THIRTY.FIFTH PERIOD.
Day of the Knights
of PythiaS.

Today begins the thirty-fifth year
of the life of the secret fraternal and
beneficiary society known as the
Knights of Pythias In Hawaii there
are lodges of the order on this Island
Maui and Hawaii with large mem
bership on Kauai, the Knights in the
group numbering about 300. In the
United States and Canada there are
nearly half a million Knights with
many very wealthy lodges. Knights
become members Of the Uniform and
Endowment ranks, one the military
and the other the insurance feature
of the order. 1t is a society of Am
erican origin. The first lodge was es
tablished at Washington, D. c., by
men who thought it best to band to-
gether for mutual interest. Since that
time 1S6D the order has grown stead
lily in strength and good works.
Justus Henry Rathbone, who died
December 8, 1889, was the founder of
the order. He was never a member
of any other secret society, but was
a devout and faithful Christian, deep
ly impressed with the glory of God,
the divinity of the Savior and the heart
of man. His ritual was based upon
the story of Damon and Pythias. 1t
was his statement that he merely re-
duced to practice a theory that had
been operative for centuries.
Honolulu has two lodges of Knights
of Pythias, with many prominent men
of the community as members. In the
societies good fellowship obtains and
the sick and distressed are quickly re-
lieved. The knights have a hall on
Fort street and will today display the
flag of the Order.

Hail On Hawaii.

On Saturday, February 18th, there
was a severe hail storm on the road
above Keauhou, Kona, Hawaii, about
three miles from the beach. The storm
is reported to have covered an area of
about mile and half square. The
stones that fell were some of them as
large as mans fist, the greatest num-
Der however, being about the size of a
walnut These fell so thick that peo-
pie caught in it could scoop them up off
the ground in handfulso A large num-
Der were shaped like cross with the
middle rather rounded and appearing
for all the world like candy known as
acid drops Fortunately, no one was
hurt by the loose stones.

X-Ray Surgery.

Portuguese woman who had broken
off a piece of a hat pin in one of her
hands recently presented herself at the
Queens Hospital for treatment. Pur-
veyor Eckardt made two X-ray pic
lures of the member, clearly locating
the bit of pin with each exposure.
However, between the time the pic
lures We're made and the lances used,
the foreign substance moved an inch or
more and is not yet found. 1t is be-
lieved that the piece of pin will work
itself out. If it gives any further trou-
Bile another X-ray picture will be made
and the instruments of the surgeons
used at once.

ceived is used in association work. In
no instance is tax levied on a hall rent
ed at infrequent times as is the hall
here.
This matter was urged at previous
session of the Assembly, but was de-
feated. 1t is hoped that now data has
been collected on the subject the law
makers will see their way clear to COM
ply with the request of a large body of
petitioners.

SUPREME COURT DECIDES.
Question of Enforcing Forfeiture
By Re.Entry.

The Supreme Court overruled the ex-
ceptions taken to the Circuit Court de-
cision in the suit brought by Julia S.
Rice and her husband against Jona-
than Spooner. The suit was brought
to recover possession of parcel of
land decided in 1884 by the defendant
to his daughter, the plaintiff, and her
husband The defendant held that the
transfer had been forfeited inasmuch
as the agreement to pay him S. week
during his lifetime had not been kept
by the plaintiff.
The evidence showed that the de-
PENDANT had not attempted to enforce a
forfeiture by re-enetry and the Circuit
Court Judge found for the plaintiffs for
the land and 81 ,629.72 damages.

Y. Nj. C. A. Desires to Be Relieved
of Taxation.

OF IdXatlOn.
A special effort will be made at this
session of the Legislature to have Y.

group exempted from the burden of
taxation. Those Immediately identified
with the conduct of societies and most
of the friends of the associations are
heartily in favor of the extension of
this relief. This sentiment is based on
the belief that the societies are doing
a grand work for the community's
good.
h. E. Coleman, secretary of the Ho-
nolulu association, has been in cores
pondence with W. E. Lougee, of New
York City, secretary of the Interna-
tional Committe of Young Mems Chris
tan Associations on the subject of tax
alton. In reply, Mr.. Lougee encloses a
copy of the New York State act under
which all association property in use in
that State is on the taxation free list
and says that so far as the records of
his office show no building used exclu-
sively for association work is taxed in
any State of the Union. Where por-
tons of the association buildings are
rented as stores, in some States, the
part rented is taxed. There are num-
Der of special cases where even store
property is exempt with the under
