What Boys are For.

Some time ago gentleman, in ad.
dressing company of boys, said:
"Can any of you tell me what boy
is good for?"
One of them held up his hand, and
began to snap his fingers.
Said the speaker, "What is it?"
The boy replied, "a boy is a good
thing to make man out Of"
eyes, it is tremendous good thing''
was the response of the man.
This question and its answer have
put us to thinking. If a boy is good
thing to make man out of, the proper
question is, What kind of man?
That will depend on the influences
which surround that boy and the
training he has. Ifinfuences are bad,
then there will be necessary, careful
training to counteract the bad.
The boy does not understand the
danger with which he is beset. He
does not understand the pitfalls which
are in his pathway. He must, there
fore, be warned of his danger when he
is a boy, and be taught to be O man.
a royal man. He must have the edu-
cation thus afforded, and more in the
higher Christian schools if possible.
If boys are to develop into good men,
they must be wisely trained for nobil-
ity and worth in our churches and
homes. They must have the right
kind of culture---heart, mind and body
Ito make out of them the right kind
of men.

THE PUMA TEMPLE.

A curious set of inscriptions
have been discovered III the State
of Sonora, Mexico. They are in
Chinese character and have been so
pronounced by Sen Yuep, Chi
nese gentleman. resident of
Guaymas. They have been partly
deciphered and their date is fixed
about one hundred years before the
Christian era.
simultaneously with this dis
covery has appeared, in the publ
cations of the Australian Polyne-
sian Society, the account Of traces
of Chinese and Japanese civilization
in the Caroline Group dating back
a couple of thousand years.
Should the subject be pursued
fully someone may be able to throw
light upon the large mound temple
in Puma, near Kapoho. Many OBJ
servers have called attention to its
similarity to temples of the Aztecs,
and the visit and sojourn of Chi
nese in Mexico may account for the
Kapoho mound as it would be
quite possible that the returning
junks might have Aztecs on board,
and coming from Mexico, the Puma
coast of Hawaii is just where they
would be likely to make land, if
they reached the Islands at all. 1t
is not so long ago that boat from
vessel wrecked off the coast Of
Mexico made the land near Homo,
lulu of Puma.
According to F. w. Christian,
whose researches are alluded to
above, there was regular trade
between China and Mexico before
the Christian era. The voyages
were made through the Caroline
Group, but storms might occasion
ally drive the junks out Of their
route, just as Spanish ship was
driven on to the Islands, from
whose crew sprang that race Of
Hawaiians known as Ehus. The
Spanish wreck was comparatively
recent, and traces of the blood
remain, but in two thousand years
any trace Of Aztec or Chinese blood
would necessarily disappear. The
matter is Of great archaeological in
terest and should be followed up
carefully. Fernandez is dead, but
Professor Alexander remains 10
study such subject.

A WEDDING.

In a few hours we shall know
what Congress has done in the
matter Of annexation, whether it
has passed the treaty by a two
third majority, whether it has
taken Hawaii into the Union or
whether we shall have to wait till
December before we are absolutely
safe. Safe we are at the present
moment, tor the very instant the
treaty was signed we became in
the eyes of all the world a part of
the United States. Practically, at
this moment, we are part of the
Union and we shall be none the
less a part Of it even should the
Senate decide to wait, to put off
the period Of actual union for few
months.
Hawaii may be regarded as a
bride whose marriage day is yet
not definitely fixed, but who is
prepared to go through with the
ceremony whenever the signal is
given. No one will now think of
Hawaii as a possible bride, she is
pledged to Uncle Sam. Flirtations
she may have had, IN the past.

In another column appears an
interview with Edwin Dun, XIX
u. S. Minister to Japan. Mr..
Dun's views upon the situation are
those of a Democrat, whose party
has opposed and is opposing annex
alton and whose chief was not only
willing but, to he disgrace of his
republican bringing up, anxious to
restore monarchy to these Islands
Moreover Mr.. Dun has long been
resident in Japan and is imbued
with japanese piejudices. One
point Mr.. Dun brings out forcibly
and that is, that the Japanese Gov
eminent, had the Hawaiian Govern
ment remained firm in its position,
would have accepted the status quo
and have given no further trouble
