A CRITICAL TIME
DURING THE BATTLE
OF SANTIAGO.
Sick or Well. a Rush
Night and Day.

The Packers at the Battle OF Santiago
de cuba. Were. All Heroes. There
Heroic Efforts In Getting Ammuni-
ton and Nations to the Front saved
the Day.
P. E. Butler, Of pack-train No. 3.
writing from Santiago, De Cuba, on
July 23d, says: I'VE all had diarrhoea
in more or less violent form, and when
we landed we had no time to see a doc
tor, for it was a case OF rush and rush
night and day to keep the troops sup
piled with ammunition and rations, but
thanks to Chamberlain's Collie, Cholera
and Diarrhoea Remedy, We were able
to keep at work and keep our health !;
in fact. sincerely believe that at one
critical time this medicine was the in
direct saviour Of our army, for II the
packers had been unable to work there
would have been no way of getting
supplies to the front. There were no
roads that a wagon train could use.
My comrade and myself had the good
fortune to lay in supply of this medi-
cine for our pack-train before we left
Tampa, and / know in four cases 1t
absolutely saved life"

Count Okuma is happily married and
dearly loves the seclusioh OF his own

of quiet demeanor, ami proves an ad-
mirable hostess at their numerous and
ever-hospitable receptions. The lady
has many friends among the nobility
and the youth of the land. She takes
great interest in the Semmon Gakko,

her presence.

He spent seven years in the United

Japan in time to be the first manager
OF the college his father founded. He
still devotes part OF his time to teach

an interest in all things American, es.

SUNDAY SCHOOLS.
Plans for Complete United Work
of Forces,

of Forces.
About twenty superintendents and
teachers OF the various Sunday schools
OF the city met in the Y. NJ. c. A. hall
at 4:30 yesterday afternoon to con-
slider the plan of Professor Theo. Rich
ards of bringing this class of church
workers together for mutual study and
benefit. Central Union, Methodist,
Christian, Portuguese, Kawaiahao and
Kamaukapili churches were repre-
scented.
Mr.. Richards presided and stated
the objects of the meeting. 1t was de-
sired to form an Association to hold
union meetings once month for the
purpose OF comparing notes and de-
vising, II possible, better schemes for
Sunday school work. Papers would be
read at the meetings, suggestions dis
cussed and general plans adopted. All
the churches represented use the
standard lessons. 1t was therefore sug-
gested that meetings of teachers be
held once week for the study of the
lessons and the formation of a plan
of teaching, which should be general
in all the churches.
The latter scheme was unanimously
adopted, and the first meeting OF teach,
ers was called for next Friday even'ne
at the same hour and place. The fol-
lowing were appointed committee 10

organization: Professor Theo. Rich

friends and yachting acquaintances OF
Mr.. Hebron assisted. The usual i'm
portant Formally of christening was
not forgotten and Mr.. Hebron himself
was a passenger on the Gladys as she
plunged from the ways into the water.
There was cheering and general con-
gratulations and the band played
Star Spangled Banner" The Gladys
carried both the Hawaiian and Ameri-
can flags for the occasion. Refresh
ments were served to the company in
attendance.
In the San Francisco Examiner of
the Goth is this note:
The new sloop Gladys, built FOR
Capt. 7. w. Hebron of Honolulu, was
tried for the first time yesterday. The
sloOp showed herself one of the fast
est in the bay--a little tender, perhaps,
but quick as a top in her movements.
She ran away from the Truant before
the wind, but has not yet uad sail area
adjusted for the best work in beating "
There was no intention to have the
Gladys for racing. The purpose OF
Mr.. Hebron was to provide himself
with a "knockabout" fit for trips to
the Lochs or longer voyages. The
Gladys sets well out of the water, but
there Is very indication that she will
be good sea going boat.
Interest in yachting is on the in
crease here right along and there is to
be more sailing than ever before for an
| off season clear through this winter
Those devoted 10 the sport like to gel
out and smell the very freshest
breezes. Plans for yacht club, with
proper accommodations both in the
habor here and at Pearl Lochs are pro-
| crossing favorably.

Minor RECEIVES Orders.

Capt. Minor, Of the steamer Column
bia, received orders by the Alameda
from the heads of the Seattle-Hono-
lulu line to fight the libels against the
vessel to the end, and not to pay 81
for judgments unless ordered to do so
by the Supreme Court. One of the
owners will likely be down by the Aus
tralla. From the tone Of the letters TO
Capt. Minor and Mr.. Burllng it would
appear that the company Is not at all
disconnected by the suits, but proposes
TO carry out their original plan OF a
semi-monthly service.

Every one who is not Of Chinese
oirth is excusable for not knowing
what is going on in that mysterious
but fascinating empire. 1t is hard to
believe that even one Chinese can un-
derstand the course Of events. The
chief fact in its recent political history
is that the former empress, who ruled
as regent most Of the time from 1861
until 1889, has resumed the power, and
the young emperor, born in 1871, has
abdicated, or was deprived OF his au-
thority. Perhaps, also, he has been
murdered. 1t is remarkable that in
country where daughters are regarded
almost as pest, and sons are the only
children desired, a woman should have
not merely, held the virtual sovereign
ty for so long, but taken 1t back again
when she thought things were going
wrong.
