunity to Secure Some Work
hy Mr.. Hitchcock.

An attraction that should command
the attention Of every one at this sea-
son, is the sale of paintings that takes
place this morning at the Pacific Hard
ware Art Rooms
Mr.. Hitchcock has placed before the
public collection of his works, in
Guiding examples of his later styles
and number of paintings executed in
France, during his stay there.
This exhibition stands for more than
Ia mere commercial venture. The YER
satility shown in the treatment Of a
wide choice of subjects, ranging from
the most delicate color harmonies to
the wide contrasts and vivid coloring
of the active Volcano, gives some idea
of the capabilities of the artist.
The collection should be seen by all,
and that the artist offers the works at
public sale is an added inducement
that should attract all lovers Of art.

PAULISTS' NEW HEAD
BRIEF REVIEW OF THE LIFE OF THE
SUPERIOR GENERAL.

The Last Surviving Founder of the COM
munity-Was In General Grants Class
at West Point-Extent of His Labors
Under Father Hewit's Superiorship.
The Rev. George Deshon, who was
recently elected superior general of the
missionary society of st. Paul the Apos-
tie in the state of New York, popularity
known as the community of the Paullst
fathers, TO succeed the late Very Rev.
Augustine F. Hewitt, is the last survlv-
ing founder of the community He was
born in New London, Conn, rs years
ago, of Huguenot stock. In his youth he
was sent to the West Point Military
academy, where he entered the same
class with General Grant and others Of
subsequent fame. He was graduated
with distinction and was for five years
a professor in the institution.
''It was about this time, said one OF
the fathers, "that it happened with
him, as with so many of his generation,
that the deeper thoughts of the religious
life entered his soul. He sought for the
truth and found it in the teachings OF
the Catholic church. Desiring more
perfect life, he entered the novitiate OF
the Redemptorist fathers. !"
In 1855 he was ordained, a priest

The Rev. Mr.. Fay Mills is fitting

of the little barbed arrows the ex-

and they remark that, when Mr.. Fay
Mills is dead and forgotten, the Pres

THE PRESBYTERIAN CHURCH.

among the nedemptorIsts and 1mmedl-
ately after his ordination entered upon
mission work. He remained exclusively
in this work until his separation from
the Redemptorists with the other four
missionaries, the Rev. Fathers Hecker,
Hewitt, Baker and Walworth, who Or
ganized themselves into the Congrega-
ton of St. Paul, or the Paulist fathers
AS Paulist, Father Deshon's life work
began in reality. He continued as a
missionary the labors he had undertaken
as a Redemptorist and became known
from one end of the country to the 9TH
er as a preacher and instructor of excep-
tional talent. To him fell the work of
giving the early morning instruction on
account Of his peculiar ability and his
general adaptability to the subject. AL
though an earnest preacher and able
theologian, Father Deshon has always
been man Of affairs about the Paulist
establishment, and to him is largely
due the construction of the great church
at Fifty ninth and Sixtieth streets and
Columbus avenue, together with the
surrounding buildings, all of which
were erected under his personal super
intendence
During the last years of Father Hew-
it's superiorship, by reason of his disin-
clination to interest himself in practical
affairs, his residence at the Catholic
university at Washington, and still la.
ter his feeble health, the immediate
management of the interests of the COM
munity was delegated to Father Deshon,
and his election to the office of superior
general means the initiation of no new
policy in the administration of the or
der, but the prosecution with still
greater vigor of the special works that
have been already begun. These include
the social betterment of the masses,
general parochial labors, the works in
behalf of the cause of temperance and
the scheme of missions to non Catholics,
together with the work of the printing
house connected with the establishment,
which was inaugurated by Father De-
shon.
Father Deshon, who is the third su-
perior general of the Paulists, has been
elected for a term of nine years, accord
ing to the provisions of the charter. His
predecessors were Fathers Hecker and
Hewitt. The call for meeting Of the
general chapter was made soon after the
death of Father Hewitt, and the sessions
were attended not only by the fathers
associated with the community here,
but by Fathers Wyman and Otis from
the community house in San Francisco,
where five of the priests live in charge
of the work of the Pauiists west of the
Rocky mountains, all. of whom took
part in the unanimous election to the
highest office i'll their gift of their ven-
cradle and greatly beloved associate.
At present there are 30 fathers, FL
students and Is postulants connected
with the Paulists. AS has been lately
written of them: 1.-The Paulist congre-
cation is not stagnant Not in purpose,
in numbers or in good works is it
