In this chapter the flourishing condi-

This is the symbol used in Revelation
to represent the shurches Of Christ.
Joshua and Zerubbabel. the anointed

resented under the symbols Of olive

gest UNCONVENTIONAL activities, but also

changes in the past justifies thesssuspicion
that at any time new editions of the Bible
may be offered to the public without
warning. Every man who buys Bible
cannot stop to compare it from beginning
to end with the authorized version. 1t
may interest my readers to know that
some years ago several of the bishops of
the Episcopal church made vigorous
protest against these departures from
King James's version, as mischieyous
and uncalled for Their voices had so
much weight that large publishing firms
declined kto publish these improved 90
Bibles.
Why didn't Mr.. Papineau tell the Epis-
copal convention that he suspected the
genuineness of the Bible the Maine Bible
Society was circulating?
We are glad to find in Mr.. Papineau's
explanation evidence that he is relenting
somewhat toward the Protestants. Last
year he spoke of them as "heathens of
New England and claimed that there
was no salvation outside the Episcopal
church. So it is quite condescension on
his part for which the "heathens'' should
all be duly thankful for him to pay this
much tribute to them:
We respect Protestants for being faith
full to their own conviction; we are glad
of all the good they do, although we be-
lleve our own ways are better: but we
have no respect for certain people who
pretend to further the cause of Christ by
interfering in other peoples affairs and
by trying to stir up prejudice.

while last year there was no salvation

The Rev. A. B. Papineau of Oldtown,
has published in the Bangor Commercial
an explanation of his attitude toward the
Maine Bible Society, which we reproduce
in another part Of this paper. Mr.
Papineau complains that the "self-ap-
pointed judges of his conduct have chad
recourse to gossip and insinuation;" but
really there is no foundation for his com.
plant for the whole case against Mr.
Papineau rests upon an endorsement up
on back of a report of local agent of the
Maine Bible Society in his own hand
writing which is as follows:
You must excuse me for saying to you
again that 1 do not believe in the society
you represent. know all about it; and
approve neither it's object nor some of the
society; distributes Protestant transla-
ton of the Bible, and whatever its claims
may be of being undenominational it's in
huence I know from experience is decided
ly Protestant.
1t was the publication of this endorse
ment and nothing else that brought Mr.
Papineau conspicuously before the public.
There never was particle of what might
be called "gossip or insinuation" published
in relation to him. When the matter
came up in the Episcopal convention in
this city Mr.. Papineau had chance to
explain his endorsement on the back of
the agents report but declined to do So
The explanation which he now vouchsafes
through newspaper is the first case of
real insinuation which has appeared in
this matter, for he undertakes to insinuate
that the Maine Bible Society is dis
tributing doctored King James version
of the Scriptures. He is compelled to adj
nit that the King James version which
the Maine Bible Society claims to be dis
tributing is the version accepted by the
Episcopal church, and to e1tricate him
self from the difficulty that admission puts
him in he goes on to insinuate that there
might have been changes made in it. This
can be the only purpose of this paragraph
III his explanation:
Protestants, however, have made vari-
1us changes. Somtimes they publish it
without the ApOcrypha, still calling
It the King James version. More often
they put the imprint of some Bible soci-
ETY. on the title page and leave out words
to suit themselves. l have not space here
to mention many of these changes Put
ting "immerse'' for "baptize'' will suffice
for an example Now by Protestant
Bibles 1 mean Bibles which have been
tempered with in this way. 1t is probab-
" true that some Of these changes are of
slight Importance, but the fact that
Protestant Bible societies have made

MAY PROVE 70 Be MURDER
CHINESE STEWARDS CRIME AT
WAIKIKI.

Word was received over the tele-
phone at the Police Station at 2:15
o'clock this afternoon that All Ming,
Chinese steward at the Youngs sum-
mer residence at Waikiki, had assault
ed the Chinese yard boy with chair,
inflicting injuries that it is believed
will prove fatal. Patrolmen Espinda
and Neeley were dispatched to the
scene on their bicycles, and surgeon
was sent out.
At this late hour it is impossible to
learn any particulars, except that the
Chinese had quarreled and came to
blows. The telephone message said
that the yard boys skull was fract-
ured, and that he could not live. The
tragedy occurred at the new summer
residence of the Youngs, recently con-
structed on the old Waikiki road.
