Meeting.
designations Accepted With Deer
Regret-New Appointments
and other Work.

Owing to the great amount of bust
ness to be transacted, the regular
monthly monthly meeting of the Kin
dergarten Board of Supervisors, held
yesterday, was an unusually protract-
ed one. Mrs. Hyde presided and the
usual reports were presented.
1t was with great regret that the
resignation of Miss Kellogg from the
position of Director of the Japanese
kindergarten was accepted. Miss Kel-
logg returns to her home in Berkeley
this summer, while her position will
be offered to Miss Frances Kinney,
who has just graduated from the Chi
'cago Training School.
The resignation of Mrs. VIM. G. IT.
win from the Palama Committee will
be great loss to the society, as she
is most active and interested work
er. Mrs. Irwin will not entirely sever
her connection with the association,
but upon her return will, in some 9TH
er capacity, continue her work Mrs.
w luNllClu w dS dDDOlhltu W lii MISS
Birnie's place on the same committee,
while Mrs. P. c. Jones was transferred
from the Chinese work to fill the place
left by Mrs. Irwin. Mrs. Henry Laws
takes Mrs. Jones' place on the Chi
nese Committee.
A committee for the Eva Kinder
garten was appointed, consisting of
Mrs. ]. B. Atherton, Mrs. w. ]. Low
RE, Mrs. ]. A. McCandless, Mrs. h N
Castle and Miss Margaret Hopper,
with Mr.. w. ]. Lowrie on the Advis-
DRY Board.
The reports of the financial secre-
taTy, the treasurer and the chairman
of the various committees are all par
ticularly encouraging Benson, Smith
& Co, Ehlers & Co., and Mr.. D. B.
Smith have each pledged sums to the
Business Mems Fund, amounting in
all to about $3.50 per year.
The most flourishing condition is
found in the Portuguese kindergarten,
where Mrs. Tarbell has been compelled
to limit the number of children by ad
hitting only those between and 6
years, instead of and 7, as formerly.
dergarten, however, is greatly dimin-
ished, through fear of diphtheria,
while at Palama children stay away
in order to escape vaccination. 1t is
also expected that the public school,
lately started in that vicinity, will take
away some of the pupils.
In conclusion, Mrs. Charles Day, rep
resenting the Japanese Committee,
read a touching tribute to the memory
of Mrs Henry Warehouse. Mrs. Wa
terhouse had been one of the most
earnest and efficient members of the
committee, possessing the rare power
of understanding the needs of those
with whom her work brought her in
contact, and of meeting them with
the most loving and sympathetic help.
The association felt that the place left
vacant by her could not soon be filled
by another.

SUFFERING ARMENlANS.
Subscription List Being Formed in
Their Aid.


The nations of the world are inter
esting themselves in the condition of
the helpless Armenians, sufferers be
cause of Turkish atrocities. 1t is es-
timated that in the field which can be
reached from Harpoot there are no
less than $1,000 widows and orphans.
Many of the children are helpless and
without homes, and it is proposed
turning what houses that are left
standing and untenated in the district
into houses of refuge for them.
Many widows and houseless women
have been found who are willing TO
take charge of children for the sake
of the home which will be provided for
them. Some expense viii be incurred
in collecting, distributing and support
ing the children, and a call has been
made upon the Christian nations for
aid. During this week there will be a
subscription list at w. W. Halls, who
is to send money under the auspices
of the Mission Board.

STORY OF A COLLISION.
A Schooner Runs Into the Practice
Ship Chase.

CHARLESTON IS. c., May 9. - The
United States practice ship Chase came
into port to-day and the story of her
collision with a schooner, believed to
be the Ricf ard F. G. Hartley of Bos-
ton, was told by Captain Hamlet. About
80 a. m. on Thursday, May 9th,
schooner was sighted bearing down
on the Chase, about fifty miles of this
port No attention was paid to signals,
and in spite of all efforts by the Chase
to avoid it, the vessels came together.
The Chase lost her entire headgear,
bowsprit, flying jibboom and foretop
mast and was badly jammed. The
schooner was not greatly injured. It
appears that there was no lookout on
the schooner, which was sailing before
the wind under full canvas. The schOon-
er declined to answer any question and
seemed anxious to get away.
But her anchor had been thrown over
by the shock and she was thus held.
The officers of the Chase read her name
on the stern as the Richard F. c.
Hartley of Boston.
The Chase will remain here until a
tug is sent from Baltimore for her. No
one was injured in the collision. Cap
tain Hamlet and his crew do not ap-
pear to have been in the slightest de-
gree to blame, they having done every
thing possible to avoid the accident.

another via ST. Joe to Leavenworth
and one via Hannibal and the Missouri.
Kansas and Texas Railroad for Texas
and a dining car. The train is new
throughout and presents several new
features in equipment and in construc-
ton
The platform of the baggage car has
been entirely dispensed with and the
extra lengths so gained will be used for
the storage of baggage. The vestibules
of the cars both sleepers and coaches,
are of new pattern and more space is
given to them than has been the GUS
tom heretofore All the cars were made
especially for this train, and will not
be used in any other service. The rum
ming time of the new limited train will
not be faster than that of the trains
which the Burlington has run between
Chicago and Kansas City, but the train
is finer than any the road has ever sent
out of this city before.
The party which accompanied this
train were brought back from Men
dota on a special train which broke all
existing records for fast time. The
distance from Mendoza to Western ave-
nue., seventy nine miles, was made in
seventy nine minutes, including one
dead stop, a slow-up through Aurora,
and again over mile and a half over
new grading. At one place four and

disgorged itself at the foot of the hill

Half an hour later as I was busily

WASHINGTON, May O. There is no
certainty as to the line of proceeding
in the Senate during the present week.
The Morgan Cuban resolution probably
will be taken up Monday, and it may
lead to a prolonged and spirited de-
bate. Senator Morgan is quite deter
mined to press the resolution to an is
sue, and Senator Hale just as deter
mined to prevent it's passage. Hale un-
doubtedly will move to refer the reso-
luton to the Committee on Foreign Re
lations, and an effort will be made to
enlist the friends of the Administra
ton against it, The committees will be
filled Monday or Tuesday, but as this
will be done on the basis heretofore
agreed upon there will be no friction
over the proceedings. The conference
report on the Indian appropriation bill
may cause some debate, but the prob
abilities are that the agreement of the
conferrees will be generally acquiesced
in.
The House programme of three-day
adjournments will be supended this
week. The sundry civil appropriation
bill has passed the Senate, and now re-
turns to the House for action on the
amendments. The programme pursued
when the Indian bill came back to the
House probably viii be followed in the
case of the sundry civil bill. That is,
the amendments will be considered in
the House before the bill is sent to con-
ference. There is a good deal of bitter
feeling among the House factions, which
may break out as soon as opportunity
for debate is given, and some very live
ly ortorical displays are expected. The
conference report on the Indian appro-
priation bill, also, will be ready for
consideration before the week closes.
The questions involved in the opening
of the Uncompahagre Reservation in
Utah will, of course, furnish the main
source of contention in the debate on
this report.

miles, including branches, and it's first
cost was $4,000 The sleepers were of
stone and We're laid across the track
eight feet apart. Upon rails of wood. six

A Curious VIII Case.

The Probate Court has had before it
one of those cases. plain to lawyers. but
puzzling TO psychologists, which have
never ceased to recur since Wills ex-
listed and mental capacity has been
closely studied. A shrewd man Of
business, who had accumulated a small
fortune and is perfectly able to care Of
it, makes will which on the face of it
shows no trace of infrmity in the tes-
tatOr His solicitor sees him in the
course of preparing the will, and thinks
his client entirely sane He often
meets his client after the will is ex-
ecuted, and he sees no reason to con-
slider anything seriously amiss with his
mental condition. OF one delusion-
the notion harbored by his client. Mr..
Hounsell, that he was the son of the
late Lord Onslow-the solicitor became
aware. But, later, Mr. Hounsell said
that he had forgotten about it; and
he left on his solicitor the impression
that he was sensible, shrewd, and lev
el-headed.
When, however, his papers were ex-
amined at his death, it was found that
his mind had long been honeycombad
with gross and wild delusions He
believed that he was related to the late
Lord Onslow, and he had been engaged
in VoluminOus correspondence on this
subject with members of the royal fam
lily, Prime Ministers, and public men of
all sorts He was under the impression
that he had had a quarrel with Prince
Christian and that many members Of
the aristocracy had set their minds up
on his not obtaining the Onslow estates
until he apologized. His life had been
saved, he believed. by a favorite horse
which never failed to lash out at those
who would have murdered him. His
delusions seem to have increased and
multiplied. OF Lord Salisbury. he
wrote, Il am told he is my cousin" In
another letter he remarked, Il have
been informed that 1 am related to
members of the royal family" He
penned letters to the Queen and the
Prince Of Wales asking pardon for sup
posed Offenses; and he believed that at
tempts were being made to bring about
marriage between himself and Miss
Mary Anderson.
For years, it is clear, he had har-
The record-union., 1897-05-10

bored the rankest and grossest delu-
sions. But he had kept them locked
up in his breast. Rarely were those
about him permitted to detect what
We're, it is now revealed his abiding
fantasies. We do not wonder that Sir
Francis Jeune refused to recognize the
will of Mr.. Hounsell-from one point Of
view a sensible man of business, from
another hopeless lunatic. Nor is t
to be doubted that the President did
wisely in refusing to order payment out
of the estate of the cost of executors
who had before them mass of CORES
pondence full of unequivocal marks Of
insanity. The interest of the case is
that in many respects the testator was
perfectly sane, and that the scope OF
the will was unobjectionable except So
far as it passed over relatives.-London

a few hundred yards from Bills place,
one day last summer Just as Bill hit
his finger kersmash and threw the
hammer down the hill a wagon came
rafting along the road and stopped
opposite his gate. 1t was full of young
ones of different ages and cOmplexions
